It's mind-bending how inspired and incredible Silent Hill was as a series. Team Silent and Akira Yamaoka created real art; there are few games that transcended to this level.
im in awe of how extremaly prolific yamaoka is. I listened to SH osts before playing the games and always wondered in what context these tracks would appear - only to find out that tracks i expected to regularly come back as leitmotifs actually appear like only once in the entire game in their own little special moment. on top of that, there's WAY more trax in the game than on the official soundtracks, dozens of little atmospheres that appear once in the game but if they were included on the ost CD, it would turn out to be 3x times as long - and yet none of all that is throwaway filler material, literally the whole soundtrack is top fucking quality.
Bro, you're extremely right lol. I was listening to SH ost for the whole one year before actually playing games, and my mind has made his own sense of every track. But also in the games they appear very appropriate. Every song has it's own place and role. The scene where James losts Maria in the elevator, and then just sit on the floor in absolute despair and emptiness, while the "Magdalene" playing - literally stuck in my mind forever. Also it's a shame that official soundtrack don't consists some great tracks such as "Wishful Thinking" or the longer and cleaner (without that annoying noises) version of "Black Fairy" as an example.
That's what I'm doing AHAHAH Really nice track and now I'm curious to try the game. Do you suggest to start from the first one or I can jump directly to 2?
A major part of this series is the influence of American TV shows like Twin Peaks and American authors like Stephen King, and I'm sure other countries besides America probably, because they also mentioned names like Hans Bellmer and that sounds European (but as an American I'm not legally obliged to acknowledge anyone else exists :P ). I consider the Silent Hill series (well...some of them) a masterwork that is a perfect synergy of Eastern and Western themes, genres, and ideas.
Life has not been tough, I have a family that I love but things are not great most of the time, I am not really healthy, I am not very social outside my long time friend group which I'm blessed to have, but sometimes I can't help it but be sad. This song helps me bring it all out.
You're allowed to feel bad when everyone else tells you to shut up and be grateful. We're all fortunate and unfortunate in different ways. Feel sad, as sad as you need to.
At least you have a friend *group*. I just have my best friend of 16 years - who's 800 km away. We're still in contact and play games daily but we haven't seen face to face in 6 years and it sucks. I live in another country where I can barely speak the language (it was not my choice to move here), so making friends here is a no-go. My family only wants me to extract as much money as possible and nothing else. My health is in shambles. Life constantly tries to fuck me over daily. My life is a constant cycle of go to work, come home, sit at the PC, sleep, repeat. Only sometimes (due to lack of time) do I go on hikes or walks, and even then, alone. Nobody to accompany me. I suffer from several untreated disorders including social anxiety disorder and major depressive disorder. Untreated because I cannot be bothered, no motivation, don't want to trick my brain into thinking I don't hate it here with various pills. Whenever I dare to have a sad / frustrated look on my face I get told to 'cheer up' or get asked 'why are you like this? you have nothing to be mad about, nothing to be stressed about'. As if I'm not 20 years old and at the stage where you stress out about your future and what to do with your life. I'm only here still because otherwise I wouldn't be able to listen to Yamaoka's music otherwise. Only reason why I haven't downed the bottle of sleeping pills on my desk. Apart from this, and my pet cat - I have nothing to live for. When my cat eventually passes, I might do so as well. I wouldn't be able to deal with the grief.
There is a guy on youTube called "Survival Spheres". He makes alternative music which sounds very close to Yamaoka's tracks. Check him out if you like this type of music
@@kirilltroiak5241 just checked him out, he has some really peaceful ambient tracks :) i also just made a sh2 inspired beat a couple days ago if ur interested ^-^
I love SH music. Never played a single game. But my god, this music... It's on par with Eno or Harold Budd or any of the best of them. Some of the most beautiful stuff I've ever heard in my life. The composer is a legit genius.
You really should give the series a try. The music and the game go hand in hand together. It's a work of genius how well all the tracks fit together with the surroundings.
@@fabledorchid8410 Definitely! Always meant to play them but just never got around to it. But given how much I love the music, I really need to check them out. Cheers!
Yeah a lot of songs like no excuses (sh3) the final sign(sh4) and resting comfortably (sh2) are not on ost releases but extracted from the game files themselves but are top tier in terms of atmosphere and what not Heres a link to one that i really like ua-cam.com/video/HqsAFJ938ak/v-deo.html I think resting comfortably is my all time favorite track not on any ost
@@SurvivalSpheres I imagine most of them are from the game files themselves because akira has a way of naming songs and these sound exactly like his style
This is the last thing you hear as you die and peer into what awaits you, but there is neither heaven nor hell. Just an empty void into which your consciousness will be obscured for all eternity.
@@chatnoir856 finally,thanks. I Always wondered about this photo i think It come out by a special version or original art of the game,already seen lot of years ago
I miss Silent Hill, we truly live in the worst timeline as Silent Hill fans, there is a universe out there where the series made good game after good game even after 4 and it became the Mario of horror... but we don't live in that universe..
@@crylune Silent Hill f looks interesting, a fresh take on the franchise! I’m skeptical when it comes to the remake because of Bloober team, but will hold judgement until release. For the other two, they look interesting enough. It’s also good to point out that The Short Message hasn’t been announced yet! Also Return to Silent Hill!!!! Super pumped! Anyways, have a great day stranger whom I’ve just met!

