This Saved the Armored Core 6 OST For Me

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 มี.ค. 2024
- The Disc 3 addition that just came out about two weeks ago has brought with it some incredible remixes and satisfying sound qualities that have really changed the experience for me, as a person who didn't really care for the OST of AC6.

My jaw DROPPED when I heard that. I did not think they would cover Steel Haze and somehow make it more grand than before.
The glitches voices, the heavier instruments. It’s heavenly and harsh at the same time.
tysm, had no idea this was out
This and Cinders are so absurdly strong
My message to FROM: "Let him cook."
Could we persuade you to go back to face balteus? AC6 has been a spiritual experience
“You’re out of luck. There is only one person that can keep up with me!”
Rusty is the best bro. Steel Haze gets me emotional every time.
It all makes sense when you realize that Mecha as a genre is typically the spiritual exploration of having hope for the future of humanity amidst our technologically driven self created hells (that is just one lens of many to contextualize things especially in the music)
Guess it depends on the series but in my experience, mech has more shows about the tragedy of war. But in this context, no the music makes no sense. You have up beat tunes playing while you slaughter workers on strike because the police didn't feel like dealing with it so they hired you to just kill them. Amored Core is one of those series where hope is in short supply.
@@ibysdagon4659 Yeah but in those games you are also a merc that doesn't give a shit.
@@nahuel3433 it's more you don't have a choice. You might be a merc but your also in an unfair system designed to enslave all but the best with debt. Besides, some of those Ravens don't have a good epilogue.
@@ibysdagon4659 First mission: slaughter workers because they're unionizing
Last mission: Destroy hiper-advanced AI that's keeping humanity in state of perpetual war
I dunno man. In the end, it does sound kinda hopeful.
@@sneek1015 it seems uncertain as said ai was keeping humanity from going extinct. And what happens in every follow up? More war for faceless cooperations making profit through slaughter. In fact the canonical player character thought that was a mistake and wanted the ai back. Gen 3 that lead to pretty much the destruction of the world. Well destruction of the world again . Which I get, AC: Farming isn't cool but still you never stop the core issues with society even if 2 was the most optomistic.
Contact with you is definitely about Arye. It plays again later in the game depending on the choice you make and this remix has the vocals from Cries of Coral which is Arye’s theme.
Contact with you is for both 621 and Ayre, that's why it shows twice.
Contact with you is definitely the theme of both Ayre and 621. 100%. It's their song.
There is also the name "Contact with you". This goes two ways.
I normally don't get too emotional about music but there is something about Steel Haze (Where Truths Meet) and this version of Contact With You started to make me tear up.
Something about the vocals makes me feel things. It's amazing.
I Still like the base Steel Haze (Rusted Pride) theme more, but in the reveal trailer there's this version with godly vocal mixing and drums.
More proof that Rusty is the second poster child of AC6 alongside NIGHTFALL Raven.
(Got his own figure along with Raven, Shown the most out of any pilot other than Raven)
The 16 tracks from Disk-3 are all phenomenal but "Takes Me Anywhere" was the cherry on top for me especially knowing how and why Shoi Miyazawa made the song and the Dev team acting as the Chorus is just so beautiful.
Armored Core IV has quite a unique sounding ost indeed.
I kinda get why some may find it kinda weird and not attractive but...
It really flourishes in the game itself.
These weird combinations of slow atmosphere and chaotic synths with almost no consistent melody really amplifies the FEEL of Armored Core IV
The feel of confusion and determination mixed with adrenaline and frustration with a sprinkle of sadness and hope.
Yeah thats a big weird mix that you cant really comprehend when you just listen to the music.
Nonetheless, never ever in my life i was so PHYSICALLY invested in a game like i was in Armored Core IV and music plays a HUGE part in this.
Does no one talk about The Man Who passed The Torch? That is literally the best dramatic boss fight music you can get. And I'm an ace combat fan.
WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THIS?!
That music adds a ton to that fight. Favorite last boss of the three, the atmosphere is so strong.
18:00 Holy shit, you describing the memories of melodies we hold with Apex in Circle as an example, feels like you could've played AC back in the day, with how accurate this is. Almost started crying.
That's exactly what a lot of us feel and man...some of us AC fans are old, aren't we? But it's nice to be back.
