Soundtrack (Burnout 1)
From Burnopedia, the Burnout wiki
Burnout 1's soundtrack includes ten tracks that are heard in the various different levels of the game, plus two extra tracks for the Main Menu and Credits. Nine of the tracks would re-appear in remastered form in Burnout Paradise under different names. A list follows of the tracks used for the Races in Burnout 1, with alternate Burnout Paradise names. One track, Whiplash, does not appear in Paradise, so it does not have an alternate name.
- Nought 260/Halfway to Dreaming
- Oversteer/Lyon
- Eurorush/Rounder and Rounder
- Heart Failure/Caught on a Wire
- In Control/Free
- Dead Ahead/Exodus
- 66 Kicks/Chicken George
- Whiplash
- Downtown Drift/Like My Shirt
- Fatal Instinct/Fight or Flight
In addition to these tracks, an unreleased track called Tokyo Nights was included in Burnout Paradise. This is likely a track that was meant for a Far East course, however it was eventually cut. The inclusion of a Far East track is not surprising, because Burnout 3, Burnout Revenge and Burnout Dominator all included Far East tracks.
Each race track has a specific 'casual' and 'tragic' music track (for instance, Interstate has 66 Kicks as a casual track and Whiplash as a tragic one). Each set is played on a specific race track and it's alternate reverse counterpart. For example, 66 Kicks is played on both Interstate and Rush Hour. The song is looped when it reaches it's end, or when the player passes through every second checkpoint (even when the music track hasn't finished). When the player has crashed more than once, the tragic track is played. The tragic track also loops when it reaches it's end.
In Burnout Paradise, the tracks do not loop, but instead fully play until it finishes like every other track in the game.
