| '''One Way Ride''' is the thirteenth track (Disc 2 Track 4) in ''[[Halo 3: ODST Original Soundtrack]]'', and plays in the ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'' campaign level ''[[Kikowani Station]]''. It is composed of ''Borrowed Time'' (0:00-1:49), ''Anywhere But Here'' (1:49-3:18), ''The Calm Before'' (3:18-4:36), and ''Let it Burn'' (4:36-6:48). | | '''One Way Ride''' is the fourth track from the second CD included in the [[Halo 3: ODST Original Soundtrack]]. It contains the tracks ''Borrowed Time'', ''Anywhere But Here'', ''The Calm Before'', and ''Let It Burn''. |
|
| |
|
| ==Overview==
| | The track takes place during the final flashback level, ''[[Kikowani Station]]''. |
| ===Borrowed Time===
| |
| ''Borrowed Time'' (0:00 to 1:49) is a soft and slow-tempo rhythmic percussion with twinkling effects. It plays in repeat. The piece plays during the opening cinematic, as [[Alpha-Nine]] arrives at [[Kikowani Station (location)|Kikowani Station]] to find it flooded.
| |
|
| |
|
| ===Anywhere but Here=== | | ==Trivia== |
| ''Anywhere but Here'' (1:49 to 3:18) opens with synth notes and digital chimes before percussion enter. The percussion is subdued and muted, then slowly builds up in higher tempo, joined by snare drums and high strings. The piece plays when Alpha-Nine first acquires the {{Pattern|Ru'swum|Phantom}} and continues into the first tunnel section. The in-game version features louder percussion near its end.
| | *Unlike other day time level soundtracks, this soundtrack has a quieter mood as the level it plays in takes place at night. |
| | | *The final musical segment of the soundtrack, ''Let it Burn'', is a direct quote from [[Dutch]] regarding the [[Type-47B Scarab|Scarab]] guarding the final door in the level. |
| ===The Calm Before===
| |
| ''The Calm Before'' (3:18 to 4:46) features synth notes playing the brass melody from ''Street Sweeper'' (from the earlier track ''[[Traffic Jam]]''), albeit at a much slower tempo. High strings fade in near the end. The piece plays when [[Edward Buck]] enters a tunnel on-foot because door had lost power.
| |
| | |
| ===Let it Burn===
| |
| ''Let it Burn'' (4:36 to 6:48) features the crisp and rhythmic percussion (first heard in ''Block by Block'' from ''[[Neon Night]]'') gradually getting louder. Strings enter with a two-part heavy melody. The percussion and strings continue to hold the melody until the end, where strings fade out and are replaced by synth effects. The section with strings plays when Alpha-Nine encounters a {{Pattern|Deutoros|Scarab}} at the final door, while the section with synth effects play in the ending cinematic.

| ==Production notes==
| |
| *Unlike other flashback level soundtracks, this soundtrack has a quieter mood as the level it plays in takes place at night. | |
| * The name ''Borrowed Time'' alludes to [[Kojo Agu|Romeo]]'s critical condition in the opening cinematic, during which the piece plays. | |
| * The name ''Anywhere but Here'' is a direct quote from [[Michael Crespo|Mickey]] in the opening cinematic of the level ''[[NMPD HQ]]''.
| |
| * The name ''Let it Burn'', is a direct quote from [[Taylor Miles|Dutch]] when the player chooses to destroy the Scarab guarding the final door in the level.
