hello i would just like to say: thanks for watching! i made this over a year ago as just a way for myself to have a compilation of kikiyama's cool music with all the information the community's gathered, but it's so lovely to see how many comments there are on this, and very heartwarming to read !! when i made the video, i wasn't aware there was at least one other video with practically the same purpose, it's also nicely made. it just makes me happy to see people discuss yume nikki, that's all. *^____^*
Yeah, Yume Nikki is just such an interesting game. While its not for some other people, its still generally such a good game. Especially with its soundtrack and KIKIYAMA's old/other songs. :) like seriously, they are such a bop!
It's possible that Yume Nikki's short, looping soundtracks are meant to keep the player from keeping track of time, and as such get lost within the dream world.
Everyone is talking about how mysterious Kikiyama is while I'm over here wondering how the hell Toby Fox managed to interview them mainly just to ask what they would order at Denny's
Denny's is iconic bro and American diners are a common thing in Japan. You're just not culturally well read enough to see how good of an exchange that is.
@@darkdemigod i was just making a joke about how absurdly funny a question it was for someone so mysterious and elusive... You don't need to be a dick about it
Hearing more music from Kikiyama is so surreal, it's like music composed by a ghost. But I like knowing that they exist. It gives me a better appreciation for the author. I think its fair to assume that most if not all of these songs were made during the development of Yume Nikki, which was first shared in 2channel in 2004, which *technically* makes WAVE and Youth's shadow not qualify but I appreciate their inclusion nonetheless for archival purposes. Seeing Kalimba here is particularly interesting to me, since it does show up in Yume Nikki eventually. More than that, this is an extended version of the song that isn't just a flat out loop. It makes me wonder if other songs in the Yume Nikki ost could've perhaps had extended versions that never made it into the game because Kikiyama wanted to keep the game's songs short loops. I also think is interesting to imagine that perhaps, the Kalimba event in Yume Nikki may not have any symbolism whatsoever, and he merely wanted to put it there as a sort of nod to his other musical style. Although there's also the possibility that the song was specifically made for Yume Nikki. But its hard to be know for certain. Thank you for making this video. I hope one day those two missing songs will be recovered one day.
@@agustinag6676 his most recent song on spotify is called "whisper" and the other one dissapeared but he collabed aparently with someone named "Levorica" for both, maybe his friend or its just him
Yume nikki is probably the most influencial horror rpg ever made. It's cultural impact is huge, having inspired other countless indie games like ddlc, undertale, and pretty much 99% of stuff made on rpg maker took inspiration from yume nikki. Kikiyama is a fucking gigachad, plus a decent music creator.
@@memenazi7078 I have knees that dislocate really easily. Like, I could be having a regular brisk walk, and it'll just dislocate on its own. I overexerted myself a bit and my knee went loose and I was like, " AH." So now you know.
Damn that sounds like something you have to get checked!! Maybe it's something you can get idk, calcium for? Or some other medication. Maybe it's a chronical condition but it still helps to know what could be harmful for your help Anyways sorry to intrude (I'm a stranger online -_-) but you should get that checked when you have the chance bc that's not normal
@@thirdwheel9938 sorry for the late response! I had this since I was a child. The first muscle tears warranted a temporary cast. After that, it basically can dislocate whenever it wants. I cannot do anything else for it but build up muscle which is hard to do with my depression. I always wear a knee brace when I’m doing extracurricular activities and when I don’t have it, I just stay cautious. Usually the knee snaps itself back into place. If it doesn’t, someone else has to push it back themselves ( it’s a very gross thing to watch 😅 )
BK5 sounds like the save theme ,besides just the chord progression(which is used in many songs not even related to YN) atleast one of those keyboard layers was used
I didn't even know that person had an online presence before Yume Nikki. It's just so bizarre and uncanny, like I'm listening to songs that shouldn't exist, or that came from an alternate reality. Thanks for sharing. I really hope one day the 2 remaining songs see the light of day, cuz these beats slap!
BK5 kinda sounds like an sped up version of "the end" (first sequence) And i would like to say that it also sounds similar to sayo-nara from ddlc (again the first sequence. I'll like to think ddlc got a bit of inspiration of this)
According to the descriptions of some of these tracks, they were produced with a lot of Yamaha synthesizers and sequencers. At least the RS7000, QY70, and RMX1. The death scream from YN is also a preset sample from a Yamaha keyboard (I don't have access to it anymore and it's been a while, so I couldn't tell you which one.) The descriptions to these tracks are, by far, the most transparent look into KIKIYAMA's creative process with anything.
It's a more common chord progression than you would think and KIKIYAMA seems to get a kick out of it, because it's used in the save theme and FC Fields, which are some of the most melodic tracks in the game.
But I want to know in which software did kikiyama compose all of this :,3 I have so many ideas of music but I can’t with so much complexity fl studio has for simple newbies like me

