Aberration is the best map. The ecosystem feels so cohesive and I love the fantasy vibe, which can both be cute and haunting. The biomes are gorgeous. The terrors and dangers are not only the creatures, but the environment. Being flyer-exclusive makes the map feel a lot bigger. A lot of the new creatures were amazing, Rock Drake and Reaper, after so many years, are still in my top 5 favourite ARK creatures. Awesome new tools to adapt. The feeling of being stuck on a map like this, I don’t think anything can ever capture that again.
Honestly, even after these recent DLCs, Aberration remains my favorite map in all of ARK, and the soundtrack is just fantastic. This is going to be awesome.
don't get me wrong all of Ark's DLCs have been amazing and I've had a lot of fun with them, however Aberration was so different, so challenging, so well balanced with the lack of flyers that it just stands above all the others in my opinion.
@@AetherandChaos I know. I liked how the other DLCs are as well. In fact, I think they're all amazing. However, like you said, Aberration is different, challenging, and well-balanced with the lack of flyers. That's what makes it the most amazing and fun, in my opinion.
I thought aberration was extremely overrated until I started playing it. All I got to say is, Aberration is the only dlc that can be it’s own game. I enjoyed your music keep up the work always!
I am... 22 seconds in. That is IT. I have already been won over. 11/10 I don't need to hear the rest.... I mean I'm still GONNA listen to the rest but god damn. Well done! I love all the stuff you put out, truly incredible!
If it was an expansion: Zones (Fertile forest and rivers heavy fertile) light fertile (Light) Starts at 2:25, (Heavy starts at 2:40) Light heavy starts at 3:06 Heavy heavy starts at 3:46. biolum light starts at 4:15 biolum heavy starts at 5:03 element light starts at 5:33 element heavy starts at 6:30, grave of lost light is 6:43 grave of lost heavy is 7:14, halls of the reaper queen heavy at 8:22, hall of reaper queen light is 9:05 surface light is 10:04 surface heavy is 10:48, and there you have it.
Aberration was my first Dlc for ark and all that i can say is that this brings me insane levels of nostalgia and happyness. Every theme of yours surpasses the one before, great work!
Part of the fun of this channel is seeing myself get better at what I do. The only downside is that I want to go back and redo all of my old music to be as good as the new stuff!
This is great, it's almost more mystical than the actual main Aberration theme. Edit: the entire series of music was incredible, purely an improvement on the base tracks! Great job!
@@AetherandChaos Perfection: Goal that changes, can chase, cannot catch. Nothing is ever perfect, you improved the base tracks, be proud of yourself :)
Tbh, Gareth makes him do these. Without Joker, there's no Batman Without Russia, there's no Anti-Doping Agency Without Gareth, there's no Aether & Chaos. These things need eachother!
@@cupricwheat what in the world.... I get the point, there's no need to add Russia and anti dropping agencies Lmao Also I believe aether can compose a masterpiece on its own without any base soundtrack.
Was looking for the ascension theme and when I clicked on this I was NOT disappointed, this is a masterpiece. I cannot BELIEVE how underrated this is??
Hey, I loved your The Island tribute and this one is even better! Thank you for putting in the work. Aberration is such a well made and beatiful DLC, and also, did you really just call "Bio-Luminiscent Aberrants" The Nameless National Anthem? Thats hilarious xD
Aberration? Yeah its okay Ok for real now, not only Aberration isy fav map it was my second map on ARK i love this game and the map with the Aberration theme being my second favorite song of all time and this... this made my day, my week, my year and i afraid to say this made my life better, thanks a lot for this Masterpiece.
Fantastic. Absolutely incredible. I also adore how you put Grave of the Lost in between Molten Element Aberrants while still keeping the massive buildup to the more dramatic section of it.
This is has to be your best work in my opinion, and oh boy when the second part of the biolum chamber started, i got chills because of good it was. Congratulations
