I really like the pattern of them using a theme to represent our feelings like how we did with saving Azhdaha and Raiden 2nd phase is the theme of Inazuma.
@@piyushverma7534 The boss themes, their phases and how epic it gets slowly represents not us but the boss themselves and their desperate struggles to defeat the traveller. In this case, it is Apep's former glory and epicness shining through her deep pain in the form of Warden of Oasis as it slowly turns green.
What I notice something different from this boss theme is that it noticeably sounds a lot less menacing than the others (not that it's a bad thing) and there's more of a sense of urgency to save or protect something which is more or less accurate for what happened in Nahida's story quest. The theme isn't as "angry" as the others even though Apep herself claims that she'll never forgive or bow down to Celestia, but moreso describes the anguish she's been through for thousands of years and deep down actually yearns for peace and rest---which Nahida thankfully gave her by the end of the quest.
That’s a really good point. Although the music definitely felt urgent, I wished they’d made the fight feel more urgent somehow (minus adding a timer). That sense of urgency is why I fell in love with the Osial boss fight.
Some pro ppl(ppl with high musical talent) say this theme is more of our theme rather than their theme... "our" and "their" here refer to us and the enemy, unlike all previous boss theme which is play as "their" theme(like the theme for that boss, by that boss), this Apep theme play as "our" theme(like the theme for us who fight the boss)... you can get better explanation(because im bad at explain thing) by visiting their channel
@@Zkr7 maybe we can sum it up with this: while other boss themes show the power, the ferocity, the authority of that boss in their domain, this boss theme shows the eagerness in the eyes of us, the Traveller, ready to take the boss down.
This battle theme sounds more intimate in a sense that the battle is more than just one of hard feelings. Someone commented it and I love how they said it. They said this track exudes grace, might, and beauty---althought it doesn't sing it in ballads. Which really makes sense
IKR I'm kinda disappointed with the third phase, Because of its lack of HP compare to the second phase. I just want to vibe with epic music while fighting it.
Sumeru's OST is just built different from the rest of the previous nations. Heck, even the city's own theme is too epic for it to be just a "city theme".
The time period and culture based inspiration carry the music as well. Each nation represents the real world culture and traditional music also. Not all games can do this. That's why in my opinion, music in genshin is phenomenal.
Hearing Monstald and Liyue music: This is so good, they cannot top this ost Hearing Inazuma music: This is perfection, they cannot top this ost Listening to Sumeru music:
It's always fire when the Photons of Fluctuation leitmotif shows up. It would be really fitting if all the Sovereigns had it in their themes when they get released later. The original rulers of Teyvat should have the leitmotif of Teyvat.
@@JosepiThe13th Dragon King is alive though (reincarnated after war, I think), according to Apep words. And Kokomi probably reincarnation of the water dragon (Constellation Sleeping Dragoness)
@@JosepiThe13th It is unknown if they're all dead. We know that Nibelung(Dragon-King) is most likely alive again and a new generation of sovereigns is rising anyways, given the hydro sovereign's prophecy.
This version of God-Devouring Mania is so good especially with the ending also combining that electronic segment just brings a nice touch to the theme of Sumeru.
Everyone always hypes Scaramouche’s boss battle ost but I will always praise this one and put it at the top of my list for best battle soundtracks in Genshin. I just love how the first phase sounds like we have no idea what this dragon is capable of, and then the second phase is like we can’t give up now, we’ve come a long way fighting against gods in Teyvat.
2:18 OS notification: "Commander, our fleet has arrive at designated defence position current engaging enemy. Your primary objective is to withold this position until reinforcement arrived" 2:40 OS notification: " Commander, our reinforcement has arrived, primary objective updates to repel all enemy force within the region"
I really want this to play when Apep joins the fight against "celestia" or most likely the "second who came" in case it turns out Phanes/Primordial One was beaten/corrupted
After WEEKS of not playing Genshin. I caught up and fought this boss... the music blew me away. This game continues to amaze me and reignited the passion I have for the game,
I love this theme, and I really think it's fitting for a Guardian of one of the dragons of Teyvat. Just wish the boss was a little tankier and could do more damage. There's quite a few fights that are arguably harder than this one, when it feels undeserving. ♡
To put into perspective, his first phase has 650,000 HP, every monster in the second phase has around 100,000 (with the big ones having significantly more than 100,000), and the third phase has around 600,000. Across all 3, they have more HP combined than Raiden Shogun. Your damage is just THAT high.
