I love how this theme persists through all three games. No matter how insane and dark the story gets, the galaxy is always a wonderfully beautiful place.
That track was so "immersive" when i first heared it. It so suits the atmosphere, is so peacefully and can be listened to for eons. Excellently executed.
@Jona Yeah like driving in that shitty mako on lifeless copy & pasted planets was soo much better lol. The side content in all 3 games sucked..the main story and characters were the good parts
I'm a Science teacher, and when I teach lessons about space & show that one Buzzfeed video titled something like "209 seconds that will make you question your existence," that shows the sheer scale of space beyond our Solar System, I mute the sound from that video (don't care for that background music), and play this theme in another tab continuously while I show the space video (pausing the space video periodically to explain something while this music still plays).
I remember the release date of this game. Unpacking it and playing it on my 360. Never have i felt such an explorative spirit until this music qued up. This music itself gives me hope that someday, humanity will reach the stars and find itself in a similar universe as this.
its crazy how often youll hear this theme in completely unrelated media. I came here to listen to it again after hearing it on some Karl Jobst videos and at least those are about gaming in general but Ive also heard it in crazy places like one of "Hoarders" TV episodes. Like I cant think of a more unrelated subject from space travel than people hoarding dirty homes 🤣 if you listen for it Im sure youll hear it all over the place, it makes me wonder if its considered royalty free nowadays or something?

Listening this almost bring me tears. How wonderful universe and history were created with this game
I understood by your comments your crazy for universe a new world a new legend awaiting for you in somewhere where you will be a hero someday somewhere.
It is much larger and varied than we could ever have dreamed of in our wildest imagination. Caught up on the discovery of Steam-worlds yet? There is so much more out there to find, and explore.
Reasons for using the Galaxy Map: 1. To listen to this music. 2. To actually travel from one celestial location to another (admittedly the primary purpose). :)
Can't count how many actual days I've spent in all my playthroughs, visiting planets, m i n i n g planets, exploring planets always listening to this... If I ever go to space irl, this track will definitely accompany me in the journey.
This brings me so much peace. I would leave it on when I needed a break from worrying about the galaxy and to let my eyes rest. And it would play in the background so long id foget where it was coming from, followed by a joyful realization and the resuming of my council sanctioned duties.
Seriously reminds you of how impactful mass effect was when it dropped. The feeling the first game gave you after what came before..it's hard to imagine being that excited about a franchise anymore. This universe was just an awesome independent evolution from what was built on the other sci-fi game from BioWare, KOTOR.
I actually got PS3 and had ton of fun BUT I stop gaming and few years later 2016 exactly I got myself 360 and this game got me back in gaming and it's probably top 5 of all my games and I'm getting old now 41 exactly so I guess I needed that amazing magic from Mass effect what a game what a trilogy
ME4 is apparently in the works, finally a new ME game after the trilogy! I just hope they do it correctly, Bioware has been on the rocks lately, i just want them to make an awesome game once more, like with ME1,2 and even 3.
Gaming Ambience so I have seen this vid in 4K and I really like it!! So I would suggest keep uploading vid’s in 4K. But not to all. The vids were the scenery is changed by a copple of minutes that is perfect in 4K👍🏻🙂
Yeah I definitely won't do this with everything, but special videos for sure. I do however plan to work with 1440p/60 with most newish games like Mankind Divided, Andromeda, Witcher 3 and even Dragon Age: Inquisition perhaps. Thanks a lot for the feedback.
Man I remember in the early mornings 2nd grade I would be getting ready and this playing from my brothers Xbox then all day this being stuck in my head, absolutely beautiful
This theme always brings me back to the first time I played this game. I think that's when I decided I wanted to pursue space exploration, within and without aerospace engineering
This is one of the best soundtracks from Mass Effect and I love how you included the Normandy's CIC ambiance here. It gives me all the nostalgic feels. This is perfection and I listen to this all the time.
Something I love about this music is its rhythmic ambiguity. It's in 4/4, but to my ear, some of the note patterns and accents imply a different meter and/or a different downbeat. So even though the bass notes are all whole notes on downbeats, the rest of the music makes them sound like they're on odd beats. I think this kind of ambiguity really reinforces the expansive feeling of the music. I could listen to it endlessly.
I think it’s called polyrhythm in this case, many sound signatures would be polymeter I believe. I think polyrhythm was a big part in Berlin School type music, which I think this piece is inspired by.
The Mass Effect soundtrack is the best I've ever heard, of all the games I've ever had to play. It's original, it's the perfect complement to that trilogy, especially when the game went on sale in its first installment. Listening to it is remembering Mass Effect. It's exciting, captures the essence of the game, and tells me about legendary space futures. It is impossible to forget those magical, wonderful and harmonious sounds.
This is the most iconic music of the entire series. This just carried you into the space immersion, what a piece of art. Could listen to this for hours ... Hope the next Mass Effect game will have this music too ...
I love how passionate every one is about a particular game in the trilogy. Each game by it's own right is wonderful, but everyone has one that they dubbed a "masterpiece". Kinda reminds me of Metroid Prime...
PBS Sinking Cities: Miami just played this in the backround. 11 years later and I had goosebumps before i knew why. Thanks for the nostalgia trip. Commander Korbana Shepard released the Rachni and talked Saren into commiting suicide...no regrets.
I made this into my ringtone back with ME1 released.... All I have to hear is the 1st few notes and instantly taken back. Really was a great time for gaming.
stop asking for fucking remakes/remasters. if sony cant make games backwards compatible on the ps5 what kind of shitty console is it. this trilogy does not need a remake or a remaster. the graphics for all 3 games are still beautiful. how come the xbox can do BC but sony cant.
relentless fighting, you just lost some random private, and you just uncovered that the main antagonist wants to end all life in the milky way. you just became a symbol of humanity for the stars, board the normandy once more, and this theme plays... pure bliss
What I feel when knowing that we are living in the Age of the Transformer. Listening to talk about adaptations of fantasy literature, knowing it all will come alive in just a year or two from now.
I literally made a dance routine for my feet during this. Probably lost thousands of calories to this theme. Also kind of makes it impossible to read the already impossible to process planet info.
Currently playing Mass Effect 1 (Legendary Edition) and in love. 🖤 Also I love going to the Galaxy map and hearing this music. This game gives me so many nostalgic feels I love from earlier gaming experiences and eras and is great so far story wise. Thanks for uploading, wonderful visual, too! 🪐
You know, I am so grateful that people consider donating. I will never force it on anyone nor do I want to throw it in anyone's faces like I only do this for financial gain. I put the two links up in my descriptions because I was asked over a year ago to do at least Patreon, eventually I did it for people that truly want to go that extra mile in showing their support. With that said, never feel obligated to do any of that stuff, just watching and commenting is enough for me. I have been doing TH-cam for many years across two channels and always did it first as a hobby. I love doing this and no matter how small or big the channel is I will never change the formula here. Any donations I do get I put right back into the channel (newer PC equipment, games) or it helps pay the internet and electricity bill. Thanks for the support!

