defeating the Krakens in Magicant feels so accomplishing because this time you didn't have the captians vital help of throwing his slipper, making you feel more powerful then before
Did anyone else use Poo to mimic the kraken? Imagine being Jeff and suddenly the weird guy who just joined turns into the giant beast that attacked you.
I will tell you an anecdote. I put on a music playlist while playing minecraft. And the fact is that I forgot that I added a mod that added leviathan monsters to the seas. Just by chance of fate, when I was attacked by one of those leviathans while I was swimming. This music started playing on my list. I beat him but I stayed half a heart. It was epic.
While everyone seems to like 0:47 (for a good reason it rocks), 0:25 always stuck out for me because of how the energy of the song seems to suddenly slow down. And it’s at the right portion of most fights that I begin to realize that I may be in for a stressful and long fight. Given how most of the enemies that use this theme are meant to be major roadblock enemies.
the slippers were a vital key to the initial fight, honestly felt magical defeating 3 of those things without unlacing my shoes and throwing them at the kraken's in Magicant
i've never actually beaten earthbound before, but i've tried to play it many times. i've been attempting another playthrough recently and i finally got past threed for the first time and this is one of the only battle themes i haven't heard once from this game and i was so caught off guard by the intro. i had to like take a minute to listen to this entire song before i kept playing. this is definitely my favorote battle theme so far from this game. i think mother 3's ost will always be my personal favorite but this entire series has such great music. this is probably my favorite snes ost though.
The only time I played through it was with cheats, because my Wii's SD card ate my saves halfway through the game. Really need to finish the game legit one of these days.
Yeah man I feel that. For me, I probably would've never finished the game if I didn't abuse the suspend point feature that NSO has. The respawn points after getting a game over can be so brutal. And it also sucks that you respawn without any PP meaning that you can't even fast travel after respawning. Though to the game's credit, this is the only glaring flaw that I notice, which is really good for an SNES game. I'd honestly go as far to say that this is hands down the best SNES game in the year 2023, just in terms of how well it holds up.
Holy fuck this slaps. I remembered everything about Earthbound was amazing when I played it, but I didn't remember the ost being THIS lit. ...it's not that the ost aged well, the rest of the world''s finally caught up to genius shit ahead of it's time.
I’m thinking the parts at 1:04 and 1:12 are what inspired the Mother 3 tracks that are variations of other battle themes but with the occasional parts to throw off your rhythm
There is something special about this track. It has something about it that makes it more than the sum of its parts. I cannot describe it, but every time I listen to it, I am mesmerized by the way it sounds and the way it progresses.
It's so alien-esque while still keeping some of that sea vibe, "something energed from the water". The situation is intense. Though you're well aware how absurd the situation is. You just encountered a kraken for hell's sake! But you know you can fight it, you're strong. You HAVE to fight it, even the captain did, although you didn't notice... It gets quite ethereal in 0:25 it's so beautiful i keep coming back to this song just for that part. It reminds me of the goal of the journey. Of home. Of all the places Ness and the team have been to so far. They fight to save those places.
I think the most interesting bit is the modulation on that main synth is done by brute force: The low pass filter effect is done by having several permutations of the same synth sample (every so slightly bassier), then playing them in sequence.
The only reason why I enjoy fighting that one damn robot in the stone henge base is cus of this theme me over here saying I won’t dance to this song each time it plays me dancing each time it plays
0:47 Sounds like an alternate theme to the main battle theme, like one you would hear in the “dark world” of a game like final fantasy aka the designated “late game enemy battle theme”
I saw @Stirrfrye mention this already, but this music occurs FAR before the Kraken is even seen, the only one I can remember being the Smiling Spheres from the desert near Fourside.
I remember I was playing cube runners version four somebody said to beat the Kraken and then like days when I came to the soundtrack, the title said Kraken so It reminded me of cube runners
Meanwhile in a christmas themed server in terraria Person 1: Sure we're going to get the presents Person 2: Nuh uh we're going to get the presents first *250X Bombs falls of the sky already ignited* Person 1: HOLY FU- *This music plays*
I don't know why this song in particular reminds me of the scene from Charly and the chocolate factory when violet inflates and turns blue and also to two thousand ten

I doubt that’s possible.
@@spectrum-5 It is, Poo just turned into a frigging Kraken.
@@spectrum-5 It shouldn't be possible, yes, but it is.
I did.
How in the world does Poo even mirror the enemies in the first place. Like... he turns into the exact copies of them? Bro knows something we don't...
I love how the instrument sounds like it’s going underwater and then submerges from it.
You're everywhere. And so am I
It sounds much smoother but I think it was done with just 4 samples listening closely.

