this is dope i can't describe how it makes me feel its like a dream i had in my childhood or a fairytale my mom told me about to fall asleep this is so amazing i wanna go back so bad
This music instantly took me down memory lane, of when my parents took me to 'The Enchanted Forest' theme park, back when I was a tiny tot. Ah, good tunes, that bring back good memories.
I always knew pixel art is an art form itself, not a graphical limitation that should be replaced by modern 3D realistic graphics. But dang i have not thought midi will have this magic too
I’ve been playing some old games using DOSbox lately, some don’t have music. This is perfect to play while I’m battling pixels in Castle of the Winds. ❤
I feel like there'll be an inevitable losing of the value of these type of music, of this type of art and style, the "limitation breeds creativity" type of style, in the past it was hardware, software limitations, now they'll have to be an act of restrain to make things like this, things like Shovel Knight that literally left the 256 color space on one pixel so they could have the right shade of brown they wanted. I don't wanna rant for too long but I just love this, I love this a lot.
MS-DOS graphics were clearly of something else. Accomplishing the like of this, with minimum amounts of ingredients compared to modern standards, just to entertain? Now, that's true dedication and fellowship for the sake of progress. I do declare.
If anybody else couldn't find the second track timestamped as "Eric the Unready - Track 6", I found it as "Eric the Unready - 03 Briefing (MT-32)" Nice, very novel playlist!
Erana's Peace is so good. I played that game as a kid and had a hellish time trying to get it to work, even on the relatively ancient computer I was using at the time. That game does not like modern machines. But it was a crazy experience, and it hit me with that post novel depression harder than just about anything else.
My dad ran an electronics store in the 80's, so I got to play Hero's Quest (Later renamed Quest for Glory due to the copyright issues with the name of the board game.) when it first came out. Erana's Peace was the song we agreed was the best in the game. Not too soon after he met a guy with a really high end Roland sound card who agreed to record every track from the game on to a cassette for him. We played it on our high-fi system for years! Such a great memory.
That Conquests of Longbow bard is such a blast from my childhood. I spent so many hours on that game. Being turned into a tree gave me nightmares as a kid.
Yo. This is awesome. Thanks for this. Obviously nostalgic for me, but even the young are appreciating that we've lost some kind of magic when they set their eyes on things like this
An amazing assemblage. Seriously life lived and loved informed this selection. Thank you for posting it in the town square for all of us in the TH-cam Kingdom to enjoy.
Who amongst us, in the year of our lorde two thousand and twenty three, has ears and hearts open to such divine sounds as this moving picture, as I do?
I can feel it coursing in my veins... It's getting stronger, hour by hour, day by day... An overwhelming influence, which I am powerless to resist... B O O M E R I F I C A T I O N
This reminds me of Mabinogi back in the day. Make your own midi music, make it into music scrolls in the game, make one for each instrument and hand them out to friends, and start a band. Always drew a crowd lol
Because of my early childhood, grinding for many hours on MMORPG, I have the ability to focus at a very tedious desk job to grind out dollars instead of XP.
Some of these tunes are surely inspirational and very fitting. The lute depiction, though, is hilarious, with that waaaay too long neck! 😀 P.S. Conquests of the Longbow is a timeless Sierra masterpiece, I personally play it every year, give it a try!
i should buy a lute
This is finally how I make it to the big time. Amazon affiliate link for lutes.

It was only a matter of time before someone recognized the magic that is middle age midi music!

you, of course, mean midi-eval music.
Dungeon synth
midi age
This style of pixel art looks like the old wall carpets I had while growing up.
Weirdly nostalgic.
Latch hook art
I hope it comes back.

I listened to this while cooking and I felt the authentic experience of being a tavern wench in an early 90's dungeon crawler game
misread this as a tavern wench in the 90's xD 1290s xD
The bard reminds me of Terry Davis.

