Phazon: Metroid Saga (Full Album) - ROZEN

[@Ogre32890]

"Our research teams have isolated the energy conduits that run from the invasive twin mandibles to the energy core in the creature's quadripartite nucleus, but the manner in which a Metroid actually extracts the life force from its prey remains an utter mystery. The victim does not lose blood or any other vital fluids, and yet the Metroid extracts energy; identifying this energy is our central problem. It takes no physical form, and yet without it, the victim dies."

[@MartinB_Art_Design]

A not so pleasant way of saying they suck out your soul lol

[@jameshobbsiv4040]

After the release of Samus Returns and Dread, and the lore drops in those titles, it's the current theory that it's primarily Aeon Energy that they suck out. And yes, that implies that it exists in all lifeforms, not simply those of SR-388. SR-388 just happens to have an abundance of it. In other words, the running theory is that Aeon Energy, is essentially quantified Spiritual Energy, and SR-388 was just so teeming with life that it was naturally abundant on that planet.

Hey Rozen, you make incredible and moving renovations to all of our favorite music! I love your interpretations and I listen to them constantly! Thanks so much for creating this and your many other works! Really! Thank you!

[@RozenDJ]

Thank you for the very kind words! 🙏

[@superstrigidae3040]

@@RozenDJ Those are rare from Link.

[@Kinan.Eldari]

I know Rozen always delivers, but damn that Tallon IV Overworld theme 😁

[@scifisyko]

It’s one of my absolute favorite tracks in the whole series and it bums me out so hard that the theme changes later on in the game and never switches back. SO happy to see it get this kind of love from Rozen, I’m over the damn moon listening to it haha

[@vrishnak92]

@@scifisyko that being said, I am very curious as to how he would arrange the second version of the Tallon overworld theme, as it was one of my favorites from the first game

[@samy29987]

The Tallon Overworld arrangement, with the piano, the strings, the choir, the horns, the famous whistle, the grandeur and the awe-inspiring feel of the track was just..... Mesmerizing!!

[@SephirothRyu]

Look at me. You are the Metroid now. Look at me. LOOK AT ME. YOU, are the METROID, NOW!

[@Skarletbun]

Thank you for this, Rozen. It sounds absolutely stunning and this genuinely means a lot to someone who grew up with Metroid Prime.

[@swampert564]

This is slick as hell. Tallon Overworld is absolutely gorgeous. I've always loved the version that only plays early in the game. It always feels wonderfully mysterious and awe-inspiring, like stepping foot on a new world. Its always nice to hear Kraid's Lair get some love, easily one of the best tracks to come out of the NES era. I really hope the big guy is in Prime 4, I know he was just in Dread but it would still be cool.

[@RozenDJ]

Tallon Overworld is one of my favorites from the game

[@scifisyko]

@@RozenDJ I always thought I was the only one, haha - so totally captures the grandeur and mystique of exploration and discovery that often gets overlooked in the rest of the series’ most popular music, but the Tallon IV theme really just gives you the feel that every so often Samus takes just a few moments to pause and appreciate what she’s seeing. …which sucks a little cause usually by the end of the game the planet she’s on is exploding, but you can’t win ‘em all I guess :p

[@ianlarsen3920]

First I found out about a new album from Thomas Bergersen AND THEN a new album from Rozen?! Two releases from two of my favorite artists in the same day?! This is a good day for music!!! I'm loving this album! Rozen, you never cease to amaze me!

[@gameover40567]

This is absolutely amazing!! You make some of the best game covers I've ever heard! Thank you. Thank you so much!

[@cyntalli8850]

Sweet baby chozo, that lower brinstar melody gets me every damn time. Outstanding album man, masterpiece from start to finish!

[@j.p.obregon1415]

Exactly. There is something about that one particular melody. No matter what version of it I hear, it just gets me

[@Phazen]

love the metroid prime boss for the artwork, gonna set aside some time to listen to this in full later!!

[@Masamoone]

Rozen's Music helped me a lot through life, especially killing time during work.

[@NightZ3r0]

'Metroid Prime' @29:08 is a slapper 🔥🔥🙌🔥🔥

[@Raclex13]

Your Lower Brinstar mix is by far the best song on this album. The instrument selection was soooo soothing, and the eighth note pumping to keep the beet moving forward, was beautiful

[@VirusL4D]

My favorite GameCube title getting an extraordinary reimagining of the soundtrack. Simply phenomenal work as always, Rozen! Thank you for this

[@mousycakes]

absolutely amazing!! I got lost in this composition on a fun little trip. thanks so much for the beautiful music again Rozen!!

