I've been having a blast streaming Shadow of the Colossus on the gameplay channel! You can watch the playthrough over here: ruclips.net/video/IsJ1bYwrxXs/видео.html
GUY I don't even HAVE to start playing the video yet and I'm already crying. Do I remember this OST? Oh yes I doooo
Will you do a video on Epilogue?
It has a certain sense of, well, SCALE that most game music doesn't have. Honestly, what I had already heard of the Shadow of the Colossus OST was the first thing I thought of when hearing Ahtal-Ka's phase two theme.
There’s like a weird booming echo from the giant drums that makes it feel *vast*
Shadow of the Colossus holds a special place in my heart for being first game to show that games can be more than just mindless fun; as a kid I had been playing the likes of platformers and GTAs and such, which are fine but more on the entertainment side of scale and when I played SotC I got blasted with simple but really fun gameplay, amazing music and visuals and story which had simple enough premise but still stuck to me to this day. All in all amazing game which still holds up, even the original, non remastered version. I intend to have my nephews play it soon, as long as I can clean up my good old ps2.
In the early-mid 2000s, Japan had this very specific kind of 'Lost civilisation' aesthetic that you could see in games like Zelda, Shadow of The Colossus, Ico, Last Guardian, Final Fantasy, and even the maps on Monster Hunter 2 games where you fight the Yama Tsugami?
It's kind of like sprawling, cyclopean, moss-covered stone hallways and vast vistas with like Machu Pichu/ Inca-inspired stone carvings, and they're located in places high above the clouds, and they seem very cold and windy? Maybe it was inspired by the intro credits of the Nausicaä Ghibli movie? 🤔
Even pokémon showed some of that inspiration lol
Maybe the Most fascinating example may be evergrace
@@Nucksen I haven't heard of Evergrace before, will check it out! 🙂
-For me, 'The Tower' map in Monster Hunter 2G is one of the clearest examples, it's such a cool location! 🙏👌👌👌
@@GunterThePenguinHatesHugs Evergrace is an action adventure by From Software that's just indescribably unique. The soundtrack is so absolutely strange and beautiful, it should be discussed on this Channel
Team Ico are masters at soundtracks, Ico and SotC and The last gaurdian are all amazing in every way and the sound tracks from shadow are especially close to my heart. Such a good game.
Oh boy, do I remember. This soundtrack has so many standout tracks, I couldn't pick a favorite. The first time I saw this game was in 2007 when I went to the US and visited a friend whose brother was playing it at the time. I was instantly fascinated and I've played it on PS2, PS3 and PS4 since then. It's such a unique gem of a game, especially when it makes you realise that you just might be the 'baddie'.
I can't wait to watch that playthrough!
Oh, my goodness! I'm right in the middle of this (9:50), and listening to what you're saying, and watching the guy who has climbed up the Colossus' back, and has now evidently punctured his skull, and the music is STUPENDOUS! Oh, my word! I was sitting here very still, with my mouth hanging open...while wishing I had seen that game before, and played it! Doggone it!
Have finished, now, and can hardly wait to have the time to watch your playthrough! WOW! Thank you, Davi. The music is really wonderful, and I can hardly wait to see more about the game. 😀
I watched an older cousin play this game. A violent encounter was the first track I heard and it has stuck with me since.
I just love your enthusiasm for all the music you feature. You do a great job of breaking it down and explaining it.
Gave me chills the first time i heard it
Just clicked on this seconds ago, seeing you get excited about my favorite SotC track made my day!
Amazing video. The OST fits the game perfectly, whether ambient or dramatic track, it was as if it originally existed within the game itself. From the moment I heard the prologue music, I felt something special and got goosebumps. It's hard to describe, but it felt like the music itself was alive, breathing and speaking to me. Thanks for the video, Davi!
Love how happy you look listening to this
Pls do a messenger from behind, gate keeper of the castle ruins, and a despair filled farewell they are goats. So intense
Considering how you fit Revived Power's main melody into a 3/4 signature, I'll say that I honestly love how it flows well, but you can also sort of hear the Colossus' slow movement underneath in 4/4 with the bass/percussion, and that for me makes the faster paced sounding pieces more awesome.
I'd really love for you to either cover the entire soundtrack in a longer form video (including the non-used ones if you like, they're just as cool for the cut colossi), or to at least cover A Messenger From Behind and it's counter piece Counterattack, and Demise of the Ritual. I'll try to remember to pop them in the Patreon, lol. -Damien.
I am but a simple viewer. I see Shadow of the Colossus content, I like.
