[@sirparadigm2241]

Glad you like this one! I've been a fan of Warframe for many years, and this track stuck out as my favorite since the moment I heard it.

[@AtlasBenighted]

Thank you for requesting it!

[@Aleksey.Yero.SS.Araujo]

Wake up dreamer! 🤣🤣

[@matiasgallardoaraya3842]

Well done, son.

[@Dagsschiller]

Excellent work Tenno!

[@Glyff3083]

This track plays on loop in my orbiter

[@sipofsunkist9016]

When you hear this song in game, it goes from basic looter shooter to amazing story real fuckin fast

[@FreelancerND]

To be honest, DE never managed to repeat that kind of feeling and "wow" moment after that. No other quest afterwards kicked me that hard in the feelings. UPD: I lied =) The Sacrifice. It hit me way harder.

[@monkeyman767]

​@@FreelancerND I dunno, the whole narmer story line had me hooked! Though I will admit, as a player since near the start, getting the answer to the question of what the Tenno were was immensely satisfying

[@InsomniacDoggo]

@@monkeyman767 Seeing the Solaris who had fought so hard for independence be subjugated by Narmer fucking killed me. Absolutely harrowing.

[@kevintan5497]

its to bad they take forever to get another story mission out, I lost interest after waiting between so many missions

[@monsoonmemes5504]

Agreed a true space epic.

[@ArcaneAzmadi]

Warframe was... a pretty good looter-shooter. Then The Second Dream happened. This music was at its climax. _And it became one of the greatest gaming experiences ever made._

[@subpsycho]

Was?

[@DeadlyAlpha]

​@@subpsychothat gets explained with the rest of their comment... Basically... "it was *just* a good looter shooter originally, but this specific moment is when it became iconic"

[@havtheroc]

There's a little lore behind this song. The woman (an important spoiler character) is singing to a group of special children dreaming (also important characters) and they're singing back to her in their dreams.

[@54Immortal]

And the most amazing thing, is when the Lotus leaves us later on in the story in The War Within, the variation on this song is much darker where the children call out but no-one responds.

[@wolfy9011]

@@54Immortal (SPOILERS] When you get kicked out of the transferce pod from the overload?

[@54Immortal]

@@wolfy9011 can't remember when it comes on but I know it's part of the OST for that quest.

[@Defixio.]

one of the more impactful moments in vidya gaming. and it's difficult to capture for anyone who didn't play from the start. so much clarity of their setting and story in one moment.

[@FukurouYGR]

by "play from the start" you mean playing since the game launched and keeping up with the updates or just playing the story from the beginning?

[@Defixio.]

@@FukurouYGR oh yes, i meant from when the game launched. or really just for a while prior to that update. players would speculate and argue why we must be people in a suit. or cannot be. why we were secretly an ai controling a construct, or if we were just puppets controlled by lotus. everyone had theories and no one expected the quest to just reveal so much and add a system. There was a lot of open speculation amongst the players with no one going "you'll see tee hee spoiler!"

[@Capitan_Captain]

You're god damn right. I play the game since 2014, and that really was an emotional an exciting moment. I almost screamed when the capsule opened, it was the best moment in all of Warframe.

[@adrielic_]

@@Defixio. This reminds me, back in the day when me and a friend of mine finished The Second Dream about the same time, we used to avoid using Operators in pub groups with low MR players to avoid spoiling them. Good times.

[@the21Panda]

This soundtrack marks one of my absolute greatest gaming moments I ever had in my life

[@omegazero6082]

Amen to that

[@thesupreme8062]

Warframe is one of those games that you pick thinking it's just another f2p but you quickly realize it's much more.

[@GoTHaunted_01]

It's the most fun one that I have played. It has evolved so much from how it was when it first released.

[@cayde-6502]

I agree, tho I often get burned out after grinding it for like 3 weeks or so. I started playing it like 5 years back or so and had soo many breaks from it, but just thinking about it always brings me back

[@ZoumZoum310]

and it results in 3500 hours of gameplay

[@Sajgoniarz]

This game is very underrated. Unique graphic style, awesome and also unique plot, magical soundtrack. People just focus on single thing, start grinding and that grind turns to hate. I have 2,2k h in this game and i grinded only once. However i find that new players can find it difficult to start since there are no clues.

[@Teuwufel]

@@cayde-6502 the breaks are good. I think that >300h in a free to play game is a success anyway

[@bluebattlehawk]

I used to play this game religiously, this is one of those tracks that has stuck with me even to this day where I don't personally play the game anymore. This was a turning point for the game and its storytelling, musical score, and quest design.

[@lunerlilly]

Same, I retired playing. But this song always makes us Tenno feel like we are home.

[@evoasus2286]

The "asian stringed instrument" is called an "Erhu". Atleast I believe that to be the instrument used in the song.

