Morrowind Soundtrack: Extended Theme (Nerevar Rising + Reprise)

- A combination of both theme tracks (01 + 21) seamlessly crossfaded. Some manual volume adjustments have been made bit-by-bit.
I do not own this music. I only edited it.
2003, in middle school, my dad comes home with this game "huh the cover looks cool, try it out". From then on my life changed...
It's the game of my life also. The best.
The one and only. It was the game of me and my brother. He played the game and i watched it and commented it. Sooo...he was the first "Let's Player" for me ;)
@@Scaya117 thats the best type of lets play
For me it was my little bro. He introduced this game back in 2012. Not long after that, there are flying anthromorphic cat above Vivec cantons in my laptop screen hahaha. Good times
Mine was when my mom was buying my dad the original Xbox for Christmas way back in 2003 and told me to pick out a game for myself. I picked this one out and same - life forever changed!
I just now realized that the drumming is the heart of lorkhan beating under red mountain
Love this
Cool!
Oh you fucking genius, you live up to your namesake. Very cool beans of you.
Holy shit
Yep, and that's how we know that despite its physical non-presence, it continues to beat ever on post-Morrowind.
Fun fact: The words in daedric on the sides, top and bottom of the logo spell the names of the 6 houses of Morrowind in daedric.
i love how the elder scrolls has these small secrets in and outside there games
The six houses, not only the three you are allowed to join.
This game is so perfect.
Fun fact: The Steel Plate armor in Skyrim has deadric text on it's helm that reads :"NORD PLATE NORD PLATE"
@sarcastic minecrafter Redoran, Telvani, Hlaalu ( Revoked), Dres, Indoril. But there are others. House Dagoth, the 6th house, no longer existed even at the era of ESO, long before Morrowind. It disappeared after the battle of Red Mountain. In Morrowind House Indoril Is only represented by the player (as Lord Nerevar), the ordinators in Vivec and Mehra Drora in Gnisis temple. House Dres is only mentionned. In ESO you have the 6 houses, House Dagoth is simply called the 6th house. You have a nice quest in Kogoruhn to fight it but Dagoth Ur is not mentionned and Neramo explains that the heart of Lorkhan is a legend ( Obviously he is wrong). Later, in Skyrim age, Morrowind no longer exists after the explosion of the red mountain and the destruction of Vivec city and the dunmers seek refuge where they can.
@@sigertjohansen Little correction: in Skyrim's times Morrowind still exist, but the isle and district of Vvardenfell (the playable area of the Morrowind game, apart from expansion) and other areas on the inland province are uninhabitables (due to the ash poisoning the air).
Also part of the reason many dark elves went away even from the inland area and the partial collapse of other cities (including the capital Mournhold) was the Argonian invasion (to revenge the slaves and the oppression of the past and taking advantage of the natural disaster that left the dark elves weaker).
But the province partialy recover (even if far from its ancient glory)

@The Gucci Banana Oh. That might be a problem.