I love how you explain things
Wow, so much to say about this video! The synth parts sound so magical and otherworldly, what a great way to convey that. The brass in the first colossus fight really makes you feel the size of what it is you’re fighting, and the bass thumping like giant footsteps or a giant heartbeat. I was strangely having Attack On Titan vibes during this song. It makes sense I suppose! Loved the gameplay stream, looking forward to see you beat the game. Thanks Davi!
Really enjoy listening to you explain this music. Like I said before, never really paId attention to the music of games until I found you. Thank you 😁
Yes, I remember. One of my favorite OSTs and one of my favorite games
The most beautiful video game soundtrack of all time. I have favorites, but every track at least does its job.
I'd love if you took a look at "A Despair Filled Fairwell" from this game's soundtrack, it's one of my favourites in any game
I still listen to this ost daily in my car. Makes driving more epic
❤❤❤ omg I have been waiting for this !!! I love sotc I am so happy you reviewed this masterpiece
Suggestion: The Hills of Éllís Mór (The Last Door). I haven't played this game but it's beautiful (and empty as well, but not in a negative sense I think) and the music is very good. Also, the track when you beat a colossus is very sad lol, and the cutscene as well. Btw, I won't forget the bird colossus is called Avion, very good name 😂.
That's it. ¡Adiós!
just tell him about blasphemous
@@just-someone99 I have told him about Blasphemous many times, I'm sure he will check it out someday, not soon though.
If you clean your house listening to this songs, it will be the most epic moment of your life
I forgot about this game for so long but the moment i heard revived power it all came back to me i love this game.
I lack the musical vocabulary to describe this, but when I hear the orchestral parts in SotC it reminds me a LOT of orchestral pieces from like the seventies and eighties, often with animation. I can't tell WHY, though. Maybe the heavy use of brass and flutes was a style that was less popular later in contemporary soundtracks? Or maybe it's a certain sort of recording artifact you can kind of hear. Like it's flatter. It creates a certain effect that you don't get as much in modern orchestral scores, even if things have shifted toward more ambient, less emotive styles.
Have you covered Xenoblade much?
The strings and the brass also seem to have a vocal quality, I think?
Masterpiece soundtrack. Definitely one of my favourites.
the "most iconic" track reminded me of grandia theme or other such titles like Bof or even ghibli
so cool to watch this, i was thinking about this game recently. its so unique and the soundtrack is so stunning. i would love to see you do a full video on demise of the ritual, that's gotta be my favorite on the ost.
Love this ost
I waited for this video for so long! I feel like I've got late Christmas gift ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ
Am a simple man, I see sotc I like
Great video!
Sometime we gotta get Davi onto A Hat in Time's soundtrack
This OST makes me so nostalgic
nice analysis.
Go for « those who remain » from shadow of the colossus
The best music I’ve ever heard
16:50 happy?This is very sad.
Indeed, since I was a child this has been my go to game to debunk the "Videogames are not art" argument.
PLS listen to blasphemous 1 and 2 it has an amazing music i would love to see your analysis.
You should take a look at the Undertale Yellow soundtrack, the genocide themes are amazing
React to "eternal shrine" maiden from touhou(may be "a sacred lot", "the highly responsive to prayers" and "civilization of magic" as well)
Great OST.
I just tried playing the PS2 version. I. SUCK.
I recently bought that version and its really unresponsive compared to the ps4 version at least in my experience.
@@maaki50 I was playing it on a portable emulation device too. Hard to tell where all the problems between bad/incorrect emulation, small screen visibility issues and player skill are.
@@signa8 The game is significantly less intuitive on the PS2 version, and also your character can be flung off colossi much easier since the physics were worse back then.
If you're used to the PS2 controls then you can choose to use those instead, on the PS4 version
Thank you for such deep insights on why these tracks are so genius !
Have you ever considered listening to the title screen track of "AI : The Somnium Files" ? The game itself is a giant play of words between I, AI, eye and ai (love in japanese). The track KokkAI hit me like a tidal wave and still haunts me to this day : ruclips.net/video/Zoi_qnVjaTk/видео.htmlsi=iPxRnbWd-6RI8d4T
Could you please React or play to No Straight Roads😊?
Dear Sony, please release the Ico Collection on PC.
Please do The Mystery in your Town from Touhou Double Spoiler
can you pls do "Sister Friede" from Dark souls 3 one day🙏
Have you ever evaluated the music from the Halo series?
you should listen to the attack on titan soundtracks, they are legendary. they give off like sadness and some betrayal like feelings from it
Day 1 trying to reaction for terraria ost
FUME KNIGHT THEME. I WILL NEVER STOP ASKING FOR IT, pretty please, kind sir.
