I LOVED the refreshing feel this had Like at the beggining I knew what to expect But then you satisfied that expectation and then some you didn't just subvert it you enhanced it 12 outa 10 Glorious track
@@WylRobins0n hey man1 just wanted to say that I loved your monologues and was able to use them in my story and my friends loved it so just wanted to say thanks a lot!
3 Things: 1: I noticed how you took ques from The Mad Priest (aka your best track), and I thought that was genius. 2:, I would've never guessed you would do Jazz, but I am here for it. And I want more. 3: The melody is so good, I don't think this song deserves to just stay as jazz. We need a 100% gothic orchestral version, a rock version, an EDM version, as many versions as humanly possible.
@@venerexate1841 Understandable. Unnecessary brass in something heavy like this is unlikeable, it's the reason why I dislike Michael Giacchino's and Danny Elfman's scores.
Another story formed by the music alone. This song invokes a feeling of being in Chicago in the ‘30s, just before a gang battle breaks out between two mafia groups. Epic!
I knew this was coming, I knew it would be good and I knew I’d add it to my playlist for all instrumental/orchestral songs. I guess I’m a psychic because all three happened
Your music is dark yet also feels inspiring and just strikes me with something that other music has hard time filling. I love it, no matter the instrument you still do amazing thank you so much for your amazing music.
Your music has inspired so many of my tabletop monologues; good, bad, righteous, or diabolical, regardless of the mood I need to convey.. there is always something waiting for me in the Archives of Rok.
I love the buildup in your songs. They don’t just flood my ears with random and sudden noises. They slowly buildup and take the shape of something good.
"And when I have extinguished you, I will cover the heavens, and I will darken their stars; I will cover the sun with clouds, and the moon will not make its light shine. The sun will turn to darkness, and the moon blood, before the great and dreadful day of the Lord comes." - Ezekiel 32:7 By the way, a dramatic but colossal music!
Now that I have listened to the entire album, I am going to give my thoughts and constructive criticism. First, let me begin by ranking the songs by my preference. Then, I shall give thoughts about each song and then end with final thoughts on the album as a whole. 1. The Cube 2. Faceless 3. Transcendence 4. Blood Moon 5. Waves 6. Sicilian Defense 7. Stealing From the Fridge at 2AM 8. Her Gaze I put The Cube 1st because it is, what I view, as classic Rok. It’s got the slow buildup, the epic drop, and I find it the best on the album-at least right now. I put Faceless 2nd because it is also amazing. The new sounds you used were perfect for the track, and the discordant chimes gave it a mood worthy of its title. Transcendence is 3rd because the drop is powerful. It’s only third though because the buildup just doesn’t quite hit the spot for me, but the end makes up for it. Blood Moon is 4th because it is a nice, slow score that could be the rise and fall of a main character. I like the trumpet, but I don’t like the part with the hi-hats, snares, and more jazzy drums as much. I’ll touch on that more in a bit. I placed Waves at 5th because it is such an emotional-sounding song. It would be perfect for writing tragic scenes in a book, and has such a beautiful, sad mood to it. Next is Sicilian Defense at 6th. I think the drums and guitar did not fit into the song. At first, it sounded great, but then the hi-hats and snares came and I was somewhat let down. Then the guitar hit, and that took me away from the vibe of the song entirely. 7th is Stealing From the Fridge at 2AM because it is not something I’d listen to regularly lol. It does show you are a man of culture, Rok, and it is quite funny, but I won’t rank it that high. Last, in 8th, is Her Gaze. I hate to say it, but the song just missed the mark for me. It didn’t have any drop-but neither did Waves. Waves pulled that off masterfully, but Her Gaze was just not it for me. I liked it at first, but it got too repetitive for me, and I feel it was missing something. Now, I’ll give my final thoughts. I’m not going to sit here and say “I can do better!” because I know I can’t. Maybe if I practiced for years and learned under you, Rok, I could hope to reach your level lol. I just want to give my honest opinion so I can, hopefully, help you get even better than where you are now. Overall, I think the album was great. I could see it being used for a number of movies, but I mainly rated it off of personal listening preference. If I was looking for a movie soundtrack, I might rearrange the order some based on the technical skill of each song. As one guy listening, I enjoyed a large majority of the songs. The reason I put the ones with guitar and drums below some of the others is because I don’t like them in epic-style music. I know views on that may vary, but I think they take away from the vibe of the song. It takes me away from the epic scene the music has painted, and instead makes me think of rock concerts and drummers. I find it a distraction that robs the song of its glory. Plus, it makes me focus on that instead of everything else. In the end, I congratulate and thank you for putting in the time and effort into making your first album! You have given us a list of amazing songs already, and you’ve only added to the collection with this. I prefer the more epic, dark, intense tracks, but I know some of it is more geared towards more emotional moments, and I think those songs mostly worked with the theme well. I hope your career continues to go on, and that you will be recognized for your amazing work. I hope to hear your music in blockbusters some day. I hope this was helpful, and keep on grinding, Rok!
