* "[[https://warframe.bandcamp.com/track/gauss-redline-from-warframe Redline]]", the song used in the Gauss Prime trailer, has been praised for deviating from the more moody pieces usually heard in Prime Access trailers in favor of fast-paced, intense Drum & Bass mixed with rock, fitting the energetic personality of the Gauss Prime who we see wreaking havoc on the Jupiter installation.

* "Whispers in the Walls" has a section where [[AndNowForSomeoneCompletelyDifferent you briefly play as Arthur]] on New Year's Eve 2000. The change is scored by the first time licensed song in ''Warframe'': Music/NineInchNails' "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G4lTMOmH8Dw Into the Void]]", a dark, yet groovy IndustrialRock song that's perfect for the gritty urban setting of the chapter.

* The soundtrack to the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqlicgmjFUE Gauss Prime]] trailer has been praised for deviating from the more moody pieces usually heard in Prime Access trailers, fitting the energetic personality of the Gauss Prime who we see wreaking havoc on the Jupiter installation.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrQtsLVa504 "This is What You Are"]] is the main theme of the Tenno and captures the essence of what the theme of a Heavenly Emperor should be, sounding both regal and elegant yet bold and commanding through its use of Japanese string instruments and powerful drums. The OneWomanWail and the childlike EtherealChoir that do a call-and-response routine throughout the song also serves as the {{Leitmotif}} of the Operators. The song's main melody can also be found in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECKZt6_hXKA "The Second Dream"]] when your Operator first comes out of the Reservoir on Lua, and the drum solo that appears toward the end also shows up in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uylZ7Hnk60I "Wretched Things"]] when your Warframe breaks the War Sword and stops Hunhow during The Second Dream's climax.

* With the Corpus Ship Tileset rework came [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jZtHXK--0E a whole]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jZtHXK--0E suite of]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d4IdgjV8TSU new music]] to accompany the new visuals. Many of these new tracks incorporate leitmotifs heard in the original tileset. None of the new tracks would be out of place in a ''Franchise/DeusEx'' game; all of them are hauntingly beautiful, relying on cold, melodic synths that play together like a well-oiled machine.

** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAL7A9v4KY8 final boss theme]], the combat track to the Narmer Ambient, uses wind chimes and choir to create something befitting of one of the Seven.

* ''Veilbreaker'' brings us [[https://youtu.be/JmgQ-0BT1LQ?t=21 "Final Stand"]], one of the combat themes of Break Narmer missions and Archon Hunts. Using similar instrumentation to "Hybrid Abominations" but with a stronger melody and driving percussion, it serves as a fittingly intense backdrop for both Kahl's incursions into Narmer territory and the Tenno's clashes with the newly-empowered Archons.

** The Archons theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bLNrhHFbCQ "Hybrid Abominations"]], combines a Sentient motif with synths and vocals into a tense and unnnerving experience as you face Erra's champions.

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L50II6zJy9U For Narmer]], the third song with vocals, is a haunting and melancholic piece sung by the Solaris as they now slave away for the glory of Ballas. It really hammers home that [[TheBadGuyWins Ballas and Erra have won]].
** As you leave Fortuna and enter the Vallis, you are greeted by the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GoCOfiGiQpk Narmer ambient track]]. For all its beauty, the New Wars leitmotif immediately conveys the bleakness of this new order.

!!The Game

[[folder:The New War]]

** The second missions [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2VI4fCOg64 combat track]] turns the Corpus industrial sounds into a piece both oppressive and heroic, as you watch a lone man face impossible odds.

** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bLNrhHFbCQ Archons theme]] combines a Sentient motif with synths and vocals into a tense and unnnerving experience as you face Erras champions.
** The ambient in the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRwfGxkmgoo Tower of the Unum]] sells it as a place of significance for the enslaved Ostrons. The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qKkQPEsZzA8 combat track]] then turns up the intensity as you race to the tower top.
** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwdnrCBRDTA Murex ambient]] is almost mournful, mixing ''Sentient Tombs'' with ''The New War''s instruments. Although encountered at a prior point, it rises again into prominence when you and Erra race to stop Ballas, and all the while Praghasa comes apart around you.

