FTL: The Last Stand - Orchestrated
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 мар 2020
- Time to face the rebel flagship. Are you ready? There's no turning back.
I had a lot of fun orchestrating this, it's one of my favourites from the FTL OST and I really wanted to give it a full cinematic feel, including some of the classic sounds from the boss which have been mocked up. Can you feel the battle progress?

I've made a *second* version of this with a bit of a different take! Give it a listen here: ruclips.net/video/6brmWnM8-mc/видео.html
Hi, multimokia! I absolutely love your FTL covers. I was wondering what would be your terms/price for using your FTL orchestral covers during a stream? I just started to stream on Twitch last Saturday, and would love to play it while I work on an outer space setting for D&D.
@@magonus195 Ik this is a year old, but if you never got an answer I'd give a shot towards seeing if the artist has a business email or something similar. They may not check youtube for business inquiries. Best of luck on your setting as a fellow Dungeons and Dragons-er(?)!
"This is it... The rebel flagship. If you are able to destroy this monstrosity, the federation might survive.
There's no turning back!"
"It doesn't take long for the flagship to notice you. Thinking you're just a regular federation ship in its way, it powers up its artilleries and approaches."
Me and the guys being just messengers, but we have to fight the flagship:
The rebels are taking over the sector, we have to defeat it quick!
JUST SAW EPISODE 39 OF FTL KESTREL ADVENTURES, THIS REMIX MADE IT IN!!!
That's how I was introduced to it.
Oh my god. this is incredible! This and your orchestrated Space Cruise are fantastic!
Ah it's you...
*kestral sounds*
The legend himself!
I guess you found the right music for the finale
Ahh yes my hero
The federation and rebels literally slitting each other’s necks while the kestrel and the rebel flagship are just other somewhere away from the battle vibing to this.
more like turning each other into metal slices using 2 of the galaxy's most advanced arsenals avalaible.
@@sosig6445 yes only the most advanced arsenal, like a burst laser 2 and an artemis missile
@@timecubed
Having artemis at that stage is a skill issue and Burst laser is objectively a high tier weapon
@@sosig6445 I think they were talking about the kestrel adventures series, in there the ship had a burst laser 2 and an artemis missile (not sure if it had anything else I can't remember).
@@timecubedheavy ion and a small bomb. They did sell a glaive beam before that
I first listened to this a few days ago. Originally, I was met with mixed feelings. "Oh, it's just an orchestral mix. No big deal." But over time, I listened more... listened deeper. I just heard the 'Power Surge' warning done with the low horns yesterday, and I burst out laughing. What a tiny detail, but one that made the song much more interesting. I thought that was it. Today, I'm listening to this song after beating the Flagship in my own game... and I hear the Flagship jumping out after the first surge warning.
What a masterpiece. You need more subs.
Glad you liked it! I've hidden a couple more details too if you listen carefully,
Some mocked up cloaking sounds, drone release (for first power surge), plus a hull beach sound with warning for being boarded. Some others for the second power surge too!
Grats on beating the flagship!
Listening through it again now... correct me if I'm wrong, but;
1:03 - The flagship cloaking right after initiating combat. I don't know if this is a constant, but it happens for me every time.
1:51 - First power surge alert.
2:01 - Hull breach (cowbell? some percussion...) with subsequent 'Intruder Alert' warning (string instrument).
2:07 - Flagship jumps out.
2:55 - Player ship jumps into flagship's sector? The Alien-esque stings definitely sound like the engine noise to me.
3:01 - Second power surge alert.
3:05 - Another hull breach - or maybe a teleporter - plus the same 'Intruder Alert' sting.
3:25 - Cloaking?
+ 3:41 - Cloak disengaged?
4:00 - Flagship destroyed, credits roll.
This is crazy, man. I could listen to this song for hours and still miss the smaller details if I wasn't paying attention. Good show!
EDIT: Just noticed the sort of twin or tri note piano bits that start during the three and a half minute mark. Weapons charging? Maybe I'm thinking too far into this...
@@toaster6035
1:03 - Right on, the initial flagship cloak
1:51 - Also correct
2:01 - Yep, tried to do the drone sound a little earlier (after the surge), but it's not as clear and was harder to mock up
2:07 - I think this one's down to interpretation, personally I always felt this one to be your ship cloaking since there's a drone swarm, plus you're boarded (that and phase 2 flagship has no cloaking anymore) Also makes the following section make more sense (to me at least) since it's a moment's break during the cloak.
