Raindrop that fell to the sky is a long and soulful track, really conveys Chris' skill as a musical artist. They might as well be dead is a chill banger that uses the tabla with some bangin guitar melodies Con lentitud poderosa is an emotional piece that really only hits hard if you know the context of the game or the previous game, but it's still great from a musical perspective. Can't go wrong with any RoR track really.
Hi can you react to "When Honor Dies by Miracle Of Sound (Ghost Of Tsushima) - ALBUM REMASTER" think you would really like it :D Keep up the good work!
Man, I swear I have never seen any video game composer write music the way Chris does. His music is so odd just like the time signatures in most of his songs and that makes it so recognizable and unique. Combined with the strange and inhospitable world of Risk of Rain it makes for an incredibly exciting and notable experience!
Love the song, and it definitely has legs of it's own. But imo it's one that suffers from a lack of context. The long, melancholic walk in game is what makes it. Also the quote/poem that it's from is dope. Songs like this one, Antarctic Oscillation, stand on their own a bit more.
@@broad_cat It's definitely a piece that benefits from context, but it's not just one of my favourite Chris Christodoulou songs for that - he does some absolute bangers, but I love it because it imparts so much feeling and emotion with such a simple melody line, and the instrumentation where it counts is sparse but absolutely gorgeous.
Never realized it until this listen, but this song epitomizes that the way to make '1' hit the hardest is to not play it. Messes with your expectations so much between the 7/8, over the bar line hi-hat, etc.
I know I’m a little late but “They might as well be dead”, “The Face of the Deep” and “Who Can Fathom the Soundless Depths” all by Chris, are worth a listen. He’s a maestro, the entire survivors of the void EP that those tracks are from is phenomenal.
You should definitely listen to the track that gives *some* leitmotifs to this track (RoR's soundtrack is absolutely chock-full of motifs), aptly named "Arctic Oscillation". The original Risk of Rain is being remade, so maybe the ost will also have some upgrades as well, but the classic is a masterpiece
This track pulls a lot of ideas from a track in the first game, Arctic Oscillation. For example, everything coming together for a climax in 4/4, although both execute on it differently. This one uses shifting time signatures and polyrhythms, while the original relied more on Polymeter. They both also feature the same descending 4-note motif found in every track on the albums (you can hear it during what you called the B-section). You can really see how Chris has evolved his style over the years when comparing the first album to this one.
i understand this is much more to appreciate chris's composition but i can't help but envy your ability to listen. i find myself focusing on individual instruments, but it's clear that you take everything in with equal focus
I would like to watch you react to another song called A Glacier Eventually Farts from Risk of Rain 2 OST. It's not that funky or epic as other songs from that OST, but it so outta space, it has so much vibe, so you have no choice but to be carried away.
God I miss the time where the bug presents after the transporter fight (since usually the teleporter music, like this one, ends after teleporter event ends), where this music will persist after the event ends and since it's on the unavoidable stage of the game if you wanna win it, you are guaranteed to hear this play out at least once in a run. It is such a nice groove it's been a highlight of every single run I have had before the bug got fixed.
Here a little bit late, I'd recommend listening to Who can fathom the Soundless Depths? and They might as well be dead, both are in the risk of rain 2 void soundtrack, also as others have said con lentitud poderosa from the original soundtrack.

A Raindrop that Fell to the Sky pls

I'm sure I won't be the first or last person to say this, but if you're on a RoR2 kick - Con Lentitud Ponderosa is definitely one for the list!

Definitely going to need "you're going to need a bigger ukulele" from risk of rain 2 next
Never realized it until this listen, but this song epitomizes that the way to make '1' hit the hardest is to not play it. Messes with your expectations so much between the 7/8, over the bar line hi-hat, etc.
Yeah this song is definitely a great example of that technique.
I second the "you're going to need a bigger ukulele" guy
I know I’m a little late but “They might as well be dead”, “The Face of the Deep” and “Who Can Fathom the Soundless Depths” all by Chris, are worth a listen. He’s a maestro, the entire survivors of the void EP that those tracks are from is phenomenal.
don't forget "having fallen, It was blood"
that ones a total banger
I honestly can't think of a video game soundtrack that has better drums than this. They usually don't shine as much and I love it here.

Yeah, man the original ost is incredible.

Con lentitud poderosa is another banger from ror2 soundtrack
i understand this is much more to appreciate chris's composition but i can't help but envy your ability to listen. i find myself focusing on individual instruments, but it's clear that you take everything in with equal focus
If you can do that, that's good. Just do multiple listens. That skill is like anything. It augments with practice
My next RoR2 track of choice would have to be "Terra Pluviam"
AND HIS MUSIC WAS ELECTRIC🗣🔊🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Would love to see "They might as well be dead" by Chris Christodoulou, I just love his Risk of Rain 2 sound tracks!
You'd love the Purple Rain song from RoR2 Chris Christodoulou, def my favorite
I did that one already

The raindrop that fell to the sky is very good too
The soundtrack of ror2 alone makes it one of my favourite games
the little "bip" sounds in the backround are playing the leitmotif of Risk of Rain 1;
the ascending and descending pentatonic scale of 4 notes
God I miss the time where the bug presents after the transporter fight (since usually the teleporter music, like this one, ends after teleporter event ends), where this music will persist after the event ends and since it's on the unavoidable stage of the game if you wanna win it, you are guaranteed to hear this play out at least once in a run. It is such a nice groove it's been a highlight of every single run I have had before the bug got fixed.
if you want more risk of rain 2, Into the Doldrums and Once in a Lullaby are two more with fun meters
"the face of the deep" is another really good song of RoR
This is So Nobuo Uematsu for me, and his Black Mages😁
Like a super funky Benoit Widemann. This is very cool.
Pretty cool track!
Here a little bit late, I'd recommend listening to Who can fathom the Soundless Depths? and They might as well be dead, both are in the risk of rain 2 void soundtrack, also as others have said con lentitud poderosa from the original soundtrack.
lol the little look at 6:36
The ost of Risk of Rain 2 is so good.
I suggest you react to Sakayume (Nightmare) by King Gnu… this song is a masterpiece with fusion of funky rock and classical music. 😊
It reminds me so much of porcupine tree
Hoping for the day to see the song "Regression" in your channel.
Have you ever considered doing Minecraft OST reactions? Would be amazing.
If so, Aria Math is a community favourite if your interested.
Snarky Puppy vibes
