- A not-so-short song made in FL Studio 21 using just a piano, guitar, and some strings!
i think this might be the most key changes I've tried to use in a single song... :0

I genuinely can't believe no one has asked you to make a video game OST yet 😭 just imagining songs like this being used in an RPG like Undertale or Sea of Stars gives me chills. I guarantee that someday someone is gonna reach out to you for it, and if no one else does then I will!!!
One day 😭
honestly i have thought about that for a long time
That's what I'm saying! Well, we'll be here when he does!
im pretty sure a FUCKTON of people have told him he could and should be in a game OST.
@@knopfir yes that includes me as I am hoping to be a game developer in the future. I meant I'm surprised no active game devs have asked him already, since his music is definitely a high enough quality to make something like that
What ive noticed with azali and the piano is that it always sounds like each note is a verse in a poem while the other instruments are the moments ❤
that sounds like a good way of phrasing it !!!
pianos my favorite instrument and the one I'm most comfortable with irl, and so I normally find that my compositions become pretty piano centric, even if there isn't a piano in the composition haha
@@AZALI00013 that makes a lot of sense. Piano is one of the most versatile instruments sound-wise, mainly due to a ridiculously wide range of notes. The piano is also pretty easy to learn-although I couldn't get my hands to play any instrument, even if I tried, which is fine, I write anyways, so not much impact there.
If I had to choose myself, my favourite is easily split evenly between the piano and viola/violin, since they each hold a wide range and gracefully play every time, matching well in any instrumental group or orchestra-which is similar to one of my favourite genres of music (basically whatever Hollow Knight's OST falls into), alongside techno and its subsects. You've managed to be one of the very few who can recreate that sort of music in a variety of ways-even making the seldom seen mixture of both genres that works well (like in your CHAOS CONTROL video, which felt like an electrostep rendition of Steven Universe music, which created a similar idea, but more techno than electrostep, like what you make in the techno subsects.
Super condensed ver: I agree plus ramble about opinions (all good)
@@AZALI00013 fav instr not meowsynth? :sad:
on a tuesday?!
also azali casually having a bit of a crisis in the subtitles lol
love the feeling of this, like 2 main characters staring into the landscape as they part ways, but like not depressingly, more like they have grown so much and helped each other find themselves. and that their real adventure is going to start now
this one feels like standing by a tree looking out at a field of waving grass OR on a hill top looking out at the beautiful scenery, remembering times that used to be (ending with a slight smile as you remember those beautiful moments) ...beautiful as always, Azali
AZALI NEW SONG 💥‼️🔥 I CAN VIBE WHILE DOING COLLEGE WORK LETS GO
VOICES FROM THE TRUE WORLD VI IS HERE??????!?!?!????
NO WAYYYYYYYY LETS GOOOOOOOOOOO
(ITS BEEN WAY TOO LONG SINCE IVE WAITED TO WORK ON IT 😭😭😭)
@@AZALI00013 YEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
"It is the year 2103. The planet is a post-apocalyptic mess; billions have already been killed off.
AZALI is creating the first song in 'Voices From the True World DCXC'."
WE ARE SO BACK
yet another sad song
sounds calming like rain
and light winds
Elysiuma is a term that is often associated with the concept of Elysium, which is a place in Greek mythology where the souls of the heroic and virtuous go after death. It is considered a paradise or a blissful afterlife for those who lived a good and honorable life.
Basically from this specific line:
- "I've won, but at what cost..."
Eternal Echoes of Bliss
this just screams menu theme or even ending credits theme for a really memorable and touching game
Fun fact: The word "elysium" has multiple definitions but the most simple is paradise. I think echoes of paradise matches this song very well
r/batmanarkham invading or something?
@@RapidWildFire what
@RapidWildFire please elaborate. I just got a reply on Instagram about r/batmanarkham, and I'm so confused.
Its calming.. Soft yet sad..
