there are a few more tracks from both parts of hotline miami that are just gorgeous - M.O.O.N. - Dust - Perturbator - Miami Disco - Scattle - Knock Knock - Scattle - Inner Animal - Perturbator - Electric Dreams - Jasper Byrne - Hotline - Scattle - Remorse - Dubmood - Richard - Carpenter Brut - Roller Mobster - Carpenter Brut - Le Perv
Did you know that M.O.O.N was 15 when he recorded his music for HM? Also would love to hear Quixotic still by Moon,Divide by magna and Decade Dance by Jasper Byrne (for that evil feeling)
I feel like Perturbator and Carpenter Brut really blew up after Hotline Miami. Maybe they had an audience before the game but I wasn't even aware of the whole synthwave style before it. Hydrogen is THE song of Hotline Miami. First mission (right?), you hear this banger song start and you are wondering how the game actually is and BAM, the first enemy kills you in one hit. You restart, learn where the enemies are positioned and get further and further in the map. You learn the basics of the game to this song, such an iconic memory to me.
In fact, it's from the fourth level, "Decadeance" . If you don't know how much I'm grateful to have known this game not only because of the game itself, which is a work of art in itself, but also because of all the topics to which I was introduced by the eighties aesthetic, synthwave music, pixel art and how to forget its cinematographic inspirations such as: "taxi Driver", "full metal jacket" and of course "Drive".
I was a fan of Perturbator before hearing him in the first Hotline Miami, but he really blew up after the second game. Which is why Future Club is his most played song on Apple Music. He's the goat imo.
If you're planning on doing more Hotline Miami stuff, I'd be interested in seeing your opinions on Run by iamthekidyouknowwhatimean, which was featured in Hotline 2's OST. It's a very unique track, and one of most memorable ones for me, personally.
I was recently just walking outside and this just began playing. Every time that banger comes on i just imagine having a panic attack after having a mental breakdown while running from nothing.
The developers mentioned they simply made a game featuring the music they liked to listen to, and picked some of the most hypnotic tracks to create the atmosphere fitting the mix of psychedelic experiences and reality in Hotline Miami so well.
"Deep Cover" by Sun Araw is a song I would recommend from the FIRST Hotline Miami game. Not one of the more popular songs on the soundtrack, but it has such ambience to it that gets overlooked. The feeling it gives off when looking at the visuals from the actual game and one simple action: Waking up in your apartment.
the song itself puts off so much ambience that i like to see as jacket acknowledging what hes doing for example the lyrics "here i am" being him crying out for the authorities to stop him
It's funny how even after all this time, close to ten years after I played the games, I still instinctively tap my feet to M.O.O.N. and hear the gunshots, door slamming and death noises from the game. :D It really just puts you in that vibe.
Both Hotline's OSTs are legendary. I'd suggest checking out Bloodline, Le Perv, Musikk per Automatikk, In The Face of Evil, The Way Home, Fahkeet, Blizzard. There are honestly so many tracks that are totally worth listening
nice selections for the reation :D honorable mentions: "MOON - Dust" "Pertubator feat. Noir Deco - Technoir" "Magic sword - in the face of evil" , "the way home" "El Huervo - Rust" and ofc. the introtrack for HM2: "the green kingdom - Untitled", which kinda feels like a calm before s* hits the fan ;) hope after you got into burry the light, you might take a look into Metal Gear Risings soundtrack. the vocal tracks of the bossthemes all kinda tell their origin and are completely bangers (especially "red sun" and "The Only Thing I Know For Real")
I would also add "Coconuts - Silverlight", it's super moody and iconic in the game Would also love to see his reaction to metal gear rising especially "stains of time"
@@LionmightOfficialCould not believe how perfectly you were able to complement tracks that seemed already complete to me, especially the first one was just alien. I’m actually sad that you don’t have a video on Silent Hill yet, but I imagine you’re already extensively familiar with Akira Yomoaka’s work
7:20 Not exactly. In an interview the two main developers stated that they had a bunch of random music installed on their computer, liked how they sounded and tried to make the vibes of the game fit the music. So sort of the inverse i guess
80's vibe Pertubator was the best there was, his whole Sexualizer EP was peak, "Meet Jimmy" paints such a beautiful picture. Now his darker synth is not bad at all, but there's something about these hot Miami night songs that are just more earthly, closer in feeling than the fictitious "fighting fleshy robotic abominations in a cyberpunk dystopia" that excellent songs like "Death Squad", "Vers us" or "Excess (ft. Health)" can give you.
