That Score (Ex GTA V Score)

Okay, let's debunk the Money Fronts update.

15 new tracks added, but here's a catch: only 1 of them is brand new, the rest are just duplicates of existing tracks (all Cayo Perico Heist ones, all 4 tracks from Agents of Sabotage and a duplicate of "Casino Heist The End" track). The only notable difference is Cayo Perico Prep A02 having an alternate percussion stem.

I will still be remixing all 15 tracks, the brand new one (called "Zsm Jnsns") will be uploaded first and the rest will feature new stems composed by yours truly and uploaded later.

That Score (Ex GTA V Score)

Little bit of info on audio in GTAV Enhanced on PC here:



1. Audio is now compressed using MP3 codec, unlike ADPCM that was used on Legacy. This resolved the issue with atrocious higher frequency artifacts that ADPCM compression caused on the Legacy version audio and also helped to save lots of GBs on players' SSDs. However, I would say that the MP3-compressed audio doesn't really sound great. It's basically the same quality it was on PS4, which wasn't exactly great to be honest. Not sure why they didn't utilize Vorbis which they did in RDR2 PC – where audio actually sounded great (it's a shame OpenIV never fixed that bug with RDR2 PC audio playback and export).


2. There is indeed an alternate Gunrunning GR9 version in the Enhanced version now. I'm pretty sure this change wasn't really intentional – looks like they just used an alternative GR9 version when packing the Gunrunning audio for Gen9 version of GTAV (it's stored in "mpgunrunning" archive, and did actually replace the old version of the track, wasn't just added on top of it). Although I can remember some talk about it was added in the Criminal Enterprises update – almost sure it was widely noticed just after this update only because it brought back players to doing Bunker missions again. Also, the GR3 unused alternative version (Gunrunning Track G3) is not present in Gen9 version, which kind of proves that DLC packs were actually changed by R* between Gen8 and Gen9 versions.


3. Big elephant in the room here: Radio and Score music sound in mono now during gameplay, which is 100% related to the audio "enhancements" they promoted this version with back on PS5/XBSX. Someone also reported that is has been the same on Gen9 consoles for all these 3 years, however, I would like someone who actually played it to report the truth here. Hopefully Rockstar will fix this issue, as well as other noticeable audio issues Enhanced PC version players are reporting.


Will also post a channel update soon. New Score will also be uploaded soon.

4 new tracks added in today's Agents of Sabotage update. Possibly composed by Nick Hook. I'll mix and upload all of them eventually.

Great news! My appeal that I sent a few days ago to YouTube was successful and the channel is monetized again now. Thanks everyone for your support and thank the YouTube team for a quick positive response!

Expect new stuff to be uploaded soon, including the track Xmas 23 by Nick Hook that is featured in the new Festive modes in GTA Online.

Today's GTA Online update brought to the game a new Media Player mix (some say it's actually a West Coast Classics extension) that is almost 40 minutes of remixed Score tracks from various DLCs. What's even more interesting, some of the composers that we previously didn't know were revealed.

The Diamond Casino Heist Score was composed by Nick Hook.
The Cayo Perico Heist Score was composed by Rampa and &ME.
The Bikers Score (excluding Deadline tracks composed by James Curd that was known for a long time) was composed by Holy Fuck.
Part of the Smuggler's Run Score was composed by Show Me the Body (as suggested by the "SMTB" prefix in the game files although the band didn't confirm that when I tried reaching them out back in 2018).

It appears that 2 tracks from the LS Drug Wars update (Clown Track and Psych Track) were composed by Nick Hook as well since they have the "NH" prefix in their filenames. Same goes for the Halloween track added with the SA Mercenaries update.

The Chop Shop update only includes one new Score, a festive-themed track composed by Nick Hook as well (again, judging by the track name prefix). I don't think I'll be able to upload it any time soon due to the demonetization situation that I mentioned in the previous post. It will be uploaded eventually though, as well as the Halloween track.

Hello everyone. The channel got demonetized today. Reason is "Reused content", the same as back in spring 2019 when shit like that happened for the first time. Back then I was able to re-apply after a little rebranding (GTA V Score → That Score), though I'm not sure if that was even necessary. Never had any copyright claims neither from Rockstar nor Take-Two, must be some YouTube thing (again...).

I'll be sending a video appeal soon, in which I'll explain why I've never reused/reuploaded/stole anything but simply remixed tracks from various games sometimes even receiving their composers' appreciation feedback and never having any negative stuff coming from Rockstar nor Take-Two. Also going to demonstrate some of the projects in my DAW to prove I remixed all that stuff myself if that's going to be of any help.

Bad thing is, I think I won't be able to upload anything until I receive any response from YouTube, so probably no GTAO's winter update music this time, at least not in the first days.

If any of you have other ideas on that matter or some specific knowledge on YouTube appeals, please contact me:

Thanks for your support in advance! I really hope the appeal will work this time as well.

Hey all. No new Score added in the San Andreas Mercenaries update unfortunately; Smuggler's Run / SSA Super Sport Series music is reused for new missions (not even Gunrunning which would mostly fit a lot better though). There is, however, a single track that's seemingly going to be used for some Halloween mode. Do I mix and upload it now, or should we wait 'till the Halloween event?

Hey everyone. It looks like we'd missed some cool stuff in the Criminal Enterprises update that came out last summer. Thanks to one of my subscribers, we found out that there was at least one new track in that update, probably exclusive to the PS5 and Xbox Series X|S version of GTA Online since it's nowhere to be found in the PC version. It plays during one of the new Gunrunning resupply missions – but could also play during all of them.

This track is a remix of the original Gunrunning track GR Track 9 composed by Oh No. No idea if there were more new tracks in the update, so let me know if you know more about this. As for obtaining the stems from the Gen9 versions of the game, I don't think it's possible at the moment.
