''Orbital Drop Shock Trooper'' (3:43) opens with percussion and low strings building while accompanied by piano snippets from ''Strong Silent Type'' (from the earlier track ''[[The Rookie (music)|The Rookie]]''). Strings and piano enter a heavy melody, layered by brass and woodwind fanfares. Woodwinds also break into the trembling melody from ''Strong Silent Type'', which is occasionally echoed by strings. Midway through the piece, the strings soften, and, while accompanied by soft percussion, repeat the slow and solemn melody from ''Street Sweeper'' (from the earlier track ''[[Traffic Jam]]''), though on plucked strings, even progressing into different variations using [[wikipedia:Counterpoint#First species|first species counterpoint]].{{Ref/YouTube|SJ_ay8y6GpA|Martin O'Donnell|ODST Music Inception|Y=2020|M=11|D=2}} A solo saxophone then enters with the somber melody of the second theme from ''Rain'' (from the earlier track ''[[Deference for Darkness]]''). It then repeats, accompanied by strings and woodwinds. The piano, strings, and woodwinds continue the melody together, with all instruments replacing the saxophone in playing the three-note cue grandly. The instruments return to initial heavy melody, swelling in intensity and raising registers, then plays the climatic ending together.

The version without woodwinds and high strings plays again during the final wave of Covenant at the entrance of [[Uplift Nature Reserve]]. The full version plays in the ending credits after ''From The Ashes (Reprise)''. | ||
