• Silent Hill Series Son...
"The fear of the blood tends to create the fear for the flesh" -- Silent Hill, 1999
I decided to rerecord this song that I originally uploaded back in 2018. I can do it better justice now, and it deserves it as it's such an iconic song and the de facto theme of the entire Silent Hill franchise. Later on I may redo a couple of other of my older SH covers, just to bring everything up to the same standard.
_In our restless dreams...we see that town..._
*Silent Hill.*
So geht man mit Kulturerbe um.❤❤
Großartige Arbeit
the start of it remidns me of this one dishonered ost
Ya spooked me a bit there when the video went private.
Glad ya got to remake it and you're satisfied with how it turned out now!
amazing !!
2:23 dope !!
Thank you very much. I was afraid you changed the song added some parts from yourself but it's not. It's original and modern clear sound.
The intro for the Silent Hill remake.
It sounds Just so Amazing and nostalgic! You did a great job as Always!!

@@MarkLambertMusic no problem! You're such an artist!
Excellent job on this masterpiece! I can't wait to hear more!
Thanks for listening, and more is coming for sure!

Thankee, M3rShark!
Really well done! Sounds awesome!
Thanks a bunch, Alexander!
Excelente meditación. Gracias por tu dedicación. Ave Lilith!
Beautiful, thank you for doing this. Can't wait until, or if, you get around to Promise. One of my favorites right there.
Redoing Promise is one I've been going back and forth on. Unlike my two other covers that I re-recorded, I remain pretty happy with it. But I am tempted to have another go at it, I can't deny it. So I remain on the hump at the moment. lol
@@MarkLambertMusic Your cover for promise was/is pretty awesome. Always felt like you nailed it with the emotions of that song. A bit off topic, but I was wondering if you'd ever be willing to do some covers for some of the instrumental pieces from the death note ost. Just considering your work with silent hill's music I thought it'd be right up your alley. I think it'd really interesting to hear if so. Thank you for your time.
I'm not familiar with the game, so I went and had a listen to the OST, and wow . . . wonderful music. It's right up there with the best VG music I've heard, and it's largely guitar-driven, which is a definite plus. Since I'm not familiar with the games, care to point out the more popular tracks with fans?
@@MarkLambertMusic L's theme is definitely up there for being a track that is well known by fans. It isn't vgm though, if that's a draw back I apologize. It was actually made for a show. Although from what I've heard the composer of the more electronic/rock centric tracks took inspiration from yamaoka. That can be heard particularly in the track called Light's theme.
Not being from a video game franchise isn't a problem. My most popular video is actually from an old TV series, Airwolf. When I started this channel it was my intention to do more than Silent Hill covers. There are still a couple of more SH tunes I want to do, but I've mostly tapped out that vein, so I'll need to move on to other things regardless.
Top top top. Bestes Spiel mit bester Musik.
This is amazing!
Thanks, Henokh!
Best cover
Hey friend, its me Alex who made that Promise cover..I love this cover you made here. Exspecially the reverb is sooo good. And the whole mix is really good. :)
Thanks Alex! I've gotten a lot of practice doing these SH covers over the years. lol
@@MarkLambertMusic To cover songs improve the skills in mixing. 👍
For sure. The more I record, the more time I spend mixing. These days maybe 20% of my time is spent on setting up the instrumentation and recording the parts, with the remaining 80% on mixing.
@@MarkLambertMusic What is the hardest part for you?
The drums are definitely the part I spend the most time on and would say is the hardest for me: mixing and EQing them and tweaking the performance to sound as human as possible (I use Superior Drummer). I'll quantize the track as everyone does these days, then go through beat by beat and manually tweak the timing to make it feel a little rushed or laid back in certain places. The drums are especially important in the Silent Hill songs that use real drums. They're very loosely played and are recorded with a big, open sound; the hi-hats in particular are low-tuned, splashy and loud in the drum mix. "You're Not Here" is great example of those hi-hats, and I spent a lot of time on my cover of the song trying to get the hi-hats in the same ballpark. All the hi-hats that come with Superior Drummer are voiced much higher and brighter, so I had to individually de-tune and EQ them to get them as close as I could. I'd love to know what brand of hi-hats the drummer used.
