This game is really special, for sure, oh and I cried watching your video btw hahahah... I've even watched it again these days and it's crazy how current it is, with all the pandemic and everything going on. Your approach on the game was definetly something else, thanks a lot for that video.
Probably because you will never play this game for the first time ever again. While the same experience will never return, the feeling is not entirely unpleasant.
3:43 gets me every time. the outer wilds soundtrack truly is about connecting through music no matter the distance, and i literally can't believe it's happening in real life. such a sick cover.
Replying to an old post but thank you so much for your amazing work on this game. The soundtrack was so integral to the whole experience, and the way the music shapes your understanding of the game which then further shapes your understanding of the music over and over again is astounding
Hey, Andrew. I love outer wilds, it is my favorite game, and it is just perfection. I played this game since day one and the ending just made me cry. The music though, it's brilliant. My favorite song is outer wilds and I just listen to the songs on Spotify all day while doing something else. Outer wilds is and will continue to be a big part of my life. I wish I forgot this game just to play it again. Thank you and Annapurna Interactive for making a brilliant game. See you in 22 minutes!
Hi everyone, it's been a month since I released this video and I just wanted to thank everyone who took the time to watch it. I'm honestly so blown away at the response, people have said so many nice things! I love that at some point Andrew Prahlow must have thought 'Space Game Music? I'll grab my banjo!' haha It's such a crucial part of what makes Outer Wilds so big and so small at the same time, y'know? It's why I kept thinking about the soundtrack months after completing the game! Anyways, thanks again, and have a great day!
Andrew Prahlow said he wanted the soundtrack to have a sort of wholesome campfire tune feel to it, and it really shows in the soundtrack. Your cover is one of my favorite covers of his works because of how seemlessly you can incorperate all the different melodies and instruments so well. It's absolutely amazing. Great job!
Polygon just released a really cool video on that exact subject of banjos in space games! ruclips.net/video/PVjPCb1ost0/видео.html Check it out! Great job btw, very very nice to listen to.
For a video with 162 views, from a channel with 22 subscribers, I was honestly expecting a passionate yet amateurish tribute to a cult classic, but this... This is the kind of quality I would expect from the absolute superstars of the platform. You are far far too talented to go unheard for long. I'm really happy the youtube algorithm decided to drop this hidden gem on me. Thanks for making this, and for helping me reminisce about one of the most impactful games I've ever played.
My grandma was a poet, her last words were “Long from now, you will look at the stars and think for me for the last time, and we’ll both be content” Thanks for this beautiful tribute, and for helping my grandma see the stars for the last time
Those are such beautiful words I broke out in tears immediately thinking about how much they mean, and must mean to you. Thank you for sharing. She sounds like a spectacular woman.
I just love the dynamic progression in this, starts so quiet and ends so triumphantly. Gives me inspiration for how to continue my accordion concerto based on the game... We need more musicians like us making covers of Outer Wilds!
"All that remains is to collapse the innumerable possibilities before us." I get emotional everytime I hear this tune - had to share this gem with my father. Thank you for the beautiful cover, I'm glad Andrew got to enjoy it, too!
The second half is almost reminiscent of Explosions in the Sky, with the very slow build up to a roaring climax of all the instruments. Absolutely speechless.
Very late to your comment, but I figured I’d leave this here anyways! He may have done it on accident, but Andrew (the composer for outer wilds) made the end credits song with this in mind. The roaring sound near the middle signifies the end of the universe, and if you listen to the original again, all the travelers instruments get replaced with modern string instruments. So they’re the same tune, but different. Just like how the game ends, but life goes on. Its truly beautiful the passion put into the soundtrack and this remake of the medley 👏🏻
Not going to lie here, it would fit, since they are a backing tracks, we were the one to start the universe again, they were just here for us to be a company alongside the 22 minute journey
It's actually wild how good not just the Traveler's theme is (I could write a fucking book on why Outer Wilds is one of the best games ever made,) but how masterfully you covered it. The Traveler's theme works because everyone's individual instrument adds something to the song it didn't have before. While they all work on their own, combining them makes something new. The way you covered each individual instrument (especially Solanum's. Holy shit,) was so, so good. Absolutely nailed it, my man. Instant sub.
