Another part about this jumping puzzle that I thought was extremely unique is to my knowledge. It’s the only jumping puzzle in the game that has a monologue, so it makes it feel like you’re actually being watched as opposed to feeling like you caught a break in the storm.
I've finished the raid this song is a part of Deep Stone Crypt 47 times and the moment this song comes in is incredible every time. The raid takes place in part on a space satellite and the song starts as you being a space walk with the rest of the sounds in the game drowning out and a monologue about the consequences the progression of the raid will have. Easily my most memorable moment in the game.
Worth to mention, that you and your team are right after pretty intense fight with one of bosses. Then going through some sort of decompressing chamber, while all of gun sounds are starting to fade away and being muffled while this piece starts getting louder than any other sound source. Pretty amazing moment to witness for the first time as Destiny player.
i sherpa this raid alot and wen it comes to space walk with new players my one thing i say is everyone mute your mic n just enjoy ! cause hands down the best exp in a raid to date ! the ost hits hard n for new lights and old its defo a song we can all listen to over n over !
There's a race on day 1 of every raid launch to be the first team in the world to clear it and THIS song made teams stop dead in their tracks. I don't know how else to describe how breathtaking a players first experience of this song is than that. as for a more aggressive ost you cant go wrong with "The First Disciple"
My old clan litters told each other to stop for me my first tike so I cld experience this. I legit almost cried cuz of how beautiful this song just it. Later we did the raid had some laughs shared drinks even through we were all at our own homes. Super good memories eventually I just fell out of contact with them and just quietly moved on with my goals and life. I see the story updates they are all still fine and alive even now and sometimes they comment on my stuff I do miss them and hope them the best. Destiny has showed me so many amazing ppl from beta to this update when I stopped playing. Friends have come and gone lost a few players and we lost a few VA as well but the community was so beautiful and caring when I needed it most
“Enjoying yourselves, intruders? It’s worth knowing the cataclysmic damage you will be responsible for today.” The monologue from Clovis mixed with the song and the environment it happens in is pure bliss
I'm so happy that you still did Destiny 2 OST even after the landslide of no votes for it. For aggressive, I would recommend The First Disciple from The Witch Queen soundtrack and Track 1 from it for a fantastic song.
The composer of this piece supposedly based it on a phenomenon in the setting called "Exos", people in robotic bodies. However, a flaw in these bodies make the person contained within slowly decay, eventually requiring a "reset" that fundamentally changes who they are. This song is depicting the first time each person awoke as their new selves, the discovery of what they now were and the building decay until they have to be reset, only for functionally a new person to awaken for the first time once more.
This piece plays at the midpoint of the Deep Stone Crypt raid. After defeating the first boss, you do a space walk overlooking the moon Europa. The track starts as soon as the airlock opens. So much sentimentality in this for me. When this raid first came out, my team was stuck on the aforementioned boss for 8 long hours. Hearing this right after was like no other music experience in a video game. Amazing stuff.
Experiences like that are where Bungie peak imo. They're infrequent, but they're always so powerful. It was the case with Halo when they were involved and now the same with Destiny 2
This song is supposedly meant to portray the moment leading up to the creation of an Exo, which is a robotic humanoid with their mind carried over from a living human. The part near the end that seems to be building towards a crescendo before cutting to silence is supposedly when the human body dies. Shortly thereafter, when the Exo opens their eyes for the first time, the music kicks back in. I'm no music nerd, but I'm told the closing bit holds more synthetic sounds, which is supposedly symbolic of the person now being in a synthetic body.
I’ve always interpreted this slightly differently. The DSL is about one whole day: The night you fall asleep for the very last time, and the day you awaken anew, empowered, eternal. The opening chords are the last random neural firings of a brain falling asleep, and as such sound “right” even when they’re played out of tempo. Suddenly, your eyes open again and the body’s irregular organic rhythm is replaced with perfect digital precision represented by the synth bassline. As you learn your body and perform your first tests, the music swells in time with how far you have exceeded human capability and the gravity of your moment. 7,500psi grip strength, 0.03/20 vision, a “correct and accurate grasp of statistics and probabilities,” you can’t believe what you’ve become and it’s overwhelming. But towards the end, something goes wrong. A runaway feedback loop, a buffer overflow represented in the trilling of all notes, a terminal crash. Nothing to be afraid of though, this is science! Reboot him. Welcome to the world, Perry-2. Let’s get you testing :)
once u start listening to destiny music, u start to get addicted to their soundtracks, it's honestly a masterpiece. destiny has HUNDREDS of osts and they r all literally amazing
Deep Stone Lullaby is one of those OST's that holds a special place in a game's community. Not for how great it is (which it is), but for the atmosphere that is creates. Deep Stone Lullaby played after a grueling boss fight on the day one raid race (a prestiegous event where multiple teams compete to complete the new raid first). Many were exhausted and frustrated, but when this OST played it provided a rare sense of fulfillment. Not only was the moment in game beautiful, but the OST helped calmed and clear the minds of raiders. On top of being an amazing piece of music, the moment in which it was first heard remains a hallmark in Destiny's history. If I were to suggest any other OST's from Destiny 2, I would suggest The First Disciple (for a bit more aggressive, heart pumping OST) and Journey (which gives similar vibes to Deep Stone Lullaby, and is remembered for similar reasons).
This track is sort of a reward as a moment of decompression and peace after a difficult boss battle, while you’re making your way outside of a space station onto the next encounter. I love when games have these moments that have you slow down and decompress, and some calming music plays after a significant and impactful event in the game. Such as the infamous ladder climb of Metal Gear Solid 3 where “Snake Eater” plays, and the long horse ride home in Red Dead Redemption 2 where “Unshaken” plays.
If anyone on the raid team is playing as an Exo character, there is an alternate voice line from the AI: "Exo lifeforms present. Welcome Home." It feels very personal to those who enjoyed playing Exo for the game's entire career until then but were always starved for lore about their character's place in the greater world.