i've never actually beaten earthbound before, but i've tried to play it many times. i've been attempting another playthrough recently and i finally got past threed for the first time and this is one of the only battle themes i haven't heard once from this game and i was so caught off guard by the intro. i had to like take a minute to listen to this entire song before i kept playing. this is definitely my favorote battle theme so far from this game. i think mother 3's ost will always be my personal favorite but this entire series has such great music. this is probably my favorite snes ost though.
I like earthbound's ost more, felt more memorable.
this is such a wholesome comment

this is truly one of the games of all time.
This and Disco train from DKC2 are screaming 90s music so much I like it.
Love Disco Train
This song doesn't make me think 90s at all without context.
The soundtrack was ahead of its time
It really was lol. The entire soundtrack is insane, not many games can compete with it.
It's wild to think about how much this soundtrack inflected upon my psyche like almost 20 years since I first listened to it
I still don’t know how they made so much bangers into a game that was on the SNES.
Holy fuck this slaps.
I remembered everything about Earthbound was amazing when I played it, but I didn't remember the ost being THIS lit. ...it's not that the ost aged well, the rest of the world''s finally caught up to genius shit ahead of it's time.
Bafflingly, this plays during the 6th and 7th Sanctuary Guardians, Thunder and Storm and Electro Specter.
That's still weird, the rest of the guardians have the iconic music and these guys has to stand out
WE GOING UNCONCIOUS WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I cannot help but imagine a beatboxing Morshu with this song playing in the background
SAME But I imagine him on a massive TV Screen like that 1984 meme
I’m thinking the parts at 1:04 and 1:12 are what inspired the Mother 3 tracks that are variations of other battle themes but with the occasional parts to throw off your rhythm
No, through out the entire game, they do shit like that quite frequently. It’s only that mother 3 actually started using this as a feature.
this may be the sound of the captain's slippers hitting the kraken's face
The bgm farted
@@splurgyrealbaam is a good example half of the song is on the off beat for whatever reason

Easily my favorite battle theme in this game

I didn't expect this BGM when fighting a smiling sphere.

The only reason why I enjoy fighting that one damn robot in the stone henge base is cus of this theme me over here saying I won’t dance to this song each time it plays me dancing each time it plays
The only reason I like it is because I can Mirror the Atomic Power Robots, so Poo can be the ultimate healer for the remainder of the battle
Is this the Kraken battle theme? For me, is the robotic alien enemies theme.
0:47
Sounds like an alternate theme to the main battle theme, like one you would hear in the “dark world” of a game like final fantasy aka the designated “late game enemy battle theme”
Like Deltarune ?
Took a lot of time just to find this song😩

One of my favourite ost
I love this song
My favorite "not only boss" battle song.
The "Use the most deadly PSI attacks you have or die" theme
When he said “oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo ” I felt that
Here We goooo!
This has to be my favorite of all the battle themes
The theme of terrifying sea monsters! And also some orbs for some reason.
the "weeeeeeeeeeeh" noise really gives alien vibes
this is my second favorite earthbound song
That yoinky sploinky
LOVE THAT BASS...... dun dun dun, dun dun dun, dun dun dun, dun dun dun, dun dun dun
Best song to have an epilepsy to
i like how it turns into donkey kong music
Best battle theme in the game IMO.
BMO
This is so dope. Kinda reminds me of perfect dark for a bit.
Pro gamer tip:BEAT THE FIFTH AND SIXTH SHRINES BEFORE DOING THIS. Then, just spam PK freeze gamma.
If the taste of Kool-Aid without sugar was a song:
Chicken when they eat a Nugget
This track is legit dope a f.
The kraken becomes such a joke when you make it numb
0:47 This part goes hard
morse code got some beats!
This was actually the hardest fight in the game 😭😭 i never would've got through without the captain's slipper
That moment you get pk starstorm ♎
I remember I was playing cube runners version four somebody said to beat the Kraken and then like days when I came to the soundtrack, the title said Kraken so It reminded me of cube runners
I like how they tried to emulate a low pass filter
Espectacular
I'll never forget when the first kraken I fought in the sea of eden just instakilled me with a Pk Flash ß on the first turn

The kraken obliterated me so many times in a row
Battle against a true *waterproof* machine
So this is the "bee boo boo bop" song Mr Krabs was talking about.
I don't know why this song in particular reminds me of the scene from Charly and the chocolate factory when violet inflates and turns blue and also to two thousand ten
Funny thing they called it the Kraken theme, but you hear this song way earlier in the game when you face the sphere in the desert.
"Kraken Breathed fire, It did 328 mortal damage to Ness!
It did 367 mortal damage to Paula!
It did 417 Mortal damage to Jeff!"
IT KILLED EVERYONE EXCEPT JEFF
definitely not a kraken despite the name

Ahh yes the “The Atomic Power Robot exploded into bits!” theme
All I can say is:
Damn.
pain of grinding for ness' ultimate weapon.
Ness used PSI Flash B!
Kraken was defeated!
this is the best song ever
There's better music in EarthBound.
NOT THE EXPLOSIVE ENEMIES!!!
First time i heard this music i think was when i fought the smiling sphere, those things blowing up in my face wasn't very fun.
First time for me was when i was fighting the kraken
The music like you confront any enemy on underwater
When motu patlu enter earthbound:
what aliens listens to
ngl I think I unfortunately made the boss too easy
I spammed nothing but Freeze Y lmao

Don't know why it's called kraken of the sea when thunder and storm use it first robots use it later as well as mr electro specter
Someone’s kind to electro specter

it might be because the kraken was the first boss in development to use this theme
