Benny Smiles - Moonlight (feat. Niamh Farrell)
This really does remind me of a score I might hear in a Walter Hill movie, or something composed by James Horner. Definitely similar to the themes from 48hrs, Red Heat, and Commando. Not sure if that was the intent, but if so it's an excellent homage to those films and that time.
Such a beatiful song, feels so different from everything else in Hotline Miami but fits perfectly all the same. Thank you for the music
my fav music
I can't stop hearing it over and over again. Thanks!
First started listening to this masterpiece in 2020, 4 years ago already. I was going about my final year in school and suddenly came to a screeching holt when lockdown was announced. My future was uncertain and I was unsure of who I was, and what I was going to do with my life. I started to go for long walks and (very briefly) went for morning runs, just around my village to keep me active during the first lockdown. I remember walking around and staring across the fields, with this blasting through my ears in my AirPods. Still listen to it frequently now! One of my all time favourite songs. Thank you Benny, truly an amazing track for me and so many others.
Considering that HLM2 had a cut alternate ending that depended on Evan Wright's choices through his levels: speaking to biker, choosing to continue writing his book, maybe not entering rage mode, and playing Abyss - resulting in an alternate dialogue with the bums where he'd realize that 50 Blessings were behind the masked maniac hits on the Mafia, using it as an eventual pretence to start a nuclear war. This would've been a nice alternative track for the alternative ending credits (even being a bit of a double entendre - as this alternate "good" ending would never be canon as it depended on Jake surviving Withdrawal, and we know retroactively from Hot & Heavy in Hotline 1 that he didn't - therefore making the alternate ending the "bad ending" because it could never happen canonically) Alas Dennis and Jonatan made the choice to gut this alternative ending; probably as a full measure to prevent any Hotline Miami sequels. Of course we all know by now this track was submitted AFTER their early 2014 music submission deadline; and we don't know if this alternative ending had been cut by that point or not.
Is it just me or does this song perfectly fits for a summer day or at least a day when you can rest?
🥰🥰

Idk why this only just recently showed up in my reccomended but now that it has, I want to say that I absolutely love your song in Hotline Miami 2. Hotline Miami 1 and 2 are my favorite games, and their music is a huge factor for that. Your song has always felt different than the other tracks to me since it sounds almost sentimental and triumpant and less crazy drug fueled 80s disco ravey like the other ones do. That being said, it still has that special something I can't describe that perfectly mixes with HLM gameplay to make you feel like a total badass. It really fits well in the game while also feeling unique af. It made the level it accompanies one of my favorites. Greatly appreciate your work.
Finally getting around to playing Hotline Miami 2 after all these years and this track stood out immediately. Soooo good
🥰🌻
Ohh yeah oohh yeah
This is my safe place.
This is probably the best song to come out of Hotline Miami.
But in the end I'm like -ACK!
I like biys
Nesesitamos un remix de hotline miami theme urgentemente es demasiado buena con su version de piano
For me, this song is a comforting reminder that life, even when it gets tough, will never stop being beautiful.
This song makes me feel like I’m gonna make it in life
Absolutely love this
This will forever be a mark on human society... i message of familiarity and nostalgia but also simultaneously... change...
euphoria theme:
Actually, it doesn't matter if you turn it on in Miami or Hawaii, it still fits well, that's one of the magical aspects of this amazing track.
but it doesnt fit on San-Francisco cutscene)
@@Dummiest_bit да нет, вполне подходит и там, если в определённый момент включить)
That`s just cool.Thanks for song,sir!
8 years later and this musical legend is still replying to comments.
Fucking masterpiece of a song.
This does put a benny smile on my face
This is too good i like it so much
Man you best! Best of best song for levels Beard
This song gives me hope in times of uncertainty
Mesmerizing tune boyssss

Beard's levels were the only ones where I felt I was playing the hero.
What about Evan?
I'm buying myself a chicken mask.
oh no please dont talk about smth guilty
"Do you like hurting other people?"😁
Best song in the game
It feels good... Very good... Especially, when you drive in the night through your city
Benny, you're a genius! This is a masterpiece! Thank you for creating this. 🙂
Absolute banger of a song, and surprisingly makes great ambience when you're either browsing social media, doing homework, or even sleeping. Yes, I fell asleep to this song on repeat, and I regret nothing. Each fuck given separately. Batteries not included.
one of the best electronic/synthwave songs of all time
Best producer ever!
epic game with epic sound track
I listen to this song a lot, but I think one of the best and most appropriate times was after I'd had like 3 different emergencies happen in a span of a week, and I had to go negotiate for a payrise with my boss amid all of that. He gave me a 10% raise and I drove home blasting this song on repeat.
God, that ending... It's magical.
It’s like I grew wings flew as high as I could and floated among the clouds as the sea is waving on my back… Or at least that’s I feel.
What have we done? We destroyed something beutiful
