This was a masterpiece of visualising dude :) I swear you just have been getting better and better. Must have taken ages to do this one though! As a motion graphics designer I know how frustrating and long it can take ;w;
Got the information for the visuals and everything about a week ago but only got started about four days ago. Was quite the trip though since I have a lot on my plate so every piece of extra spare time I had this week went into this so far. Would have changed a ton and made it even better if I had more time but for what it's worth it turned out quite good I think!
I tend and prefer to work with programs other than After Effects on larger scale projects. Applications such as Blender, Cinema4D and Nuke get the job done but After Effects is still my go to when it comes to quick last second work like this! Also, send me a link to that Osu beatmap. I want to pass it ;)
Holy crud, you're on Monstercat? I've been listening to Monstercat for ages now, and you're one of my favourite off label producers. This is a dream come true!
This came out so well! Congratulations to you for finally making it into Monstercat; I'm glad you're getting the success you have always deserved :D The visuals on this are stunning as well; I wish the Monstercat video itself would've included them. The amazing artwork and visual effects are only appropriate for an equally spellbinding song. Great work to the both of you! Also, as a side note, I find it oddly adorable that Ephixa's rifle is as big as he is. :p
I have no words... this is one of the few songs whose visuals tell a story too, using the music as companion. You're huge, bossfight and ephixa :D P.D.: Your first step at Monstercat is epic, welcome :D
Perfect mix between both your styles! lol, that penguin and you xD *"Just chilling in space with my friend penguin, Ephixia"* While an entire planet is getting fought by a spaceship xD
Congratulations on getting into Monstercat dude! Since ''Elevatia'' I was waiting for the moment you sign on a label but duuuuude, on my favourite label really? I'm more than happy right now =) Btw I'm going for that million views on Monstercat you know
"Bossfight and Ephixa are chilling around while shit goes down. Bossfight continues drinking his milkshake. The end." Yes. These are official design notes I made. You got it spot on!
I'm was listening to Monstercat for ages. I can't describe how happy I am for you joining them :D... The Monstercat listeners have to witness your other masterpieces.
Congratulations Bossfight! I have honestly been waiting for this day for a while. I'm a huge fan of you. I'm a huge fan of Monstercat. You deserve this.
Ok, it's official. Bossfight is now my favorite artist on UA-cam! I've always LOVED your chiptune style a lot, but these head bangers are absolutely amazing!!!! Keep it up!!!!
*intense fighting and cool stuff happening in space* is how you describe a typical day of a space penguin with an AK47 and a guy wearing a mask that looks like a gecko
This is amazing! I thought this would be the collab with ephixa i heard about somewhere! Also good job on getting on monstercat, I knew you could do it! :)
Huh... Well I guess other people like it, so it's not a problem, but I'm surprised you'd make this the one to go to Monstercat with. I found most of it good of course, but after the Heks EP and Sonder, to me it seems meh by your standards. Like, again if it was anyone else I'd be impressed, but for me you set yourself a very high standard with those. Maybe it's just my taste, but to me this seems shockingly generic dubstep for you, which after your more recent music was the last thing I was expecting. It just feels like your style is gone in this one, and I really liked your experimental and unique style. When I hear Sonder or the Delete remix or anything from the Heks EP, I can tell it's your music. Here, if I didn't know I would not have guessed this was you... The only part I really liked that seemed your style was the bridge after the first drop. The rest of it was "good" but not interesting or new or exciting to me. Maybe that's just 'cause it's a collab, maybe it's just I don't like Ephixa's style, but I can't ignore it. I really don't want this to seem too critical, because this is still high quality, which shows you haven't lost any skill or anything. You are still amazing, but to me, this sounds like it isn't showing your creativity. It's kind of hard to describe all of what's wrong, but I think one of the factors is the lack of detail. The Heks EP and Sonder were especially good at this, there were lots of small parts that came together to form a very immersive atmosphere, which made the music all the more enjoyable. Here it seems to me like the sounds just don't have the nuances some of your other pieces do, it's all very plain to me. Just Synth, random vocal sounds, bass, drums, there. None of the sound effects or extra details some of your other pieces have, besides the little laser sounds, but those aren't atmospheric like the other ones, they're very basic in comparison. I feel like it doesn't cover as many genres as usual too, going back to Mescalink as an example: first 8 bars combines dubstep with classical horror-style Harpsichord, then into soft piano chords, into EDM- style big saw chords into a dubstep/drumstep drop, but with unique and innovative sounds that I can only guess were done with Unison Phase Retriggering, into a future bass bridge; There is so much variety, and I think that's what makes it (drawn with Sonder) my favourite out of all your music. This one just feels: EDM beginning, generic Dusbtep drop, more unique bridge, but then into another generic dubstep drop. I'm sorry if it comes across that I hate this song, because I don't. I'm making a lot of complaints but this why it's so hard to describe what's "wrong" with this song, its mistakes (or at least, what I view as a mistake) at very small and very subtle, but there are a lot of them; and that's what ruins this one for me. Good enough to give a listen, but personally I don't see myself coming back to this one.
