When a game opens up with a message telling you to get food before jumping in, you know it's going to be *beyond* chill.
@QuiXotiC Some games are designed to be a challenge, others an experience. This is the latter.
It's a visual novel, not a typical game.
they really mean it
If you cared more about the mechanics of the game you clearly did not pay attention to the dialog of the game, and how related it is to current events in our timeline
@@DarkWolfenstine they're just talking of the gameplay element of the game. Said a lot of positive things about dialogue as well
Hey everyone,
Just wanted to drop by and say thank you for all the wonderful comments. So glad to hear you guys are enjoying this. Reading all of the positive feedback keeps me motivated and encouraged to push myself and make every composition the best I possibly can. Thank you for that!
Michael Kelly no thank you for uploading this I really appreciate it. your doing great work.
You did an amazing job and helped create the perfect atmossphere for my personal game of the year. Not many games manage to really touch me emotionally, but i have no trouble admitting i cried when it was over, because it was over and i wanted more. Thank you for your beautifull work of art. I wish you a great christmas time. Be proud of your work and never let anyone tell you otherwise.
This is amazing omg
Amazing soundtracks i have listened to most of your public work, really big inspiration can't wait to hear more from you.
Wonderful music, matches the game sooo well! Thanks for giving birth to this! :)
I first discovered this OST right after my daughter was born in 2018. I would wake up late with my wife and hang out with her while she fed our little girl. I'd listen to this music and think about how nervous I was to be a good dad. But I also felt hopeful and excited.
She's 4 years old now, and I still put this on for her. She likes to dance to the music, and it makes me smile.
You are an amazing person
If I could give you a high-five I would. Just saying.
I just wish the best for your daughter and family
this is what I wanna do to introduce this song to my future children (if I ever have any)
at many points, this game made me think hard about various things in life. everything from relationships to the future.
it was alright
I agree with you..
Like what?
@@SpikeTheWolf If I had to guess, maybe relationships with others (family, friends etc.). Sometimes those things can come back to bite you, but thats just life. It's always going to be hard, but we should live on, because we can.
@@LuckiSir toxic parents exist, shitty backstabbing peers exist, endless bills exist. Fuck this shit
@@trevorfranks69 You also exist. Focus on that above all.
Stay inside. Stay safe. Add Karmotrine. We're in strange times.
It's such strange times that I bought premium for bath time with Streaming-chan.
@@otsegoudead whats it like in there im too poor for premium
@@TheInterNep One word : Wild. There's that growing impatience that tickle your brain as the bubbles slowly and slowly burst. And you just keep muttering to yourself "just a bit more".
But to be honest, that's not even close to the best part: drying. She do close-ups on the dropletsand I tell ya, you cannot make a droplet be sexier, that's crazy.
fuck it lets get it on
Don't tell me what to do N!!!999993333333333RRRRRRR
1:18:30 It's time to mix drinks and change lives.
Nice Choice :D
Thanks, I try. (´・ω・`)
why does this remind me of Duke Nukem
Duke Nukem!? I was thinking of Phantasy Star 2 & 3!
Nice choice! For me it was always 12:00.
Whoever made this OST should be absolutely proud of themselves. It's hands-down the best OST of 2015, if not the last 5 years. I haven't enjoyed a soundtrack this immensely since Frozen Synapse.
Michael Garoad.
aka the guy who posted this video 😂
Agree to disagree. This OST is great, I'd definitely put it high on my list, but it's definitely not the best OST between 2010~2015.
Going off the top of my head and talking mainstream stuff, there's Interstellar, Inception, Attack on Titan, Whiplash, How To Train Your Dragon, The Grand Budapest Hotel, Drive, The Social Network.
Even in 2015 alone, Undertale is a very strong competitor for that "best OST", but I would rank Second Round above it.
@@imasepan Well... I thing that he is talking about games.
@@capivara6094 Maybe, but like I said, Undertale is a pretty strong competitor. I disagree with him saying "hands-down".
omg "Every Day Is Night" has been stuck in my head ever since this game came out
Same. I love that song.
"It's time to mix drinks and change lives" Hehe..
It still is
Used to listen to it every day before my shift to get in the mood.