I don't know how this video found me, but this is what I need right now
Whoop!
I can't imagine the self control it took to only include one Ultima song.
So true
YESSSSS
lmao
Got to say my first thought was “no Stones?”
Seriously the whole thing could be Ultima 7 alone
This is what it's like inside my head when people explain boring things to me.
This is just what it's like inside my head.
Lol!
Can you explain what you mean? I’ll listen to this along. Nhohoho
Lmao 😂😂😂😂
Lol dang
It’s not only nostalgic, it’s a tribute and a wonderful gesture for remembering and preserving those wonderful music from old games.
The bards face also preserve the memory of Terry Davis.
Ah yes, game dungeon synth

Thanks Ross

I couldn’t even name a single game, movie or tv show that would have this soundtrack and it is still infinitely nostalgic.
It's the robin hood game for dos
@@jdkayak7868 Thanks ima check it out
I know it wasn’t an MS-DOS game, but old school RuneScape had fantastic tracks of this caliber too
Yeah, amazing soundtrack, it's a shame things happened to turn out the way they did with the main composer

@@kaitlyn__L for a moment he thought he was living the medieval times
I was a hair too young to play these games in their heyday, but I've been listening to this on repeat for the past 3 hours. Freaking love it
DOS Medieval and Space games have such pleasant music
the warm, cozy feeling these tracks give... there is just something about it that you can't find in newer games. learning to use dos is worth it
Dosbox is the shiznit!
this is dope i can't describe how it makes me feel
its like a dream i had in my childhood or a fairytale my mom told me about to fall asleep this is so amazing i wanna go back so bad
But then you woke up and the fairytale/dream became real!
god that is so beatiful. I can't believe they actually made this music in the middle ages and the music survived until now
betrayal at krondor has some unbelievable bangers too
The masculine urge to rescue fair maidens from dungeons.

Do tomboys count?
That's just my basement

This opens up an entirely new YT rabbit hole... Fantastic job, EMX!
*This is a certified hood classic*
Its music like this that makes me long for a place I've never been, but somehow have never left.
Ahh, this takes me back to booting up Ultima V on my Dad's old IBM 5170.
This music instantly took me down memory lane, of when my parents took me to 'The Enchanted Forest' theme park, back when I was a tiny tot. Ah, good tunes, that bring back good memories.
hello fellow Willamette valley person
Heroes of might and magic anything is some of the best music period.
I always knew pixel art is an art form itself, not a graphical limitation that should be replaced by modern 3D realistic graphics.
But dang i have not thought midi will have this magic too
Modern 3d graphics ARE pixel art. Everything since the dawn of lcds has been composed of small pixel squares or rectangles.
tell that to developers of eg monkey island remaster
Hey, constraints make art, I always say! I love pixel art so much...
@@Daddy_DagothYou know what he means come on
Pixel art reminds me of tapestries of old
Love it from the first note
Oh MAN this unlocked a core memory of playing the Encarta Encyclopedia MindMaze on my parents' Gateway 2000. That BGM would fit right in this mix!
I’ve been playing some old games using DOSbox lately, some don’t have music. This is perfect to play while I’m battling pixels in Castle of the Winds. ❤
Total classic! Glad you're enjoying the tunes. :)
Kings Quest, The Bards Tale, Hand of Fate, Lands of Lore, Gobliiins, Indy, Guybrush, Sierra, Westwood...
This was the time.. :)
Don’t forget ultimate 8 pagan ;-)
I see you are a man of culture! Hats off 😁
This also, as it turns out, completely fits the feel of 80's table top roleplaying. I love this. Would watch and 'like' a version 2, 3, 4, etc.
literally nothing better to play D&D to, making characters and reviewing last session especially, thank you soo much.
Just woke up to a comment from THE EMERALD BOARS. Very exciting.