I just came back to this video accidentally, having forgot about it and enjoyed this beautiful composure again. Imagine my surprise when I open this and see my^ reply here from 2 years ago 😂
just got every achievement in the game... its a shame i have no goal strive for in that universe anymore. But i will always remember outer wilds as one of my favorite games of all time, and this is an excellent tribute to it
@@ChrisVattic took me a little less than a hour to finally get the orbit down pat, then actually entering the station after entering the same orbit as it took me another hour because thats actually the hard part lol
This song will always remind me of lockdown and the wonderful little solar system I spent that first fearful month exploring until I rediscovered my ability to hope for the future
I just downloaded Outer Wilds a couple of weeks ago, and HOLY COW this is gotta be the most wholesome community I’ve ever seen! I look at Reddit posts of people asking for help on a particular puzzle, and I see the most kind-hearted people responding while still keeping it spoiler free. I haven’t completed the game yet, and from an outsiders view the community treats the ending as almost a sacred experience that can only be enjoyed once. So they try their best to ensure that no matter what, people get the best possible experience with the ending. This is what I play games for. This right here. People coming together to enjoy a common interest, and for long-term players who simply love sharing their love of the game with newcomers. Y’all are the best, and I can’t wait to experience the ending so I can share the same love to new players that you people have shared with me Edit: Just beat it. Thank you all for such an organic and incredible ending. What a way to end a game.
Everything just fit perfectly, but that transition at 2:21 where you can hear the hearthian blowing on the burning marshmallow like he blowed on the instrument to turn them off to let us hear just the solanum's theme... That. Was. Perfect. It's clearly the little details that make this medley perfect. That's some awesome job
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve listened to this on repeat, somehow you’ve returned the feeling of internal joy I always got by playing this game. Makes me wish I could forget it all and discover it again, but until I can do that, this song does a good job giving me that feeling. Thank you :)
hoferlg I mean, don’t have a quitar and probably not going to play the songs too much anyways, it’s just a thing that I said because who would not want to be able to play their favourite OST?
This is beautiful man, could close my eyes, feel the thrust of the ship lift me up into space, listen to the space around me turn quiet as I begin to float out of orbit, drifting towards an unknown world, knowing only the music of lost signals to guide me
The sheer joy on your face as you play says it all, you GET music. The power of a collection of a series of simple sounds can change everything. The soundtrack to Outer Wilds is unique, the music itself is beautiful, and in the context of the game it becomes truly magical. Bravo man, play on, and never lose that simple, pure happiness you display when making music!
Thankyou for including Solanums part. She was the best character in my opinion. Also, some ghost matter accidentally hit the dislike button 40 times. new edit: back here in 2023, I'm an aspiring game developer (sort of, I'm in college) and I'm using Outer Wilds as a massive inspiration for my own projects. I stumbled upon this yesterday, was going to comment and realised I already had an entire two years ago. Amazing how time passes, isn't it? Anyway, among several other things, I was thinking about what to add to this comment... and here we are now. I'm glad to have come across this again. Truly wonderful. P.S: Still freaking love Solanum and her part of the theme
@@charliemackovas it'll likely be a long while before I make and release a game, let alone a game with a charm like Outer Wilds. Regardless, I'll let you know when I manage to do so
@Goldmoon YT As expected. Quality takes time!! And I'll hold you to that. It's been less than 24 hrs since I beat Outer Wilds, and I can't get the damn thing out of my head. It literally changed my life and my outlook on it in a beautiful way.
even after all this time, I still think the most telling thing is how much fun they're having playing through the whole thing. That's what music is about, in my opinion -- having fun and getting into what you're making, no matter what it is. Brilliant video.
kinda made me thinkin, the music here and in game is just like expirience the game gives you, you start off simple, just one thought, to go out there and explore, but as time goes and you learn new things, the story and music starts getting more complex and makes it an extraordinary, one of a time thing you get to have and live through.
And thats what makes Outer Wilds such an amazing experience. Its a gorgeous masterpiece that gets you thinking, and plays with your curiosity to get you to learn more about the world of the game. Truly a masterpiece
One year later and you video has not been forgotten. Wonderful music being wonderfully played. Thank you for making me feel these emotions again. Outer Wilds is truly something special
I played Outer Wilds when it officially launched in 2019, and again in 2021, in preparation for the DLC, which I also played. This game and the community around it truly is something special. A group of people, driven by curiosity, for this small world, and everything beyond. Creating: be it stories, music, pictures; a vast array of wonder and awe, a veritable celebration of what this game means to so many, in its themes and its story. We explore, ever-onward, because there will always be more to explore here, letting our imaginations bring us to new places even long after this charming little game has told us its story, and then we bring it to others, nudging them in the right direction, encouraging to pursue knowledge and broaden horizons, and in turn, they bring their own experience to this community. I truly cannot say I've been a part of anything like it before, and it is something amazing. Thank you, for making such an awesome song
In 3:03 to 3:45 my tears drop off, idk why. What an amazing game, an it's music so simple and yet so beatiful. Edit: Oh, BTW amazing medley man. You have a gift for instruments.