And I feel like with the amount of AC OSTs you heard, you know exactly why we all wanted to have a Soundtrack like Disk 3.
Freaking awesome take on the new songs, some of them I haven't even heard yet, but I agree, these are amazing, I kinda wish they were in the game!
Ngl my favourite osts are stargazer and steel haze (rusted pride) legit makes me go back and replay the game.
Context Squad! Post your Context bits here. I'll start. Armored Core Nine Breaker's Soundtracks are a bit more upbeat because the Nine Breaker Tournament is a peacetime AC game, dealing with a training and tournament program. The same goes for AC: Formula Front.
15:18 For the Steel Haze remix, I think it's genius they brought in the main synth that was used when you first meet Rusty when you climb the wall in his original "Steel Haze" ost. Just an amazing callback and great use to put that in there.
What gives me pause is that the remix feels like it's made to CONTINUE from the original. Like it was meant to play either when he has his second wind in the Fires of Raven route, or even a theoretical scenario where he managed to survive Walter in Liberator of Rubicon.
That effect on the lyrics near the start sounds like the filter they put over comms chatter in-game when their AC is going down. Marco feels like it's the humanity being stripped away, but if anything it sounds like the DEFIANCE of humanity in the face of being stripped away. Rusty refuses to go down until he knows his business is done.
I really love Kota Hoshino's mechanized memories and frequency
Partially the reason that Armored Core music is so unique is that I have heard that Kota Hoshino is all self taught. His style is extremely unique. It's super easy to recognize his music. Definitely one of the greatest to ever do it.
It's drum&bass, a genre people arent very familiar with.
Steel Haze (Where Truths Meet) makes me feel as if this is Rusty's theme when he's fighting the Interceptor Fleet solo in the Liberator ending.
There's a reason that Rusted Pride was the standout of the base AC6 ost. Specifically I think because thematically and practically it feels like an "old" AC song fighting it's way through to the forefront of AC6's more ambient industrial music score. It's nostalgia, but also an admission of how no matter how fundamentally AC changes, "it" is still AC of old.
I kinda want to thank ya Marco. I DIDNT KNOW that a third disk came out of the game! Started to hear the songs, and there phenomenal!!
THEN I HEARD…. “TAKE ME ANYWHERE”. That one song renovated my love of these games once again…..
(AND THE DEV TEAM BEING THE CHORUS OF THE SONG, WHAT A WAY TO SAY TO THE FANS THANKS!)
Never played or even heard of the game, until one of the tracks popped up in my spotify random shuffle list. It’s called “Rough and Decent (Bad Joke) and I really like one specific segment in there. Or at least I think it’s from this series… anyways interesting that this pops up now too
That one is such a banger! I love the piano segment
Thats one of the tracks by Shoi Miyazawa. He's one of the newer fromsoftware composers but he's already come out swinging with his work on elden ring and armored core 6.
@@glockenspiel604fun fact, shoi miyazawa started doing music stuff with fan remixes of armored core tracks
Takes me anywhere is my favorite track hy far. There's something special about how it's like, a love letter to the fans and at the same time being a track almost a decade in the making from someone who was new to the team at the time.
Cinders was a standout for me as one of the few originals for disc 3 of this OST. It is absolutely incredible and I really hope the next iteration of Armored Core features more music like this.
I do kinda agree that most of base AC6's OST was nothing too outstanding, it suited it's purpose.
(Though several like C-Weapon, Verification, Rough and Decent (Bad Joke). Basically all the late-game boss tracks were really enjoyable)
Disc 3's remixes really brought that sense of nostalgia and wonder back while also mixing up some of AC6's best picks.
Yeah but "suiting it's purpose" in this case became "we forgot our music's identity"
For the answer (for the mission) should have played during defend the dam where you fight all the branch members
Armored core 6 genuinely deserved a nomination for best OST last year, I know the music wasn't the same as past games, but the music in this game was still just phenomenal.
if it came out with these tracks it definitely would've
@@GrimNought Definitely, the tracks that came baseline with the game were very underwhelming for the standards of the franchise (on average, Steel Haze is beloved for a REASON)
Pretty dissapointed with that part, but at least this disc 3 has alleviated that.
