@@NathanIsYappin I did notice a bit too late that I missed parts of the quote I wanted to spin-off, but to Hel with it. I don't wanna soil the moment, I admit.
Something that I kind of love with the play-based storytelling of _Bionicle_ is that by keeping answers a bit vague, it allowed kids to tell their own chronicles. It is kind of like telling an ancient legend, where not everyone's perspective is truly the definitive one. There will always be differences depending on the chronicler. Kind of helps to sell the idea that any kid could be Takua. (Even if he was difficult to find parts for, since you really need a spare Jaller and Nui-Jaga.)
The fact that the choir is you and you didn't just track down whatever sample was used is such a great show of your sound mixing skills. It sounds so close to the original, you fooled me.. Bionicle fans are lucky to have you around for these. Thank you!
well most of the samples i haven’t been able to find, i’d say like less than 5% I prefer to find them because of accuracy but I enjoy the sound design aspect
@@essengerbionicle That's crazy! To me, that just showcases your incredible skills on top of adding a newer flair to the songs with more clearer, better sounding samples, synths, etc. Mad respect!
Mmmm, the brain has been rewarded this day. A video I did not know I needed (the chorus is splendid), and I can say that it was well worth the time invested. Well done Essenger, you have once again made me sad that they discontinued Bionicle!
IT'S DONE IT'S DONE, ohhh how I've been looking forward to this ever since you made the poll 😭you did it justice, no question about it, all the rich mythical vibes and auditory storytelling are so beautifully conveyed 🙏fully immersed in a distant age with this one
I've said it before, hearing these songs without compression artifacts in high fidelity is something I've always wanted ever since I heard them. And here you are doing it. I don't think I can properly articulate how glad this makes my inner child. Thank you.
1:02 Kinda miss how the loud percussion used to be one beat earlier in the web animation. But still, this is a pretty incredible recreation of that music. Well done, Essenger.
Holy gadunka, this is amazing! It sounds like a combination of Bionicle music, Dune music (before the midpoint) and Halo music (when the snare drums kick in). I love it!
You are a goddamn hero for remastering these tracks. This game had such an underrated soundtrack, and that compressed version is so painful to listen to.
Man, it was released just a couple of days after I published my 2001-style stop motion video where I used this original song. Maybe I should upload a 'remastered' version :D
hey have you ever thought about remaking and extending the theme that plays when gali fights the tarakava? its such a banger but its a shame its only so short

I'd say this is the number one piece of music to stare at walls to.
BABE WAKE UP ESSENGER DID A NEW THING
A chronological chronicler's chronically chronical Kraana-Kal chronicle.
My inner child wants to spend the next 30 minutes translating the wall :(((
I love the feeling of old bonk so much. this is beautiful

Awesome!
“Ok, so in this scene, the player is staring at a wall, so don’t worry about making anything too epic”
Hans Zimmer:
You mean Justin Luchter?
I'd go as far as to say this is THE THEME for Bionicle. Like if there was a massive movie, this would play at the opening titles
All fun and games until zimmer and luchter come back from the grave and make a bionicle track
The Bionicle community is blessed to have you and your absolute treasures
Man, I always wished we had this in higher quality. This is beyond awesome!
“Another great chapter to add to our Wall!”
Of course you translated the Mask of Light opening and put it on the wall, lol. Honestly, that's perfect.
i like decompiling the flash games and comping together my own moving backgrounds to keep it fresh:)
@@essengerbionicle is there any chance you can make this into a wallpaper for wallpaper engine on Steam?
"Soon, we will have another great chapter to add to our wall." - Turaga Vakama, Bionicle: Mask of Light
That is the way

I love that subtle tune at 0:45 reminding you The Makuta is always lurking in the shadows.
This would make even Kopaka smile, absolutely gorgeous!
Mate this is absolutely spot on like, you're nailing these remakes!
I'm getting such nostalgia from this! I remember trying to translate this whole wall. I had it all written at one point.

You're absolutely nailing those remakes!
Holy crap!! This is my favorite track from MNOG! Thank you!!
i loved bionicle when i was little
Some bionicle fans are fans cuz the series has lore. To me, its Culture
These vibes, they are the vibes of childhood and serotonin 😌👌
Thank you for this, Essenger! 💜
Many thanks for the remaking of these tracks, letting them stretch their legs after years of being locked in a compressed state

When that ooooOOooOOOOO hits just right
Probably would've paid attention in my History class if this is what the history textbook looked like.
Me when I finally realize what I came into a room for...this does not happen frequently
Mmmm, the brain has been rewarded this day. A video I did not know I needed (the chorus is splendid), and I can say that it was well worth the time invested. Well done Essenger, you have once again made me sad that they discontinued Bionicle!
I have GOT to listen to this over and over 😮💨
Symbolic and spiritual are the two words to describe this work alone.
Honestly regret never getting into these old games back in the day, would have blown my little mind.
You can find and play them pretty easily nowadays.
IT'S DONE IT'S DONE, ohhh how I've been looking forward to this ever since you made the poll 😭you did it justice, no question about it, all the rich mythical vibes and auditory storytelling are so beautifully conveyed 🙏fully immersed in a distant age with this one
Bionicle music can make the most mundane things like staring at wall seem intense and amazing
I'm a bionicle guy. I see Essenger uploaded, I click.
Oh wow!!
This is so good!!!
You uploaded this at just the right time. I was feeling pretty down. Thank you for making my day better.
OH MY GOD. This is one of my favorite tracks from early bionicle. I never thought I would see a modern remaster of it. Thank you so much for this!!!
So close to tearing up.
just got chills listening to this.....
this makes me so nostalgic it actually kind of hurts, good stuff
Love this, one of the most nostalgic tracks of the franchise!
Looking at this way late, you're doing a massive service for the Bionicle fanbase Essenger.
so hype. i was just thinking about bionicle again a lot this week you read my mind
Essenger is giving our musical childhoods the high quality treatment we all wanted for years. Thank you.
I've said it before, hearing these songs without compression artifacts in high fidelity is something I've always wanted ever since I heard them. And here you are doing it.

Thank you for the spiritual healing.
Love to see more of these remasters!
This shit goes so hard! Good job!!

You’re highly talented. Always looking forward to see more of your work 👍
You are a goddamn hero for remastering these tracks. This game had such an underrated soundtrack, and that compressed version is so painful to listen to.
I can play this all day and relax thank you sir !
LOVE this...sounds a lot like the Mass Effect soundtrack as well.
Man this hits right
STILL WAITING ON THE BATTKLE IN THE SKIES REMAKE
(So good though
Keeping it alive
There are parts of this that is giving me vibes to the soundtrack for The Fifth Element
tears in my eyes
You're legend! KEEP IT UP
this reminds me of halo ost so much, actually
Very Halo like in some respects.
Essenger being unable to miss
imagine if legoland made a bionicle themed ride like the lego indiana jones ride this would be music would fit perfectly
Ohhh BABY LET'S GO
Man, it was released just a couple of days after I published my 2001-style stop motion video where I used this original song. Maybe I should upload a 'remastered' version :D
all rise for the national anthem
this shit is so lit dude
My soul just ascended
Since you did this theme, any chance you can do the Amaja Nui sequence? The stones?
Battle in the skies next?
This gonna be PC wallpaper.
TAAAAAHOOOOO
hey have you ever thought about remaking and extending the theme that plays when gali fights the tarakava? its such a banger but its a shame its only so short
I was just messing with that one today
@@essengerbionicle omg!!!! thats awesome

Essenger x SuddenlyOranges cross over when

I used the legend of mata nui from the novel version
