Maaan, where has Genshin Impact music been all my life? I'm having a blast! Make sure to check out the video I did on Raiden Shogun Battle Theme from Genshin too: ua-cam.com/video/0dU_I7LIr6s/v-deo.html
You're correct on it being "Feminine" La Signora is one of the 11 Fatui harbingers who are all named after the Archetypes from Commedia Dell'arte and share some traits with said Archetypes. Signora is a tragic figure, having lost her lover and awakening a power that burnt at her life and living off of borrowed power to enact her revenge upon the gods who she deems at fault for the death of her lover 500 years ago.
Less revenge and more bitter and angry. As well as completely dedicated to One God's dream of a "New World". As she revealed her true from and melted away the ice, the memories of an innocenct existence she once had but she burned with her own hands resurfaced. Her anger has always been directed at the monsters of the abyss and The God of freedom, and perhaps even the world in itself which is why she wants to burn it all.
There's a group of "villains" in Genshin called the Fatui, and all boss themes of it's members share a Fatui leitmotif. Signora, Scaramouche and Tartaglia all have boss themes with that leitmotif. Since you're probably gonna listen to them days or weeks apart you most likely won't notice it, but i just wanted to point it out
@@SevenRedSuns1296you might be thinking of scaras motif, the normal fatui theme is there, just later on in the track than in childes and signoras theme
@@acorn861 no, though its easy to see why you'd think that, to give an example, in act two of the newest archon quest, when Childe/Tartaglia/Ajax tries to unleash his foul legacy the Fatui's motif is slowed down and is much deeper, this is Childe's variant of the motif, I was never interested in La Signora so I don't have a good example for her but when "the execution" track plays I believe her variant can be heard, her variant has a female quoir mixed in btw
it should be noted that the reason that Shogun theme shows up in here is because this fight is being done entirely under the oversight of the Raiden Shogun. It's pretty much a duel, with the Shogun being the referee and the executor of the punishment (death by her blade)
I don't think I've ever heard musical keys described in such a simple way for non-musicians and I love that! You have a way of explaining things in a clear and precise way that's so fascinating to watch happen. I'll admit that I've only fought Signora maybe 2 or 3 times, so I'd forgotten what her theme sounded like, but it really does her justice. Thanks for the review!
@@DaviVascNever change man, your videos are always a treat and so informative for someone like me, who has very few amount of musical knowledge. Thank you for always doing your best!
Nice analysis! Can't wait for more genshin music break downs. Maybe Scaramouche's boss theme next? Anything is good tho, this game has amazing soundtrack
I appreciate that you always spent your time to point out the thought and detail that these producer put into their songs. It help me understand the meaning that maybe hidden. and make me enjoy their song more.
15:12 That melody you liked so much is actually the "fatui" leitmotif. It comes back whenever a character from this organization is present. You will also find it in Tartaglia's theme and in Scaramouche's theme.
you should definitely listen to the theme of Scaramouche, at the moment this is the peak that the themes of Villains in genshin have reached, it, like this song, is sung in Latin, with an admixture of Chinese, I don’t want to spoil it, but I recommend listening with translation.@@DaviVasc
In genshin most "villians" are not evil at all, but more like they have a different motives to do what they do and oppose the main character, it's really cool cuz all main villians have such a story behind them and you can tell by their music
In a world like teyvat with child sacrifice, entire civilization being wiped off the map and people able to be removed from history itself, I'm not surprised so many choose to fight back to burn it all down.
Signora was a tragic character, but she definitely was an evil one too. She was consumed by her desire for vengeance to the point she got rid of her humanity.
The theme is from the bosse's point of view and her backstory is heart breaking😢 Before becoming La Signora "The Fair Lady", she was Rosalyne-Kruzchka Lohefalter, a young woman from Mondstadt (The starting area of the game.) Around 500 years ago she fell in love with a knight. After some time she left to study. While she was studying in the Sumeru Akademiya Rostam (the knight) died in a war agains monsters. As Rosalyne comes home to Mondstadt, she finds out about the fate of Rostam, leading to her insanity. After mourning, she decided to use “her life’s flame” to cleanse “the world’s crookedness,” becoming the Crimson Witch of Flame. She let liquid fire consume her, abandoning her mortal body. She only ever used her liquid fire to burn monsters and demons, but it gave her infamy amongst people and they started to fear her as the Crimson Witch of Flames. Before she could be fully devoured by her own flames, Pierro "The Jester" Leader of The Fatui (organization ingame) found her and decided to make her an ally. She was given a Cryo Delusion a human made copy of crustals that give people powers) to suppress her flames and became known as La Signora, the Eighth of the Eleven Fatui Harbringers. (Group of eleven strongest Fatui)😊
This progression at 5:50 is so genius from the composer, it explains the emotions of signora in her lore, she goes from sad due to her lover's absence because of war, then it turns to happiness because she heard he was coming home, only to go back to sadness because she learnt that he was killed, then she goes mad (the disturbing chords) and finally becomes evil (the tense chords).
I'm so glad you're diving into Genshin Impact, it's a treasure trove of amazing music! I think the sad notes in this song represent La Signora's tragic past. I have a few suggestions! Ones I made before and a new one: Ode to Azhdaha/Rage Beneath the Mountain (Azhdaha theme, such an incredible piece), Never-Ending Performance/Wrath of Monoceros Caeli (Tartaglia theme), A Storm, A Spire, and A Sanctum and Die Mittsommernacht-Fantasie. All amazing music as per usual :)
There are multiple other fabulous boss themes for you to react to, but for your next Genshin reaction, I recommend “Die Mittsommernacht-Fantasie.” It’s a regular battle theme and I think you’d like it quite a bit.
15:00 yeah we were dueling in front of Raiden's throne. but this leitmotif itself represents something Fatui (La Signora's allegiance) or something affected by the Fatui.
He has no idea how crazy Genshin music are, he said that this song is too epic not to be a Boss Theme song, but we literally have epic music like this for a mere port lmao, he should react to the live performance next xD
I love Genshin Impact music! A cool thing about boss theme in Genshin is that the music is made to describe the boss as a character in this case all the drama secrions and vulnerability section you mentioned are refering to Signora's backstory But the boss themes are not the only good pieces of music in Genshin Impact, I advise you to listen also Hustle and Bustle of Ormos, Gilded Runner, Swirl of the Stream, Forlorn Child of Archaic Winds and Die Mitsommernacht Fantasie that are my personal favorite non-boss OST from Genshin Impact
I always adored how the song is basically a end of her story by mirroiring it in a way. Cold calm giving away to seething blaze knowing her story its quite fitting
You pretty much described La Signora just by listening to her theme hahaha. To continue with genshin, Ill suggest "Die Mittsommernacht-Fantasie". Its not a boss theme but a battle theme but its pretty long compared to your usual battle theme since it was made for an event.
