I'm so glad I got to listen to this again after so long. Hopefully I'll listen to more Ori stuff soon! And if you haven't checked out my Hollow Knight videos yet, check em out here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z9uElqp50c-0n5c.html

Actually when you said "action sequence" it was right, this theme is originally played during an escape sequence ! Water flowing everywhere, it's an iconic moment

There are some real good songs in the sequel Ori and the Will of the Wisps too, you can clearly see how Gareth Coker has grown as an artist as well as extra funding from the success of the first game. Not to mention the other good songs in the base game (Climbing the Ginso Tree, Up the Spirit Cavern Walls, etc.). The definitive edition of Ori and the Blind Forest also has SO many amazing songs in it too and I would love for you to break down more Ori songs (as well as Hollow Knight too). Great content! :)

I can be wrong, but if I remember well, "Light of Nibel" is a kind of medley of Ori soundtrack, thats why you got so much different emotions in the song. Both Ori's games are very good and have a very good soundtrack if you have time for it you should try them.

The Ori soundtracks are basically the reason I even picked up being a musician and I'm so happy for that. Anyway, great video analysis! And yes, the games are amazing.

Even though Ori is a story told with a very few words, listening to it's soundtrack almost always makes me tear up - it's both a pure beauty of the tracks themselves and how they portray emotion and the sad, grey sided "no good or evil" story that makes my eyes watery - after playing the game you know very well that all that happens is just unfortunate sequence of events and rules of nature that create this story and I think it makes it more tragic - you can't really point a real villain after finishing it so you just feel sad for Kuro, Ori and the whole forest that things ended up how they ended up and honestly I don't know if I ever cried for any other "enemy" as hard as for Kuro - she did nothing wrong and yet payed highest price for the events that happened because of some really bad weather and unlucky events later. It's like watching one of those stories where someone had best personality and lifestyle and yet life was kicking them for nothing... exept in animal form and animal stories like this hit me even harder for some reason.

Ori and the Blind Forest, Hollow Knight and NieR: Automata have one of the best soundtracks in the world of video games in my opinion.

I still get goosebumps all over my body when I hear this music. As corny as it sounds to say, this music touches my soul in a way that few other pieces do. Also, the parts where you assumed an "action sequence" are absolutely on point! That part of the credits is absolutely the sequence used during action sequences! You got it right, sir!

YESSSS!! It feels like none of the music reaction/analysis channels have touched Ori yet, and it's so ripe for it. I've been waiting for this.

light of Nibel's beginning makes my eyes water. Ori games soundtrack are a gift to our ears. Theres something really special that makes them standout of alot of videogame soundtracks Ive listened in the last 20 years.

If you want to see more of Gareth Coker's stuff, especially how his growth is, I highly recommend the track "Ori Embraces the Light" from this games sequel. Even without context this song is a musical masterpiece the way it moves and evolves is so good and really gets to show Gareth and his talent in this field. The emotion that he is able to portray in a non lyrical setting is masterfully done and adds so much to the story. Truly a work of art.

Ori is one of my favorite game series of all time! I love Blind Forest's OST, but I have to say, Will of the Wisps has some of my favorite tracks between the games. Silent Woods in particular always brings me close to tears. It's just so devastating! It would be amazing if you checked out that track next, or heck, anything from the second game. They're just so good, and I wonder if it's just my tastes or if there is something special to them that makes them stand out more than the first game's songs (areas songs, in particular, the first game cinematics are something else imo)?

To be fair, "Action Sequence" was spot on since that part is from "Restoring the Light, Facing the Dark", which plays during an escape sequence and happens to be my favorite song from the game.

The most emotional metroidvania game. Love this videos

You should review "Mora the spider", from Will of the Wisp. I think this track has one of the best transition from 1st boss phase to 2nd. For me, its one of the best track this amazing game has. Edit: you will recognize very easy how this song is played through the boss fight.