Hotline Miami has one of the most fun and jarring music I've heard. Perfect for the game it's on. You can feel the short and very alike pieces linked toguether with a small variation repeating once and again without tiring or overwhelming you. I'm honestly curious about your opinion on another of my favorite OST from videogames with SuperGiant's Transistor.
Transistor was a game I had in library for a few years and a buddy kept trying to get me to play it. Now we've lost touch, but I finally did ply it and the soundtrack isn't memorable, not like hotline. But I do remember loving it when I was playing it.
You should seriously check out Le Perv (Carpenter Brut), Fahkeet (Light Club), and Run (IAMTHEKIDYOUKNOWWHATIMEAN), they definitely stand out quite a bit in the games, a lot more memorable too.
The breathing take on Hydrogen made me remember the firelink shrine theme of the first dark souls. The strings make a melody that resembles inhaling and exhaling too, kind of produces a sense of relief or peace. Although in this case it's more of a catharsis when exhaling.
I don’t know how much time it’d take, but is there a chance for your covers to be released separately at the same time as the main video? They’re amazing and I wanna loop em haha Edit to clarify: just the ones like in this video where you add in your own flair to the tracks, even if they aren’t necessarily the whole track they’re incredibly well done and always a treat
I just love Hotline Miami. I really liked your cover of Daisuke. The violin, although it creates a slightly different atmosphere, still sounds cool. If you are going to make another video on the OST of this game, then I advise you to listen to “Roller Mobster - Carpenter Brut” and “Run - iamthekidyouknowwhatimean”. These are my favorite tracks. As well as the tracks “You are the blood - Castanets” and “Silver Lights - Coconuts”. I find them the most interesting in the game.
I love to see a fandom come alive whenever these videos come out! I still haven't played the games, but I've heard so much of their music just from random recommendations, and it's delightful to hear someone else's opinions on them.
Okay I was instantly addicted to the arpeggiator in Sexualizer! That whole song is a vibe!! Personally arpeggiators are my favorite things to play with on DAWs because you can easily lay down a foundation while also experimenting with the key and tune you want. Oooh simple rhythms that elicit any kind of dance are great in my book! I especially like the slow build ups because it gives you time to process the foundation while enjoying the new layers. It's so cool how just alternating staccato and legato can really make the music feel like a living entity instead of just background music! In general I don't actively seek out tracks like Daisuke El Huervo because they're better off as background music when I'm concentrated on something else. Still, I appreciate the structure and ambiance of the track!
You need to hear Divide from Hotline Miami 2 Btw most of the songs has that repeat beat because the game is a fast killing game so the player has to focus on the game while having something in the background
@@LionmightOfficialthen I reccomend Knock Knock by Scattle, It is a great song, but Its probably one of the most represenatives when It comes to Hotline Miami's message and theme.
I will live and die by how good Daisuke from El Huervo is. My favorite track from the series. Fits perfectly with how it plays in the cutscenes after each brutal level where you just chill and talk to your friend Beard.
Would be cool if you have a listen to the soundtrack of Otxo, which as a game is trying to capture the high-octane rush that is known to Hotline Miami. Plus the whole game, music and all, is made by one guy and I think it's really impressive
When i saw theM|O|O|N cover i was like "if its is Hydrogen, hes either going to really love it or really hate it" Also my first time experiencing the game was tripping off a tab of acid while laying on the bed with the LED going and by buddy was stuck on the Paris level for a while then at some point left while he was in the apartment so it was playing Deep Cover and I fell out of existence momentarily listening to that masterpiece
One of my favorite game soundtracks and an important contribution to the modern synthwave ouvre! Also, your discussions of the simplicity of some of these tunes reminds me of the One Note Samba in this regard. Great vid!
Perturbator is so damn good Deep Cover by Sun Arraw (or also called War Anus) and Silver Light by Coconut are trully experimental, never heard this kind of music in a game if isnt a experimental game like Postal 1 and Cry of Fear with that wierd sad/horror music like.
Hydrogen is a clean and simple song, but it manages to drill itself into you while playing the game. I just remember grinding a level over and over with such tension while this song is playing. Your analysis of the the repeated tension/release fits so well with the gameplay loop. Very tense moments, as you mentally prepare and commit to attacking an enemy, followed by immediate relief for a while if you pull it off.
