Wow! the way this theme uses greatly stylistic elements from baroque and clasical music it's OUTSTANDING, certainly didn't know this theme was about Fischl and her domain battle theme, the music of Genshin Impact is infinite!
Is this music composed by Yu-Peng Chen again?

You're absolutely correct about the Van Gogh inspiration, this event in the game has a good chunk taken from the Starry Night painting

[@menma9349]

they literally added the sky from a van Gogh painting to Mona's dungeon (Mona's mirage it calls) and it looked amazing

[@anry5553]

Honkai Impact 3rd literally have an artist character whose artstyle and art pieces are a clear reference to van-gogh! gosh i love things like these

[@KragV]

It's classic, it's modern, it's a waltz, it's a tango, it's a voyage... there are so many layers to this track

[@Agnisuriya]

They added fischl theme music too in the mix since it's her domain

[@kazuhah1743]

for reference: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g2WkZ3h6l7yasKM

[@brliron6538]

To answer your question in the description: I don't think so. They say it's composed by Yu-Peng Chen and Yijun Jiang, and arranged by Yijun Jiang. What I understand from this is that Yu-Peng Chen composed Ouvertüre der ewigen Nacht and Sieh an, mein Sommernachtgarten! (Fischl's character demo and her story trailer), and Yijun Jiang took inspiration from these to compose Die Mittsommernacht-Fantasie.

[@yqisq6966]

Fischl's domain. One in a life time experience. Literally...

[@spymadmax584]

This is the level of quality of music when skilled composers are given unlimited budget 😂😂

[@yolod.gachagamer]

Genuinely can’t wait for this summer’s summer event. Hopefully it’s as amazing as last year’s

[@hayond656]

Wow... Last Summer event feels so recent to me

[@zeromailss]

bro yall should try to listen to the first summer event OST "What a hopeful Voyage" or "Vast and Blue" or just search for their compilation in youtube When I listen to the summer OST two months after it ends it feels so nostalgic like it happen years ago yet now I listen to it again and it feels like it just happen yesterday even tho it is almost 2 years. Seriously Hoyo Mix is such a legend

[@18_moch.januarakbar17]

That's why I kinda disappointed if 3.8 is not GAA but Spoiler Penumbra ( a new area)

[@fancymustache3793]

@@18_moch.januarakbar17 to be fair they cant keep using the same bunch of islands forever theres only so much you can change without juet completely remodeling the area and thus no longer being the GAA

[@HenSt-gz7qj]

Summer event can also means another inazuma summer festival, or they'll use the chance to open up new area in Mondstadt (the northern port?) for summer event

[@Ricky71012]

This has to be like one of my favs out of all genshin music. Such a shame that it was only used once in a temporary event

[@skipclassfordota3361]

lol its ok we can hear it on youtube forever

[@aoihitori]

It's distributed free so you could hear it even on Spotify like I always do.

[@Ricky71012]

@@aoihitori yeah that's true but I meant like new players won't get to experience it unless an old player tells them about it

[@freewontons]

@@Ricky71012 you never know, they did add a replay event tab in star rail. Maybe they will add that when Fontaine comes 🙏

[@aethernity8270]

I am really hoping they play this in next genshin concert 😢i wanna se this live so much

[@kirro1333]

Might be difficult since the electric guitar would overpower the orchestra maybe?

[@aquajasper]

@@kirro1333 How so? You can change the volume, I don't see how it would be so different from this version

[@stan6477]

@@kirro1333 Azdaha battle music was performed live. the electric guitar was greatly blended in

[@Jhulian_R]

Bonus: At 5:13 you can hear a: Trill, which is a musical ornament consisting of a rapid alternation between two adjacent notes. It's a type of embelishment predominant in (again) baroque music! 🤩 This composers are just... 🤯🤯!

[@lysfranc8782]

Keep in mind that every ost in Genshin are created by only one person. So amazing !