I've been ice skating on this music (light of nibel+rushing the lava) and it felt so good. This is pure adrenaline

I never would of guessed this was put for the ending credits but it’s such a wonderful piece. Maybe will get around to playing it someday

3:45 you're not very wrong about it being an action sequence... this section is used in bossfights

If you want to keep looking into the leitmotif of the Ori soundtrack, " Mora the Spider" from the sequel game "The Will of the Wisps" is absolutely fantastic.

If you’re planning on listening more to Ori and the blind forest soundtrack, I recommend The Sacrifice, one of my favorite tracks of the game!

I literally cant listen to this sound track in public because i will start to cry from how beautiful it is

This is one of my favorite video game soundtracks.

Been so many years since i played this game, however as soon as i saw naru and ori i just started shedding tears. This game is a gem, a lasting impression.

These games have one of the most beautiful soundtracks i’ve ever listened to and the games are amazing and tell a story that is just as beautiful as the music. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for something to play.

I really need to play the Ori games again, I might prefer Hollow Knight as a Metroidvania but the platforming and movement in Ori is truly fantastic, the art is some of the best I've seen in any game, and the soundtrack helps it feel like a movie. All of it is truly fantastic, two of the most emotional games I've ever played. It's a shame that Moon Studios apparently isn't the greatest place to work, because the Ori games are up there with Hollow Knight as some of the best Metroidvanias I've ever played.

In my opinion, Garett Coker goes next level with Ori and the Will of the Wisps (the sequel game). The whole score is, in my opinion, mind blowingly good, but in particular “Into the Storm”, “Now Use the Light, We Want to See!” And basically all three tracks that play in the desert really stand out to me.

Loved this video! Ori brings back to many memories, it was a very emotional game and the music just amplifies that 1000x

Finally, my dream has come true. You have no idea how long I've waited for this

I my god, you really are hearing music from some of my favorite games, I really love how you are able to guess stuff of the games just from the music, your videos inspire me

Man! I somehow totally forgot about this game! Thank you A LOT for reminding me of it and thanks for the great soundtrack breakdown💪

definitely react to literally anything from ori and the will of the wisps. I highly recommend either "escape with the memory of the forest" or "shriek and ori"

All these years my sleeping music has always been The Spirit Tree OST by the same composer - Gareth Coker.

Wow, this was really beautiful and magical. The repeating melody was giving me Nightwish vibes for some reason! I like how the melody evolves throughout, like the characters on a journey. Very nice! Thanks Davi!

I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO APPRECIATE THIS GAME'S SOUNDTRACK. THANK YOU!

Great video as always! A couple of years ago, I listened to Ori OST first, before playing the game. It was already so amazing, but how wonderfully and magically every pieces sound and come to life in the world-building of the game and my playthrough! I like beautiful and poignant melodies of this piece which give me a feeling of transience of life, on the other hand, it also has powerful vibes of hope and rebirth. It feels like the cycle of the seasons. Absolutely stunning. Thank you, Davi!

Shriek and Ori - very dramatic, fro ori and the will of the wisps from the final boss fight

Dude i frikin love all you videos

Never played this game, but so far nice soundtrack. 👌

I'd love to hear you do more Ori soundtrack analysis or even play the game one day!

I played this game because of this song. I heard it and said: ok I have to play that game.

Im so happy to see you listen to Ori soundtrack. I'd love to see you react to more Ori related music : D

After the emotional roller coaster of the game, this song with Arealie Brighton's vocals absolutely swept me away.

Ori has some brilliant tracks perfectly accompanying the other pieces of art that together combine into one of the most beautiful experiences I've ever had with a video game. 😊

Found your channel about a month ago and I enjoy all your videos! I'm sure you've seen this suggestion a million times by now, but I'd love for you to break down one of the many masterpiece soundtracks from NieR: Automata... Keep up the great work!

Wow! First time hearing and DAMN it feels like… heartwarming Good stuff

Ori is one of the greatest series I have ever played, and the soundtrack is a straight up 10/10!

Been a while since I watched your stuff. I had to take a break from yt and videogame. Congrats on 30k dude you definitely deserve it.

