Theme tunes

Over the years the EVE theme music on the startup has changed with each major patch. All of the music that was used before was never used again, but I think some of the theme tracks were actually pretty good. I always remember Shiva because it was a pretty big patch and generally a good time in EVE. But my favourite was definitely the first, Stellar Shadows, from the original client. Loved that atmosphere.

So, if you have a moment to listen while doing your carebear mining; here are the various themes to jog your memory!

Stellar Shadows (2003) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0g21O8LMTD0
Shiva (2004) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_UTUuyXD4c
Revelations (2006) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XtdvrlwDjqo
Trinity (2007) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbDdowk025g
Empyrean Age (2008) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bPSmWdcXHs
Quantum Rise (2008) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcUpmuab ... re=related
Apocrypha (2009) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cq--Eay9Uo (Best EVE patch IMO)
Dominion (2009) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOyIPWWSmDw
Tyrannis (2010) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZtnRWlSgws
Incursion (2011) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbzZijBuJoA
Incarna (2011) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bjw-v71vHgU (worst EVE patch IMO..)

Wait, what? Stellar Shadows sounds almost identical to the campaign ambiance in Metroid Prime: Hunters. I recognized the song as soon as it started and I was not around for Stellar Shadows at all. Unless it's still in the game somewhere and that's why it sounds familiar

I think Quantum Rise is my favorite (music, not patch).

Shocking. (Somebody had to say it.)

I haven't even heard the Incarna music yet. The only one that really stuck with me was Dominion's, I think.

I too love Shiva; it was what played in Cold War when I first picked it up.
