5:08 I remember Wriothesley showing up for the first time on my screen at this exact moment right just when the "rock" part started, it was iconic. Both 3rd and 4th songs are my favorite, i would be bored af in the fortress if it wasnt for those soundtracks
5:55 since nobody is talking about it here, I’m assuming this is underrated. This is such a good steampunk-esque work song but at the same time a baroque waltz. Beautiful music
The third one is so deep! It's definitely my favorite. It reminds me of everything collapsing and you can't do anything about it... It really hits hard! Truly amazing!
In any other game, this track would make a great main menu theme with those visuals in the background. But for Genshin, it's just one track out of a few that can play in a single area! The amount of fantastic music in this game never ceases to amaze me.
You can take this track and put it straight into Grim Dawn and you'd have no idea. There's several areas in that game that share the same exact tone, even guitar notes. Even the way it's played is the same. I absolutely love it.
4:07 one of my favourite, the music kinda give me feeling that Fortress of Meropide is a prison full of mysteries with cold and harsh environment that can give you despair but at the same time give me longing and safety feels
Absolutely obsessed with the three tracks that play when you're swimming outside the fortress. Reminds me of those old indie point and click games or those 90s computer animation showcases, the emotions that this music evokes are similar.
@@hjt091 that was so much fun to see! you can hear the music change orientation and volume depending on where you stand. and ik that's not new in genshin but i loved it
I used to be a small time BGM composer for games yeeears ago. Gave up due to lack of motivation and progression. This portion of the Fontaine story immediately gave me inspiration to pick it back up. These themes suit the environment to perfection.
4:07 dev: ok, so the place is a prison underwater where the prisoner will never feel the warmth of sunlight for the rest of their life. "that's brutal" *proceed to cook some Doom Metal*
Fontaine reminds me a lot of Bioshock 1, this whole water city aesthetic and especially the Meropide Fortress... Besides, of course, Fontaine is the name of the villain of Bioshock 1, so yeah. These soundtracks are wonderful! The first soundtrack of the Fortress, exactly at 3:05, gives me goosebumps like no other. The Genshin Impact team did a great job with the music choices in this update, honestly Fontaine is the city I loved the most.
I think a huge part of my love for the fortress of meropide quests was the INCREDIBLE soundtracks. I live for game OSTs that really put their whole soul and blood to invoke the right emotions.
4:07 is lovely ohmy god. after reading these comments i feel better abt not being the only one who found it amazing 😭 it gives me such good vibes, its like im in a six of crows movie or smth, a spy movie
I don't think it's possible to convey the vibe of this area through music any better. Such an eerie, yet strangely calm soundtrack. Like quiet acceptance of the shittiness of the place, especially Wriothesley's theme. Honestly that's kind of what life feels like at times
The fortress has hands down the best tracks in the game honestly, every single one of them is just so incredible honesty. Can't stop listening to them, they're just all around perfect and have such a cool atmosphere to them
Helping anyone looking for this banger out (8:50), i took months to find this ost so I dont want ppl to suffer like i did 😭 the name of the ost is crystal curtains!
There it is!!! 5:55 keeps reminding of Alice Madness Returns ❤ it has abit of its vibe especially with what sounded like clocks ticking and the harpsichord and violin playing
The soundtrack in the Meropid fortress reminded me of the theme from the old 80x spy action movies where the hero ends up in the lair of the main villain
That bass drop on Fortress of Meropode 1, quite matching with the theme of Wriothsley, it's also got me to listen closer with the OST and looking for it after finishing the archon quest
5:54 why is no one talking abt this one? It’s super smooth and calming and it just has the little creepy and sinister vibe you would feel in a prison. It makes me feel like I’m also at a royale ball, or I’m listening to a music box.
third one is my favorite. i really just stood in one quiet place and listen to the music. and the ending of the second one is such a banger lmaoo last one is also godly
the style of 4:07 ost remind me alot of some Ragnarok Online leveling maps theme. Maybe bc the fortress have an similar aesthetic with einbroch and the steampunk factory thing
Hoyo-mix delivers once again! I loved all of the Fortress of Meropide soundtracks. It was such a vibe playing through the Archon quest to this music. The rest of Fontaine had nice music don’t get me wrong, but it sounded more like regular classical music and didn’t have the same individuality as these “prison” soundtracks had.