Then there are songs like the main theme here where the original was just a simple drum loop, and I added more realistic drums to it. I imagined what the song would sound like played live on stage and tried to capture that.
Konami should hire you as music composer.
phenomenal work!
1:23 It's Spy time bois
Es excelente este cover, de lo mejor de todo el universo!
Muchas gracias por las amables palabras, Victor!
Good job
Thanks, Andrey!
Konami should've gotten you to do the music for the silent hill 2 remake
Thanks Zenster! That'd be a dream gig for sure
Genial.
I use OBS on my streams and I make my own be right and screens and starting soon screens so I thought I'd ask first my friend
jolly good show m8 jolly good show!
hey buddy would it be ok if I used your soundtrek it sounds much better then the real thing way cooler
Great work!
Why was the old one taken down? Copyright issues?
Thanks AA! No copyright issues, I removed it myself because I didn't want to have two versions of the same song on my channel.
@@MarkLambertMusic Oh I see. Sorry, I should've noticed your pinned comment.
I love the older covers and would hate to see them disappear, personally, and I'm sure many others would. But we can only ask...
Which instruments did you use ?
I use my Stratocaster and Breedlove acoustic for all the guitar work. The rest are VSTs (virtual instruments).
The new version is awesome, but I think the old one was a bit more better. So, I really miss for the old version.
P.S. In my opinion, the first Silent Hill is an only game in the series, the other ones aren't Silent Hill. Excuse my bad English, I'm Ukrainian.
That's fair! Musical tastes are subjective, so I knew some people would prefer the old version, which is why I debated with myself over keeping it on here.
The first Silent Hill is my favorite of the series. I think SH2 is a masterpiece, but it didn't give me the same pure horror experience that the first one did. The third one is a fine game, but my least favorite of the original three. I played the fourth one only once, and I can barely remember it. I've avoided all the SH games that came after.
@@MarkLambertMusic Thank you very much for your answer. If it will be interesting to you, I can explain my opinion about SH series.
I take my words back about Silent Hill 3 and Origins. After all, they are a part of the original story. Silent Hill 3 is scary, especially alternative Brookhaven Hospital, I like that. But the town from SH2 (I hope to see the town from SH1) and Harry Mason's sudden death (He is my favorite character) made me feel myself awfully. Unfortunately, I have never played Origins - I've just seen walkthrough.
I completely agree with you about Silent Hill 2 - that game is a masterpiece. However, I can't take it as "Silent Hill" game, but as the other one named "Letter from silent heaven", because it has no connection with SH's universe (except fot the town, of course). And I really like the soundtracks from SH2, Akira Yamaoka is the God of music!
Silent Hill 4 - the worst game, no doubt. I completed it twice and forgot it. Forever.
About the other games - you avoided them. And it was a right decision. You can believe me - you have lost nothing.
I hope, I could write this large text correctly and you understood me. 🙂
My conclusion is - Silent Hill 1 is in my heart forever.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on SH Светлана! I love hearing what others think of this series. I've watched many analysis videos of the games, just get others views on them.
I think SH2 was meant to be its own thing apart from the larger lore. Unfortunately, when the Western developers got a hold of the series, they made every game follow SH2's template: protagonist has a dark past that the town is forcing them to face. And of course they had to shove Pyramid Head into everything.
SH4 had an interesting concept with a lot of potential, but I didn't like the execution at all.
I hate that they're rebooting SH2 and not SH1, which just goes to show that the devs and almost everyone else considers SH2 the heart of the series. Though I don't think they should reboot any of the games.
Какого черта так мало просмотров?
Не знаю. Silent Hill это небольшая ниша. Спасибо за внимание!
My God! That's sounds like an intro music of SH1 remake we'll never see😢