I'm excited about your new album. Your music is a constant source of hope and joy for me. I love your song Golden Waltz the most. I don't know how I've managed before I found it. Thank you. I'll continue to support you and be a huge fan as a thank you for what you have done for the music community. :)
Forgive if I'm mistaken, but if this is indeed this song in the new "Hypnotic" trailer, congrats! (Both for getting the attention, but also making such a moving song that I could immediately remember who's it was!)
Just saw the trailer for HYPNOTIC starring Ben Affleck and I immediately smiled when they used this track of yours in the trailer. So happy for you buddy!
The trumpet solo is so good! This is a new kind of music from you Rok, I really enjoy it, to me it sounds like a piece of music that a maching band would perform, from the spectacular solo to seeing how the choreography would go along with the music, it would be a really cool piece to play for a marching show. Keep up the amazing work, I love your dark a brooding music please keep producing.
Holy holy holy cow....your sh*t slaps so hard! How.... Just how are you not blowing up? Subscribed and like. Much love and please don't stop releasing this amazing content!!
Oooh this is PERFECT for inciting a slow-burning terror in my DND players. I'm planning on using this theme for a "dream sequence." One player in the party is having premonitions about events coming soon, so the next session will start with them "waking up" alone, in a dark room, with the shadow of the BBEG coming for him.
Never would have expected the brass instruments for those jazz elements, but I am actually here for it. I suppose quite a few people were expecting the dark, gothic, heavy percussion elements instead but in retrospect I think that would have been too cliche so I'm glad you did something more alternative - given the title and theme. Bravo!
I like how you used parts of The Mad Priest in this, and the trumpets are a nice touch I must say. I respect that you’re trying out new things/styles with your music, and I think it worked out quite well. Also, congrats on releasing your first album! I hope that you are recognized for your amazing work, and I hope to see “Music by Rok Nardin” one of these days in a blockbuster’s credits.
I think brass/wind instruments are underused nowadays and you did an incredible job with them :) Been listening to your work nonstop since I found it last night, I've never found music that I can sit eyes closed and listen for hours before but I can't stop doing that with yours. I feel the need to turn it up and get as immersed as I can into it, closest I've ever come to meditating lol
Found this album on TH-cam Music and immediately became a huge fan! I didn't know this was originally from TH-cam! Your music is so epic! It inspires my art and my book! Thank you for your gift!
THIS IS DIFFERENT FOR YOU THIS IS AMAZING SHOW STOPING ICONIC WHAT EVER THE REST LADY GAGA SAID LIKE OMFG IVE BEEN HERE FOR ALL YOUR MUSIC MY FAVORITE IS DESTROY OF WORLDS AND IM JUST BLESSED TO HEAR THIS SYMPATHY
Near perfection once again. Only way to make it better would be by making it 24 hours longer that way I can get my blood moon fix daily. This style is just **Chefs Kiss**
Countdowns were for the album, yea. The other songs are on the Rok Nardin - Topic channel that is generated by TH-cam. I think they’re there, otherwise go to Spotify, Apple Music, stuff like that.