it's an awesome game and it's really interesting to see more from the developer!
Im genuinely surprised this still exists on the internet, Kikiyama’s gotta be the most unknown and mysterious developer I’ve seen ever.

It's funny that most of these songs are 5 minutes or longer and the YN soundtrack ended up being famously short lol
yea. lmao
Some are shorter than others, and it took me an embarrassingly long time to realize it was a loop cuz i got so lost.
It's possible that Yume Nikki's short, looping soundtracks are meant to keep the player from keeping track of time, and as such get lost within the dream world.
the DisChild is funny cause 'child' in japanese is 'ko', and so it's named disko/disco lmao

I do wonder, maybe Kikiyama wanted to release the full Yume Nikki songs eventually, but due to getting a sudden spotlight on their game, didn't?

Yume nikki was shared on 2channel ? Did not know…

Man i wish i could talk to Kikiyama someday, this guy was a genius in his own way.
I love yummy nickles and i love madotsuki, man, i wish sleeping was real...
It might sound crazy what I'm about to say
it might seem crazy what im 'bout to say
Whoa Kikiyama is really good at making music!
No way I casually found this today that it's their first song's anniversary of 9 years.
Kikiyama decided to drop funky ass soundtracks that could grow money for the rest of their life and then disappeared without a trace
Respect.
this is fascinating..
I wonder what they're doing today
KALIMBA is unironically a fucking banger tho, god. It's incredible seeing Kikiyama's creative output preserved like this!
Kikiyama made a new song called scream!! He’s alive!!
HUH
when and where can i find it?! im so glad!!

That first one was made 6 years before I was created. Wow!
weird feeling, right?
@@Shuabvv So true...
thank you sooo much for uploading this!
np! i just couldn't find something like this on youtube.
Kalimba has me twerking furiously
Kinda reminds me of Susumu Hirasawa's more pop/dance songs, maybe it's the way the MIDI sounds, just has that vibe
You got me a bit too excited friend, i thought you found cicada drums LOL
Bk5 is soooooooo good 😭!!
The low bitrate audio just adds to it and I love it
Kalimba is so good !!!!!!!
I love this so much! This makes me very very happy. I love Kikiyama.
have you heard of a game called The Indigo Parallel? You should try it out its super trippy and music in it is awesome
Looks like the LSD Dream Emulator!

old series 1 is the toriningen party music! Or the party music is modified from it
kalimba is so fire bro wtf
What a badass find. Sick beats.
Bruh. It's kinda crazy to think some of these songs are older than me...
fr
WHOLESOME
banger.
It's most likely just a same or similar synth, but BK5 sounds like a BMS classic "Canon (Blazing summer mix)". :D
is it just me or does BK5's chord progression is kind of like Pachelbel's Canon in D lol
It's a more common chord progression than you would think and KIKIYAMA seems to get a kick out of it, because it's used in the save theme and FC Fields, which are some of the most melodic tracks in the game.
@@lilguy7491i mean it really is a pretty chord progression so it's nice to hear it 😊
@@Lovena39 It's popular for a reason!

If god doesn’t exist, then how come KALIMBA was made?

Wha programs did he use to make these songs?
i believe he didn't use any programs but rather synthetizers, you could find VSTs of them to use on any DAW (FL Studio, Ableton)