[@stawpnagd7820]

@@lysfranc8782 This is not true, there’s an entire team (HOYO-MiX) that you can even see in some of hoyo’s official videos on behind the scenes of the music of genshin. There’s also credits in the description of some osts which actually rotates the people working on it. For example, some of the newer character demo osts are actually composed without Chen Yupeng. Personally I suspect there’s like a jazz person whose influence can be seen in Layla’s and Yelan’s theme, and another person (or maybe an entire group) focused on trap beats like in Ayato/Raiden/Wanderer themes. Ayato’s for example is completely composed and arranged by Yuan Dimeng, while Raiden has Yupeng’s contribution (not that surprising). Cyno and Yelan both have Zhao Xin as composer although Dimeng also co-composed and is the arranger for Yelan’s theme. Finally, the composer and arranger for Layla’s theme is You Peijia. All of these people are parts of HOYO-MiX.

[@hayond656]

@@stawpnagd7820 People like to act like Yu-Peng Chen is the only person working on Genshin's Music

The composer itself even not human 😁 im sorry mr. Yuu-pheng-chen 😁

@@stawpnagd7820 gosh did know that. You broke my day… just kidding, it’s still pretty impressive. Thanks for the infos

[@yolod.gachagamer]

BRO YES THIS THEME IS GOATED

[@aoihitori]

Hoyo: "Ok guys, just make an Event Music." Hoyomix&YuPengChen: "Ok"

[@yolod.gachagamer]

What I would do for Gilded Runner , since it’s a regional battle theme, you should react to it in a reaction series with the other main regional battle themes. Mainly suggesting this because each of the regional themes have similar motifs to one another and relate to eachother beautifully Mondstadt (Photon of Fluctuation, His Resolution, and Rite of Battle) Dragonspine *part of mondstadt* (All-Conquering tide) Liyue (Rapid as Wildfires, Chasing the Torrents, and Gallant Challenge) The Chasm *part of Liyue* (irresistible force, tremor of menace, seething animosity, and inevitable conflict) Inazuma (Overlord of the Thunderstorm, Fiery Persuit, against the Invisible Net, and Duel in the Mist) Enkanomiya *part of inazuma* (Combat Beneath the Waves, and Undersea Encounters) Sumeru (Swirls of the Stream, Rhymes of Vales, Gilded Runner, and Jolts in the Forest) Sumeru Desert *part of Sumeru* (Swirls of Shamshir, and Great Red Sand battle themes 2, 3, and 4)

[@menma9349]

The Chasm battle themes is incredible. When I first heard one of the melodies (it was Tremor of menace, I believe), I did something I had never done before in this game - I turned off all the effects and dialogues, leaving only the music so that nothing would distract me from the beautiful compositions and often deliberately delayed the fight to hear the music more often Enkanomiya's music is also beautiful. She gives me the creeps, she's so good. It is also interesting that the music there is more similar to European, although the region is literally under the Inazuma, which has a Japanese setting. It was an interesting dissonance in what I expected and what I got Duel in the Mist I think it's better to watch in the official "live" performance. Pleasure is not only for the ears, but also for the eyes for me Of the above my favorites is Tremor of menace, Inevitable conflict, Combat Beneath the Waves, Duel in the Mist

[@kasuha]

Ship picture was misleading it's just an illustration for this whole OST album. Main protagonist around which this song is revolving is a girl pretending/dreaming about being a princess and it all happens in a medieval style castle that's product of her dreams. The instruments like the harpsichord, organ, bells, strings, and even guitars fit all of that exceptionally well.

[@zeromailss]

Definitely my fav limited time music in the game Honestly that whole second summer event was one of the best event overall in the game, the story, the characters, the world region, the minigame, the side story and mission. Everything was really good and yet it only lasted for one patch before it is gone forever what the fuck, and the first summer event was also really good tho not as much as the second one, that is also gone too. I swear I feel so bad for all the new genshin player who miss all the limited time event, so stupid that is even a concept, I can understand limited time reward for free weapon/character and resource but a whole ass region and storyline to be limited is stupid

[@thefrickenchicken1417]

To this day, this is still my favorite OST from the game. Nothing even comes close. Hits so unnecessarily hard!

[@AnimusVolare]

Rosalyne's fight comes close but I agree!