Please do more hotline miami soundtrack reaction :3 It's pretty awesome, there is also hotline miami 2. Some of my fav ones are >Quixotic - M.O.O.N >Dust - M.O.O.N >Le perv - Perturbator >Remorse - Scattle
Dude, Hotline Miami OST is a masterpiece, both games are amazing. My favorite from the first one is Miami Disco, and from the second one is Sexualizer, both are by Pertubartor, and they are amazing.
I know I'm like two weeks late to this video, but like man I really like what you have to say about some of my favorite tracks from one of my all time favorite games. The main two really points I really liked from you was how hydrogen is like a breath and your all breathing....and I think that is absolutely a brilliant take. Cuz my take on Hydrogen from actually playing the game is that its like a heartbeat where if you make one misstep its all over and spills disaster and death. So you got to keep the heart beat going longer. Now El Huervo is like my ALL time favorite song from Hotline Miami, just the absolute calm and peace it brings just listening to that song especially when its late a night and your on a drive. Its so relaxing and makes me feel like im floating in another existence and makes me feel this sense of tranquility, and your point on how its a similar vibe we can all come to listen to it as one and feel the same is great.
This is the type of music I always wanted to get into, but I just dont even know where to start. Stuff like this makes my heart race and gets me moving, I absolutely love it with all my body, even if on the outside I'm just lightly bumping my head. Especially hydrogen, which has lived in my head rent-free for years and years. Even the slow ones, which make me want to drink coffee at a cafe on a rainy night while I do research for my book. I loved hearing you talk about them, and I loved your additions to them. I know you can't circulate them online for legal reasons, but whats up, I'll meet you out back of the supermarket and buy your mixtape straight out the trunk.
Now you gotta do Payday series. PLEASE! The game had a crossover with Hotline Miami and made a few unique tracks to it called "Evil eye", "Breath of Death" and "Hot Pursuit"
I've got a few songs I'm still listening to since I first played both Hotline Miami 1 and 2 which I think are quite underrated. - M.O.O.N. - Dust (HM2) -El Huervo - Turf (HM) -Mega Drive - Slum Lord (HM2) -Jasper Byrne - Miami (HM) -Scattle - It's safe now (HM)
Oh man, I resonate so much with how you're reacting to these. Especially as Hydrogen built up over time. I remember playing Hotline Miami for the first time and I kept dying over and over because I was too focused on the music. Specifically the level that uses Hydrogen is also one of the earlier ones with a very dark context in terms of what's going down in the environment, and this was the perfect track to represent that level's sense of unease. This game and its sequel are definitely the best examples out there of how a creative game developer can use a soundtrack entirely composed of licensed music to great effect. My favorite track in Hotline Miami though is definitely Miami Disco by Perturbator, used in the level "Push It" which is set in a nightclub, and it fits PERFECTLY.
If you wanna do another video on Hotline Miami, I would recommend to look at either: El Huervo - Turf, Carpenter Brut - Roller Mobster, |M|O|O|N| - Dust, Pertubator - Future Club, Carpenter Brut - Le Perv or my personal favourite: Light Club - Fahkeet
The synth in Moon Hydrogen reminds me of that when you put an old Nokia or Morotola phone near a radio while someone was calling in. This rhythmical noise would start before the phone would even ring. Mobile radio waves interfering with the FM frequency of the radio,
Love your genuine reactions bro, I can tell there's a lot at work going on in your head while listening haha. Also great to learn some musical knowledge from you
It would be interesting to see your reaction to Deep Cover by Sun Araw, which was featured on Hotline Miami soundtrack as well It's a very different kind of song and it took me a few listens to fully get into it
OMG!!! It's been so long with this game and I'm still in love since day 1, I love your reactions to the music, so nice to see someone analyze and describe how they perceive the music and even give us a bit of a stringed interpretation!! I thank you and the algorythm for suggesting this! If you do any more tracks I'd be thrilled to watch, almost all pieces from both games are top notch!
Anyone think he lowkey looks like The Son when he's smiling? Or even just in general but especially when he's smiling. I could definitely see this guy in a stylish 80s - 90s crime action film like Johnny Mnemonic or something.
I really hope you explore more songs from this game, so many of them give that synth vibe in such a nice way, my personal recommendation for one to look at is Vengeance or Knock Knock
I think hydrogen as being just a single atom, so the song features a singular sound, that didididi thing :D it's like a single point comes to create such a beautiful scape in sound and in matter.
