lightsaber it's not charged at the moment but it has sounds and lights and it it actually attached to a dual ready blade which is tucked somewhere in my in my closet yeah uh halfway through the Liber coffee as soon as I finish the coffee we're going to start listening to the music starting from a cup of Liberty there's 38 songs in the playlist that I found although some of them are not official so I'm not going to be checking out but this is the playlist that we're following that this is the playlist I am following just in case uh yeah I might not be able to go through all of it because you know I only try to stream for two hours that's all I can take two hours plus kind of like that uh but yeah the OSD isn't yeah I I I noticed that it's not yet on Spotify it seems like whoever is managing the music rights is still kind of new hell divers had a Max of 6,000 players ah I see Grim struck thank you so much for the Super Chat I appreciate that thank you so much and it says here this is your 10th time to do a super chat thank you so much you're very supportive thank you so much the main theme is just flat out epic and catchy at the same time perfect I'm glad hell divers 2 is a huge success hello from Russia the illuminate tracks go hard all right let me check if everything's in order oh there's some YouTube short some memes we're going to skip some of that yeah all right chat are you ready uh if you are ready I want you to spam cup of coffee or the the the mug Emoji we're just going to pretend it's liberty Luke zukaro main intro of the game you mean music or cinematic I really don't like reacting to cinematics and this is I'm going to tell you why because it loses the focus on music I analyze music I don't analyze animation or cinematics that is not my expertise I'm a musician I'm a music producer I'm a composer not an animator not a film director and I just want to focus on the stuff that I like to analyze which is music you put gameplay in there you put cinematics animation FMV immediately distracted so I know a lot of you are also like requesting me to react to meet the team the animation animated shorts from Team Fortress 2 and I've watched some of them offline but I'm not going to be making content out of it it's not music that's not really what I'm passionate about it doesn't interest me it doesn't excite me and nowadays you know life is short if it if something does not excite you why spend time on it since when have I stream on YouTube six years on and off all right chat please spam all the mug emojis I like that yeah this is going to be our default this is going to be our default um spam for today spam the spam the cups that's our Liberty you can even add some pastries if you want hey Britney Knuckles glad to see you here all right chat let's do this oh new camera angle um lots to adjust but anyway let's go I'm so excited let me just volume check this okay all right this is a cup of Liberty hellish wyvern thank you so much thank you so much for the Super Chat sending this in hopes of a Sonic Unleashed oh okay chat there's been some misunderstanding here I know maybe it's an innocent misunderstanding I don't do reviews I only do music analysis and reactions thank you for the support hellish wyvern but I don't do reviews reviews imply that I make I give a score or like a rating to the songs I don't do that I don't feel I'm qualified to do that I just like to vibe to the music and listen together with you but I don't like to give scores because music is Art and art is objective who am I to impose a like tyrannical rating system I'm just some dude on the internet anyway enough talk let's play a cup of Liberty this is the first song from this playlist hell diverse 2 OST let's [Music] go [Music] W immediately I can sense the heightened like feeling of democracy of militarism of a warlike Anthem you know there's a reason why most militaries in the world employ a brass band or a marching band there is just something so Regal so Marshal about the sound of brass instruments or horns playing in unison especially in a very symmetrical rhythmic way this screams [Music] military [Music] [Music] quiet part I like it now this feels like a space Western because of that Reverb mix [Music] beautiful you can hear those those uh minimal synthesizers and then coupled with that Reverb heavy violin solo it feels like you can imagine the vast emptiness of space and the tiny dots of the synthesizers I I I feel like they're the they represent the stars in the distance and the violin it just conveys the emptiness of space but then the brasses they come back they come back and you slowly hear them the brasses are the grounding element of the music [Music] [Music] this sounds so heightened in a hopeful almost very nationalistic way very un theic it makes you feel proud of whatever you're fighting for even if you don't know what it is there's this combination of the overly saturated major chords all those happy sounding chords in tandem it makes it feel so exaggerating [Music] positive [Music] first off the light Motif is very simple and so easy to insert