@@rpgeebzmusicarcade Yep, they did a reprised version of this boss in a later expansion and they used Misha Mansoor's cover as the music for it in the actual game.
@@rpgeebzmusicarcade To add onto Bailey's comment. Basically, Sepiks Prime "Seh-Picks" was a boss fight in the original release of the game. When the third expansion came around, Sepiks was revived through nanomachines known as SIVA (the source of the conflict of the expansion) as Sepiks Perfected. But using the metal remix was a unique situation. As another major boss fight for Taniks the Scarred "Ta-Nicks" (ta as in tan) was revived by SIVA as Taniks Perfected, however he did not receive a remix as no one did an epic metal cover for Bungie to include. Taniks would return yet again a year ago, and he got his remix then in a different style. Tanik's theme however, I do not think would translate well to a metal cover, as it is a lot more reserved compared to Sepik's theme.
Quick correction, while this is used in destiny 2 the original was written by C Paul Johnson for the original Destiny 1 OST, and the redux was a fan cover that they ended up using for a reprised version of the activity in Destiny 1: Rise of Iron
Destiny 2 has an amazing OST! I really recommend the tracks 'The First Disciple' or 'Riven of a Thousand Voices'. These are incredibly climactic and musically thoughtful pieces and the D2 composers are at their best doing grand-scale raid boss fight themes
Surprised I haven't seen it suggested yet, but while I agree with people recommending things like "The First Disciple" and "Riven of a thousand voices" I personally have to say that the Destiny 2 track "Journey" ft the Kronos Quartet is a MUST hear! The tone it sets is incredible, and it's definitely up there with the most emotionally effective points in a video game for me. You could do the live orchestra version, but I have a personal bias towards the original recording. For the video game context of the track, it's the opener to a story point where you've suffered the first massive defeat, your home is burning, your once-immortal comrades are being killed left and right, and you and the rest of humanity are cast out as refugees on a journey to regain your strength and hope.
If you want more Destiny tracks to break down, here is what I personally recommend: Regicide from The Taken King expansion in Destiny 1. Shell of What Was from the Destiny 2: Forsaken expansion. The First Disciple from Destiny 2: The Witch Queen expansion. Dark Blade from Destiny 1: The Taken King expansion and it's counterpart from The Witch Queen expansion, The Light Blade.
If you liked this, destiny 2 has some crazy music. The First Disciple (Full Action) is one of my favorites. Try to listen to the extended version please! I’d love to hear your reaction!
So this is the music that plays during a particular boss fight in the game, that boss' name being Sepiks Prime (pronounced Sep - iks). This was everyone's favorite fight in Destiny 1 specifically because this song made it feel so epic. He'd be sending wave after wave of minions at you while also assailing you with powerful, slow blasts as he teleports around his arena. Was a tense fight (when it first came out) and a great track to fight him to.
So the story goes that Sepiks Prime (pronounced like septic but without the 't' and add the 's' to the end) is a boss at the end of a strike from early Destiny 1. Later in an expansion called Rise of Iron - just now noticing that title being a great place for a metal cover - Sepiks Prime is revived early on in the missions by a cursed technology called Siva. They brought back the strike with Sepiks Prime and used this cover during that battle and named the track Sepiks Redux. But if you have a chance to, I'll reiterate what some are saying here and try a listen of Deep Stone Lullaby. Really good Destiny track. Quick edit: I typed that previous text as I was listening to you, but "I'm still here" LOL.
Hey Geebz, I love watching you react to video game music. It fills me with joy to see you treat these tracks with such respect and even when you try to understand how these connect with the gameplay. Thought I'd drop in my suggestion: "No Escape" from the Hades OST. Appreciate it, keep up with the good work!
I remember after the first time or two fighting this boss in destiny 2 (where the cover plays during the fight) I told my friends that I was playing with "hey guys I won't hear you this fight but ill be where I need to be" And I would turn down my party chat and turn up the music and just jam. Some peak memories you have brought back and with fresh insight of the composition. Thank you!
Oh man, always a pleasure to see Destiny music. If you're taking recommendations, I think you might find Drown in the Deep, Replicate, and Athanasia + Security Breach (technically two separate OSTs, but they're effectively one track split in half) interesting. They're both Destiny 2 tracks as well. Anyways, always fun to listen to your reaction and breakdowns, regardless of what's being listened to.
Destiny is such a gem of a game music whise. I highly sugguest destinys spacewalk track "Deepstone Lullaby" which plays after a boss encounter as you jump through space.
I can't get enough of these anime and videogame OST videos!!! Always perk up when I see a new one. These games and shows mean so much to me and a big part of that is owed to the soundtracks, so seeing you really dissect them and appreciate them is just fantastic content.
Man Geebz, your reaction channels are my favorite on youtube. You do all sorts of cool stuff. I've been playing Destiny for a 5+ years now and never expected to see it on the channel. Destiny also has some really beautiful and melancholy songs through its multiple soundtracks. So many cool and memorable tunes.
So awesome that you are reacting to Destiny 2 music! Destiny 2 has some of the best raid music out of any game! I definitely recommend what others were saying about listening to The First Disciple, Replicate, Look Within, or Riven of a Thousand Voices.