Really liked this reply, it's what I'm thinking too. Heks EP was straight fire as well as Sonder, the Delete remix, and Elevatia. I feel like Monstercat has something to do with this and because of the fact that they're a very popular label - right up there with Armada, Owlsa, Ultra, etc. Because of this, I think that artists are less inclined to do "experimental" and odd styles that people really like. This song is great and I really like it, but it's nothing special. Knock 'Em was super weird and I've only listened to it like 4 times but I still at least remember it. It had a vibrant and in-your-face theme that made it memorable. Once again, this is far from bad, and it's actually pretty good as far as first appearances on Monstercat go since most are unimpressive. I did hear a lot of Bossfight in here though and I think it went together fine with Ephixa's style. If Bossfight does plan on doing more Monstercat stuff in the future, then I hope he lets more of his unique style shine through because Monstercat has been in a bit of a dull spot after the Rocket League phase died out. The style is just so different I think it would inspire other creators to experiment a little more 😛
Juhani Urtti Well, I'm 15, so I don't have a job to take me away from my precious internet (although I do have mocks >=(); and I make music too, and I feel like there's a lack of good critique of music on the internet, so I felt I'd be the guy to try and give it... I'm starting to think I'm more known for my reviews than my music... I probably am...
Xperiority _ Well he inspired me, I mean I was already making music and knew I wanted to be unique, but I started really getting into Bossfiht towards the end of a patch where I considered quiting. That was the end of that patch because of the ideas Bossfight's songs filled my head with. I ended up making stuff that starts out like another version of a Bossfiht song, but then I just let whatever happens in terms of creativity happen, giving it its own identity. One of my best pieces, "Totems" was originally like a rip off of the music on the Heks EP, but then started really becoming its own thing
I've been listening to you since like 2011 when VideoGamesAwesome would play your music,and i would listen to Pirate Manners and Wobbly Tooth, Crunchy Apple like every day. It's amazing to see how far you've come now, making it to Monstercat and all; congrats on that by the way! Keep on pumping out killer tracks!
This track is so intense, both your styles are so obvious yet mix together so well, I love this and I’m so hyped you got a Monstercat release!! Just amazing 😍💜
Congrats on making Monstercat my dude. That is a monumental achievement (of course). Also, this song is an abdolute banger!! Fricken amazing my dude. Keep up the amazing work
Has this really epic feel to it and a fluid jive I can't quite explain. That Teminite/Shirobon synth felt really cool and the whole track, drums, Dubstep, vocals, Nock Em-like buildup, everything felt so awesome, powerful, liquid and real :D. Def my fav track from you, 6/5 gonna keep these vibes flowin on repeat for hours XD.
Bossfight literally used to be a small chiptune artist on newgrounds, now he's collaborating with the likes of Ephixa. It feels good to know someone before they became popular.
I'm a bit late to the party but this is absolutely amazing in every way from the song to just the visualizer! everything about this video is just so dang pretty!
Long time Bossfight fan here. Gotta say I really miss the old days, Caps on Hats off days. Never knew why you switched to this new worse style, it makes me sad.
Papa Johns Official I understand. Yeah people change... I like all the bossfight music but this is not the same for everyone. But in any case you can't say it's like made in five minute, still a great work.
Papa Johns Official On top of people changing, those bitbop days were when Bossfight was a band. The band broke up. Bossfight is just one man now and has been for awhile. But you're entitled to your own opinion.
I like how u came up with a space battle and blackhole in space... Matches the song perfectly. ill listen this every time im doing art or playing a game... Thanks for makeing this awsome song ;) i really enjoy it
Just as good as the day I first heard it, such a banger! This deserves much more than what I see it has, Great work, from the both of them, absolute banger.
Best Electro track of the year for me! Was a pleasure working on this banger with you as always!
You too were fantastic as always too and I can't agree more with what what you said! Keep it up Catlinman and Bossfight!
I 💖 it!

