These are the songs I arranged in the order they appear in: 0:00 Silence 0:44 The Opened Way 2:40 Gate Watcher of the Castle Ruins 4:20 The End of the Battle 5:40 Swift Horse 7:30 Revived Power 8:26 Prologue ~To the Ancient Land~ There were a few songs I would have loved to use but ultimately they wouldn't have worked as well for this arrangement. If I ever did another SotC remix I would build the arrangement out of those particular songs but I'm happy with what I got to cover. Thanks for listening everyone!
I just have to say, finding this remix for this first time right now at work, and when this part began I was overwhelmed with emotion...was not expecting to be moved to tears so suddenly. Wow, I love that horse and I love all you gorgeous, perfect people
I remember when this game was released, I saw an add online for it, my wife bought it for me for Christmas in 05, She made me open it up and play it Christmas eve. I still love playing this! the music then was so amazing, and still is. Thank you for this!
Whoa nelly. Now that's a song that goes places. I've never played Shadow of the Colossus or listened to its music, but listening to this was an adventure in and of itself.
My God.... I've always loved your work Alex, but this...completely outstanding. I had literal goosebumps with the Opened Way and couldn't stopped smiling when hearing Swift Horse. That's probably my favorite work of yours. Thank you for composing this. Btw, I would love to hear a "Counterattack" or "demise of the ritual" version of yours. You did such an amazing job with the choirs!
how... how did I not know of this? the music that started it all for me.... Wow this is amazing Alex, I have never heard anything that matched the tone as well as you have, I feel the same feelings as listening to the originals and I am very thankful that you preserved that.
Like.. To be honest, i have no idea how many times i've been listening to this, over, and over.. And over again, its so.. Magnificent.. Oh, and when Revived Power hits at 7:30 ... Oh, it's bloody amazing.
This is too good Alex, a little too good...goes to show how passionate you are about your remixes! Keep up the amazing work for I have not felt goosebumps and a chill down my spine for a long whilr
I always find your pieces to be magnificent in their splendor with how they maintain the original tone of those which you remix, but still somehow grant to those pieces greater essence and emotion. Keep up the amazing work!
I love it. You managed to capture the sense of calm and beauty of the quieter pieces, as well as the overwhelming awe and frantic panic of the fighting tracks! All without losing your own style and becoming just a cloned version of them. When listening to this, you know this is that epic experience, but you also know that this is good ol' Alex narrating it through the music. I specially liked Revived Power and the prologue sneaking at the end, relieving the tension and leaving us with the sensation that this endind isn't the end. Or at least that's what it made me feel
Impressive medley - one of my all time favourite soundtracks. Really impressed how you captured the exact same timbre of the contrabass and brass at 2:40 from the original, great ear! Also congrats on getting this on OCRemix!
I love how you fused all the songs that have a musical connection toghether, I guess using the unused final battle one would be too much and I'm fine with it.
Your girlfriend dies, you need to kill innocent creatures to get her back, you become the host for the newly reborn devil and then you're reborn as the curse-bearing first horned child... Sometimes life sucks. But then Alex Roe uploads a thing, and everything is fantastic for a number of minutes.
You are one of the most brilliant composers alive. With all of the returning franchises trend in Hollywood movies, you'd think they'd want to find someone to make some old tracks far greater.
Why the hell Swift Horse wasnt in the remake?!? Its so epic Hey Alex this is briliant! BRAVO This is what the OST of the Remade SOTC should look like Since MediEvil is coming out, can you arranja a remade ost?
I don't know why I don't try to apply for more things, that's something I'm working on this year. Sometimes the thought of composing in the industry is daunting because you have to know the business and there's more to it than just writing music...I'm basically just self taught and work from my own computer. There are composers who learn all this stuff through proper music courses from colleges and universities, and who also study under people with industry experience. I feel like they will all probably have an edge over me. But it's no excuse to deter, I'm never one to be stop because something seemed difficult.
Alex Roe I totally understand that. Been a visual artist for years, a mentor of mine in the industry has been pushing me to go pro as a concept artist. I get worried the pressure will stomp the passion too. I wish you luck though, you're a talented individual and those are always in high demand.
Yeah I would also worry the pressure would ruin the passion, but I'd hope years of experience would be able to take it. If you think industry is where you wanna be, totally go for it! I sometimes don't know what my dream position would be but really I just want to be happy doing what I do and hopefully getting to be a part of projects I care about.
