    Best aspect of the series is how Dark Samus is Metroid Prime reincarnate. A hyper evolved metroid that assumed the form of the only corporeal entity capable of defeating it. And so the final boss of every Metroid Prime game is, in fact, Metroid Prime.

      well most metroid games and mangas include some doppelgangers of samus (and even her ennemies have some), or strong parallels between characters.

Haha I love this kind of epic sounding music period, i appreciate the effort you put into your work, so whether it'd be Metroid related, or not, your masterpieces are worth buying. Plus, it's not the end of Metroid, as new music follows, I'd hope will too.

    • @SamoStudios
      @SamoStudios  8 років тому +2

      After licensing fees & royalties, and then vendors like iTunes and etc taking their own cut on top of that, I get almost nothing out of my work being on those sites to be honest, and even then it takes several months to receive any sales. Going through Loudr.fm works out a lot better for me, at least it is monthly. The main thing is, I always release full albums via all the popular music sites, but single tracks aren't really worth it. However, I put it on UA-cam so everyone can listen to it either way. Patreon provides not only an interactive community with supporters, but a stable monthly income. With iTunes, months go by without anything at all, and there's no way of tracking sales income so I never know what to expect and it's not very much. These sites are great for popular high-volume artists, which I am certainly not.
      So as a token of gratitude to those on Patreon helping me out, I give out my albums as well as individual track downloads. Which again, are often free to listen on UA-cam. But, at some point, I'll bundle related new tracks together and release album collections, which will be on the main music stores.

    For some reason, I see a bit of story playing out in my head when I hear this music, in a manner that mirrors the final bosses of Super Metroid and Metroid Fusion.
    At 2:16, the Metroid Prime has overpowered Samus and is about to kill her. But suddenly, at 2:31, a ball of light hits the Metroid Prime and briefly stuns it, freeing Samus from its grasp. Reeling, Samus looks up to see where the attack came from. And then, at 2:44, she sees the Chozo Ghosts that haunted her throughout their temple ruins, now having regained just enough of their sanity and identity to remember their true purpose for lingering after death: to end the Great Poison, the Metroid Prime itself. The Chozo Ghosts continue to attack the Metroid Prime, but by 3:10, the Metroid Prime has defeated them and turns its attention back to fighting Samus. Finally, at 3:41, Samus remembers the fallen Chozo and is empowered by their memory and sacrifice, finding the strength to ultimately vanquish the Metroid Prime.
    Sounds like a lame fanfic, I know, but it's the mental image that this song gives me. I just love that vocal rendition of the credits theme.

    Once upon a time, a Hunter fought the Metroid. Then, she met a Metroid which stole an aspect of herself. The Metroid became HER, except corrupted and dark. The Metroid BECAME a Hunter too. As a demon, it unleashed impending doom upon the galaxy, having turned into the Hunter themselves. But, as a demon, it was eventually defeated, by that Hunter.
    Then, once upon a later time, a Hunter sought, and was infected, but saved. And so, the Hunter BECAME a Metroid. But this time, it was not a demon, but a Hero. This time, the Metroid was a savior. Just like a legendary entity known as Razgriz (in another setting). The first time it rose as a demon. But the second, it rose as a hero.
    Now, having become the very thing she once sought to destroy, the Hunter now guards us all from the X, and perhaps even far more horrendous existences.

    • @SamoStudios
      @SamoStudios  8 років тому +9

      For a complex song, I've spent several weeks working on a track before. Because I am self-taught I don't really know much about orchestration theory so I often experiment for a while to figure out what sounds best, and also the fact that it takes forever to load up all the instruments and the computer often crashes in the middle of working really slows things down. But that's getting better since I've finally been able to afford better parts to build a good PC and get newer software since for years I was using pretty old stuff.

    • @EpsilonChurchRVB
      @EpsilonChurchRVB 4 роки тому

      It's stated in Prime 2 that Dark Samus cannot be destroyed, even beyond the subatomic level. This basically hints that Dark Samus may in fact be immortal as Phazon is only capable of disrupting her, not killing her completely.
      However, there's still a lot of plotholes involving phazon, such as red phazon itself (which only appeared in Tallon IV's Impact Crater), the origins of the leviathan and Metroid Prime itself from Prime 1 (since both of their characteristics are unique from other leviathans and other Metroids), the true nature of phazon's origins (as Phaaze couldn't possibly be the only true origin of Phazon when talking about the vastness of the entire universe in existence), Phaaze's vague explanation on its true origins (as Phaaze could've been another ordinary planet that suffered total phazon corruption; a fate that would've affected Tallon IV if it wasn't for Samus' efforts), etc.
      In conclusion, it would still make sense to bring back Dark Samus once more as not only will they explain some of the vague details about phazon itself, but it would also be interesting if we see her not only as a blue phazon-like creature, but as a red phazon-like creature, decaying as time goes on, becoming almost twice as powerful as she was before, since red phazon is apparently 86% more potent than blue phazon. If red phazon still exists and is able to be used as a weapon, red phazon could potentially destroy Dark Samus for good as it is much more unstable than the properties of blue phazon. This is all a mere theory, but I just wanted to express how it would make sense to make her come back once more.
      If anything, the Metroid hatched by Sylux in Prime Federation could be the next Metroid Prime like @Steve said, but with phazon's origins still being vague, I doubt Sylux would even know anything about phazon experimentation, unless a group of rogue Space Pirates have taught him a thing or two about it. Not to mention he'll need vast amounts of phazon (or a phazon core itself) to make it turn into a Metroid Prime.

      he probably went almost full symphonic for the parts that are also used in the other metroid prime battle themes as he already remixed it in corrupted souls using metroid instruments, but everything else is really good, it just lacks those phazon crackles on top of it to be complete.