As much as I get invested in games and other media they rarely get a strong emotional response from me, and almost never more than once for those that do. It's been probably 2 years since I finished this game and I still get goosebumps listening to the music, good goosebumps. Excellent cover.
Amazing cover. Thank you very much. Incidentally... I thought you'd like to know (in case you didn't already) that I found this cover because Andrew Prahlow shared it on twitter.
Your focus and passion for this piece is perfectly conveyed by your skillful expression. It is a joyous occasion when I manage to find covers of this quality because every time I do it reaffirms my belief that the greatest musicians in the world are more often than not the ones that play for the joy of the music, sending out their sounds on street corners, dive bars, and all the nooks and crannies of the planet. P.S. Your guitar face near the end is perfection itself
The biggest lie of this game is that is impossible to play this shit with some dudes around the fire, but somehow we all dream that this moment will come.
i was listening to this, contemplating how much it sounds like every single person in the universe gathered together to sing one last song at the end of time right before my final shift at work i get to my desk to see that all my coworkers signed a heartfelt goodbye card for me be me: fucking crying
Incredible rendition. Loved every second of it. This popped up in my recommended on a very emotional night for me, and I opened it thinking it was a meme, but was very glad to discover I was completely wrong. The emotions that power through the screen are so strong. It's exactly what I needed. Thank you so much.
This game's ending made me sad that it's over but happy it made me feel sad, there are only so many games with that ability, the music being such a big part in my opinion.
This is so beautifully done, it's unbelievable! Makes me wish I could just reverse the loop irl and play this great game for the first time once again. Great work!!

Listened to this before launching the DLC, I feel like this is one of the best hommages this game has, thank you
This is definitely outer wilds,it has that same fluidity and emotional depth, you did an amazing job
This made me feel human again, such a beautiful performance, thanks for sharing this with the world, you keep doing you dude! ^-^
What had you been feeling like before? An arachnid? A crustacean? Maybe a seal?
@@andraw47 Ohhh. I’m sorry. English is not my first language and sometimes I do not understand sayings like such😃
I love that Nomai Staff you pulled out at 2:21!
Hey every so often I come back to this video because it is so fucking awesome. Makes me happy.
This was so beautiful I’ve been listening since whole day man thank you
Thankyou for including Solanums part. She was the best character in my opinion. Also, some ghost matter accidentally hit the dislike button 40 times.
new edit: back here in 2023, I'm an aspiring game developer (sort of, I'm in college) and I'm using Outer Wilds as a massive inspiration for my own projects. I stumbled upon this yesterday, was going to comment and realised I already had an entire two years ago. Amazing how time passes, isn't it? Anyway, among several other things, I was thinking about what to add to this comment... and here we are now. I'm glad to have come across this again. Truly wonderful.
P.S: Still freaking love Solanum and her part of the theme
If you've made anything, please let me know. To experience anything like this game again would make me happy.
@@charliemackovas it'll likely be a long while before I make and release a game, let alone a game with a charm like Outer Wilds.
Regardless, I'll let you know when I manage to do so
@Goldmoon YT As expected. Quality takes time!! And I'll hold you to that. It's been less than 24 hrs since I beat Outer Wilds, and I can't get the damn thing out of my head. It literally changed my life and my outlook on it in a beautiful way.
@Charlie Mac Thank you. Also, I'm glad to hear Outer Wilds has changed you much like how it changed me and so many others.
@@goldmoonytplease let me know too. I’d love to know, or if I can keep up with the projects you’re making anywhere
This vid is gonna reach 1 mil views soon, and you deserved it boy. Because of the passion you put in it, enjoy it already friend.
you're now contractually obligated to make another
-What instrument can you play?
-Yes
even after all this time, I still think the most telling thing is how much fun they're having playing through the whole thing. That's what music is about, in my opinion -- having fun and getting into what you're making, no matter what it is. Brilliant video.
This feels like a refreshing breeze after the rain
kinda made me thinkin, the music here and in game is just like expirience the game gives you, you start off simple, just one thought, to go out there and explore, but as time goes and you learn new things, the story and music starts getting more complex and makes it an extraordinary, one of a time thing you get to have and live through.
