This is music adderall. These Ethereal Breaks have been a huge part of me finding the "flow state" within myself to really turn my GPA around this year. Keep it coming cuz i'm hooked! Forever grateful for your magical mixes, whatever college I get accepted into next year - I know wouldn't have been possible without the ethereal breaks to help me eliminate all the distractions and make me feel at home everywhere I go. Thank you Papa Zen 🫶 College Update: Got accepted into UHart with a renewable $30,000 scholarship to help with tuition! Gonna tell my kids about the impact these ethereal breaks had on me someday, thanks again Papa Zen 🥹

Stop doing this holy shit. Amazing mix love some Badu and Blu Mar ten!

[@CivilZoology]

Had to listen to this mix about 20 times during work, gym, and gaming to rank it appropriately compared to the other ethereal breaks mixes. This one is my favorite, and really it wasn't close. The mixing, the classic breaks and icy jazz vibe to splashes of futuristic DnB, alongside the retro gaming GOAT visuals makes this a true force. An amazing education on what jungle was and continues to be is right here.

[@papazenism]

Thank you man, I appreciate you for taking the time to always show love on these! ❤️❤️

what an apt description - you have a way with words my dear

[@GoldenBoyXCM]

So it wasnt even close but you had to listen to it 20 times in order to rank it. But it wasnt even close. What logic is that?

[@helborneo9309]

Hey, I just wanted to say that this kind of video is pretty cool. I'm going through a tough time in my life, and these videos remind me of better times.

[@papazenism]

I’m glad these vids are helping you even just a little bit. Hope things get better for you soon

[@xxbondsxx]

Same, nostalgia is so incredibly powerful. These clips bring me comfort, happiness, and fond memories. The mix on top makes perfection

[@Warriorlegend756]

I had a long period of rough times myself, we can draw strength from our nostalgia. Be the person we wanted to be, you can pull through this, I know it. Be patient and kind to yourself, and never give up.

I couldn’t agree more

I love these mixes sm, the background gameplay always goes so hard. That dolphin one look chill asf ☠

thats ecco for ps2 i believe. and later on that game gets trippy asf lol. the genesis one is classic

Thank you! I always try to curate the best tracks and visuals!

No way with the Fable Lost Chapters opening. This is pure nostalgia for me man. Thank you 🖤

same!!! played that game at least 100 times in my childhood...god so good

[@Homegrowntone666]

honestly loving the resurgence of dnb jungle breakcore etc what really brings me to these mixes is the thumbnails its even greater when the mix is on point subbed.

[@papazenism]

I'm honestly loving it too! Thanks for listening man!

[@xziyl6706]

It’s crazy how the vibe of these tracks brings me back to feeling like I’m 5 again playing on the original Xbox. All new songs to me that sound so familiar. 25 now and feeling more nostalgic than ever

[@humphreybogus4165]

kosmos was the waifu to end it all you just had to be there. She was modded into like every game. if theres a game on pc in the early 00s she was in it.

[@KawaiiKandi]

Had no clue where she came from or who she was but I loved playing her in unreal tournament lol!

[@mattakudesu]

Frfr, Kos-Mos was literally the first fictional character I ever considered a waifu back in the day. I still have all three Xenosaga games for my PS2. I'm so glad they got so much mileage out of her character. I remember being so hype that you could recreate Kos-Mos in Soul Calibur 3.

[@F4RTIST]

Those Fable visuals got me feeling nostalgic. Was one of my absolute favorite games back in the day.

[@DANNYSPRN]

39:17 i think this is the best transition i have ever heard in my life

[@MogekoMagica]

Always happy to see people remembering Xenosaga

[@GoatToHeal]

Had to click when I saw the Xenosaga thumbnail. Really glad I did as this is such a nice and nostalgic walk through a time long lost.

[@ciguatera780]

same, a little disappointed there were no clips of it in the video

[@papazenism]

@@ciguatera780make sure you check out ethereal breaks 004, i got some xenosaga for ya ;)

[@Mazzancolla]

I listened to this while high on shrooms and it was one of the best experiences of my whole life, the upbeat fast bpm drums and the chill delicate melody of this music perfectly encapsulate the simultaneously stimulating and relaxing effects of magic mushrooms. I also love the transition at 21:20, the foreshadowing of that sitar-like instrument followed by that prince of persia gameplay is just brilliant ahahahahahah. Really looking forward to ethereal breaks 004, keep up the good work dude.

[@danielw3447]

Seba & Alaska - Back from Eternity So glad you threw that one in. One of my all time favorite tracks. Respect.

[@TheSer9io]

Fable, wooow, didn't expect that! Reminds me of good old PS2 GMVs from 2000s. Actually it is one of those, but only a month old. Got a powerful nostalgia wave

[@mpghappiness]

the transition between 'Commix - Be True' and 'eightiesheadachetape - what we did in the desert' is so sick, excellent mix.

[@Nisfornarwhal1990]

I agree 100000% , transition got me good

You might cause a ripple in time that could erase DnB from the modern Era 😢

[@powrlines]

This actually goes so hard, i really really love this, it has helped me through studying chemistry and concentrating like a whole lot. Its so amazing i almost want to learn how to produce jungle and dnb music while i go stargazing. The visuals here are amazing and give that vibe that matches perfectly the music we are hearing, its really great!

[@quore]

This is the first Etheral Break that I listen to, and I have to say that I'm REALLY impressive and hyped up to listening to the others To be honest, I'm finding myself learning about the 2000's esthetics im general these last months (i always saw these aesthetic but never know what it was). I'm learning about DnB, Jungle, Drum & Bass, Liquid and etc etc and all of this are becoming my new favorite genre of music. You got a sub and I can't wait for the next break, until there, I'll listen to the other Ethereal breaks and other Mixes as well Thanks mate. Edit: I just figured out that DnB is the abbreviation to Drum & Bass 😅😅

[@kore.7313]

unrelated to the music but a large majority of those games were literally my childhood thanks for the nostalgia😭

[@Rayzstoner]

26:14 That Night Elf Hunter footage from Ashenvale ~ Vanilla WoW. The atmosphere, buildings, sceneries, npcs, quests, and it all stands the test of time, one of if not the greatest MMORPGs to ever unfold ~ circa 2004. Never stop papa zen your mixes inspires me and so many others. much love

[@DoweDowDow]

Wise words. Til this day no game can even get close to wow itself (exp aside).

Realmente creo que he tenido el mejor momento de mi año al escuchar esto. Me ayudó a escribir y fluir bien. Te amo el que subiste el video o hiciste el mix, hiciste arte, y fuiste lo más humano que podias ser, un puente entre el cielo y la tierra, entre la fuente y esta realidad.