Like the flower in the lush green garden.. Yet moments later.. To be flooded with heavy rain.
While the frogs the croaks and jumps around the garden, while the heavy rain still goes on.
..
Just to say, whatever life brings to you.. Just remember to be happy.. Even for a single second..
Since.. Life is too short.. For a tear to be shed.

1:41 is so satisfying, i keep coming back to listen to this piece. amazing job
Me when I enter the new world of the endless plains and hills, grass long like a women’s hair, trees whimsically dancing, clouds walking on rainbows, and most importantly, the mystery of this new land.
This is truely one of my favorite songs made by you! I love the different key changes, aswell as the general atmosphere of the song.
Amazing work, as always.
God, the guitar kicking in hit me like a brick in the Best Way, it’s really cool to (see? hear?) experience the conventions of your music from earlier, only to have you suddenly go “haha! New instrument!” And completely turn the vibe on its head. The fact that it seems to draw from the quieter moments of the previous Echoes of the True World but expand on them and make them more complex is just AAAAHHHHH it’s so good!
Jesus Christ this is like movie ambience quality T0T. I’m so excited to see all the things you create becus dam… this is beautiful
every time you talk about your evolution in music, the new techniques you learn, the new instruments you get and the new genres you try; i find it very interesting to read and think about. That line about you finding weird your old music and possibly your old-self finding strange the structure of your current songs is so right, we always change our opinions and likes with the time, and that explains why every artist (in general, but it also applies to music) doesnt like their old works by themselves but dont hate the existence of them, it's just not that they really got a lot better with the past of years, but it also shows how their preferences changed to finally arrive their current and better selfs. (I hope this comment is understandable)
This sounds absolutly amazing! it makes me think of someone at their lowest point deciding to work hard to improve, but not to immidiate success, they fight their way up through tooth and nail but they are only able to stay at the same point, not improving but not going lower as well. Untill finally they are able to meet someone who is willing to help them, they are never able to get out of their lowest point on their own, but together with help from others they can finally look back at the end and see where they came from with a fond sense of nostalgia and happiness over seeing how far they've truly come.
Sounds like the final safe room before the final boss. Serenity and sorrow.
youre literally composing final fantasy and zelda level video game ost music. literally adding this to my verdant moon playlist. you sre so talented
I've noticed that a very important element to me about music is how complex it is. If there's a lot of things going on that feel random, it can be too much, but if not enough changes, it gets boring. But, lots of things that feel random actually aren't random, and as you learn to perceive the patterns underlying the randomness, things will feel less complex. This happens with everything, not just music! I think it does feel a bit different with music though, because we don't consciously look for patterns in music, and the feeling of too much or too little happening is amplified somehow.
Btw, a more precise definition of what I mean by complexity here is "Shannon entropy".
Beautiful as always. You did an excellent job of really drawing out the emotion of this one with the tempo and key changes.
Chaotic yet calm and evocative...I like the contrast. Good song.
You're so good at building atmosphere, and all your songs sound like they're big enough to fit inside, which is my favorite style of production
"Being forced to see the world through another lens" is pretty much my experience with music theory while composing
Although, as you said, older music that you made feels different, as a sense of chord progression development and many other things, they feel even more special and more interesting to see on another perspective
I commonly hear my music to undestand wth i was doing and what i want to do from now on >:)
I do the exact same, yeah !!
it's kind of weird listening to past songs, because although some things seem naive and boring because I knew less, some decisions are also really cool, since I never would have made them now :0
it's strange just how much our views and preferences change over the journey haha
it really makes you wonder how a future you will see your work in the present
I need to consider my past self all the time because while making music I have to replay the tune in my head repeatedly which makes it not sound as good as time goes on, but if I didn't make the song and heard it for the first time then I would've loved it
Makes me think of a quaint little medieval-style town at night time, maybe from the perspective of a loving guardian watching over it and reminiscing on days when they didn't have to guard because the surrounding woods weren't overrun by monsters and part of the town wasn't already in ruin from a prior attack... idk I'm just spitballing ideas, it's really fun to try and make stories based off of these!
