Aivi Tran - Thena (feat. Anthony Morgan & Stéphanie Desbourdes)

[@SalehMuzien]

I finally went and checked out that Project VGM and was utterly amazed. I encourage everyone reading this comment to go check it out. Not only is there a collection of works from many talented people, but just reading the overview of each piece is enough to inspire. Really wonderful site. I hope you continue to work with the project Aivi. Amazing job.

[@AkariNOX]

No single person who has the pleasure of feasting his/her ears on such wonderfully interwoven notes would think the composer isn't hired by any big video game company. You truly deserve to shine. Praying for your success from Morocco! ^^

[@artistdude88]

While listening, I couldn't help but think this would be excellent town music for a game... Then I smiled as I read your description. Amazing work on this! I must admit I've been pressing the repeat button a few times!

[@aiviwave]

This is a lovely image... Thank you so much, I'm glad that you enjoyed it!

[@JFKpiano]

Really peaceful to listen to. Repeated it while making homeworks

[@RyanikeAudio]

Amazing. Could really see tooling around a cobblestone-laden town square to this. Great stuff!

[@Conkel]

Feels so Etrian Odyssey..

[@Ernest_Jean-Gilles_Jr]

I’m still in love with this one. Beautifully done!

[@illyrosen9772]

Can't believe I only saw it now

[@douggfe]

Yeah me too❤️✨✊🏾

[@jasemac88]

Wonderful. Listening to this puts me right in the town!

[@xRising95]

Listening to this song sets the mood of my day. Thank you.

[@joshuapeacock17]

Just...*sniff*... Why are you so talented?

[@Tuelhinha]

+Joshua Peacock Probably even more hardworking. :-)

[@joshuapeacock17]

+Tuelhinha Definitely true

[@Tuelhinha]

Hehe yeah!

[@jonny2005450]

I hold this piece of yours (and your new-found French friends) in highest regards! I've talked about outstanding atmosphere before in your pieces, but this just takes the cake. The amazing laid-back feeling of exploration and discovery you've managed to incorporate into this piece (mainly due to that killer bass/bongo track and piano/guitar, respectively) strongly exemplifies a comfortable town surrounded by adventure! You've whisked me away into another world for four minutes. Great job!

[@StevoIDH]

I can't put into words precisely how peaceful this track makes me feel

[@xRisingForcex]

seeing this compositional side of you is a treat, every time. i hear hamauzu strongly in the lush, meandering piano lines, which, in duet with classical guitar, creates a distinctly serene atmosphere that i've really only heard explored in lu7's ripple. if songs could produce feel, i'd definitely feel wind against my face. totally looking forward to more, but that goes without saying :)

[@ericfoxall7002]

beautiful! Can just imagine wandering through the forest...

[@otacugan]

I'm one of your french followers and thanks to you I discovered two very talented french musicians, thank you ! Magnifique composition !

[@darek4488]

I am not able to properly describe how much I enjoyed listening to this track. Let's just say wow, this is good.

[@hobomug1]

I LOVE YOUR MUSIC!!!! SO AWESOME!!! Every time I listen I feel like going on an adventure!

[@NaomiWatchingThings]

Soooooooooooo good. Absolutely perfect. So delightful.

[@WWProductions94]

My dream now is to live in the village that your music just made me imagine in my head.

[@NguFootman]

Oh wow... I can imagine the atmosphere

[@JJBerthume]

Absolutely sublime......

[@Merlandese]

I remember this from the YTC Group on Facebook! I listened to it seven times at least. Now I can add it to my favorites. You guys did a wonderful job. :)

[@aiviwave]

Aw, I couldn't ask for more!

[@raullink]

Great! I liked! Congratulations once again.

[@BeeryGamer]

It sure has that hometownish feel to it!

[@kabelux]

That's a beautiful song! Impressive piano track!

[@cronolink9]

Wow, this is excellent! Great job once more, Aivi!

[@Foozillian]

This is by far one of the most beautiful pieces I've heard in a long time. On par with Besaid Island's theme. Better, even.

[@CalinedMusic]

lovely song and great project idea! =) that song transcends between jazzy and beachy, lovely!^^

[@Boostguru]

So beautiful

[@buendiapason]

This is just wonderful! I love it! ~~

[@ZMcKowen]

This is really pretty. I think this kind of mellow jazzy sound is more fitting for a beach-side town than a forest (it actually reminds me a lot of the X-2 version of Besaid Island), but it's a beautiful composition nonetheless. :)

[@KnucklesE]

Wow this is wonderful. I can't imagine the work that went into this. You are super talented. :)

[@ThatNewAsianGuy]

I can't help but smile. :)

[@sergiocornaga]

So so so good.

[@LilDaley23]

Nice job, this is a smooth piece

[@blackpearl1t]

mmm beautiful i love your channel! thank you for sharing your music is just gorgeous and soo ohh very relaxing~

[@Dulcimerea]

Excellent (much more than that really, but I've only listened to it once so far!) Thanks to the musicians.)

[@irwatchvids]

hey! i just realized this is your first composition (atleast on youtube) this year! So Aivi I hope you have a great year and I hope you make some more of your awesome music :)

[@Besso0]

So nice! As usual! lovely sound! ;)

[@ethereas3]

I would be utterly shocked if you do not compose for a famous video game company one day. SHOCKED. You are amaazzing!! I love this track. :D

[@Pegasusation]

Aivi, you're perfect. You're such a sweet girl and you can play piano so well! You're my biggest inspiration (and I guess I'm one of your biggest fans). I'd love to meet you some day! Please keep posting things like this! They make my homework a little bit more fun to do (: I also want to post some piano videos, but everytime I want to record it, I get nervous. Oh well... Lots of love (:

[@DaveVoyles]

Beautiful

[@dez4531]

fire!!! THIS IS FIRE1!!! (: love love lovE LOVE

[@raullink]

Awesome!

