A lot of people are talking about 0:52- but 0:36 rarely gets love. It gives me a picture of some winter night, snowing, street lights on, all that.
It's a great feeling.
Damn really bro? 0:36 for me makes me feel scared for some reason its almost as if you could use it in a movie where the ghost/demon looks at you from a distance idk its just me
@@RazeRaze420 Bro yes, I had a freakin dream once when i on the corner of my eye in seen someone standing down in the backyard and when i looked back and seen them looking up at the house this dramatic boom echoed and the cold nerves ran through me like a bucket of pool water got thrown on me..
0:52 reminds me of giant water droplets on a bluey silver desktop wallpaper
Yo one time I had a dream a long time ago that I was falling from the ps2 start up to the red screen of death then I woke up , to see myself hanging off the bed
The creation of the universe.
the universe might have started out as 8 balls orbiting eachother in a hypnotizing way. then one exploded and now we have 7 balls and a universe.
1:39... this is quite possibly my favorite sound in the entire system...
1:10 is slightly quiet on the PS2 startup when it takes long to start
@@sspark2686 it's easy to hear if you buy eeeeeeeeeeeexxxxxxxxxttttttttttttrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeemmmmmmmmmmmmmmeeeeeeeeeeeeelllllllllllllllllllyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy good ps2 headsets
@EthanF44 Yeah, it's almost 20 years because in the next year my ps2 will turn 20
0:41
The core of the Emotion Engine... It’s beautiful, isn’t it?

This is very nostalgic. In my opinion the PS2 had the most memorable menu screen. Something magical about those orbs floating in those patterns
This was my edit 👌🏼
1:11... whoa... the nostalgia hit hard with this one!...
Gives me flashbacks when I was in kindergarten all the way to sixth grade, so it almost made me cry
i remember being 8 years old and turning on the ps2 without a disc just to hear these calm and relaxing sounds.
gmksapo those were the days, PS4s sounds/music are so lackluster in comparison to ps2
my ps2 has a slow disc reader and i mean *s l o w* so i just left the disc in and when it reached the explorer screen i just take the disc out. still have the console. and the reader is still slow.
@@missingno2401 press triangle on the main menu and you can set disc speed to fast.
I always thought Silent Hill 2's music was so damn fitting for multiple reasons, but this is one of the biggest ones. The PS2's BIOS music sounds like it could be from Silent Hill 2 itself. They're both so atmospheric, and give a mysterious feeling of the unknown.
1:11 Feels like you’re drifting off into the unknown I love it…
1:40 Feels like it’s telling me “everything is going to be ok…”
The rsod never scared me it just showed me the disc didn't get anywhere
This sends chills down my spine. The PlayStation 2 was my first console (I think), the ambient sounds and music are such big influences on my music. I still play this console. My childhood was amazing! ❤️❤️❤️
1:02 so nostalgic i wanna cry
Whoever made those sounds was a genius
1:28 give me MAD goosebumps, I feel fuzzy asf when I hear it lol
I remember the first and last time the red screen of death happened to me, I was 6 or 7 when this happened, but I was trying to play the first need for speed underground, I remember doing something in the storage settings with the ps2 with nfs underground, I think I had accidentally deleted everything that me and my brother had done with the game or something, but when I tried to launch it the ps2 gave me the red screen. I was crying but it wasn't because of the red screen being eerie because at the time stuff like that didn't really scare me but I was crying because I realized that I deleted everything that we had done in the game, I still don't know why me deleting the memory of nfs saved data had stopped it from launching the game but yeah that's when I saw it
These sounds are the reason why I always waited until the game booted to turn the TV channels to the PS2(Especially the RSoD sound at 1:26).
Quinn Ingrassia I meant to say I was creeped out by these sounds when I was younger(I was only 4 years old when I got a PS2 for Christmas). Younger people were usually scared of these sounds because of the dark atmosphere. As I got older, I got less scared of these sounds, although I'm still kind of creeped out by the RSoD sound on a real PS2 becuase I dont expect it. Otherwise, yeah, these are some beautifully composed ambience sounds for the PS2, the actual menu sounds are so calming...