2:50 - This bit here was supposed to be the decloak. Subtle, but was the only real way I could mimic it
3:01 - Yep, second power surge
3:05 - This bit was essentially the heavy-laser volley the flagship shoots at you in phase 3. The cymbals being the firing of it
3:07 - Here's where those shots land on you a bit. 3 of them hit your hull. The resulting warning sound is basically a 'Hull below 75%' warning
Those were all the ones I intentionally included. Nice listening on catching all the details!
Now that you mention it, I do hear the three drum hits at 3:07, and the sound for the hull warning is the same as the intruder alert in game. That's awesome!
I think I prefer to interpret the intended ship cloaking as more of a jump drive segment, since the music tones down as if the battle (for now) is over, and you're looking on the sector map to find the flagship. I do see how it would work as the cloak effect, though you'd have to jump at some point to reach the second phase.
I'm impressed by how much storyline you managed to cram into this song, especially while keeping it as much of a banger it already is. I can't give enough praise.
Yep!
That's fair there, though you can always just wait at the current location (if you're at the federation base) and it'll just come back to. But that's fine, it's the fun of interpreting it after all. Nothing right or wrong.
Thanks for the compliment!

Step 1: Boot up Space Marine
Step 2: Play the final mission
Step 3: Play this song on loop
Step 4: Profit
This guy gets it.
I feel like this guy put at least one "systems damage" siren in this orchestration.
He did.
It's a very cool touch for sure
"Sir! The Rebel flagship is over there!"
"What is it doing?"
"It's...It's playing orchestra, MENACINGLY!"
(I edited this as I realized my spelling error. Anyways, love this.)
Kestrel: *Backed into a corner by the Rebel battlecruisers/destroyers/heavy cruisers/whatever*
Flagship: *aggressively vibing in front of the Fed base*
Every pilot knows that means death!
[Panics in orchestra]
(Surge comes for you)
In my D&D campaign's first boss fight almost four years ago now, where my players fought the physical form of a greater demon without knowing what they were getting themselves into, they then had to convince an army general who had been sent to cover up the whole mess to let them go. During that stand-off which almost came to blows (and would have been disastrous if it had), I played the original FTL Last Stand music. Now, four years later, they've made it into hell itself alongside that same general (since exiled for letting them go) to destroy the spiritual form of that greater demon once and for all - and when they're right before that final fight and that general gives them a rousing speech to finish the fight, this is the orchestration I will use for their background music to let the whole thing come full circle. Thank you so much for an amazing orchestration of an already fantastic track!
Results of the battle? Don't leave us hanging man.
Fr
Hearing this again makes me really hyped for Kestrel Adventures #40, the wait will soon be over and it'll be worth every second.
lol kestrel adventures#40 is in my recommended list on this video.
I typically hate orchestrated mixes and other such 'remasters' as I tend to leave feeling they lacked the same sorta 'feel' of the original.
This one was a pleasant surprise, though, as I believe you did a stellar job at not only capturing the feeling of the original score, but also the feeling of what the song is used for. It just screams "finality", less a videogame's final boss and more a cinematic showdown at the end of some grand journey against insurmountable odds. Less a duel against a singular, larger-than-average ship and more a proper Last Stand against an army with numbers that blot out the stars.
Anyway, here's a like and a sub. Thanks!
Everyone here be talkin' about the Flagship Warning Alarm, but nobody be talking about how the first alarm (1:52) is followed by a short pause, and then a Xylophone hit to indicate the launching of drones, and then a growing intensity of drums to indicate them flying circles around the ship and firing from every angle, followed by a second Xylophone hit when said extra drones are recalled?
And then with the second Alarm at 3:02- it's also followed by a short pause, but with a Cymbal crash instead of a Xylophone, indicating a mass of weapons firing all at once, and then the drums sounding like a massive number of shots hitting the hull simultaneously (almost like that of Flak guns)?
Maybe it's a power surge in the third stage?
Man, the "intruder alert/low hull" sounds are just 10/10! This is a masterpiece!
You have no idea how often I come back here to listen to it.
the ost is for us
THIS IS FOR THE CREW
Decided to play it with headphones on at a high volume
im under a heated blanket and i feel ice cold from just listening
am i scared or amazed
I actually teared up. No joke. And I don't know why. This came up in a random playlist as I was studying and I just had to stop because my mind just relived in a single instance all the hardships, victories and defeats in the long journey to battle the rebel flagship.
Man, it's beautiful. "I'm NOT SAD! WHY am I CRYING?!"
Came here from Kestral Adventures. Wonderful work
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed
@@multimokia more, MORE, MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOREEEEEEEEE. lol jk do what you want XD. Great work btw.
