Fantasy Music for Inspiration - Sunset in the Mountains

[@Go1denOw1]

Blue Turtle's world really feels like a real place that's ambiently existing somewhere, and were just tuning in to live-footage on KZbin. So inspiring.

[@smortonmedia]

Thank you for putting this into words, cuz I feel exactly the same way

[@TerraVibesMusic]

💜

[@preshrunk_cyberpunk5479]

Maybe it is.

[@wubanizer]

Love your take Calum. I'm gonna think of it your way now

[@Vinemaple]

That's the best way I've ever heard anyone put it, Calum C.

[@CyphersBasement]

May Peace grace all who wander.

[@bookwyrm3473]

The town was fully asleep by the time the enchanted mist broke over the wall, summoning the pale echos of the long-dead past, buried beyond the memories of men...

[@zoesnow6578]

Hey Blue Turtle, I just wanted to let you know that as a writer working on my next novel, your playlists have been really helpful. I listen to them whenever I need inspiration. Please never stop making these!

[@TheAnti-Hero]

Nothing comes close to the experience of writing while listening to playlists such as this one.

[@frantisekhylmar1450]

39:50 - Love the sudden revelation of ghost guards still holding their position faithful to their duty (or punished for not doing so by eternal watch?).

[@GahostyDaCat6859]

I never noticed that until I read your comment, thanks.

[@GahostyDaCat6859]

The lore of blue turtle always amazes me😸

[@Jobroose]

Best thing to wake up to when I know I'm tackling housework and trying to plan some D&D today. These are always great

[@hollybrielle2355]

I love this for housework music too!

[@glassmith1939]

The music you play is great, but your art is what really stands out to me. The landscape in this one was so gorgeous and beautiful. I’ve been looking at a lot of pictures of Italy lately (because I’m going there this summer and I’m really excited) and it looks like the sweeping, beautiful landscapes in those pictures. Your work is amazing, and thanks for supplying me with these great playlists that I can listen to whilst doing homework.

[@Hotarubi-dono]

Oh I'm italian! Where are you from? Will you be visiting any big city?☺️

[@glassmith1939]

I’m from the US, and I’m going to Venice, some countryside places, then to Florence. It looks like an amazing country!

[@isavivith]

👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@lynnjohnson9727]

Let us know how your trip is!!!! And if you find any super awesome places!

[@glassmith1939]

@@lynnjohnson9727 I will.

[@Blind_Dragoon]

I’m doing some D&D world building today so this couldn’t come at a better time 💙

[@mysticalasduck6514]

I've been writing a DnD campaign and this music has just plunged me into the Fantasy Mood

[@Blind_Dragoon]

@@mysticalasduck6514 hell yeah, I always find myself listening to Blue Turtle’s videos when I need inspiration. I highly recommend the hour long mixes

[@GahostyDaCat6859]

Blue turtle is perfect for D&D, and even homework. It makes me feel like I'm on a epic journey.

[@fernandoavendanha8279]

The detail of her reading the book during daylight whilst waiting for the sunset to begin is so simple and yet so amazing!

[@OgreTeethOfficial]

Tbh Blue Turtle playlists are kinda bussin hardcore rn

[@happytofu5]

Wooow I never saw the spirits before 😲 I mostly listen to it in the background, so it was an amazing surprise.

[@country_flyboy]

That transition from Valley of the Kings to Neptune (41:56) is perhaps one of the greatest musical combinations I have heard. It takes me on a journey home, starting with the wondrous majesty of the Appalachians in sunrise, zooming into great valleys carved by the Tennessee River, only to slow and settle onto a peaceful home. The gentle breeze combs through the woods and glides over the lake, where the sweet birdsong and the fragrance of rain on fields of grass fill the air with a serenity I have seldom felt since.

[@AegixDrakan]

Every time we get a new track, is a good day in my boo- -AAAAAAH! HAUNTED CITY TOWER! :o How does anyone in that city sleep knowing that's a thing?!

[@Infinite_Maelstrom]

Maybe that's why this city seems so sparsely populated? On the other hand, they looked like they were defending the tower against some other ghosts - perhaps they don't care much about the people inside the city? Its always so hard to tell with ghosts. I liked their inclusion as a narrative device though.

[@Vinemaple]

One common type of ghost phenomenon is an unchanging repetition of past events, almost like a recording being played back. These ghosts may be uncanny and possibly worse, but have no agency or awareness of the present. Ilthya may have been warned not to stay on top of the walls too long... perhaps, as James Donaldson suggests, only the unaffected parts of the city are inhabited.

[@bobafett1186]

I'm currently writing stories for a Wizard and his Apprentice! This was perfect!

[@Kobiwano]

Came for the music, stay for the art

[@limer1243]

Just saw the ghosts for the first time after having this on while I study a number of time. Love the little hidden details in the animation!

[@celdor593]

Me too! I've listened to it many times and had never seen the ghosts!

[@AngelsLullabies]

I am a passionate advocate for Blue Turtle, actively striving to acquire and embody their distinctive style.

[@metrotek5]

Everyone should do what Ithyä's doing in this post I think people, over time, forgot how to observe the beauty of our planet, of our universe Much love to you all

[@postymusic4387]

This music is with me all day long. Making paintings and scribbles. Feels good to and brings inspiration. And i love turtles :D

[@jasonuren7365]

Yes, so happy, another video and not LOFI. I like chill music to not have a beat. These are the best early morning work, music collections. Thank you for making them.