I think you'll really enjoy the band "Gunship." They are in this same music genre scene but they write more traditional song with lyrics and Verse/Chorus structures. Song suggestions: Tech Noir and/or Dark All Day. They make really awesome music videos too if you want to check those out.
I would love for you to look at more Perturbator man! His stuff is so deep and takes so many twists and turns in terms of themes over the course of his albums. His more recent works "New Model" and "Lustful Sacraments" moves away from the synthwave theme and is a lot darker and moody. Guy is a genius with synths.
If you ever wanted to hear this type of OST in terms of tracks from independent artists picked for the game, I can recommend Ruiner (top down action game with cyberpunk esthetic). But they go further with choosing much more gritty, melancholic and sometimes more brutal music than Hotline Miami. Even if not for the video, I would still recommend to check it out. Love segments with your playing, it really makes you feel same music with the different perspective ❤
My thoughts on Hydrogen’s title is that it’s the simplest possible element. One proton. One electron. That’s it. And yet look what it can do.
I like this take.
Yeessssssssss preach fam
That's one hell of a way to put it
DAMN THAT'S A GODDAMN GOOD EXPLANATION.
I’ve never thought about it this way. immaculate take !! :D

Yeah roller mobster is really cool drive dark synthwave
what this guy said, if SPG is going to do a part 2 of hotline miami he needs to listen to some of those
Scattle Knock Knock and M.O.O.N. Dust are my favorites off the soundtrack.
Did you know that M.O.O.N was 15 when he recorded his music for HM? Also would love to hear Quixotic still by Moon,Divide by magna and Decade Dance by Jasper Byrne (for that evil feeling)
for real? that's crazy he's talented
Damn 15? Guys going places
15!?!?! Thats it i'm giving up...
I feel like Perturbator and Carpenter Brut really blew up after Hotline Miami. Maybe they had an audience before the game but I wasn't even aware of the whole synthwave style before it.

Nope, Lmao. The song of the first mission is "Paris" also by M|O|O|N. Still a banger though. Hydrogen sounds in Decadence, Neighbord, and Deadline
In fact, it's from the fourth level, "Decadeance" . If you don't know how much I'm grateful to have known this game not only because of the game itself, which is a work of art in itself, but also because of all the topics to which I was introduced by the eighties aesthetic, synthwave music, pixel art and how to forget its cinematographic inspirations such as: "taxi Driver", "full metal jacket" and of course "Drive".
All that yapping just to be wrong 😭😭😭
This comment is so wrong, it almost reads like it's AI generated lmao
I was a fan of Perturbator before hearing him in the first Hotline Miami, but he really blew up after the second game. Which is why Future Club is his most played song on Apple Music.
He's the goat imo.
If you're planning on doing more Hotline Miami stuff, I'd be interested in seeing your opinions on Run by iamthekidyouknowwhatimean, which was featured in Hotline 2's OST. It's a very unique track, and one of most memorable ones for me, personally.
I hope he does it too. It's a strange track but my personal favorite one.
I second this.
"what the heck is this wacky soundtrack?"
>>>>>>
"HAHA REVERSE GUITAR GOES 🗣️🗣️🗣️🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶"
I was recently just walking outside and this just began playing.
Every time that banger comes on i just imagine having a panic attack after having a mental breakdown while running from nothing.
Run is fantastic
The developers mentioned they simply made a game featuring the music they liked to listen to, and picked some of the most hypnotic tracks to create the atmosphere fitting the mix of psychedelic experiences and reality in Hotline Miami so well.
"Deep Cover" by Sun Araw is a song I would recommend from the FIRST Hotline Miami game. Not one of the more popular songs on the soundtrack, but it has such ambience to it that gets overlooked.

That song while on acid is a nice experience
That's the one that stuck with me the longest. Along with Hydrogen.
the song itself puts off so much ambience that i like to see as jacket acknowledging what hes doing for example the lyrics "here i am" being him crying out for the authorities to stop him
Horse steppin is such a psychedelic masterpiece that I often forget it’s from a video game
The artist who made Sexualizer (Perturbator) is one of the best synthwave artists to ever do it. His music is out of this world.
It's funny how even after all this time, close to ten years after I played the games, I still instinctively tap my feet to M.O.O.N. and hear the gunshots, door slamming and death noises from the game. :D It really just puts you in that vibe.
Masterpieces. Game and the song.
