I like how the universal experience of this game is hearing the lyrics in the Cafe and immediately stopping what you're doing to just vibe for a bit.
not gonna lie this hit me like a truck, like once the lyrics kicked on i was like wait, this game full on has lyrics for the cafe? or is this the whole town? WAIT IS THE WHOLE GAME LIKE THIS, IS THERE MORE LYRICAL SONGS, THIS SOUNDS GOOD! BLESS INDIE GAMES MADE WITH LOVE!
You ever walk into a building at the first town, and hear one of the most heavenly songs ever?
Sat there for so long because I didnt want to leave. Lol
I've done that woth one game... Cassette Beasts. This song does a great job of helping setting the mood for the town so well. It's such a chill song.
One of my favorites to sing on🎶 Thank you for listening everyone!
You did a great job, I love this song! Really looking forward to what other masterpieces you and Joel Baylis have created in the final version of the game next year
100/10
I was streaming the game, this song came on and I just stopped playing, closed my eyes and just fell into a trance. Such a fantastic song and now I’m glad I can listen to it anywhere. Thank you and Joel for making such a perfect song.
@@AsuraOmnis Music that makes you feel like this is always the goal when making it, thank you so much for the kind words. Can’t wait for you to hear the rest of the soundtrack!
@@clemence_cafe ❤️
Y'all remember playing a Pokemon game, and getting so fixed on a pretty musical track that you just sat there, listening without playing for a good while? Never did I think a game could ever recreate that feeling for me. What an absolute delight 🧡
I didn't expect lyrics in a game like this and honestly this song has blown me away I sat there just listening it through for an hour.
It feels nostalgic but in a sort of sad way.
Search "saudade", yw
there is a german word for that feeling, its not exactly how you worded it but it is pretty close, Sehnsucht.
As for english, the closest thing I could think of is Melancholy
Have you played any Persona game?
@@Miduuza yup I've played 1 to 5.
Playing the game for the first time and I'm kinda stuck. You see, I don't wanna get out of the town or else the song will stop.
Btw. the lyrics:
Do you feel it
The lack of wind but abundance of air
We’re all in the same ship
Floating somewhere without any aim
But at least we’re together
As we tether and link our arms as we think
That there’s no getting out here
I don’t know you but we’ll make the most of
Whereever we are now
Slow floating under the stars now
It’s okay to be uncertain, cause I’m certain it’s fine
To be floating here for a while
With you, wherever we are now
We’re not dead
suspended in a place of hush, not upset
Just puzzled by the sense of bemusement
It’s amusing losing all of our direction, now we’re lost
tell me which way you wanna go
Tell me how far you’re thinking
and I swear if you wanna go
I’ll be right there by your side
And honestly it can go
Either way but I think I’m alright
With the chance that we might end up
Right back here
Whereever we are now
Slow floating under the stars now
It’s okay to be uncertain, cause I’m certain it’s fine
To be floating here for a while
With you, wherever we are now
Thanks to Joel Baylis himself for providing them like 10 days back :D
Love it ^^
OH, she says "SHIP"
okay
@@LastHazzerd otherwise the "Floating somewhere without any aim" line after it wouldn't make as much sense 😅
What a beautiful fucking song.
@@LastHazzerdyeah I was hearing something else too 😅😂
@@Valkenhyne It would still make sense, though! You know, floating... sorry.
how dare you make such a good song! i cant make any progress in the actual game when the cafe song goes this hard
this game does things to me, man
Such a pleasant song, feels like a warm hug.
This
yea
I did not expect the first main track from a Pokémon-like to hit as hard as this did. Excellent work, excellent song.
"It's ok to be uncertain because I'm certain it's fine" is the most wholesome/feel good thing I heard in a while in a song. This game and its OST are such a mood ! Thanks again for this Joel and Shelby !
My fiancee and I are in a long distance relationship, and this song really hits home with us.
Thank you so much for your work.
