Alatreon Theme (My Original Composition)

- A storm is brewing in the night
Looming wings of oblivion,
As thunder roars, they scream in fright:
The Blazing Black Dragon!
Rage, chaos, death and despair
Erupt in frost and flame,
Old and young hunters beware,
Never utter its name.
- A bit of poetry is fun sometimes! :)

Triumph of the dawn, the Blazing Black Dragon, Alatreon.
The track is longer (almost twice the average theme length) and features sections that reference multiple elements, including brass and men's voices for fire (and crackly percussion/sfx), piano and women's voices for ice (and sparkly percussion), and synth/distorsion in places to add a bit of electricity.
There are three major motives that return in the track, sometimes overlapping. I wanted some ancient instruments to convey the notion that this dragon has been around since ancient times, leaving very few witnesses. It's epic, loud, features lots of big percussion.
This track took many attempts and had multiple versions because of the nature of the dragon, something disastrous and scary, fighting my urge to make it heroic. I had to go back and make it darker, scarier, multiple times, and I completely discarded many other ideas.
Let me know what you think, and please support! :)
every element gets its own little section in the song from what i've noticed. as others pointed out in specific points in the song a focus on specific instrruments is put on i.e chimes for ice
seems to be accompaning the backround changes somewhat really nice.
I tried :) thanks for listening!
Your background arts are insane too, Alatreon in space
It just seemed right, not sure why lol
I was looking for images that mixed the elements, and a bunch of galaxy looking things came up. It reminds me of vintage fantasy art from the 70s or 80s. I thought it looked dope haha
@@nwsiaki looks dope
@@nwsiaki Actually goes extremely hard, beyond dope
Every monster hunter video I watch I always see his face I cant escape him
@@Teostra_MF_White you mean me?
My favorite elder dragon
This is absolutely fire (and ice and lightning and others)
Nice one ;)
Yo what
Didn’t expect to find this in my recommendations today
Nice! Feel free to browse the other themes I made and let me know what you think!
Nathanaël, you’ve created once again another banger. These sound tracks are always such a treat to listen too. This may just be my perspective but you somehow manage to capture both the hunters struggle and might against this black dragon whilst still expressing the strength and intimidation you feel while facing Alatreon in combat. I’ll be looking forwards to your future compositions, especially Velkhana (or Fatalis maybe?)
We gotta get this mans ost’s in a mod for mh! I want to use them in mhwi! If i knew how to create a mod and do it, i would myself.
Thank you so much for the nice comment :)
I’ll be posting a video of this track with gameplay shortly!
OUGH my lord... all of the combinations of the instruments that are usually associated with various elements (though that may have not been intentional that's just what i thought!!!!) this is so so good... adore the chanting you included so so much, your themes are always wonderful!!! i hope you had as much fun making this as i have had listening to it huehehehe
I’m glad you enjoy it! It was fun near the end, but the process for this one was unfortunately gruelling for the most part. I couldn’t settle for anything, and then after days of work, I realized I didn’t like it, so I started over! 😅 I’m quite happy with the final product.
This is a welcome suprise im so glad i saw you upload, alatreon is super cool i love his reverse orientated scales. Your theme sounds awesome, truly fitting for the blazing black dragon
I love the clinking percussion in the background! It's really adds a dynamic feel to the whole piece. Very well done!
Alatreon is my favorite elder dragon from all across the series, and my favorite dragon in all of fiction, I wear an Alatreon pin on my winter jacket, I love your original composition. Fits very well with the theme of the series between the rustic and classical elements, as well as the segments dedicated to his different elemental powers.
Glad you enjoy it!
@@nwsiaki of course I did, you’re very talented
Oh my god it's incredible !! I think it's by far my favorite of all the themes you've composed. This one is insane, can we expect a phase 2 ?
Keep going we love your songs ❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
I’m so glad you like it, thank you for the compliment! I don’t plan on making a phase 2, got lots of other monsters and games to try first, but there will be a video with gameplay and an extended version. :)
I’ve known about your work for about a year now and I’m glad your still going strong!
Thanks for sticking around so long!
KILLING it with these compositions, my guy! Would LOVE to see you work on something like Gogmazios or Dalamadur.
You deserve way more subs the level of composition is great, also if you put your music on spotify I would definitely put it in my playlists :)
Honestly love listening to your works. You need to be hired to make the music for the games, as you breath life into how unquice each creature is.
You’re too kind :) glad you enjoy it!
If you're cooking something up rn just know that i'm hyped
Love this! I can't wait to see what you do with Fatalis!
this is so good that im sad that this song is not in the game
Thank you :)
Majestic as heck, keep it up!
Lore acurate Alatreon do NOT exist !
-Guild sages famous last words
Perfect NICE!!!!
Me encantó ❤
Sick composition dude! 🔥Love it. Also do you still have the background images? Especially the first one. I would love to download it 🥺
I’ll get back to you about the backgrounds.
i don't play monster hunter but, your music is awsome, can be used for boss fights
Thanks! Yeah it’s basically boss fight music. Even the village themes I composed could be used in other games.
@@nwsiaki now all you need is a game boss
I’ll be showcasing this music with the monster in battle (with gameplay footage). You’ll get a taste of what it could do. :)
@@nwsiaki add bloopers on another vid or after it, for sh*tz and giggles
@@nwsiaki i subbed to your channel, now just waiting for the boss fight
まさか禁忌の古龍まで出るとは…。この曲のラスボス感に圧倒されました。やっぱりnathanael Wsiaki さんが作る曲最高!!❤アルバトリオンが出たならミラボレアスとかも出てきそう。この先が楽しみになってきました！😆
Miraboreas is a way cooler name than Fatalis tbh
Amazing 100/100
Also....what do people even use to make music. I've always wanted to try making music for fun but I always get so lost trying to look at what programs exist.
Thanks for listening!
I’ll soon be making a video showing what I use. However, as you said, there are many options and it can get technical (and expensive). I can offer a few tips for people trying to get into composition. Do you have musical training or experience? Some tools are more user friendly than others. The main tool you’ll need to start is a DAW. I use Logic Pro X. Some are free, with some restrictions.
@@nwsiaki I have no training no XD I've just always wanted to try and make something, but as you say it can get very expensive. I'm not good with tech either so it'll probably stay just a dream.
@ohok45624 there’s lots you could do, even if it’s just to dabble in it. Some tools are much more user friendly. If it’s your dream, start with a bit of research, invest the time before you invest too much money. Learning about music and how to compose can be interesting and fun too!
Search “easiest DAW to use”, and then look up “how to get started with (name of the DAW you chose)”. I’ll do a few videos showing what I use and how I work.
If you have an Apple product, they usually come with Garageband, which is what I started on. It comes with tons of instruments and presets you can use to have fun. You can select loops, drag and assemble them.
@@nwsiaki just a side note, I would LOVE a video showing your setup. I’m a drumkit/percussionist guy, but have mostly done session and live stuff without dabbling too much in the production side. I’ll be looking forward to it! Would your video be aimed more at beginners or at already-experienced producers?
@martyparty52 Cool! I think I’ll have a video showing what I use (and showcasing the sounds a bit), and a separate video explaining how I got started (for beginners), tips, etc.
Hello! I’m not sure how putting stuff on Spotify really works as a creator so I understand if it’s not really feasible, but I’d love to add some of your music to my MH playlist cause it just gives off the MH vibe so well. Is it something you’re not really looking towards doing atm? Again I don’t really know how it works so I understand if not.
I’m always so curious as to how you’d handle choir, is there a software for that or do you actually hire a choir???
Like instruments, there’s a whole market for sampling choirs or solo singers. They basically record choirs and through some engine, make what they recorded playable on a keyboard.
The ones I used in this recording are Wotan male choir and Freya female choir by Strezov Sampling.