This orchestration honestly sounds like something Murray Gold would have put together for the earlier series of doctor who. Wonderful work
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed
I love this FTL soundtrack for the feeling it gave me when i was fighting the Rebel Flagship
the feeling of FEAR, when you confront this monstrocity and ingage in combat:
you, pausing, take a deep breath while thinking how to put IT down
no turning back, you cannot escape
THE ONLY ONE WHO WILL LEAVE, IS THE ONE WHO WILL WIN THIS FIGHT.
so you ,determined, got a plan and finally stripped off his defenses
you make your final blow, but IT escapes.
You, taking another deep breath, prepare for the round two
here IT is, its time to finally take IT down!
HUH? A warning? That was not planned!
goddamit! somebody, take that fire down! Engie, repairs, NOW!
i will not loose, not here!
and you manage to damage IT again, and IT escapes.
relief, you can relax now.
you look at the map, and the Federation is falling on your eyes
you repair your ship and get ready for the final round.
but you're prepared, you know how dangerous the enemy is, but you dont fear anything anymore
its either Federation or Rebelion and YOU are the one, who will stop this once, and for all.
as IT approaches, IT unleashes its secret weapon, an unstable lazer cannon
your ship takes damage, but you dont care anymore. You charge your weapons, killing the remaining crew thinking that it will stop the monstrocity
but you made it only worse.
a moment, both of you and the rebel ship are low. But you prepared for all of this, as you both discharge your weapons, you and IT blow up to pieces.
you.... have won, but none of you, or the Rebel ship, did not get out alive.
you will be remembered, as a Hero of the Federation.
You need to become an author.
Best part of phase 3... the Zoltan shield RECHARGES. First time I saw that, I just went oh shit, this run is about to die. Thankfully I somehow survived but man was that good
And somewhere in that sequence the dreaded "thump-thump-thump" of that triple missile launcher letting loose
Just realized I never left a comment on this masterpiece. I discovered this a while back, and it is magnificent! My favorite part was always the drop around 1:05 ... you certainly did it justice. I love your choice of instruments assigned to each and every sound. They’re all blended together beautifully! Thank you so much for making this. I’ve been coming back to it every now and then... can’t resist the true epic feel this has.
Oh! It got hearted. I’m so glad you found my comment. Have a good day! :]
19K views?! This is unfair. This deserves hundreds of thousands. All the tiny easter eggs and details, the depth, how vast it sounds, it's amazing. Good work on this piece. Truly gives me chills and feelings of nostalgia from this amazing game.
162k we getting there
So I just fought with this music instead. The Last Stand is a banger on its own, but using this redefined epic.
Since I've heard this I've begun to turn off the music when in the Last Stand and play this on the loop instead. The original's great, but this is just so much more epic and fitting
Wow, thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoy it!
You're welcome, keep up the great work
not if youre good enough
@@multimokia You know what? Can we get a mod to replace Last Stand with this music, or would that be impossible?
@@PillowWillow007 nah. check Multiverse, they have Addon for it. or CA
*It is way to underrated.* I don´t know what else to say to that masterpiece.
Well, FTL: Kestrel Adventures finally gave this the recognition it deserves. I remember hearing this when it had like 4 likes or something
10/10 would slam dunk the flagship
Whoever made this should be proud of themselves. This is criminally under viewed.
This feels like the music we would've gotten if ftl had a more realistic art style than the retro pixels it is.
Don’t you dare say FTL is bad with its pixels! It’s a game from 2011, what do you expect? RTX?
@@thelieutenant3752 it already has RTX. the pixel... They call me...
@@trneedaname4328 Didn’t sunset games stop working on FTL? If it has RTX than it’s probably a modder or someone
Multiverse makes the graphics a bit better
Ben made a blood pressure rising masterpiece. You have beautifully evolved it. The bittersweet end at 4:00 makes everyone who played the game tear up.
Usually when I see "ochestral" remake, I just roll my eyes, because it's just ton of reverb usually with nothing more than basic orchestral sound bank on top of original midi.
Your piece is lovingly crafted, with human playing real instruments making imperfections, real orchestra room reverb, incredible arrangement... It's beyond words how good this is. It's clear you love the original score and you get the idea behind it. You have even recreated the almost silent melody arpegio at 3:28 like the original... then BOOM, let's hear it properly in your own way.
WELL FUCKING DONE! I just... can't express how well done this remake is and how much detail is preserved from the original.
Oh my Lord, when those cellos hit.
Truly a masterpiece. It wouldn't fit this version of the FTL, it's too, well, epic. I think of a 3D, non-pixelated FTL every time I hear this.
Good job!