I love the aberration ones! The long hours that went into the really show! Great job! I feel like the Aberration themes and Dragon Age Origins theme could mix really well if you ever wanted to give that a try ^_^
I just found your music yesterday and I am absolutely blown away from the quality and quantity of ARK music you have produced! In this specific video my favourite part is the bit from 7:56 to 8:20. Really love the rather upbeat ARK main theme variation there :)
I've been really excited for this tribute and oh boy was it worth the wait... Trurly amazing, you've outdone yourself, I've had chills all the way through. This remaster reminded me the whole playthrough on Aberration I shared with my friend and ascesion at the end was a cherry on top of all this... almost left me with tears
That's the point of these, the themes are arranged roughly the way you hear them in game. From the main theme all the way to the final boss and ascension!
Aberration is definitely my favorite map, the challenge and uniqueness of the map just adds to it. You my friend, have made the music even better than it already was
14:05 Oh my god, that's my favourite part on this already amazing tribute. The woman singing is most certainly Helena, like she's congratulating us for putting Rockwell to rest, as well as beating the final trial on the arks Onward it's just purely heroic and awe-inspiring
I am listening to all of these tributes for ark you have done so far and this one has made me feel all sorts of chills go up AND down my spine, all of it sounds super fucking amazing! Very calm, and slightly intense. The nostalgia of merely listening to all of these ark tributes is overwhelming for me, you know how to make such great bangers thats for sure, ones that make me wanna try and beat ark again EDIT: the Ascension song hits so hard i started to fucking tear up holy shit
Holy cow, this is beautiful!! You made epic music even MORE epic!!! Aberration is my fave ark map too, with some of my fave music of the entire game and the ascension is def my fave of them all! You've earned a new sub!!
This sounds totally epic and creative! I just love these "Fan-Variations" which manage to capture the style of the composer and mix it a little with their own style. Very well done! Keep doing this :D
It's like you knew I was expecting Rockwell's segment; that chilling fade-in is your quick way of saying "Mhm. It's happening." EDIT: on another note, can't wait for Corruption, and hoping you'll take many breaks to maintain your sanity in the process!
This is amazing!!! My friend and i love aberrations themes. I hope you have also done some of the other dlc’s if not thats fine. This one deserves the like and share.
Bro, if you only knew how good this tribute for doing some homework during listening to this masterpiece. (Especially after beating the map by your own) Thank you very much! I love your ARK tributes! Good luck! )
Aberration is just so good, i love it, i love cave environments so that helps. It was hard as nails, but i beat the map and rockwell and this encapsulates how it felt playing, take my like.
@@AetherandChaos il be alright if for when you get to king titan them that you can add the unused king titan death theme. Have you listened to that yet?
There's no experience in this game that quite tops the feeling of getting your first reaper impregnation. In the depths of hell with so much danger around, lose one piece of hazard gear and all that work is gone. My hands were shaking, I was so pumped.
Im so sad, i just remembered listening to this when i always played ark and am looking back on the old days when smalltribes were up a year before ascended
It's alright.
Yeah... cool i guess
It's all.... ready in my favorites list
@@Hex_Altruism wait you have one to
Specially in music class
Yeah it's aight
Is no one gonna talk about that transition from The Nameless National anthem into Molten Element Aberrants?! No!? Well you should be
You are so right. That was amazing
its incredible
@@nemesisprime1656 its crazy how people still watch this today
I though that too, I thought I was gonna write a comment about it.
This took me 80 hours to make and I feel like that deserves a like :)
It was well worth the wait survivor.....
This is amazing you did a really good job
@@Alterra_HQ hope I did your theme justice!
Sure
definitely got my like!