I just want to know... How the ever loving fuck did they make an theme with more epicness than rage beneath the mountains, signora phase 2 and scara combined
rather than building up something intuitively dangerous, how the track develops sounds to me is creating a vibe of something solemn and introvert but ancient and primitive. The rhythm is beautiful but on the other hand powerful, it's almost like the great natrue itself was singing out of indignation and you find yourself amazed by that spectacular view knowing that the strength hidden behind would consume you all at a sudden.
This theme gives me "primordial chaos" vibes at first and "end of journey" at the latter part. 1st part - anticipation, race towards goal, danger, unfathomable force. 2nd part - high stakes, triumph, overcoming. The electronic bits in this track also is a clear allusion to adaptability of nature. We even see how Warden of Apep shoots literal double helixes.
I soooo adore this theme. When I hear it especially the third phase I can feel the strength of the element of nature. Nature is the strongest thing in the world and it's definately stronger than humanity. This theme is really sutable for the quest. I just imagine Nahida, Apep's story and all the tragedy of everything happened. I really want to replay Nahida's quest to feel this emotions again! This boss is my favourite because only when I fight with him I can hear this brilliant music and recall in my memory the old fantastic Nahida's quest! Flute is the best instrument in this theme btw
I get it now. I totally get it. The first time I fought Scaramouche's Gundam I had to use Zhongli to experience the whole package with music and it totally breaks the immersion. That's why this time I used Dehya with The Bell, it was a great battle.
@@luisfillipebeserra2108I think the flute sounds more 'free', in the used version it has more rigid melodies but the unused one is more free-flowing which I think makes sense with apep
I was under the impression this will be a theme for fleet battle. Especially between 2:04-2:55, it is like the whole fleet is shelling at the same time.
All of the genshin bosses have epic themes, I think that each of them has it's own level of epicity. Like, Rage Beneath the Mountains still rocks, or Signora boss theme is still so hard. But yeah, Yung Peng Chen is really compromised in making each ost unforgettable
All traveler and Nahida fought was a single cell aka 'Guardian of the Oasis'. Nahida wasn't lying when she said Apep the Dendro Dragon Sovereign is immensely powerful. If this is the strength of Apep, Neuvillette and other surviving Dragon Sovereigns in their weakened state without their authority, just imagine how powerful they are in their prime especially when they fought against Primordial One and its Four Shades for 40 years non-stop, back then. That also explains how powerful Primordial One is. Like, help how traveler is going to do against Celestia lmao.
Well Neuvillette said he, on his own, can easily push back the Primordial sea if he has his full dragon sovereign authority.. and he not only did that, but completely defied Celestia and turned Fontainians into real humans not just Oceanids with human form.. he also powers the whole city of Fontaine with his Arkhe powers since the Oratrice is now broken.. that's how strong dragon sovereigns are.. I think Tsaritsa is trying to get hold of these powers of the dragons because the abyss is a very powerful threat and they need the power of the dragons to fight it back.. remember, Neuvillette didn't solo the Narwhal.. Childe was already fighting it for about a month and traveller fought with Neuvillette.. and the best they did was neutralize it and take away the primordial waters from it.. if it woke up it could've fought back again, but Skirk showed up and just turned the Narwhal into a ball.. meaning the power of one dragon sovereign may not be enough to fight back the abyssal powers..
Instrument 0:01 buzzing Sound from Tanpura (indian) 0:19 Bansuri (Indian Bamboo flute) 0:27 Sitar(indian) 0:27 Percussion Tabla(Indian) Is this other ver from here? 3:44 Ney(Middle east flute) Other instrument except ney from this part ,only sitar,tabla, tanpura are clear to the ears
Decided it to have my Music volume up lead me to this song man it gave fire emblem vibes it's nice but still they'll come a time I'll mute the music again
I'm sad that the tune at 0:26 does not have the full-blown orchestrated version of it like they teased during livestream. I'm disappointed and enraged.
It starts with a Hans Zimmer style before going whimsical with traditional instrumentation akin to John Williams, with intensity to something similar to Joseph Trapanese's works. 1:54 has some Sarah Schachner (Call of Duty) vibes to it, especially the opening note.