on any kind of mood see I only listen to it once and I can already recite the melody back it's very catchy it is indeed very catchy and but it's also a simple micro Melody that's very easy to fit in other arrangements so if you needed like a slow version like that ending or maybe an angry version or happy version or I don't know a comedic version it's very easy to insert that micro Melody and that's how the most iconic film scores like Star Wars Indiana Jones any John Williams movie score that's how [Music] he that's how he comp uh that's how he conceptualizes the main themes for these soundtracks he comes about John Williams or any effective film composer would come up with this micro Melody called a light Motif and it is intentionally made to be kind of neutral harmonically speaking so it's easier to insert it on other arrangements or other parts of the film score or the video game score where you want to remind The Listener oh yeah this is the main theme yet something amazing is going to happen but yes those first four brass notes are an eim exactly yeah pH that was a good one by the way chat we are recording this this is being filmed uh I'm filming this offline so streams uh mu music reaction streams such as this will be edited down later on at a later date into proper edited videos but most of the time I usually just feel myself listening to the music either on Twitch on a private Channel or just me offline but lately like the past 3 weeks I decided why not let you in on the action so here we are hydrate first hell diverse I feel like there's proper titles for these songs but since there's no official osc release yet whoever uploaded this Mutu decided to just give generic titles oh this is the hell diverse server Q music but that's fine we can we can figure out the titles later the important thing is the music is here let's go wow this immediately gets the blood [Music] pumping [Music] oh my God this is so beautiful if you take out those rhythmic syn uh those Rhythm sections the synthesize the synth base the electronic drums and you just let the brasses and the violins do their sonorous Melodies it will sound like a coral like a choir pce like a choir piece a very solemn choir piece that can be used for a a more chill setting or a more what is it solemn setting [Music] [Music] interesting dissonance [Music] your team is ready let's read your team is ready get ready to deploy [Music] okay there's one thing I can definitely oh sorry one thing I can definitely say about that that is a sign of a very passionate audio team either a very passionate composer or a very passionate music team because server CU music is usually something that is not going to be heard in its entirety simply because maybe you just press Start immediately maybe your team is immediately ready so you just enter the game cutting off the music they didn't have to go this passionate by making it a fullon complicated piece with lots of beautiful counterpoints they didn't need to do that but they clearly have a lot of Musical musical thoughts and musical ideas to share so wow let's see the next one [Music] is let me just let me just uh hair maintenance so it will look good on camera and hydrate this next one is tutorial obstacle course music alternate version of reinforc ready theme interesting the comb is out always always all [Music] right one moment I hear a very noisy car speeding as if it's as as if the highway is the NASCAR track still I'm very lucky to to to be in a relatively quiet town but sometimes there's just like one naughty driver all [Music] right beautiful Reverb or beautiful [Music] delay [Music] that was giving me a little bit of a Star Trek opening theme [Music] vibe oh wow this is a nice call back it's a rhythmic Trope I'm I've been hearing in the the the few songs we listen to the string rhythmic session uh the string the string section doing a rhythmic yeah beautiful call back very simple but you can IM you can immediately feel that oh yeah this is a characteristic of the [Music] [Music] soundtrack damn so [Music] heroic like you know I know it's a different franchise but in my head immediately I can just imagine Thor Landing in a fury of thunder and lightning [Music] [Music] and which climactic part of the game does this music play in the tutorial mission that is pretty much worthy of being a main theme for a a movie franchise maybe a superhero film or a military or like a militaristic film like I don't know something like Saving Private Ryan kind of that Vibe but man if this is just a tutorial music what more epicness will I be what more epicness will I be hearing next all right all right here's some more oh what is this oh another oh this is a short one this is a hell diver tutorial fight music another tutorial theme all [Music] right [Music] [Music] I like it short and sweet it does seem like a reprise of the previous tutorial theme that I just listened to but man I am loving this sound palette that the devs chose I'm calling it a brass wall of Harmony and Rhythm and you know they really had they really show they really have and