@6:45 Acrophobia ended with the intense loudness, because... well if you're falling, you know how that ends? BOOM. You hit the ground. Your panic exponentially increases the last couple seconds as you see the ground fast approaching. Arachnophobia? Ends with a fade-out because if you get bitten by a venomous spider, you close your eyes and slowly die from the poison. Thalassophobia's ending? You panic as you start running out of air, flailing your arms and legs around until the inevitable happens that your mouth opens and your lungs flood.
(tempting to continue the age-old tradition, but) These explanations for how each song concludes are incredible. Never could have so succinctly identified the symbolism myself, and these are so appropriate. Legitimately feeling enlightened right now.
All the phobia songs have the same drum heartbeat and arpeggiated piano notes. What's different is the sounds unique to each phobia -- falling synths for acrophobia to simulate falling, crackling for the little bitty spider legs, and muffling the whole thing to simulate being underwater.
The originals are quite a marvel of sound design, but I wonder if the developers knew what these would sound like sped up. It's quite fascinating how different the vibe is.
Dude you are a breath of fresh air. Love your reactions and your taste in gaming. You seem very elegant and smart. Omori is one of my favorite games. If you haven't played it please do yourself a favor and just do it. Such a beautiful yet heart wrenching game. It speaks so many volumes.
AHH YOUR HAIR LOOKS SO GOOD. I just woke up from falling asleep after eating dinner (it’s 1am now) and now I have this to watch/listen too!!! I still love the way you describe the music. It’s just… satisfying.. 😭
hearing the original phobia songs and them at 400% is really cool because it really shows how perspective plays with our emotions. the slow versions build tension while the sped up ones are amazing and not scary (at least to me) idk I just thought that was cool. :)
Hey, To continue in omori darker music, you should listen to "come and see". It's really disturbing, but I would describe it best as a "It's late into the night, I'm outside, going back home. And I don't think I'm alone." Also, SOMETHING is also a good one. It could have the same importance than Omori in the soundtrack. "Something sways in the wind"
If you want to hear more of the horror elements in the Omori OST, I’d recommend the tracks from the Black Space section of the game, as well as “Something”.
I like how, in Arachnophobia, you can hear the soft dinging combined with a more fuzzy background, to give the sense of soft tingling and nature combined. That really sets up the tone of Spiders.
Acrophobia: fear of heights(i have this one...cant stand heights"shudder"my feet will tingle and ill fall to my knees and ill crawl away to safety or quickly run inside the building im on and don't even get me started if its rope bridge. Here's a story for ya when i was a teenager i would go on a lot of road trips to radium hot springs nearly every summer with my family, however this time we decided to stop in Banff and we got on the gondola. I reluctantly got on we climbed higher and higher and i hated every moment of it. i just tensely sat looking down at the floor while everyone else marveled at the view i was doing fine until my older brother noticed me he started cracking jokes about the gondola getting stuck or the gondola would hit a tree causing us to fall. when we reached the highest point my stepfather though it would be funny to start rocking the gondola I'm not one to make a scene when my fear of heights kicks in so i get real quiet. after my mom told him to knock it off and stop acting like an child they enjoyed rest of the ride after we got off my mom noticed i had turned pale she wasent happy with my stepfather fear is no joke it sucks) Arachnophobia: fear of spiders(spiders slightly startle me but ill catch it put it outside or kill it depends on the size) Thalassophobia: fear of deep and open water(okay...i hate water don't like getting wet....you wont catch me on a boat on the open ocean the sea is incredibly dangerous in open water ill stick to the beach. as for lakes i don't mind swimming in them as long as not a lake with a legendary monster in it like Okanagan, loch ness or if not safe to due to other means dont know why i did this just felt like sharing lol
I like how you points out the differences in the base drum each time. In Acrophobia, it beats faster and more often because you panic as you fall. Specifically you point out how it feels like it's "approaching you" which, combined with the auditory illusion of the constantly falling pitch, gives this feeling of rapidly nearing the ground. In Arachnophobia, the bass drum is constant, getting a bit louder with the harmony at first, before fading out, as if you were being stalked by a predator and then faded away as it killed you. And finally in Thalassophobia, the drum is more constantly muffled, mixed in with shifting sounds, like the water and monsters are moving all around you, pulling you down as your vision blurs from drowning, and you fade away. Also goddamn I love what you did with the "jam sessions" haha. The violin experiments you did sound straight out of a horror movie, it makes me think of It in specific. Creepy! Makes the realization you have when you first heard the songs at 400% even funnier.
Wow. Just what your additions to the original tracks do to them is, appropriately, kinda scary. Acrophobia already represented itself beautifully, stretched notes steadily falling while the music adds and intensifies, but your accompaniment, irregularly rising and falling, steps things up to outright dizzying. If original was threatening the fall, your violin definitely made them slip. Arachnophobia was already what I consider the most outright intimidating of the three, and you just added sharp, classic creepiness into the music- some of that wasn't so different from the sound effects straight from the game used to signify fear and cause unease. Thalassophobia is a strange beast. It's dull at the start, but develops into sheer panic at the very end. Add the violin though, and the romanticized promise starts early: you're not making it to the surface. You're about drown. You're dying.
this is such a coincidence that i watched all of your omori related reactions today and then you post a new one…… how did you know??!?!?!? i am bamboozled great vids btw!!!!
First off, I have the same Resetti plush as you! :D But wow, I had no idea the phobia themes turned into such a banger when sped up! My favourite is probably Acrophobia. To me, that droning sound is more reminiscent of a loud plane flying overhead...except it feels like you're standing on that plane, looking all the way down to the earth below. Very dizzying. If I had to recommend a game soundtrack, it would be Night in the Woods'! It has so many favourites for me, and I'm a huge fan of the overall style. I hope you check it out! Great vid as always! :>
I just discovered you and I REALLY enjoy watching at your videos even if I only watched a few of them yet, you are truely emotive and talented, 'hoping you will have some more visibility on RUclips you deserve it !! Peace
So next on the list of cool songs from OMORI.... Your Catastrophes followed by Your Catastrophes -- Procession. The two songs very neatly connect with one another.
look at the terraria calamity mod ost if you havent already! most notably look at roar of the dragon and stained brutal calamity, but honestly just look( or listen would be more correct?) all of it, its all very spice!
for the sped version for thalasophobia, it kinda sounds like muffled laughter, presumably Mari's, like she's happy Sunny is drowning, like it payback for what he did edit: now i think about it, in my mind, (with the og phobia tracks), the violin kinda represents screaming or something along the lines of how the artists would represent fight or flight. just a thought though :)
hello! i really love your reaction videos and i think you would really enjoy listening to the ‘Professor Layton’ soundtrack! there’s a few games but they all share beautiful music that i think you in particular would really appreciate! :)
I just checked this video since it appeared in my suggestions... glad I decided to give it a shot! I haven't gone to check your cgannel just yet, but if you don't happen to have done it, I believe you could be interested in checking out the soundtracks of Yume Nikki? It's a 2003-ish RPG horror game that's inspired and influenced many indie games going forward. Most of the tracks are just a few seconds long supposed to loop so they're short with a few exceptions, and a select few are repeated in different areas of the game at different speeds and they hit different. There's also a 2018 reimagined 3D Yume Nikki game, and while I recommend trying the original first, you might find it interesting as well.
Ok that was good once again. And now, I'm suggesting a little experiment : Play both routes of Omori, and then redo reactions videos about the same musics you reacted before. You'll see, the difference will surprise you.
I mean, when faced with fear, everything seems to slow down right? The music sounds scarier when slowed down but it's more frantic when it's sped up. Maybe could show how Omori found everything scary and is afraid, but the moment he calms down, it's not really that scary anymore?
@6:45 Acrophobia ended with the intense loudness, because... well if you're falling, you know how that ends? BOOM. You hit the ground. Your panic exponentially increases the last couple seconds as you see the ground fast approaching. Arachnophobia?