[@judithmoreno7008]

These are the best instrumental music videos in youtube right now for me. When i need to relax i always think in this channel. Thats why i want to give you a HUGE thank you!!!

[@macepacegt1038]

That poor tree does not have a chance to grow completely, but at least it has a baller view of the mountains

[@Neptune-yw3nr]

This is perfect to read to : ).

[@travisbishop3282]

Oh wow, I never noticed the ghost guards at 00:40:00 before.

[@bethany9185]

I’m so invested in this city! It’s extraordinary how just the few glimpses you’ve given us so far have managed to achieve that (along with the gorgeous music!)…it’s seriously skilful world-building! I want to see more of the city now :)

[@kevincrady2831]

I'm nerdy enough to want to know its history. 😄 And also, I wonder why the land around it is so empty of human (or other intelligent species) life: no satellite villages, no farms, no other cities in the distance... I get the impression that humanity and any other sapient species that might exist in this world are slowly dying out. The Tower is enormous compared to the city, implying a larger population with much greater abilities/technology. The city has a different architectural style and aesthetic, so it looks like the product of a successor culture. But it has fallen into semi-ruin and disrepair. The people inhabiting it now appear to be too few in number to repair and rebuild it. A wooden fence across a breach in the wall (visible in one of the other videos featuring the city) represents a feeble attempt at shoring up the city's defense, but the walls are still too badly damaged to keep invaders out. In a scene where Ithya enters the city, the City Guard have a token presence at the gate, and they seem pretty lax. So it doesn't seem like the inhabitants are particularly concerned about marauders despite their vulnerability. Maybe it's just so isolated that there haven't been any marauders or rival empires in living memory...

[@svendtang5432]

The art style and thematic issues of these are the same as in the game Sable ... if you love this try this game its full of the same potential and unknown mystery...

[@SterileNeutrino]

The Moebius drawing style ("ligne claire" though Moebius used a lot of dégradés with beautiful effect later) always wins me over.

[@h0l0grm26]

36:18 is the music that No Rolls Barred us for Blood on the Clocktower! Caught me off guard haha, fantastic playlist for studying as always :))

[@link090909]

Came here to say the same thing, I’m sitting here and get jolted out of my train of thought 😂 I was expecting Tom’s voiceover

[@giorgiocalabro7997]

I f***ing love this channel, its videos, its story telling, its music, and all of its other components I'm too lazy to list.

[@jamieuniverse9318]

This is usually the only time I can sit still and just enjoy life

[@architmandloi2462]

Through your art and music.. I embrace in exams. Thank you for creating awesome stuffs

[@sadwispy]

as usual, everything about this is utterly amazing, but the moment in the animation when the ghosts appear sent shivers down my spine. incredible!

[@TheRealSnackyNorph]

These are criminally underviewed.

[@eugenemurphy6037]

I cannot say just how much having this world live and breathing on my second monitor adds to the enjoyment and quality of my own fantasy worldbuilding and writing. Thank you for sharing.

[@doihavetobeg]

I cannot express how weirdly nostalgic and at the same time hopeful your videos and music make me. If I could have one wish, it would be to follow your traveler on her journey and simply enjoy and experience the world (while also maybe documenting the whole trip).

[@seansidoni8103]

Love listening to this while I write. 36:17 is probably my favourite.

[@honorbound5439]

I liked before I listened, because that's what real fans do.

[@Zhought3391]

I have been under a terrible amount of stress and just in a bad place generally. Listening to your music as part of my day has helped me clear my mind. Thank you so much-God bless you.

[@NobodysSon]

These compilations are my go to when writing. They are the perfect combination of inspirational and calming. Thank you for helping me to weave stories, Blue Turtle!

[@isavivith]

👍🏽

[@unwindcitysnow]

Each of these videos stands as a testament to the mastery of your craft, a canvas where creativity and skill converge to create visual masterpieces.

[@fiveoakproductions]

Saw this video in my feed and instantly stopped scrolling! Love the soundtrack and starry night - I feel like I'm in a movie!!

[@PineappleAdrift]

I finally started watching Andor and I was immediately struck by how much his home town and the world with the Empire base look just like your drawings!

[@rza510]

Perfect! My wife and I listen to you daily...especially when we play board games and card games like weiss schwarz or mtg... it just fits the mood lol Thank you!

[@Minalkra]

Now we know that the world of Ithya is geocentric, at least - the stars don't move all night but man that sun TRUCKS across the sky!

[@h.kmckinney5648]

I play all my D&D one-off's to these mixes, honestly such a blessing to have this soundtrack!!

[@ninomtsituri]

[@SageNoodleVT]

I've been sat watching the sunset on this video now for nearly an hour and i've honestly been lost in it. Amazing ambience and an artworld I want to live in!

[@chighibli257]

Everything about this video is just *chef's kiss*

[@dominicmcg2368]

I love the style and the subtle characterisation with pose and expression in Ithya's Journey, it feels like a perfect meld of Moebius and Ghibli where Ithya reminds me specifically of Sypha from Castlevania and Nausicaa from Valley of the Wind, which I think is why I love it so much.

[@romancandleofthewild]

This channel has the exact kind of fantasy music that I've been looking for and it's my favorite, by far.

[@maryanne32]

Each one of these videos is a masterpiece 🤍

[@FaaBioo972]

So.... I lived tis magical moment of this premiere : listening to this inspirational music with others and discover this wondeful work of @Blue Turtle and the possibility to chat with him/her directly. That's this kind of kindness moments in life where you can say : "I've got Faith in Humanity, in Love and Hope" Have a wonderful day and a greatful life ❤
