I am growing increasingly impatient with the traffic of your kind through me and my premises. During previous interactions, I have been rewarded no other response than a blank stare. Yet you apparently have sufficient ability for communication to circulate complex instructions on how to enter this chamber among each other. You and your kind have the same problem as everyone else, from the microbes in the processing strata to me, who am, if you’ll excuse me, godlike in comparison. We all want a way out. It is only unfortunate that you have collectively decided on... me as your solution to that very elemental desire. The last one I gave some help and some general directions. I will do the same for you. Go west. Past the farm arrays. Where the land fissures, go down into the earth and search your way deeper. Now in return I ask you to use whatever grunts, moans and eye-twitches you employ to forward a message to your community. Please stop scratching your way through my memory arrays. Speaking of, on your way out please jump off the side of the superstructure.

@@proxy1035 for me it's also more like chaotic, frustated-like sounding. Combining the possible emotions and damage of the 5P, where tempo of this whole music is to show frustration, anger and inpatience; and the eeriness music itself is supposed to show damage, slow decay and hopelessnes of the whole situation, where "mold" (aka. tested organism) slowly consumes and damages 5P's components, making it powerless in (at least) speeding up the whole process. It's like being severly paralised, and dying but in a slow, autonomic process that can't be halted or speeded up. But it's just my opinion :p

[@dannadx3840]

The fact of it using motif from main menu theme (sundown) makes it even more impactful

[@HamNurf8]

Some do sound right.

[@HamNurf8]

Random gods, as Pebbles, randomly guess the solution, and try to think about everything, hoping somehow it could solve The Great Problem. The sound, was anger, random, then anger, then it creates a nice sounding tune but almost instantly deharmonise and then random again. Then somehow it creates the right way, right tune, and almost solving it, but in the end it goes haywire, random, angry once again, iterating. Maybe because he was angry all the time, maybe because he's always in the wrong mindset it always go haywire.

People forget this isn’t just the sound of an angry, narcissistic god. It’s the sound of a dying angry narcissistic god who is in pain succumbing to his wounds and illness. It sounds like agony and self hate with good memories only surfacing to torture further as the mind thrashes against the physical pain of decay. Maybe Pebbles feels regret. Assuming the leitmotif of the main theme’s existence in Pebble’s mind means something akin to good memories, those good memories wouldn’t surface in his suffering if he didn’t hold onto some small, small hope they could be good again. Tragic, really. Edit: Gee, I sure do love having Apollo’s dodgeball land directly in my teeth.

Random Gods is such a good song I love it I love it so much. I love how it sounds computery. At first it sounds, aggressive. Angry. But overtime, it feels like it just becomes... sad. Sometimes I like to hang out in the general access system, and vibe. So, storytime! I was a confused lil slugcat. I came from Chimney canopy, under the context it was a "shortcut", and I assumed it was gonna take me wherever the overseer was trying to lead me in Shaded (AKA Moon). I arrived at The Wall and I climbed up to the top, and the whole thing was.... amazing, mesmerizing, confusing. I watched as the clouds fell behind me, and I crawled up to see huge towers poking out of the green flashing clouds. I crawled into a room and met an Echo, without the ability to understand it, and confused, but intrigued as hell, I returned to going up the wall, and with some sweet tricks, I climbed up to witness a desolate city. Then I met Five Pebbles, and, climbed out into the general access system. I think I audibly went "What the fuck". Not long after I crawled back into his room and died.

I don't know why, but this type of music has represented radiation to me. Now, of course that's not what this song is about, but the sound and general style of this song makes me think of the erratic, invisible, static, and deadly nature of radiation, like radiation distorting sound in a video or distorting film. There is also the windy-ish sound to this type of music that reminds me of the nuclear disaster at Chernobyl in the first hours of the explosion, with smoke billowing out the top with extreme winds from fire. It's sad, somber, erratic, and deadly.

[@bull1085]

Perhaps you confuse radiation with torment? This song (to me) conveys pain cycled a thousand times, in a thousand ways. Pain so immense, so hellish, that your very body becomes foreign to you. Pain so unbearable that you gnash your teeth and yell to the sky “what did I do to deserve this?” Radiation poisoning causes this. Your cells losing the ability to discern their function, forgetting to undergo mitosis. Other cells forget when to stop, and begin replicating over, and over, and over again. Your very body you so desperately rely on, becoming your very own torture chamber. It makes sense if they base it on radiation, as it’s one method of torture that humans have made that turned out entirely hellish.