Like other people suggested Scaramouche's boss themes (Rhapsodia Roscida and Poluma Omnia) are really cool, but personally I prefer God-Devouring Mania, the boss theme of Apep's Oasis' Warden
That motif you heard that you linked to the execution phase in Raiden's theme is something to remember. It's the motif tied to an organization known as the Fatui, who Signora was a part of, so it's something you'll hear a lot.
I love that you're getting into Genshin's OST! This OST is legendary for the innovative and incredibly creative things that Yu-Peng Chen and the Hoyo-Mix team do with mixing modern instrumentation with classical composition. Motif and references to opera and classical music are everywhere, and it is one of the most immersive soundtracks out there right now. My favorite thing about Signora's fight is that it really nails a major leitmotif that the game uses a lot throughout the course of the soundtrack: those first six notes that the horns play at the beginning of phase one is the Fatui Motif (it's the same six notes that Columbina sings at the beginning of A Winter Night's Lazzo, which is where that connection comes from for those that are curious). More broadly, the dissonance of a minor second interval is used in pretty much every harbinger theme that we've heard, and is kind of the calling card for them as an organization. They're in Childe's phase 3, they're littered in Scaramouche's fight, and you can even hear it when Arlecchino was introduced in The Final Feast. But that six note melody is analogous to the Bean Theme in Into The Woods: a basic motif that has many variations across the soundtrack that all use the minor second as a linchpin. It's really cool once you start noticing that Fatui theme. Have fun diving into Genshins soundtrack! There is so much there, and it gets unbelievably deep
Genshin's music is so interesting on how they use the keys to enhance a feeling of emotion. The singer enhances it 10x more. I hope to see your reaction of Scaramouch and Frontier's Conquest War Crimson Fatalis theme(which I prefer over 4Us) I won’t say anything about the Fatalis theme to not spoil it, but goodness me, it’s so well done.
there is indeed some softer moment in the first phase as La Signora actualy has a sad backstory that led her to the point she is now though i won't be able to say much about as i never read it except that her lover died from idk what edit: not only in the first phase seemingly x), i honestly forgot the theme as i didn't fought her for a while now
@@alphawolf6214actually her story is written in some artifacts, her lover died in the kahenriah incident trying to protect mondstand and she turned into the crimson witch of flames, destroying all the monsters that were in her way, which made people afraid of her, after some time she were recruited by the fatui and she could suppress her power(also her emotions) with the cryo dilusion they provided her
The Latin songs in Genshin are those of a group known as the Fatui, which Signora is a part of. They do not tell the Protagonist's story, but the backstory of the enemy, which is mostly only revealed in the description of off-story items, and the latin lyrics. PS: The part that you remembered from the "Execution" part of Raiden's theme is the Fatui Leitmotiv, which you will come across in two other themes, those of Tartaglia and Scaramouche.
Hoyoverse are peak when it comes to portraying their character through music. La Signora's theme perfectly captured the feeling of someone whose been broken by sadness and became so resentful they decided to burned themself alive and wage war against gods.
Okay I'll try to summarize as much as possible. La signora went to sumeru akademiya (abroad studies) while her lover, a knight died in a cataclysmic event happened in her homeland. Filled with rage, she used all the knowledge she gained, she left her mortal body and became the *"crimson witch of flames"* but after being caught by the eyes of the harbinger leader, who recruited her and gave her a cryo delusion to soothe the flames, hence becoming *"crimson witch of embers"*
I love this piece of music. It tells a tragic story of a woman full of sadness and rage who knows that her life is basically over but is being held together by another piece of artificial magic eating away at her just so she can avenge her fiancé by immolating herself and everything she deems responsible for her agony.
Regarding the motif you recognized from the Raiden Shogun video, it's actually more associated with La Signora than Raiden Shogun. It's presence in the Raiden Shogun theme is because that part played largely during a confrontation between Raiden and La Signora, and the music alternates between their respective motifs. More broadly, the motif is not specific to La Signora, but rather her faction, and it can be heard throughout the themes of other members of said faction.
I love this breakdown and you're correct almost in all of them. That part when you say that the solo singer feels personal. Because it is. The solo is supposed to represent La Signora herself. The lyrics she sang was her story. Of her love, to her lover, to her country and her God. Of which she was "betrayed". Her lover died, her country deemed her as evil witch. In the end the high notes was some kind of vow to revenge everything to the Gods that had forsaken her.
Maan, if only the actual story of this particular piece is as good as the music tells you. The only way you can understand the backstory of La Signora is through reading specific item description and it's not yet implemented on the quest yet, i still hope we can learn more about La Signora's story in the future quest
La Signora is a Witch, member of the fatui harbingers which is an important group of villains in the game. She has a really sad lore I believe, don't really know because i haven't read about it. But I know it's a tragic love story. The reason why La Signora's melody appears in Raiden Shogun's theme is because the two characters appear on the same scene. Now that you reacted to the battle themes of one of the members I suggest you react to the other two members; Tartaglia/Childe and Scaramouche battle themes✨
Genshin has a bunch of live orchestra presentation. I recommend you check the Sumeru (Arab inspired) and Fontaine (Classical Europe / France inspired) to get a wider look at how deep and complete this game's ost is
Im an avid genshin player and I really appreciate your analyses of some of the game's tracks. Ive grown to find a newfound appreciation of the ones I dont get to listen to that often, like this one! This song is really incredible and your video was very insightful.