Catlinman definitely the best music bossfight ever made!!!
The song is amazing but can we not take a moment and admire the fucking amazing visualizer that goes with it
Hehe thanks. Had a lot of fun on this one. I think you can tell! :)
Etzer
Ikr, visuals are the best
Amazing ikr!

Etzer YES. GD PLAYERS ARE INTO IT.
Can’t find myself
A legends comment under a legendary song with a legendary visualizer on a legendary channel :P
BWOW BWOW BWOW

Okay.
Those visuals made the song even better 😍
The Last drop was just PERFECT

Wish I could have made the Monstercat visuals as well but I understand that they want their own team working on things :)
Hiiiiiiii SirHadoken
Just amazing!
I found you SirHadoken
Fancy seeing you here, SirHadoken
*Oh my god, the song and the background are amazing! You really put effort into this. Congratulations on MonsterCat

Its perfect until you realize the people next to them get fuckin snapped out of existence
@@kazulitheseawing3284 lol this predicted the future.
That penguin is having a really hard time with those french fries
Yeah that's ephixa rip
He doesn't have teeth, give him a break
@MLG Kaktus I just realized that I misinterpreted the original comment so I'm just gonna say yes
@MLG Kaktus are fries fish? No there not. So shut up
@MFischus no shit *
I have no words... this is one of the few songs whose visuals tell a story too, using the music as companion. You're huge, bossfight and ephixa :D
P.D.: Your first step at Monstercat is epic, welcome :D
Perfect mix between both your styles! lol, that penguin and you xD
*"Just chilling in space with my friend penguin, Ephixia"* While an entire planet is getting fought by a spaceship xD
DJ Radiocutter ephixia?
yeah, the penguin :3
Not to mention a freaking black hole...
you mean ephixa...
I thought it was Ephixia at first too, then I realized it was Ephixa.
Congratz on getting onto monstercat boi!
Also Track of the year for me.
who ever made that visualiser plz teach me ur skills
Hotshot raptor Catlinman made them 😍
shes a god
Just press a lot of buttons. At some point you'll end up with something like this. Pretty good.
Woaw ! You're fantastic, i'm glad to know you
it's a coincidence that this was released on the day the 8th Star Wars movie started screenings in most countries.
SylphyNetworks
Lmao
or is it...?
This brings me back nostalgia. But after 6 years its still a banger
Same
2 amazing artists+amazing song+amazing visuals=freaking ear and eyegasm

This is awesome, you and Ephixa worked perfectly together to give us the banger we all needed!
Amazing my mans! Glad your dreams are coming true!
This is such a good song. The visualizer is BEAST. Dude, glad you're getting the recognition you deserve
That penguin:
What the hell are french fries?
Oh yeah,penguin who hasn't heard of french fries is Ephixa
Bossfight : it’s somethin you eat kid
Me: He Can’t Be Called A Kid Because He Has An AK-47
I'm on Subside right now, so I can't find myself in this music right now!
You're the best, Bossfight!
*Entire universe is destroyed*
*Don't give a single shit, continue to eat fries and drinking milkshake*
"Bossfight and Ephixa are chilling around while shit goes down. Bossfight continues drinking his milkshake. The end."
Yes. These are official design notes I made. You got it spot on!

