Episode V of the "Commander Keen" hexalogy and the second episode of "Goodbye, Galaxy!" has many more tracks than the previous game had, which makes for a less repititve soundtrack that's no less lighthearted than that of "Secret of the Oracle." Among the few exceptions is the music for the final level, "Quantum Explosion Dynamo," which is a short arrangement of "Mars, the Bringer of War" from Gustav Holst's "The Planets." This was done at the request of the game's creator and designer, Tom Hall, and it's definitely a fitting track for a final level. This pack and the rest of the packs for the second half of the "Commander Keen" hexalogy were created at the request of RichterEX2. I did so by using imf2vgm to convert the IMF files to VGMs, and then hex-editing the first command of each VGM to change it to a "Waveform Enable" command (which the driver performs when starting up but is not done by imf2vgm). The loops may sound a bit weird, but that really is how they loop in the game. The tracks are named and arranged in this pack according to the game's track list at the Videogame Music Preservation Foundation. The names for the first fourteen tracks are confirmed to be the official names by Bobby Prince himself, according to that site. It also includes three unused tracks, "Rock Me, But Don't Stone Me," "I Scream" and "Jazz Me," the first of which is included in the data files but never played, and the second two of which were included in an archive supplied by co-programmer John Romero. The tracks have been set to loop, as they were probably meant to. "Jazz Me" in particular is an early version of "Almost Out of Breath," which is used in the "Security Center" level. Enjoy!