Hearing this track for the first time on that jumping puzzle right after going through such an annoying encounter of the raid was something I can never forget,it was like the reward to calm the entire team down after being stuck on that encounter for so long…
So for an added bit of In-Universe context for this particular piece of music. Deep Stone Lullaby tells the brief story of the many people who lay down to sleep for the last time as a flesh and blood human within the Deep Stone Crypt before their consciousness was transferred into new bodies of circuit and steel, becoming one of the Exo. With knowledge of the greater story of the Exo the song also carries a sense of sadness as becoming an Exo turned out to be nothing like what they had been told, their bodies flawed and imperfect designs wrought by a callous egomaniac at whose hands many would suffer truly horrid deaths in his pursuit of immortality.
The moment this was played was during the intermission in the raid Deep Stone Crypt. But I feel in love with this tune long before I even got the expansion. And to this day, it's saved in my playlist, and always played in the most monumentous moments of my life. It's very peaceful.
The scene that this accompanies is utterly sublime. You’re on a space station, orbiting the moon Europa, and you’re about to step outside. As you do, all the sound falls away, and you are treated to this song as you clamber along the outside of this enormous craft, Europa and Jupiter hanging in the sky. To accompany it, you are given this monologue by an AI recreation of Clovis Bray the First, Destiny’s own megalomaniacal genius, who managed to produce the Exos, which are digitized human consciousnesses, given functional immortality in their synthetic shells. “Artificial Intelligence activated. Enjoying yourselves, intruders? It’s worth knowing the cataclysmic damage you will be responsible for today. Do not fools yourselves - this facility is not simply the fruitless work of some pathetic scientist. This house was built by the genius Clovis Bray the First himself. Within lies humanity’s salvation - La Fontaine du Jouvence. Made possible by Clarity Control. Magnificent, wasn’t it? An entity from beyond our own dimension, and the answer to humanity’s eternal struggle: mortality. Were it to fall into the wrong hands, humanity and thy universe would be utterly doomed. I have no reason to believe you are anything other than the wrong hands. You now face godlike judgement. May it extend *eternally.“* The first time experiencing this was, without a doubt, one of the most magical moments I have ever experienced in all my years playing games.
This piece plays during a spacewalk outside a space station in between two boss fights in a raid. The station is a relic from humanity's Golden Age yet we're fighting against the ghosts of the past to try and reclaim some part of our species' glory in order to preserve our future. The dichotomy of the music you mentioned--nostalgia versus a threat; a moment of peace amidst violence--is why it resonates so strongly with Destiny players I feel. Our Guardians don't even know the full scope of what we lost in humanity's collapse but we have to face that unknown, potentially uncovering inconvenient truths and risking great loss to do so.
This theme is basically one of my favorite pieces of Destiny musical history. There’s so much heart and emotion felt in it, and maybe that’s due to where it’s actually played in the game itself, but the idea I heard proposed in a different video that this was more the song of birth for the Exo people, cold machines given life and emotion, it’s almost tangible the feeling of disconnection from the actual soul lying within the metal frame. There’s a cold hope, a dull warmth within a chilled core, and it’s so such a visceral feeling to me.
Thank you SO MUCH for giving this a listen! This song is so incredibly special to me. If you want more destiny, I would recommend the song "Journey". It's absolutely a masterclass in melodic building/extension.
I personally think that while a lot of the songs that are in this game make you feel a certain drive, a passion, something to unleash the inner beast, this is one of the songs where you just sit back and think. You think about the past and future, maybe you start to cry a little, maybe you laugh, it doesn't matter. Cuz in the end, you will keep going, a little bit stronger than you were before. It's a beautiful song.
The part @4:48 invokes falling asleep for the last time and being reborn as an Exo (space robot with human emotion, think cyborg) and having your memories wiped. Starting over. The return of the music is like you just rebooted. D2 player for a year now.
It was our first spacewalk outside a long lost spacestation that was used to create the first robotic bodies for deceased humans, a species in Destiny called "Exos" It held a lot of secrets about the man who created them, and did many other things, he was also the father of the mysterious guide from the original game, practically the man who created every human advancement in the universe
I had just spent 13 hours endlessly fighting a boss over and over and over in this game... with my team on day one release of a "raid" content and then when we finally beat it.. i was met with this while walking in space... I swear i teared up. It made all the pain and suffering... all worth it. It motivated me to push on and i finished this battle.. I won. I will never forget this song.
the moment you step out into space during the raid where this ost plays is something else... d2 is one of the only games i actually bought after playing the demo when i first played it 3-4 years ago because of how breathtaking the views and atmosphere in game were and they never disappoint especially with the raids
So idk if anyone else brought up the lore behind this song, but this song represents the last moments before someone is put to sleep before they wake up an exo. Basically this song is the last thing you hear before waking up in a mechanical body with no memory of who you are in a body you don’t recognize since it isn’t really yours.
no way!!!!!!!! the first time I did dsc I just started crying during this part. in my defense, it's magical. every single time. it's safe to say that Beyond Light had best ost. felt more emotional to me, more hopeful but also melancholic and suspenseful.
I'm a returning player/new light (pretty much only played campaigns since the red war) and I can only hope to start doing dungeons and raids in Lightfall but for some reason, even though this is not nostalgic or a callback to me at all I also started crying listening to this on youtube.
this song brings back an immense feeling of nostalgia playing destiny 1 and 2 for me, so many incredible people and moments i’ve had, makes me cry seeing as it’s over and i’ve loved on
So this track is part of a "raid", you head to a space station experimentation facility that creates sentient human minded robots called "exos". You leave an airlock midway through the raid, the sounds go muted due to being in space, you then hear this song kick in as you have to navigate the outside of the space station in orbit above Europa. Breathtaking moment and still holds that same impact everytime
Every time I take someone through this raid that has never done it before, I tell them to turn on their in game music just for this OST. Beautifully made.
