All this time, I just now realize the differences between this and Valak Mountain: the Prison Island version uses an emphasis on the percussion, as well as added on vocals at the beginning. It all makes sense why these two are labeled differently on the soundtrack
This song is like the culmination of the entire series, its so damn good. Also very fitting we ended at Valak mountain, where the monado was originally found.
@YoshiAteTooManyYoshiCookies too true good sir. (I just picked out the parts that stood out to me as especially amazing but of course the whole track is absolutely peak).
@@eeeeggnog._. I know this is the version on the top parts of the Black Mountains, but some of the soundtrack songs have differences to the in-game version, and I thought this was one of them. Maybe I just haven't listened to the second half of the track enough.
I don't think this composer has been the sole producer of a track in xenoblade before. We clearly need her to do more in the games to come!!
She did compose Yggdrasil from Xenoblade 2 before
British talent in the Xeno series is not limited to voice acting
This may be my favorite area theme in a video game ever.

3:02 I'm so used to this little riff that my brain auto-filled it in for the Valak Mountain version of this theme despite not being present there.

i love how the prison island version uses rock drums instead of concert ones
This really have been the Xenoblade Chronicles, A.

Peak, literally… because mountains…
Okay, I‘ll stop…
This track is amazing, and it sounds so different from the in-game version.
Pretty sure this is exactly the same, it just plays in only the top parts of the black mountains

The difference mostly comes in how the song is compressed in game pretty much. In the actual song here, you can make out all the neat details.
@@voidoflight2420I didn't think audio was compressed like that anymore, I thought we were beyond that.
@@lucassmith3790 We aren't. Not yet. Nintendo games still compress music to keep the file size reduced.
Nice