1:25 (epic space battle in the background)
Bossfight: Yeah this happens. Hey Ephixa will you finish your fries?
NercurE lol
Bossfight I am so happy for you making it onto monstercat
So amazing!! 😍
And the background is lit! i really like how it changes as the music goes! Great work both of you. much love ❤❤❤
1:00
The background is so cool!
Also I love how the characters are just chilling and aren't at all phased by the outside.
Монолит XD
Very cool collaboration, Bossfight)
Кто интересно делал этот арт, и о чем он думал когда выставлял туда монолит?
This is so fresh, awesome visuals aswell! Amazing work as usual!
Edit: 2:42 is quite a nice touch
Holy shit, this-t-this isn't legit, way too good, the art is amazing and the music itself *orgasm*
Congratulations Bossfight! I have honestly been waiting for this day for a while. I'm a huge fan of you. I'm a huge fan of Monstercat. You deserve this.
I'm a simple man. I see new Bossfight upload, I click.
Incredible visuals and very good drop, Great work Bossfight and Ephixa! :D

*_Soooo epic
Both the song and the visuals are the best thing I’ve heard from you in 2017. This year has been a good year
*intense fighting and cool stuff happening in space* is how you describe a typical day of a space penguin with an AK47 and a guy wearing a mask that looks like a gecko
Hands down, my favourite bossfight song and art.
Fucking lit
This is amazing! I thought this would be the collab with ephixa i heard about somewhere!
Also good job on getting on monstercat, I knew you could do it! :)
Holy shit, that moment when the video Bossfight uploaded was better than Monstercat's official one.
Welcome to the monstercat family
This is without a doubt my favorite release from you. Also my favorite background art in all of Monstercats releases!

Funny how ironic the title is. It means "to become less intense, violent or severe" lol
This is the best goddamn visualizer I have ever seen!
Whoever created this piece of art... Should get a medal.
Thanks for the kind words man! Really appreciate it! :)

I still keep coming back for this song, that second drop is ecstasy every single time
Wow!! It's Damn Dope! OwO Great Job As Always c: Animation Looks Perfect!

Has this really epic feel to it and a fluid jive I can't quite explain.

Long time Bossfight fan here. Gotta say I really miss the old days, Caps on Hats off days. Never knew why you switched to this new worse style, it makes me sad.

Papa Johns Official
I understand. Yeah people change... I like all the bossfight music but this is not the same for everyone.
But in any case you can't say it's like made in five minute, still a great work.
Papa Johns Official On top of people changing, those bitbop days were when Bossfight was a band. The band broke up. Bossfight is just one man now and has been for awhile. But you're entitled to your own opinion.
I have mixed feelings about that. me feel sorry for his band though
Papa Johns Official are you stupid this is so much better plus he has a song that has been putted in subzero
So epic!!! My new favorite song by Bossfight!!
Very much quality good visuals. Conglats on monstercat.
My favourite track of yours! And that delicious Visualizer!! 11/10 stars!
This is too good for words! I love this track so much! I just wished that I could use it in my geometry dash level.
BTW, congrats on Monstercat!
2:04 to the end of the vid is just stupidly good
Amazing visualizer, Amazing Song
Ok, this is actually good music, it was totally worth the four months wait to hear this
I like how u came up with a space battle and blackhole in space... Matches the song perfectly. ill listen this every time im doing art or playing a game... Thanks for makeing this awsome song ;) i really enjoy it
OMG Bossfight on Monstercat, I knew you will become famous, so proud of you.
The battle has begun 1:24
Just as good as the day I first heard it, such a banger! This deserves much more than what I see it has, Great work, from the both of them, absolute banger.
GG on getting a release on monstercat!