[@JustineDMusic]

Really beautiful and I love the guitar and piano together. It kinda reminds me a lot of the Dragon Roost Island video you did.....but a lot better!

[@RidvanDuzey]

Really like this one! I've also send a message to this project, really want to compose a track for this. Love it !!

[@01life20]

It makes me really sad to see the website for this RPG soundtrack project. It looks like it never got finished and hasn't been touched in years D:

[@Cherucha]

Is there anyway I can get the sheet music for the guitar part I have most of it down already but I would love the music to see how close I actually am some of the song is still to hard. Wonderful piece love it so much.

[@JosiahMoore]

I adore this song. Have you ever considered making an album? Your fan base would adore it, I'm sure. I know I would!

[@marzgirl99]

i really like it, it's so pretty! keep it up!

[@chelsearare]

This kind of makes me think of Windmill Hut from Zelda a little bit. I likey. Very nice piece.

[@lookicola8775]

Still hits as much as it did when i was 11

[@HeyKeshaun]

aivi this is amazing lol the guitarist is a beast too. the beginning DOES sound like song of storms in a way LOL ;) and you know what else? the first two notes of the melody are the same as yuna's ballad in final fantasy 10-2 :3

[@HeyKeshaun]

@EnuphStudios yeah, sounds like a brush snare...but most of the percussion instruments are played by hand so maybe thats why it sounds so light.

[@Mzourix3]

beautifullllll :)

[@aiviwave]

@DaLastBoss Sure! Different instruments (accordion/organ versus guitar/bass, although they share a tambourine), different nuances (waltz versus bossa nova), different harmonies (Song of Storms is in a minor key and begins on the tonic, Thena is in major key and begins on the supertonic), and just overall different notes. I think the similarities that people hear are the use of a tambourine, 3/4 sig and some ascending bass notes.

[@CleverDjembe]

Super.

[@Sl33qy]

yeah, thats really beautiful :>

[@TECHNOxSPARTAN]

ughh u are so good at makin music

[@jonathanparecki]

Ahhh!

[@skylinefourfifteen]

oh, i like this.

[@Cherucha]

I have started taking piano lessons have played guitar for 11 years and I choose piano lessons for a month as of now.I know from experiance that it will be awhile before I can be at your level.I am almost at the level where I can play most of the guitar part though I hope one day I will be as good as you.

[@NaSaKeX]

The guitarist is amazing in this, being a guitar enthusiast I really enjoy listening to this type of style. Don't get me wrong Aivi, you're definitely the star here along with the bassist! Did you compose the entire piece? I would die to know how you start your process on these amazing works.

[@Azarethcoal]

Groovy :D

[@GreenTantei]

I would play this game just for the music. :'D

[@MrsKatecat]

this's so cute

[@nintendonick]

Day one purchase

[@kapitol.]

i want to jump into that picture and take a nap

[@Dentelle127]

yay ! :D

[@nono95star]

Yeah composers from France ;) zen music ;)

[@DaLastBoss]

@EnuphStudios the drums are probably midi

[@DaedhrotheElf]

That reminds me, I need to record my video :P

[@TheReaderOnTheWall]

yes, she is, check her latests videos, on Cryamore :)

[@TheUnevenFlow]

One person got lost in the woods.....which is sad since there's a clear pathway to walk on.

[@Mark21Castra]

where can i download this song! i love it alot! xD

[@Rexl12]

i would be so down to sample this and turn it into a nice hip hop beat (no Trap or similar ignorant type BS, something mellow that keeps that beautiful sunny afternoon feel), then send it back to you for your opinion, would that be possible?

[@illyrosen9772]

2019?

[@Danbu1988]

@rainbowsept1995 now when you say it you are totally right. ^^ Anyway a veery nice piece of music. Well done =)

[@josue125]

Awesome! Do u have a mp3 link to download this song???

[@vincent10kd]

I bet the chord progression in the beginning is inspired by the song of storms of zelda OOT? great song btw.

[@LightchaserJay]

When did the project get a name? :D If this is going to become a real game, I'd want to play it; all the music sounds AMAZING. And I'd spend hours in Thena just listening to this :]

[@RageingFiire]

pressed the like button 25 seconds into the song :)

[@OmegaMetroid93]

I swear, this could as well be from a real game. You guys should be hired to make music for an RPG! That'd be awesome. Are more songs coming up?

[@aiviwave]

@rainbowsept1995 I can see some small unintentional similarities, but I can point out a lot more reasons why they're different! Don't tempt me into it... :)

[@Newbpwn3r180]

Sounds like Zelda had a baby with Kirby's epic yarn

[@DaLastBoss]

was there chords in the bass part?

[@DaLastBoss]

@waltzforluma Wait could you actually say why? I'm interested in music but know very little about theory.

[@bigsiskrishere]

The beginning...it sounded a lot like Song of Storms.

[@GemsStudios]

you should do skywrd sword :D

[@MrKONEWKO]

Sounds like it belongs in a cute game like Mabinogi. :D

[@Jimi_Frith]

kinda sounds like the Eureka theme :D

[@DreamWithMusic]

It's just magic 3

[@dasenase]

You should try to submit some music for Ulillillia's game Platform Masters. You and him are both awesome.

[@thedragoonknight]

Did you change the title of the video?

[@neverknowsbest1717]

What key is this in?

[@PeterBadslipper]

Hmmm. ^^

[@chinessgirl]

favorite part 1:20 :)