Ah the Fair Lady... I do not miss fighting this boss. I'm pretty sure I beat it by outlasting her rather than actually being good at the game. However, this piece still holds a special place in my heart. Heh heh, I'll be expecting you to dissect more cool video game tunes in the future! (Oh and as a heads-up, this and the raiden shogun battle theme aren't the only ones that share that motif you pointed out, but the reasoning behind these two being connected is different because... well, it's a spoiler so I'm not sure if I should say it)
Next you should listen to Scaramouche's boss theme! Also, from what I know, there might be a new boss added to the game in around 2 months, so stay tuned for that :) (no it's not leaks, just me seeing a pattern in the updates)
la signora has a pretty tragic backstory basically her lover/boyfriend was killed in an catastrophic event 500 years ago while she was studying in another land after she heard of it she was angry that the gods did not step in and in her rage she used an forbidden art and transformed her body in living flames after that she was taken in by an "evil" group (its not clear how evil they are bc they do some good stuff to) but they gave her something that lets her control ice but takes slowly her life away. that life taking has no effect on her bc due to her transformation she cant die of high age and the ice lets her cool her flames so she can restore her body but she still holds grudges against the god of her nation the Boss fight is way after that and has basically nothing to do with her backstory you just want to stop her from taking the gods gnosis (basically what gives the god their divine power)😅 in the fight her first form is her human form where she uses her ice but in the second her fire breaks through bc she couldnt contain it anymore the fight also has terrain effects in her first phase its extremely cold and u take damage and in the second its hot but in the second phase she can move and where ever she steps it gets hotter
The theme you recognized from the Raiden Shogun one is the Fatui theme. The Fatui are a military with which Signora is one of the chiefs (they're called Harbingers and there are eleven of them). Despite being from Shnezhnaya, a russian-inspired region (which is not in the game yet), the harbingers have codenames taken after an italian theater opera called "Commedia dell'Arte": they are La Signora, Tartaglia, Scaramuccia, Dottore, Arlecchino (which will be seen in Fontaine, the region that came out a few days ago), Pantalone, Sandrone, Colombina, Pulcinella, Capitano, Pierrot. The Signora theme was present in the Raiden one because of the "execution" cutscene, which is, in fact, the Raiden Shogun executing Signora. You're the first react I see that didn't go crazy at the insane strings/guitar arpeggio in phase 2, I admire your composer there, I'm not capable of not going crazy at that part. Anyway, this boss theme, as ALL Genshin boss themes, tells the tale of the boss. This song actually descripts both the boss battle and La Signora's story and background. And the choir's voice there is insane.
Eyy very new here, though idk much abt here again but I'm just thankful that you reacted to our Signora, and yes amongst many almost equally awesome music genshin's osts, Signora's is definitely amongst fan favorites abd undeniably one of the amazing ones, and yeah hope to see more if ever!! 🦋😍
I've been listening to your reaction videos on genshin music for so long, i hope you do more in a future, so i can hear more of your reaction on one of my favourite ost
La Signiora used to be a Mondstaft Maiden know as Rosalyne, who was deeply in love with a Knight called Rostam. She was very intelligent and adapt in magic, therefore she left her home nation to study elements in Sumeru Akademiya, bringing with her a timepiece from her beloved that counted down to the moment of her return. During her abscence, a cataclysm occured, enveloping the entire continent of Teyvat in chaos. Mondstadt's archon, Barbatos had to fight at the source of the disaster, the Kingdom of Khaenri'ah. Mondstadt was left to fend for itself, and Rostam was slain by a Dragon known as Durin. Having Returned to Mondstadt, Rosalyne was devastated to learn about her lover's death. Believing that Barbatos's ignorance and incompetence was at fault, she used her elemental knowledge and consumed liquid fire, which tranfromed her into the a being of pure flame. She swore to not only take revenge on ignorant gods, but also to eradicate every single monster of the abyss. Although she protected Mondstadt's people, they were terrified of her, calling her a witch - that's when her title "Crimson Witch of Flames/Embers" emerged. She was forced into an immortal life of solitude, which increased her resentment, Madness and grief. Until one day, she was approached by a masked man, who told her about Cryo Archon's will. Rosalyne found Tsaritsa's goals most noble, which led her to eventually become one of the Fatui Harbingers, accepting the alias "La Signora". A cryo delusion - magical gift granting her control over the ice element prevents her own fire from consuming her completely. Because now, even the timepiece from her fallen lover, once filled with water, is buring with liquid flame.
In the 1st phase she fights you using ice (her false self). In the 2nd phase she unleashes her true power (liquid fire) that she had kept inside of herself for over 100 years (after a tragedy) becomeing The Withch of Embers (formerly Witch of Flames)
I'd expect a lot of people would want to follow up with Azhdaha's themes next as he is also a major boss, but also not from INazuma but Liyue so it leans more Chinese than Japanese.
One thing i can say about La Signora is that, she's a very romantic and emotional character. She's connected to an organization called "Fatui" which originated in a Russian Inspired Country and is inspired by "Commedia Dell'arte" along with characters like Tartaglia and Scaramouch (scaramouch is also connected heavily to raiden) whom i also recommend to listen to their boss themes too as these characters share a Fatui leitmotif but they came in different regions of the game and of different upbringings that lead them to the group, which makes their music unique to themselves.
I LOVE YOUR INPUT AND THE KNOWLEDGE YOU SHARED IN THIS TRACK! You hit the nail on the head with your analysis of the music. The music tells the tragic, emotional story of La Signora. She is the boss, the villian AND the victim in the story (of this music). Yu Peng Chen makes all the boss themes a backstory for the boss. As though they are the protagonist of their own story, and we learn so much about their character from their music. Now that you have completed La Signora, I feel it is appropriate you listen to Tartaglia and Scaramouche's boss themes next. You will notice a reoccurring pattern in their themes (if their names alone have not given you a clue yet). Keep close attention to these three tracks in your future videos. We have a fourth boss in relation to these 3 boss themes in the possible near future, so thats something to look forward to. The music of Genshin Impact are so drastically different from each other depending on the nations they represent within the game. (It is shocking to believe they are all from the same game) Apep's Boss Theme is one of the most unique tracks within Genshin Impact today and Azhdaha's Boss Theme + The Divine Damsel of Devastation brings home the Chinese origins of this game. I look forward to more Genshin videos by you! You have been my favourite video game music composer since your Monster Hunter videos
I hadn't noticed the "heartbeat" in the song until you pointed it out, and it's actually very fitting for her as well considering how her heart was practically the only thing left of herself after La Signora had burned away most of her mortal self when the Fatui had found her. It was also the only part that hadn't been truly extinguished by ice, which had suppressed her flames and even memories of her past
the fact that La Signora 2nd phase melody is the same as the beginning of the Execution part of the Raiden Shogun part is because the latter plays right after! And who's being executed? Well, i won't spoil :p
I love watching this guy listen to a piece from something he's never heard of before and then completely nailing all the plot points based on the one song /g
Great video, It has already been asked multiple times but Scaramouche Boss Fight Theme is really good. Even though I don't know if it is liked as much, I have a sweet spot for Azhdaha Battle Theme.