!!Fan Music
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNU4owwJugM "Codex"]] is a beautiful and haunting song that peers into the mind of the Operators and tells us exactly what they would say if they could answer Ordis' question: "What are you thinking about?"
* Joey Zero's song [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2IthRNs129Q "Dream A Dream"]] serves as a love letter to the game's title Warframes in each verse and a love letter to their Tenno Operators in the chorus. The melody is regal and inspiring, and serves as a symbol of the Tenno's status as {{Hope Bringer}}s for the Origin System. Finally, as it closes, it includes the parting words of Archimedian Margulis before her death: "Dream, not of what you are: but of what you want to be."
* [[https://youtu.be/XTXXrQRPqFE "Dream Again"]] by Music/MiracleOfSound. Rather than take the more somber route many fan-songs take, "Dream Again" is instead a powerful and fast-paced rock anthem about how the Tenno now fight to defend what's left of a once-great empire so that they can finally see an end to all of the fighting, and [[TitleDrop dream again.]]
-->I dream of towers in a world consumed, a void in the sentient sky/I dream of fissures across the moon, leaves of the Lotus rise.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KG2Q4XmRtxo Warframe 80's Action Theme]], the winner of the third Tennotunes music competition. It's both awesome and just plain ''dumb'' in the most hilarious way. Rebecca and Megan would simply ''not stop laughing'' during Prime Time [=#209=]. [[https://youtu.be/x7uMDdzv408 And Mashed animated this.]]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LgmCWOta0Hk A Tenno's Dream]] from Music/JtMusic is an incredible blend of their usual BoastfulRap, but also has a wonderful chorus, where the music switches to a more melancholic and hopeful piece.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_rBGCab2ak We All Lift Together (Epic Metal Cover)]]. As one commentator summarised it: "The original one is while the Solaris United are slaving away in secrecy. This one is for when they break free and stand up to Nef Anyo with the support of the Tenno behind them."

** As you leave Fortuna and enter the Vallis, you are greatet by the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GoCOfiGiQpk Narmer ambient track]]. For all its beauty, the New Wars leitmotif immediately conveys the bleakness of this new order.

* The New War saw the release of ''Warframe'''s third song with vocals, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L50II6zJy9U For Narmer]], a haunting and melancholic piece sung by the Solaris as they now slave away for the glory of Ballas. It really hammers home that [[TheBadGuyWins Ballas and Erra have won]].

* Update 30: Call of the Tempestarii, focuses on the titular GhostShip, and brought with it a frigging PirateSong, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EtOAaK19bA Sleeping In The Cold Below]]. Not only is it one of the few songs with vocals during warframe, it accompanies an epic (if somewhat {{Mind Screw}}y) battle where Sevagoth's Shadow duels an army of Corpus.

* During [=TennoCon=] 2018 DE showed a preview of the new Venus zone in their upcoming Fortuna content patch. And how did they do that? [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPTCq3LiZSE With a Chain Gang song.]]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPTCq3LiZSE We All Lift Together]] plays when entering into Fortuna. It starts off with a catchy whistling tune before the song goes into a beautiful chorus about uniting and working together as one, describing the situation of the Solaris in Fortuna having to unite with one another in order to survive. It's a very fitting song for the Solaris rebellion.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LgmCWOta0Hk A Tenno's Dream]] from Music/JtMusic is an incredible blend of their usual BoastfulRap, but also has a wonderful chorus, where the music switches to a more melancholic and hopeful piece.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vR3bl4hbYxw "The Witches Lair"]] is the {{Leitmotif}} of the Grineer Queens and blends both the cruel, brutish industrialism of the Grineer's motifs with the eerie, pristine beauty of the Orokin's motifs to create a regal and horrific piece of music entirely appropriate for your adventures aboard the Kuva Fortress, whether you're confronting the Twin Queens during The War Within or simply meandering about.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eFCa2L-rS8s Profit Taker]] is the login theme and the theme that plays during the final parts of the Vox Solaris quest after the Fortuna update. The theme really gives spacey and futuristic vibes with the electronic techno instruments that play in the theme. And during the final parts of Vox Solaris, this theme starts playing when the Tenno helps the Solaris United rebellion fight against Nef Anyo and the Corpus enemies. The theme really sets the mood of rebellion and triumph in Fortuna.