[@tarakolindo]

Correct! It's been my all time favorite instrument since I heard it for the first time in the Legend of Korra soundtrack, it's a gorgeous and super unique sounding instrument.

[@teldarin7557]

Dream. Not of what you are, but of what you want to be. I love Warframe so much. Such a unique pearl in the world of gaming. Never seen a more fun movement system. The story, the music, the lore. Nowadays I don't play it anymore, mostly because I lack the time, but I will always love this game.

[@CerebralTripz]

It will always be my baby

[@yvaincallipso84]

This moment in the game made me feel something I'm never going to replicate again. Really respect how every other player went out of their way to not give me spoilers for it because it was so worth it

[@newtthegewt929]

To take its pain away is another great one

[@GoTHaunted_01]

Yes! Warframe has so much good soundtracks tbh

[@rytlocknroll]

This is why Warframe has remained alive and strong for almost 11 years now. When devs listen to their community, their game will go far.

[@madqueen_2262]

Ok, since I saw that pixelated image, I knew I'd like it! I will do my research about Warframe. Thank you very much for the Breakdown!

[@lucashobbs5986]

Thank you for reacting to this it's one of the greatest songs and gaming history. Also there's only one thing I can think of that could possibly make this song better and that's knowing the lore behind the game I mean say you're in the middle of the story in the game while this track is playing it all blends together into one experience

[@Defixio.]

Do "smiles from joran" some time too. in warframe it's another huge moment in game with a very unique song.

[@Jeeboi27]

Fun fact: In this soundtrack, you can hear a single woman singing/vocalizing at the start, followed by a choir of children complimenting the woman’s vocals. These represents the Lotus leading the tenno children in finding their purpose... But if you listen to the soundtrack “Apostate”, you can hear the same choir of children singing still, a little out of sync this time, but the woman’s vocals no longer answers. This represents the Lotus (now Natah) abandoning the tenno and embracing her true Sentient nature, and the tenno now aimless and lost without the guidance of their “mother”...

[@wolfy9011]

Wait Lotus abandons you?

[@KhronicD]

@@wolfy9011 Major spoilers, but yes, at one point in the story she does indeed abandon the Tenno. Willingly or not is up to debate.

[@depressedutchman]

i feel like she is forced to do so... because lotus still lives in her, why did she pick a helm that looks like the lotus (even with her logo on it)@@KhronicD

[@modobo]

One of the best quests in gaming.

[@poolygun4342]

Jesus, i love warframe

[@unrespectedman]

It's basicly a lullabye and in 1 music composition Keith Power present you all Warframe lore what happens before game time. 1 Woman's Voice - is a Archimedian Margulis, Orokin sientist who was in charge of the project with children from spaceship Zariman 10-0 who sing to this child trying to communicate with them. 2 Children's voice - are thous kids from this ship who earned supernatural abilities coz of Void accident. Their respond to Margulis's call. 3 Unite voice of kids and woman in 1 iteration - Their unite as one formation 4 thous "Tribal pattern@" - Margulis's execution for opposing idea of weaponize uses of this children and studi them as warriors 5 Woman's voice in second iteration - Natah under the looks of Margulis trying to communicate with this children with new identety - Lotus 6 Children voice second iterations - Neborn as Tenno, respond to Lotus's call 7 Unite voice of the kids and woman - Second union of the Lotus and Tenno as war regiment under her guidence 8 music intermedia - their deeds as Warrior Cast of the Golden Empire of Orokin. 9 another Tribal part as warning - Tenno rebellion on the Outer Terminus and slaying all Orokin empire as revenge for Margulis's execution 10 Another unite part - their deeds as freedomfighters from the remain of the Golden Empire 11 Woman's voice third iteration - voice of Lotus, who commands "her children" to sleep after destroing of Orokin Empire till they need again. I skip some lore facts coz it's short-line story tale in composition. Only major facts.

The Lotus' opera is to calm you from the realization that youve only just gotten to the character creation menu.

[@Aoenias]

There is one song on the Warframe soundtrack that I like more than this and it is related to this one, it is "Your Decisions Make You", which of course has three versions that are thankfully compiled in one video.

[@josepedrofariasguimaraes7139]

Just letting a recomendation for a song that you might like "the only thing i know for real" it is a ost from metal gear rising revengence that i would like to see your braekdown. Keep with the good work

[@luftism8999]

Orbiter Theme Song

[@diamondsoul8166]

Every time I approach Operator in the game I have a feeling that I'm going to cry because of this music...

[@user-ln4so5fp5r]

Yo, This one was lit! I really liked it.

[@DanielDiaz-ju1yk]

the sorrow is because our space mom (lotus), doesnt want us, her children (the tenno) to fight, but she knows we must, for her for our brothers, for origin system

[@supersonicgamerguru]

The erhu is really the star of this track. It's a bowed instrument with two strings, and the bow is trapped in between the strings, so to play on one you push towards the instrument just like a violin, but to play on the other string you have to push the bow away from the instrument. It's one of my favorite eastern instruments for sure.

