What better time to kick this off then just after the release of the excellent The Force Awakens! This is my first release in a new Mega Suite series, focusing on Star Wars, more specifically the Legends/Expanded Universe continuity. I've wanted to do a Star Wars suite series for a while, but I didn't want to take the same approach as I did with Star Trek, or else it would just be music from Episodes I-VI in order, which isn't anything new. Instead, I wanted to highlight some of the great music from the recent video games, TV shows and specials, and also give a sense of the huge tapestry that Legends wove, including books and comics. The focus will be on that new music, with music from the films used more as connective tissue. I will also be using the new-canon Battlefront's music to fill in and represent some of the novel eras, such as the New Republic. These suites will be shorter than the Star Trek ones, but there will be a lot more of them.

This suite is not the first in the series, just the first one I felt was finished. In true Star Wars fashion, I'll be pulling a George Lucas and releasing these out of order as I finish them. I'm placing them in a new playlist so you can enjoy them in order as I add them. This particular suite represents the millennia of peace following the great final conflict between the Jedi and Sith on Ruusan. In it's aftermath, the Republic was reborn, and all Sith were killed except Darth Bane, who created the "rule of two" and began a legacy that continued down to Darth Plagueis and his apprentice, Darth Sidious. This music is meant to evoke that time period where it seems that peace and progress are the norm, while secretly the Sith endure and devise their Grand Plan. Near the end of this time, Anakin Skywalker is born and Plagueis and Sidious prepare for the first major step toward in their plan - the Invasion of Naboo. You'll also hear hints of music representative of Plagueis, Sidious, Shmi Skywalker, Qui-Gon Jinn, Yoda, and the first hints of Darth Vader to come. If you don't know much about the Legends continuity, or prefer to think of this in terms of the canon continuity, it still works for the time leading up to Episode I.