DAVI!! Im new to your channel just today. I really appreciate how you break down what are sad chords, happy chords, and tension chords. Me personally, I love music with sad chords on it, so I’m thrilled to watch more of your videos!! 🎉❤
Yeah Genshin Music is sooo good! My favourite though is the Boss Theme of Childe/ Tartaglia. He is also one of the Fatui Harbingers, the same organisation as La Signora
since everyone will likely be suggesting a lot of boss music (for good reason, they're all bangers), I'd like to throw some non-boss themes in here for variety. one of my favourite themes in the game has to be "rapid as wildfires", it's absolutely amazing. "combat beneath the waves" would also be a great one to see you break down. for something more calm, I think the recent "fontaine" would be a good one (though it may be easier to find by searching for "fontaine main theme").
la signora is part of a group called fatui harbingers ( all inspired by characters from an Italian opera) all their songs are always perfect , if you want a suggestion listen to the tartaglia (childe) boss fight and leave the scaramouche for last ( personally the best OuO )
When I do this boss fight in game, I just quick fight then leave... but when I first actually heard this in full outside of the game (remove the bias of the ongoing fight on the screen), I honestly teared up-- it felt really, really sad esp the choir parts in the first phase. It gave me the impression that the villain didn't wanna be one, but was forced to be one due to circumstance (or some other factor)
That leftmotif you love is the leftmotif used for the Fatui agents in almost all their themes. I would also recommend giving the Shouki no Kami and Tartaglia Childe themes a listen. The former's themes being called "Rhapsodia Rhopsica" and "Polumnia Omnia", and the latter's being called "Never-Ending Performance" and "Wrath of Monoceros Caeli". Both of those two also have transformation themes as well.
I stopped playing genshin a while ago, so all I have to say on this one is: I only wish they'd have given signora half as much development that her battle theme hints at, it's so frustrating to me that she only serves as a weekly boss that you have to farm when she could have been so much more. She could have been a mirror character to your protagonist, she saw the wilder side of the gods and rejected them outright, accepting cursed power even if she knew she would ultimately suffer all the more because of her choice, but her thirst for revenge wastoo strong, whild your character holds the possibility to embody all the gods at once because of the element change mechanics. I feel like with the right amount of preparation, build-up and careful wrighting, she could have been a major character, a tragic villain whose story is a broken reflection of the protagonist's.
15:22 this melody actually Fatui leitmotif, al of fatui (Scaramouche, La Signora, Tartaglia) have this malody in their battle theme. i really recommend you react them.
I am a new follower bc of your two most recent videos. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us, explaining the concepts in an easy to understand way, and your perfect pitch is amazing!! Like many comments, would love to see more especially your commentary for the scara themes Keep doing what you’re doing and hope you have a nice day :)
Davi you really should listen to Andrius boss theme, "Symphony of Boreal Wind". It's a masterpiece done for a relativelly irrelevant boss, which makes it all more impressive. Saudações brasileiras a você.
i think you should check out "elogia cinerosa" as well! it's the background music for an animated scene published on youtube, and contains the same melodies as the ost you reacted to since the scene's connected to such characters.
the double time part of the phase 2 just before the electric guitar is when La Signora decided to be a bayblade on fire everytime I'm farming items for kokomi
Fantastic, new genshin video. While I'm glad you continued genshin, please consider reacting to other lobotomy corporation ost, that game is a gold mine of amazing music. If you do decide to do some, listen to "core suppression" Themes.
Here's some hints to your confusions with least possible spoilers 1. There's very few absolute evil boss in Genshin Impact, most of them are people or creatures doing things they believe to be correct, and the boss themes' main motivation are usually to tell their backstories 2. For most of the boss themes, the first part begins on the story of how you run into him/her 3. For why the first part of Raiden Shotgun's music is the one of Singanora's theme, is because in that stage they were against each other, and then Raiden took over 4. For Raiden, the game area backgrounded by Japanese is her home town, this is why you hear so many parts containing Japanese instruments 5. You will hear similar choir in a lot of boss fights, they are the theme of Fatui, an organisation doing "bad" things to prevent something they claim even worse would happen, and they are the support of those bosses Have a good journey in Genshin music :)
Davi, i think it would be nice if you listen to some character themes from genshin. All the characters have a trailer/demo with their own song. They are short videos(1:30~2:00) Raiden have such a good song with japanese instruments mixed with synthesized sounds
The reason the beginning of Raidens theme is the same as part of Signora's is beacuse there is a cutscene of them fighting so kt transitions between Signora's angry theme ans Raiden's regal theme.
Maaan, where has Genshin Impact music been all my life? I'm having a blast! Make sure to check out the video I did on Raiden Shogun Battle Theme from Genshin too: ua-cam.com/video/0dU_I7LIr6s/v-deo.html
Azdaha boss theme and scaramouche boss theme dude, trust me you won't regret it
You'll love them same level of details and great composition
Next, Please. Scaramouche Theme Boss All Phases.

Music is great but the game is too much time consuming....
You're making me want to play this game, and I've had no intention previously.
You're correct on it being "Feminine" La Signora is one of the 11 Fatui harbingers who are all named after the Archetypes from Commedia Dell'arte and share some traits with said Archetypes. Signora is a tragic figure, having lost her lover and awakening a power that burnt at her life and living off of borrowed power to enact her revenge upon the gods who she deems at fault for the death of her lover 500 years ago.
Less revenge and more bitter and angry. As well as completely dedicated to One God's dream of a "New World". As she revealed her true from and melted away the ice, the memories of an innocenct existence she once had but she burned with her own hands resurfaced. Her anger has always been directed at the monsters of the abyss and The God of freedom, and perhaps even the world in itself which is why she wants to burn it all.
Genshin never forgets that villains are the main characters of their own stories.
There’s too many villains in the game in my opinion
@@EdwardBraunsIIIcongrats on being boring
But they did forgot to tell us about signora b4 she goes rip 😂
@@Qopa Her story was told in The Crimson Witch of Flame Artifacts
@@EdwardBraunsIII
i mean
same as real life
its technically a whole world also in game
There's a group of "villains" in Genshin called the Fatui, and all boss themes of it's members share a Fatui leitmotif. Signora, Scaramouche and Tartaglia all have boss themes with that leitmotif. Since you're probably gonna listen to them days or weeks apart you most likely won't notice it, but i just wanted to point it out
in scarmouche's theme his variant of it descends instead of ascending which I think is a very cool detail
@@SevenRedSuns1296you might be thinking of scaras motif, the normal fatui theme is there, just later on in the track than in childes and signoras theme
@@acorn861the actual fatui leitmotif plays in scara transformation (the organ part)
@@nevergivegonnaupyou6321 it also plays halfway through the 2nd phase theme, only once tho
@@acorn861 no, though its easy to see why you'd think that, to give an example, in act two of the newest archon quest, when Childe/Tartaglia/Ajax tries to unleash his foul legacy the Fatui's motif is slowed down and is much deeper, this is Childe's variant of the motif, I was never interested in La Signora so I don't have a good example for her but when "the execution" track plays I believe her variant can be heard, her variant has a female quoir mixed in btw
it should be noted that the reason that Shogun theme shows up in here is because this fight is being done entirely under the oversight of the Raiden Shogun. It's pretty much a duel, with the Shogun being the referee and the executor of the punishment (death by her blade)
I don't think I've ever heard musical keys described in such a simple way for non-musicians and I love that! You have a way of explaining things in a clear and precise way that's so fascinating to watch happen. I'll admit that I've only fought Signora maybe 2 or 3 times, so I'd forgotten what her theme sounded like, but it really does her justice. Thanks for the review!