Some of the bios noises are basically explosive white noise but the more tonal ones are perfect. I can see why someone would be scared of these as a kid but i Ioved it. Every time I turned on my ps2 I just waited for the startup eagerly. I’m not invincible though, the thx logo noise fucked me up.
Quinn Ingrassia Yeah, I was always scared of the THX logo when I was younger too. Some theaters(such as Cinamark XD) still use it!
i think these sounds are pretty representative of the feeling and aesthetic of the console, most games' menus and UI's had this style of sound effects
1:21 I almost hear Windows 95
When I was a kid I had a lot of dreams where I was in the RSoD universe, like I was flying through that clouds and even some "secret" menus lol.
Holy hell I KNEW the PS2 was the scariest Console of my childhood...
Yet it was definitely ahead of its time.
@@dreamer7960A. E. PT. BU. O. JI. FT.
That's what i hear. Random letters.
It comes from a space mission
These are literally the sounds of the year 2000
I remember when I had a nightmare with a PS2 startup, where only the sounds at 0:00 and 1:34 played. Also it was an RSOD
man, when i first time heard the 0:01 playing alone i was creeped out. Had nightmares.
0:41 gave me chills all around
1:40 Browser and System Configuration sound.
Nostalgia, childhood, memories.
Somehow listening to them all separately is more effective than combined together. I literally felt like I was in an etheral world when I turned my PS2 on. It just felt like magic.
I have yet to find another console to give me experiences like this, this otherworldly vibe to it. And listening to them now, they pretty much are the sounds of childhood memories flooding back into your brain, like being taken back to the early-mid 00s and your fuzzy old CRT TV in standard definition playing PS2 classics of all kinds, from violent GTAs to quirky and fun Katamaris, to artistic Shadow of the Colussuses. It felt like literally anything was possible from this magical black box, even watching movies.
0:01, the instant I heard the first sound... I thought, BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
imagine the rsod with just the sound effect at 1:27
Rizki76 Yeah but he meant only the sound that was playing at the time he provided, so without the nightmare inducing sound coming after that one he meant.
Victor Figueroa I‘d totally like to go to hell if that‘s what it‘d sound like. It sounds very calming to me.
This had a lot more creepy sounds than I remembered... But I find it calming in some kind of weird way, which I can't explain because... I don't know what it is...
1:11 sounds epic
My nostalgia is now back !
0:41 Sound from Heaven
These are the noise you hear in your afterlife
My childhood console! It brings back memories!
1:27 big red around
Hey tails! You are super cute! What do you think of sonic 2? Have you seen tails doll?
0:52 good old ps2 sound very nostalgic
1:27 No, not you, GET AWAY FROM ME!
0:36 so creepy
Тимофей Будагов it's the sound when the green light hits the red light on the startup
0:00 Sounds like I’ve been transported to an unknown planet
0:08 A car driving through your neighbourhood as you are all cozy in bed, drifting into sleep
0:11 You wake up randomly during the night and decide to make some tea (or coffee) at 3:AM
0:13 Below the ocean, gazing at the beauty of aquatic wildlife
0:16 Taking a relaxing morning or night shower
0:20 looking out your open window on a rainy day
0:23 Like the first one, but you don’t feel alone...
0:36 You begin to explore this unfamiliar environment, as you travel the empty but rugged landscape, you spot a dark, cold cave. It makes you feel uneasy, as if there is something watching you from the other side, but you move on to look for any sign of human life.
0:41 You climb over the harsh terrain, and spot an occupied facility!
0:52 Your body flutters with happiness and relief as you spot fellow people exiting the building! You yell to bring their attention, they spot you!
1:02 You tell them what happened, they want to help!