When i hear the into to sexualizer, i hear tires screeching
Same! I can see myself flowing through that map where you save the girl, grabbing anything that can do damage on the way
Hydrogen is such an incredible track, it really inspired me and my approach to making beats; simplicity doesn't mean simple.
Daisuke is the kind of songs I like to listen to as I walk through the city. By far one of my favorite tracks of the saga.
It's all on the house
Both Hotline's OSTs are legendary. I'd suggest checking out Bloodline, Le Perv, Musikk per Automatikk, In The Face of Evil, The Way Home, Fahkeet, Blizzard. There are honestly so many tracks that are totally worth listening

Super happy to see you cover this! This game practically made my taste in music what it is! 😮
Today I learned about the existence of the electric violin
ruclips.net/user/postUgkxhbP2ZZGeZ5SD9JU6xH05wuw2q6qJuxVN
out of all the previous videos ive seen his violin definitely compliments these songs the most
I just love Hotline Miami. I really liked your cover of Daisuke. The violin, although it creates a slightly different atmosphere, still sounds cool.
If you are going to make another video on the OST of this game, then I advise you to listen to “Roller Mobster - Carpenter Brut” and “Run - iamthekidyouknowwhatimean”. These are my favorite tracks. As well as the tracks “You are the blood - Castanets” and “Silver Lights - Coconuts”. I find them the most interesting in the game.
I love to see a fandom come alive whenever these videos come out! I still haven't played the games, but I've heard so much of their music just from random recommendations, and it's delightful to hear someone else's opinions on them.

I want to exhaust the first game before heading to the second.
@@LionmightOfficialthen I reccomend Knock Knock by Scattle, It is a great song, but Its probably one of the most represenatives when It comes to Hotline Miami's message and theme.
Back in 2019 when I found out Hotline Miami existed and fell in love with it, I've been listening to the OST of 1 & 2 basically everyday 💜
It's so cool to see you go through some of my favourite games soundtracks!
Super excited and hopeful for a Payday 2 video in future!
I will live and die by how good Daisuke from El Huervo is. My favorite track from the series. Fits perfectly with how it plays in the cutscenes after each brutal level where you just chill and talk to your friend Beard.

I loved hearing you talk about them, and I loved your additions to them. I know you can't circulate them online for legal reasons, but whats up, I'll meet you out back of the supermarket and buy your mixtape straight out the trunk.
Now you gotta do Payday series. PLEASE! The game had a crossover with Hotline Miami and made a few unique tracks to it called "Evil eye", "Breath of Death" and "Hot Pursuit"
Your violin really integrated with Sexualizer and I loved it. Where can I find a complete version?
I highly recommend the OST of both Bastion and Transistor. Love the soundtracks you pick!
I've got a few songs I'm still listening to since I first played both Hotline Miami 1 and 2 which I think are quite underrated.
- M.O.O.N. - Dust (HM2)
-El Huervo - Turf (HM)
-Mega Drive - Slum Lord (HM2)
-Jasper Byrne - Miami (HM)
-Scattle - It's safe now (HM)
Oh man this is gonna be good. The first and second game have an amazing soundtrack.
Cool reaction video, and great soundtrack. I love the Cindy and Fat Chocobo in the background btw, nice mascots. :)
Oh man, I resonate so much with how you're reacting to these. Especially as Hydrogen built up over time. I remember playing Hotline Miami for the first time and I kept dying over and over because I was too focused on the music. Specifically the level that uses Hydrogen is also one of the earlier ones with a very dark context in terms of what's going down in the environment, and this was the perfect track to represent that level's sense of unease. This game and its sequel are definitely the best examples out there of how a creative game developer can use a soundtrack entirely composed of licensed music to great effect. My favorite track in Hotline Miami though is definitely Miami Disco by Perturbator, used in the level "Push It" which is set in a nightclub, and it fits PERFECTLY.
Oh my god damn the strings starting at 15:07. Elevate my soul why dont you good sir 😂Have a sub my dude. Good stuff!
Please do More of Hotline Miami!! The whole soundtrack for Both of you Can!!! Every song is Amazing!!!
I need a full version of that Hydrogen + Strings cover
If you wanna do another video on Hotline Miami, I would recommend to look at either: El Huervo - Turf, Carpenter Brut - Roller Mobster, |M|O|O|N| - Dust, Pertubator - Future Club, Carpenter Brut - Le Perv or my personal favourite: Light Club - Fahkeet
Both Hotline Miami 1 & 2 have absolutely AMAZING soundtracks. Please please listen to more from these games.