6:28
Already nostalgic over the game, finishing it was like losing friends! :( Thank you for the music.
I feel that man, I was sad to see it end. Though there is a good ending if you missed out on it, and the game is just as good the second time as it is the first. That's how you know it's a keeper.
100% The game for satisfaction at the fullest
Good news, N1RV-Ann-A is announced now!
@@tracker7059 You are my savior
I was like "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I DON'T WANT TO FINISH IT!! PLEASE MAKE A SEQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEL"
I always know I can come back to this place for comfort.
This game is so comfy.
4 years later and I’ve found myself here again. Good to be back
hell yeah brother. theres way too many bangers in here to not come back to once in a while
I came here from this: ruclips.net/video/0vic9IMGH1E/видео.html
dreamy, futuristic... reminds me of PSO :)
+SyllixMusic I absolutely agree, also a little bit of Persona - simply fantastic! ^^
+SyllixMusic Thank you, Syllix. :)
that could be why i'm liking it so much. great tunes
Exactly what I thought when I first heard it
Damn, I love that you mention PSO. *sigh* so many good memories and endless hours. I'd hangout in the lobby and just chat with friends while we listened to the music.
*sees first track name*
*sweats nervously*
"Heheh, I thought we were done with this..."
I feel you, man.
*[Copiously sweating determination]*
This comment filled me with determination
The first time you see a member of the actual fandom instead of a cringe compilation and that’s what u think? Really?
@@buterassassin1952 Yes.
I was, quite literally, laying down in absolute agony, and your music you had made for this wonderful game started playing on autoplay. Suddenly, the immense pain I had been feeling washed away upon hearing the music you had made for VA-11 HALL-A again.
I have never made music, but what your music had done to me is what I can only hope my creations can give to the world we live in now.
Thank you for everything you've given us. Hopefully, amongst all you may have inspired, one of us can make something that has you in the credits as inspiration.
Keep kicking ass out there. I'm sure you're busy being awesome already anyways~.
Akkio hope you’re still feeling better
stop coping and start roping

@@Valskyr and? are you living and loving?
15:49 I was on a road trip and our car caught fire, so we had to stop at a car dealership a hundred miles from home to get a drive home. It took hours between us getting there and getting out, and in that time, we spent a lot just sitting in our broken car. In there, I had this in my recommendations and decided to check it out. When I heard this song, I knew I had to try the game, and I've been a big appreciator of it ever since. This was almost a year ago. Va-11 hall-a has been a great experience and I thank this upload for introducing me to it. Also song bops.
Hello wanna get notified about your 1 year old comment
@@Sholver yes yes I do, thanks for that
"You've Got Me" brings peace to my soul
theperuvianX sadnesse and lonelyness for me
its pure fucking bliss
I am playing this music every morning welcoming my kindergarten students to classroom. The music brings calmness as they enter and play quietly waiting for class to begin. Thank you.
You are an awesome human being
Every now and then, I'm back in VA-11 HALL-A. Dang.. miss the vibes.
still waiting for N1RV ANN-A orz
@@leesasuki Soon, soon
6 years later and this is still a banger. Thank you for uploading this :)
On occasion I find myself coming back to listen to this OST
It's amazing, and dare I say...
A E S T H E T I C
I skipped over to the song "Everything will be okay". It's been a rough evening, and that's just what I needed to read and hear. ❤️❤️❤️
Whoa, that's a lot of music you made.Thanks for your effort, I'm sure the game will be amazing with what you made!
+Sephyxer Thank you for listening!
Just here 8 years later to say, this is an unbelievable collection of phenomenal compositions. So atmospheric, so well put together, sonically dense, and downright fantastic. I loved the game this was attached to, but beyond that, I have many non-gamer friends and family that love your music. You've created something truly great here. I cannot stress enough how good this is.

Hey kids Do you wanna DIE?
This game helped me get through a very rough patch in life.
I hope one day I can find my own hole-in-wall with a caring bartender I can bleed my heart out to.
6:28 My fav. I had it on all the time. One day I filled all jukebox slots with it
Happy achievement.
Tbh there wasn't a single day in-game that wasn't on my jukebox. That song is such a banger
Pretty sure I still fill all my jukebox slots IRL every day with this song.