You nailed it.
Exactly, this makes me miss something that I never had.
When a theme hits with nostalgia when you never even played the damn game.
@The Ostrich Since it was used as base for Oblivion, Skyrim and ESO too, one can always feel nostalgic without even having played Morrowind, just any of the first tree at all
had that with oblivion the first time I played it.
You should play it. It is honestly the best game in the series. I am not saying this out of nostalgia. I played Skyrim and Oblivion first.
Only played it through once. However this theme gives goosebumps even now, almost two decades later.
@@salvatiothemusical8582 Good music is good music. That's why Star Wars was great, Jurassic Park, Interstellar, Lord of the Rings, It matters. It matters just as much if not even more than the visuals and lore. That's why they used it in Oblivion, they can't beat this tune. Would it feel like less if this tune was left out? Probably.
I am such a sucker for orchestral music. While the skyrim theme packs a punch, this is much calmer. I like this a lot.
This theme is the embodiment of the word "Adventure" in music form.
The Skyrim theme is good too.
It also has a sense of wonder which skyrims soundtrack lacked a lot.
Say what you will about Bethesda themselves, Jeremy Soul is a musical genius, and orchestral mastermind. In all my years of gaming, I have not YET found an OST that made me feel the same way all of Soul's TES music makes me feel. Just roaming through The Grazelands while Nerevar Rising plays, or traversing Highland Colovia while Glory of Cyrodiil lightly trills in your ear as you take it all in. Sovengarde plays as you trek onwards toward your final goal, and Ambush blares as you strike the Heart of Lorkhan once then five more.
I fucking adore Jeremy Soul's music, couldn't you tell? And sure, Bethesda fucked up with 76, but because of how amazing the Elder Scrolls series is, even Skyrim st points, I'm fully willing to give them a chance for TES VI, if it's a flop then I trust them no more, but my love and adoration for the TES franchise as a whole will not allow me to turn my back on TES VI.
TL;DR: Jeremy Soul is a fucking genius and I'd TOTALLY suck him off if I could. No homo.

When you make a game music so good that you have to put it also in your two following games, four and nine years later.

When you finally awake but it's actually in a ship that just arrived in Morrowind so you don't have to listen to Ralof talk about Juniper berries for half an hour and can just go and get shanked by an old lady for accidentaly stealing 1 piece of bread, while having the guards stand and watch her run after you with the knife to the edge of town and laugh at your fate.

Man this theme really hits me in the nostalgia.
I really wish this had been remade in the Skyrim engine rather than the endless ports we've been getting.
I hope Skywind gets finished.
Nah man TES needs its own MCC and daggerfall and morrowind both need remasters... Not in the dumbed down creation engine though... Skyrims engine is literally just Morrowinds engine but worse, it's missing the soul.
But I'm going to be really know that how strong hold that you get during the great house questline I would love to be able to use the settlement system from fallout 4 to decorate that shit and actually build up extensions to it.
@@KitKatHexe You mean The Elder Scrolls Anthology?
Hits me in the nostalgia 😂😂😂
Skywind bro. Skywind.
If Morrowind had a movie, you would hear the first half at the beginning. And in the end credits, You would hear both of these just like this.
THATS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING
An entire generation of gamers can be summed up with two soundtracks. Morrowind, and Ocarina.
Lol ran into this song a long time ago listening to TP, WW, and OOT music on Spotify. Never played any elder scrolls game but I still love the music

I'm actually learning this on guitar by ear and it's making me appreciate it more and more, and it's already my favorite theme of all time so it just goes to show how amazing and musically ascending it is
I want this to be played at my funeral!

for anyone who's curious, that word in daedric on the bottom mean "dagoth" (someone replied the translation of the other daedric words)
For anyone who's still interested, the names of all six Great Houses before the betrayal at Red Mountain are on that cover.
Clockwise from the top: "DRES", "INDORIL", "TELVANI", "DAGOTH", "HLAALU", and "REDORAN".

it's amazing how this song fits perfectly for both the beginning and the end of your journey.
That’s soo true. Wonder if all epic orchestral music is like this, or this one is specially fitting to both start and end of journeys
The media hitting us for being one of the violent beings in our society yet never admire one of the masterful and beautiful piece of music by one of the greatest composers out there.
Gamers being violent is just a very loud minority. While they're out hurting people, the rest of us are just chilling and playing games
"Wealth beyond measure, outlander!"
That intro will stick with me for life, or until dementia sets in, lol. The nostalgia for this game always hits hard. My brain definitely associates this with happy moments. While there were some dreams of always running from cliff racers, I never held a grudge. :D
I'm guessing that even in your demented state you're still reliving the feelings you felt with that music back then. :-)
In 2006, I was in my early teens. My Grandfather came home with this game’s cd and a Dog (Husky).
Both my Granddad and that Husky is no more in this world. But this game literally changed my life.
I still have this game installed in EVERY PCs and Laptops that I have. Whenever I play this game, I think about my time with my granddad and my husky.