It had good sound design but the soundtrack was not as good as gen 4 or gen 5’s.
some of the songs from these games almost make me cry. especially Takes Me Anywhere from the new ones
Thank you for covering this Marco! I've loved Armored Core since the PS1 demo disc and AC6 was a rare miss for me in terms of music most of the time. This soundtrack release has restored my hope a bit. Hoping to hear some stuff like this in the eventual DLC or expansion game.
Contact With You is probably in my top 50 of favorite video game osts. As marco explained this plays against Balteous when Ayre is helping you but what i love is how epic the ost is because in that moment Raven makes contact with ayre the fate of Rubicon is in your hands because SPOILERS you either destroy the coral and Rubicon in the process or you free the coral and let it outside the planet. This ost does a grest job of preparing you for this epic adventure you will have on Rubicon
such incredible songs, im so glad that they made these and that wantfastcars uploaded it
none of these songs had their lyrics released, even the ones from 4 and 4a, and they finally did with the vinyl release
i was waiting for you to drop this, i knew you'd love disc 3.
Personal favorite out of disc 3 was Stain -final version-. the ACV and ACVD soundtrack is really good, but stain stood out to me because of it's use of piano, which (as far as I'm concerned) is the only time it's used in 5th gen amidst it's military-esque ost filled with drums and guitars in V, followed by synths in Verdict Day. also, the lyrics are forever engrained into my mind.
Armored Core is an aesthetic, not just a series of games. Same for Bloodborne and Dark Souls. That's what makes these games so important imo, they manage to convey their own very unique feelings exceptionally well.
Man, you seriously need to play through this game, the music carries so much more meaning after you know the context. As a fellow Warframe enthusiast I beg of thee to finish this game! It is one of the best games I've played in such a long time, one of the best sci fi stories I've experienced.
Yes!!! Thank you for recalling what made Armored Core music stand out. I absolutely love all that was offered on Disc 3 for Armored Core, compared to filtering out the overwhelming ambient music that was the OG soundtrack for Armored Core 6. Hopefully the next Armored Core does justice to it's music legacy first time around instead of putting it on a third disc later. Hope we get the music as DLC!
14:52 is definitely my favorite moment in disc 3, all of the parts in the composition suddenly come together in a way that conveys both tragic clarity and resolve
So my tip for dealing with Balteus, the only way out of that massive ball of missiles is _through._ Find a gap as they deploy, and the second they start tracking in on you dodge forward at an angle to force the overshoot.
I give you this advice so you can get to the rest of the game, what sounds like good but otherwise unremarkable ambient tracks can suddenly become much more when the context of the gameplay is added on top.
I hope this helps, and I hope you develop the same love/hate relationship with Coral Guardian that I did after hearing it 40 times in a row.
Also if u use the pulse smgs they shred shields so dual pulse with heavy hitting shoulders
My first playthrough was a super fast, close-quarters build, so I didn't even realize the Ibis was meant to be super difficult; side-strafing the initial laser barrages and then sticking close and bursting down its ACS meant it only took two or three attempts.
Michigan, on the other hand, was a fucking _wall_ for me. Ended up cheesing him with dual flamethrowers, and I still only barely made it out.
@@TehCakeIzALie1 My build was similar, but a combination of the shoulder gatling being practically useless and my inexperience with using a Coral generator meant I burned too much energy dodging attacks that would've missed anyway, leaving me vulnerable to the big hits. Once I sorted that problem out that thing got pile bunkered into oblivion.
Slipping through gaps in the barrage and 'U.N. Owen was Her?' starts playing in my head.
Balteus is the check for player if they are confortable with the fightingstyle the game wants you take: Agression.
the missile barrages will punish you if you try to stay away to evade but are nothing if you push into it while all other attacks reward you from going out of your way to stay away from its front side
I'm really hoping they use the remixes and new songs from Disk 3 in some eventual AC6 DLC or expansion, because its too good to NOT have it in the actual game.