You hit the ground the same way Mari did
Close your eyes???
@@Sunnyflower179 you’ll be here soon
(tempting to continue the age-old tradition, but)
These explanations for how each song concludes are incredible.
Never could have so succinctly identified the symbolism myself, and these are so appropriate.
Legitimately feeling enlightened right now.
Wish I hadnt read that last one. Easy to say when its not your phobia
Something I find cool is the fact that in acrophobia (which is the fear of heights) the pitch keeps "falling"
Edit: clothes
DUN DUN DUN
Just like Mari😁
@@GodOfTheJGCU SHSHSHHSHSHEHSHHHHHHSHSH
@@GodOfTheJGCU gfevhsvssgcgwhzg
Just like Omori at the end 😍
Who knew fear and trauma could be such a bop? :D
I'm convinced the artist that made the phobia themes made a song, then split it up into 3, and made them all a bit different
All the phobia songs have the same drum heartbeat and arpeggiated piano notes. What's different is the sounds unique to each phobia -- falling synths for acrophobia to simulate falling, crackling for the little bitty spider legs, and muffling the whole thing to simulate being underwater.
The originals are quite a marvel of sound design, but I wonder if the developers knew what these would sound like sped up. It's quite fascinating how different the vibe is.
I think the 400% sped up is how the composers originally composed the piece
I assume they made it sped up first and made it slow later
Dude you are a breath of fresh air. Love your reactions and your taste in gaming. You seem very elegant and smart. Omori is one of my favorite games. If you haven't played it please do yourself a favor and just do it. Such a beautiful yet heart wrenching game. It speaks so many volumes.
AHH YOUR HAIR LOOKS SO GOOD. I just woke up from falling asleep after eating dinner (it’s 1am now) and now I have this to watch/listen too!!! I still love the way you describe the music. It’s just… satisfying.. 😭
Now this is what visual people observe when they see a commentary about a song huh.
hearing the original phobia songs and them at 400% is really cool because it really shows how perspective plays with our emotions.
the slow versions build tension while the sped up ones are amazing and not scary (at least to me) idk I just thought that was cool. :)
funny how all the imagery you're describing is in the game. once again you're on-point with your interpretations
Hey,
To continue in omori darker music, you should listen to "come and see".
It's really disturbing, but I would describe it best as a "It's late into the night, I'm outside, going back home. And I don't think I'm alone."

