So I'm playing LEGO IJ with my wife and son last night and... wowzers, the background score on some of the levels is from Young Indy! I recognized at least one sequence from McNeely's German East Africa 1916 (played while running around the streets of Cairo)
(...some sneaky googling, and I've downloaded the audio sequences from the game as MP3...)
Holy crud... there's the music used in the Masks of Evil credits in there as well (is that McNeely or Sobel?) apparently used in the Last Crusade "Castle" scenes in the game.... and McNeely's Verdun 1916 is used in the Last Crusade "Airship" scenes in the game. There are some other tracks that are NOT from the Indy films.... possibly from unreleased Young Indy scores? (I know the 4 YIJC OSTs by heart as they were among my favorite CDs back in the days before MP3 players and I had a long bus trip to university every day, and these are NOT on them)
There are even some sequences that "trill" the distinctive Young Indy theme - sometimes missing a note. Wow. Just... wow.
The game credits don't list music composers other than "Original Indiana Jones music composed by John Williams". From the credits, it appears that most of the audio work was done by LucasArts at Skywalker Sound, as opposed to the bulk of the game design which was done by Travellers Tales.
Is anyone able to confirm? Or am I just hallucinating?