And thats what makes Outer Wilds such an amazing experience. Its a gorgeous masterpiece that gets you thinking, and plays with your curiosity to get you to learn more about the world of the game. Truly a masterpiece
It's a pretty all right experience
crying. just crying
One year later and you video has not been forgotten. Wonderful music being wonderfully played. Thank you for making me feel these emotions again. Outer Wilds is truly something special
Gave me chills. Beautifully done!
When the piano kicks in you're unabled to contain any tears
I played Outer Wilds when it officially launched in 2019, and again in 2021, in preparation for the DLC, which I also played.
This game and the community around it truly is something special. A group of people, driven by curiosity, for this small world, and everything beyond. Creating: be it stories, music, pictures; a vast array of wonder and awe, a veritable celebration of what this game means to so many, in its themes and its story. We explore, ever-onward, because there will always be more to explore here, letting our imaginations bring us to new places even long after this charming little game has told us its story, and then we bring it to others, nudging them in the right direction, encouraging to pursue knowledge and broaden horizons, and in turn, they bring their own experience to this community. I truly cannot say I've been a part of anything like it before, and it is something amazing. Thank you, for making such an awesome song
I just love your smile throughout this performance man. You really captured the magic.
“It’s different than I’d envisioned. Whatever happens next, I do not think it is to be feared”
In 3:03 to 3:45 my tears drop off, idk why. What an amazing game, an it's music so simple and yet so beatiful.
Edit: Oh, BTW amazing medley man. You have a gift for instruments.
As much as I get invested in games and other media they rarely get a strong emotional response from me, and almost never more than once for those that do. It's been probably 2 years since I finished this game and I still get goosebumps listening to the music, good goosebumps. Excellent cover.
Amazing cover. Thank you very much.
Incidentally... I thought you'd like to know (in case you didn't already) that I found this cover because Andrew Prahlow shared it on twitter.
I've been watching this video more or less once a week ever since I found it. Thank you for making this.
"would fly into the sun again"
you know completely intentionally
like it was the first time.
yeah...
I still don't understand why it Tokyo drifted me into the sun sometimes 😂😭
I love coming back to this video after beating the game and understanding the ending. Good Job!
Your focus and passion for this piece is perfectly conveyed by your skillful expression. It is a joyous occasion when I manage to find covers of this quality because every time I do it reaffirms my belief that the greatest musicians in the world are more often than not the ones that play for the joy of the music, sending out their sounds on street corners, dive bars, and all the nooks and crannies of the planet.
P.S. Your guitar face near the end is perfection itself
This is what it looks like when they open a space academy with a mandatory band class.
Aha
Solanum's part gets me everytime....dude i wish i had your knowledge with all these instruments...Well done !
It hasn't even been that long since I finished this game and I still miss playing it for the first time. Thank you for the great cover!
This is absolutely beautiful thank you for making this. Outer wilds will forever hold a special place in my heart 🙏🏼💫
Legendary arrangement, man. You truly capture the emotional breadth of this experience. Thank you for putting this together.
The biggest lie of this game is that is impossible to play this shit with some dudes around the fire, but somehow we all dream that this moment will come.
i was listening to this, contemplating how much it sounds like every single person in the universe gathered together to sing one last song at the end of time
right before my final shift at work
i get to my desk to see that all my coworkers signed a heartfelt goodbye card for me
be me:
fucking crying
Definitely the best outer wilds medley ive heard :D
Thank u for this
I've been returning to this video often over the past several months because I love it so much.
Dude I love this song so much and I love how you converted it to this and it's so amazing
This is my favorite video on youtube, and has been since you first posted it. Amazing.
One hour left until Echoes of the Eye comes out, I'm so excited!
Goddamn what is it about this fucking song that just brings me to tears.
Incredible rendition. Loved every second of it.
This popped up in my recommended on a very emotional night for me, and I opened it thinking it was a meme, but was very glad to discover I was completely wrong.
The emotions that power through the screen are so strong. It's exactly what I needed. Thank you so much.
Outer Wilds but there's a lot more travelers and they each have their own unique instrument.
4:09 me when I’m smiling for a picture but the sun is in my eyes
this song makes me unreasonably happy
This game's ending made me sad that it's over but happy it made me feel sad, there are only so many games with that ability, the music being such a big part in my opinion.
this guy came, made the best music ever, and left...
wow...
holy shit everyone please share this it needs more views
this is incredibly good, you are so talented
3:43 now i'm imagining the prisoner whipping out an electric guitar instead of a theramin lol
This is so beautifully done, it's unbelievable! Makes me wish I could just reverse the loop irl and play this great game for the first time once again. Great work!!
This cover is out of this world for real