I hope you do a play through someday I’d love to see your reaction to the full game
The phobia tracks are some of my favorites, especially the version that was speed up at the end
I like how, in Arachnophobia, you can hear the soft dinging combined with a more fuzzy background, to give the sense of soft tingling and nature combined. That really sets up the tone of Spiders.
And later, in the 400% version, it sounds more akin to buzzing and chirping. Really nice.
It’s so ominous and fascinating, how the opening of Acrophobia sounds like α plane about to crash.
6:49 Is it just me, or does this note sound like the noise spiders make in omori?
Acrophobia: fear of heights(i have this one...cant stand heights"shudder"my feet will tingle and ill fall to my knees

aaaaa the acrophobia jam session was so good!
also I'm glad you listened to the sped up ones too, they are surprise bops for sure
Sincerely,never really tought too much about the normal verion of the phobias,so,thanks for making me think about them!
Really love your analysis of these songs! Love how honest you were with the underwater one too
I love it, even when sped up, still sounds good!
I'm still waiting for "Friends." :)

LISTEN TO FAN MADE PHOBIAS!!!
(Preferably Somniphobia, Chrono phobia, and plakidiophobia, PLUS their sped up versions)
You should listen to 'I made a banger using OMORI phobia and Porter Robinson mashup' by Airneko.
I just discovered you and I REALLY enjoy watching at your videos even if I only watched a few of them yet, you are truely emotive and talented, 'hoping you will have some more visibility on RUclips you deserve it !! Peace
The experimental jam session was super cool also
Love your reaction of Omori’s music !
in the first song my heartbeat even seemed to slow down._.
So next on the list of cool songs from OMORI.... Your Catastrophes followed by Your Catastrophes -- Procession. The two songs very neatly connect with one another.
Omori phobia x fellow feelings & goodbye to white space is a really good remix to go check out
Why is it actually kind of a banger at 4x speed bro. That's insane.
look at the terraria calamity mod ost if you havent already! most notably look at roar of the dragon and stained brutal calamity, but honestly just look( or listen would be more correct?) all of it, its all very spice!
hey, i really love your dark ambient playing at 6:42. thanks for mentioning how it was done in the caption
You should really do Choo-Choo Charles, it's mostly like two songs but they're amazing
I have a question, have you played/started to play Omori yet?
I'm early!! I'm so happy that you're listening to Omori music (:
who knew trauma was a bop
6:49 sounds like A scream while falling down smth tall..and omori fans YALL know what I’m Refrencing towards..
Following order I think Omori black space ost is next
for the sped version for thalasophobia, it kinda sounds like muffled laughter, presumably Mari's, like she's happy Sunny is drowning, like it payback for what he did
edit: now i think about it, in my mind, (with the og phobia tracks), the violin kinda represents screaming or something along the lines of how the artists would represent fight or flight. just a thought though :)
hoooly shit i love your approach to acrophobia
hello! i really love your reaction videos and i think you would really enjoy listening to the ‘Professor Layton’ soundtrack! there’s a few games but they all share beautiful music that i think you in particular would really appreciate! :)
im just gonna start slowing down random club music

the acrophobia song plays when you fight 'something'
Oooh. 22 seconds in and I already got a bit teary eyed from fear

hes back AGAIN- how many times can chat convince this man to listen to bops from a psychological horror game?
Ok that was good once again.
And now, I'm suggesting a little experiment : Play both routes of Omori, and then redo reactions videos about the same musics you reacted before. You'll see, the difference will surprise you.
YES. THE OMORI MAN
I mean, when faced with fear, everything seems to slow down right? The music sounds scarier when slowed down but it's more frantic when it's sped up. Maybe could show how Omori found everything scary and is afraid, but the moment he calms down, it's not really that scary anymore?
Hi
is that an undefeatable reference on the description?
I was going to say that you should listen to the speed up version and then you do.
if you speed up these songs you get edm
edit: who knew edm could be so scary?????
Hey!
Yooo
Hahaha 💀💀💀💀
I love this game 💀
i feel like the normal version are you being the victim while the sped up versions are you being the scary thing, right?
I taught its a women