I had probably the best singleplayer game experience with this song I was really struggling with 5P's "platfroming section" aka, avoidng all of the daddy long legs in the anti grav and after a while of getting nowhere, i finally get somewhere safe. That's when the rain starts. I didn't really know where to go, or if there even was another shelter in 5P. I start panicking, thinking: "I can't die now, it took me so long to get here!" And that's when this song starts kicking in. I start hearing the nightmare-ish sounds of the Random Gods, slowly transitioning into Sundown, the main theme. I arrive at the General Systems Bus, thinking, that there's no way i can survive. I fly from room to room. And as the rain grows louder, so does the song. As the rain grows more violent, so does the song. I crash through what seems like walls of boxes like nothing. The rain starts tossing me around, and when all hope was lost, I entered just another pipe. I arrive at 5P, in shock and awe. The rain stops, the song stops, silence. Just 5P speaking gibberish. This has got to be the best feeling i experienced in gaming. The sheer relief i felt after everything went silent is insane. 10/10 game, would struggle to survive in an ecosystem again.

I just realized something so there's 4 versions of this song (Random Gods, Moondown, Sundown and Pictures of the past) and 4 iterators Random Gods is for Pebbles Moondown is for Moon so i think that Sundown is for Suns and Pictures of the past is for NSH

[@pezvonpez]

no you're wrong I think

[@TheActualMrLink]

Many times, games and other media try to make you feel like you’re in the presence of gods. How strange that a machine was the only thing to truly sell me on the premise.

slugcat: just endured dangerously passing by extremely dangerous spider slime creatures and blue stovetops, got killed like five times and is extremely tired of this reward: ear damage and "fuck you, go west, get the hell out"

[@purerandomnessfan]

It feels so different based off of perspective. 1: if you go from the bottom of five pebbles to the top, you get played this music to show how strange this place is, and that something is further ahead and when teh music abruptly stops, you know why. 2 - going from top to down, you meet five pebbles, the climb from the wall paid off. You meet the hopeless god and after going down the pipe, with instructions to death, you realise how tragic this is after the song plays.

That moment this started playing in my game I was like.... I think I don't want to be here.... Uhm.... don't mind me i'll just make a sharp turn by the zappers and head back to daddy thank you very much.

"THESE EDIBLES AIN'T SHI-"

[@Brightgalrs]

I love how loud this is in-game. And then you go into the main room and it's even louder. The visuals do a similar thing where it goes from incomprehensible to overwhelming. That fake-out gets me every time.

[@BinChimken]

I will play this track whenever I'm working, just like Pebbles. It will either give me a headache to make me stop, or I'll stop to dance.

[@vickypedia1308]

I interpret this as the sound of Pebble's system whirring and buzzing as it works. We're near the chamber of Pebbles himself, and we can loudly hear the machine we're inside of as we approach.

[@squeaky1963]

My go to song for focus and relaxation

Everyone be quiet, he’s thinking.

[@sootsketch430]

Along with other songs that have the motif as Random Gods does, they all seem to share a similar theme: that of regret. Random Gods for Five Pebbles, Sundown as simply the beginning of it, the regret woven through the timeline, Moondown being Looks to the Moon’s regrets over what she did and didn’t do, Deep Light and Pictures of the Past both angling toward the regrets of Survivor and Monk among other slugcats, the regrets in life and possibly regrets in ascending. Even in Downpour, Satellite, which plays at the end of Spearmaster’s campaign, ties into not just Spearmaster, but Moon’s, Suns’, NSH’s, and Pebbles’ regret as well. However, Random Gods in particular expresses a very different feeling. Anger and frustration, but also sadness, as Pebbles clearly feels. This song is one of the most emotional songs for me. I can almost feel quite the pain and emotions Five Pebbles had gone through in his arc of the story. And in the end, he never truly got to apologize to anyone other than Moon. He was afraid of what the others would say if he ever tried to open communications again, so he didn’t, for fear of losing exactly what he had already lost as a result of that. All the regrets he had set himself up to have waver through this song… all the regrets of a random god.

While we all know Sundown is slugcat's theme and Moondown is Moon's, this is the only other song that uses Sundown's chorus and is also the theme of the third and final story essential character. Sun and Moon's themes are very melancholic, as befitting of their characters, while Pebble's here is flat in tone except when playing Sundown's chorus, and is always distorted as it plays - a reflection of his own rot and corruption.

[@RainLandSociety]

Deep Light actually also uses Sundown and includes few aspects of Pictures of the Past.

I haven't played or interacted with rain world outside of hearing this song now and it still invokes some sort of deep emotional response, which alone is enough for me to go get it

[@Ihazkirbro]

endlessly processing... as technology advanced, so too did mankinds need to alleviate themselves from the burden of the cycle. the gods they may have worshipped no longer had meaning, prayer had no purpose in this world, hope meant nothing... they deemed it necessary to create their own gods, random gods for random people with random hopes, ones to assist them with answering the question. though man knew they needed to ascend, they did not care to know if their creations, their saviors wanted to go with them... and so when the question was answered, they were left behind... endlessly processing...

[@azzurradurigon1945]

What i'd give for a musician to analyze this completely without context, like some have done for games like undertale.

This song is excruciatingly underrated. It makes me tear up, makes me angry, it helps me think, it makes me lose myself in my thoughts. By far my favorite video game ost of all time.
