      He definitely does miss. He went super experimental for most of the stuff from MiA season 2 and some of it is downright unlistenable. You can tell it's intricately made and he's a genius for sure, but almost every other track sounds like it was designed to melt your brain. Bizarre instrument choices, tons of dissonance, pretty much on the edge of becoming noise rather than music. The ones that actually make some modicum of sense are indeed awe-inspiring, but he kinda went a little too hard on that album.

    The benefits of using a made up language is that you can basically sing a bunch of things that make no sense lyrically, but you can put all the effort into maximizing the flow of those words. It lets your mind do all of the work, inventing what they're singing about. It's like magic.

    The most profound and popular Made in Abyss OSTs composed by Kevin Penkin are: Rumble of Scientific Triumph, Transcendance and Hanezeve, Hanezewe Cardhina, Tomorrow, Old Stories and VOH.
    BUT, I would like to shine more spotlight to other (IMO more delicate) OSTs that made me truly impressed by Kevins work: Pathway, SAN-KEN, Prayer and Immolation, Belaf's Lullaby, Capital of the Unreturned and Dark Reg - Nightmare Fuel
    Overall every MiA OST is perfection but those just sticked the most.

Since i like playing action mmorpg.. and this game called dragon nest at first i thought MiA was like that game... In the first episode when the last scene where Hanazeve Caradhina started playing while we get to see the great view of the pit hole... Man the feeling i felt like its out of this world... For the first time in my life it felt to me that i was sucked inside the movie and i felt like i became part of it... Like i was with them and standing besides them looking at the great view of the pit...because of the first ost i kept craving for this series... And specially the last ost of the first season title "Tomorrow" when it started playing while the kids prepared for there journey again and when they depart from nanachi's house... It saddens me that its like i was with them leaving that house

    I almost never cry when it comes to TV, movies, or music. I don't say that to try and sound all "tough guy," just that I have a hard time connecting with fiction and getting any emotions about it that are deeper than surface-level.
    I mention that because I want to add context to my praise for Kevin Penkin. Yes, there are undoubtedly many phenomenal composers out there. I consider Kevin the best because he's the only musician who has so, SO consistently driven me to tears with his music.
    Good soundtracks mesh with their accompanying story and enhance it. Kevin didn't stop there, he straight up *breathed life* into the show.
    Made In Abyss is already an amazing story, maybe even my favorite of all time. Kevin's work took it to an entirely new level.

    The most impressive part about him is how he's able to compose something this complicated but it actually sounds great instead of just a composer trying to flex their skills. His expression of emotions is never overshadowed by the complexity. It's genuinely complex, as in it expresses complex emotions which requires more complex writing.

    I really love the Ed for MIA S2. Myth & Roid hit it out the park with that one. Endless Embrace is godly along with the entire soundtrack for this show. Hearing that Ed just brings forth Faputa's backstory *grabs heart in pain* . Music is amazing for filling you with hope, despair, anger, love and what other emotion they need to. Kevin is godly with this series and when we finally get S3 he had better be composing. The only thing holding S3 back is the speed of the source material (I don't want the author to speed up and ruin the story just got to wait). S2 ends pretty much where the source material is at.

    Its even more chilling with the young voices vocalising knowing what Bondrewd did to the children, the song is basicaly his story... how its changes is like how he changed

    This is the one song I wanted you to listen to I really appreciate it this song just does something to me I feel so sad and joyful and happy all at the same time it’s a rollercoaster the song follows the plot of the movie to a tee the beginning is being scared and curious of a new place then being in awe of the magnitude of the place they were in and the sudden shift from orchestrally loud and slow to the quick and quiet of trying to escape then to the pleading of trying to escape from captivity and excepting death and finally the last 1 minute of vocals where it has the feeling of loving and forgiving. I can’t explain why I feel this is so perfect but this song is if you ask me the most perfect song ever made. My dream is to see this song played live

    Ah this was great. Kevin Penkin's work for Made in Abyss is really freaking good! I just recently purchased the soundtracks and I can't stop listening. The music is so moving and I also love the dissonance stuff you were pointing to, it all just feels perfect for the anime. I imagine you won't be going for another of his to go over right away, but I would definitely watch if you did. haha. There are so many good ones!

    For when the singer comes in with falsetto, if I were to attempt this song I'd need a "running start". Even if i were to warm up, I'd struggle to hit that high of a note off the start.