It was Every Day is Night and Welcome to Valhalla for me. These two were always in my jukebox without fail.

I'll never be not absolutely impressed at how long this OST has stuck in my mind. I played VA-11 HALL-A like a little over 2 years ago, and to this day I still come to this video like once a month AT LEAST. The amount of soundtracks that have done this for me I can only count in one hand. You Sir, are truly one of the best composers I've ever encountered. I will definitely keep an out for any of your future works :)
Also here for my monthly serotonin boost lmao
Man this game was a once in a lifetime experience, just pure *chill*
Came across a playlist of this soundtrack at 3am when i couldn't sleep one night
It was the exact refreshing i needed.
30 minutes in and I've been so deep in flow while working that I didn't realise I had this playing. This is great!
This is my comfort music. Something about this album puts a huge grin on my face and makes me feel cosy as heck.
One of the best soundtracks Ive ever heard, thank you
It's incredible just how much emotion there is in each track. I love every second of this OST, the melodies are unforgettable. Thank you Garoad!
years later i keep coming back, this game made me feel happy and in peace, and listening to your music takes me back to those times, I love it
This soundtrack (and this game) in two words:
Pure Gold.
Music is mostly appreciated in accompanying, or being accompanied by another art like in a Music video and here this might be the other way round and appreciated as a game accompanying music. Having listened to this OST, the effusie impulses of your creativity, where almost every entry has the feature of a gem found in one ost, the clarity of their appearance in arrangement and in the mix likewise, as well as the length to which they amount, while not knowing much about the game, I am convinced that it makes the game better than it already might be.
The first round was already content of this, taking off, whereas the second one arrived at a by-gone VGM, even Anime era, or rather kind of musical craft, in which it might take its place surrounded by variously precious titels, but might as well keep us company in the present, reanimate and resume to unearth the beauty hinted there.
Really glad after all the time of knowing about you to see you thrive!
Anyway, congratulations and cheers!
+AlphaOrchestra Thank you so much, AO! :)
+AlphaOrchestra Have you ever heard of the game "Sword and Sworcery"? I'd say it also exemplifies the concept of a game built around the music.
+Kniroid This is the first time, but I find these approaches interessting. "Audiosurf" would be another example.
Often there are great games with great music and you love the music even after playing the game. Every so often, there's music that's so good, that if you don't own the game, it makes you buy it. This is the case for VA-11 HALL-A
Your music is freaking stellar, I've been looking for years for something with this vibe.
Superb job, Michael.
My audiophile friend just bought VA11 bundle solely by liking your music
"Every day is night" Reminds me of the city nightlife...
Thank you so much for creating such good music. It's a blessing when can feel whole again listening to what you have made!
hands down one of my favorite soundtracks in recent memory, keep up the awesome work!
いつまでも聴いていたい。ありがとう……!
Played it a couple years ago and I keep coming back to this OST. There's something so very nostalgic about the soundtrack and the game that made me play more than a hundred hours of what could, coding wise, be just an early Flash game on some random game website in the early 2000s. But it isn't, the writing is charming, the characters are fun and the soundtrack sets it apart. Being able to choose you own tracks in the beginning of every night? That's *chef's kiss* material right there.
That's what V2 is for.
Thank you for having it downloadable.
It's been years but I still love all the music you made for this wonderful game. It really added a lot to the whole experience, thank you.
This has been the best pallet cleansing game I’ve played. Listening to this playlist before I bought the game sealed the deal for me. Any game with a banging soundtrack like this has got to be good.
For some reason this music all feels so nostalgic despite the fact I played through it only a couple of months ago. I absolutely love this game and soundtrack.
The GFL collab got me here, the writing is really good and the music just fits so well... considering buying the OST and Va-11 HALL-A itself now.
If you liked the collab, you'll definitely like the game. It's amazing
I recommend it. Streaming-chan and Dorothy are pretty problematic, but the writing, characters and music otherwise are fantastic. Play it at night time with the lights off and just take it all in. It was wonderful
here on a random tuesday morning to say thanks for the tunes!
Still coming back to this even a year and a half after playing the game!!