That’s dope asf
Awesome teacher 😎
Keep inspiring young minds dude. If I was a kid and I hear mass effect playing whilst I was learning, I think I would have done a lot better.
I would love to attend that class.
There's nothing intimidating about it.
"I'm Commander Shepard and this is my favourite 1 hour of music on the Citadel."
heck yeah
Put more of the stuff in the thing stuff goes in
I remember the release date of this game. Unpacking it and playing it on my 360. Never have i felt such an explorative spirit until this music qued up. This music itself gives me hope that someday, humanity will reach the stars and find itself in a similar universe as this.
Word man
I remember it too. You just don't get this sort of feeling with games today.
yes I hope we will scientifically advance and explore the unknown shadows of the universe so we can clap them alien cheeks
Hopefully a future without the Reapers...

no worries

In case someone is watching for nostalgic or whatever reasons today, happy N7 Day
1:46. My absolute favorite part. Make me feel warm and cozy inside.
Best game I ever play. Its wasnt just a game. It was a life.
@@sajadenayat3989 Definitely
So, like, the one part in the song? It's a one minute loop.
Reasons for using the Galaxy Map:
1. To listen to this music.
2. To actually travel from one celestial location to another (admittedly the primary purpose).
:)
Mass Effect 1 is easily the best game in the series.
So freaking good.
What a game.
Agreed, it's not even close
To me it's ME2 but I definitely see where you're coming from. It's a close one.
The story was enthralling! I loved the reveal when you found out from Vigil the truth of what happened in the past... Chills...
@@dsilvermane0 playing second straight after first one is the best experience one could get
Nah 2 is the best. 1 is amazing though
Can't count how many actual days I've spent in all my playthroughs, visiting planets, m i n i n g planets, exploring planets always listening to this... If I ever go to space irl, this track will definitely accompany me in the journey.