+Alex Roe I've been trying to get into the film industry as a director myself, and I know I would definitely try to get you for some of my films, since I think more movies need musical talent like yours as most movies nowadays barely try and have such lifeless music and you could really make a movie better just with your music alone! And I would help you out with making the task feel less daunting and foreign, since I think you wouldn't need to do much different since your style works so well already and you seem to be able to make music fairly quickly.
These are the songs I arranged in the order they appear in:
0:00 Silence
0:44 The Opened Way
2:40 Gate Watcher of the Castle Ruins
4:20 The End of the Battle
5:40 Swift Horse
7:30 Revived Power
8:26 Prologue ~To the Ancient Land~
There were a few songs I would have loved to use but ultimately they wouldn't have worked as well for this arrangement. If I ever did another SotC remix I would build the arrangement out of those particular songs but I'm happy with what I got to cover. Thanks for listening everyone!
Very well done, I'm glad I subbed to this channel. But is there anywhere, where these are seperated per track?
What about 'In the Land of Happiness' D:
Alex Roe your songs always melt my heart. Keep it up
Please, if you ever do another, use "Demise of the Ritual"
Please do moreeeee!! Need a despair filled farewell in the next arrange 😭😭😭
The way The End of the Battle leads into Swift Horse is just perfect. Amazing work on this piece
The Dark Souls of SotC remixes...
SotC= Shadow of the Colossus
SotC= Soul of the Cinders
fucking Rusty in here, of all places?
My jaw literally dropped when swift horse started playing, truly amazing!
Thanks!
Sounds like Elder Scrolls
this right here, is what all should give awe and inspire from, this is the colossus of music.
Takhi Washington woo woo woo. here we go woo woo
Your version of Swift Horse is absolutely incredible. So many flashbacks to riding Agro over the rolling green fields. I love that damn horse.
We all do
Indestructible, invincible, indispensable horse. If it weren't for Agro then Wander likely would have never gotten to the end of his voyage.
I just have to say, finding this remix for this first time right now at work, and when this part began I was overwhelmed with emotion...was not expecting to be moved to tears so suddenly. Wow, I love that horse and I love all you gorgeous, perfect people
Here because if Jacob Geller. I have no regrets discovering new composers thanks to other channels. This is excellent!
I remember when this game was released, I saw an add online for it, my wife bought it for me for Christmas in 05, She made me open it up and play it Christmas eve. I still love playing this! the music then was so amazing, and still is. Thank you for this!
1:54 Holy shit.
This is simply too beautiful for words, thank you Alex
6:39 gives me chills, love this part of the track, so uplifting.
Holy hell man, spectacular as always but fuck this is a cut above. Seriously well fucking done
Alex Roe you succeed my expectations yet again keep doing what you do and thank u
Whoa nelly. Now that's a song that goes places.
I've never played Shadow of the Colossus or listened to its music, but listening to this was an adventure in and of itself.
You should listen to the original soundtrack. It’s brilliant. Specifically The Opened Way and Despair Filled Fairwell
U should play it ur missing out on so much
Play it
You should play the ps2 version on real hardware and then the ps4 version
Alex Roe, this is godlike. Thank you so much for this man. I always wanted a remixed version of The Opened Way.
6:10 I actually started crying, I haven’t played the game but I’ve seen videos about it and that part really captures the majesty of SotC. Well done.
My God.... I've always loved your work Alex, but this...completely outstanding. I had literal goosebumps with the Opened Way and couldn't stopped smiling when hearing Swift Horse. That's probably my favorite work of yours. Thank you for composing this.
Btw, I would love to hear a "Counterattack" or "demise of the ritual" version of yours. You did such an amazing job with the choirs!
hericbss feel you with everything man! 😂 Same
Top 3 best SOTC remixes(in my opinion)
1-Snowfall on the forbidden lands
2-For her soul
3-Wanderer on the offensive
how... how did I not know of this? the music that started it all for me.... Wow this is amazing Alex, I have never heard anything that matched the tone as well as you have, I feel the same feelings as listening to the originals and I am very thankful that you preserved that.
Alex Roe does Shadow of the Colossus?...*salivates*
Like.. To be honest, i have no idea how many times i've been listening to this, over, and over.. And over again, its so.. Magnificent.. Oh, and when Revived Power hits at 7:30 ... Oh, it's bloody amazing.