No but like it's crazy how once a new technique finally sits in your brain right it just gets folded into your musical language! Awesome work as usual ♥
I almost finished the video without turning on subtitles :( I love the little talks you do in there
(Also says something about the beauty of this piece, I think you did an amazing job with this one!)
this is what plays when i find out about my friends hidden dark lore
This is actually so pretty I WANNA CRY THANK YOU AZALIIII
Listening to any of your songs is always with a surprise to me, I never really expect songs to be chill with such names, so epic and silly at the same time and this one just gave me powerful "feel good" shivers. I really love all of your works :D
You just can't stop making master pieces, can you?
What i love about your music the most is that it reminds us that music too has a voice. So many developers (especially AAA) have forgotten that music can be as powerful, moving and meaningful as any amount of dialogue. Theres a reason "simple" or "rudimentary" tracks like those of early sonic or mario games are so universally recognizable. Now we have talented grand orchestras for the sake of it being and sounding grand rather than playing a part in the story itself. Background noise, filler, sidelined. All of your tracks sound like dialogue, tell many stories, to where even if there was nary a word said in the entire game you'd know what's being felt/said. Much like silent hill, parasite eve or tunic. I really hope you get the chance to show off your skills and inspire many to remember just how powerful sound and music can be in any art form.
I hope one day I can hear a live orchestra playing one of your songs like this! This is really amazing! I can totally imagine going to a movie theater and hearing this as part of the OST to a ghibli movie.
An island in space. Looking at the night sky. Sitting on the edge. And seeing them in their eyes..
azali i can HEAR how your music has improved over time and its so so amazing
aww thats a really nice way of putting it actually :)
maybe i wont worry so much in that case hahaha
Bro, that guitar sounded so cool. So happy to see ya getting better at using it! ❤
You'd know you have completed yourself if you're able to get people to begin imagining the song through each chord, each note, each motif, and so much more. This is a beautiful mix between the strings and the piano.
Holy shit when the guitar came in literally chills
Gorgeous piece man flipping amazing
And awesome volume lines once again mmh immaculate
the key changes are really nice and smooth and yeah sometimes i felt "woah wasnt expecting that!" type of thing but it all really felt beautiful
and i think that in the end music is about making what you want (well it depends but anyway)
beauty, even if it's subjective, stays beauty, and your music is always really good
keep making bangers ;))
The captions pose a pretty interesting question.
I've always wondered something along those lines as well, though moreso on a general level than focused entirely on just art and music. It's just interesting to see the ways you grow and change as time goes on.
Very neat song, love it.
all of your music gives off such indie game vibes and at this point I am just WAITING for the day that you get to write the music for some awesome video game
Mysterious ancient ruins by the seaside ahh beat
(i fucking love this)
i feel like this'd go on either a title screen, a backstory, a gambl screen, man you name it
this one sounds beautiful. Also we got socrates Azali again! Amazing
socrates azali 😭😭😭
Bro, never give up on this amazing talent that you have for creating music! The stuff is still blowing me away!
Another poem for your thoughts:
The wings of wind
Leaves free, unpinned
Liberty of thought, of mind
Wandering to wonder. What to find?
Change to change
Extend the range
Of possibility
Imagine the key
Sunrise to fall of night
History hidden in hindsight
Begin again, begin anew
For all begins with you
[I pretty like the shifting moods of this piece. Key changes are difficult, but I find transitions to similar moods to be the easiest for it. Idk what you know (I’m sure you know plenty more than me honestly with how good you are), but I’m sure the major minor key changes could be interesting as well.
Also, your has been inspirational for me trying a new DAW that has tempo changes, which let me make some more “organic” music, which is what I really like about your music.
