Such a surreal song, it goes great with the hypnotic otherworldly lunarians. The harvesting of gems feels like an elaborate religious ceremony and is so creepy, yet you can’t help but feel drawn in.
you feel like it's creepy and otherworldly but it's really just a play on Balinese Gamelan music which you're not familiar with because you were born and raised in western cuture. i feel the same way though
they aren't really "otherworldly", infact, they are human spirits -- EVERY sentient creature (specifically Gems, Admirabilis and Lunarians/Moon People) in the universe of Houseki no Kuni is composed of humans (remains) and underwent the process of evolution on their own.
I started this anime with quite the skepticism, I didn't know anything about it before starting it and the only reason why I watched it was because it was labeled as a mistery anime and I was running out of things to watch from this genre. After finishing it I felt pretty mad and only because this is such a hidden gem that deserves a LOT more the recognition than it has. I haven't enjoyed an anime series like HnK in YEARS. I really hope that it gets a second season.
Wow it is one of the mosy disturbing songs I have ever heard tho, it really doesn't do anything. The sounds in 0:18 are weirdly harmonious that it feels just not right. And I LOVE IT
Gamers In Hell I just finished reading the manga to the last chapter and OMG it is really amazing. The story is very unique. which they will continue the anime.
@@petrakurnia6772 yeah lol, I know sjdjskkss (w juga indo) But like, it'll be hella different if we hear this and then some weird black hole appeared in the sky and then they came out 😶 that's why I wouldn't be surprised, it's 2020 afterall 😀
The theme is definitely eerie and includes elements used in Tense/Horror soundtracks. The contrast created by the sudden bizarre, somewhat uplifting melody does the job well, and the instruments make this even more unsettling. That build up and the hard-to-describe tribal/folkloric atmosphere is like a ceremony for a sacrifice. Which hey, it's basically a theme about moving statues hunting down the protagonists on a regular basis, what's not creepy about that? From the rhythm to the sounds themselves, everything was designed to make you feel anxious, and it does a good job at it if you ask me. It's a bit entrancing, fitting the Lunarians and their dancing perfectly. This track is really good and the most memorable alongside Cinnabar's if you ask me.
Dude I felt so asdfghjkl when I heard the Gamelan here Amaze Despite the fact that the tuning is closer to a Major scale in sound the way the strings complete the chord makes it eerie while still depicting the bright aura of the Lunarians It gives off this mystical, mysterious and eerie vibe
this called "gamelan" typical regional and culture musical instrument from Indonesia. also when "gamelan" music playing usually describe for mystical things
I couldn't imagine how mind blowingly obliterated I would have been seeing this anime as a kid. These Scenes genuinely encapsulates the unworldly feeling to new heights pure brilliance was this ost. This show will undoubtedly live on.
I'm not too sure but this sounds like traditional bali music, the bells part. And even the lunatians look like they're dressed in traditional bali clothing. I'm not from bali but the look and music does look familiar in some way.
Hearing this is like hearing Death's whistle from Puss in Boots because it makes you feel FEAR in a situation you didn't expect it to even play, and you connect it with the threat appearing with it after listening to it several times. I instinctively went "oh shit" when the sunspot soundtrack played while Phos was adjusting to their new alloy arms.
I need to rewatch houseki now just too see the scenes where the sunspots show up because i remember when i first started watching it i got chills, this music is js so good omg
It's a dated reference for most, but those who have played Secret of Mana (aka Seiken Densetsu 2) will recognize an eerie, discordant tone that resembles that of "Ceremony" from its OST. Incidentally, those who like the OST for Houseki No Kuni will probably like those from any in the Seiken Densetsu series, BTW. Similar tone of bittersweet wonder.
I am just now realizing this and someone else made this connection already! I wonder what it pulls from but it's addictive and menacing at the same time.
I'm Indonesian, Javanese people. If you hear similiar music like this especially in forest, ocean, or when you hiking a mount in Java island, first you must stop your move and try to think positive, don't tell it to your friend or they will scared. Then pray to the God for your safety, stay focus. Make sure the music gone then continue your step/journey and be humble & polite.
@@rafael.6527this is Gamelan ensemble music, an authentic traditional music. Especially in Java, if you hear this music from nowhere especially from places that i means it before, that mean it played by ghost, not human. And it means a distress ahead if you continue to move.. Sorry for 2 years waiting.. 😅
Man, I remember that they went to the Moon and interacted with the Lunarians, one thought sprung up on my head and I asked "Why do you guys have to be scary every time you pop up? Was that really necessary??"
Sounds like midday horror, i think. It’s as if you went outside during the day when the sun is at its zenith, but at some point everything freezes and becomes very quiet and suspicious. Everything seems fine. It's daytime outside and the sun is shining, but at the same time you feel like something is wrong. And something terrible is going to happen soon. I haven't watched this anime, but I liked this music, even though it scares me to some extent.
I am uploading songs and music from Hoseki no Kuni.. I dont know if I will add this music to my list T_T. I feel like I will be kidnapped any second while listening to this.
anime watchers in the comments: *scared of lunarians* me and all the other manga readers: *deathly afraid of a 4 foot tall little blue haired stripey-sock menace*
777 I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't :( but I found someone that has uploaded all the tracks in one video and here it is and sorry again ruclips.net/video/PbbpV9fRdSo/видео.html
The Lunarians are beautiful in appearance but have an otherworldly dangerous feel to them. Just like this song.
Sometimes I feel anxious when hearing to this. It just feels like somebody's going to shoot you from the sky.
It gives me the chills listening to it and hearing it in the anime.