Edit: I think something I love about Takes me Anywhere is that you could imagine it like the dev team's feelings making the game, especially when it gets to "we just have to go" and the "all we" section with the literal dev team singing. You could even interpret it from a fan's perspective hoping and waiting for a new Armored Core game, having faith Fromsoft would someday make a new game even after nearly a decade of no Armored Core ("A vast and great space of emptiness" "Confusion and fear" "Souls burnin' on")
Armored Core music is truly special, from the lyrics to the instruments, there's nothing else like it.
disc 3 is so good and i need a verdict day style dlc that puts it in game
I agree, Mechanized Memories and it crazy electric guitar is still sth that amaze me until now
(Psst. Just thought I'd let you know, this vid isn't in the Armoured Core playlist - only found it cos it popped up in the post-vid recs from one of the other Armoured Core vids that is) As a lapsed fan, not having seriously played an AC game since AC3 on the PS2 (I did eventually get the 4th and 5th-gen games for PS3, but I never really sat down and played them, but I still missed out on the entirety of the rest of 3rd gen, after AC3 before IV), I have been LOVING your vids about the music. My brother bought me AC6 recently, cos he also remembers how much fun we had on them back then, and I'm seriously contemplating tracking down the entire 3rd generation on ebay and stuff for my replacement PS2 I bought a few years back, having foolishly sold my old faithful some time ago...
adore those picks brother
This is why i think Kota Hoshino is the GOAT. He clearly loves his music.
Every time I hear "Take me away," I remember Maximillian Dood due to that background beat that always starts his videos.
If you get a chance I would listen to Kota's Myspace tracks, they aren't part of Armored Core but they have the spirit. Several of them have been uploaded to youtube.
I really love Armored Core VI soundtrack.
It works, but it works a lot better in the context of the game.
The best version of Rusted Pride for me is the one with Rusty's combat dialogue mixed on top of it.
Still waiting for someone to do Cries of Coral with Ayre's dialogue over it.
We maybe have only a few of great tracks, but they are really memorable. Contact with you, Coral Guardian, Man Who Passed the Torch, Allmind and Cries of Coral are all amazing.
Please Marco, keep covering Armored Core music! It's just too good. Armored Core 5 and Verdict Day have incredibly good soundtracks, but please don't forget Armored Core 2 (a masterclass in electronic music) and Armored Core 3 and sequels ("Monkey likes daddy", "Artificial Sky", "Milk", "Morning, Lemontea", so good...)
Thank you to letting me know there was a disk 3
Finding out there was a new version of 4 The Answer on this 3rd disc put a huge smile on my face
I really hope that if we ever get any DLC to AC6, they'll go wild with the OST just like presented on disc 3
You gotta do a video on the original version of one of the other tracks on Disc 3, _Stain_ from AC5. Absolutely one of my favorite tracks from the series as a whole and emblematic of the heavy, grungy, overwhelming sort of rock that the FromSoft composing team leaned into from 4 onwards.
Armored Core songs feels special for me as a person and it brings great feeling when listening to them during any moment. I also wanna thanks Kota Hoshino to continuing creating these amazing musics for FromSoftware. To add about him, you can look up other songs that he made, and get the full Kota Hoshino Experience.
I 100% think they could have gone harder with the soundtrack and the music during boss fights in AC6. The battle sound effects during fights isnt as quite as important to pay attention to as it is in say souls games. I would have loved if they let the music just fully overtook during the big fights.
It is mostly due to the setting and tone of 6 I guess since Kota do have full freedom of the music in 6
I have no problem with AC6 ost because it was like Last Raven but more atmospheric but this new album is so good I want it in the game now.
For me fighting Balteus for 2 hours seriously has that ost stuck in my head.
Sometimes, i play through random levels of armored core with sound effects turned off and music turned up, just to enjoy the music
The new Encounter World was incredible, I loved the happy anthem vibes it gave, its so nice to listen to and THE MELLOW ELECTRIC GUITAR SECTION was incredible
It sounds so much like 4th gen... It's incredible how that remix came out
I’d have to agree with ya. It’s almost like they held Kota Hoshino back from showing us what he could really do cuz they didn’t want to make anyone think the music was “weird”
Kota was left to do what he wants with the OST. He chose to go the direction he did in 6, and it's not like he didn't do any bangers. Besides Contact with You and Steel Haze, we also got Unbreakable, Silent Encounter, the Man who would Pass the Torch, Cries of Coral, ALLMIND, and one of my faves, High Pressure
@@apophis7712 I don't care about others hating it, the new soundtrack fits more and sounds really good.
Only AC4 and forward do that too.