Cheers.
wow that’s awesome, thanks for the kind words, nice one 🤙
Same. And she's even the one who got me Cassette Beasts. This song always makes me think of her.
ik this is a year-old comment but I hope you're both doing well :)
@@SpiralDjinn thank you, I finally was able to move in with her in Europe, and everything is going very well.
I never thought it would be possible to feel nostalgic for a song I never heard. I played the demo and I was already interested in the game but if the soundtrack is even half the quality of this song then that alone is worth the cost of admission.
This is exactly how I feel about this song too; nostalgia for something I don't know. It's a really special feeling
woah! didnt know other people felt the same
As someone who feels lost and aimless in life, this song touches me deeply. Most of the times I listen to it I get teary eyed, specially when I'm feeling down. Thank you for composing this beautiful song! Not just this one, but this entire game's OST is a true masterpiece.
Without a doubt one of the very best monster collecting RPG out there, and the music is one of the biggest reasons for that.
Bro, that's an excellent way to describe it
Emotional stability was bad enough. I will listen to this in the car and just start bawling. Love every second of it. Thank you for making me feel again.
hope you’re doin well, dude.
@@TheRealRizky Thank you. That means a lot.
Literally instantly became one of my favorite Game OSTs ever
I have to say that "a lack of wind but abundance of air" is a wonderful line that works perfectly to set the feeling of where this appears in the demo.
Lyrics in the song surprised me, but after a bit to get used to it I have to say it works very well.
This song has been living in my head since launch day and I just love it. Amazing soundtrack, amazing game!
After hearing this song in the game so many times it is genuinely impossible for me not to sing along. AT LEAST mouth the words lol. It's so good
This song smash. I fell face down on my bed and blasted this....over and over again
Xbox user. We jus got this. Thank you
I downloaded Cassette Beasts from GamePass. the second you get to the first town and this song played, It made me think so much. I felt a deep nostalgia for staying up late playing pokemon games on my gameboy as a kid when I should have been sleeping for school in the morning.
But also it feels melodically more mature than those memories. Almost like the game is as old as I am (33) and is reassuring me that everything is ok. its ok to "get lost here for a while now".
Beautifully dreamy and catchy. The way the drums come out of half time at around 2:30 and hit the toms is such a nice build up to the final chorus.
Thank you for making me feel so much in just under 4 minutes. Also helps the game is fantastic too ^_^
Kayleigh is the best. She gave the player a very rare monster to start off with. Those cost 20 fusion mats!
This song caught me way off guard bro, one minute I'm playing this game and the next minute this has got me tearing up, beautiful song.
This needs to be on the radio
Just got gifted this game for Christmas and I never felt more certain I was going to love a game as soon as a got to Harbourtown. I love that the lyrics kick in when you enter a building.
Love going bk to harbourtown jus to hear this song buy some cassettes and rest up for the nxt leg of my journey
This song was what made me fall in love with the demo, and I'm glad I finally found it. Really can't wait for the rest of the game and the rest of the music.
So far my favourite Track of Cassette Beasts - and this version is so much clearer, crisper, "bassier" and oh so more lovable than in the demo ^^ said it before, will say it again: the song matches the scene in the game so damn well, I'm a bit in love :D
instantly after my first game session, came here to search for this, very VERY good to start a game experience with such a great song!!
室内室外bgm的人声切换把游戏整体水平拉高了一个档次。这首歌无疑是我的2023 Top1，它正在逐渐从一个普通的游戏bgm变成我日常生活的bgm。感谢音乐创作者们的付出！
This song is just lovely. Full of pleasant feelings. Smiled throughout my listen. Wonderful job.
Just bought this game on a whim a few hours ago and it's great, I had no expectations going in but wow I love it so much already. Been going through a rough part of my life, but this song genuinely felt like it's helped me stop and think. Thank you
When I heard this in the cafe
I knew this game would be special
This has become one of my favorite video game songs of all time!
I can't stop listening to this song
If we don't get a cassette release of this OST, it'll be a crime against the very nature of the game.
This game fills the very hole in me that so many others have left after years and years, and the music is such a HUGE part of that.