Unnerving, tense, or eerie

We need a season 2 so we can suffer in 3D after the events of the manga
@@anastasia_852 ikr? plus the arstyle makes the fights very hard to understand. seeing it animated would make much more sense
A lot of people refuse to watch it because it’s in 3D, which makes absolutely no sense.

Heh see what you dis there
therapist: oh come on, you can't really hear fear

Soon, fear will become something solid and not just a feeling.

Hello, do you read the manga ?
There's a spesific scene that really scary.
@@stanil2043 I'm reading it rn and I'm still stuck on the, *clears thorat* "moon landing" scene. It struck me 💔
In this song they are using Gamelan instruments from Bali and Java of Indonesian culture
Pls don't be overproud

Erick Alexander Zepeda Burgos cool
Pantes kok kykny jenis musikny sering denger ya wkwk
Me in any episode: Seems like this is chill
Me suddenly hearing this music: fuck
Fireslice04 literally 😂💔
I’m now conditioned to feel extreme fear when I hear this and I become stressed.
idk why but it scares me somehow
Lola Rmy well, it should be scary because it plays when the lunarians appear XD

Is it scarier than a killing game?
Then the music did really well :)
Don’t worry you’re not alone 😂 when I first listen this song on first ep, I was scared too
If intimidation, tention, and the inhability to move were a song.. this is it. I have grown to fear this song after finishing the anime loll
Dude I felt so asdfghjkl when I heard the Gamelan here
Amaze
Despite the fact that the tuning is closer to a Major scale in sound the way the strings complete the chord makes it eerie while still depicting the bright aura of the Lunarians
It gives off this mystical, mysterious and eerie vibe
Equal-temperament Gamelan haha
It's probably also because of the strings playing in the background! It feels really creepy
If I would described it, its like a horror scene which happened in broad daylight when everyone is watching.
there NEEDS to be an orchestra performance of this song
me: lying in bed and hears a bell ringing
me again: oH gOd no stOP
This just reminds me of poor antarcticite...
Stop

*4 arrows shot to your back*
*your taken and harvested as a [insert spoils here]*
When I first heard this in anime I actually got goosebumps
This song is so out of this world, creepy yet angelic, I find myself playing it nonstop
This song gives me PTSD
I'm not too sure but this sounds like traditional bali music, the bells part. And even the lunatians look like they're dressed in traditional bali clothing.
I'm not from bali but the look and music does look familiar in some way.
That's what I was thinking, it sounds like balinese gamelan music
Feels more Buddhist feel
It's Buddhism
And bali religion is Buddha