This brings me so much peace. I would leave it on when I needed a break from worrying about the galaxy and to let my eyes rest. And it would play in the background so long id foget where it was coming from, followed by a joyful realization and the resuming of my council sanctioned duties.
I've been listening to this song for years. Having the actual scene makes it so much better. Thank you!
Not to mention in 4k!
Same...2011 and still going strong!
To this day, this is literally the best piece of gaming music I have ever heard.

The good Ol 360 days. Such a simpler time 😊
Even though I had a few red ring on me. I still consider it the best Xbox console. This game made me glad to own one.
I actually got PS3 and had ton of fun BUT I stop gaming and few years later 2016 exactly I got myself 360 and this game got me back in gaming and it's probably top 5 of all my games and I'm getting old now 41 exactly so I guess I needed that amazing magic from Mass effect what a game what a trilogy

This theme is science , exploration, curiosity and thought -provoking all in one cohesive sound.
Man I remember in the early mornings 2nd grade I would be getting ready and this playing from my brothers Xbox then all day this being stuck in my head, absolutely beautiful
I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite soundtrack in the game
This tune is timeless
i know makes me miss my old home 😢
good times
Best music for reading the wikis of planets.
This theme defines Mass Effect
I MISS HEARING THAT!!!! I MISS MY NORMANDY!!! The first one AND the second one!

@@АлексейПетровский-й6б My Russian is a bit rusty, but I think you said "Completely agree, I really miss the game."

Shepard out.
You may not like it, but this is how peak performance sounds like.
Best game I ever play. Its wasnt just a game. It was a life.
Wow what a comment now thats what I called to be fallen for kingdom universe .
This theme always brings me back to the first time I played this game. I think that's when I decided I wanted to pursue space exploration, within and without aerospace engineering
There will never be a Scifi saga as good and well written as the original trilogy. RIP
People still can get pretty close
Had to return here after legendary edition came out
This is one of the best soundtracks from Mass Effect and I love how you included the Normandy's CIC ambiance here. It gives me all the nostalgic feels. This is perfection and I listen to this all the time.
When Mass Effect still hold the mysterious. Oh the feel.
Times, when Bioware actually could create a legandary breathtaking games...
Back when the reapers were an unrealistic fantasy in Shepard's head.

Wish I could experience ME for the first time again
I WANT TO GO BACK!
We all do🥹🥲
I have this as my ringtone! Love this song. 😊
This is exactly what I needed tonight thank you!
Mass Effect is one of my favourite games of all time.
Do you ever find yourself trying to comprehend the vastness of the Universe? I do and no matter how often I try I just can't comprehend it.
I love how passionate every one is about a particular game in the trilogy. Each game by it's own right is wonderful, but everyone has one that they dubbed a "masterpiece".
Kinda reminds me of Metroid Prime...
The unequivocal space exploration theme 🙌

Thanks for the nostalgia trip. Commander Korbana Shepard released the Rachni and talked Saren into commiting suicide...no regrets.
I used this video as my Zoom meeting's camera background, now I am the gigachad of my group.
“After time adrift among open stars, among tides of light and to shoals of dust, I will return to where I began.”
For some reason this is the perfect work music for me... Nothing else quite calms down my monkey mind and gets me to focus like this piece.
I love it. This song makes me feel special.
Perfect working music.
I play this when I use my car GPS...
Perfect learning theme! Thanks! Please do more 4k stuff!
Mass effect 1 is the best in the series, because I become the first human spectre

I love this soundtrack. I play this every time I want to focus on something.
This song elevates the listener's IQ by 50 points.
damn it - i still miss this game so much! hope really for a remake/remaster for the Playstation 5 generation. would be so awesome
True 😉
Epic game in all history of Games 😉100/10 😉i start play again in mass effect trilogy after when i finish ME:Andromeda 😉and ME1 still look not So bad 😉

This is Commander Picard, and this is my favorite holo-suite on the star ship Enterprise.
I would frequently fall asleep while playing and it was always on the nap screen.
like skyrim
