    Falcom jdk band is just the developer's internal band they use to perform their music rather than a band they hired. Also, To Make the End of Battle is actually the opening track for Ys II, and there's another version of it that plays during said opening that's shorter and less of a fully featured song, but it also goes so incredibly hard. It's even faster and more aggressive and doesn't have any violin, instead opting for just guitar and synths.
    Also a fun sidenote is that all the Ys games with the exception of Origin, which is a prequel, is framed as stories from the diary of the main character, Adol Christin, chronicling his various adventures across his life. Only Ys I, II and Origin actually have anything to do with the titular Ys at all.

    Ahhh...To Make the End of Battle~ What an iconic track of the good old JDK!

    As others have mentioned, "jdk BAND" is not an external commercial band but they're something like a team of performers associated with Falcom. They are musicians that also do their own things but play for Falcom in concerts, arrange albums and some OSTs. "Falcom Sound Team jdk" are the composers sitting in the Falcom office. Sound Team jdk and jdk BAND have always been separate, but this was from an era where they worked more closely together to incorporate the band's live performance capabilities into the game's OST. The arrangement and recording/mixing quality in these soundtracks are insane, it is a treasure trove. To Make the End of Battle is the opening theme of Ys II and it's one of the most iconic Falcom tracks, so they went all out for it in this remake of Ys I & II.

    Ys Chronicles is a released set of the first two games that was on the PSP. You may also see Chronicles + which is the most current version of the pair of games on Steam and whatnot. The earlier games in the series have had a lot of releases, re-releases, ports, remasters... But yes, two games packaged together.
    I don't really remember that first song, but I recognized the second immediately.
    And yeah, as someone else already mentioned, Falcom JDK Band is just Falcom's internal music crew, so you'll have heard them a lot by now, though of course people have come and gone.
    I was doing a guess the song quiz recently and had something from Ys pop up. I couldn't quite place it but I knew it was Falcom just from the guitar and violin mix lol.

      The first song is played while you're climbing the tower in the Solomon Shrine at the end of Ys 2. Its the tower where you face Dulles, right before you go to the central core area, where you fight Darm

    Games back then relied on the instruction manual to set the tone for the world building, but Ys 2 had "To Make the End of Battle" and it was mind blowing.

  • @hongchina1873
    @hongchina1873 4 месяца назад +9

    Ys1 and Ys2 are a curious case. When Falcom was making the first Ys game, it was a much bigger undertaking than expected. They were taking longer than they thought they'd need to and needed to release *a* game. So they released "Ys 1" and continued working on the rest of the game. Once they finished it, they released it as Ys 2. Ever since that, their occasional remakes/updates/upgrades have been released together as a single product, starting the year after Ys2's release with Ys Book 1&2 by HudsonSoft for their Turbografx-CD console

      @@TheKnizzineThe games weren't made for the NES. Falcom primarily developed for the PC-88, the Nintendo versions/ports were usually made by other companies after the original game's release.

  • @chroipahtz
    @chroipahtz 5 месяцев назад +6

    Ys I is VERY old (1987). Though Ys I & II Chronicles came out much later (2011), and these are remade songs for that. Falcom has generally been doing the power metal thing for a long time though.

    Gurumin has a track called To Make The End of Digging for the super hard secret boss. Completely different song and pretty damn short, but it does kick quite a bit of ass. Maybe not as much as this one, but it's a song I never skip.

    Pretty sure I'm the one who's name you couldn't say, which is understandable lol you even asked me at the time I made the request how you should credit me and I basically said you didn't have to so no worries there. I specifically requested To Make The End of Battle because the moment Ys popped up in your channel, I knew that song was gonna blow your mind lol

  • @ErpyAGDI
    @ErpyAGDI 2 месяца назад

    The "race to the top of the bell tower"-context of the first song involved a race to the top of a tower to stop a human sacrifice from being carried out, hence the threatening tone.

    Nowadays, I always end up associating To Make the End of Battle with this one really wild video from back during Ys’ early releases. It’s pure ‘80s power metal music video’ and it’s super cheesy and great. I’ll see if I can dig it up for anyone curious.

    I played Ys I & II Chronicles as well as Ys Origin. They are extremely fun games (sometimes infuriating) but the MUSIC is really something special. I've been wanting to request something from these but I could never make a decision on which song. One of my all time favorite soundtracks EVER.

    • @thenonexistinghero
      @thenonexistinghero 4 месяца назад +2

      My favourite track from Origin is actually one that couldn't be less like a traditional Ys track. It's Water Prison. I love the soundtrack, especially Silent Desert. But Water Prison just has a special palce for me.

    Another one who joins us in the glory that is Ys. Now give A Great Ordeal from Ys IV a listen and see if you've heard it anywhere else :D. The Ys ost are some of the best and it sucks that not many have heard it.

