I thought the jumpscare was totally pointless, just having the call cut sound would be scary enough imo (not saying I got scared of the jumpscare, it didn't really do anything for me, on the opposite it ruined a little the experience personally)
The first time you hear this is perfect, it totally adds to the despair Keiichi feels realizing rika and satoko is definitely dead, and the character in the other side of the phone is even playing with you as you suffer about their deaths
This bgm is so creepy, addicting yet catchy I am genuinely impressed AND FOR THE PHONE SCENE I LEGIT COULDNT SLEEP AT NIGHT BECAUSE I GOT A CALL WHILE I WAS PLAYING THIS BGM AND I GOT A FUCKING HEART ATTACK
It was during the phonecall scene that I realized that clipping is WHERE IT SHOULD BE. Although RUclips makes it seem a bit worse than it is, clipping really does happen in the VN... but the harshness of clipping feels perfectly fitting for Higurashi...
xD You're right, Fascism is one of the greatest themes in the VN ( my favorite with Demonic institute ), and the clipping fits quite good with it. It sure is better than the moderated version ... But for other "emotional" songs, like Dawn, Sunrise or Gear, clipping is really disturbing ... Personnally I prefer the moderate versions of these songs. Oh well. Anyway, Higurashi kicks ass. I red the four first books, the other are being translated. Can't wait for them ! ^^
- "Rena's Meteors" : A game in which Rena is giving punches, to the left or the right : you must click right or left button before it hits you. - "Flash Keiichi" : A picture of Angel Mort Rena has been cut into much pieces, which are apparing randomly on the screen then disappear. The goal is to click on three of each pieces to complete the picture, while not clicking on Satoko's traps. - "Big Boobs" : A kind of Brick breaker game in which. ( hard to explain )
Yeah. Our translator, Pierre Bancov, specified in an interview that he had to take contact with all the people who was involved in the making of the VN : for the backgrounds, the music, the sounds ... And yeah, French version contains mini games. Don't worry, you're not missing anything fantastic. ;) Mini games are just for fun. Although the musics are quite entertaining ...
what even were the minigames? i've always been curious because even to this day, with the new 2015-2020 translations of higurashi, they're still not in
@193Raiden @seieireppa As the tags say, it comes from Watanagashi. It played when Keiichi questioned Shion on the phone about when she met Kimiyoshi, and when Keiichi was about to be tortured.
@193Raiden It plays in Tatarigoroshi, I think, when Keiichi goes to Dr. Irie to confess that he "killed" Satoko's uncle, then Irie leaves the room and tells everyone how Keiichi's crazy and needs to be institutionalized.
@@GenericLoser12 yeah i know Still its pretty easy to tell from their clothes and hairstyle But Pretty complicated when you realize shion is the older one but gave the spot to mion
Thank you so much for uploading this. I've been looking for this for a while and happened upon this video by pure luck. Now I know the title of this song and can listen to it whenever I want.
@ozoz93 It also comes from Tatarigoroshi. I remember the first time I heard it as being when Keiichi confesses his murder to Irie. I still have a save file at that point so I could hear it over and over again (of course, this was BEFORE I found it on youtube).
And then : - "the errant-girl" : Rika dressed in cat is walking around Hinamizawa, and must escape to Rena, Oishi, Tomitake and Irie by clicking in rythme with the mouse. That's all. ^^
Ptain, Lukeskywalker62, j'aurais jamais pensé te trouver ici :o En plus j'ai lâché un com sur ta dernière vidéo y'a très peu de temps ou j'explique rapidement que tu es toujours actif sur RUclips car on voit quelles vidéos tu likes Personne ne s'attend à ce que tu reprennes les poops mais ça serait bien si tu pouvais faire une petite vidéo ou tu nous dis ou t'en est dans la vie ^^
@Lukeskywalker62 the French translators got in touch with the music authors to give them the original "source" tracks for the music and made them a bit more "moderated" as you say it. It makes them sound more professional... and on some songs, it's clearly a good change... but most of the clipping is where it SHOULD be. "Clipping audio" or just "clipping" refers to that harsh somewhat distorted sound it makes when the audio is too loud and here it fits. AWESOMELY.
@Lukeskywalker62 well, i'm not sure about the french, but I know in the english translated version thats on itunes {translated by mangagamer} they had to replace most of the tracks and get rid of the mini games and sound room and stuff. This was due to legal issues, and apparently the french version actually has more than the english version {according to what i've read.} but they apparently needed to jump through some major hoops to get it.
Wait, they replaced THIS?! Fuck. Thank god/Hanyuu I'm reading this with the music patch. This is one of the best/most fitting tracks in all of Watanagashi... other than "Rainy Days". This track is important.
@LanaGame I thought a few of them were composed... but it's quite possible that he just picked a song and decided to make it louder... he is not good at sound engineering then. :) Though I think you're right, Kai does not have such issues, I think... so I must have been misinformed. :)
What do you mean ? There's a thing I cannot understand ... I'm french, and I'm reading the French version of the VN ( actually well-translated ). However, the musics aren't the ones I can find on RUclips. Of course they have the same notes, but the saturation isn't here and it's more ... well, "moderated". Are there differents versions of the same musics in the Visual Novels ?
@LanaGame because Ryukishi sometimes took the "test" versions sent to him by the musicians. I can imagine a musician checking out the results and being like "Oh my god, WHY THE FUCK DID HE USE *THAT* VERSION*. Sometimes the choice fits perfectly and the results sounds right in the scene itself. (like this song) Sometimes, however, especially with some of the softer songs, the choice is completely unexplainable. He couldn't have been THAT pressed for time.
@ozoz93 Really? Because I played through all 8 arcs, and I have no memory of that song playing in Watanagashi. I'm probably just remembering wrong, though.
SPOILER FOR HIGURASHI SOTSU I know they probably can't use it, but damn imagine if once Mion realized she killed Shion in Wataakashi, this song played.
why does 07expansion picks a rather low quality music? This music is actually good but the quality is just bad :/ My ear is kind of hurt listening to this.
That's a very... interesting choice of name for a background song in a visual novel.
indeed it is!
Narratively it’s for a pretty good reason imo

