The music in the Jak games was an essential part of my childhood. Masterclass in soundtrack.

This is one of my favourite tracks, and favourite levels, in the whole series. So peaceful and serene!

this almost sounds like the original track but slower and softer

Beautiful and soothing track. :) What kind of percussion instruments are used throughout it?

whatever game without good music is empty, is greats piece :)

Favorite Jak 2 track. The atmosphere you created with this is what made Haven Forest what it was.

Jak II: Renegade - Haven Forest (pre-console version)