[@chipman1589]

Metroid has my favorite space music (and deep rock galactic) I always love to hear it and see others giving it some love

[@soupandthunder6018]

An absolute masterpiece of composition and an amazing homage to my favorite game and music. It's fantastic composers like you that inspired me to begin my own musical journey of tributing the video games that shaped my childhood with remixes. Thank you for this.

[@carlosmeza1967]

Such an amazing work! I can"t help but imagine how Metroid Prime 2 and 3 songs would sound on this style, or even some more of Super Metroid. Congrats!

[@Malkierian]

Was very glad to hear that you didn't use up all the best stuff in this video and saved some good ones for the bonus content in the Digital Deluxe. As a huge Metroid fan, two huge thumbs up! Definitely worth the purchase. It's been a while since the goosebumps hit this hard.

[@RozenDJ]

Thank you so much for supporting the Deluxe Edition! It really helps with production costs 🥹

[@cooltimetravel4959]

I cannot express the happiness this music makes me feel, this is amazing and brings back so many memories playing Metroid Prime

[@JorbyTinky]

Metroid is so fucking cool it has 2 themes. Phazon (Metroid Title Theme) and Samus Aran (Samus Aran's Theme) are so iconic, and you pulled off these covers so well by honoring the original compositions while still throwing in your own flavors.

[@kkw-AmadeusArts]

It does make me happy that after so much time, these soundtracks still receive so much love

[@Vladsnake]

After just ten seconds of video: Hitting the "Subscribe" button like hell :D. Metroid music is so damn good than you can remaster it, remake it, version it, add your own thing to it, and still rocks. This saga is a legend. Gotta check your other works soon, pal. Thanks for this.

[@Knurlurzhad]

I knew this album would be killer on announcement and HERE WE ARE BABYYYYYYYY Absolute 10/10

[@emanuelsama6397]

this is a master piece.

[@atlas16198]

9:02 i can't stop listening to this part. the decision to use synths instead of choir for the melody is so impactful

[@emmadouglas5768]

Every track gets me so pumped, this is awesome! thank you so much Mr. ROZEN!👍💛

[@b0rgerRAMMY]

Oh lawd Magmoor Caverns just hits so different, so goooood

[@misssupersaiyan2905]

will always remember exploring magmoor caverns for the first time, literally bobbing my head to the beat the whole time.

[@RobSwizz1e]

Magmoor Caverns goes so hard with the vocals! I love it!

[@gustavosalasviveros290]

This is amazing the magmoor cavers blow my mind. Im from the old school gamer and this music esta muy chingona

[@danielmajor3777]

Thanks for making this and sharing it with us.

[@linksmith4923]

This is amazing! You gotta make a part 2 of this album! I need more Metroid!

[@isaacclarke8945]

Wow, amazing!

Je reviens tous les jours ici c'est tellement incroyable, vive Metroid

[@noirua]

How am I only just now seeing this? Amazing remixes!

[@nathanberry5828]

the joy of seeing a new vid from Rozen

[@Squiddon64]

This Is Requiem, jokes aside, as an incredibly enthusiastic metroid fanatic, these song remakes perfectly capture the essence of my nostalgia. Like, they make me just want to make a metroid campaign in DnD lmao.

[@RedSpade37]

The chills I got from just seeing this recommended, and the fact that it's new, were so intense! Your version of Stone Tower Temple helped me so much! And now, Metroid! Let us begin!

[@xcynicalreasonsx]

This is extraordinary! It feels like a live performance from a symphony.

[@peachcloudx1672]

this was amazing from start to finish! the meta ridley rendition was out of this world!! bravo!

[@frannydai]

Great production on this. Tallon IV Overworld is 👌. The elegant piano, the subtle vocals, the theremin-like synths.. so good! I really hope you work with music professionally--you definitely have the skill for it.

[@jplayah5264]

This whole thing is so absurdly good. Every moment of every track.

[@arctr00perecho]

The legend is back! Ty Rozen

[@variaproject]

well now this is NEAT

[@NaviGooseOfTheSmol]

Just the right amount of synth and orchestration👌. I wished there were more Metroid reorchestrations out there.

[@noahboddy1484]

9:05 What is being said in the background? It sounds like someone whispering "Samus" but I cant be sure. It honestly sounds like more than one word is being said. (You really have to turn up your volume and listen.)