The big thing that makes this piece so beloved is that immediately prior to when this takes place, the music is incredibly hectic, as is/was the boss. It's accompanied by a "space walk" over Europa, which provides a very uniquely peaceful experience, serving as a lovely juxtaposition to what, at it's initial release, was an incredibly difficult fight where some people spent HOURS with no success. Little moments to counterpoint the big ones, you know? I'm a musician as well (concert percussion and some brass and choral experience), and a lot of the Destiny soundtrack has been inspiration for my ideas and writings. There are very few pieces from the soundtracks similar to this one, save for a few - the string quartet and choral versions of "Journey" (I love the choral version, personally), a piece called "Rememberance" from the Taken King's soundtrack, and the track "Keep of Voices" as it was used in Season of the Lost. Just some really rare bits of perfect melancholy in music.
here super late, but man this song is incredible. its nostalgic and to me feels like what i would hear as my life flashes before my eyes (as morbis as that is lol) just something about looking back on all the happy memories, and remembering why life was so good. it also has wonder, what i would imagine i would hear as we venture out into deep uncharted space.
⏩ Video Question: For my next Destiny Reaction I want to do something that is big and aggressive from the OST. Which piece should I do?? For live content catch me on Twitch. www.twitch.tv/drumrolltony
I really like "The First Disciple" from the newest raid, it's really powerful and a fun listen. If not that track, definitely consider listening to a raid boss' track like the Riven OST or the Phase 2 Insurrection Prime theme.
WOWW No way you reacted to this! I've been playing destiny 2 for so long and didn't think you would listen to this so I never even thought to suggest it. If you really liked this soundtrack, just listen to the entire destiny soundtrack from Destiny 1 to Destiny 2 Lightfall its genuinely crazy how an underrated game like Destiny 2 has such a great soundtrack
This song still gives me chills. Been playing this game since its first day in 2014 and it has had some unbelievable music but this one, this one was absolutely special especially in the context of when it happens.
I adore Destiny music so much. It's so good at inspiring emotion; making you hyped for a battle, making you mourn a loss, making you sit and think. Integral part of the Destiny experience. The [press start] page when you first load up Destiny has always had such bangers that sometimes I'll just sit there and hum along to it for a while before loading in.
The first time I heard Deep stone lullaby was on Day one of the deep stone crypt raid coming out and after about spending 9 hours in that raid reaching that point felt so relieving, granted we still didn't finish the raid unfortunately
Just a random Destiny nerd stopping by - My raid team spent twelve hours on the raid encounter that leads up to the moment where Deep Stone Lullaby first starts. When we got to the spacewalk and this started, my oh my oh my. The absolute relief at clearing a 12-hour encounter, the beauty of the scenery, accompanied by this? Probably my favorites Destiny moment in almost 10 years.
Bro I love your channel and how you review music, it makes me so happy knowing you were in drum line, I played snare and tenors (quads w/ a spock drum) so i can relate to the musical lingo lol. The songs and music you review are like my life in a book, everything to j pop and k pop to anime music and video game music, no judgement just a full honest review of the piece before you. Keep up the amazing content! I will always be here for it!
Lol it's funny that you added quads with a spock drum in parenthesis. Drumline is still a daily part of my life. Good to have more Drumline members here on the channel
This song always sparked something emotional inside of me. We hear this during the jumping puzzle in the raid overlooking earth and the galaxy around us. Its so impactfull especially in that specific moment. You step outside into space and the best way to describe it, is that Its the untimate realization of how big the universe truly is. I can't really explain in it words how that moment when I first steped outside into space and heard this song is. If you played the raid, you know exactly what I mean.
coming from someone who did this on day one, if you don't know its when a raid first comes out its more difficult on a contest mode that only lasts the first 24 hours of the raids release with teams racing to be worlds first (I'm not that good) so our team aimed for day one and it included a lot of figuring out mechanics and trying to push forward after continued repetitiveness we made it to this part of the raid the spacewalk. after such intense cut throat moments and blood pumping encounters we made it here, the music and environment and the way that it sort of felt like your ears were being numbed by the sounds outside the space station and the enemies shooting you didn't feel like that much of a threat with this soundtrack playing in the background. It was a breath of fresh air and a moment to really gather your thoughts while you see Europa this moon that isn't even a planet but during this moment it felt monumental and like everything we were doing didn't really matter during this moment. it was beautiful and something I wish I could do for the first time again.
For the average music enjoyer, this is a beautiful piece. For the average day 1 raider who was gifted this song after 5-10 hours of smashing their face into the encounter right before the spacewalk, it is a transcendent one.
Seriously the context of where and when this is happening is incredible. Gives me chills just thinking about it. The first time I heard it oooh it damn near brought me to tears.
I think the fact that he can't see that moment of you stepping into space and just the vastness around you as the light shining off europa surrounds you. Its such a contrast from the stressful combat you were just in, it's a second to breathe and admire a beautiful game.
This is my favorite moment in all of destiny. A fantastic song, with the greatest set piece of space, all with an amazing monologue by the genius Clovis Bray the First!
this song occurs after a you win a big fight and are released into the peaceful arms of space after a door opens, here you can see amazing views of the planet below and the nature of it all is incredible, this means so much to everyone in destiny, it is like a moment of quiet in all the chaos
this music is about sleeping for the last time and then waking up to a new body(cyborg body), you can tell after @4:11 the slight pause then starting off to a new music signifying the waking up
First time I heard that music happen in the deep stone crypt raid we all fell into silence and just vibed in the space walk. Now every time I take someone new through it I always tell everyone to quiet down and crank the volume.
This song represents me truly being back into playing destiny. I love raidng in the 1st game but didn't hop on D2 until it went free to play and didn't get back into seriously rating until deep stone crypt. I went from having a few clears across the various raids to having 47 clears in DSC alone. This song encapsulates what makes this game so good.
great fan of your reactions and a fan of destiny too. was pleasantly surprised by this! sure you've been told, but this song plays in a part of a raid where you are floating in space and traversing an orbital station whilst being attacked (but the sound of the firefight is muffled as you are in space, but the song blasts in the meanwhile!)
