  • Here's a video of me (and Zako Ze Wacko) yapping about soundtracks in independently made games and animated films alike for 30 minutes straight.
    I haven't uploaded anything of substance for some time and so had the dumbest idea to make a video essay about soundtracks in independent IP's. Took more than a month to make (work started on November 2023) so I HIGHLY APPRECIATE for the support !

    What's really cool is that episode 4 of Murder Drones does foreshadow episode 6 with the hole in the floor inside of the cabin Uzi explores inside of. While Uzi fixed up the bug, and it ran off, you can hear the theme of the sentinels which is usually used in episode 6 when the sentinels show up if you listen closely. :)

    i absolutely ADORE the snippets of eternal dream through episode 6. when it plays after N and uzi hug, during the ambient sequence of the sentinels waking up, is my favorite. it plays over the lab intercom, as if it was a song the lab workers used to listen to. now it is distorted and crunchy, accompanying the empty abandoned visuals of the secret lab. it is so solemn and beautiful when it comes to the scene of uzi asking N if he’s okay. absolutely amazing.

    I honestly think one of the reasons why they're so good is the fact that the devs/creators of these successful indie games and series genuinely care and hold passion for their project, not being blinded by money, fame, or higher-ups making bad decisions some AAA companies can unfortunately experience. This lets them put TONS of their efforts into making memorable and actually sick music to listen to. For example, Toby Fox was basically a one-man army, so he could make the music EXACTLY how he wanted on his own time and Glitch was made by 2 brothers who started a small company with the hopes of releasing free high-quality content, so of course they'd try to produce great content.
    Also I'm not intentionally calling AAA game/series music bad, if anything I'd say the music is typically seen as the better part of some games considered "bad" out there. Just making sure an argument doesn't start if someone misinterprets this comment, lol.

    For me, I feel like one of the great factors of soundtracks/OSTs (and just indie projects as a whole) is the fact that they're, well, indie. Due to the nature of indie projects (lack of funding from "big companies", being run by a single or group of "average joes", etc.), creativity and the act of experimentation is what really makes them shine.
    "Indies" have definitely proven their immense potential time and time again, and it's such a welcoming breath of fresh air". It really is an environment where creators are able to freely "express their magic" in their own way, as well as grow their own loyal communities around the internet. It's such a beautiful thing, and I'm so glad they're garnering more and more attention over time.
    Speaking of creators, you seem to have a lovely video here yourself! It's not "perfect", sure, but the potential is definitely there. I'm honestly glad TH-cam recommended me this video, and I hope it keeps on doing so to other people. Great video, would love to see your channel grow, cheers!

      Huge shows and movies are always being ruined because of corporate influence, they get dragged out to make more money, potentially risky plot points are changed to be more generic, and in general creativity and originality are sacrificed for the sake of money.
      That's why small youtube projects are legitimately better than some multimillion-dollar shows.

      Yeah in a video about indie animation music it does feel kind of like a crime to barely mention the shows with more musicals than episodes.
      But considering the video is about bgm and not simply music, I really can't argue against its exclusion, everything else on this list does just kinda outclass the background music of hb

    The only things here I've not experienced yet are COTL and Lackadaisy , so I'll say my words about the other ones
    HK: Awesome style , the music fits erfectly at every moment , the worse rank you can give to a song is "good" or "not my style" , like I would hear some of those tracks 24/7 (like Sealed Vessel , Nightmare King , The Grimm Troupe , Broken Vessel , City of Tears , etc)
    Nut dealer (It's an anagram of Undertale , like Deltarune) : Do I have to say something here? The fact that you can connect almost every song having Once Upon a Time at the center is awesome , and every leitmotif contributes to the story , and some are going with the list of 24/7 tracks (Spider Dance , BAaTH , Death by Glamour , ASGORE , Hotland , His theme , etc.)
    TADC : I'm glad I looked beyond the kinda cringy first impression it gave to me , because it's the most jaw-dropping , heart-stopping , mind-bending paraphernalia I've ever layed my eyes upon (I had to make that reference) and so is the music , every track into the playlist
    Murder drones : WHY? WHY DID YOU NOT SAY ANYTHING ABOUT "Solver Uzi"? IT'S LITERALLY THE BEST TRACK IN THE SERIES( besides Eternal Dream and the ones for the Prom) *Ehem*
    AJ Dispirito deserves more views , he gave the most charisma to the show , even the songs' names are funny , definitly one of the best indie shows ever made , and if don't like it .... BITE ME!