Huge mate!
My CPU would agree 😂 over 80 tracks, + audio effects on most, the fan kicked in a few times lol
Thanks for listening and commenting SamSergeant.
@@nwsiaki Haha nice!
What samples librairies are you using ?
Ok I swear I’ll make a video showing what I have! In the meantine:
It’s primarily Symphobia 1 for strings and brass, Wotan/Freya/Rhodobe by Strezov for choirs, a few instruments are from the Kontakt and Logic libraries, and a variety for the percussion, including Dark Era by Tarilonte. The crwth (that medieval sounding bowed instrument) and flute are also from Dark Era.
❤composition and instrumentation was brilliant but where this fell apart for me was the singing. The voices sound odd, kinda like they muffled? Maybe making them louder would fix the issue(if it's an issue in your opinion. I personally didn't like it. I'm obviously not a pro music critic). This theme, otherwise, is genuinely insane. Sounds like something you'd use to make alatreon the final boss of Iceborne - the blazing black dragon. Kinda sounds weird though. Almost like you encompassing elemental shifts? Maybe me watching the background caused me to feel this way lmao
Thanks for sharing and listening! I compose the music before creating the background, and it was purposely composed to symbolize the element changes. Feel free to read the description of the video for more info on my process.
Voices should be in the background a bit, but not muffled… I wanted them as one of the instruments, not a key feature. They (choirs) are not saying real words, so I thought it would distract if they were too loud. It’s mostly for texture.
Can I use these songs in my animated series
It depends on a few factors. If you contact me through my website we can work out the details.
www.wsiakimusic.com/contact
I could also compose new music for your series. Let’s talk!
finally after months it is here thanks to this monster and his original theme I discovered this wonderful saga thank you I was waiting for a long time now the next one is the banbaro right??? and then it's xeno'jiiva??? perhaps?? I hope so because he's another one I want to see and here's an idea on his theme you could kind of leave a bit of an alien vibe since the xeno'jiiva looks like a xenomorph even in the name xeno'jiiva I don't hope that It's going to be epic like my alatreon since he's a fucking black dragon but you can surprise me
I was struggling with this one quite a bit. It took me more time, partly because my ideas kept changing, but also because I wanted it longer. There was pressure Alatreon’s theme to be even bigger, and I missed my target a couple of times.
But here it is! Hope you enjoy. I do have ideas for the others, and I agree about Xeno’jiiva having an alien sound. There’s gonna be some strange sounding instruments and synths for sure.
I would like you to do something for me like if you have a theme song editor on Android I would like to create some themes like you but I use a cell phone and I'm not good at it if you have an app you can recommend to me, I could talk to you and you could give me tips while I do my theme like orchestral everything I should use I wanted to be like you it would be a dream and look at the other message I sent you if you see this one before the other it's about the favor I did for you
There are many apps, it depends what you want to do and how user friendly you want it to be. I would just research “music making apps for Android” or “apps like Garageband for Android” to start, “Free DAW for Android phone”. There is also Soundtrap which is an online, user friendly DAW. Just don’t forget to save your projects.
Note: using any tool takes practice. Look at tutorials and have fun with the app, click on things to see what happens. Take the time to explore and try things.
hey look, it's my least favorite monster in world!
maybe i'd hate him a little less if this were playing during the fight!
Yep, I can totally understand the love/hate for Alatreon in World. Conceptually, it’s pretty interesting. I’m also not too stirred by the original soundtrack, but it fits the sound of World much more than mine, and it did stress me out :)