don't know how many other people have noticed this, but the second theme of fortress of meropide has the same melody as 'food glorious food' from the oliver twist movie (: thought this was pretty cool considering everyone in the fortress has the worst food imaginable and i bet they'd be singing this when they actually were lucky enough to get a nice meal lmao
While listening to the fortrtress of Meropide (2) while playing I got extremly reminded of OST from Song of Saya - Schizoprenia. They are such different songs, but the beggining instruments where like a whiplash to me
Waahh my favorite one is 8:50 !! I loved swiming into that area with my newly aquired Neuvillette Lol There's something oddly mysterious that comes with this song, yet i can't point my finger on it :O
Idk why but the first one felt sooo cool with that one scene with Lyney busting in and Wriothesley was just on the stairs It made it feel like some old film, especially since i play with voices turned off since i voice them myself (it helps me focus on the story and it's fun) ALSO i know i say this all the time but i swear these ost are especially inspired by the ggz ost more specifically Cthulhu, Nightmare, Artifacts, and Undersea
I love meropide’s soundtracks a lot 😭 same dark sorrowness as you feel like inazuma but more chill, ambience to hear. Just enjoy the vibe when i do story acts in meropide.
Other places are coming soon ( • ̀ω•́ )✧
You wanna stay in the meropide
What a beautiful soundtrack. Sometimes life really is worth living.
I'm thinking the same when I'm listening to it.
Sadly, it is not in the newest Genshin music album
I would go to prison if this is the theme
yeah. sometimes
right
*5:08* MY GOD. IT HAS NO RIGHT BEING THIS GOOD.
5:08 I remember Wriothesley showing up for the first time on my screen at this exact moment right just when the "rock" part started, it was iconic. Both 3rd and 4th songs are my favorite, i would be bored af in the fortress if it wasnt for those soundtracks
It definitely was what made the fortress more interesting. I’d walk around to just jam to the music
That's epic. He's actually an iconic character.
4:07 As soon as I heard this soundtrack I loved it so I came here
This one reminds of saya no uta ost a bit
Same!
Same💖
@@krujkaomg i literally thought the same
@@krujkaI feel like it's very familiar but idk Sama no Uta so... Hmm maybe it's similar to something else too idk
8:50 is easily the best one on here. Beautiful yet makes you feel for something that has been lost.
The second I ended up here I swear I thought I’d just been transported into a Ghibli film when 9:17 hit
5:55 since nobody is talking about it here, I’m assuming this is underrated. This is such a good steampunk-esque work song but at the same time a baroque waltz. Beautiful music
The third one is so deep! It's definitely my favorite. It reminds me of everything collapsing and you can't do anything about it... It really hits hard! Truly amazing!
Yeah kinda like a max payne vibe
@@lynx7657 yes!
One of my fav
In any other game, this track would make a great main menu theme with those visuals in the background. But for Genshin, it's just one track out of a few that can play in a single area! The amount of fantastic music in this game never ceases to amaze me.

8:50 is so addictive i cannot explore while this plays i have to pause and listen everytime
8:50 is so special to me. so deeply calming
8:50 literally gives me 90's psychedelic vibes. All these tracks are all serving a 90's alternative/soft rock band.
For me, the second 9:17 hit I felt like I was transported into a Ghibli film. Made me stop swimming on the spot just to listen to it
tbh it reminds me of a zelda game i really like so i was absolutely obsessed with this ost
Meropides whole atmosphere is great. it's dark but the people are still doing their best. It's a mix of depression, coldness and a glimmer of hope.
3:33 the electric guitar and then the brass omg they sound soooo and winds make it sound so UGH i love it sm
Straight out of star wars
4:07 one of my favourite, the music kinda give me feeling that Fortress of Meropide is a prison full of mysteries with cold and harsh environment that can give you despair but at the same time give me longing and safety feels
"some one has to get their hands dirty"
Absolutely obsessed with the three tracks that play when you're swimming outside the fortress. Reminds me of those old indie point and click games or those 90s computer animation showcases, the emotions that this music evokes are similar.
It gives massive like weirdcore playlist music its so good honestly
Its isolated but kind of comforting its hard to describe
3:19 - 3:34 is the reason I came here, those chords just scratch the itch in my brain in a way and couldn't possibly hope to explain.
Ever heard of DBZ anime opening?
Yeah it's literally that
3:45 now this is some prison/spy ost and it's amazing
Wish that drum part was extended a bit
That first one is definitly one of my favorite ost of the entire game since the moment I heard it in the 4.1 livestream
Fun fact: It's being played in-game on the gramophone
@@hjt091 that was so much fun to see! you can hear the music change orientation and volume depending on where you stand. and ik that's not new in genshin but i loved it
Theme 3 and 2 are so good. I didn’t even mind them playing on repeat while I was doing the archon quest for several hours straight
I used to be a small time BGM composer for games yeeears ago. Gave up due to lack of motivation and progression. This portion of the Fontaine story immediately gave me inspiration to pick it back up. These themes suit the environment to perfection.
Удачи и успехов тебе ❤
8:30 I'm just in awe with the melodic effect here, it sounds so beautifuln yet gloomy and desperate...
