Edit: I actually realised that comparing Adam to Icarus might be a bit faulty, I think comparing humanity to him fits, but Adam is, rather unwillingly, taking the role of Prometheus instead, bearing a gift for civilisation but being doomed to watch helplessly, as he is the one plunging humanity into the abyss instead I know I'm extremely late to this but still, this OST fills me with such deep feelings, it is so iconic in an almost mythical way. To me it symbolizes the feelings Jensen has when reaching the very top, it is part of a reversed Icarus myth to me, the player is lead to believe that Jensen himself is Icarus, in a way this is true, but when reaching the Penthouse, you realise that you were wrong, you, Icarus, reached the sun as portrayed through the window lights, roof ornaments. It was not a literal Icarus, it was figurative and while you were busy, chasing your original enemy, developing a tunnel vision, in this moment you realise that you may have reached the sun but "down on Earth" the wax has already begun to melt. To me, this OST symbolizes reaching the height of the Cyberage, just as the confrontation with Rucker in MD symbolizes the very end of it, HR starts in the night, when you arrive in the Penthouse, the sun apparently reached its zenith, by the time you reach Rucker, the sun is setting. Thank you so much for uploading this, I must have listened to it uncounted times by now.

Something about this track... It's like from another world...

Jensen reaches the penthouse just like Icarus is reaching the sun. But is he the one whose wings will burn ? It's impressive how this place is telling so much about the story by simply suggest it with the breathtaking design (both visual and audio) of the room.

There are so many feelings appear in me when I'm listening this. That soundtrack sounds like the choir of angels in paradise. Michael McCann is genius, that's what I say.

Beautiful soundtrack, as everything else in this fantastic game. There is so much homage to Greek mythology and this scene manages to capture that perfectly. Can Zhao Yun Ru be considered a symbolic reference to Icarus? Not only is her penthouse almost "near the sun" on top of the highest skyscraper in Hengsha, but she took augmentation technology as a tool to get there. Her ambition got her there. Her greed, lust for power, and her will to stop at nothing without regard for how much blood she has to spill on the way got her there. And at the end of the game she manages to "reach the sun" by connecting herself to the Hyron computer and literally burns to death. Ironically, Hugh Darrow compared himself to Daedalus, Icarus' father. In terms of the invention of augmentation technology, that very much holds true.

Michael MCCANN is so underrated a ambient mastermind, I play deus ex music in my home regularly as I'm either doing tasks like cleaning or whatever, I can't get enough of his music

Immediately started looking for this song the moment I stepped into this room.

Now this is an office! An utterly beautiful setting only made more apparent by the music. Like the TYM upper tower labs, I stayed here longer than necessary looking around and going through Zhao Yun Ru's desk. Also staring at picture frames with NO pictures! You get a chance to see how ambitious and power-hungry she is.

You're right. The choral bits are removed in-game and are more prominent in this ost/version.

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY A MASTERPIECE. Michael McKann is a gift sent by God for all the people.

How far can a person's longing for power and wealth go ?, TYM's executive director "explains" it in great detail.

Zhao had renaissance style picture frames with no pictures in them. Interesting symbolism. Whereas Adam and Sarif have pictures everywhere. Suitsbher, I suppose. thanks as always for the upload, GA.

This music is like a blending of east and west.

Finish the Human Revolution with DLC, and i can say this is one of greatest game i ever play. I mean it's about you, againts all iluminati. badass

To self: It's just a strong incredibly well made ambient from a 10 year old game you are nostalgic for. That's all that is.

The rich live and the poor die. They're a mythological dilemma, made to fix the very problem they want to solve. And there's nothing to say, really, they can't be solved. Jensen's idea of humanity, at its core, is as tangled as the Earth it lives on. One man can save the planet, one can only witness it being destroyed. And that's exactly what leaves us with no choice but to love the people we have, and get through life with the people we have.