what's this they they really I'm losing the I'm losing the term it's tip of my tongue they really went C crazy with this mixture of synth and Brass synth and Brass like a thick thick harmonic wall of the loudest most bright sonorous brass instruments available in this universe and spice it up with synth rhythm electr drums just a unique combination definitely it sounds traditionally heroic in a traditional orchestral John williamses way but it also sounds very modern because of the presence of all these electronic sounds it's oh my God it's modernized nationalism that that feeling of a futuristic Freedom there we go Galactic War map music a [Music] I like this chill Ambient sound this is like the Calm before the storm melodic development [Music] [Music] [Music] wow [Music] [Music] [Music] is that like a reference to the map music in Mass [Music] Effect oh [Music] I love that yeah it definitely feels like the map music from Mass Effect Uncharted worlds I believe is a title which I have a a CLE I have an a capella cover of it in my channel one of my older videos but yeah ambient music like this mixed well with the right amount of Reverb And Delay always makes you feel like this vast Universe waiting to be explored this is galactic warmup music B lots of Galactic wmap music by the way chat um I I decided that stream reactions will be more casual like this we're going to listen to the entirety of the song but in the edited videos especially when copyright comes as an issue I will definitely trim down some of the songs or maybe cut out some of the songs just to make it more entertaining to watch because some songs can get long and dragging it's good for a live stream but not not might not be good for an edited video so anyway Galactic warm-up music B let's check this out definitely sounds like a sister song to the previous one [Music] [Music] this style of house electronic music reminds me of some of the medical procedural shows like House MD when he's figured out the solution to his problem to the medical problem this kind of music plays in the background oh yeah it's very cerebral it makes you feel [Music] smart [Music] he [Music] and this is galactic warm up music C that's a lot of Galactic warm up music let's carry [Music] on a bit more jumpy but still kind of in the same Vibe and tempo as the previous ones [Music] I call that a harmonic jump [Music] scare the melodic brass is back now we're getting [Music] serious [Music] [Music] damn those brasses where those brasses whether they're custom recorded for the tracks or their fancy sample packs or sample libraries they're recorded so well you can hear the brightness of the metal the metal what is it the metallic quality of the brass sound you can hear it you can hear the brightness and the tininess I I don't know what the exact term but but you can hear it you can feel it you can even feel like the metal vibrating on the [Music] microphone [Music] [Music] wow that escalated quickly I like that the progression between Galactic music Galactic map music a b and c there's definitely a story progression happening in it with uh with the heightened quality in the galactic map music C which which is I think is like a progression of the intensity whether you're probably venturing into a more dangerous territory of the Galaxy or maybe you are about to face an intense a more intense battle than the previous ones they're definitely uh making you feel it this is all the the freedom you're going to need for this next mission all right hair maintenance again I couldn't see the other side the far side of my hair but yeah by the way if you're wondering why is he not wearing headphones I am wearing headphones but it is the more hidden kind called an inear monitors but it sounds like a full professional headphone and professional musicians use this for live shows I use this for streaming and live shows as well all right drop and point strategem Loadout selection music damn now we're getting [Music] serious I really love this this com combination of traditional brass and electronic rhythms it's just so it's just so uncommon for you to hear this instrumental combination nowadays and I'm just enjoying it it definitely helps give the game the entire soundtrack of the game its own character the music itself the brasses are a character in itself [Music] [Music] [Music] that is so beautiful you're here preparing for battle you're here preparing for battle what will probably be one of the most intense skirmishes you've ever had but here's this beautiful brass Melody giving you a sense of hope some emotional [Music] resonance [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] oh my God this is genius I just realized this that the composer or the producer they chose the type of synthesizer that when you play it softly it sounds smooth but when you play it harshly it also sounds it also starts to become it also starts to it starts to sound harsh or like growly like a growly voice like a blue singer's voice which is the same exact characteristic that brass instruments have you can play a trumpet in a very