Cant stop listening to these tracks, Drive me Wild, Youve Got Me, Friendly Conversation, and all the rest are just complete masterpieces
I must say that's probably my most watched video/album/OST in 2016. Thanks for these suberb compositions!
Love it all as usual! Synthestitch is one of my favorites, just to name one. Love the leitmotif callbacks to the first game's OST, as well. (Especially since I practically ground that record into dust listening to it so much...)
It's been an absolute pleasure seeing you get more and more projects as time goes on, and improving upon your skills each time. I hope you're even a fraction as proud of yourself as we are of you. Keep up the excellent work!
+Benjamin Shaw Thank you so much, Benjamin! That means a lot to me! Enjoy. :)
The 'first game'??
Im really glad I clicked on this at random. This is literally amazing. Going to check this game out for sure now.
Hello...I'm a simple nobody on the internet, but I just wanted to say that your music is bloody amazing! Really, it's everything I need to study, concentrate, focus on reading or simply to relax. Thank you so much for these wonderful compositions! :)
love how the comforting and peaceful serenade of Everything Will be Okay is immediately followed by the tense March of the White Knights
Really love the soundtrack, man. Looking forward to hearing more from you in the future!
Track 23 is just absolutely perfect. When the music hits the 51:10 mark, I get chills. Every. Single. Time.
7 years ago. It's been so long...
since i last have seen my son
Wait until 10 years have passed
I think this is one of my most replayed soundtracks ever. It has gotten me through so many years of the daily job grind. Whenever I'm feeling down, I just put the vinyl for this on and the moment I hear the opening song, I feel at ease. Thank you for giving me this Michael. Your music is incredible.
this game will never stop being amazing
WOW! I mean...WOOOOW!
I was mesmerized by the trailer's music, so I had to look for the OST. DEFINETELY GONNA BUY THIS.
It OOZES 80's style, classic 16-bit and coin-op games, it oozes classic 80's anime and it's absolutely great on its own. Love it. 10/10, perfect.
Shades of Yuzo Koshiro and beyond that. I always thought of videogames, just like movies, as a complex form of art that's actually made by several art pieces that come together to form a collective work that benefits from the work of all artists partecipating to it, and music is by no means a small part.
There were obviously very talented artists working on this game and you are clearly incredibly gifted. Kudos to you, thanks for your beautiful, soul-enriching work of art.
if you find the ost for purchase please link me. I want to purchase it!
nvm I found it. they have it up for free on their site but I will donate

: Uhm...dude, it's in the notes of this very video... -_-
You can buy it on bandcamp: garoad.bandcamp.com/album/va-11-hall-a-second-round
I'm surprised someone knows about Yuzo Koshiro, and here I thought only car guys and Maximum Tune players who only knew about the artist
You are thinking about kids nowadays. I was born in 1978 and grew up with 8 and 16 bit classics. XD
This album is what got me to buy the game. It’s been two years, but I still listen to this. It’s honestly great.
Fantastic work here, I'm very impressed. These tracks are perfect for homework, exercising and everything in between.
Thank you for the wonderful music. This is one of the only soundtracks that I feel helps me relax and focus while working, so I keep coming back to it.
Even before clicking on this video, for some reason, I felt like I had found an amazing album, and my instincts were right. This feels straight out of the 80s/90s and you replicated the feeling better than anyone else, congratulations man.
Play the game too! Both things are fantastic
@@ilimeo1270 Lo voy a probar cuando tenga algo de tiempo. parece bueno
Absolutely awesome. I'm really curious though. Will you be uploading your old tracks somewhere. I really love a lot of them and cant listen to them anymore >.>
RUclips recommendations lead me to this game. Thank you, for the good times and for the chill ass music.
I only recently heard about this game, and I'm listening to the OST for the first time...
... and yet, it feels nostalgic. As if I'd heard each and every track before, maybe in a past life. It feels like returning home to visit your family after you moved to another city, and you'd forgotten the warmth of your special place, but it was always there, waiting for you.
The music encapsulates this perfectly, it's just... I love it!
Coffee talk also has an epic ost

it's a strange feeling to listen to the whole album and think about how many different emotions and memories i have tied to each song.