[@banhadavirus2862]

My favorite track from the whole game,this event leave a deep and huge mark on my heart that even almost a whole year it still give me chills like the first time I listen it while fighting a random small fry enemy XD (english not my main language sorry if I did a mistake somewhere~)

[@yolod.gachagamer]

10:28 bro I never knew I needed this

[@user-jt9ql6yn7f]

I highly recommend listening to Tartaglia boss theme!:3 I think you will really like it!!❤❤❤

[@thedot9253]

You're such a real one for letting the songs go through entirely in your first hearing! Just discovered you my man and I'm about to binge some stuff!!

[@alteragosagin4211]

OH I just wanted to recomend this, I love listening to this so much you have no idea

[@MrMonklad]

This is my favorite Genshin impact track, I literally bought the soundtrack that contained this song because I saw it was on it. Since then I've actually bought all the genshin soundtracks that have been released, Hoyoverse taking my money even when im not pulling in Genshin impact LOL. 😂

[@felicitous_felix]

Definitely my favorite GI track! I always get so hyper when it introduces the electric guitar into the mix, makes me so happy!

[@patrycja2666]

Yes I couldnt wait for your reaction to this music ❤😊

[@Temporal72]

Whoa!!!! I Haven't heard that OST before (or played the game haha, but I've heard about it) I love how you express yourself about music, you can tell all the passion that you have for it!! Do more stuff with the guitar, like you say "WHAT A MAN!"

[@Jhulian_R]

Thank you my friend! ❤️ It'd be nice if more people appreciated the guitar parts as you do 😂

[@mariuspuiu9555]

Incredible song. I really want it back in the game :)

[@Scatterblades]

Just saw this today. Thank you. This music still remains the best music in genshin for me thus far, or maybe I'm just in love with baroque in general. 😂 The music itself is simple, they just repeat the note again and again but with buildup with other instruments joining one by one, making the whole music feels like evolving every second until it reaches the peak, and the guitar kicks in. This is just crazy and befitting fischl's mirage as well. Her mirage is basically something out of a persona game, about self-acceptance 😂

[@karl1628]

Finally someone who listen the whole song first then breakdown it. Goshh lobe your reactionnn!

[@edi9892]

It's only sad that this melody is unlikely to return to the game as it was the battle theme of minor level in a limited time event... It reminded me of the soundtrack from American McGee's Alice and maybe flamenco. All blended with classic and a bit of Gothic rock (like the intro to Angel, the Buffy spinoff).

[@Teekls]

MY FAVOURITE THEMEEE

[@blueiguana430]

Reminds me strangely of hotel california when the electric guitar comes in for some reason..? holy shit this is one of my absolute fav piece of music from genshin. goosebumps all over.

[@PerfectDarkcontrol]

MHY: Mister Chen, we need a battle theme for Fischl. But it can be as simple as possible. It will only be for a short time available and players will at most hear the first 30 sec of it Yu-Peng Chen: _didn't hear anything anymore after the keywords battle theme and Fischl_ Say no more!!! _Starts composing enthusiastically_ MHY: But mister Chen ... that's unnecessary ... it will only be 6 weeks online ... Why??? _Yu-Peng Chen doesn't even react anymore, he is scribbling with his feather on the paper so fast, that it catches fire and writes even faster_ Yeah, that's exactly how I imagine this song came to be 😂

[@SereNekoChan]

You REALLY should reach to Andrius theme, its incredible

[@haloelite2720]

Just a personal recommendation but you could try listening too the Sumeru Concert, it goes pretty hard

[@toqhapugarypacheco]

Gilded Runner from Sumeru Battles, recommended

[@NaviJ98]

0:14 pretty good job, considering the language barrier

[@Saryn.]

Hey man unrelated to the music and analysis but I see a WSU basketball hoop on your wall, did you go to WSU? I plan on going there in August which is why I'm asking! Amazing video btw :D

[@Jhulian_R]

Hi, interesting you caught that detail, not only I didn't study at WSU, nor have been there but I didn't even know it was a WSU hoop until now 🙈, nonetheless wish you the best luck there!

Quite well pronounced.