Thank you! Some music theory snobs get triggered by my non-musician oriented approach, so I'm glad to know you appreciate it!
@@DaviVascNever change man, your videos are always a treat and so informative for someone like me, who has very few amount of musical knowledge. Thank you for always doing your best!
Nice analysis! Can't wait for more genshin music break downs. Maybe Scaramouche's boss theme next? Anything is good tho, this game has amazing soundtrack
I appreciate that you always spent your time to point out the thought and detail that these producer put into their songs.
It help me understand the meaning that maybe hidden. and make me enjoy their song more.
15:12 That melody you liked so much is actually the "fatui" leitmotif. It comes back whenever a character from this organization is present.
You will also find it in Tartaglia's theme and in Scaramouche's theme.
Scaramouche theme from genshin impact is banger! We want a break down man!
Thank you for the suggestion!
you should definitely listen to the theme of Scaramouche, at the moment this is the peak that the themes of Villains in genshin have reached, it, like this song, is sung in Latin, with an admixture of Chinese, I don’t want to spoil it, but I recommend listening with translation.@@DaviVasc
IM MORE THAN EXCITED FOR YOUR SCARAMOUCHE’S BREAKDOWN!!! 😱😱😱
In genshin most "villians" are not evil at all, but more like they have a different motives to do what they do and oppose the main character, it's really cool cuz all main villians have such a story behind them and you can tell by their music
In a world like teyvat with child sacrifice, entire civilization being wiped off the map and people able to be removed from history itself, I'm not surprised so many choose to fight back to burn it all down.
well for me Dotorre is just pure evil, and no backstory of his will ever change that
Signora was a tragic character, but she definitely was an evil one too. She was consumed by her desire for vengeance to the point she got rid of her humanity.
Listening to Genshin music is entering a rabbit hole full of surprises. Welcome, you're in for a real treat.
the raiden shogun fight happens pretty much right after this one, which is why there are similarities between this and "the exection" specificly
The theme is from the bosse's point of view and her backstory is heart breaking😢
Before becoming La Signora "The Fair Lady", she was Rosalyne-Kruzchka Lohefalter, a young woman from Mondstadt (The starting area of the game.) Around 500 years ago she fell in love with a knight. After some time she left to study. While she was studying in the Sumeru Akademiya Rostam (the knight) died in a war agains monsters. As Rosalyne comes home to Mondstadt, she finds out about the fate of Rostam, leading to her insanity. After mourning, she decided to use “her life’s flame” to cleanse “the world’s crookedness,” becoming the Crimson Witch of Flame. She let liquid fire consume her, abandoning her mortal body. She only ever used her liquid fire to burn monsters and demons, but it gave her infamy amongst people and they started to fear her as the Crimson Witch of Flames.
Before she could be fully devoured by her own flames, Pierro "The Jester" Leader of The Fatui (organization ingame) found her and decided to make her an ally. She was given a Cryo Delusion a human made copy of crustals that give people powers) to suppress her flames and became known as La Signora, the Eighth of the Eleven Fatui Harbringers. (Group of eleven strongest Fatui)😊
This progression at 5:50 is so genius from the composer, it explains the emotions of signora in her lore, she goes from sad due to her lover's absence because of war, then it turns to happiness because she heard he was coming home, only to go back to sadness because she learnt that he was killed, then she goes mad (the disturbing chords) and finally becomes evil (the tense chords).
I'm so glad you're diving into Genshin Impact, it's a treasure trove of amazing music! I think the sad notes in this song represent La Signora's tragic past.
I have a few suggestions! Ones I made before and a new one: Ode to Azhdaha/Rage Beneath the Mountain (Azhdaha theme, such an incredible piece), Never-Ending Performance/Wrath of Monoceros Caeli (Tartaglia theme), A Storm, A Spire, and A Sanctum and Die Mittsommernacht-Fantasie. All amazing music as per usual :)
I fully agree with all of the above. Genshin is really a gold mine when it comes to analyzing good pieces of music
The above comment knows what's talking about!!!! follow this list!!
There are multiple other fabulous boss themes for you to react to, but for your next Genshin reaction, I recommend “Die Mittsommernacht-Fantasie.” It’s a regular battle theme and I think you’d like it quite a bit.
unrelated but I never knew the name for that theme, but it’s a really cool name. “The midsummer night fantasy”.
I wonder how they can make such a masterpiece just for a limited time event that probably won't come back
Yeah it's my favorite!!!! 🤯🤯🤯And I'm listening it for free
15:00 yeah we were dueling in front of Raiden's throne. but this leitmotif itself represents something Fatui (La Signora's allegiance) or something affected by the Fatui.
She does have a lot of backstory.
A lot of backstory I wish the game would’ve actually shown without us just reading it.
He has no idea how crazy Genshin music are, he said that this song is too epic not to be a Boss Theme song, but we literally have epic music like this for a mere port lmao, he should react to the live performance next xD
I love Genshin Impact music! A cool thing about boss theme in Genshin is that the music is made to describe the boss as a character in this case all the drama secrions and vulnerability section you mentioned are refering to Signora's backstory
But the boss themes are not the only good pieces of music in Genshin Impact, I advise you to listen also Hustle and Bustle of Ormos, Gilded Runner, Swirl of the Stream, Forlorn Child of Archaic Winds and Die Mitsommernacht Fantasie that are my personal favorite non-boss OST from Genshin Impact
I always adored how the song is basically a end of her story by mirroiring it in a way. Cold calm giving away to seething blaze knowing her story its quite fitting
You pretty much described La Signora just by listening to her theme hahaha. To continue with genshin, Ill suggest "Die Mittsommernacht-Fantasie". Its not a boss theme but a battle theme but its pretty long compared to your usual battle theme since it was made for an event.