0:39 - 1:05 is also heard in Skyrim’s theme from around 2:17 - 2:30 (although it sounds faster there) which is probably why it sounds so nostalgic even for people who haven’t played Morrowind. If you can’t hear it go to 0:56 of this theme then bring up the Dragonborn lyrics and sing the part of Skyrim’s theme that says ‘Paaz Keizaal fen kos stin nol bein Alduin jot’ and it’s the exact same melody.
I have never played Morrowind before, so why i'm feeling that good old nostalgia?
I recommend it; really. The stories / quest/ lore and even the spells.... I truly do miss it. What I wouldn't do to "rediscover" for the 1st time. The game can easily immerse you and it's an amazing rpg.
Skywind is pretty close to completion
@@MitchellMcLean1992 That part about immersion.....so! damn! true! I literally LIVED on Vvardenfell for MONTHS.
@Bobby Pork Well in terms of graphics no, but the gameplay, soundtrack and the story is bloody amazing
because it has LOTR vibes
This is one of those themes that is chilling, and not in a horror sense.
This song literally inspires awe in itself. Listening to this whilst playing skyrim, staring wistfully at Red Mountain, really is a vibe
The story about Dagoth Ur and the Sixth House is much better than the story about Alduin and dragonborn.
Morrowind has superior story and worldbuilding, however it is almost better as a collection of lore videos than to acctually play it.
Skyrims mainquest isn't really that interesting but it has vastly better gameplay. Really liked the story with Miraak though.
@@ltloxa1159 Well I would say it has more stable gameplay and properly also far better combat but there is so much crazy stuff you can do in Morrowind like the levitation spell alone that I'm not sure if its right to say the whole gameplay is better.
@@rynobehnke8289 It has been argued to death that Morrowind's combat was more akin to classic RPG in that your character's prowess was dependant on their attributes and skill levels. In Skyrim you can use anything competently from the get-go.
@@enrique6335 still more realistic than hitting someone with a sword and it doing literally nothing. Even with the worst possible edge alignment you’re still gonna knock out or kill the person you’re hitting. Getting hit in the head with a big iron bar (a sword) is not good for one’s health.
i like both, honestly. oblivion is cool too
You think you are over it, so you don't listen to it for two weeks, and then the shivers just have you on the floor as soon as you put it on.
Never played it but you can’t still feel the Dragonborn song in it, to a point it really hits you with a severe sense of grandeur. Absolutely beautiful music.
The first time i played Morrowind i was 12 years old, and still to this day nostalgia hits me like a sledgehammer whenever i hear those first notes from the main theme
Ah, yes, we've been expecting you. You'll have to be recorded before you're officially released. There are a few ways we can do this, and the choice. is. yours.

I've played the three most recent Elder Scrolls games a fair amount of times, of the trio Morrowind is the one I have the least amount of experience and while I played it on the original xbox as a kid, it's only after playing Oblivion and Skyrim that I dedicated any real time Morrowind.
If you grew up with this game and find yourself worried that you're looking at things through nostalgia goggles - rest assured you're not. Even though I have the least amount of time with it, no track from an Elder Scrolls game stirs me like this one with a sense of wonder and curiosity with a good dose of melancholy, and hearing the track again I find myself remembering the echoing whale song of that silt strider in Seeda Neen.
Morrowind leaves you with a lasting impression that Oblivion and Skyrim fail to deliver in such an immediate way. Of the relatively brief time I've spent with the game I have more lasting memories of locations and of atmosphere than the other two, and that alone says something.
For this I have reverence for the title if not nostalgia, I truly believe Elder Scrolls began to lose its way as soon as the art team and world designers began to leave Bethesda. What they created was a fantasy setting that seemed truly novel and unique, while Oblivion and Skyrim rest too heavily on preexisting mythology and fantasy staples that give them both a sense of derivative design that Morrowind manages to avoid while still employing a degree of fantasy call-backs and borrowings from real-world archaeology.
Keep in mind I grew up with Oblivion and to this day very much enjoy Skyrim for what it is and feel that its visual style and art direction were a step back in the right direction despite its other failings. I don't mean to shit on them (I'll squat on Bethesda though), but it's like Morrowind is a completely different IP than the other two.
This was it. Thousands of hours I have spent on this. I am now 25 but I discovered this magnificent game when I was 11. I will never forget it, ever. Also I hope Tathriel will land soon..
This song is so fire. My homie burned the CD back in the day and I played the hell out of this game, went on to buy it and all the expansions for my PC and Xbox
Oh wow splicing the tracks together like that works surprisingly well. Even though they are kinda different styles the spliced on part feels like it's an "evolution" of the original.
I often described the Morrowind theme feeling like a journey, the spliced on part still works in a way as that could be seen as when in the story you are declared the Nerevarine.
Someone gave this a dislike.. meet me on the battlefield coward!! Lol