  • @Kraftium
    @Kraftium 4 месяца назад

    There is another falcom game called "Gurumin: A Monstrous Adventure" that has an homage track to Ys that is titled "To Make The End Of Digging" that it uses for its optional super boss theme that I definately recommend
    Theres both an original version as well as the "Falcom vs JDK Band Summer 2010" rearrange

  • @kobarsos82
    @kobarsos82 4 месяца назад +1

    Ah the original first two Ys games. So amazing. I played them quite late too and not when they were released, and yet I was still impressed beyond words. Definitely some of the best jrpgs that exist and in my opinion, possibly the most wholesome in the franchise for many reasons and what ignited the series to make so many sequels afterwards. And they did have decent stories and insanely good atmosphere too. The soundtracks were indeed huge part of why I loved these games, through the roof quality. Music was so memorable and bad-a*s, full of bangers from start to finish. The bosses were kinda tough too, stressful even! Definitely worth a look for those oldschool jrpg fans out there!
    Thanks for the memories ! AND RIP Randy Rhoads the true legend!

  • @76MaGus76
    @76MaGus76 4 месяца назад +2

  • @Skasaha_
    @Skasaha_ 4 месяца назад +1

    You usually won't see composer credits for Falcom games, but fans have pieced together most of it from internal code/interviews etc.
    This is a remake of one of the earliest bangers from the legendary Yuzo Koshiro. He left Falcom not too long after this and has done music for tons of different games in tons of different styles since, but his early Ys tracks are still some of my favourites.

  • @cecilleonhart8553
    @cecilleonhart8553 4 месяца назад

    really been looking forward to your reaction to To make the end of battle , it's seriously one of my favorite themes in the entirety of the YS franchise and probably my favorite . Every time I listen to this song , I feel as though I'm driven by some form of strange and unkown force prompting me to cleave the path towards triumph no matter how stacked the odds I'd be standing against.

  • @germin9784
    @germin9784 4 месяца назад +1

    Ys 1 and 2 are very hardcore games. They're quite tough, it's not always clear on where to go and the music goes hard. Definitely had to look up where to go a few times. The last dungeon of 1 is especially good, it's a giant tower which serves as a big maze.

  • @LBCAndrew
    @LBCAndrew 3 месяца назад

    The guitars sound like early 90's power metal because these songs were first written around 1990. Ys Book I&II was released on Turbografx CD, the first console to have full redbook soundtracks. Going from Nintendo to music like this was insane.

  • @victorteixeira1433
    @victorteixeira1433 4 месяца назад +1

    Finally, you're getting to the real bangers from Ys! To Make The End of Battle is the opening of Ys II and was composed in the late 80s by Yuzo Koshiro, the same man that made the legendary Streets of Rage soundtrack. The opening itself is very iconic for the series and the most notable arrangements to this song are the PC-Engine CD version from 1989 and the one you heard that is from the remake Ys I & II chronicles.

    • @RGuilliman
      @RGuilliman 4 месяца назад +3

      Maybe the most insane thing about Yuzo Koshiro is that he was hired by Falcom in 1986 when he was just 18 years old. He then immediately started composing some of the most influential Japanese video game music of all time, working on Ys 1 and 2, Xanadu, Sorcerian and Dragon Slayer IV. The man was already a legend at 20.

    Ys is awesome. The original chiptune composers, Ryo Yonemitsu's arrangements, and J.D.K. Band performances are pretty sick at times. Sometimes annoying, but always interesting, and rocking in an insane way.

    “To make the end of battle” is the track for one of the greatest openings in game history, which inspired the director of “Your Name” into animation making..
    This opening is the opening for Ys2, is one of the biggest reveal in game history…. The whole time you are like what the hell!? Then oh my god!
    The opening connects Ys I with Ys 2, making the two games a continuous quest, and tells you the mythology of what Ys really is, and what had happened to it.. Super exhilarating
    So the format was used by symphony of the night, the opening start at the end DraculaX, connecting the two into a sequel, but much more so in Ys1+2

      The hype when you just completed Ys I and see the Ys II opening, you immediately understand what lost city of "Ys" truly is.

    @xnamkcor 4 месяца назад +1

    Kind of hard to think of a game older than a game series that started in the same era as the PC88, Sharp 68K, and the MSX.
    So the question becomes, did they always intend it to be guitars and Violins, or was that added later? My guess is the former.
    But if you're looking for a game older than Ys I&II Chronicles that has electric guitar and violin in the soundtrack, Lufia II comes to mind. Maybe even Lufia I, but Lufia II has better quality tracks and samples.

      When jesse makes a comparison he never means it in a bad way.
      "90's like" "garage sounding" "aggressive" and a million other expressions he uses are used from a professional point of view to describe the mix of the audio of the song.