The synth in Moon Hydrogen reminds me of that when you put an old Nokia or Morotola phone near a radio while someone was calling in. This rhythmical noise would start before the phone would even ring. Mobile radio waves interfering with the FM frequency of the radio,
Justo he terminado esta obra maestra indie y me traes un análisis. Un servicio 10/10.
He’s actually sitting on your back RIGHT NOW watching what you do. Don’t look back at him or he’ll know you know.
@@Tweedle-Stupid OH NOOOOO
Love your genuine reactions bro, I can tell there's a lot at work going on in your head while listening haha. Also great to learn some musical knowledge from you
15:00 maybe it was not intentional
but he created a remix of hydrogen and dust ....and that was phenomenal.....
Please do a review of the F.U.R.I. songs Make This Right y by The Toxic Avenger, and You're Mine by Carpenter Brut.
You're mine is absolute sexo
It would be interesting to see your reaction to Deep Cover by Sun Araw, which was featured on Hotline Miami soundtrack as well
It's a very different kind of song and it took me a few listens to fully get into it
OMG!!! It's been so long with this game and I'm still in love since day 1, I love your reactions to the music, so nice to see someone analyze and describe how they perceive the music and even give us a bit of a stringed interpretation!! I thank you and the algorythm for suggesting this!
If you do any more tracks I'd be thrilled to watch, almost all pieces from both games are top notch!
HL2's She Swallowed Burning Coals is by far my favorite ost from the series with HL2's main menu theme being close in second
Anyone think he lowkey looks like The Son when he's smiling? Or even just in general but especially when he's smiling. I could definitely see this guy in a stylish 80s - 90s crime action film like Johnny Mnemonic or something.
More like The Father than The Son, there is a resemblance though. Something something get a grip
I really hope you explore more songs from this game, so many of them give that synth vibe in such a nice way, my personal recommendation for one to look at is Vengeance or Knock Knock
We need MORE
Audio Director (whole game studio is two guys)
I put this Soundtrack almost every day to clean my house ... is simply a masterpiece.
Not only is the music solid vibes, but when you're focused on the game, this is amazing background music. Really nailed the 80's trance aesthetic
I think hydrogen as being just a single atom, so the song features a singular sound, that didididi thing :D it's like a single point comes to create such a beautiful scape in sound and in matter.
Love Daisuke, heck, I love El Huervo's stuff in general. I recommend Turf from the first Hotline Miami game, also by him, amazing song.
Man I would love if you checked out the rest of El Huervos tracks. He quickly became my favorite after playing hotline miami 1 and 2
the repetition of the hotline miami 1 tracks (last two tracks) shows how psychedelic the first game is.
like every thing about the first game is super trippy, im talking about the story, the art style and the soundtrack.
My personal favorites are "Voyager" and "Miami" from Jasper Burne
I think you'll really enjoy the band "Gunship." They are in this same music genre scene but they write more traditional song with lyrics and Verse/Chorus structures. Song suggestions: Tech Noir and/or Dark All Day. They make really awesome music videos too if you want to check those out.
Pedazo de improvisación. Bravo.
I would love for you to look at more Perturbator man! His stuff is so deep and takes so many twists and turns in terms of themes over the course of his albums. His more recent works "New Model" and "Lustful Sacraments" moves away from the synthwave theme and is a lot darker and moody. Guy is a genius with synths.
Hydrogen is still the alarm tone on my phone, no way you can sleep through that one 😂
IAMTHEKIDYOUKNOWWHATIMEAN - Run
If you ever wanted to hear this type of OST in terms of tracks from independent artists picked for the game, I can recommend Ruiner (top down action game with cyberpunk esthetic). But they go further with choosing much more gritty, melancholic and sometimes more brutal music than Hotline Miami. Even if not for the video, I would still recommend to check it out. Love segments with your playing, it really makes you feel same music with the different perspective ❤
Ooh PLEASE!! i wuold love seeing you reacting to Payday 2 Soundtracks, they're bangers (Especially: Razormind, Odd to greed, and Mayhem in suit)
Emperor, its that you?
Scattle and Jasper Byrne's works are made for the game, and they're easily the best parts of both games, at least to me.
Let's be honest, we're all here because of 9:00
I was here because of Turf (sadly wasn't included)
"That'll be $14.50, Sir. Your Pizzas are on the counter to your left."
bro looks like a cyberpunk 2022 character and im all for it
That first addition with the electronic fiddle going quick was cake.