What this means to most people... is a sense of relief... and complete awe. The fight that proceeds this track was ROUGH. It was the run breaker for a lot of people for a while. And so you come out of this very intense encounter. Open up into the majesty of orbiting Europa... and see open... empty... space. And you navigate the outside of the station that a lot of the raid takes place in. It will be one of those moments that lives strong in the community of destiny for many years to come.
for deepstone lullaby I think one part that makes players like it a lot more is the experience, the feeling of jumping on the outside of the space station looking at the planets and stars around you is unmatched
One of the few moments I cried in a video game, as my first raid and then the whole spacewalk was just phenomenal. Truly one of my all time favorite in video game soundtracks
This song notably plays over a jumping puzzle section atop the exterior of a space station with almost the whole of the moon Europa in the background. It's a very serene and melancholy track considering one of the playable cosmetic races in the game originated in said space station.
This just reminds me of the first spacewalk after defeating Atraks...such a halfway melody that felt like a massive moment to catch your breath..take in the amazing view of Europa..and then throw yourself back into it
This is “the space walk” portion of a 6 player raid after the second encounter in the activity. Destiny the game has contest when new content releases like “Deep Stone Crypt” which is where this song is found. After hours getting to this point, getting to experience music like this is a real treat for us players during world’s first completions.
Played this Raid twice this week already and yes, it does have a high emotional impact as a player. Feels absolutely otherworldly jumping around in space with this going. There is other music in this as well that sounds great.
Every single time I heard the lullaby, I get to re-live the day 1 experience. People loved to talk down about DSC but it's definitely up there on my list of raids. The Crypt AI voiceover really sells it.
This happens during a time in a raid where your guardian is outside in open space above the earth. The other noises are muted (the gun fire, etc) and the music plays. It's peaceful and because you're in space above the earth, it really feels like you're small against the vastness of space. It's an incredible visual and audio moment.
As the song hits as the guardians do their literal "space walk" pretty much cemented the Raid as a goat status, that solace and calm before the storm type of feel
This plays during a Spacewalk where you are in Space and jumping around a space station and satellite. Its mid way through the raid after a boss battle. Some tranquility after some high action. Its beautiful. The visuals are just..*chefs kiss*
One of the most incredible pieces of music Destiny has to offer, and the setting in which it plays is perfection. Jumping around a Space Station in the vacuum of space, Europa in the background, simply amazing
I was just viewing your Polyphia reactions and then I suddenly see this Deep Stone Crypt was my first raid. It makes me cry hearing this again. Thank you !
As a Destiny 2 player who have done this Raid in day one, this OST was a hit, having a troubling time with the encounter before this for 12 hours was something I needed included my fireteam as well, a calming music that sunk me as we explore the space station outside was a beautiful experience.
We have a rule on our clan....radio silence for the entire jump puzzle theme. Started my D2 Journey shortly after Crow Died. I remember spending my New Light era ONLY going to Europa....I ran Stasis only. Such a touching song with many many emotional elements to it.
I’ve only had one other time that a raid’s OST really struck me other than this OST. This OST set such an atmosphere for space that made me love space themed things a lot more. The song itself to me embodies the wonders and curiosity of space. Definitely one of, if not the only song that really hits me emotionally when I hear it.
When I heard this for the first time on the day one raid race after spending 15 hours on the previous boss it’s was such an emotional moment. Definitely one of my most memorable and most loved songs in all of destiny’s amazing catalog of music.
I'm sure damn near any of us would let you borrow an account to experience this in game. It's one of my single favorite memories in the entire game. Clovis Bray's dialogue, and then that first step out into the void of space as this melody picks up. It's amazing.
It's a beautiful song representing the transfer of a human consciousness from their human body to a robotic one - hence the motif becoming more digital as the song goes by.
I think i speak for every long time Destiny player when i say this shit hits the emotions. When you first exit the space station and you have the monologue of Clovis and see the vast space in the distance it just brings up so many emotions of the whole journey to this point, friends met along the way and people lost too. It just hits differently.
This is a totally unexpected background music from the deep stone Crypt Raid, that stormed the community and we all kinda fell in love. The view was from a spacestation in orbit hovering over the last city.
It was the first time our gaurdian in 8 years had gone to space, jumping along the outside of a space station in Europas orbit. All the background sound effects, enemies, footsteps etc all muffled, the space stations a.i talking every so often crying out for our gaurdians to stop all sounding like your wearing a space helmet with this music in full quality just felt right, it synced up so well. I reckon most of us expected some fast, electric music as you fight alot of enemies on the way but deep atone lullaby just fits so well. Bungie have always been on point with sound and music direction.
This is one of the moments in games where they stop being games for a little bit. That moment isn't challenging or fun, silly or exciting. It's awe inspiring. It's a beautiful harmony of different art forms meant to immerse you into the moment completely. The grandness of space and the human accomplishment of reaching it. The magnificence of the frozen moon below you and Jupiter seeming small in the distance. The condemnation of a hero by a dead man who once built the fountain of youth and brought death to humanity. It's a story and a painting and a symphony all in one unending moment. It's overwhelming and intensely memorable.
I just uploaded another Destiny 2 Reaction 👀
REALLY enjoyed Queen's Oracle - You can watch it right here ⤵
ruclips.net/video/-DhjFAY-pAI/видео.html
“You now face godlike judgement. May it extend eternally” the monologue for this is also amazing
Another part about this jumping puzzle that I thought was extremely unique is to my knowledge. It’s the only jumping puzzle in the game that has a monologue, so it makes it feel like you’re actually being watched as opposed to feeling like you caught a break in the storm.
''The answer to humanity's eternal struggle: mortality.''
I've finished the raid this song is a part of Deep Stone Crypt 47 times and the moment this song comes in is incredible every time. The raid takes place in part on a space satellite and the song starts as you being a space walk with the rest of the sounds in the game drowning out and a monologue about the consequences the progression of the raid will have. Easily my most memorable moment in the game.
Worth to mention, that you and your team are right after pretty intense fight with one of bosses. Then going through some sort of decompressing chamber, while all of gun sounds are starting to fade away and being muffled while this piece starts getting louder than any other sound source. Pretty amazing moment to witness for the first time as Destiny player.
All the serenity and all a sudden, “GUARDIAN DOWN”

I'm so happy that you still did Destiny 2 OST even after the landslide of no votes for it. For aggressive, I would recommend The First Disciple from The Witch Queen soundtrack and Track 1 from it for a fantastic song.
yessss
If he does The First Disciple, I recommend the mix done by Promethean, Archival Mind.
