    2:04 actually, the VAST majority of Arknights EPs are not copyrighted songs (or rather, MSR won't go after you for posting about it).
    2:11 Hoederer is the character featured in this EP. In the description of the official release of this song on the 'Arknights Official - Yostar' UA-cam channel, the singers are listed as Telle Smith and Sage X Price.
    3:04 No, this video is not actually official. The Arknights game is split into 2 servers, Chinese and Global (technically Taiwan too). The Chinese server is 6 months ahead in terms of content, so songs released on the Chinese server quickly gets disseminated to the Global audience before the 'official' release. Basically, if you see the 'Bilibili' logo at the start of the video, the video was taken from the Chinese video-sharing platform Bilibili and hasn't officially released on UA-cam.
    7:35 Arknights has their own record label called 'Monster Siren Records', which they release their music under. There are some composers/writers/singers that they work with more often than others, but generally it should be expected that there are multiple different people working on each song.
    12:15 Singer for Radiant is Mary Clare, again in the description of the official EP's MV on the official Arknights UA-cam channel.
    A few more things of note: Due to the gap of content between servers, at any given time there are ~6 character EPs and many more in-game OST tracks that are not released outside of China, so these channels that take the music from Chinese social media will continue to exist. Also, Arknights music is VERY diverse and is impossible to describe with a single genre (especially if you include the in-game OSTs).
    Character EPs like the ones you reacted to here ARE NOT in the game, they exist purely for the sake of characterising the characters. Event OSTs and special OSTs (such as Towerfierce, which you reacted to a long time ago) ARE in the game. Some songs in the Arknights discography are extremely likely to be copyright claimed, particularly the singers/groups that Yostar (the publisher for the Global server) collaborates with to make songs, as well as STARSET, DJ OKAWARI, Mili and others that Hypergryph (the developer of the game) collaborates with directly. Also, CC (Contingency Contract) songs will not cause a copyright claim (even if they sound like they might)

    Hypergryph releases plenty of Arknights songs that are not available in game but is on their official UA-cam channel, they usually label these as EP. These are two of those songs and the music is completely free.
    Hoederer and Nearl the Radiant Knight are playable units in the game.

      Ironically one of the only two other Arknights songs he reacted to was Speed of Light (DJ Okawari). I'm guessing he didn't run into any issues with that one. I know people haven't run into issues with reacting to Ambience Synesthesia 2024 which has Starset included, but I've certainly heard doing their tracks outside that can hit copyright.

    Some EPs which is the type of songs you just heard:
    - Eternal Flame
    - Miss You
    - ALIVE
    - Magic Theorem
    - [Believed Believes] Believing
    - Revealing
    - Everything's Alright (this one is another song from dj okawari for arknights)
    And some in-game osts:
    - Ideal City Boss Theme
    - Il Signore dei Lupi
    - Sheepnado Decimates Nomadic City
    - Control's Wishes
    - The Survivor, The Winner
    - Der Hexenkonig
    - Broken Sun/Merciful Broken Sun
    - Here A People Sows Boss Theme
    - Ratio Ultima (if I'm not mistaken this one is made by one of the composers for Dark Souls' osts)
    - Pretty much all the Contingency Contract lobby themes
    These are some favourites of mine and I'm looking forward for more ak!

    9:00 Hoederer is the character this theme is for. The composer for Settle Into Ash is Adam Gubman who has composed _many_ songs for Arknights and is a fan favourite.
    The composer for Radiant is Erik Castro who is also a regular. He makes a lot of the electronic songs in the game, including basically the whole OST for the Laterano events.

    Arknights has a lot of genres and they contract many artists to make the music, so the soundtrack is very diverse. Although many of them are electronic or at least include electronic so perhaps that is the most consistent denominator between all the songs

    Now you're stepping into EP territory. The previous two songs are actual in-game OSTs, while these are "character theme songs", produced by various artists for the game's own music label Monster Siren, mostly for promotional purposes. So yeah these two songs aren't used in the game at all, they might as well be songs instead of video game music. Still worth reacting to though!

    Yeah, I get what you were talking about in the end. You can tell these songs have a huge amount of work put into them, so they should work very well with other instruments. i don't think it's the same, but arknights has the Ambience Synesthesia every year, where artists play some of their songs live, and it's really amazing.

  • @owenyin3316

    Arknights has a really big catalogue of songs that covers a lot of genres and ranges from in game battle/event/menu themes to character/faction/group songs and seasonal releases that aren’t available in game; Towerfierce is a boss/stage theme(I think? been a while lol), Speed of Light was for anniversary but wasn’t in the game iirc, and that abyssal hunters theme was a stage/event theme. These two are character themes, so they get released on UA-cam with those live2d background arts/music videos but aren’t actually in the game. Most songs with vocals have guest artists and are composed by a rotating group of guest composers. A majority of the songs have no copyright issues too, so they can be played whenever; makes them pretty good for reaction/analysis content, lol.
    Also, on that Radiant video; that’s a video from an unofficial channel, but it’s the official art n stuff from the video on the official Arknights channel. Vocals are by Mary Clare from the band FORTS, song is composed by Erik Castro, and it’s probably one of the most adored songs in the entire community. Mary performed it live a few months ago at the annual Arknights concert in Shanghai as well, one of the highlights of the concert(video was recently released on UA-cam).

    AK music is generally split into two parts. One is the in game tracks (most notably boss tracks.) The other is EPs, like the two in this video, which are released separate from the game, are free, and typically represent a specific character, faction or event in the game, released under Hypergryph's (the game devs) own record label Monster Siren. As for recommendations...

    There are so many official character themes in this game, you don't even know what a rabbit hole it is. There are many amazing composers for this game, Adam Gubman being one of the most loud, many guest composers too. Besides DJ OKAWARI they also employed a few others, like Starset for example. Can't wait for you to hear a lot more of this game, you'll be impressed, how many genres it explores!
    You should also react to Broken Sun, it has parts of Settle into Ash motive, I'm sure you'll like it!

    Arknights is a gacha game, and among other things edit: Hypergryph (not Yostar) has used the income to create a music label, Monster Siren, that they make EPs under for every new character (in this case Hoederer & Nearl) in the game
    they often have guest artists doing these songs, both playing and composing, and they cover a very wide range of genres
    i've heard rumors that the founders of the dev studio originally wanted to found just a music label, but couldn't get capital for it, so they founded a game studio instead and use it as an excuse/financing to make high quality music, but i can't say wether that is true

    To give some context, yes Arknights is a mobile game, and in it, like most gacha, characters have different rarities. 6 Stars is the highest rarity, and all characters of this rarity get one extra benefit, which is their own theme song; that what what both of these songs are - the theme songs for Hoederer and Nearl the Radiant Knight.
    These songs usually don't play in the game, they're just an extra bit of promotional material as well as a bit of lore sometimes uploaded into YT

    Hoederer is a mercenary, but he hate war, he wants to be a academic and write books about the horrors of war, so the new generations avoid that, that's why the lyric has a deep meaning, also as a joke his an otaku and his oshi (favorite idol) is Eureka another character of arknights, these we're EP, so no in game music, if you have the chance watch the ambience synesthesia concerts, in the last one 2024, the singer of Radiant was there and is one of the favorite of the fans, she also sing a new song called 遗君 a theme for the character named Siege, the people in the concert love it, the concerts have in-game music and EPs, the one I would suggest is a new release of the concert name 魔王 (Demon King) is the third part of themes for Amiya (the main character) the first one is Wrathful Cerulean Flame and the second one Merciful Broken Sun, the first two are in game cinematics, but the third one is concert only at the moment