Rin spotted.
The first time you hear this is perfect, it totally adds to the despair Keiichi feels realizing rika and satoko is definitely dead, and the character in the other side of the phone is even playing with you as you suffer about their deaths
Sounds like two pirate captains having a battle out on the high seas, during a stormy night, of course.
hearing the first few seconds of this track for the first time nearly scared me. I wasn't expecting that
No wonder, it's loud as hell.
It is all comming back to me now...
The scene of that screenshot nailed it... literally
This bgm is so creepy, addicting yet catchy I am genuinely impressed
AND FOR THE PHONE SCENE I LEGIT COULDNT SLEEP AT NIGHT BECAUSE I GOT A CALL WHILE I WAS PLAYING THIS BGM AND I GOT A FUCKING HEART ATTACK
Holy shit i would piss myself if this happend lol
Басы на максимум. Может, это только у меня в наушниках, но кажись они щас взорвутся.

I don't know about you guys, but I remember this music best for arc 3, when Keiichi comes to his 'epiphany'.
Sounds like Professor Layton is going to pop up any minute now.
you have good taste my friend
OMG that's actually so accurate

Good luck
as other ppl have said, this really sounds like a layton song. It really reminds me of some of the tracks from unwound future specifically.
sounds kinda like a song that would play during a boss battle
- "Rena's Meteors" : A game in which Rena is giving punches, to the left or the right : you must click right or left button before it hits you.
- "Flash Keiichi" : A picture of Angel Mort Rena has been cut into much pieces, which are apparing randomly on the screen then disappear. The goal is to click on three of each pieces to complete the picture, while not clicking on Satoko's traps.

The menacing orchestration reminds me of Overture of the End (Princess Shroob's Theme) from Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time 🍄👽
This is what turning crazy sounds like
This song kinda depresses me too, probably because it usually means "Whoops! Happy fun time is over! Time to fxxk sxxt up!".

I swear that during a high period of time I thought this was a song ripped directly from a Layton game
Oh my God.
I had stayed a while without listening to this, then I came back and listened to it.
Now I know why it's on my favorites.
@193Raiden It plays in Tatarigoroshi, I think, when Keiichi goes to Dr. Irie to confess that he "killed" Satoko's uncle, then Irie leaves the room and tells everyone how Keiichi's crazy and needs to be institutionalized.

This sounds like if you were fighting a final fantasy boss not scary

oh!

Though I think you're right, Kai does not have such issues, I think... so I must have been misinformed. :)
@Upsilon927 you're joking... the melody is completely different.
Windwaker type beat
@Lukeskywalker62 *curses the MG ver.for not having the mini-games* xD
@seieireppa Well, of course most tracks play in more than one arc, but I was more referring to where the track was first played.
@vanishy0urself hmm, i thought no one composed for the higurashi VN yet at that time, so he just picked some free doujin songs if i'm not mistaken? :/
"Fascism"...? O_o
Without history lessons it cannot be seen
Btw I checked the game's files and it doesn't sound as bad in here, couldn't it be youtube that crippled the audio quality?
Why does this sound like Professor Layton music

Well if you think about it, this is an old series. Plus it somewhat adds to the eerie tone this song creates.
Actually, tbh this sounds like something out of a Pokemon Gameboy.
The original music is by and large more varied (and there's just more of it), but the MangaGamer "scary" music is a lot better.