1:11 You are sent on a rocket ship, on a one way trip to earth! You gaze at the opulent beauty of neighbouring planets and fellow people travelling the cosmos via rocket ship! The feeling is pure bliss...
1:26 You hear a window crack, you turn your head, and your heart drops. A crack, slowly travelling its way up and around the window, it’s about to break!
1:33 It shatters. You immediately get sucked it into the cold and lifeless vacuum of space, struggling to breathe. But then you hear a strange sound, ever increasing in volume. Then you think you catch a glimpse of a space ship.
1:40 “Wake up, it’s not your time yet!”
1:45 - 1:55 You are half conscious, as you hear alien technology and other worldly beings communicating amongst each other.
1:56 - 2:03 Moments of awareness and consciousness coming back to you... You stretch your arms and yawn. You finally open your eyes and... you see yourself in your bedroom. It was all a dream!
You look outside to see the whole neighbourhood coated in thick snow! You then make your way to the living room, and see all of your siblings unwrapping their presents! Your parents greet you, and they tell you to dig in! The atmosphere is great, and then you see 3 presents with your name on them - one big cuboidal box, and 2 small identical presents to the side - you open up the 2 small presents and notice that these are PS2 games! Specifically “Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus” and “The Simpson’s: Hit & Run”. Then, the realisation of the other present hits you. You open it up and see big blue letters that spell out “PS2”. In a moment of uproaring excitement, you take it to your room and begin to set up the console, as you hear the laughter of your parents behind you.
I’ll finish this later lol
And after this response from me, this figure has still yet to wake up. But what if your actually part of this story?.. you Are in the story. Blinding lights flashes all around you as you are ejected into a strange space like atmosphere, unknown of what to do, you begin to look around the area, hoping to find something that would atleast help, it was true, in the distance you spot a shiny blue & green planet that awfully looks like earth, you get exited and immediately dive towards the planet... however you then get the feeling of you being pulled... the feeling gets stronger and stronger as you try to fly away from it in a panicked way as fast as you can... but it was too late. You give up and turn around to see what is pulling you. A blAck HOle.,. YoU STarT cRYinG As YOUr LiFE SloWLy FaDEs AwAY.fzWAKE UP WAKE UP WAKE U- The tape ends here...
1:14 I heard it in PS2
I feel like all these noises would make excellent fodder for making a super form aura.
I swear the sounds always sent chills up my spine and i thought THIS IS GREAT....at least until the RSOD arrives and then im like OH NO kool-aid man style
I still have my PS2 since 2002 my PS2 came with ATV Offroad Fury 2 it still works I still play it sometimes
0:52 It gives me "Happy New 2000 Year!" vibes
0:40
Vaporwaving vaporwave startups
0:41 Should’ve been a PS2 pro startup sound
Honestly these sounds are scary, everytime i played, i was kinda anxious of turning the game fast, these music right now are nostalgic and not scary of course, but when i was a kid it was
0:52 this chord here is something that makes you feel like your in space too. Am I right?
Fun fact: some of these sounds come straight from the E-MU Orbit 9090 rack synth (patchnames being Keyrush and Keystack ).
I believe at the start of 0:41 is used in the Unreal - Nightvision remix here on UA-cam by Mothership Loudspeakerz, which funnily enough in that video starts at 2:41 lol :)
Beautiful 🥺 1:11
PlayStation 2 was born in the new millennium in Japan 🇯🇵 and it release in October 26,2000 in North America like I was born in the new millennium too including October 31,2000(Halloween 2000) so that why I got a PlayStation 2.
When i know that these song are now 20 years old...
All the OG GTAs were on this console
0:52 "Playing Minecraft and Found a village" *Calm*
1:40 "You Got Diamonds" *Also Calm*
It feels like you are in silent hill 2
0:00 Scares the shit out of me when I was a little kid playing my ps2 and this scared the shit out of me too 0:24
Why exactly do these sounds, particularly 0:41 and onward, sound so satisfying? Any music junkies know how to explain these chords? yes I know nostalgia makes them sounds better but you know what I mean.
ua-cam.com/video/0O0kr6kCnnA/v-deo.html
You requested a specific part to explore (which I have).
