Drowning In Cushions - Silent Hill inspired ambience music

[@akiraphantom5]

"James... If that were true, then why do you look so sad?"

[@JoeRobson]

I remember torrenting the entire Silent Hill 2 soundtrack years ago. I was obsessed with Akira Yamaoka. (Still am!) I put it on shuffle and went about my chores. Had to do a Max Payne-style dive to my PC because what I had downloaded included as a "bonus track" the clean, unedited audio of the video James watches in the hotel. So I was blasting that to my neighbours at lunchtime.

[@SurvivalSpheres]

What a hilarious anecdote! Did your neighbors look at you with a weird expression afterwards? So much that you had to decide to leave the country? ^^

[@JoeRobson]

It didn't help that my girlfriend at the time had just moved back to Japan, so she suddenly wasn't around any more! @@SurvivalSpheres

Drowing in cushions!??? Yay!!!! but the picture is kinda sad :c

I’ve never played a silent Hill game. I’ve watched videos on it, Play through and essays on it but have never had the time to sit down and play one. When I do. And I DEFINITELY plan on playing one. And maybe I’ll come back to this video and see why people love it so much P.s I do love the music despite not having played the game this is my Jam

[@SurvivalSpheres]

I totally think that you can grab the main vibe and elegance of SH from just watching. However, there's something else that only comes from playing. The desperation and loneliness, especially if you play at night and alone. Not sure if I will ever do that again, but I'm glad I did before. So good luck, and looking forward to see you back whenever time is right.

you got the best musics to take a break and think a bit about life.

I am determined to be here as long as you are :-) It's nice to walk down this path together. Although I hardly know most people here, they/you feel more relatable to me than many people from everyday life.

This is so haunting and beautiful like a dream that stays with you well into the waking hours.

Fleeting memories, Eternal sorrow. In my final hours I remember your visits, like the waves washing on the shore, growing ever so distant and short. You know what must be done, no matter the reason. Stay with me one last time and put me to rest, on this gray season.

[@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa2557]

Beautiful music for falling into a deep sleep.

[@silversobe]

Has a vaporwave golden eye vibe

[@yvesheinrich5013]

Gotta say, this one feels like it belongs (or rather inspired) from Silent Hill 1, had an in-game picture of it was used for the thumbnail. It's just so eerie, but calming and simple that reminded me of tracks like Infinite Tunnel and Life from the first game. Anyway, you've been killing it with these inspired music from Silent Hill and Resident Evil recently! As always, keep up the good work!

[@SurvivalSpheres]

From game soundtracks to ambient music, I often find myself adoring the most simplistic songs more than the complex ones.

[@yvesheinrich5013]

@@SurvivalSpheres Agreed! That's what hooked me up in the first place, thanks to channels like yours that bring these inspired-soundtracks to life in a completely fresh way.

[@parevek]

this gives me vibes of astral projection. I would like to think shes right next to him with her arm around next him. It's like shes saying "its ok love we will have our eternal peace in the next life". What a beautiful piece my friend. Such serenity and bliss aura surrounds this soul.

[@EveryTimeV2]

This comment and the video inspired me to think about the Bjork stalker. A lonely man that had been left for years to delve into another world, that world being his escapist fantasies. He had no record of being abused that we know of, but it seems he was plagued by feelings of inadequacy, and a fundamental hollowness in himself about who he was, he couldn't love himself, he probably did accept a lot of negativity from the world around him, after all, he lived in our narcissistic culture that idealizes success and makes monsters of weakness that will not accept itself. He was in a sick way, a little reflective of the world at large's insecurities. Only, magnified -- he went on to plan to kill Bjork, still in his delusional world, where he thought he would be "reunited with her in heaven". Interestingly of all, he said he was sending her to hell. Maybe he thought they would end up in different places. How does it relate to the video? Well, in silent hill we have a similarly broken protagonist. He killed her, in the end, that's why he's in silent hill, he's in a purgatory in some senses, maybe because of guilt, maybe he is, in a literal sense, dead, it could be interpreted many ways. But he is not what I'd call a romantic character, he is a murderer.

[@SurvivalSpheres]

@@EveryTimeV2 I've never heard of Björk's stalker before, but after parevek's comment mentioning "...in the next life" and your sentence "Maybe he thought they would end up in different places." I suddenly felt the creeps. There was a faint memory, almost forgotten, that hit me with great force. In Silent Hill 2, there's this message in Neely's bar, reading which increases the chance to get the "In Water" ending. It says: "If you ReaLly want to sEE Mary, you shOUld just DiE. But You might be hEadiNg to A diffErent place than MARY, James." Damn it guys...

I first discovered this channel through Primal Fears I believe. Ever since then I was hooked on these tracks! Thank you so much for the beautiful melodies, I look forward to listening to many more ❤

[@SurvivalSpheres]

Primal Fears, huh? So a rather gloomy, slightly tense start for you. Nice that you stayed anyway.

@@CrazyKoenieJust to clarify once more, whenever people purchase an album, they will automatically own and be able to download all songs that get added later to that album as well. The only risk is that I could pass away, thus not being able to keep my promise to reach another 100 this time… But seriously, big thanks again.

The safest place is the moment where we are right now. What lies ahead is hidden inside the fogs of the unknown and this music track depicts this entire analogy with perfection. It is sad, gloomy and dark but gives a soothing feeling too, as if everything is fine "Yet"... ❤