I’d love to tell you the story, but I think it’s better to experience. I will say it’s very bittersweet though. Love your vids, keep up the good work.

I remember a cover you did of an Advanced Wars song from a while ago. I just saw your Hollow Knight and Ori videos recommended, two of some of my favorite games. It was cool to hear you try to decipher what part of the game it might be from just by how it sounds.

Davi, I love your channel! I don't always leave comments, but I'm so glad to see you succeeding and your channel growing! Keep up the great work!

I can't impeach myself to imagine the actions of the characters in my mind and connect them to the chords you describe. I don't know if it's the same in your mind or if you focus in the recognition of the chords only... Or maybe both :p ! This song deserved to be analysed by you! Amazing job!

I love Ori and its soundtracks! They are so wonderful and fit the visuals/story of the game incredibly well!

Can't stop watching your vids. Found you from Hollow Knight. Love your analysis!

doesnt matter how many times i listen to this ost, i always start crying. Really really emotional soundtrack in general, you should check out their second game Will of the Wisps too :)

I had the same feeling as you about the melody. I haven't played Ori in a long time but I immediately recognized that core melody! I think it's played in multiple tracks during the game's many climactic moments .

such a bittersweet song for a bittersweet ending to an amazing experience : )

Beautiful piece of music :)

I never noticed the contradicting chord progression before! Thank you for deconstructing this piece. ^.^ If you want a track that tells a story & really shows Coker’s evolution with Ori, I recommend Mora the Spider from the sequel’s OST.

I’m playing this game through for the first time and IT’S SO BEAUTIFUL! I’m smitten. I know this song plays for the end credits, but I keep listening to it because it gives me hope to complete the game. I have to admit, it was so difficult at times that I had to take some breaks, haha. That’s coming from someone who thinks From Software games are relaxing too. Ori is a tough one. Nevertheless, I still adore it and its music. The art direction of the game is so gorgeous too. This song just perfectly captures the essence of the atmosphere and story. Great reaction!

From other Ori tracks, I can recommend "Restoring the Light, Facing the Dark", "The Waters Cleansed", "Riding the Wind" and "Completing the Circle" from the first game, as well as "Ku's First Flight", "Use the Light, We want to See", and "Escaping a Foul Presence" from the second

>No it's credits. No, this theme is used in action at least once - it's obstacle course when water is chasing you.

When i hear this music in that perfect video game i couldn't stop hearing that it was the best song and the game i ever played and Heard

Its nice when music talks to you

Ayyy he wasnt kidding when he said “Ori music coming soon”!

hey davi thnx for ur awesome videos . i really enjoy games music and i think one of the games that u haven't made a video about is the witcher 3 musics the witcher 3 has one of the most unique musics i have ever heard . if possible plz make a video about witcher 3 musics too

I love blind forest but will of the wisps was a crazy transcendent experience thanks to the music. this composer does Halo now which is really cool

Got me crying at 2am again bruh

Hey man, I love seeing your thoughts on moving pieces like this! If you like Ori’s OST, and you haven’t reacted to it before, I would highly suggest giving the Journey soundtrack by Austin Wintory a listen, especially Apotheosis. No video game soundtrack has ever impacted me as strongly as that one. Years later it still gives me chills and brings tears to my eyes, along with the game itself being a work of art. It’s so underappreciated I think, I’d love to see your thoughts/reaction!

Ngl the first chord in the sort of sneak peek section just reminded me of giorno's theme from jojo haha. All seriousness though, this is a great analysis of a beautiful track and I'm really loving your uploads!

Love ori would to see the dashing and bashing theme on this channel

The leitmotif of this track is present all over the rest of them - 3:55 can be heard in different variations at 1/3 and 2/3 points of the game, the second one being my favourite due to the flute addition

Both games from Moon Studios have gorgeous songs, specially the ones related to certain places, and the display of music during the final arc of Ori and The Will of the Wisp set's a perfect ending for this story. P.S: it would be great if you analice the theme Shriek and Ori from Ori and The Will of the Wisp.

Do Frostpunk next!!