I also like Frigid Tomb a lot
The composer of this piece supposedly based it on a phenomenon in the setting called "Exos", people in robotic bodies. However, a flaw in these bodies make the person contained within slowly decay, eventually requiring a "reset" that fundamentally changes who they are. This song is depicting the first time each person awoke as their new selves, the discovery of what they now were and the building decay until they have to be reset, only for functionally a new person to awaken for the first time once more.
Beautiful explanation
This piece plays at the midpoint of the Deep Stone Crypt raid. After defeating the first boss, you do a space walk overlooking the moon Europa. The track starts as soon as the airlock opens.
So much sentimentality in this for me. When this raid first came out, my team was stuck on the aforementioned boss for 8 long hours. Hearing this right after was like no other music experience in a video game. Amazing stuff.
so relatable! happened to my team too!
I think atraks is second boss
@@blackpancake6354 if you want to count crypt security as a boss then sure
Experiences like that are where Bungie peak imo. They're infrequent, but they're always so powerful. It was the case with Halo when they were involved and now the same with Destiny 2
Exact same experience. This song was catharsis after we got past Atraks.
This song is supposedly meant to portray the moment leading up to the creation of an Exo, which is a robotic humanoid with their mind carried over from a living human.
The part near the end that seems to be building towards a crescendo before cutting to silence is supposedly when the human body dies. Shortly thereafter, when the Exo opens their eyes for the first time, the music kicks back in. I'm no music nerd, but I'm told the closing bit holds more synthetic sounds, which is supposedly symbolic of the person now being in a synthetic body.
if your comment isnt correct then it darn well should be.. that tells it better than any other
I’ve always interpreted this slightly differently. The DSL is about one whole day: The night you fall asleep for the very last time, and the day you awaken anew, empowered, eternal. The opening chords are the last random neural firings of a brain falling asleep, and as such sound “right” even when they’re played out of tempo. Suddenly, your eyes open again and the body’s irregular organic rhythm is replaced with perfect digital precision represented by the synth bassline. As you learn your body and perform your first tests, the music swells in time with how far you have exceeded human capability and the gravity of your moment. 7,500psi grip strength, 0.03/20 vision, a “correct and accurate grasp of statistics and probabilities,” you can’t believe what you’ve become and it’s overwhelming.
But towards the end, something goes wrong. A runaway feedback loop, a buffer overflow represented in the trilling of all notes, a terminal crash. Nothing to be afraid of though, this is science! Reboot him.
Welcome to the world, Perry-2. Let’s get you testing :)
once u start listening to destiny music, u start to get addicted to their soundtracks, it's honestly a masterpiece. destiny has HUNDREDS of osts and they r all literally amazing
They are so unbelievably good. I still listen to them constantly.
Deep Stone Lullaby is one of those OST's that holds a special place in a game's community. Not for how great it is (which it is), but for the atmosphere that is creates. Deep Stone Lullaby played after a grueling boss fight on the day one raid race (a prestiegous event where multiple teams compete to complete the new raid first). Many were exhausted and frustrated, but when this OST played it provided a rare sense of fulfillment. Not only was the moment in game beautiful, but the OST helped calmed and clear the minds of raiders. On top of being an amazing piece of music, the moment in which it was first heard remains a hallmark in Destiny's history.
If I were to suggest any other OST's from Destiny 2, I would suggest The First Disciple (for a bit more aggressive, heart pumping OST) and Journey (which gives similar vibes to Deep Stone Lullaby, and is remembered for similar reasons).
This track is sort of a reward as a moment of decompression and peace after a difficult boss battle, while you’re making your way outside of a space station onto the next encounter.
I love when games have these moments that have you slow down and decompress, and some calming music plays after a significant and impactful event in the game. Such as the infamous ladder climb of Metal Gear Solid 3 where “Snake Eater” plays, and the long horse ride home in Red Dead Redemption 2 where “Unshaken” plays.
If anyone on the raid team is playing as an Exo character, there is an alternate voice line from the AI: "Exo lifeforms present. Welcome Home."
It feels very personal to those who enjoyed playing Exo for the game's entire career until then but were always starved for lore about their character's place in the greater world.
Dude 👌 I never know about that!
The people that you get patrols from in the dreaming city call awoken “brother” or “sister” when they greet you.
@@siromnoms Oh yeah, and I remember back in D1 the NPCs on the Reef would sometimes call Awoken players "cos" or "cousin"!
@@siromnoms really? i always get cousin lol
@@brianmahony7919 you probably don’t have the raid seal then, cousin is the other as an awoken.
If you do, idk what to tell ya.
Hearing this track for the first time on that jumping puzzle right after going through such an annoying encounter of the raid was something I can never forget,it was like the reward to calm the entire team down after being stuck on that encounter for so long…
So for an added bit of In-Universe context for this particular piece of music. Deep Stone Lullaby tells the brief story of the many people who lay down to sleep for the last time as a flesh and blood human within the Deep Stone Crypt before their consciousness was transferred into new bodies of circuit and steel, becoming one of the Exo. With knowledge of the greater story of the Exo the song also carries a sense of sadness as becoming an Exo turned out to be nothing like what they had been told, their bodies flawed and imperfect designs wrought by a callous egomaniac at whose hands many would suffer truly horrid deaths in his pursuit of immortality.
The moment this was played was during the intermission in the raid Deep Stone Crypt.
But I feel in love with this tune long before I even got the expansion.
And to this day, it's saved in my playlist, and always played in the most monumentous moments of my life.
It's very peaceful.
The scene that this accompanies is utterly sublime. You’re on a space station, orbiting the moon Europa, and you’re about to step outside. As you do, all the sound falls away, and you are treated to this song as you clamber along the outside of this enormous craft, Europa and Jupiter hanging in the sky.
To accompany it, you are given this monologue by an AI recreation of Clovis Bray the First, Destiny’s own megalomaniacal genius, who managed to produce the Exos, which are digitized human consciousnesses, given functional immortality in their synthetic shells.
“Artificial Intelligence activated.
