All of us have had the pleasure to experience the Anarchy Online music ingame. The dynamically "put-together" music ingame is one of the best features of the game. While the music itself is found within the install directory as many small pieces, the game puts these pieces together to play the theme for the current location/day time/faction etc. and plays them as seemingly 1 file.

While some music might be rather well known (the Omni-1 Entertainment theme or the Victory Battle Theme), some of these musical gems are heard not so often ingame, like the Open Plains, Ocean Waves or Mountain View.

In addition to these ingame music files, Funcom has released an official Soundtrack CD with concert versions of many of these ingame themes. 2 of them have been provided by Funcom for fansites to be published. These are the OT Theme concert version and the Clan Theme concert version. Both of them are very well done and reflect the overall atmosphere of both factions.

The music files were originally put together by SoundJudgment of the website Soundpeaks.com. On this site you can now find all the tracks in MP4 and WMA 9 encoding, which - according to Sound Judgement, results in a better sounding music than ever before. Download the MP4/WMA 9 versions of the songs at Soundpeaks.com if you wish.

Thanks to SoundJudgement for creating the MP3 files in the early days of AO and thanks to the composers at Funcom, who have made exceptionally good ingame music!

To download the files, right-click on the link and select "Save target as..." and download the MP3 files to your harddrive.

While the remaining files on this page are mostly from ingame music, the ARK Theme has been specifically composed for the Funcom ARK program (volunteer Customer Service program) to show the ARKs the appreciation of their work by Funcom. The file was published on the ARK forums shortly after release, when the ARKs had a ton of petitions and abuse by players to overcome because of the bad launch of AO.