Vinyl and cassette versions are on preorder now 💖
I just played the demo of the game, I was surprised when the vocals started, but I loved it. It fit the moment perfectly. I love it!
Only recently started playing this game and this song gives me such comfort just hanging with the characters in the game in town, I love this song
Started the game yesterday, this song is stunning.
Been humming it non stop.
😊
This song and the gravity of its lyrics in tandem to the plot of the game are Masterfully done and woven together, so excited to see the future of this game
Was in a pretty bad place when i picked up cassette beasts. Just hanging out at the town bar hearing that soothing voice, made me stay in the building for much longer than needed, as we all know, the lyrics cut when you leave the buildings
For some reason as soon as this song hit me for the first time I immediately had this beautiful sense of nostalgia. It reminded me of my first playthrough of Bastion and in the best way. It's such a great song.
this song is so beautiful. when I heard it in the game it blew me away. there's just something magical about it
swear on everything i love playing this game high , the soundtrack just hits when your in the hometown .. kudos and appreciation to the artist n game company for a fire soundtrack.
I recently picked up the game and I absolutely love it! This song is just amazing and to me, almost ethereal with it's tone and just so calming everytime I enter the cafe in Harbourtown. It's one of the best tracks ever in gaming.
Came Here form Kaela's Stream
same
This music has been stuck in my head since I started playing this game!
I can't wait for the multiplayer update to go live. I can imagine so many people hanging out in town, just vibing together.
Wasn't expecting to find one of the best songs ever made on a video game of places. Thank you for making this
Such a good track. Hang out in the first town just to listen to it
I recently played the Cassette Beasts demon on Steam. As soon as the lyrics kicked in, I knew I needed the full soundtrack.
I just came back here after playing through Lenna's Inception readying myself for Cassette Beasts and i gotta say, you do such an incredible job with both soundtracks!
Going through it atm. This song helps, so thanks.
this captivated me so much that i had to close the game and look this up. im only 23 minutes in and im in love with this game
Its Sad This Game Got Brushed Of As Another Monster Catcher Game. It Really Isn't, And I'm Happy I Tried This Game. The Music And Vocals Are Immaculate! Who Knew A Cassette Related Game Could Have Good Music? ❤
This Song Was Incredible, And The Fact You Hear This Song With Kayley, Who IMO Has Like, A REALLY Sad Backstory!! This Game Is A Hidden Gem, And Shelby Is An INCREDIBLE SINGER. 😄
Yeah for sure. Like yes it is a pokemon-esk game, but its really a more character & story-driven single player game than pokemon has ever been. I feel like pokemon excels when its pvp so this game has a different appeal.
First time hearing this music in Cassette Beasts since it just release recently.
I am inlove with this song so much I had to youtube it to listen all day.
As somebody stuck in relationship limbo rn, this song is literally perfect for how i feel, aaaaaa i love it so much and i literally just heard it just now in the game and its one of my favourite osts now
This song is somehow somber but also happy and hopeful, I will forever love this game
such a melancholic masterpiece
Coming here after listening on it from someone stream. Great song! Very chill
I just started playing this game and I'm so in love with this song.
I feel nostalgic, and this game just came out yesterday
Been feeling very lost recently, and I remembered this song. I hadn’t realized at the time how much this song and the game’s themes meant to me. Thank you for all that you’ve made here.
one of the reasons I play cassette beast, this song
I've come to the end of my go at Starfield for a while tonight. I ended up just walking around, trying to sort out my mixed feelings of the game, all while I had this song on repeat for a few hours.
Strangely fitting song.
This game has one of the best soundtracks ever, thank you for this.
This song is lowkey perfection
This game really took me off guard. I'm so glad I purchased this if only to be introduced to this song.
i started to play this game yesterday and this song is so beautiful... i wanted to listen to it longer, sadly in only plays in buildings :(
Thanks, for creating this
I got this game a few days ago, and I've been listening to the vocal tracks nonstop. The instrumentals are great, but in game when the vocals kick in it's such a rush.
