Xenoblade Music is GREAT! | "Gaur Plain" Reaction

[@RaeSig]

It's interesting you mentioned Chrono Cross, because Chrono Cross' composer Yasunori Mitsuda also composed for the first Xeno franchises: Xenogears and Xenosaga. As a result, Xenoblade's creative team believed Mitsuda's style was important to the game's DNA and many of its composition team were inspired by Mitsuda's work. Mitsuda also returned to compose Xenoblade 1's credits music, and composed a LOT for Xenoblade 2 and 3!

Xenoblade music does everything that old gaming music did that makes my brain fill up with dopamine. It's so nostalgic and yet groundbreaking at the same time.

0:17 First way you said it was right.

I love how bombastic and energetic this piece is, as well as how relaxing it feels. Even after four unique games, this song maintains its status as an iconic representation of the franchise. It's just that powerful of an area theme. Easily one of my favorite works across any video game soundtrack.

This track plays in the first open world area that was truly massive to explore

[@SolitarySaturn]

Just started a play through here on the channel so I am excited to experience it!

I love shining light on tracks that deserve more attention. So thank you for these suggestions!

[@LemonAide132]

Glad you enjoyed it! If you’re liking Xenoblade songs, then strap in-there are so many more good ones out there. My personal recommendations for more Xenoblade 1 music are “Unfinished Business” and “Satorl Marsh - Night”. Both area great and, to the best of my knowledge, the same in both the original and XCDE.

[@SolitarySaturn]

I'll add these to the list to check out :)

[@JessesAuditorium]

YES

[@SolitarySaturn]

YES indeed! :)

[@lockekappa500]

Hey Saturn! Happy to have you back! Recently I've come across some incredible game music, definitely check Celeste - Resurrections out. Probably one of the best gaming OSTs of all time! Glad you're loving these Xenoblade songs also!

[@SolitarySaturn]

Thank you! I will add it to the list!

[@Xord499]

Nice reaction! Some recommandations: Xenoblade Chronicles - Zanza the devine (original version) Xenoblade Chronicles 3 - You Will Know Our Names - Finale Xenoblade Chronicles 3 - Redeem the future - Finale Ys ix - Cloaca Maxima

[@SolitarySaturn]

Thanks for the recommendations and thanks for checking out the video!

[@Nintendo_Wolf]

I wonder if you'd like to listen to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe music 🤔

[@SolitarySaturn]

Of course! Let me know if you have any recommendations.

[@Nintendo_Wolf]

@@SolitarySaturn Do you have the game? They have a jukebox in-game! There's 96 courses in the game, so I don't know if you'd be down to listen to then all... Lol Do you want only specific tracks to listen to or what?

[@SolitarySaturn]

@@Nintendo_Wolf I don't own the game. Maybe just recommend me one or two of your favorites :) Thanks!

[@Nintendo_Wolf]

@@SolitarySaturn Gotcha! Let's see... I'll include 4 just in case! 1. GBA Cheese Land (Anything but TZ Gaming because he includes the frontrunning version, which means when you're in 1st place an added beat is included. So DO NOT listen to Taz Gaming's upload lol) 2. Tour Singapore Speedway Medley (TZ Gaming's channel) 3. Wii Rainbow Road (TZ Gaming) 4. Moonview Highway Medley (You'll find it on TZ Gaming's channel. He uploads music from the game) Just remember to keep in mind that these tracks are from Mario Kart 8 Deluxe specifically.

[@Nintendo_Wolf]

@@SolitarySaturn Okay for Singapore Speedway listen to the one uploaded by RontoS not TZ Gaming. Didn't realize he included the frontrunning version in that medley. So to reiterate: GBA Cheese Land (The first thing that shows up should work.) Tour Singapore Speedway Medley (RontoS) Wii Rainbow Road (TZ Gaming) Moonview Highway Medley (TZ Gaming)