Throughout the past year I’ve come back to this so many times. I totally love you for this mix. It’s so relaxing and nostalgic. Thank you.
@pootz5627 WELL AIN'T YOU A SWEETIE. I just made it for fun, I'm so glad you enjoy it so much! Thanks for the lovely comment. 💖
I remeber first playing Quest for Glory and happening on the tree where the theme for Erana plays. :3 I couldn't get enough.
SAVED! I love the old school days of Amigas/ MS dos/ windows 95..... such a long time ago. Great times
I love everything about this so much!
Thank you, friendly stranger!

Lute up and Lute out. Its time to go get some Lute boys!!!
excellent, exquisite, captivating, mind blowing, bard tingling, divine, scrumptious lute
Amazingly well done! It’s always neat to find things that are novel and yet invoke such nostalgia. Anyways, I’m off to play King’s Quest lol.
Hello. I have just came here to post my Comment № 486 💚
This collection is a a masterpiece, keep in on!
This is dope. Thanks for the mix!
im in ABSOLUTE *LOVE* WITH THIS PLAYLIST, my rpg character is a bard, and this video makes me sooo happy!!!!!!!!

This discovery made my day! Thank you!

You brought me back to elementary school, thank you for those simple time memories.
You have a song from Quest for Glory on here, and my eyes welled up. Goddamn, those were good days
Man I miss those old Sierra games like Quest for Glory. They were SO well done--entertaining, challenging, funny.
Usually I don't like this style of video title but good work on this. Very nice I like it.
Do you joust with sausages? I'm intrigued.
Man this is an incredible compilation, thanks for putting this together!
I love this type of 90s computer game medieval music
Excellent taste. A mysterious spy/detective collection would be another nice addition to your different styles.
I’m so grateful this showed up in my feed!
This is some hardcore bardage right here 👍 🪕
No joke.. This is medieval for rock hard
Bardcore! 😂
The Rollercoaster Tycoon 2 medieval expansion soundtrack I needed but never had is now unlocked!
HOT DAMN.
I've always wanted to see an 8-bit Will Ferrell playing a lute. Thank you for making my dreams come true.
It's a crossover from Land of the Lost, where he played the banjo.
Holy shit, I wasn't expecting to hear Heroes of Might & Magic on this list. I'm 300% down. Excellent titles.
Eric sounds as ready as he'll get. Good luck lad!
I was sad, now I am happy.
I hope the happy sticks around!
So happy this video exists. Strangely nostalgic and no idea why. Makes me think of mind maze (?) the game on windows encarta 😂❤
I went hard. Thanks,
Framing this next to my university degree.
Egal, wie ich hier gelandet bin, es macht mich glücklich. 😅
Oh my goodness. The nostalgia is off the friggin' charts!
i hate to prithee thee to make more, but i never heard such a fine tune that makes mine legs breaketh down in a rancor such as this before.
Because of my early childhood, grinding for many hours on MMORPG, I have the ability to focus at a very tedious desk job to grind out dollars instead of XP.
THIS. IS. INCREDIBLE. MARVELOUS. WONDERFUL. AMAZING. LUTEFUL.
I do t care what anyone says, but King’s Quest is the shit! This just makes me want to play them all over again!
Some of these tunes are surely inspirational and very fitting. The lute depiction, though, is hilarious, with that waaaay too long neck! 😀 P.S. Conquests of the Longbow is a timeless Sierra masterpiece, I personally play it every year, give it a try!
got through de-stemming the last half of 1516 grams worth of soaked lotus seeds to these melodies. Great stuff.
Completely smitten with this comment, thank you.
the first two are just incredible catchy
I have no idea why I love this so much but I do. It reminds me of monkey island, lord of the rings, arcanum and ultimate 8 pagan all rolled into one.
This, this is what's needed in this world
UGHHH THIS MAKES ME SO NOSTALGIC FOR THE 1200's!!!
medieval midi music gotta be one of my favorite genres
I absolutely love the music of King's Quest!
Hi I thought his mouth kept opening closing jst cuz hes jammin but catching flys makes more sense 😆 Thanks for uploading!