Like other people suggested Scaramouche's boss themes (Rhapsodia Roscida and Poluma Omnia) are really cool, but personally I prefer God-Devouring Mania, the boss theme of Apep's Oasis' Warden
I agree, especially the first half for me
That motif you heard that you linked to the execution phase in Raiden's theme is something to remember. It's the motif tied to an organization known as the Fatui, who Signora was a part of, so it's something you'll hear a lot.
I love that you're getting into Genshin's OST! This OST is legendary for the innovative and incredibly creative things that Yu-Peng Chen and the Hoyo-Mix team do with mixing modern instrumentation with classical composition. Motif and references to opera and classical music are everywhere, and it is one of the most immersive soundtracks out there right now.
My favorite thing about Signora's fight is that it really nails a major leitmotif that the game uses a lot throughout the course of the soundtrack: those first six notes that the horns play at the beginning of phase one is the Fatui Motif (it's the same six notes that Columbina sings at the beginning of A Winter Night's Lazzo, which is where that connection comes from for those that are curious). More broadly, the dissonance of a minor second interval is used in pretty much every harbinger theme that we've heard, and is kind of the calling card for them as an organization. They're in Childe's phase 3, they're littered in Scaramouche's fight, and you can even hear it when Arlecchino was introduced in The Final Feast. But that six note melody is analogous to the Bean Theme in Into The Woods: a basic motif that has many variations across the soundtrack that all use the minor second as a linchpin. It's really cool once you start noticing that Fatui theme.
Have fun diving into Genshins soundtrack! There is so much there, and it gets unbelievably deep
Such an amazing piece, indeed!
The Scaramouche Boss Theme manages to top this one but La Signora is absolutely fantastic!
18:53 bro completely ignored the sick electric guitar solo
Genshin's music is so interesting on how they use the keys to enhance a feeling of emotion.
The singer enhances it 10x more.
I hope to see your reaction of Scaramouch and Frontier's Conquest War Crimson Fatalis theme(which I prefer over 4Us)
I won’t say anything about the Fatalis theme to not spoil it, but goodness me, it’s so well done.
there is indeed some softer moment in the first phase as La Signora actualy has a sad backstory that led her to the point she is now though i won't be able to say much about as i never read it except that her lover died from idk what
edit: not only in the first phase seemingly x), i honestly forgot the theme as i didn't fought her for a while now
and to those who will be wondering, that's not a spoiler, we never hear of her story in the game
her story is mostly in crimson witch artefact set since she is this called crimson witch
@@alphawolf6214actually her story is written in some artifacts, her lover died in the kahenriah incident trying to protect mondstand and she turned into the crimson witch of flames, destroying all the monsters that were in her way, which made people afraid of her, after some time she were recruited by the fatui and she could suppress her power(also her emotions) with the cryo dilusion they provided her
The Latin songs in Genshin are those of a group known as the Fatui, which Signora is a part of. They do not tell the Protagonist's story, but the backstory of the enemy, which is mostly only revealed in the description of off-story items, and the latin lyrics.
PS: The part that you remembered from the "Execution" part of Raiden's theme is the Fatui Leitmotiv, which you will come across in two other themes, those of Tartaglia and Scaramouche.
Hoyoverse are peak when it comes to portraying their character through music. La Signora's theme perfectly captured the feeling of someone whose been broken by sadness and became so resentful they decided to burned themself alive and wage war against gods.
Okay I'll try to summarize as much as possible.
La signora went to sumeru akademiya (abroad studies) while her lover, a knight died in a cataclysmic event happened in her homeland. Filled with rage, she used all the knowledge she gained, she left her mortal body and became the *"crimson witch of flames"* but after being caught by the eyes of the harbinger leader, who recruited her and gave her a cryo delusion to soothe the flames, hence becoming *"crimson witch of embers"*
I love this piece of music. It tells a tragic story of a woman full of sadness and rage who knows that her life is basically over but is being held together by another piece of artificial magic eating away at her just so she can avenge her fiancé by immolating herself and everything she deems responsible for her agony.
Regarding the motif you recognized from the Raiden Shogun video, it's actually more associated with La Signora than Raiden Shogun. It's presence in the Raiden Shogun theme is because that part played largely during a confrontation between Raiden and La Signora, and the music alternates between their respective motifs. More broadly, the motif is not specific to La Signora, but rather her faction, and it can be heard throughout the themes of other members of said faction.
I love this breakdown and you're correct almost in all of them.
That part when you say that the solo singer feels personal. Because it is. The solo is supposed to represent La Signora herself. The lyrics she sang was her story. Of her love, to her lover, to her country and her God. Of which she was "betrayed". Her lover died, her country deemed her as evil witch.
In the end the high notes was some kind of vow to revenge everything to the Gods that had forsaken her.
Maan, if only the actual story of this particular piece is as good as the music tells you. The only way you can understand the backstory of La Signora is through reading specific item description and it's not yet implemented on the quest yet, i still hope we can learn more about La Signora's story in the future quest
So glad to see more Genshin on your channel! I hope you react to more of the game's music!
You have to listen the scaramuccia boss theme from genshin too, is my favorite
La Signora is a Witch, member of the fatui harbingers which is an important group of villains in the game. She has a really sad lore I believe, don't really know because i haven't read about it. But I know it's a tragic love story.
The reason why La Signora's melody appears in Raiden Shogun's theme is because the two characters appear on the same scene.
Now that you reacted to the battle themes of one of the members I suggest you react to the other two members; Tartaglia/Childe and Scaramouche battle themes✨
Scaramouche next pls. I love your videos and now I love that you are listening to Genshin Impact Soundtrack :'3
Genshin has a bunch of live orchestra presentation. I recommend you check the Sumeru (Arab inspired) and Fontaine (Classical Europe / France inspired) to get a wider look at how deep and complete this game's ost is
Im an avid genshin player and I really appreciate your analyses of some of the game's tracks. Ive grown to find a newfound appreciation of the ones I dont get to listen to that often, like this one! This song is really incredible and your video was very insightful.
Ah the Fair Lady... I do not miss fighting this boss. I'm pretty sure I beat it by outlasting her rather than actually being good at the game. However, this piece still holds a special place in my heart.
Heh heh, I'll be expecting you to dissect more cool video game tunes in the future!
(Oh and as a heads-up, this and the raiden shogun battle theme aren't the only ones that share that motif you pointed out, but the reasoning behind these two being connected is different because... well, it's a spoiler so I'm not sure if I should say it)
Next you should listen to Scaramouche's boss theme!