I hope you do well with music like this, you’ve improved greatly and I’m sure can figure it out. (I know there’s a lot of patterns with music so maybe looking for one can help).]
I am in love with your music (those chord progressions and notes are perfection)
imagine listening to this when the world is ending, i get those feelings, amazing song.
Oh man! This one feels so heavy but it maintains the intimacy somehow :> As usual, amazing work bud
Oh ma gosh, your using a guitar! Thank you!!!!! I love it when guitar is used, as its actually decently rare, not to mention I've asked in the past for guitar, so thank you!!!!!!!
This sound really beautiful, like a sad but impornant memory
Amazing work Azali :D❤
the captions were covering the bottom part of the video so the guitar was actually so unexpected for me adflkja. but it sounded pretty cool tbh....
You're songs always make my day better ❤
tbh this is the most emotional piece of art i've ever felt tho
this was a really really REALLY good
Your music helps me to keep on living, thank you.
Your piano parts are honestly so relaxing. And oml when the guitar runs came in I ascended.
Btw thanks for the Ample Guitar plugin! I used it in my final composition for my composing class and the strumming section is fun to use.
thank you so much !!
I'm glad you feel so haha
AND ABSOLUTELY
I love ample guitar products so much....
This song reminds me of the beginning scene in BOTW when Link looks at the landscape after leaving the Shrine of Ressurection
This is my favorite yet. Thanks Azali!
such a beautiful piece, and you're quite the deep thinker too
Azali went crazy with the guitar 😭
DETECTIVE ARRIVING AT THE PIANO
HUH
another azali upload, another great piece.
that was so good, especially when the guitar came in
Indescribable. The composition seems calm but yet has a sense of density, as if there is weight on this world that had been created.
Almost like something eternal is near.
1:18 Dat guitar slide was smoother than my brain bro 👍
bro ive been waitin for so long to hear bangers like this :)
Could’ve been a Child of Light OST 🔥💎
yesssss
i always watch your videos as soon as i wake up, and this song perfectly fits the fact that my phone is about to die, i can’t find a charger, and i’m going to school in 5 minutes. especially 1:08 when it really set in that i was screwed lol
also absolutely beautiful song i love it so much
The guitar in this one sounds incredible, if I didn't see the notes I would think it was a real player!
DO YOU REALLY MEAN THAT LSP ;-; ;-; ;-;
@@AZALI00013 Yes! I have tried to use virtual guitars before, but this is so much better
im honored you feel so in that case !!!
i still want to try making it even more realistic however >:)
Sounds really chill, i love :3
I'm really glad you enjoyed it !! :)
I've searched the meaning of "elysiuma" and the images matches so well this music
Gordom Ramsay learns from everytime Azali cooks🗣️🔥🔥
This is such a pretty song OH MY GODDDD IT'S SO GOOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!
Beautiful beyond words
Hauntingly beautiful.
This is gorgeous. very impactful yet subtle+effective key changes too. I love using symmetrical chords for changes. like how every diminished chord is also 4 other diminished chords, just in different inversions, which have their own paths open harmonically for changes/resolutions (Cdim is Ebdim is Gbdim is Adim, all of which can go different places). And time-signature changes I find easier with slower and sustainful things like this, as you can hang onto notes/rests longer and have it breathe more without it coming apart and losing cohesion.
fwiw I love these longer "full song" compositions the best. probably not as algorithmically-friendly for youtube views/ads as a creator vs the snack-size things people usually do, which are more conducive to higher-output-volume content that these platforms usually incentivize/demand for "engagement thru fast food attention-binges." But I love the thoughfulness and intent behind more full compositions. It's felt, I think.
the mixing has come so far, i love that its pushing the limiter at times and sounding so full in my ears
I'm honored to hear it vergence !!
its always nice to hear from you :)
I listen to your music while cramming for finals it really helps
im glad to hear it helps :)
good luck on the finals as well !!!
