[@MoRiSeR_]

Imo I think it would work if reactions to copyrighted stuff would work if they would just be uploaded unedited (no money = no editing) as it’s separate video. I think that way it could work out. That’s how I’ve seen some people deal with footage that will be copyright claimed once posted online.

So, the guy who "sings" on Unbending Steel isn't actually a vocalist! He's just a guy with a really deep voice that Masayoshi Soken heard talking in a meeting that he was walking by, and basically hauled out of the room by the scruff to record for him! It's been heavily processed, is what I'm saying. 😅

[@dafire9634]

"Oblivion" 's singer for shiva also was a random employee that was renown for being good at karaoke

[@MarcoMeatball]

What

[@Null_Experis]

@@MarcoMeatball Soken is a master of turning random people and objects into musical instruments. The "maraca" instrument in the Costa Del Sol theme of FF14 is just an empty cup noodle container filled with some garbage he had with a piece of paper taped on as a lid. The drum in the Chobobo Racing track is a garbage can he found that made a pleasant sound when hitting it. The man was given an Otomatone fort he first time and in 30 seconds was playing the chocobo theme on it. That man lives and breathes music. Everything fair game for instruments.

[@MarcoMeatball]

Finding someone who is completely unfamiliar with VGM and exposing them to Drift from Guilty Gear Strive is a bit like finding someone who has never drank alcohol and serving them Everclear. There is just no way you can be ready for what you're about to be hit with.

[@armsmaster1953]

This video has sold the theme of classical reactions for me. Time to go back and watch all the Fire Emblem reactions. Subbed! Great vid, watching Luis get thrown by some of the twists and turns of ost development made me laugh 😆

[@MarcoMeatball]

Got a video just for you today then

[@diegomangueira]

You guys talked about how metal and classical mesh so well together, have you heard of symphonic metal? If not, I highly recommend reacting to some Nightwish songs.

[@MarcoMeatball]

Oh what okay?!

[@Louiza02]

I agree with Diego! I think you would really enjoy it. Maybe react together with Luis again? Nightwish is amazing! But I would also like to add Epica and early Within Temptation. They’ve even performed live with a complete orchestra!

[@LunaBianca1805]

Epica would be a great suggestion of that genre, too. And to make the trifecta of Dutch perfect, let's add some Within Temptation as well (even though though they're not as classical, symphonic leaning as the other two). If we're already in that ballpark Exit Eden, Xandria, Auri and Delain, Tarja Turrunens solo stuff (as I know most suggestions that come up will be for Floor's songs, which is legitimate of course, but the other former singers definitely deserve some love, too), Insomnium, In Flames, Kiske&Somerville, Lacuna Coil, Leaves' Eyes, Phantasma (solo project by Charlotte Wessels, former leading lady of Delain), Sirenia and Soilwork, Triosphere and Wagaki Band are great listens as well (not exclusively for meshing metal and symphonic/opera stuff so well, though 😅 Can't blame a metal chick for jumping on that band waggon as well, since y'all already brought it up 😉

[@AHylianWarrior]

[@Kaltsit-]

Drift is still one of the most unique songs I’ve ever heard. As a person who loves so many genres, it works so well. Also btw, Happy Chaos is not a villain exactly, he’s an anti-villain. He loves life and people and the world, but he just thinks that a villain is needed at the moment and chooses to be that.

[@gbtygfvyg]

The song is called Drift. Happy Chaos is the character.

[@Kaltsit-]

He is a villain because he thought the world needed one for drama He did almost everything thats bad in the lore and blamed it on asuka, his student (who had to nuke japan only to stop Universal Will, which is a creation of happy chaos) He is a very bad person but drift funi so its ok

Shadowlord aside, Emil Sacrifice and Kaine Salvation could serve as a nice emotional gut punch.

[@torbenkristiansen2742]

Music was very restricted on the C-64 and even the more advanced Amiga ( although light years ahead of that PC-Speaker). Played a Space Opera game with some actual Opera last night, and that is how to feel alive! This is why these lessons in musical awareness is so important, for it is easy to forget to listen properly!

[@AngryKatie18]

Composer Keiichi Okabe’s “A Beautiful Song” is literally a boss battle against an opera singing, mechanical Simone de Beauvoir sung in a language made up by himself, singer Emi Evans and game director Yoko Taro. Just look up Nier:Automata “A Beautiful Song”. Don’t be confused by the recent animated show, you’re looking for the PS4 game. Also, FF7’s “One Winged Angel pt2” from the PS5 Remaster (I’m sure this gets struck a lot.) Bonus is Casey Edwards+Viktor Borba’s “Bury the Light.” It’s hard rock, instrumental, metal, everything possible from DMC5. Not only does it NOT get struck but Casey Edwards has routinely gone into folks’ comments to thank them for reviewing/reacting which is awesome. Cheers!

[@Daikyu9.47]

Kinda wish now to see more of it with other video game music, from Journey specificity. It was fun to watch, loved the energy

I was sooo surprised by "Sie liebten sich beide". I would have never thought to see German lyrics - even more surprising that it's Opera and from a video game. Also, if you want to hear a really really good "modernized" song: In the game Bramble the theme of the final boss is so fitting, so well integrated and just... epic! had been a long time since I had such goosebumps while fighting a boss!

The singer for Unbending Steel didn't actually want to do it. They really needed to convince him and to this day he isn't happy with his performance (allegedly). Soken had to bribe him with promises of autotune. There is more to this story (several language switches) but this is the most funny. His name is Dan Inoue and he was lead (?) of the localization theme.

[@GrimMeowning]

You should give him to listen to a short Honkai Impact's patch presentation music - "HI3 v4.2 [Rosemary's Nocturne] Trailer" - it is dubstep violin tango. I wish there were more music like this.

[@nubbynubkins4349]

Not sure if this has been said, but as a very casual Guilty Gear player, one of the best parts of the series to me is that the director or producer of the series (don't remember which) is the lead in the band that makes the music. He's been making the games' music the whole time. It's really amazing.

I love this idea of having been exposed to so much awesome videogame music, you then start showing your friends. there's that lovely 'first time' reaction to someone realising how good so much of this is. I know Videogame music does win awards (see: Baba Yetu) but I do still feel that people sleep on how good and crazy some videogame music can get and sometimes has to be to encapsulate complex moments, factions, characters and settings.

[@advisorrook]

[@BJGvideos]

That Ultrakill piece reminds me a lot of Dancing Mad. Which reminds me--how about looking at opera pieces from video games? The through line is that the game the piece I cited is from, Final Fantasy 6, has a very important scene at an opera house where we hear part of it. Other games that opera pops up in are Parasite Eve and Nier: Automata, to name just a few.

I get that there probably aren't as many views with the whole stream uploaded (since 90+ min. is hard to watch in one sitting) but I hope that it's still out there somewhere. I really liked watching some of the other videos because I felt like I was able to experience the entire song alongside Marco and the listener. (Those episodes with Kathleen Kelly were my first views and still my favorites. She is a delight!)