Also, from what I know, there might be a new boss added to the game in around 2 months, so stay tuned for that :) (no it's not leaks, just me seeing a pattern in the updates)
la signora has a pretty tragic backstory basically her lover/boyfriend was killed in an catastrophic event 500 years ago while she was studying in another land after she heard of it she was angry that the gods did not step in and in her rage she used an forbidden art and transformed her body in living flames after that she was taken in by an "evil" group (its not clear how evil they are bc they do some good stuff to) but they gave her something that lets her control ice but takes slowly her life away. that life taking has no effect on her bc due to her transformation she cant die of high age and the ice lets her cool her flames so she can restore her body but she still holds grudges against the god of her nation the Boss fight is way after that and has basically nothing to do with her backstory you just want to stop her from taking the gods gnosis (basically what gives the god their divine power)😅
in the fight her first form is her human form where she uses her ice but in the second her fire breaks through bc she couldnt contain it anymore
the fight also has terrain effects in her first phase its extremely cold and u take damage and in the second its hot but in the second phase she can move and where ever she steps it gets hotter
not only the boss themes are gorgeous but all the ost in game and trailers are masterpiece 👌
"it sounds too epic for it not to be a boss theme"
*Die Mittsommernacht-Fantasie entered the chat*
The theme you recognized from the Raiden Shogun one is the Fatui theme. The Fatui are a military with which Signora is one of the chiefs (they're called Harbingers and there are eleven of them). Despite being from Shnezhnaya, a russian-inspired region (which is not in the game yet), the harbingers have codenames taken after an italian theater opera called "Commedia dell'Arte": they are La Signora, Tartaglia, Scaramuccia, Dottore, Arlecchino (which will be seen in Fontaine, the region that came out a few days ago), Pantalone, Sandrone, Colombina, Pulcinella, Capitano, Pierrot.
The Signora theme was present in the Raiden one because of the "execution" cutscene, which is, in fact, the Raiden Shogun executing Signora.
You're the first react I see that didn't go crazy at the insane strings/guitar arpeggio in phase 2, I admire your composer there, I'm not capable of not going crazy at that part.
Anyway, this boss theme, as ALL Genshin boss themes, tells the tale of the boss. This song actually descripts both the boss battle and La Signora's story and background. And the choir's voice there is insane.
Eyy very new here, though idk much abt here again but I'm just thankful that you reacted to our Signora, and yes amongst many almost equally awesome music genshin's osts, Signora's is definitely amongst fan favorites abd undeniably one of the amazing ones, and yeah hope to see more if ever!! 🦋😍
I've been listening to your reaction videos on genshin music for so long, i hope you do more in a future, so i can hear more of your reaction on one of my favourite ost
Signora: who dares to call me a witch!!!
La Signiora used to be a Mondstaft Maiden know as Rosalyne, who was deeply in love with a Knight called Rostam. She was very intelligent and adapt in magic, therefore she left her home nation to study elements in Sumeru Akademiya, bringing with her a timepiece from her beloved that counted down to the moment of her return.
During her abscence, a cataclysm occured, enveloping the entire continent of Teyvat in chaos. Mondstadt's archon, Barbatos had to fight at the source of the disaster, the Kingdom of Khaenri'ah. Mondstadt was left to fend for itself, and Rostam was slain by a Dragon known as Durin.
Having Returned to Mondstadt, Rosalyne was devastated to learn about her lover's death. Believing that Barbatos's ignorance and incompetence was at fault, she used her elemental knowledge and consumed liquid fire, which tranfromed her into the a being of pure flame. She swore to not only take revenge on ignorant gods, but also to eradicate every single monster of the abyss.
Although she protected Mondstadt's people, they were terrified of her, calling her a witch - that's when her title "Crimson Witch of Flames/Embers" emerged. She was forced into an immortal life of solitude, which increased her resentment, Madness and grief.
Until one day, she was approached by a masked man, who told her about Cryo Archon's will. Rosalyne found Tsaritsa's goals most noble, which led her to eventually become one of the Fatui Harbingers, accepting the alias "La Signora". A cryo delusion - magical gift granting her control over the ice element prevents her own fire from consuming her completely. Because now, even the timepiece from her fallen lover, once filled with water, is buring with liquid flame.
In the 1st phase she fights you using ice (her false self). In the 2nd phase she unleashes her true power (liquid fire) that she had kept inside of herself for over 100 years (after a tragedy) becomeing The Withch of Embers (formerly Witch of Flames)
I'd expect a lot of people would want to follow up with Azhdaha's themes next as he is also a major boss, but also not from INazuma but Liyue so it leans more Chinese than Japanese.
One thing i can say about La Signora is that, she's a very romantic and emotional character. She's connected to an organization called "Fatui" which originated in a Russian Inspired Country and is inspired by "Commedia Dell'arte" along with characters like Tartaglia and Scaramouch (scaramouch is also connected heavily to raiden) whom i also recommend to listen to their boss themes too as these characters share a Fatui leitmotif but they came in different regions of the game and of different upbringings that lead them to the group, which makes their music unique to themselves.
I LOVE YOUR INPUT AND THE KNOWLEDGE YOU SHARED IN THIS TRACK! You hit the nail on the head with your analysis of the music. The music tells the tragic, emotional story of La Signora. She is the boss, the villian AND the victim in the story (of this music).
Yu Peng Chen makes all the boss themes a backstory for the boss. As though they are the protagonist of their own story, and we learn so much about their character from their music.
Now that you have completed La Signora, I feel it is appropriate you listen to Tartaglia and Scaramouche's boss themes next. You will notice a reoccurring pattern in their themes (if their names alone have not given you a clue yet). Keep close attention to these three tracks in your future videos. We have a fourth boss in relation to these 3 boss themes in the possible near future, so thats something to look forward to.
The music of Genshin Impact are so drastically different from each other depending on the nations they represent within the game. (It is shocking to believe they are all from the same game) Apep's Boss Theme is one of the most unique tracks within Genshin Impact today and Azhdaha's Boss Theme + The Divine Damsel of Devastation brings home the Chinese origins of this game.
I look forward to more Genshin videos by you! You have been my favourite video game music composer since your Monster Hunter videos
I hadn't noticed the "heartbeat" in the song until you pointed it out, and it's actually very fitting for her as well considering how her heart was practically the only thing left of herself after La Signora had burned away most of her mortal self when the Fatui had found her. It was also the only part that hadn't been truly extinguished by ice, which had suppressed her flames and even memories of her past
the fact that La Signora 2nd phase melody is the same as the beginning of the Execution part of the Raiden Shogun part is because the latter plays right after! And who's being executed? Well, i won't spoil :p
I dare you to find the time signatures of the Battle Theme Gilded Runner from Genshin. Trust me they aren't easy.