It's not a perfect recreation, but in the particular excerpt (by your timestamp) the scale used is the second mode of the B Major Scale (i.e. C# Dorian). Notes C#, D#, E, F#, G# and B and very distinguishable. Scale suggests A# is also used, but my ear isn't good enough to determine whether flat is used instead.
The significance of this particular one you chose is how common the B Major Scale is used (and liked) by major composers of the 19th century (Lizst's Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2, Glinka+Mikhael's Skylark, Debussy's first Arabesque, to name a few).
That's the best I can serve you for now, although perhaps after more exploration I can give you more insights.
@@callykitten5095 Like I wrote in your video there, thank you for the chord demo. Another question, no need for a video this time unless you really want to, is how would you describe the shifting of chords from the 0:41, to 0:52 to 1:02 and then finally top off at 1:10 ? Is it some sort of typical third or what?
@@runningwild09 They're all the same audio sample but transposed using a simple playback speed adjustment. What's peculiar about it is the power the PlayStation 2 has within it to render these derivative samples on the fly, against Sony's needless decision to instead bloat the size of the BIOS by pre-exporting them individually and stringing them side-by-side, and also ignoring the huge optimisation they could make by merging each sample together in advance into a (in absence of a better word) coalescent 'supersample'.
From any angle it is completely wasteful of resources, because the start-up sequence is merging (on the fly, without any cool effects applied) several separate audio streams that could have been merged offline into one supersample and save the many millions of PS2 copies sold both a reduced ROM production cost (considering memory was more expensive in 1999) and the gross sum of electric watts consumed every time the PS2 is reset.
How the PS2 became one of the best selling consoles is not at all understood by the developers of that generation of games, who absolutely despised developing for the PS2 due to its notoriously obfuscated hardware interfaces, which was so appallingly difficult to get accustomed to that most developers used a third party API called 'Renderware' to drive their graphics for them.
@@runningwild09 I didn't quite answer your question. Given that there are no wolf frequencies, I'd intuit that your idea of third intervals is probably correct.
1:40 TOP OF HEAVEN (BEST)
1:11 HEAVEN (GOOD)
1:27 HELL (BAD)
1:33 BOTTOM OF HELL (WORST)
At 1:27, how do you not make it sound weird? I slow the sound down to that speed, but it doesn't sound right...
Well what I did was I used high quality pitch changer, then I used the first 1.5 seconds of the full rsod sound so that it didn't sound so weird.
its the red screen of death it doesn't kill the console it just shows a "scary" screen
@rutai Yes, what you need is a bios file from an early revision PS2, and a program called PSound, just run the bios through that program and you have the sounds. Not all of the sounds shown in this video are in the bios though.
Well, the sounds are split into several segments, and that was one of them
I think I could sleep with that background music. It is not really disturbing.
What part of the ps2 are these sounds from?
Doing god's work by posting this.
The sounds of nostalgia and sounds more like a galaxy
When your finna turn on the ole ps2 but u tell it to be quiet 0:00
Ah the beautiful signals of your relaxing dreams of my own world is calling me. 😌😌😌 0:52
At 0:00 It Looks And Sound Masterpiece! 🤯🥺😭😢😊😁❤️🔥❤️💗🔥❤️🔥
0:52 The sound of 2000.
So it sounds beautiful?
1:27 & 1:33 The sounds of 2020
@Mr, Spongebob Literal depictions of how 2020 went downhill, first the Australian wildfires, the earthquakes in Cuba, the Nuclear treaties with the US and Iran, the COVID-19 pandemic and other forgettable events that happened throughout the year. Here's hoping that 2021 will be a better year.
