This was uploaded by a youtube user called WarmOddities91 who claimed to have had it from Unreal beta he found on a russian site. Additionally, a guy called Crash-Headroom has put up in 2016 didn't know about it until like few months ago) an album of Unreal Beta tracks, also including this track.
link edit: had to edit this because it turned it into automatic bandcamp link that didn't function
Now what's interesting about this is that after doing some searching around, it turns out he is also the player "Crash" and it looks like he uploaded the beta on some obscure russian forum that is now dead. I don't know if he really speaks russian as well as english, but I don't know much about him, but he could have used a translator too. Still, I did find he has an account on another russian site, not related to the dead forum.
And another thing is that I happen to know that a certain member of this forum handed to him years ago that elusive early 1996 beta of Unreal to be Crash's responsibility of releasing it. Well, it seems he's gone for months now so I am making this thread to make an appeal to the person who shared it originally with him.
Of course that beta couldn't have had umx track but its possible Crash provided a conversion of the track into the umx format which was then ripped by warmoddities. He doesn't have that beta anymore either btw he has made that clear, he only ripped the music and after a while when he got a new machine or something he didn't bother saving the beta itself so it's now lost.
So for the sake of all the beta preservation, please come forward with this. It was already shared and I assume that Crash had this child3 file exactly from that 1996 beta that was shared with him.
But now it looks like only few people on that obscure site have ever downloaded it and for some reason Crash didn't post it anywhere in the Unreal community itself.
EDIT: I also have an answer to his question about the other music obviously....but I couldn't reach him at all. So.....