This song in particular is one of my new favorite songs. The slow drums and relaxing beat give you this major sense of just drifting or floating while still being incredibly memorable. And the lyrics and the singer are top notch as well.
I can't say for certain since I first heard it in game, but this would probably have been a song I listened to over and over even if I'd heard it unattached to anything else.
Beautiful song
I just moved recently, and then i played the game on my Birthday after a small quarrel, and frankly, i felt accounted for and warm. Great way for a great song to be introduced to me.
i love this song so much but something about the whole your trapped in an island dimension with dangerous monster but somehow persevering and making a home for yourself makes this so melancholic. It makes me sad but also introspective.
Was interested in this game when it was first announced I think a year ago for PC but had to wait for the console release. Just like how others have pointed out, I did not expect there to be lyrics in the first song. The melody, lyrics and vocals of the singer all combine to create something truly beautiful and mesmerizing. Haven't felt this way from a video game song since Beneath the Mask from Persona 5.
I'm certain it's fine to be floating here for a while 💫 I'll be floating here for a long while now. Thanks for making me feel something I thought I'd lost along the way. Dealing with my feels while I listen to this beautiful piece of music brb!!! 🧑💻
This song stopped me in my tracks while playing it totally floored me. This is real fucking special
I was just singing this in the hallway at work and co-worker said that I have a nice singing voice and I stay on key and I'm a guy I just like singing when no one is around.
Just started cassette beasts yesterday. Absolute banger. I make sure to go to the cafe and chill every hour or so for a listen. Great work.
Amazing
Love this song
I actually cried like a baby hearing this. This made an impact on me ❤it's OK to be uncertain 😢❤
Me listening to Pat Stares At sell this game on the Castle Super Beast podcast like crazy: Okay, I'll give it a try.
Me walking into town: Man, this game has some great music.
Me inside a building with sudden lyrics layered on top of it: *IT'S SO BEAUTIFULLY MELANCHOLIC, IT MAKES ME WANNA CRY AND I'VE ONLY BEEN PLAYING FOR TEN MINUTES.*
Comfy.
I just bought the game and I love this song. Makes me wanna chill in the town foreverrrrrr
God this song is increadible, it makes you so nostalgic, for something you might have never even experienced.
good song❤
This song is pure magic! Can't wait to play the game on my Steam Deck 💝
I just tried this game last night. This is the kind of music I want to listen to. Not some panic music when I enter a certain house, one that belongs to someone else.
Please make more songs like this!!! The vocals are excellent and I love the slow steady almost jazzy style.
This song makes me nostalgic for something that never happened. Good job
I want this to be my morning alarm so bad ...
All of your music is bangers how.
But for real, these two songs are both amazing. I still have the Showdown theme from Lenna's Inception in my main music playlist. Keep on producing this fantastic music.
Thanks bud, I appreciate it 👍
I started the game before sleeping (those playing something 30 mins before sleeping with a steam deck) and damn does the OST caught me by surprised, such a beautiful track and it works perfectly for the game and it looks like there is more to come.
This song is great! The vocals deliver on the cozy feel it aims for, and the instrumental makes a perfect accompaniment while you're skipping around the main town in the game. Wherever we aaaare now ~
What a beautiful little song, the music in this game sounds kind of like metric. The girl who sings did a fantastic job
The game is awesome the soundtrack amazing I fell in luv with her voice I’m buying this game and ThanQ gamepass im convinced it’s a must own❤
I think that the soundtrack for this game is fantastic. Every track, amazing. But this one in particular shows the one thing that makes the whole thing work so well and give the game the life it does. It's analogue. Nothing in this track sounds digitally made, and thats the case for a lot of the soundtrack.
It really fits the vibe of game and the whole idea with the cassettes because the music itself feels like it's much older just due to the production. It's fantastic attention to detail, ans something that most people would probably never notice. But I love it.
Fantastic work.
It's sooo damn good.. coming back here almost everyday :))💜