[@justanothermusicchannel1465]

Would love to see you react to Chris Christodoulou’s (Risk of rain 1 and 2 composer) Dead bolt, blood on the dance floor. There are a couple other good tracks from the game that I forgot the name of, but I can’t remember the name of them :)

[@vinidveryou7766]

This music is a song from the game. And it actually tells a story. it begins nicely, as a child, that is on board a ship where life is trilling. Where life is fascinating. Then there is a war. Then child regains the power and understands. The war keeps going, but at the end - you understood what you are. And fight against what is wrong. Knowing who you are.

[@vinidveryou7766]

I tried to say it as much without spoiler as possible. But actually all above is a reference. To the Zariman. To Tenno. If you feel like understanding song and the struggle, feel free to check out warframe story.

[@davidbowie4906]

Nice reaction as always! Your next reaction video should be Akaza Vs Rengoku from Demon Slayer Mugen Train or Gear 4 from One Piece. Keep up the great work! ❤

[@Zigeuninja]

If you could react to the Full Metal Daemon Muramasa soundtrack that would be great

[@nohvis4435]

Check out Light of Nibel by Gareth Coker & Aeralie Brighton from the Ori and the Blind Forest Soundtrack

[@miikaniemitalo5551]

ancient instrument is called Erhu

[@AR-bj5et]

DAY 100! of requesting House of Sacred Remains from Castlevania: Lament of Innocence. Beautifully atmospheric track and one of my fave's from video games in general. It'd be awesome to hear what you think of it. It's the theme of a level set starting from a cathedral and ending in the crypts through lots of library areas, it's not a particularly significant or infamous level at all but I think the track really reflects the hallowed grounds housing sacred relics beautifully. The 4 minute upload from the Castlevania Sound Team is the one to listen to.

[@kspayton]

Digital Extremes: "now keith this is just a basic looter shooter. No need to try too hard okay?" Keith Power: "I ONLY HAVE ONE SETTING AND THAT SETTING IS AWESOME!" XD if you have not already heard it you should check out Gwyn's theme from Dark Souls. its called "Gwyn, Lord of Cinder" if i recall. and if you already have i will be watching that reaction next. 07

[@ltloxa1159]

No recomendation. Just happened to look for this.

[@proudlarry8225]

What I like about this track is how it kinda represents the protective nature of The Lotus and their motherly relationship with the Tenno with the calming melody, the lead female vocals, and the choir of Tenno voices. But what I LOVE is how the leitmotifs in this song are common with other songs in the OST that reveal a lot by how they change. Like how in Your Decisions Make You there are similar pieces but there is a slow uplifting build showing the Tenno's journey to fully realize their powers under Teshin's guidance that culminates in the female vocals that could represent The Lotus surging to lift them up. Whereas in Apostate, there is a deep droning that could represent Ballas' influence throughout the track, the choir of Tenno is sad and darker and the prominent female voice that could represent The Lotus is drowned out and lost.

[@louismateo7004]

I don't know how you'll like it but a game I've grown to love titled "Ender Lilies" has an absolutely beautiful soundtrack and I suggest you start with the song "Harmonious" on the OST its truly beautiful

[@elk3407]

This Is What You are gets all the attention, but it's darker version Abandoned is so much more interesting in my opinion. Whereas TIWYA has the call from the female vocals and a response from the choir, in Abandoned there is no call. only the choir mournfully calling out in desperation paired with a horrific drone

[@Anklecracker]

I believe crescent moon from gundam iron blooded orphans is a great one to listen to

[@QuattroPogjeena]

It’s a Chinese instrument called the “erhu”. It’s probably the most famous Chinese instrument, and was also the main instrument in “Oogway Ascends” from Kungfu Panda

[@WwZa7]

What's worth to note, is that at first you have female voice, than choir of children responding. There is also alternative, sober version of it "Apostate", where there's just children choir singing, with no call back from the female voice. Abandoned children calling for their mother...

[@KebradesBois]

Sure, the music is good, but that's a moment you have to live to really get the feeling... when the Operator falls from the capsule. 😭

[@nathanaelip9126]

The context of the the song in the game is that your avatar (the warframe) just learned their true identity but an ancient enemy working through "The Shadow Stalker" is trying to kill you. You have been stabbed through the chest with a very large sword and the Stalker is choking _________ (no spoilers) to death but in this moment when the taiko drums kick in, you surge with energy and rip the sword out of your chest and tear it in half and the energy released "destroys" the Stalker. The resolution is with _______ (no spoilers) who is supposed to represent the soloist singer, carries your broken body to safety and the song plays lightly in the background as she tells you about your past

[@DVAted]

If you liked this song, you have the chance to be the first to analyze Arkham City Theme. I know it's old but it's still relevant. Give it a shot.