Besides that, Abb is a great inspiration for some fantasy/sci-fi environments for the stories I’m planning to write.
Your legit not wrong!
This is one of the best maps for ark
Imagine what it will look like in the animated series
@@MoldyMarshmallow Aberration is eye candy. Still the most visually pleasing map in my eyes.
Honestly, even after these recent DLCs, Aberration remains my favorite map in all of ARK, and the soundtrack is just fantastic.
This is going to be awesome.

Well the first dlc, Scorched Earth, doesn’t feel complete so Abberation was really the first “complete” dlc
Me to
Ark: Unfair. Aberration: Insanely unfair.
insanely cool aswell
@@joe-gx4zr yup, also I spent a buncha time saying OH FRICK I FORGOT MY BULBDOG when i went into the bioluminecence zone
Edit: And then gave up.
@@zaer_the_demon7009you would hate ASA Scorched earth

True lol
I thought aberration was extremely overrated until I started playing it. All I got to say is, Aberration is the only dlc that can be it’s own game. I enjoyed your music keep up the work always!
it definitely deserves all the love it gets
I feel this way between all of the paid DLC's (except Scorched.)
Each expansion feels like Wildcard slowly improving their skills.
@@conner4385 I love scorched earth the map is "boring" because its just desert but i fucking love the lore
@@Taikuriketsuppi The lore is defiantly one of the best.
But yeah, environmentally it's the worse.
Scorched was fantastic…and extremely outdated. If they recreated it today it would be incredibly good
Nicely done, I especially liked the spawning in music, though I'm only four minutes in :)
It’s unfortunate that you don’t have the check mark man
@@TheRockwell2009 not yet
Well this is the goat of ark maps
@@TheRockwell2009this aged well
I was always in love with the blue zone theme in ark, but the way you made it... chills man actual chills
❤️
The ascension is somehow even more thrilling and heroic than before, fantastic job
Probably cos there's more French horns and drums, mostly French horns tho. They make anything sound epic!
Yea, right at 14:47 is my favorite part of the ascension theme, and you have managed to make it even better
Fabulous. Also, this female vocal, like singing something mysterious, is simply mesmerizing. As if Helena herself sings
I loved the island tribute, this is gonna be great
I loved all his remix
I am... 22 seconds in. That is IT. I have already been won over. 11/10 I don't need to hear the rest.... I mean I'm still GONNA listen to the rest but god damn. Well done! I love all the stuff you put out, truly incredible!
Same I soon as I heard the theme I knew this was gonna be good.
Man I don’t know how someone made Garett Coker’s music sound even better
God you are the most talented person in this community hot damn
If it was an expansion: Zones (Fertile forest and rivers heavy fertile) light fertile (Light) Starts at 2:25, (Heavy starts at 2:40) Light heavy starts at 3:06 Heavy heavy starts at 3:46. biolum light starts at 4:15 biolum heavy starts at 5:03 element light starts at 5:33 element heavy starts at 6:30, grave of lost light is 6:43 grave of lost heavy is 7:14, halls of the reaper queen heavy at 8:22, hall of reaper queen light is 9:05 surface light is 10:04 surface heavy is 10:48, and there you have it.

Extinction is about to be straight HEAT. Since this was already INCINERATION
i m in love with the transition from bioluminescence to Molten it is one of my fav themes in ark but now even better
I feel tingly all over.
ASMR, or PTSD you decide.
Thank you, all jokes aside.
Probably one of my favorite maps tbh.
This is great, it's almost more mystical than the actual main Aberration theme.
Edit: the entire series of music was incredible, purely an improvement on the base tracks! Great job!
it's certainly not an improvement, I mean how are you supposed to improve perfection?
@@AetherandChaos Perfection: Goal that changes, can chase, cannot catch.
Nothing is ever perfect, you improved the base tracks, be proud of yourself :)
@@venomdragon7853 its like when you listen to a theme for the first time...
It has a different touch compared to the original. I like it. Offers nice variety.
Second favorite map in ark, after gen2, same with the soundtrack, you really did it justice!!! Best of all your remixes so far
This is just epic I can’t wait see extinction when it comes out in like 200 hours of work or something but this is amazing
hopefully not 200 hours oh god haha
Yea that would be pain
what is the name for extinction tho will it be related to corruption
@@voidnexus589 watch till the end of the video ;)
YESS MY GUESS WAS RIGHT now to wait for about 69 months until u finish but ill wait as long as its worth it
IVE WAITED YEARSSSS. well actually since scorched got it’s but this being my favourite DLC I wanted to see music for so badly. Thank you
Incredibly well done. Aberration is for sure the best dlc map right next to extinction and Gen2
This was great bro.
The Surface and the ascension gave me major chills.
WORTH THE 80 HOURS
Abberaion is honestly my favourite DLC, the story and difficulty on that map are a completely different level and I adore it!
Oh my God, I had so many goosebumps by the end, why are you so underrated? Gareth needs to see this!!
I'm sure Gareth has better things to do haha
Tbh, Gareth makes him do these.
Without Joker, there's no Batman
Without Russia, there's no Anti-Doping Agency
Without Gareth, there's no Aether & Chaos.
These things need eachother!
@@cupricwheat there would absolutely be an anti doping agency without Russia lmao, they may be the best at it but every country does doping haha
@@cupricwheat what in the world.... I get the point, there's no need to add Russia and anti dropping agencies Lmao
Also I believe aether can compose a masterpiece on its own without any base soundtrack.
Was looking for the ascension theme and when I clicked on this I was NOT disappointed, this is a masterpiece. I cannot BELIEVE how underrated this is??
The molten element region is really good with the intensified choir making it feel more ungodly and just aberrant
Hey, I loved your The Island tribute and this one is even better! Thank you for putting in the work. Aberration is such a well made and beatiful DLC, and also, did you really just call "Bio-Luminiscent Aberrants" The Nameless National Anthem? Thats hilarious xD
Is it not? Haha
Thanks for making the Element region theme Great again!!!
You're welcome I guess haha
@@AetherandChaos ooh can you remix this? ruclips.net/video/aiTY6LouszY/видео.html
I am not going to lie. I watched this 4 times in a row now. This music is heaven for the ears, period.
I'm absolutely infatuated with aberration. It's my favorite map on any game I've played. This pleases me more than any remix I've heard.
Aberration? Yeah its okay
Ok for real now, not only Aberration isy fav map it was my second map on ARK i love this game and the map with the Aberration theme being my second favorite song of all time and this... this made my day, my week, my year and i afraid to say this made my life better, thanks a lot for this Masterpiece.

