Battlezone: Rise of the Black Dogs had a MIDI soundtrack composed by Matthew Simmonds1, partially inspired by and expanding on the original. The tracks reproduced here are recorded from the original MIDI files, as they use a format that is not interpreted correctly by modern systems.

Title
A short rising fanfare played over the title screen.
Fast percussion and rapid synth bass, with slow brass and string lines. A bass string interlude half-way through introduces additional brass lines over the top.
Opens with a sharp synth sound and light brass pad, with the introduction of brass and percussion later on. Probably one of Rise of the Black Dogs' more identifiable tracks.
A plucked string bass opens the track, which builds with the introduction of several brass lines and a marching snare. The latter section of the original's track 4 with additional brass picks up in the middle and continues to a fanfare at the end.
Opens with sparse percussion and a solo string part, then builds into the latter half of track 3 from the original with the string line continuing over the top.
Based on track fifteen from the original soundtrack, with new string parts introduced part way through. Percussion drops out to make way for pizzicato strings, then resumes a slow marching beat.
Industrial percussion and string pads carry through the first half of the piece, before a synth bass and fast-paced percussion appear alongside repeating brass and string patterns.