[@StarGreg]

I like the image. Just realized it makes the outline of a Metroid

[@noababoa7243]

I always love your takes on video game soundtracks. To see you finally do an album for Metroid, the game series that originally got me into gaming is super awesome. And you did not disappoint! Amazing album, Rozen! Thank you so much for this!

[@florentlambert6685]

Amazing work, great job sir !!!

[@MakeshiftGent]

Been waiting for this all month. Im so hyped

[@landance1936]

Amazing stuff as always! Love your work!

[@30Kur0]

[@DwayneStory]

OMG! ABSOLUTELY amazing listening to the bonus tracks from the DD and I strongly recommend it to any Metroid gamer! Truly outstanding!!

[@pjs232]

Pretty much all top tier tracks in here, nice job on this!

[@Irrelevance25]

Thanks a lot, Rozen. I bought it too. Just so impressive. Wow.

[@andrewsinclair7839]

THE KING IS BACK!!!!!!!!!

[@Pirabit943]

YES ANOTHER ROZEN DROP. God damn it goes hard too.

[@Luigi-194]

Hey man, love your work, always have. It's just that epic, glorious, beautiful, and overall high-quality stuff that never gets old. Especially your Zelda stuff, which unironically is one of my most listened pieces I have ever heard. Though, I have always wondered if you wanted to make Mario Galaxy stuff if possible, cause your version would interest me very much. But anyway, your work is very inspiring and helps me a lot. Greetings

[@michaelharrington5860]

Feel like this was made just for me. Great job!

[@JasonCummer]

Second song Samus comes on and I can't give a second like Aaahhh, agony. Excellent music.

[@64bitcrafts]

Fantastic composition. It's going to be the first in a while since Metroid Metal's Varia Suite that I'll have to go out of my way to ad to my library.

[@viktorm9401]

The Tallon IV Overworld track here is pure bliss! I love the original version but this somehow makes it even more awesome. I really hope there will be a follow-up to this fantastic album. Now that the Tallon IV Overworld track has been given the royal treatment, other tracks that come to mind, which would have been truly wonderful to hear in Rozen's somber, epic and mysterious style would be: Metroid Prime: Crashed Frigate Orpheon. Metroid Prime 2: Echoes: Sanctuary Fortress. Metroid Prime 3: Corruption: SkyTown and the Credits track but without the spoken dialogue.

[@FreQuenczy]

Will be playing this on my way to pick up Prime 4 (whenever it releases).

[@motion_deep]

Phenomenal arrangement!

[@robstefani9853]

I'm definitely going to buy the deluxe now!

[@spiralknighter5227]

Just found this album, absolutely love it. Anybody know if there are any plans for a vinyl release like some of the others?

[@RozenDJ]

There will be a vinyl for this, sometime soon!

[@kittykaidoodles796]

Absolutely phenomenal work

[@skyred3300]

Incroyable ❤️

[@nickonfaith_music129]

cool as hell! love these renditions!

[@FiggsNeughton]

"Set phazons to stun." "Sir, we're being phazered by the enemy!!!!!!" Chills every time I think of those moments from Metroid...

[@harrisonwild9333]

That Lower Brinstar is a viiiiiibe

[@JohnSmith-lt8sz]

With a music this good, the movie writes itself !

[@TheBlindRaven]

love love this! # 4 could also be Torvus submerged temple :). If they don't allow you to make the music for Metroid Prime 4 I will be sad. Or at least allow you to help.

[@zappcry]

Absolute Masterpiece!

[@StarScapesOG]

So.... have they contacted you about composing for a metroid movie yet? They should at least line that up...

[@smallesttaz4518]

Thank you Rozen!!

[@GraveRave]

One word: Wow!

[@ben8883]

Absolutely amazing.

[@edHunter5465]

[@KnightXeran]

This is really good 👍

[@firebirdstark]

This is awesome, love it

[@Ragermaze]

One of best remix of Metroid Prime! Very strong like music

[@tom-5230]

I like how the beginning of Meta Ridley sounds like the Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory Theme :D

[@Break7801]

Beautiful!! ❤🎉

[@subjectomega5767]

this is sick!!

[@xtreemgamer129]

this is the soundtrack a metroid movie would use

[@Ironeagle21]

Mercury Steam/nintendo needs to hire this guy to work on the music if they make any future metroid titles!

[@Kid_illithid]

Damn just get this guy when they make a Metroid movie 😯 this was awesome

[@Ram-hc4hr]

I need more!!

[@LyricsVideo4U]

00:25 Nicee!

The first track is how I imagine Metroid prime 4 starting screen music to sound 💪