I know you're a professional in music because everything you said, which was purely based on the analysis of the music itself, was right. I played the whole game and it was an unforgetable journey. Thanks for your sharing.

ori has the best tracks i've ever heard in my entire gaming career

holy cow how I love this game is indescribable

Ori is such a chill, somber game about grief, and sorrow, and the music is all about that, even the tense songs, and battle music arn't realy as agressive as you'd expect. its such a beautiful game, story and music.

ORI!!!!! I LOVE ORI!! Absolutely amazing

i love your analysis of music so much and i'd love to see what you think of Okami's soundtrack. particularly the sun rises, but the entire soundtrack is brilliant to me. ori is one of my favorite games of all time and i don't think you could have picked a better song!

Ori ost just hits you right in the feels

I love this game

I love Ori music! All of it is so good. And Same with Ori and the Will of the wisp! I highly recommend checking out the "Shriek & Ori" song. Would be nice to know the light motif as well for it but awesome none the less!

Hey Davi, nice work on this one. Usually you stop the track often but one could see that you like it so much and want it to keep playing, wich i can understand. i played ori and loved it the songs in that game are insane. Do you take recommandations for other tracks? if so where can we submit them?

Ladies and gentleman, he finaly did it! amazing job!

Oh boi, now he's listening to Ori. This was the one that got me started on this journey of indie platformer/metroidvania stuff. This Ori and the sequel, then Hollow Knight, now I have been doing some Blasphemous.

This track hits different when youre climbing the tree

The game is about sadness. The forest is dying and almost all of those who depended on it died as well. The game tells the tragic stories of those creatures. And that all happened because of the tragic story of Kuro, the final boss. The game ends happier than when it started, which is comforting. But the tragedies still happened, and they can't be undone. The ending is more like an hopeful ending than happy. The second game though, that's sad. I just didn't cry because I had played a sadder game before (Spiritfarer), which made me more resistant to it.

Damn I love this music. This melody is the main theme (leitmotif?) of the game. It plays in diffrent ways in diffrent parts of the game like here. I always adore choir or some vocals in music. Now pardon me I think I got something in my eye.

Light of Nibel is one of my favorite tracks ever! Instant click

this game music are absurdly good.

Hey, thank you for making this video. I am currently helping a friend who's lover suicide. It is very heavy over here and it is the first day in a week where I got to take care of myself and it was planned for days that I wanted to watch this specicific video as a reward when the time was right. Watching your video made me cry. I love this song and I love how you look like a good man. A beautiful soft man, close to his emotions. Seeing you lost in music land was therapeutic for me. It was beautiful. Continue your good stuff! Sorry if my english is bad, I hope you understand me haha.

Eso sin dudas es una obra maestra x dios

Total Annihilation react next please. This was composed by at the time a relatively unknown Jeremy Soule, who you might recognise from some other smaller games he composed for later in life such as Baldurs Gate, Star Wars: Knights of the old Republic, Guild Wars, DOTA2, Skyrim etc etc. I'm certain that Total Annihilation was his first live orchestra soundtrack, and I'm also certain that a blind react video is what the people want to see.

Burrowing, Shriek and Ori and Approching the ruins are my fav ost from Ori and the will of the wisps. You should react to bonnebottom from Silksong too it's amazing

I'm a simple man. I see Ori, I click

Certified game music journalist.

The music for these games ori one and two and absolutely astounding. I wonder what you’d think of the Shriek theme from ori two, one of my favorite pieces of Gareth Coker is when he takes the dark suspenseful themes from the final boss and builds it up as it’s power, then as you start winning against the boss the main theme comes in and combines with the boss theme. The song Shriek and Ori does this amazingly well, it is in the title name after all. Give it a listen!

Even if you're not a gamer you must try and sit down to play both of the Ori games. They are very approachable and the way the music works with the amazing story is excellent.

The ori games are my 2 favourite games ever! I love them to death, not only because of the beautiful soundtrack. I'll be interested to hear what you have to say about it

THIS. IS. MUSIC. ❤❤❤❤❤