I think you'll like Kestrel Adventures. It's not exactly non-pixelated, but it's really good once you get past the first couple episodes, I'd recommend to any FTL nerd.
@@ericphillips8268 I already watched it as soon as each episode came out
This is pure genius! Strings bring lots of oppression to the original track but without losing the mysterious space tone.
We need an actual orchestra to do this
Yes
Where do I sign this petition!?!
My heart rate when the last stand stand starts playing. Its over 9000
Seems your talented work answered my mind's question of "Why would this ever need orchestration?".
Beautiful
Worthy of the cinema! Bravissima!
I love when games have one central motif that follows you in the music. Then, when you hear it during the final boss, you know that everything you just went to has prepared you for this. Then your whole crew gets obliterated by the only specific weapon layout that can defeat you one beacon away from the flagship.
Bro your channel just got so much exposure
It is a REAL shame that this video only got 10 views.......... It should be BILLIONS AND BILLIONS!!!!!
It's at 3.000 now...but still terribly underrated.
@@animarthur5297 Yeah, 7,000 and still underrated, mostly commenting for the algorithm
@@spikeybridge1700 its at 100k and still underrated...
This was one of the first, I either first found this one, or space cruise, and if I’m honest, this makes me feel the same way it makes others feel. Less like a final boss fight, and more like a last stand against insurmountable odds. Beautiful rendition.
Just superb. Not to boomer-post but this is why the internet was made.
Gave me more chills than the original. Amazing work.
"Simon, surrender! Adrian Romero wouldn't have wanted this!"
"I do not know that name... and I see no reason to surrender."
I notice that you forgot the 40 alarms that are always blaring in my ears.
... wait no, there they are!
10/10
This served perfectly for Kestrel Adventures ngl.
THIS IS AMAZING
Thanks so much!
If FTL was a game about naval combat in 1940s this would be hos the ost sounds
its oddly satisfying to be the 1000th like
This is what you call a fuckin' B O P
This is pretty good! It's like a draft for something that would have gotten into interstellar but was cut before being fully finished.
I absolutely adore this orchestration, somehow I got recommended it while looking at music for a Starsector meme mod (Philip Andrada Gas Station Manager) and ever since I've been sailing on a wave of awesome sci-fi nostalgia!
I love hearing more and more details as I give it a repeat listen, think my favorite part is the second power surge and how intense it all gets! :)
I've come from a certain episode 39.
Stunning!
It sounds incredible and epic !
Nice one !
I found this years ago and I still listen to it on the regular. It's so good. I get so hyped listening to it.
Needs. More. Views.
I already got enough goosebumps from the original...
I love it!
amazing. nothing more needs to be said.
Outstanding composition, cannot stop listening
Holy shit why I got this recommended so late, so good
This is amazing. Sounds great!
10/10 would get obliterated by the flagship
Awesome. Great work.
This is so well done, I really hope you make more videos like this!
Who else came here from Kestrel Adventures?
yes
Me
ME!
Me
Oh yes! )
while no doubt this is a work of art and very well made, it feels to me almost completely unrelated to the original piece, the notes are there in the right place, but it's just so very... different
Thats sort of the point?
Techno and orchestra tend to sound somewhat different.
Well done, it is realy amazing. If you ever do more of the FTL Soundtrack, if would be a great Soundmod.

Really makes it feel like a big battle.
Well, got the same frisson from this as I did from the original track, so I'd say job well done!
So what software did you use for this? It sounds fantastic!
Thank you! I used REAPER as my DAW, I also use various sample libraries from companies like Spitfire Audio, Orchestral Tools, Performance Samples, CineSamples, and more.
There's a complete list of sample libraries in the video description
Rebel Flagship: "Why are we listening boss music... Oh wait!"
The Fire of the World Revolution.
Came across your FTL covers. This is amazing. Sub from me; hope you see many many more. You deserve it.
Might want to consider organizing your playlists and adding "FTL" to your videos.
WOW.
How is there some "sloppiness" like what you'd hear at a real concert? Like once in awhile the cellos will buzz on a note but it doesn't happen on every note. Does the software you use have a bunch of different samples for each instrument and each note that it chooses to play at random?
Yep! Each instrument has what's called "round-robins" which are recordings of them playing the same note multiple times, which the engine will cycle through at random as to not make rapid successions of the same note sound the same (aka a machinegunning effect). There are also imperfections baked into the samples, as such there's a bit of humanness, and finally, I compose without snap, this means timing is *never* exactly perfect. There are many occurrences where notes are played just sliiightly off, much like a human player would.
Helps keep things sounding kinda real!