Sumeru is the only region have Song theme that Makes you bang your head harder than illegal "Stuff". This is On the different kind nd of Feels. Legally
If this boss had more hp on the final phase and a slightly shorter mid phase I think it would be nearly perfect, even in co-op it feels too short to enjoy the OST, you’d think by the fourth region, where most people have their characters built very well, bosses would be a bit rougher challenge wise but that’s just my personal opinion
I mean it probably is for players who haven’t been playing the game super long like probably you and me, and of course the quest versions are easier :)
@@Etherhackerlmao I understand, I’m just trying to think logically based on the fact the game is almost 3 years old and co-op exists if people are struggling terribly (even if not everyone plays co-op) Unfortunately story content never seems to have much challenge which makes sense but, even an extra 150k hp just so players can hear a bit more of the soundtrack would of been fine I think the reason I feel that way is because the music sounds way too epic in proportion to how easy it is to defeat the boss and being unable to experience the whole theme without stopping or using average characters feels like a miss for me This just seems to be the general consensus from what I’ve heard but I fully get what you mean about lower lvl players struggles The only way I can think to improve it is to merge music and gameplay and add a mini scene where the music transitions making the boss do a special attack, preventing rush kills from older players and keeping the pace together for newer players, a quick solution
Wait till they end up expanding on the first dvalin encounter where we will have actual mechanics in a 1 on 1 fight with a dragon in the air. That surely will happen at some point.
People keep saying that, but Warden isn't just a cell. Those things it summons in 2nd phase are the "white blood cells" and Warden is the leader of them. Considering Apep entrusted the Warden to keep the Oasis safe I would not be surprised if it was as strong as a god.
@@user-rt5pv1vr5f if that were the case there'd be more than one warden after us unless really only one of his wbc's went to kill the intruder. The archive calls them all guardians, and seeing how Warden was also affected by the same "evolution" as the 2nd phase dudes, im pretty sure it's not a cell and instead an elemental being itself. Plus the name "warden" means someone who is the leading figure in a defense of some sort, like in a prison. The ones below a warden are the defenders, aka the ones he summons.
after fighting Apep, the lore dropped and turned my perspective on the "GENSHIN" (primordial gods); who the title actually meant to refer, and what their roles are, was, and will become
@@user-uo4vo5pt5z Starting from 3:13 is the bgm played in game at the 3rd phase, but the final product is slightly different from this leaked version, as seen at 1:54.
Yesterday I learned that all the versions that people post of the "OST" of this song are actually all incorrect, seeing as how the one provided by Hoyo-Mix does not have phase 3 loop with the Chasm's version over it, nor is that loop actually in the game. That said, I do prefer having the loop with Chasm's version on top.
Honestly, the second phase reminds me of yu-gi-oh master duel, It's like someone has just pulled out their blue eyes white dragon instead it's green eyes green dragon

The last phase is so epic. Sounds like this one is for us, not that immune system boss. We, stand for nature and Sumeru, are writing our own legend
Thats the perfect ‘’ nature battle theme ‘’

I thought there would be no music better than Azhdaha's music, but I was completely wrong.
Instrument
0:01 buzzing Sound from Tanpura (indian)
0:19 Bansuri (Indian Bamboo flute)
0:27 Sitar(indian)
0:27 Percussion Tabla(Indian)
Is this other ver from here?
3:44 Ney(Middle east flute)
Other instrument except ney from this part ,only sitar,tabla, tanpura are clear to the ears
this reminds me of monster hunter so much
0:45 my favorite part
Decided it to have my Music volume up lead me to this song man it gave fire emblem vibes it's nice but still they'll come a time I'll mute the music again
I'm sad that the tune at 0:26 does not have the full-blown orchestrated version of it like they teased during livestream. I'm disappointed and enraged.
I still prefer this version to the official one, that flute out of tune after apep regenerating doesn't make sense
The previously leaked version was much more dramatic while this one is more region-specific.
Yep, that’s why you don’t look at leaks because things could be different.
@@Etherhackerlmao and disappointing, don't forget that part
@@luisfillipebeserra2108 quite wrong you are
@@twashgoat get out of here
no@@luisfillipebeserra2108
It starts with a Hans Zimmer style before going whimsical with traditional instrumentation akin to John Williams, with intensity to something similar to Joseph Trapanese's works.
1:54 has some Sarah Schachner (Call of Duty) vibes to it, especially the opening note.
The Last Phase sound sooo goodddd man
sadly it didn't make it to the official one, it's just the MIDI version, the final version is the one that uses the flute all distorted and weak
@@luisfillipebeserra2108 Damn...