Hell yeah. I was so curious when you will take a peek at the new tracks, they for sure held back poor Kota back with what's actually in game and what's on this OST.
I LOOOVE this OST. It's so damn good. And that song with the entire Dev Team as the Chorus. FreQuency does it again!!
Another song that I feel is vastly improved upon is Carla's theme Rough and Decent. In the game it's almost a mix of an older gen 2 song and some Jazz style tempos. But the Disc 3 version dives deep into the Jazz. And it feels very much like a Cowboy Bebop or Noir style film. One person trying to figure out the events going on around them and most likely it won't end the way you think or want. All the while Carla keeps her trueself as calm and collected as possible. Going with the flow. "Whatever happens, happens."
It's a beautiful rendition that I would love to have seen in the game to highlight her character even more.
Especially since Jazz is engrained in the Gundam community. But that's a tale for another day lol
The newer Contact With You merges with Cries of Coral's vocals. Also you really need to finish the game. Just remember to stay closer to targets and have a punish weapon ready to rock. I recommend avoiding the shotguns because they're the perfect weapon for killing the Forest Spirit from the film Princess Mononoke.
Not only is rusty a good boi, but his builds just match the needs and desires i need in a mech. I pretty much started his builds as my mains.
The Armored Core series has always had such a great mixture of tones in its music over the course of the series. From hopeful, to terrifying, to heroic, to tragic.
I think the new Version of steel Haze is somthing special. It conpletely changes the meaning of the song. Its inspiring, but with a heavy air of sadness. The heavily distorted vocals at the start and end seem almost as if it were coming from inside a mech itself. It brings about the air of a Fighter who is going into this fight on Duty, but knows he will loose. Yet he rages still against the end.
yeah while i liked the ambient "hook", that droning synth present in teh trailer and that melodic motif that is present throughout the game's soundtrack, I really wished they had more of that old school AC feel even if it was just a handful more songs.
The music of AC always drives me to tears! Very happy tears I'm fortunate I discovered AC!!! It will be with me now & forever! Thank you Marco for elevating my love for AC take care be safe!!! (=
I grew up on Armored Core. I have always loved the music. Started on the ps1 demo disc that had the demo for AC1 on it. Played almost all the PS2 games as well as AC4 and For Answer. Ever since I discovered the Frequency album a few years ago I haven't stopped listening to it. Kinda funny that back when I was a kid I didn't really pay attention to who the games were made by. It wasn't untill I was older that I realized that Fromsoftware made AC as well as the souls games. I played the original Demon's Souls on Ps3 as well and Bloodborne and Elden Ring are both some of my favorites. FromSoft really has been apart of my life for a long time and I just didn't realize it.
The AC4 answer one gets me every time, the original game we used to run blade only tournaments with that very song in the background, no guns, no rockets, just 1v1 matches with full lobbies with just blades. The remix feels like the gloves are off, the blades were put away, and the guns were ripped from the ground in a brutal fury of metal and shell casings.
Left a like right away just for the react clip
An ambient,intense and remarkable ost of ac its last raven
Great breakdown and i totally agree, disc 3 definitely redeemed the OST for me.
Anyway, attempt 2 at asking you to react to the neotokyo soundtrack, if any tracks specifically Annul or Tin Soldiers
A side note, the new drum pattern heard in Rusted Pride (Where fates meet) around 14:15 heavily reminds me of tone and pattern from the Mimic tracks from Ace Combat 7, as well as an unused trailer track
I actually heavily agree with you on AC6’s soundtrack. I was expecting the tunes to be more frantic and hard, and I ended up blasting my own playlist on repeat playthroughs. I’m really glad Disc 3 has these songs because they’re so much fun
AC6 ost feels like for some reason they were afraid of the old ost, even when the entire community pretty much agrees is all bangers.
I have no clue why they felt the need to have so much ambience, you could put me a random track of AC6 and I may not even recognize where is from. (I mean main game track, not boss track and such)
But put me a random track of 3rd or 4th gen of AC? I am telling you WHICH MISSION is from just from memory.
@@corsnake6959nothing too wrong with the new music if it still had bangers in the new style for big fights and boss fights etc, but it just didn't.
