Under Cover of Night is the tenth piece included in the Halo: Original Soundtrack.

Overview

The music consists of a slow synth melody with a more complicated bass line interweaved. There are no drums in the music until 1:45, before which the bass provides the rhythm. After the drum beat is added, occasional chants can be heard.

The piece was primarily written by Martin O'Donnell with additions from Michael Salvatori.[1]

Appearances

The track can be heard:

Reorchestrated versions

It is reorchestrated into the following:

Trivia

  • The soundtrack appeared as an easter egg in Halo 3 on the multiplayer map High Ground. It is sometimes heard playing from the radio at the large base.
  • Under Cover of Night and its versions have almost always appeared in relation to a Keyes. The Halo: Combat Evolved appearances appear near a mention or focus of Captain Keyes. Every post-Combat Evolved appearance directly features Miranda, or invokes her (In Amber Clad). In Homecoming, the music plays in a scene where Miranda's mother appears.