nice sonorous smooth Melody but if you play it louder it will start to sound harsh like in a growly characteristic so the fact that they chose to combine that kind of synth sound with a brass sound means they know what they're doing they chose the instruments with the same characteristic whether it's soft or loud oh it's six minutes long why not let's listen to the whole thing it will be edited it will be edited down in the the you video [Music] [Music] [Music] anyway [Music] for [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] there there are some parts where you don't know if what you're hearing is an organic instrument or a synthetic instrument and the fact that they give you this blurred feeling it's it's like a representation of you know organic or organic creatures meets [Music] technology [Music] [Music] okay wow I can imagine people enjoying this listening to it on a loop it's exciting but the fact that I think there's a proper ending I think in the game whenever you you end the sequence an automated event will play the ending of the music that's how music implementation works nowadays there's like stems to the music and it will keep on looping and before you they just stop the music cut cut it right in the middle without without War or sometimes they would fade it out but the more sophisticated audio teams they would actually let you hear an official ending to the music that is only triggered by a g gameplay event or a press of a button and those are the non lazy game devs I can see why there's a lot of Praise being given to Hell divers too okay we're reaching song number eight and some of you are I I believe are waiting for the extraction music I don't think I'll be able to listen to All 38 songs on the playlist I I just wanted to check out all of them I I mean some of them maybe 10 10 to 15 songs but What's the title of that extraction song is it the one that's called extraction the because I can skip to that and this song called super Earth Anthem also looks interesting sounds interesting all right the next song is 41 seconds long let's check this let's check that out real quick [Music] [Laughter] and what is this is this a meme oh okay looks like it has some in-game thing going on let let me just quickly check it out it's only 41 seconds long what the hell what the hell [Music] diver [Music] [Music] [Music] oh chip tune I like it kind of reminds me of the feeling I first kind of reminds me of the feeling I first had when I was when I played The Witcher arcade game within the cyberp punk 2077 world where they had a chip tune arrangement of the care Moran theme from The Witcher 3 soundtrack which is like oh wow this is cool but it's just like a endless Runner you're playing as roach I believe but yeah that was super cool all right let me check uh extraction is so good strategy extend okay should I also check out on stream the super Earth Anthem you know what I'll just check it out because just the title alone already interests me all right let's skip ahead let's skip ahead to extraction theme since I think a lot of you want want that one let's do that all right wait yeah the main thing was the first one we listened to all right extraction theme illuminate music there's four of it all right let's go extraction Theme From Hell diverse [Music] 2 [Music] [Music] [Music] definitely gives that thriller movie Vibe maybe kind of like James Bond or a dramatic scene from The Metal Gear the metal gear [Music] franchise [Music] that halftime drum pattern just really changes the vibe it g it makes it sound more [Music] Epic [Music] [Applause] [Music] wow the tension the [Music] excitement those powerful Unison Unison of [Music] [Music] democracy [Music] you you know what this feels like this feels like a Last Stand music this is your final chance this is your last hurrah otherwise you fail so give it your all [Music] all [Music] key [Music] change this is it the final scene everything is in slowmo you make it or you break [Music] it that last kid is you can't just help but [Music] salute [Music] you won and you're now shown the score screen or [Music] something or you lost and you're graded a low [Music] ranking that ending Cadence very much like a John williamses score like maybe the final ending of Indiana Jones or or Star Wars or the chase scene is over in in Jurassic Park something like that very cinematic very brass heavy which is a favorite Trope of Hollywood orchestral music but oh man that buildup from what seems to be a more traditional harmonic sound of brasses and then in the middle there's this key change and then we hear some dissonances of the strings going up win win wink something like that it's adding to the tension it's adding to the dissonance to the confusion but in the end the final the final hurrah the final moment you're given a respit It's The End whether you failed or you succeeded in the mission it is now over it's beautiful thank you so much for the five euros Xander and Y thank you so much for the Super Chat I appreciate that okay the Super Chat is so bright it's Illuminating the the lens of the