@@corsnake6959
That's because there were fewer songs in the old gen albums
Plus I could do the same thing for AC6
it's interesting how you describe that tense, gripping your chest feeling as "oppressive" when to me that's *my* power. that's the g-forces crushing me into the pilot seat as my 10 meter tall war machine slams through the atmosphere at mach 3
Glad to see you came back to ac. I feel that ac 6 sound track is limp compared to previous entries. Panther is ac4 first mission song and it completely blows ac 6 outside of the water. Could you check out the armored core tribute album THE ANSWER?
Ohh you finally do disk 3
I really like steel haze,Rough and decent and Take me anywhere .
Take me anywhere chorus is just dev team karaoke night
Wait we could have had this in game, I need to buy this, brb.
They had to nerf kato for the general audience to not get information overload from the heat he making in the studio.
I've been with the series since it began, and I loved them all, but I didn't expect to love any game as much as I do AC6.
I personally really like the original themes of AC6 a lot, the music captures the desolation of Rubicon really well. That said, I do not mind ambient music.
Btw, could you take a closer look at specific composer works, how their style changes for each game but also how their signature still carries through? For example, Mick Gordon has made a variety of different genres for different games outside of his most famous work for Doom. For lesser known composers might I suggest Tim Follin? His boss music for child-friendly mascot platformer Plok! from 1993 is something to behold! You'd think you are listening to CB. You'll know what I mean by CB when you listen to it.
Got a link to this three disc set soundtrack or whatever its called? I'm trying to look it up, but nothing is popping up.
ill attempt to ask again that you check out the motorstorm apocalypse soundtrack specifically from the shockland album
Only I can fly high enough
@MarcoMeatball after this you need to checkout the Gundam Wing Endless Duel OST from the SNES.
Funny thing about Armored Core music is that it's an evolution of their previous music. That's what I like about Armored Core music. If you listen closely to the older music, the original score has always been there in some way or form.
Its not Balteus Battle theme. Its theme of first connect between Men and Corall. And its about the hope in living together with alien, non humanoid race in symbiosis.
Hi Marco ! I was wondering if you ever checked out hunt: showdown songs ( they are made by a cool band called Port Sulphur) ... hope you like them and make a video .. love all your videos and the way you explain the emotions that the songs are evoking..
Please, please, adopt this music for the sequel or expansion.
Here’s hoping the 3rd disc gets a digital release
21:22
ALL WE WANTED
ALL WE WANTED
ALL WE'VE WAITED
ALL WE'VE *GONE THROUGH*
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA🗣🗣🗣🗣
Thats is really unfortunate, that 6 lack of more Frequency style soundtrack, and more 80s style sci fi sound. But when it should hit it hit like a track with Rusted Pride. New versions Like Coral bangs too. But for me get more inspiration from Ace combat more
Did they update the game soundtrack?(i have the ost but don't remember)
I love how the formula front song is completely unchanged, like someone in FromSoft snuck that in for new players to hear and discover
Anyone got the name of that last ost? Such a banger
Take me anywhere
Can you look at the soundtrack for Steelrising? No one talks about it and it’s so good!
6:50 and as someone said on the TH-cam video for The Answer
“And here comes WHITE GLINT WITH THE STEEL CHAIR”
I feel like Disk 3 is _The OST to be listened outside the game
Yet the OST in game is always accompanied by missile warnings blaring, guns blazing, thrusters outputting masive thrust and high octane rush of adrenaline...
Which makes the whole of AC6 music now... complete.
Little later than expected, but that doesn’t matter. I’m so glad you gave AC 6’s music another chance. (Oh and I also prefer music track 3)
Anyone have a source of the "Contact with you" that marco said was better? I cant find it anywhere!! 😢
Contact with you extended, look up something like armored core 6 ost disc 3 contact with you extended. You should be able to find a playlist with the whole disc 3 album.
I absolutely despise that some of these tracks aren't present in the baseline game.
I really don't care for "music needs to allign with the atmosphere" argument, because good music is the one that ends up creating the atmosphere.
What really disappointed me in the base game is how the more orchestral pieces reminded me too much of Souls games, whilst the techno was not better than the techno in Zone of the Enders (another mecha game), which created a sense that they forgot their own identity of music for this franchise.
Turns out, I was wrong, and they simply hid it from us all this time 😭
