| ==Overview==
| | {{DEFAULTSORT:{{PAGENAME}}}}[[Category:Userboxes]] |
| ===Released===
| |
| ''Released'' (2:20) starts with a single low note, followed by a section of percussion. A layer of high strings joins in with suspense, followed by some digital sound effects. The choir then enters, singing the main melody of ''[[Impend]]'' from ''[[Halo 2]]'', albeit in a slower tempo. The soft drums and strings return as accompaniment. The vocals fade out, leaving the drums. The piece plays at the start of the level, as [[John-117]], [[Avery Johnson]] and [[Thel 'Vadam]] are walking through the jungle, and continues throughout the first combat encounter.

| ===Wild Life===
| |
| ''Wild Life'' (1:02) begins with low strings building tension, before the drums once again become the dominant instrument. The slow drum beat gradually accelerates, soon replaced by a faster and louder tempo. It ends abruptly. The piece plays after the area where [[Reynolds]] is being interrogated by a [[Jiralhanae Captain]], as John-117 and 'Vadam make their way towards the river. This track was later reused in the ''[[Fireteam Raven, Reporting In]]'' trailer advertising [[Series 6: Raven|Series 6]] of ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]''.

| ===Another Walk===
| | __NOEDITSECTION__ |
| ''Another Walk'' (1:58) transitions into a percussion part with a more relaxed beat, characterized by a snare drum. The choir then joins in with the melody of ''[[A Walk in the Woods]]'' (alluded in the name of the piece), with the percussion beat playing throughout. It ends with a cymbal clash. The piece plays at the river encounter, after the [[Pelicans]] are shot down by [[Banshee]]s.

| ==Production notes==
| |
| According to [[Martin O'Donnell]], ''Another Walk'' was nearly cut because an executive producer did not like the use of snare drums.{{Ref/Twitter|MartyTheElder|1737928731245863208|Martin O'Donnell|Quote=It’s funny the little things you remember. The Walk in the Woods section of Released (Sierra 117 Part 1) was almost cut. I argued with the executive producer about it and I kept it in. He didn’t like the sound of the snare drum, said it sounded like a mistake. I said it was purposely punky and he was wrong. That wasn’t the only time I had to fight for music.|D=22|M=12|Y=2023}}