16:20 for anyone curious, i'm pretty sure this plays when the primodial water gate is about to fail
THANK YOU I WAS JUST ABOUT TO ASK BC I PLAY THE GAME WITH MY OWN MUSIC MAJ OF THE TIME
i LOVED that one. got me at the edge of my seat fr
banger song, it needs to become a fight song or something
Absolutely love the parts at 2:19 and 3:34.
I do too. Mind you, those parts definitely feel like some kind of heist or spy flick 😁
@@kozincoddly enough reminded me of Cars 2 scene when Fin and Holley had to escape big ben
4:07
dev: ok, so the place is a prison underwater where the prisoner will never feel the warmth of sunlight for the rest of their life.
"that's brutal" *proceed to cook some Doom Metal*

The Genshin Impact team did a great job with the music choices in this update, honestly Fontaine is the city I loved the most.
The last piece hit hard. Honestly im surprised they didnt put a timer on screen. That would have turned the tension up even more
4:07 i accudentally walked into this place by being spotted while finding neuvillettes starfish and ive heard this too much 😅
I think a huge part of my love for the fortress of meropide quests was the INCREDIBLE soundtracks. I live for game OSTs that really put their whole soul and blood to invoke the right emotions.
Need more people talking about how hard 2:46 slaps
YESSSSS
I have been searching for the ost at 4:07 since last night! Would be grateful if you could make a 5-10-15 mins kinda loop for it 😢
Please someone link me to it once it’s done
@@Trippyricky69++
The name of it should be "Welcome to the Industry" if I'm correct. (Just incase you wanted to know)
4:07 is lovely ohmy god. after reading these comments i feel better abt not being the only one who found it amazing 😭 it gives me such good vibes, its like im in a six of crows movie or smth, a spy movie
straight out of death note srsly
It’s official name is “Welcome to the Industry” if you’d like to listen to it on Spotify or other platforms
I love the almost alien, eerie vibe 10:52 gives. Reminds me of liminal spaces kind of thing.
That is my favourite underwater theme so far
Backrooms vibes
It’s give me some gta loading screen late at night vibes for some reason
Dying Light theme
I don't think it's possible to convey the vibe of this area through music any better. Such an eerie, yet strangely calm soundtrack. Like quiet acceptance of the shittiness of the place, especially Wriothesley's theme.
Honestly that's kind of what life feels like at times
Beats hit harder than life in prison
Fr bro
i always come to meropide just to do nothing but listen to the osts cuz i really love it, thank you for uploading this! my favorite is 5:54
Whats the name of the song in the ost?
Great taste. That is my favorite as well.
The fortress has hands down the best tracks in the game honestly, every single one of them is just so incredible honesty. Can't stop listening to them, they're just all around perfect and have such a cool atmosphere to them
I hope this album will be released soon so i can enjoy 4:07 on repeat
I love the music when we are underwater near the fortress of meropide. It gives me a little dark vibes ❤ ( 8:50 & 10:53 )
It gives that Minecraft Creative Mode music vibes , especially Blindspots , Haunt Muskie , Floating Trees , Dreiton and Aria Math
Same omg gives kind of neon punk vibes or almost reminds me on funk music
Love the 3rd one, very pensive and dystopian. Hope Hoyomix does more emotive pieces like this one
Thank you for uploading
08:50 is my favorite
5:54 give that Alice Madness Return vibe
I love the second and third soundtrack. The second one is so relaxing and slightly arrogant, and the third one plunges you into deep thoughts.
Helping anyone looking for this banger out (8:50), i took months to find this ost so I dont want ppl to suffer like i did 😭 the name of the ost is crystal curtains!
There it is!!! 5:55 keeps reminding of Alice Madness Returns ❤ it has abit of its vibe especially with what sounded like clocks ticking and the harpsichord and violin playing
The soundtrack in the Meropid fortress reminded me of the theme from the old 80x spy action movies where the hero ends up in the lair of the main villain
Fotress of meropide 2 kept me going during the archon quest truly🔥 it gave me the feeling to go after completion! The vibe is just insane ❤️
That bass drop on Fortress of Meropode 1, quite matching with the theme of Wriothsley, it's also got me to listen closer with the OST and looking for it after finishing the archon quest
5:54 why is no one talking abt this one? It’s super smooth and calming and it just has the little creepy and sinister vibe you would feel in a prison. It makes me feel like I’m also at a royale ball, or I’m listening to a music box.
Соглашусь
third one is my favorite. i really just stood in one quiet place and listen to the music. and the ending of the second one is such a banger lmaoo
last one is also godly
Actually, #2 and #3 and some of my favorite soundtracks in the whole game!
at first I didn't like Fortress's ost but they grew so much on me and I absolutely love them now
The third one is AMAZING, 100% my favorite and it’s just so nice on the ears!!