4:14 i always hear these notes in alot of genshin music
We called it teyvat or photon leitmotif
@@alessharu3634 ohhhh interesting, thank you for the info
Yupp, every genshin battle theme has the same pattern in a different style based on the region.
That's from Xiao's demo and I also heard it in the desert battle soundtrack
@@Inferno9767 It's a leitmotif in a lot of early characters demos and in the main battle theme of every major region
second half is the most epic
@2:30 sounds like when someone's about to make a comeback in yugioh.
Sumeru is the only region have Song theme that Makes you bang your head harder than illegal "Stuff". This is On the different kind nd of Feels. Legally
If this boss had more hp on the final phase and a slightly shorter mid phase I think it would be nearly perfect, even in co-op it feels too short to enjoy the OST, you’d think by the fourth region, where most people have their characters built very well, bosses would be a bit rougher challenge wise but that’s just my personal opinion
I mean it probably is for players who haven’t been playing the game super long like probably you and me, and of course the quest versions are easier :)
@@Etherhackerlmao I understand, I’m just trying to think logically based on the fact the game is almost 3 years old and co-op exists if people are struggling terribly (even if not everyone plays co-op)
Unfortunately story content never seems to have much challenge which makes sense but, even an extra 150k hp just so players can hear a bit more of the soundtrack would of been fine
I think the reason I feel that way is because the music sounds way too epic in proportion to how easy it is to defeat the boss and being unable to experience the whole theme without stopping or using average characters feels like a miss for me
This just seems to be the general consensus from what I’ve heard but I fully get what you mean about lower lvl players struggles
The only way I can think to improve it is to merge music and gameplay and add a mini scene where the music transitions making the boss do a special attack, preventing rush kills from older players and keeping the pace together for newer players, a quick solution
Genshin impact need a super boss version of all their weekly bosses. Like an Abyss 2.0, but with tankier weekly boss
Wait till they end up expanding on the first dvalin encounter where we will have actual mechanics in a 1 on 1 fight with a dragon in the air. That surely will happen at some point.
I'm sure everyone will going hype for it.
we have our protagonist fighting while flying when facing unknown god. so there will be a aerial fight in the future
0:44 This is what forbidden knowledge sounds like...
You can imagine that, what you are fighting with is simply a cell of Apep, and it was sick, your mission is to rescue it.
People keep saying that, but Warden isn't just a cell. Those things it summons in 2nd phase are the "white blood cells" and Warden is the leader of them. Considering Apep entrusted the Warden to keep the Oasis safe I would not be surprised if it was as strong as a god.
@@theicecreammachineisbroken654 the second phase are elemental beings that live in ape body, the warden is probably just a cell 😧
@@user-rt5pv1vr5f if that were the case there'd be more than one warden after us unless really only one of his wbc's went to kill the intruder. The archive calls them all guardians, and seeing how Warden was also affected by the same "evolution" as the 2nd phase dudes, im pretty sure it's not a cell and instead an elemental being itself. Plus the name "warden" means someone who is the leading figure in a defense of some sort, like in a prison. The ones below a warden are the defenders, aka the ones he summons.
I personally just like the first theme, sounds something important that we must do, the emergency
Hmm
after fighting Apep, the lore dropped and turned my perspective on the "GENSHIN" (primordial gods); who the title actually meant to refer, and what their roles are, was, and will become
Its the "primordial one" that I tend to find out also. He was the one who vanquished those original ruler of seven.
The 3rd phase is fire!!
Sadly this version didn't make it into the game.... I wonder why.
What do you mean by that? The 3rd phase?
@@user-uo4vo5pt5z Starting from 3:13 is the bgm played in game at the 3rd phase, but the final product is slightly different from this leaked version, as seen at 1:54.
I love how they implementuje various instrument from the region its based from
The last phase was Glorious.
its the 2:20 most beautiful battle theme in genshin . PROVE ME WRONG
Scaramouche
Yesterday I learned that all the versions that people post of the "OST" of this song are actually all incorrect, seeing as how the one provided by Hoyo-Mix does not have phase 3 loop with the Chasm's version over it, nor is that loop actually in the game.
That said, I do prefer having the loop with Chasm's version on top.
don't know why but that last phase kinda sounds like fire emblem ost lmoa, absolute banger
Honestly, the second phase reminds me of yu-gi-oh master duel, It's like someone has just pulled out their blue eyes white dragon instead it's green eyes green dragon
0:45 is just 🌿
1:53 dont mind it just for me
This OST is rocking!