Probably one of the best antagonist themes yet. It's so unique in such a horrifying way.
Spoiler
Suprisingly, they're not exactly *that* evil, they just really want to die.
with no context, that sounds very questionable
I feel like you just described me 😂
Theyre desperate. Which in turn makes them do evil things. Fuck Aechmea
Nah they're still evil. Literally just crushing up all the pobrecitos n shit. So rude >:(

uhhhhhhhhhhhh
Theyre basically just moon dust
Now i want to eat em
Such a beautiful yet eerie feeling.
The purge: *starts
Someone with a Bluetooth speaker:
it's pretty, i feel like this song expresses some kind of period in my life that I can no longer remember.
Repressed trauma maybe?
When those gamelan sound kicks in... holyshit the chills man

I’ve heard a lot of “bad shit is about to happen” music but the haunting fanfare that this song creates takes the cake
Glad to hear gamelans being played in an anime ost again since akira
Honestly, this soundtrack fills me with anxiety every time I hear it.
So great and scary at the same time.
The gems: Aw sh*t, here we go again.
the Folk instrumental seems to be just ceremonial and beautiful yet the orchestral is growling in terror.
can't wait for s2
cuz when the identity of the lunarians would be revealed all the fear for them will be vanished lol
and only sadness remains
I think this theme is actually called Sunspot.
Dim Moon yeah i fixed it 😂
Mary Walker What was it before lol
Lαριѕ Lαzυlι lunarians
Mary Walker it makes sense eitherway lol
Lαριѕ Lαzυlι yup ,but there's another ost named by lunarians
well i mistook while i was reading the ost's name list XD
Man, I remember that they went to the Moon and interacted with the Lunarians, one thought sprung up on my head and I asked

Ok, it actually gives me chills.

Now:Run lunarians,its phos
This track creeps the hell out of me but i still listen to it nonstop Ò_Ó
I need an adult! I WANT MY MOMMY!!!
its sounds like gamelan sometimes :D and its so relaxing
I seriously adore the sound track for this anime and especially scores like this one you can really feel the tension.
now imagine like the Silent Realm's Gaurdians in skyward sword and you hear this
DeadMasterMusic Oh please not them !
Thé légend of Zelda Skyward Sword ?
Phos before: *is in fear*
Phos now: is the fear itself
oh man this song never fails to make feel like im on the edge of my seat. so surreal!
this song has a feeling of something that isn't meant to belong anymore
look away
I felt feared, loved, and haunted by one track
I could honestly get hypnotized by this
Thats the idea ;) "come towards us pretty gems..."
Gamers In Hell too bad it never works
0:35 there's a shark coming thru 😂
Bru~~~~~ ho~ yeah so true
Not so much time have passed since the day I completed watching the first season of this anime. Maybe 6-7 months, but man… It feels nostalgic!
This song is beautiful and creepy at the same time
Me: *hears this in the day when I'm alone*
Also me: *remembers that I'm not watching land of the lustrous*
Also also me: 😱😱😱😱😱
This so terifying that some maybe gems consider this as "death" like statue
When hearing this you really do know that something is wrong. It really nakes me wonder how something that beautiful can scare the crap out of me
Well, I've just started reading the manga and every time a sunspot appears I can hear the pictures
anime watchers in the comments: *scared of lunarians*
me and all the other manga readers: *deathly afraid of a 4 foot tall little blue haired stripey-sock menace*
4 foot tall? Dawg Phos is like 6 ft with THOS LONG ASF LEGS
(Manga spoilers)

I can imagine this theme being used again when Phos returns from the moon for the "civil war"
The music in this anime.... fucking wonderful! they honestly do not deserve the hate from the steven universe fan bois
Ruine Marie both are great shows
If you staring blue background,
you can see picture's moving
This theme sounds like the theme of corrupt gods. Graceful, yet maleficent at the same time. It's like evil hiding in beauty and it is so creepy
[SPOILERS] the ironic thing is that this is the song used to represent human souls
Well this is gamelan music, and often used for hinduism ritual
grand and majestic yet eerie and forboding, just like the moon people.
I feel real chills through my body whenever I listen to this
This song gives me chills
i honestly find this calming