the chat of the camera and the teleprompter okay how about all right I think I will check out three more songs so let me know in the chat what else should I be listening to but the next one I'll be checking out is this super Earth Anthem I'm very curious with just the title alone and I'm already expecting something that sounds glorious there something that is salute inducing tail diver marching cadence super Earth Anthem there we go illuminate music that there's four illuminate music illuminate music a b c okay maybe we'll save the illuminate the four songs of illuminate we'll save that as the last one for today illuminate is a oh no no no no no sorry I prefer I prefer officially released Songs only if it's leaked I might get in trouble for featuring it you know super Earth Anthem super Earth yeah no to leaks and I prefer only published songs published like officially published if it's leaked if it's fanmade that's not really my thing one moment chat something came up all right super Earth Anthem let's go oh hydrate [Music] okay woo I didn't expect full Coral with lyrics wow wow that is [Music] beautiful to your [Music] heart is human will R SU question [Music] sh will all [Music] be all GL is the our God I sh all the world and [Music] for of gyde the SKS of those who di un super the Tor that be saisi [Music] sa to [Music] the [Music] damn sorry I couldn't hear you through all that freedom damn that is beautiful very emotionally sung and I can imagine it being a heightened exaggerated anthem of a f fictional super earth that is beautiful I have to take a listen to it another time and maybe pay attention to the lyrics but now I'm just paying attention to how beautiful the harmony is and there's some unconventional harmonic changes that you wouldn't hear in a normal anthem on Earth on regular Earth and I I think they using some chromatic cadences that kind of sound dissonant to sing but it works in a heightened fantasy militaristic setting there's some something about it that makes you feel proud I don't know why there there's just the this certain power of music that's the beauty of music you know even without lyrics especially without lyrics There's so much power with music with just three or four chords simultaneously happening or consecutively happening you are immediately feeling specific emotions and you don't understand why but that's just the power of music and this is why I love being musician uh this is why I love being a musician you know music is all always a new discovery it's always a mystery waiting to be felt waiting to be experience and this is a beautiful piece of music yeah I'm so glad that a lot of you suggested that I check out hell diverse to the soundtrack is amazing I am all for the I am all for the fantasy synthetic brass Vibe it is just beautiful but I think I will end the stream here chat because uh I actually received an an emergency I have to attend to but if you like and we can we you can tell me right now do you want a part two of this stream next week we'll continue listening to the songs that we did not get to here today and let me know if you want that because I definitely am open for that yeah because this is a kind of long soundtrack La last time we did portal one which is only 12 songs so we one stream can fit that we also did the the noise update for pizza Tower which is also just like nine songs so it's easy to fit that in one stream but next week uh uh you know hell divers 2 38 songs so far in this playlist and a lot of them have multiple versions of each so definitely not going to fit today but I'm definitely open to uh doing a second part I'm cool with it you know I'm cool with it uh it will be edited down in a proper video later on and I will be adding violin ja to songs that I think are fun to jam along to not all of them I think some of them are better just left as brass instruments but I definitely at least saw I I can I can definitely at least see at least two or three of the songs will be fun to add some violin improv to it but yeah I can't play the violin for now anyway because uh I'm still kind of recovering from a finger sprain so at least one more week week of no violin for me um we can listen to all the variants on stream but on the edited video U I will choose the highlights but yeah thank you so much for hanging out thank you to our amazing mods parlock and hawx Phoenix for keeping the chat safe and peaceful for everyone thank you so much for for hanging out thank you for all the super chats thank you for all the the re uh continuation of the memberships I appreciate that I appreciate the support and yes there's going to be a huge Rebrand happening in the channel not just in the channel in my musician career overall but more on that at a later date but in the meantime thank you so much everyone please have a safe and fun rest of your week and I will see you on the next video this coming Friday will be another uh coming out this Friday it's either going to be uh League of leg League of Legends video again or Devil May Cry 5 V theme and in the meantime take care everyone bye