So do it

It’s hard to express the love I have for this music and this game
Same here. I don't know what I would be doing now without this music.
Great for reflection, just don't lose oneself in it.
Can be quite easy to do with Akira's work.
One of the best games EVER
the game has a lot of meanings they need to remake this game
@@ginseng3641 it doesn't need a remake, and they would only fuck it up. The original team is gone
@@hazzmati bloober team is already making a remake of it well lets just hope they make it good
@@hazzmati ehhh, its not easy to mess remakes up.
@@hazzmati I totally agree with you
Silent Hill 2 the original doesn't need a remake. It's a masterpiece a it was on ps2!!!!!!
I like that i can tell this is the same sample used in the forest trail but at a higher pitch.
A major part of this series is the influence of American TV shows like Twin Peaks and American authors like Stephen King, and I'm sure other countries besides America probably, because they also mentioned names like Hans Bellmer and that sounds European (but as an American I'm not legally obliged to acknowledge anyone else exists :P ).
I consider the Silent Hill series (well...some of them) a masterwork that is a perfect synergy of Eastern and Western themes, genres, and ideas.
That’s why it’s so good - a Japanese take on American horror
very funny acting like "Americans" aren't just inbred Europeans and that you haven't genocided the real Americans several centuries ago

No one can make music like Yamaoka
Absolutely no one. my appreciation for him grows stronger by the day I swear.

If "BLAME!" ever gets properly adapted.
God, I hope the OST will be like this.
There have been albums inspired by BLAME!. If you want, I can give you a couple:)
HL 1 ost gives me big blame vibes
i finished blame! today and i totally agree with you. this song matches the vibe of the manga perfectly
Akira Yamaoka, master of ambience
glad i found this channel and song. Awesome stuff on a blizzard windy night.
I think that plays at the end of born from a wish story,before the final scene.
Stunning period
Thank you.
"Anyway, that's what YOU think..." "Earnest... Will you open this door"
Yamaoka must've been stuck in the void, I am a depressed alcaholic, this is the only thing I can possibly relate to

Just 2?
@@Speed4Runs 1,3, & 4 are great too. 2 just has an otherworldly, depressing, & dark feeling to it.
@@Munnwort it's the one game that steps away from the cult narrative and just focuses on the connections people have to the town and themselves
@@Munnwort remove 4 from that and we're golden
@@Speed4Runs here we go again!
So this was released in some special version? Or just a fan recording? I’m asking because I’d like to know whether or not the title is official.
It's extracted from the game and extended to get a decent runtime. Not fanmade, but not an official release either.
Yeah a lot of songs like no excuses (sh3) the final sign(sh4) and resting comfortably (sh2) are not on ost releases but extracted from the game files themselves but are top tier in terms of atmosphere and what not