  • @sosu418

    Ryuk is the goat, finally a made in abyss reaction. That series has so many good osts, you should definitely check more out if you feel like it. The tracks I find amazing, being a huge fan of the series:
    From the 1st season:
    - Hanezeve Caradinha (Personal favorite)
    - Tomorrow (Personal favorite)
    - The first layer
    - Underground River
    - Pathway
    From Dawn of the Deep Soul (movie sequel to the first season). To me the movie's ost is the best from the whole series, it just has a whole different vibe to it (like some ethereal kind of thing). The main theme of the series is the adventure and longing, but the tracks from the movie have a lot more emotion to me. You can hear the sorrow and the darker tone the film has, yet still feel the majesty of the abyss and the characters' longing for adventure and them wanting to push forward at whatever cost necessary. Enough of me talking nonsense (I'm going to do my best not to name every single track of the movie):
    - Echos
    - Faith
    - reBirth (Personal favorite, probably just after Transcendence and Hanezeve)
    - Field of Eternal Fortunes
    - The Return of Made in Abyss
    - The Fourth Layer
    - Quartet for Broken Arms (Heavily underrated, or at least not popular enough)
    - Transcendence and Hanezeve (Literally my favorite track of the series and Ryuk had to pick that one, you made my day friend)
    - Post-op Meinya
    - Dark Reg, Nightmare Fuel (Has a different tone but still awesome)
    - The Rumble of Scientific Triumph (A fan favorite)
    - Prushka Sequence (No comments)
    - Tozo Hanoline (Personal favorite, one of the most beautiful ones and if you watch the series it hits you right in the feels)
    Uff, that was a lot but I simply can't express enough how much I'm amazed by the movie's ost.
    Now onto the second season. I said the film had a different tone from the first season but I guess that also applies to the second season, this one feels much more energizing and I would say focuses more on the characters feelings towards the abyss and their stories. Even though I loved the ost of the second season I have to say that the sound direction left with a lot to be desired. There were many unused tracks and many others that were reused over and over again throughout the episodes, I feel like it could've been handled better (not that I could because I now nothing about music honestly, but as a fan I get to complain a bit I suppose). Anyways here's the list:
    - Old stories (Personal favorite, the absolute goat of the second season and a fan favorite)
    - Ouni (even though I consider it a personal favorite this one was used A LOT. It's beautiful but whacky, just like Kevin)
    - Vueko (Personal Favorite and wasn't used enough in my opinion)
    - Reg & His Interference Unit (Personal favorite but this one is a surprise)
    - Capital of the unreturned (Personal Favorite)
    - Belaf Lullaby (Personal and fan favorite)
    I wasn't expecting to spend over 30 minutes writing a comment when I opened youtube, but the moment I saw the thumbnail it was too late. I don't know what else to say, as the Made in Abyss manga gets one chapter like every six months (luckily we're getting 65 "soon"), I kind of stop thinking about it and even reconsider it being my favorite animanga. That changes the second I get some Made in Abyss content and I go crazy for it. At some point my comment stopped being about the music so I'm gonna shut up. Kevin is the goat and thank you for this reaction.
    Edit: One huge thing I forgot. Props to the amazing Takeshi Saito for the vocals of this track, Made in Abyss wouldn't be the same without him since he's a recurring voice on the ost 👀

    The most beautiful about music in Made in abyss that it is progressing, not in quality (it was always great), but in pacing and story - this is melody from the movie which is continuing Hanezeve Caradhina from the first season, and in the second season there is another continuation of this melody. Amazing videos))

    HERE IT IS!
    (Nice cover art. Bondrewd = dad of the year)
    in all seriousness, the music captures the show perfectly. In one moment, you are looking around and thinking, "this is pure and beautiful", but moments later, it is dissonant and haunting. It is intricate, and it has a lot of depth, but everything has it's place. In it's entirety it is sad and epic, and has plenty of unexpected twists.

    Side note: The male vocalist's contribution is something of a motif in the series soundtrack. especially in the second part, at 6: 10 (not this video's 6: 10, but the video that T is referencing for the reaction, AKA this video's 16:31).

    since you started with the second album, I'd recommend listening to "Prushka Sequence", "Post-Op Meinya", and "Quartet for Broken Arms" next. and from the first album, I'd recommend listening to "Hanezeve Caradhina", Pathway", and "The First Layer" first. and from the third album, you definitely need to listen to "Old Stories", "The Golden City", and "Radio Requiem"
