Or so _bad_ at it. These songs are giant trainwrecks that only seem to be good from an ironic standpoint or because they're so damned creepy they just sort of work.
@gamer gunk You're basing that on, what, your biased opinion that the music is good? How does that make you any better? The music is literally a compositional nightmare. No sane person would ever think that this is objectively good music. If you like it, great, it has its own appeal... but it's hardly even music.
This song is so overbearing it makes me feel like I’m holding my breath. It’s so insane and all over the place, it’s like the musical personification of my anxiety.
@@ManiacalForeigner oh, we had a whole playlist of nightmare songs. The title theme to Rad Gravity, Sonic Dark Brotherhood, plus we had a sub woofer so we could really drive people nuts hahaha
This song is hilarious. It’s such a clusterfuck of noise for like the first thirty seconds, begins to mellow out near the end, but BOOM, snapped back to reality when it loops and starts the cycle of madness once again. Awesome
I actually really like the concept of a song that gains and loses focus. At times it's confusing and chaotic, but after a few moments it finds itself and settles in, before getting lost again. Sort of like navigating a big, busy marketplace.
You know how sometimes a game or puzzle or even an essay just clicks and you feel like you've fully mastered everything, just for a few minutes? That's what this piece feels like when it hits.
I really like how it feels like walking into a new, unfamiliar marketplace, and then there is that laughter and all of a sudden all of the disparate pieces come together into something that makes sense.
@@FingerSpazm I love this trend that's been going on for ages of game composers not knowing shit about music and composing the biggest bangers of all times, take Dingaling with Lisa as an example
Its actually really good. Its like two layers playing over one another but the actual discordance between both is eliminated by a solid mixture in the center mix.
Funny thing is I've heard miserably failed attempts at what this track accomplished. Look up Sanctum 2 - The Invasion. Similar merging of two discordant tracks but with absolutely nothing tying them together.
just started playing this game ... i cant help but think that one of these two things occured ; Kota Hoshino was just allowed to do whatever he wanted (based on his message about the OST i assume this is the case) or , because the shop is so cut off from the rest of the game/world , he wanted to simulate the hecticness and hustle and bustle of a marketplace/bazarre through the music instead . the vocal samples do sell me to this one quite a bit as well . all in all an absolutely wonderful song , what i imagine people in medieval times would create if they had the musical tech capabilities of now ! exceedingly whimsical
After the first 30 seconds, it stabilizes into a pretty nice song. After listening to it 5 or 6 times I can even say that the beginning is pretty good, after you learn what to listen to and how to listen to it.
Evergrace ost is just like chimarrão and blue cheese, It's a thing that demands time to understand and like, and once you do, It's way better than the likes of simply wine
SO SOME GLORIOUS LEGEND BLEW MY MIND THIS WEEKEND AND PLAYED THIS ON BBC RADIO SIX. I thought barely anyone else played this game, let alone liked the music LET ALONE LIKED IT ENOUGH TO REMEMBER IT AND PLAY IT ON RADIO. I was extremely visibly excited in front of my friends and whoever it was, thank you you made my night!!
This is my third time listening to this song and I’m scared by the fact that I’m going from ironically listening to this chaotic mess to coming back because Im staring to unironically enjoy it as it grows on me.
Khaixzer after subsequent replays for laughs I can truly see the beauty of this track and now don’t regret ever finding this by chance from the RE basement theme
@@cptsonicbelmont Honestly, once you get past the chaotic lutes in the beginning, it's pretty awesome. And even with the beginning being a turnoff for some, it's still a lot better than a lot of the actually bad game music out there.
I listened to this music around 10/15 time, and after this, you start to see the harmony in the chaos, and separate the various "songs" that play together. It's really really cool
I discovered this from a playlist of bad video game music and this is so genuinely beautiful, I LOVE it. It has a sense of familiarity I simply can't describe. It's just so... Incredible and unique. I felt like it connected with me even though I've never heard it before. It's chaotically peaceful, definitely a favorite of mine. Kudos to the composer for such an incredible masterpiece of a track. I'm going to play this game now just to experience this in full.
This is actually a really good idea, and since people will be spending a good amount of time here they knew people would get to the part where it comes together. Making a piece that starts out disorienting and moving through a bunch of different musical spaces before settling down into a nearly predictable rhythm is a wonderful way to represent entering a busy marketplace.
When I listen to this, I picture a group of 12 year olds having a water gun fight in a Home Depot,and having to duck and weave through everyone and everything else. I'm not kidding. It's so high energy and there's such a sense of childlike wonder in this piece. Once I got that sense of wonder, everything clicked. Nothing is bad about it, it's just busy.
Its a mess but kind of a beautiful one. I feel like it could become the next hot hipster internet genre; Just give it a pretentious name like "Bazaarcore" or "Chaos Folk".
This music sounds like browsing medieval marketplace/ Festival during rush hour, filled to the brim with all kinds of merchants and jesters while the bards are playing their best tunes.
Back again a month later. I love this music, everything about it. Where people are hearing multiple songs playing at once, I hear organized chaos that is cohesive. I love the drastic shifts and changes, and the happy vibes. Some say it belongs on list of worst video game music (which is how I found this in the first place). I would put it on my best.
Have you ever been so good at composing music that you accidentally composed two pieces in one?
Or so _bad_ at it. These songs are giant trainwrecks that only seem to be good from an ironic standpoint or because they're so damned creepy they just sort of work.

This must be the most hectic, stressful marketplace in existence.
So basically wall street.

Talk about a store with variety...

the start really is the most hectic part. once you get past it it grows on you and becomes actually quite beautiful
I dunno what weed you had to smoke to get to that mindset but I need that shit asap

ok this is genuinely really fucking good and interesting, it's like if trout mask replica and a regular fantasy jrpg soundtrack were combined

yea its like if TMR wasnt as dissonant. maybe theres some steve reich in there too?
Hey what's up
it takes a while for your brain to "get" it, but once it does, it no longer sounds so complex and is so addictive

This whole soundtrack is genius, especially in the context of the game. Like music from another world, but still giving off the intended emotions.
This song is really captivating for some reason.
I love those rare occasions where you find music with a completely unique but interesting sound.

It's got a good drop at 00:15 but man that intro just fucking blasts you like a modern Rite of Spring goddamn.

It sounds like they had three guys working on this, each sitting in their own apartment without communicating
And a fourth guy mended them decently
just started playing this game ... i cant help but think that one of these two things occured ;
Kota Hoshino was just allowed to do whatever he wanted (based on his message about the OST i assume this is the case)
or , because the shop is so cut off from the rest of the game/world , he wanted to simulate the hecticness and hustle and bustle of a marketplace/bazarre through the music instead . the vocal samples do sell me to this one quite a bit as well .

This is very Avant-Garde.
"it sounds bad during the first 30 seconds but it gets better later" i'm genuinely surprised he didn't get a "redo this" note from fromsoft
because its not in-game
The funny thing is that this IS the redone version :D The in-game version is indeed a bit more subdued.