Let's gooooooo I got a 93 on my Spanish final
It feels like an ocean of feeling, is so 😭😭😭
Hmmm
I like it, and the pitch changes are really cool! I think with music it's easy to compose it in real time, but it's important also to listen back to it multiple times to make sure it's not too jarring. But the most important thing to me is just doing what sounds cool and figuring it out from there. It's easier to learn things if you're just messing around!
This has so much project moon vibes and I am HERE for it
This song was really chill at first, and then we got hit with the guitar and wow! It was such an unexpected moment, but I actually love it so much :O
It's always great seeing you experiment more!
im scared of you, how tf is this so good :o
also holy shi long azali song real
It doesn't just sound like an ending theme.
It sounds like the end.
Im glad to see longer songs from you!!!
Have a nice day!!
I hope you have a nice day as well floppa !!
@@AZALI00013thank you! i have a lot of exams now, but i feel i'll have a really amazing holidays!! :)
I DO AS WELL DONT WORRY
well get through this together floppa
I like it its very nice! It makes me want to lay in grass, but if i did ants would eat me lol
I really like this, it feels kinda... contemplative??? Like it's the theme song of me trying to calmly describe something to someone, while under the surface my brain has six completely unrelated things it wants me to mention immediately
I think I'd also have a lot of trouble hearing certain key changes without it being weird but I can keep up with tempo/meter changes pretty well (I listen to Dream Theater and they do it smoothly all the time, AWESOME band)
this is beautiful azali. thank you
thank you for listening :)
I gotta say that what you were saying speaks to me too. I sometimes have those same thoughts. Though I would definitely say it is a positive change. Life is a journey & our music can sometimes express our journey without us even realizing at first.
I feel what you’re saying with noticing old songs and your taste changing over time. As a guitarist, my lens has changed from just enjoying riffs to trying to figure them out and appreciating all the nuances.
Also, I’ve always been curious if you play the songs irl or just lay them out one-by-one in MIDI.
I agree with this !!
also, I record on a keyboard !!
I'm not skilled enough to work with just a mouse just yet 😭😭😭
Something about this reminds me of Tottomori’s “dream merchant” album
babe wake up AZALI just posted
This... is wonderful.
ITS SO PRETTY AND FOR WHAAATTTTT
despite the fact that I listened to all the tracks of AZAZALI, every time, as if for the first time, I am amazed at your skill in playing the piano
(if the text is hard to read, don’t beat me, I have to use Google translator 😭😭😭)
Beautiful song!
To answer your last little tangent, I personally don't concern myself too much with my past selves.
However, I do have a piece of writing that I lined out when I was 14, and I refuse to change any plot points or story arcs, because that is how I viewed the world when I was 14.
It's flawed, it's tragic, and the perfect ending is the main hero dying a couple years after burying their friends.
Because that was what I viewed to be the ideal at the time.
To have friends, and if I didn't, I'd rather have been dead.
I had no friends, but I thought I did.
NOT THE POINT!
The point is that your past does not define you, and neither can it judge you more than you let it.
There is no permanent state of self, and life comes with ups and downs, even in growth.
And personally I find picking one key to be restricting anyway
I... know I am fully corrupted. Nothing felt weird in that song, but that's coming from someone who enjoys composing in 21/4 and other random stuff.
I LOVE how studying theory gives you a knew way to listen to music. Alright some pieces become lame, but it's SO MUCH MORE exciting when something makes you go "w h a t happened???".
And then your compositions also become weirder and weirder and my friends straight up say sounds like an LSD trip lol... But hey I think I prefer being corrupt than not being corrupt to be fair. The proof being, NOTHING in that song sounded weird, and I especially loved that acoustic guitar use as lead. I hope you'll embrace complexity for the sake of it!

well spoken 😔🙏
@@AZALI00013 thank you :3
The piano is actually really good. You can almost see the pianist doing the different movements because of how realistic the automation is. If there’s one thing azali isn’t it’s monotonous