Enjoying yourselves, intruders? It’s worth knowing the cataclysmic damage you will be responsible for today.
Do not fools yourselves - this facility is not simply the fruitless work of some pathetic scientist. This house was built by the genius Clovis Bray the First himself. Within lies humanity’s salvation - La Fontaine du Jouvence. Made possible by Clarity Control.
Magnificent, wasn’t it? An entity from beyond our own dimension, and the answer to humanity’s eternal struggle: mortality.
Were it to fall into the wrong hands, humanity and thy universe would be utterly doomed. I have no reason to believe you are anything other than the wrong hands.
You now face godlike judgement. May it extend *eternally.“*
The first time experiencing this was, without a doubt, one of the most magical moments I have ever experienced in all my years playing games.
This piece plays during a spacewalk outside a space station in between two boss fights in a raid. The station is a relic from humanity's Golden Age yet we're fighting against the ghosts of the past to try and reclaim some part of our species' glory in order to preserve our future. The dichotomy of the music you mentioned--nostalgia versus a threat; a moment of peace amidst violence--is why it resonates so strongly with Destiny players I feel.
Our Guardians don't even know the full scope of what we lost in humanity's collapse but we have to face that unknown, potentially uncovering inconvenient truths and risking great loss to do so.
This theme is basically one of my favorite pieces of Destiny musical history. There’s so much heart and emotion felt in it, and maybe that’s due to where it’s actually played in the game itself, but the idea I heard proposed in a different video that this was more the song of birth for the Exo people, cold machines given life and emotion, it’s almost tangible the feeling of disconnection from the actual soul lying within the metal frame. There’s a cold hope, a dull warmth within a chilled core, and it’s so such a visceral feeling to me.
It’s part of a “space walk” in some end game content that is really scenic and beautiful
Thank you SO MUCH for giving this a listen! This song is so incredibly special to me. If you want more destiny, I would recommend the song "Journey". It's absolutely a masterclass in melodic building/extension.
I personally think that while a lot of the songs that are in this game make you feel a certain drive, a passion, something to unleash the inner beast, this is one of the songs where you just sit back and think. You think about the past and future, maybe you start to cry a little, maybe you laugh, it doesn't matter. Cuz in the end, you will keep going, a little bit stronger than you were before. It's a beautiful song.
The part @4:48 invokes falling asleep for the last time and being reborn as an Exo (space robot with human emotion, think cyborg) and having your memories wiped. Starting over. The return of the music is like you just rebooted. D2 player for a year now.
It was our first spacewalk outside a long lost spacestation that was used to create the first robotic bodies for deceased humans, a species in Destiny called "Exos"
It held a lot of secrets about the man who created them, and did many other things, he was also the father of the mysterious guide from the original game, practically the man who created every human advancement in the universe
I had just spent 13 hours endlessly fighting a boss over and over and over in this game... with my team on day one release of a "raid" content and then when we finally beat it.. i was met with this while walking in space... I swear i teared up. It made all the pain and suffering... all worth it. It motivated me to push on and i finished this battle.. I won. I will never forget this song.
the ost games reactions has became one of my favourite content of this channel. So much variety. Thanks Tony
I get chills every time i hear it. Its my favorite moment in Destiny
the moment you step out into space during the raid where this ost plays is something else... d2 is one of the only games i actually bought after playing the demo when i first played it 3-4 years ago because of how breathtaking the views and atmosphere in game were and they never disappoint especially with the raids
This song is about going to sleep as a human for the last time and waking up as an Exo.
So idk if anyone else brought up the lore behind this song, but this song represents the last moments before someone is put to sleep before they wake up an exo. Basically this song is the last thing you hear before waking up in a mechanical body with no memory of who you are in a body you don’t recognize since it isn’t really yours.
no way!!!!!!!! the first time I did dsc I just started crying during this part. in my defense, it's magical. every single time. it's safe to say that Beyond Light had best ost. felt more emotional to me, more hopeful but also melancholic and suspenseful.
bro I still cry every time I go through it, you're right, it's magical
I'm a returning player/new light (pretty much only played campaigns since the red war) and I can only hope to start doing dungeons and raids in Lightfall but for some reason, even though this is not nostalgic or a callback to me at all I also started crying listening to this on youtube.
“Journey” from the original Destiny 2 soundtrack …. My absolute favorite!
It's about someone going to sleep for the last time. Death.
If i were to Die id want this to be played and all my friends remember the amount of times i had fallen off.
A beautiful, Sweet and calm memory
this song brings back an immense feeling of nostalgia playing destiny 1 and 2 for me, so many incredible people and moments i’ve had, makes me cry seeing as it’s over and i’ve loved on
That's a great game experience
The backdrop of space and its quietness mixed with this song is what makes it IMO. Scaling the side of the space station is pure ecstasy .
Hearing this, while jumping platforms in outer space is really a different experience
“Enjoying yourselves, intruders?''
as others have no doubt said, Regicide. That's one of the best tracks in both games. Very bold and punchy orchestral piece
So this track is part of a "raid", you head to a space station experimentation facility that creates sentient human minded robots called "exos". You leave an airlock midway through the raid, the sounds go muted due to being in space, you then hear this song kick in as you have to navigate the outside of the space station in orbit above Europa. Breathtaking moment and still holds that same impact everytime
Ohhhh that’s so good I love this song it happens during a jumping puzzle and the view is amazing during the song
Every time I take someone through this raid that has never done it before, I tell them to turn on their in game music just for this OST. Beautifully made.
That's cool that you do that
The big thing that makes this piece so beloved is that immediately prior to when this takes place, the music is incredibly hectic, as is/was the boss. It's accompanied by a "space walk" over Europa, which provides a very uniquely peaceful experience, serving as a lovely juxtaposition to what, at it's initial release, was an incredibly difficult fight where some people spent HOURS with no success.
Little moments to counterpoint the big ones, you know?