Can I say it too or you took the copyright?
@@Avg_FarronGreatsword_Enjoyer Anyone who listened to him since youtube can say it.

Hell yeah bro me too🤚
Let's get it! Everybody gets it!
3 Things:
1: I noticed how you took ques from The Mad Priest (aka your best track), and I thought that was genius.
2:, I would've never guessed you would do Jazz, but I am here for it. And I want more.
3: The melody is so good, I don't think this song deserves to just stay as jazz. We need a 100% gothic orchestral version, a rock version, an EDM version, as many versions as humanly possible.
We've gotta bump this comment up
Definitely a dark gothic version with piano, would be epic
I didn’t really love the jazz
@@venerexate1841 In all fairness, Jazz is not meant for everyone to enjoy.
@@venerexate1841 Understandable. Unnecessary brass in something heavy like this is unlikeable, it's the reason why I dislike Michael Giacchino's and Danny Elfman's scores.
You are criminally underrated. If your music played in the trailers and movies I'd watch it thousand times over.
It does
@@Big_Ballz11111 which ones?
@@aricayosbros8111 Rok Nardin made a playlist of all trailers using their songs
Another story formed by the music alone. This song invokes a feeling of being in Chicago in the ‘30s, just before a gang battle breaks out between two mafia groups. Epic!
This song kinda reminds me of James Bond openings... I'd probably argue this would be almost perfect for the start of casino royale
The trumpet dude holy shit. The trumpet is absolute bliss, that trumpet is the cherry on top. Amazing as always, you never disappoint.
I knew this was coming, I knew it would be good and I knew I’d add it to my playlist for all instrumental/orchestral songs. I guess I’m a psychic because all three happened
😂😂😂😂 ok this actually got me lmao
Never have I heard jazz used in this way before. I like. Very good.
Your music is dark yet also feels inspiring and just strikes me with something that other music has hard time filling. I love it, no matter the instrument you still do amazing thank you so much for your amazing music.
The trumpet is godlike, another phenomenal track by Rok Nardin :)
Your music has inspired so many of my tabletop monologues; good, bad, righteous, or diabolical, regardless of the mood I need to convey.. there is always something waiting for me in the Archives of Rok.
I can imagine this as a soundtrack to movie or game. Just perfect song as always :). I love your work.
I love the buildup in your songs. They don’t just flood my ears with random and sudden noises. They slowly buildup and take the shape of something good.
I actually think some of his buildups are too slow sadly
God those bassy growls. I love how often you use them, and I love the way they sound. Everything else about the song is gorgeous as well.
Knowing a Rok nardin album exists now makes me an excited armadillo
Smooth lol
I have been listening to this song on repeat for 5 days now and it hasnt gotten old yet. This is just a masterpiece.
As a Trumpet player, this song activated my neurons.
Me too, i just want to take my trumpet
Trumpet bros
Very Nice!
Every time you drop new music, it keeps getting better! I can't wait to hear you music hit the blockbuster!
"And when I have extinguished you, I will cover the heavens, and I will darken their stars; I will cover the sun with clouds, and the moon will not make its light shine.
The sun will turn to darkness, and the moon blood, before the great and dreadful day of the Lord comes." - Ezekiel 32:7
By the way, a dramatic but colossal music!
YOOOOOOO Just saw the Hypnotic trailer and I freaked out when this song played. Congrats man!
It sounds amazing, I love it!
I liked the dramatic beginning and the epic on-going
your works are so original
Now that I have listened to the entire album, I am going to give my thoughts and constructive criticism. First, let me begin by ranking the songs by my preference. Then, I shall give thoughts about each song and then end with final thoughts on the album as a whole.