The one who was being executed in shogun's theme is Signora, this was the prelude to the Shogun's one
Genshin's orchestra is incredible, there's a song called Gilded Runner where they use the Fibonacci sequence to make the rhythm
I love watching this guy listen to a piece from something he's never heard of before and then completely nailing all the plot points based on the one song /g
Great video,
It has already been asked multiple times but Scaramouche Boss Fight Theme is really good.
Even though I don't know if it is liked as much, I have a sweet spot for Azhdaha Battle Theme.
8:35 truly beautiful moment!!!
thx for making me discover yet another amazing music
A theme wich you will find very confusing and new would be "gilded runner" its time signature (if i remember time signatures right)
Is interesting
Genshin has some really good boss battle themes. Tartaglia's and Scaramouche's is also great as well as Apep's (God Devouring Mania).
DAVI!! Im new to your channel just today. I really appreciate how you break down what are sad chords, happy chords, and tension chords. Me personally, I love music with sad chords on it, so I’m thrilled to watch more of your videos!! 🎉❤
That was really great! Thank you!
amazing, loved to see your review...I hope you cover the other themes as well!!
Your so spot on the boss has a tragic past so the boss theme has so much emotion
Yeah Genshin Music is sooo good!
My favourite though is the Boss Theme of Childe/ Tartaglia. He is also one of the Fatui Harbingers, the same organisation as La Signora
"Lay waste to the pale flame and witness my suffering"
"Let us share this last dance till death do us part"
since everyone will likely be suggesting a lot of boss music (for good reason, they're all bangers), I'd like to throw some non-boss themes in here for variety.
one of my favourite themes in the game has to be "rapid as wildfires", it's absolutely amazing. "combat beneath the waves" would also be a great one to see you break down.
for something more calm, I think the recent "fontaine" would be a good one (though it may be easier to find by searching for "fontaine main theme").
la signora is part of a group called fatui harbingers ( all inspired by characters from an Italian opera) all their songs are always perfect , if you want a suggestion listen to the tartaglia (childe) boss fight and leave the scaramouche for last ( personally the best OuO )
When I do this boss fight in game, I just quick fight then leave... but when I first actually heard this in full outside of the game (remove the bias of the ongoing fight on the screen), I honestly teared up-- it felt really, really sad esp the choir parts in the first phase. It gave me the impression that the villain didn't wanna be one, but was forced to be one due to circumstance (or some other factor)
I won't stop asking for Coalescence from Risk of Rain. It's fantastic, I really want it taken apart of by you!!
A lot of people are recommending it!
That leftmotif you love is the leftmotif used for the Fatui agents in almost all their themes. I would also recommend giving the Shouki no Kami and Tartaglia Childe themes a listen. The former's themes being called "Rhapsodia Rhopsica" and "Polumnia Omnia", and the latter's being called "Never-Ending Performance" and "Wrath of Monoceros Caeli". Both of those two also have transformation themes as well.
I stopped playing genshin a while ago, so all I have to say on this one is: I only wish they'd have given signora half as much development that her battle theme hints at, it's so frustrating to me that she only serves as a weekly boss that you have to farm when she could have been so much more. She could have been a mirror character to your protagonist, she saw the wilder side of the gods and rejected them outright, accepting cursed power even if she knew she would ultimately suffer all the more because of her choice, but her thirst for revenge wastoo strong, whild your character holds the possibility to embody all the gods at once because of the element change mechanics. I feel like with the right amount of preparation, build-up and careful wrighting, she could have been a major character, a tragic villain whose story is a broken reflection of the protagonist's.
15:22 this melody actually Fatui leitmotif, al of fatui (Scaramouche, La Signora, Tartaglia) have this malody in their battle theme. i really recommend you react them.
I am a new follower bc of your two most recent videos. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us, explaining the concepts in an easy to understand way, and your perfect pitch is amazing!! Like many comments, would love to see more especially your commentary for the scara themes
Keep doing what you’re doing and hope you have a nice day :)
Davi you really should listen to Andrius boss theme, "Symphony of Boreal Wind". It's a masterpiece done for a relativelly irrelevant boss, which makes it all more impressive.
Saudações brasileiras a você.
wish he had also reacted to scaramouches boss theme
i think you should check out "elogia cinerosa" as well! it's the background music for an animated scene published on youtube, and contains the same melodies as the ost you reacted to since the scene's connected to such characters.
You are the most educational music reactor I've ever seen
Thank you for the great video, Azdaha's theme next!!
Great breakdown this game’s soundtrack is amazing.
10:10 DILUCS BURST SYNCED WITH THE MUSIC AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH so satisfying
It's always awesome seeing people in the same field of expertise analyse something. It's just stuff that normal people can't pick up lol
The composer "yu peng chen" is really a genius in all ways 😢
I hope Genshin music stays this good
If you're going to do more Genshin music please do Scaramouche's theme, best song in the game :)
the double time part of the phase 2 just before the electric guitar is when La Signora decided to be a bayblade on fire everytime I'm farming items for kokomi
All the boss themes are incredible actually all the music for this came is worth checking out
Glad to see you're doing better, Shia
I’m so happy you’re finally doing Genshin!
Fantastic, new genshin video.
While I'm glad you continued genshin, please consider reacting to other lobotomy corporation ost, that game is a gold mine of amazing music.
If you do decide to do some, listen to "core suppression" Themes.
Here's some hints to your confusions with least possible spoilers
1. There's very few absolute evil boss in Genshin Impact, most of them are people or creatures doing things they believe to be correct, and the boss themes' main motivation are usually to tell their backstories
2. For most of the boss themes, the first part begins on the story of how you run into him/her
3. For why the first part of Raiden Shotgun's music is the one of Singanora's theme, is because in that stage they were against each other, and then Raiden took over
4. For Raiden, the game area backgrounded by Japanese is her home town, this is why you hear so many parts containing Japanese instruments
5. You will hear similar choir in a lot of boss fights, they are the theme of Fatui, an organisation doing "bad" things to prevent something they claim even worse would happen, and they are the support of those bosses
Have a good journey in Genshin music :)
Davi, i think it would be nice if you listen to some character themes from genshin.
All the characters have a trailer/demo with their own song. They are short videos(1:30~2:00)
Raiden have such a good song with japanese instruments mixed with synthesized sounds
The reason the beginning of Raidens theme is the same as part of Signora's is beacuse there is a cutscene of them fighting so kt transitions between Signora's angry theme ans Raiden's regal theme.
god, I hope you do a reaction to Scaramouche's battle theme from Genshin too. Mind glowingly good