One of my favorite songs in Human Revolution. I love how it's a soft and sadder version of Tai Young Medical

Чем больше человек погрязнет в технологиях, тем дальше он уйдет от своей человечности. И будущее неизбежно, каким бы оно не казалось. А ведь представьте, когда то компьютеры даже человек не мог о них и думать. Что будет если наши души погрузить в цифры... Ведь человек творец и крушитель своего нынешнего мира, не бог и не разум... Мы люди - предоставлены самим себе, а бог лишь зритель.

The place coupled with this music feels like the perfect mix of a church and a modern art gallery

This is the best office in any game. I loved Sarif's office too though. But this is just heavenly

I have never even played any Deus Ex game ever. Not even for a second. But this music.. the whole music across both versions of the game - absolutely mind blowing! It makes me wanna play both of these games. Something about the soundtrack tells me this game will be as good as, if not better than, Halo CE.

This should have been the preparation for the final boss fight... The silence before the storm.

soooooooo relaxing helps me to sleep at night and its a nice background too

I haven't played this game in a decade but the score and atmosphere have stuck with me.

I found your channel a week or so ago. Massive Deus Ex fan, and now a massive fan of your channel. I listen to this music during work, meditation or even when I'm just arriving home. Cheers

One of my favourite soundtracks on the game

восхитительно

I have chills Everytime I hear this song and everytime I replay the same feelings return the first time I arrived here. So good. I even have a save point right before this area still. Amazing

Back in the day, we had a worthy game in the cyberpunk genre that let us felt very close what a Bladerunner-like world would feel like. Then came Human divided and in no time faded away quick enough for me to care, and the breath-taking even took my hopes on experiencing next level, now i'm just cool, i'll quit games for a while and take a peek some other time, maybe i ll be lucky to live it myself hahahaha 'i'm something of a scientist myself '

This is great switch from the usual apartment ambient. Thanks for doing this!

This is beautiful, thanks a lot for this! The music is outstanding (not entirely your fault :D), and also the video footage is great.

So if I'm understanding it right this is supposed to symbolize the dangers of overindulgence in cybernetics, considering the trailer for deus ex had a reference to the fall of icarus, on top of Tai young being derived from taiyang meaning "the sun" in Chinese.

Maybe my favorite location in the game. Or one of many, many.

Amazing Upload

У меня эта музыка почти всегда на будильнике. Она прекрасна!

Out of all the songs in the game, this one stopped me right in my tracks.

why does this theme blend together so well with the alarm buzzer? normally i find those annoying but this time i really didn't mind the slow process of stealthily eliminate all 9 guards

I'm glad some people are revisiting this game. I feel theres still much more to offer from Deus Ex....Shame games need to meet company numbers.

Fond, fond memories

This song along with aurora from hans zimmer are so unique and beatiful, like something from beyond, listening them make me feel in heaven. Literally, last year youtube recap told me that half of my time listening music in youtube 2022 it was this and aurora😂

Love this and this game..

Faudra que je me le refasse ! 'll have to do it again

Wonderfull ♥

It's like all civilizations meet in this soundtrack at once

Perfect music for reading Blame

You gotta make a version with the sirens. It's part of the experience lol

Deus Ex it is not about game - it is about ours humanity inside us

I miss God. I truly cannot do anything without him.

"I never asked for this"

Something about this

A panic room. She's got a goddamn panic room !

Nice ! Could you do a 1 hour version of The Mole ? There was one but the user deleted it

can you tell me please where did you get this picture? I only found it on internet with logo "penthouse" & that's the problem because I really want it without that logo, just like you have in the video, at max. quality

this penthouse is a hangout of a global elitist.

Imagine holding millions of lives & dollars in the palm of your hand and thinking you deserve a calm, serene office like this, guarded by soldiers and robots that are basically walking tanks.

Must be the Mortal Kombat 1 track

10:14 is that a credit card or password card?

The sound of the all pain the world is going through now with covid

This office is horrible, I wouldn't work there for a million dollars a year.