I'm a musician as well (concert percussion and some brass and choral experience), and a lot of the Destiny soundtrack has been inspiration for my ideas and writings. There are very few pieces from the soundtracks similar to this one, save for a few - the string quartet and choral versions of "Journey" (I love the choral version, personally), a piece called "Rememberance" from the Taken King's soundtrack, and the track "Keep of Voices" as it was used in Season of the Lost. Just some really rare bits of perfect melancholy in music.
here super late, but man this song is incredible. its nostalgic and to me feels like what i would hear as my life flashes before my eyes (as morbis as that is lol) just something about looking back on all the happy memories, and remembering why life was so good.
it also has wonder, what i would imagine i would hear as we venture out into deep uncharted space.
⏩ Video Question: For my next Destiny Reaction I want to do something that is big and aggressive from the OST. Which piece should I do??
For live content catch me on Twitch. www.twitch.tv/drumrolltony
React to The First Disciple
Shell of What Was III
Sup Tony, I’d recommend Riven of a Thousand Voices, gotta be one of the coolest tracks in the game with a bunch of diff parts to it
I really like "The First Disciple" from the newest raid, it's really powerful and a fun listen. If not that track, definitely consider listening to a raid boss' track like the Riven OST or the Phase 2 Insurrection Prime theme.
Regicide is a classic! Really captures the enormity and atmosphere of the sound and in the portrayal of the looming threat.
It truly tells a story.
WOWW No way you reacted to this! I've been playing destiny 2 for so long and didn't think you would listen to this so I never even thought to suggest it. If you really liked this soundtrack, just listen to the entire destiny soundtrack from Destiny 1 to Destiny 2 Lightfall its genuinely crazy how an underrated game like Destiny 2 has such a great soundtrack
This song still gives me chills. Been playing this game since its first day in 2014 and it has had some unbelievable music but this one, this one was absolutely special especially in the context of when it happens.
me and 5 people crying after 6 hours of bossfighting
This video is how I discovered you and I love your analysis, not to mention you enjoying this masterpiece proves you know music lol
I adore Destiny music so much. It's so good at inspiring emotion; making you hyped for a battle, making you mourn a loss, making you sit and think. Integral part of the Destiny experience.
The [press start] page when you first load up Destiny has always had such bangers that sometimes I'll just sit there and hum along to it for a while before loading in.
This song is actualy supposed to symbolize going to sleep for the last time and waking up as an exo with all your memory wiped.
The first time I heard Deep stone lullaby was on Day one of the deep stone crypt raid coming out and after about spending 9 hours in that raid reaching that point felt so relieving, granted we still didn't finish the raid unfortunately
0:52 it happens on a space station and have a jumping puzzle where players have to jump in space to another point of the space station.
I always get chills when this plays.. and I still remember experiencing this for the first time in the raid...
Just a random Destiny nerd stopping by - My raid team spent twelve hours on the raid encounter that leads up to the moment where Deep Stone Lullaby first starts. When we got to the spacewalk and this started, my oh my oh my. The absolute relief at clearing a 12-hour encounter, the beauty of the scenery, accompanied by this? Probably my favorites Destiny moment in almost 10 years.
everytime im at the jumping puzzle i mute everyone and only put max volume for music! CHILLS EVERYTIME!
Bro I love your channel and how you review music, it makes me so happy knowing you were in drum line, I played snare and tenors (quads w/ a spock drum) so i can relate to the musical lingo lol. The songs and music you review are like my life in a book, everything to j pop and k pop to anime music and video game music, no judgement just a full honest review of the piece before you. Keep up the amazing content! I will always be here for it!
Lol it's funny that you added quads with a spock drum in parenthesis. Drumline is still a daily part of my life. Good to have more Drumline members here on the channel
@@DrumRollTonyReacts well before we did have quads but our band director bought spocks to mount on lol
This song always sparked something emotional inside of me. We hear this during the jumping puzzle in the raid overlooking earth and the galaxy around us. Its so impactfull especially in that specific moment. You step outside into space and the best way to describe it, is that Its the untimate realization of how big the universe truly is. I can't really explain in it words how that moment when I first steped outside into space and heard this song is. If you played the raid, you know exactly what I mean.
coming from someone who did this on day one, if you don't know its when a raid first comes out its more difficult on a contest mode that only lasts the first 24 hours of the raids release with teams racing to be worlds first (I'm not that good) so our team aimed for day one and it included a lot of figuring out mechanics and trying to push forward after continued repetitiveness we made it to this part of the raid the spacewalk. after such intense cut throat moments and blood pumping encounters we made it here, the music and environment and the way that it sort of felt like your ears were being numbed by the sounds outside the space station and the enemies shooting you didn't feel like that much of a threat with this soundtrack playing in the background. It was a breath of fresh air and a moment to really gather your thoughts while you see Europa this moon that isn't even a planet but during this moment it felt monumental and like everything we were doing didn't really matter during this moment. it was beautiful and something I wish I could do for the first time again.
For the average music enjoyer, this is a beautiful piece.
For the average day 1 raider who was gifted this song after 5-10 hours of smashing their face into the encounter right before the spacewalk, it is a transcendent one.
Seriously the context of where and when this is happening is incredible. Gives me chills just thinking about it. The first time I heard it oooh it damn near brought me to tears.
I think the fact that he can't see that moment of you stepping into space and just the vastness around you as the light shining off europa surrounds you.
Its such a contrast from the stressful combat you were just in, it's a second to breathe and admire a beautiful game.
This is my favorite moment in all of destiny. A fantastic song, with the greatest set piece of space, all with an amazing monologue by the genius Clovis Bray the First!
This song and The Lat Array from D1 give me chills every time.
This music queue happens during the space walk/jumping puzzle in the Deep Stone Crypt raid. Easily one of my favorite experiences in Destiny
this song occurs after a you win a big fight and are released into the peaceful arms of space after a door opens, here you can see amazing views of the planet below and the nature of it all is incredible, this means so much to everyone in destiny, it is like a moment of quiet in all the chaos
this music is about sleeping for the last time and then waking up to a new body(cyborg body), you can tell after @4:11 the slight pause then starting off to a new music signifying the waking up
First time I heard that music happen in the deep stone crypt raid we all fell into silence and just vibed in the space walk. Now every time I take someone new through it I always tell everyone to quiet down and crank the volume.