But hey, so was the Nereverine.
Everytime you hear this song, it makes a connection within your life. Every time you go back to it after that point, you will remember every connection it has made. A lot of musical pieces are like that. This one just... may have been the first one you encountered that had that effect. It's why you're nostalgic.
No that overall is just called nostalgia
Morrowind Theme feels like Dunmer playing orchestra
Oblivion theme feels like Imperial Musical Theatre
Skyrim theme feels like Nordic Mead Hall Song
Most people don't even know that "that elder scrolls theme they put in all their games" is actually called Nerevar Rising. Plebs.
But it kinda is the elder scrolls theme? I don't see your point, the nerevar rising melody is used in other songs in morrowind as well.
you managed to mix this in a way that it perfectly blends to the point where it feels like you're single-handedly becoming the saviour of all dunmer everywhere.

How the same melody can be such different. Here is MUCH more magic and epic than in skyrim variant.
p.s.: God, that was fucking awesome!
This one is actually pretty subtle and melancholic, over the following TES versions they made it more... hollywood blockbuster ish. More is not necessarily better, and they sure added vocals and instruments to it. To me, nothing in these variants has yet to evoke the feeling those solo drums and early violins evoke, like a RISING SUN, WHICH IS THE FREAKING POINT.
I disagree, Skyrim’s theme is just as good
@@vba2469 they fit the games. Do you think this song fits oblivion or Skyrim? NO! The chanting in dovahzuul fits Skyrim and is just as good. But you don’t care about that.

Somehow I think this is the most boss elder scrolls OST however I never played Morrowind.
I always look back to old PC games proudly.
Even for C64 games with nice music.

They should have make Nerevar Rising as you edited. This is beyond great.
I'm going to have this played at my wedding
so beautiful and so sad music, great!
this is the theme song that started the song we know today :''-)
You mean this is the theme that was already finished and perfected.
It's also very similar to GSNOW_B from the Daggerfall soundtrack, so perhaps that's where it truly started.
The reprise sounds like it could be the oblivion version of the tune.
Kinda makes me sad I never got to play this game, but it also gives me something to strive towards doing
I love morrowind I remember years ago playing it for the first time blown away so Kool
And this is the moment I finally realize where I've heard Dovakin before. I must be brain dead.
It's not super obvious, just obvious.
Honestly I didn’t realise how much of the music in Skyrim is from morrowind until I played
It’s soo amazing 😢
Gold Standard. Beautiful. Good tears for good old days
Played this when it came out original Xbox back in the day as a kid and I fell in love with it. I got lucky enough to find it at my local gamecrazy that was connected to a hollywood video when that was still a thing.
Always hits that spot....

To think it's been 20 years since the game first released. Looking back Morrowind was probably the game I went back to the most over the years having played it on and off from the 7th grade all the way to my senior year of high school.

The way the music sounds out at the end of the reprise that kind of reminds of oblivion style music because it is what comes after makes me bawl