      My first experience with TADC was when a piano synthesia channel did the theme song. I thought it was cringe too, and that it was like a kid show or something lol.
      Once I eventually saw hundreds of millions of people watched it, I figured I'd try it, and I was definitely proven wrong.
      What I'm glad about, is it led me to murder drones, since its the same studio. Its the most invested I've been in a show since when I was little and watched cartoons regularly, and I'm glad I got to experience it :D

    Yknow the sad thing is that music in the communities sometimes barely get recognition because people just say oh hey its from the one meme and not actually from the original sound. Its kind of like we live we love we lie, it was only basically known because of a meme. Which is kind of like these indie animations, like one of the reasons people would actually know that the TADC ending theme is original is because it was a big success, and of course theyll know, Hey this is from Tadc! I should go check it out again! But some like murder drones music and Lackadaisy music used in other meme videos, since they arent as big as some other indie animations, the songs either get used and people think that it is theirs and not the original owners, or the music that people put effort into would not be heard. Which is sad because these soundtracks are all really good and have so much effort put into them, but a lot of people dont hear them.

    - yes there are a ton of projects that Zako and I havent been able to discuss (e.g. Ultrakill, Rain World, Omori) and you know what, we'll save those for another video in another time so don't ya worry

    Another indie game OST I adore is the OMORI OST. It has around 173 songs I believe and was composed by 3 different artists, Pedro Silva, Jamie Lyn and Bo En. Playing the game can make some of the songs sob your eyes out, and not playing the game might still make you sob your eyes out. Some of the songs can perfectly capture some emotions so I really recommend you check em out.
    Fear and stress: Acrophobia
    Pressure: Omori
    Angry sorrow: It Means Everything
    Nostalgia: See You Tomorrow, Crossroads
    Regret/Sadness: DUET
    Hopeful: Clean Slate
    Relief/joy: Good Morning
    Honorable mentions: Worlds End Valentine, Flouring With You, Bready Steady go
    I love all the songs in this OST and would recommend you check em out!😊

    Finally, someone who actually talked about murder drones soundtrack. As a composer myself, i think that AJ really does what hes supposed to do. Unlike other soundtracks, there is actually some slight human defunctions on his songs, including the tempo change, which makes it give some more realistic atmosphere. Ive been trying to make a song like he does for months as well, but its really hard. I do agree when you say ep 6's soundtracks are entirely unique, My favorite song so far of writing this comment is from this episode. Specifically, the last song in episode 6. Even the song makes you realize that the stakes are high. The drums and synths are what makes almost the entire juice of the soundtrack, Including that oscillated synth, which is included in all soundtracks, but in this one it just makes it feel different, as well as the dramatic choirs that go within. One thing i also want to talk about are the slight synth and strings that make it feel more intense. AJ just made it go with 3 simple notes (correct me if im wrong): Starts with D, then after 2/2s goes up (D#) and goes back to D after 1/2s. Its very simple but creates a large difference in the intensiveness of the soundtrack.

    I was wondering if you were going to talk about the Solver Uzi track. Personally my favourite track in the entirety of murder drones (second only to knife dance). The slow, ominous track building into an encore of terror and then finishing with the best rendition of the main theme from murder drones. It combines slow rhythms before moving to staccato, and then leitmotifs. So beautifully well done.

    The music is somewhere in between organic and electric, which fits the setting really well.