Fortress of meropide has become my favorite place in all of Teyvatt. The songs make me feel at peace and at home there.
“Outside Fortress of Meropide (1)”
One of the most beautiful things I've heard 🧜♀️
this is amazing! honestly all of the tracks sound nearly identical minus the dukes office I seriously thought this place only had two sound tracks.
damn the third is blessing for my ears ...
This might've been the first time I wanted to stay in prison in a video game, this ost is phenomenal.
I LOVE FOTRESS OF MEROPIDE SCORES SINCE DAY 1 I LISTEN TO IT >< THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS!!
4:13 this is my favorite fr😭😭
Wriothesley's office theme reminds me of "everywhere at the end of time"
Most of people love the third song, me too
Its so deep when I play 4.1 mission on the "prison"
6:54 as I was investigating the "hidden rules”. Just pure awesomeness. Makes me think about all the secrets this place could be hiding.
10:52 weirdly reminds me of earthbound or similar music, it has that vibe to it
the style of 4:07 ost remind me alot of some Ragnarok Online leveling maps theme. Maybe bc the fortress have an similar aesthetic with einbroch and the steampunk factory thing
love the last one. it represents the impending disaster so well!!!!
Hoyo-mix delivers once again! I loved all of the Fortress of Meropide soundtracks. It was such a vibe playing through the Archon quest to this music. The rest of Fontaine had nice music don’t get me wrong, but it sounded more like regular classical music and didn’t have the same individuality as these “prison” soundtracks had.
i love the third one so much, every time it played i got excited, its so dark and badass
3:33 BRO THIS PART HITS HARD
I am obsessed with these tracks.. wish they were on spotify man
5:58 this one is my favorite. it captures fontaines vibe so well, especially the fortress. i love hearing it when im in there
It reminds me of Dishonored and Bioshock, it make me feel nostalgic X)
Same, bro/sis. Feels steampunk-ish like Dishonored
AHHHH the fortress has the best osts so far imo
I've been waiting for this, thx!
Автор, спасибо тебе большое, что собрал всю музыку тут❤
5:58 this soundtrack it's feel like Alice madness return
2:42 i love this part so much why no one talk about this
thank you, your quality is the best!
don't know how many other people have noticed this, but the second theme of fortress of meropide has the same melody as 'food glorious food' from the oliver twist movie (: thought this was pretty cool considering everyone in the fortress has the worst food imaginable and i bet they'd be singing this when they actually were lucky enough to get a nice meal lmao
8:50 the best
The last soundtrack has to be the scariest soundtrack in the game so far
The meropide tracks go unbelievably hard, my favorite part of all osts in the game so far
The second one always got stuck in my head lol, the first and second ones are quite epic but chill at the same time
While listening to the fortrtress of Meropide (2) while playing I got extremly reminded of OST from Song of Saya - Schizoprenia. They are such different songs, but the beggining instruments where like a whiplash to me
04:07 God i love this it sounds like something out of the binding of isaac repentance ost
No 6 tugging my heart when i first listened to it, so hauntingly beautiful
The way the drums kick in at 3:40 with the guitar is my fav part of any genshin song
I like the last one so much it builds tension so well i actually got nervous
Waahh my favorite one is 8:50 !! I loved swiming into that area with my newly aquired Neuvillette Lol
There's something oddly mysterious that comes with this song, yet i can't point my finger on it :O
My favorite idky I find it so mellow and relaxing
9:18 Holysh*t
The duke’s office ost has something so eerily nostalgic about it
i absolutely adore the music outside the fortress, i always stop to listen when Im exploring there
Idk why but the first one felt sooo cool with that one scene with Lyney busting in and Wriothesley was just on the stairs
It made it feel like some old film, especially since i play with voices turned off since i voice them myself (it helps me focus on the story and it's fun)
ALSO i know i say this all the time but i swear these ost are especially inspired by the ggz ost more specifically Cthulhu, Nightmare, Artifacts, and Undersea
God they get better each time
Am I the only one getting detective vibes at 2:20?
Yes
Nopee I too definitely felt like a real detective when doing the investigation mission entirely because of the music
Im being a sexy detective :V
3:43 and 5:09 are perfect , stopped countless of times in the fortress, lowering all the other audios except music for these masterpiecew
05:54
OST number (4) absolutely
👌👌👌 This music is beautiful and creative beyond imagination 🎉🎉🎉 and OST number (3) 👌👌
give the name of ost on 8:50 please!! i love it so much, but i cant find it anywhere cause i don’t know name…..
I love meropide’s soundtracks a lot 😭 same dark sorrowness as you feel like inazuma but more chill, ambience to hear. Just enjoy the vibe when i do story acts in meropide.
4:07 fuckin DBZ cowboy music
And I love it 😂😂
absolutely love the 2nd and 3rd one