These soundtracks are what I listen to whilst making ARK Mod Maps, Thank You FOR MAKING THESE!!!!
Fantastic. Absolutely incredible. I also adore how you put Grave of the Lost in between Molten Element Aberrants while still keeping the massive buildup to the more dramatic section of it.
This is has to be your best work in my opinion, and oh boy when the second part of the biolum chamber started, i got chills because of good it was. Congratulations
extinction and genesis are gonna be so fucking badass, i love your work aether! 110% on this one.
I love the aberration ones! The long hours that went into the really show! Great job! I feel like the Aberration themes and Dragon Age Origins theme could mix really well if you ever wanted to give that a try ^_^
Dragon age is on the to do list for sure, Inon Zur is one of my favourite composers and so is Trevor Morris
Absolute masterpiece, just like the map

FOR REAL.
das what im sayin
The wait was worth it such a beautiful soundtrack for a awesome dlc.
You've done it again 👏
That Aberratant ascension gives me chills every time
Love the synths on the Spawn In track!
It was fun flexing my synthesis muscles again!
4:15 is my favorite part and I love how you remixed that!
I literally got chills multiple times I'm not kidding. thank you for making this I think you made my day
9:11 Best Creshendo Breakdown ever ! Love it !
You kidding your a legend making legendary music you are no less then that
Best map of the game
FACTS
Y E S🗿

Aberration is my fave ark map too, with some of my fave music of the entire game and the ascension is def my fave of them all! You've earned a new sub!!
When ark gets remastered this should be the aberration theme no questions asked. Fantastic job.
Your music has evolved over the years, but just now it has ACENDED! Great work mate!
I LOVED the evolution songs, and this, this is just absolutely beautiful
Every time I read "absolutely beautiful" I hear Helena's voice in my head haha
This goes hard wtffffff. Hands down ur best work so far imo
had to do aberration the justice it deserves! I learned so much doing this one I can't wait to apply it to more music
This sounds totally epic and creative! I just love these "Fan-Variations" which manage to capture the style of the composer and mix it a little with their own style. Very well done! Keep doing this :D

7:32 is just amazing
Dang, this is good.
My absolute favorite map, on my favorite dinosaur game, gets the most epic remix. I swear vocals make everything better.
able to isolate the "The Nameless National Anthem" part? the best part
Please do a full version of the surface theme. It's the best track from Aberration
There's no experience in this game that quite tops the feeling of getting your first reaper impregnation. In the depths of hell with so much danger around, lose one piece of hazard gear and all that work is gone. My hands were shaking, I was so pumped.
This sounds really beautifull 🙃
❤❤❤
the bridge into Fertile -heavy hits harrd
Love it, itd be awesome to be able to listen to the tracks seperately though.
MY GOD BRO IT'S AMAZING
perfection in its true form
Im so sad, i just remembered listening to this when i always played ark and am looking back on the old days when smalltribes were up a year before ascended