This song represents me truly being back into playing destiny. I love raidng in the 1st game but didn't hop on D2 until it went free to play and didn't get back into seriously rating until deep stone crypt. I went from having a few clears across the various raids to having 47 clears in DSC alone. This song encapsulates what makes this game so good.
This song is happening during a jumping puzzle of the Deepstone Crypt raid. Incredible lullaby one of my favorites from Destiny 2.
great fan of your reactions and a fan of destiny too. was pleasantly surprised by this! sure you've been told, but this song plays in a part of a raid where you are floating in space and traversing an orbital station whilst being attacked (but the sound of the firefight is muffled as you are in space, but the song blasts in the meanwhile!)
What this means to most people... is a sense of relief... and complete awe. The fight that proceeds this track was ROUGH. It was the run breaker for a lot of people for a while. And so you come out of this very intense encounter. Open up into the majesty of orbiting Europa... and see open... empty... space. And you navigate the outside of the station that a lot of the raid takes place in. It will be one of those moments that lives strong in the community of destiny for many years to come.
for deepstone lullaby I think one part that makes players like it a lot more is the experience, the feeling of jumping on the outside of the space station looking at the planets and stars around you is unmatched
One of the few moments I cried in a video game, as my first raid and then the whole spacewalk was just phenomenal. Truly one of my all time favorite in video game soundtracks
This song notably plays over a jumping puzzle section atop the exterior of a space station with almost the whole of the moon Europa in the background. It's a very serene and melancholy track considering one of the playable cosmetic races in the game originated in said space station.
This just reminds me of the first spacewalk after defeating Atraks...such a halfway melody that felt like a massive moment to catch your breath..take in the amazing view of Europa..and then throw yourself back into it
This is “the space walk” portion of a 6 player raid after the second encounter in the activity. Destiny the game has contest when new content releases like “Deep Stone Crypt” which is where this song is found. After hours getting to this point, getting to experience music like this is a real treat for us players during world’s first completions.
Played this Raid twice this week already and yes, it does have a high emotional impact as a player. Feels absolutely otherworldly jumping around in space with this going. There is other music in this as well that sounds great.
Every single time I heard the lullaby, I get to re-live the day 1 experience. People loved to talk down about DSC but it's definitely up there on my list of raids. The Crypt AI voiceover really sells it.
This happens during a time in a raid where your guardian is outside in open space above the earth. The other noises are muted (the gun fire, etc) and the music plays. It's peaceful and because you're in space above the earth, it really feels like you're small against the vastness of space. It's an incredible visual and audio moment.
As the song hits as the guardians do their literal "space walk" pretty much cemented the Raid as a goat status, that solace and calm before the storm type of feel
This plays during a Spacewalk where you are in Space and jumping around a space station and satellite. Its mid way through the raid after a boss battle. Some tranquility after some high action. Its beautiful. The visuals are just..*chefs kiss*
this was my first ever raid in d2, did it with a friend, this song is so comforting to me
This is just you flying true space with this growing true your headphone
One of the most incredible pieces of music Destiny has to offer, and the setting in which it plays is perfection. Jumping around a Space Station in the vacuum of space, Europa in the background, simply amazing
I was just viewing your Polyphia reactions
and then I suddenly see this
Deep Stone Crypt was my first raid. It makes me cry hearing this again. Thank you !
Hearing this on day one is by far my favorite D2 moment ever.
As a Destiny 2 player who have done this Raid in day one, this OST was a hit, having a troubling time with the encounter before this for 12 hours was something I needed included my fireteam as well, a calming music that sunk me as we explore the space station outside was a beautiful experience.
We have a rule on our clan....radio silence for the entire jump puzzle theme.
Started my D2 Journey shortly after Crow Died. I remember spending my New Light era ONLY going to Europa....I ran Stasis only.
Such a touching song with many many emotional elements to it.
I’ve only had one other time that a raid’s OST really struck me other than this OST. This OST set such an atmosphere for space that made me love space themed things a lot more. The song itself to me embodies the wonders and curiosity of space. Definitely one of, if not the only song that really hits me emotionally when I hear it.
When I heard this for the first time on the day one raid race after spending 15 hours on the previous boss it’s was such an emotional moment. Definitely one of my most memorable and most loved songs in all of destiny’s amazing catalog of music.
15 hours. Wow. Destiny is nuts
I'm sure damn near any of us would let you borrow an account to experience this in game. It's one of my single favorite memories in the entire game. Clovis Bray's dialogue, and then that first step out into the void of space as this melody picks up. It's amazing.
“You now face *godlike* judgement, may it extend eternally”
It's a beautiful song representing the transfer of a human consciousness from their human body to a robotic one - hence the motif becoming more digital as the song goes by.
I think i speak for every long time Destiny player when i say this shit hits the emotions. When you first exit the space station and you have the monologue of Clovis and see the vast space in the distance it just brings up so many emotions of the whole journey to this point, friends met along the way and people lost too. It just hits differently.
This is a totally unexpected background music from the deep stone Crypt Raid, that stormed the community and we all kinda fell in love. The view was from a spacestation in orbit hovering over the last city.
It was the first time our gaurdian in 8 years had gone to space, jumping along the outside of a space station in Europas orbit. All the background sound effects, enemies, footsteps etc all muffled, the space stations a.i talking every so often crying out for our gaurdians to stop all sounding like your wearing a space helmet with this music in full quality just felt right, it synced up so well. I reckon most of us expected some fast, electric music as you fight alot of enemies on the way but deep atone lullaby just fits so well. Bungie have always been on point with sound and music direction.
This is one of the moments in games where they stop being games for a little bit. That moment isn't challenging or fun, silly or exciting. It's awe inspiring. It's a beautiful harmony of different art forms meant to immerse you into the moment completely. The grandness of space and the human accomplishment of reaching it. The magnificence of the frozen moon below you and Jupiter seeming small in the distance. The condemnation of a hero by a dead man who once built the fountain of youth and brought death to humanity. It's a story and a painting and a symphony all in one unending moment. It's overwhelming and intensely memorable.
its even better when your running through space with the amazing skybox in the background
it made me so happy to see someone enjoy this song for the first time