Still waiting for 2
I smell a lot of 80s Japanese pop and synthwave stuff in this not to mention some Shoji Meguro in there... I really like it to be honest!
I thought it's only me who can sense Shoji Meguro in there.
The shoji meguro is very faint I think.
Michael Kelly is a well-known hardcore fan of the Shin Megami Tensei series, after all.
Sounds like Asuka 120%, Bubblegum Crisis and Patlabor 2.
It reminds me a little of urusei yatsura
Holy crap I was jamming to this today and forgot that I once knew this man. Michael Kelly your music is the bomb
We need a sequel this is too damn good to let it end and the soundtrack is super relaxing
Thank you so much for this soundtrack.
Man you are a goddamn genius and a treasure. I don't think you know the extent of how positively you influence people's lives with music like this. After work, after a difficult day, I love nothing more than sitting near my window, with a cup of hot chocolate and just play a game or read a book with this OST in the background. Your music is part of what makes my life beautiful. Thanks dude.
I can't understand why ALL SONGS in this are absolute FIRE.
This stuff deserves my bucks.
Still so good. I swear I will be coming back to this soundtrack for years
When I was working at a summer job, I would listen to this soundtrack (more so this whole video) while I worked.
Well not really worked, more so walked to work.
I wokred a over night job at a garden center here in canada during the summer. Each night I would wake up close to 2-4 am (depending on the starting shift). After getting up and going outside in the dead of night to walk to work, it would take close to a hour to get work some times, depending on the weather. But every time I walked to work, And listen to the songs from this track, it would help me pass the time. It also reminded me that while I wished for a better life, or a better job, at the end of the day (or night) I was working at least, that I was alive. I was alive, I was able to look up to the night sky and see the stars, I was alive and I can feel the wind on me, and I was alive and could eat some good food, and have some good times.
My message is that while you may not be in the best spot in life, and might not be working the best job, your alive, and sometimes, that's all you need. because being alive means you can experance the simple things in life as you walk around your towns, at any time of day.
Time to mix drinks and change lives.
Харош
i love this game so much.
Same. I recently started playing it, loving the vibes of it so far
dude i feel like I'm in the future listening to this sweet music thank you for uploading this :D
Wow, where has this been all my life? ♡.♡
I love it. Thank you very much :)
This soundtrack is ridiculously good. it somehow sounds nostalgic and it is also really relaxing. I don't listen to electronic music at all but this one I plan to listen over and over again.
Thanks for this. It reminds me so much of Patlabor while working and gives me energy to continue writing. Epic sounds!
Just awesome. Great job on this album.
This game and its soundtrack were the most pleasant surprise ive ever gotten out of a random steam sale purchase.
Played this game when I worked in Wetherspoons. Having this soundtrack in my head, as well as the game in general, really helped "inspire" me to be a decent bartender XD
Absolutely incredible work, Michael!!! I just started playing this game for my first time this past week and, as another composer, I can truly say this is incredible work. You manage to take Synthwave into unique territory and make it something truly emotional and resonant. This isn't your typical Synthwave that I so often hear trying to copy 1980s movies with the rolling basslines or giant snare drums. This is genuinely symphonic, emotional and I love the tones and ideas you come up with. It's so dream-like with bells, pianos, bright pads and honestly feels like it leans more into 1990's music which is just my jam. It's so different and that uniqueness is what makes it stands out. Very well done!!
Brilliant music for a brilliant game. Can't wait to hear what you do next :)
It's genius that in the game you get to choose which song plays in queue on the jukebox, because then every song means something different to each person. For example, I played snowfall a lot so it's like my "at home bartending" theme. It's magical!
Definitely need to replay this game.
Your OST first attracted me to it years ago. This is a genuine soundscape. You can just feel the setting of the game in each song. But they're all open-ended enough that you can grab w/e from the jukebox and it just works for whatever is being said, by whomever.
Anyone composing vg-osts should listen to this at least once.
I really loved playing this game at night and listening to the music so much!! Thanks for this compilation 👌❤😭
This fine album gets an absurd amount of replays for me. It's my go to music when I need to get productive and focus, and also when I just want to chill and relax. So I guess it's my anytime tunes.
