I'm 50... And this music is part of my childhood from the 80s... When the 80s TV version of Journey To The West 1st came to S.E Asia from China... Its a TV show that we rush home to watch, forgetting play, forgetting games...
singaporean/malaysian?
That main melody is basically hard-coded into the DNA of every Chinese/Asian Gen-X. It was the sound of our childhood.
Every Chinese person till Gen Alpha. Some younger kids dont know about it, but everyone else do
This is ancient Chinese mythology but also based on Chinese Zen/Tao/Philosophy. To appreciate the deeper meanings hidden behind all those details in the game, one could check out the Chinese novel “A journey to the west” or the Chinese Zen Book “How to be Happy: the Wisdom to Attain Happiness and Success by Constructing an Invincible Mind”
@@ArianaLee7890every Chinese watching TV in summer time would recognize it , including Gen Alpha
Black Myth Wukong's developers put in so much effort into this game. Not only the game, even the music was hell good.
This game has two endings. The bad ending gives you the ending song of 1986 TV series, and that's them telling you you are done. The good ending gives you this opening theme of 1986 TV series, and that's them telling you the new journey begins here, wait for the DLC.
Makes 100% sense
The beloved monkey king is known to be invincible, curious, playful, wild, freethinking, free loving, yet dependable. The symphony is originally written for the 1986 tv series on Journey to the west. It depicts the scenes of the monkey king wrecking a havoc in the heavenly celestial court, hopping, dancing, braking things, intoxicated with magical immortality portioned wine and magical peaches that he has illegally obtained (well, he stole them, essentially), laughing hysterically and and scaring the crap out the proper folks of the court. Then he is given the opportunity for atonement. The monkey king accompanies the monk, and three other fellows on a journey to India to receive scrolls of important Buddhist texts. The journey is full of hardships and threats, but the heroes fight together and finally make it to the garden where they receive the scrolls but also attain enlightenment. I hear the playfulness, silliness of the monkey expressed in this piece, and also hear the diversity of the culture and challenges they face in their journey. Finally, the heroic melody gives a very emotional and glorious climax to thier accomplishments. That very last part that feels hopeful and tender, that part is unique to this arrangement for the game. It is giving hint to how the true ending to this game should feel like😊
Before I was 11, I probably heard this music on tv 1000 times
Out of all the Black Myth Wukong sountrack I would highlight these tracks :
1. Destiny
2. Celestian Symphony
3. Nonsense!
4. Black Myth Wukong main theme
5. It will Fit me just as well.
6. Listen not
7. Flames have paved my way
8. I see
The Precept & the Web (戒网) is a good one too.
@@minhhoangthai4590 I would add the song from the true ending 'Unfinished'.
The Precept and The Web
i listen to this over 38years。。。
Same here
This theme was inspired from the original live action of journey to the west 1986 theme, so it's basically original theme but more epic
Yeah... A drama film "Journey to The West 1986" 😢

'tis a CLASSIC _TV SHOWS_
SPFX wasn't that great
The Actings were, and ARE _BRILLIANT_ 😅
It's a fiction story based on the true story, which records the journey of the hardship of the Chinese monk called Tang who learns Buddhist scriptures and brings them from India, the origin of Buddhism.
The original 1986 version basically means happiness and childhood to me
Many thanks - enjoyed your video so much! This is ancient Chinese mythology but also based on Chinese Zen/Tao/Philosophy. To appreciate the deeper meanings hidden behind all those details in the game, one could check out the Chinese novel “A journey to the west” or the Chinese Zen Book “How to be Happy: the Wisdom to Attain Happiness and Success by Constructing an Invincible Mind”.
This is the main theme - played when game is over.
This masterpiece was redone so well. Love it!
This is the true and only theme song for any JTTW and Wukong related stories for Asians.
this is the ost for true ending animation
In China, music school always have two sections, Chinese instrument and wester instrument.
You should try this game, it won’t let u down😮
Goosebumps
Love your video, nice job!
Yes this is a boss theme.
The og Chinese theme song of the 1986 live action Journey to the West TV show, and it's also the first piece of electronic music from China. Whole show is absolutely classic & iconic, multiple generations across most of Asia love the show. The marketing of this game is absolutely genius: we're fans of Wukong, you're fans of Wukong, here's a game where you can go on a journey to become your childhood hero, while you listen to the theme song of your favorite childhood tv show. Also the extra unintentional marketing in the Western market: rejecting the $7mil from Sweet Baby Inc to put DEI & the alphabet crowd in an Asian game of Asian mythological characters so thank you SBI for helping Wukong with his "journey to the west."
Nothing wrong with starting mellow. It's a great design choice that fits the genre/mood the game's about.
Imagine Lord of the Rings written in Shakespeare's time so its far more culturally infuential. Then in the 80s they made a TV show with an epic Star Wars level soundtrack with multiple hits.
If you're interested look up the other songs from the 1986 TV series, like Where is the Road, and 500 Years of Mountain and Sea.
Imagine on shroom with this song - gliding 😂
Hard to tell you, it is all about the nostalgia Star Wars theme for the Asian region.
yes all music in black myth wukong is that good. no doubt.
The overall quality of the entire soundtrack is up there with Murray Gold, Joe Hisaishi, Bear McCreary, Kenji Kawai, and oddly, Steven Chow.
How come nobody mentions who are the composers?
Although I’ve never read Journey To The West Novel but I grew up watching the 1980 tv series.
This song for Chinese just like star wars theme for America
star rail live 2024 concert maybe?😅
Star Rail’s music is rather mediocre. He’d be watching that for more the visuals than the actual music lmao
Soyjak
You look like Wukong👍👍👍