The Opened Way's violin strings gave me the most awe inspired goosebumps I've had in ages
High quality of work ! I played this game when I was a child and your music makes me feel a lot of emotions. Thank you Alex, one suscriber in more :)
This is too good Alex, a little too good...goes to show how passionate you are about your remixes! Keep up the amazing work for I have not felt goosebumps and a chill down my spine for a long whilr

I specially liked Revived Power and the prologue sneaking at the end, relieving the tension and leaving us with the sensation that this endind isn't the end. Or at least that's what it made me feel
i swear, i could listen to your music for hours on end
Thanks
The End Of The Battle
and
Revived Power
HOLY SHIT AMAZING WORK!!!!!
That's a spetacular medley. Fantastic work!
Well done, Swift horse part was definitely my favourite.
I'll be playing this the next time I jump on the PS4. Excellent job!
This is amazing..... *wipes tear*
Always a pleasure to get a remix from you, hope your other projects go well :)
Thanks! They will when I stop distracting myself with remixes like this haha.
The arrangement of Swift Horse is Stunning!
Just like the soundtrack it's based on, this moves me to tears.
Everything you touch turns to gold!
Impressive medley - one of my all time favourite soundtracks. Really impressed how you captured the exact same timbre of the contrabass and brass at 2:40 from the original, great ear! Also congrats on getting this on OCRemix!
4:20 This part is surprisingly good!
This music made me hype for some reason!!!!! Amazing work keep it up, friend!!!!!
Hell yeah! This is amazing! So happy right now.
"I think we're really close to figuring this out, my friends. Just a bit more."
This has to be the best remix of all time
No one told me Alex Roe was doing a SotC remix. This is great !
literally was listening to the final bosses theme when i got this notification, never clicked away this fast before
This .. is .. ART ..
An Alex Roe remix to my favorite soundtrack in video game history? Yes please!
The End of Battle gave me fucking chills man, and I haven't even played this games before! Seriously, this is an amazing track!
This beautiful remix opened the way to my heart.
2:12 chiiils on the whole body
Goosebumps all the way through. Hot damn, this is awesome!
I found this after watching the video for the last big secret. Stunning work here. My respect. Thank you.
Just amazing, brings up old childhood memories.
Its beautiful i have listened to this for 4 hours now
Masterpiece as always specially the opened way...getting chill in my spine.. thanks a lot my friend.
I almost cried...it's simply Beautyful. You made an excellent job catching the melancholy an the epicity of the game. You made a Materpiece.
I love how you fused all the songs that have a musical connection toghether, I guess using the unused final battle one would be too much and I'm fine with it.
Man this is really awesome!
know you from the souls remix, now SOTC, god dam :D
And I thought that SotC ost could not get any better. You have proved me wrong
beautiful.. like always.
I can only say, MAJESTIC, I LOVE THIS MIX
Great job, thank you !
Please more of This!!!!!!!!
A masterpiece story...thanks Ueda-San!
That was bloody beautiful!
Masperpiece game...masterpiece songs
Phenomenal work!
It's stupid how good your covers are.
I thank you for bringing back my childhood
You are very talented
Incredible soundtrack. Incredible remix.
Incredible
Solitude of SoTC meets the tempest that is this bold orchestral arrangement.
i would literally die if you made something with "The Demise of the Ritual", that is hands down one of the best tracks in the game
Amazing remix!
What can I, as a music eternal beginner, say other than "OOOOOOH, MAJESTIC"
Micolash? Is that you?
Missing a farewell filled despair remix, but this job is outstanding, my gosh
Your girlfriend dies, you need to kill innocent creatures to get her back, you become the host for the newly reborn devil and then you're reborn as the curse-bearing first horned child... Sometimes life sucks.
But then Alex Roe uploads a thing, and everything is fantastic for a number of minutes.
Im from Russia and your works is just amazing. It is not enough subs for you, i dont understand.
Amazing
I may be small...but I will die a colossus.
You are one of the most brilliant composers alive. With all of the returning franchises trend in Hollywood movies, you'd think they'd want to find someone to make some old tracks far greater.
I love this. What solo string libraries do you use? They sound beautiful.
my
b o i
Lovely Arrangement. Subbed.
very cool!
I've never played Shadow of the Colossus. But damn, these songs are... fantastic. They tell a story that I've never experienced but I feel it. Bravo.
6:25 😍
Oh yeah, I N E E D this on Spotify.
Good job
Best remix
Beautiful!!!! @alex roe
Why the hell Swift Horse wasnt in the remake?!? Its so epic
Hey Alex this is briliant! BRAVO
This is what the OST of the Remade SOTC should look like
Since MediEvil is coming out, can you arranja a remade ost?
i first heard this on soundcloud thinking it was the original soundtrack
why don't you work at SIE as a composer?