As someone who has played Destiny since it first launched in 2014 and still plays today, I have to say one of the best things about it is the musical story telling. Characters and concepts have motifs and themes that get remixed and re-used in different ways as the story goes on, and as someone who loves and pays attention to the music it really is one of my favorite things. The more you learn to identify the motifs, the cooler it is. A couple of good examples are the Darkness theme (basically, the main bad guy theme) and the Guardian theme (our character, aka the main hero). So many tracks re-use these musical phrases but in different ways, different instruments, different keys etc. to sort of weave the story of whatever event the piece is meant to accompany. "The First Disciple" is a track that uses both of these motifs to great effect. A couple of my other favorite Destiny tracks are "Queen's Oracle", "Riven of a Thousand Voices", "The Gunslinger", and "The Fanatic" but really there are so many good ones. I have a whole playlist of just Destiny tracks.
I'm still here! I like video game music a lot because its also great to listen to while working out. That feeling of anxiety you mentioned is good for motivation. Also the tracks tend to be longer and loopable, because on the hardest difficulty you could fighting and hearing this one song for like 15 minutes straight haha. You can notice some spots in the arrangement where it is clear they would put a cut there to keep it looping back into a different chorus, or loop perfectly into the ending flourish when you finally defeat him, which could happen at any point while the song is playing. Imagine having to make all your songs loopable like that!
Hey found your channel a week ago and absolutely love it! Your open-minded approach to all those new musical worlds combined with your music expertise is so refreshing to watch. That said, I'd love to suggest a game for you to take a listen to: Ori and the Blind Forest. It's a relatively small project with fantastic music by Gareth Coker, who also worked on the latest Halo game. Highly recommend songs like "Light of Nibel", "Climbing the Ginso Tree" or "Restoring the Light, Facing the Dark".
Destiny has some amazing tracks. The taken king theme “Regicide” and another from that piece of content “The Dark Blade” being some of my favorites. Awesome games and OSTs.
If you liked this, destiny 2 has some crazy music. The First Disciple is one of my favorites. Try to listen to the extended version please! I’d love to hear your reaction
"tema principale orchestra dedicata ai maestri" by Shiro Sagisu. It is from a show/movie series called Neon Genesis Evangelion. There are versions with operatics, but the first hit on Spotify/TH-cam will net you the orchestral version found in the show. While the other songs in the series were performed by the London Symphony Orchestra, this one was performed by the Warsaw National Philharmonic Orchestra.
Forget the Destiny OST, check out ODonnell's Music of the Spheres -- big symphonic suite he made that the Destiny OST is basically a bunch of samples of. It's a total treat!
So both versions of this music was in destiny 1 The first version was in the original game. The second one came out in the dlc titled Rise of Iron. Both are incredible and are my favourite music inside of destiny. You was bang on with how the music was reflecting the situation, i can't count how many times Sepiks would spawn behind me and scare the hell out of me. In the the original version of the music he was known as Sepiks Prime but in the second one he was known as Sepiks Perfected.
Giving a like and a comment to inspire you to try more Destiny 2 ost. Geebz, you've been the only reaction channel I've watched for 2 years without fail. Here's to a lot more. 🥂
some of my favorite destiny tracks are the Last Wish Vault theme and The Last Array. Ohhh and the theme that played in the wrath of the machine bridge encounter
I love this piece but there's a section of it which always reminds me of a track called Forcefield - which was the theme tune to The Crystal Maze ( a game show which aired here in the UK in the 1990s).
This was so much fun to watch, if you enjoyed this I think you’d really like Utamaru’s metal covers of Destiny tracks, they’re my favorite Destiny covers by far! Thanks for the reaction!
I love the cover version; also, it's not just part of the Rise of Iron expansion; but it's the song used on the current version of this strike (in Destiny 2).
Sep (like pep with a s) tic (tick). If i remember correctly the 2nd one was a cover that was posted to destiny's reddit and that's how it got into the game.
Hey Geebz, I think an OST you'd enjoy reacting to is the Mirrors Edge OST, specifically "introduction by Solar Fields or "Still Alive" by Lisa Miskovsky
Sepiks (Sep-ics) Prime is the first boss in Destiny 1. You're not far off with the chase feeling, It's an encounter with limited space and you're getting swarmed by minions while you're trying to kill the boss, so you're constantly repositioning. The cover version is also used in the game a few years later, same boss fight (he's returned) but you're much more powerful and geared for it compared to when you first face him, I think the metal version works in this instance as it's a reflection of your power. Totally agree with other comments recommending "Deep stone lullaby" from Destiny 2. I'd also like to recommend "An end once and for all (extended)" from Mass Effect 3 Edit: I actually think "Suicide Mission" from Mass Effect 2 would be better for your channel. The game was recently remastered, including the soundtrack so it's even more impressive ☺️
Love Destiny OST, it’s hyper powerful. Couple of things, first, where do you buy your flat caps? I want to buy one for my old man! Secondly, there’s “We’re the Desperate Measures” from Halo 3 ODST - awesome song and there’s a really cool Metal cover with about 100k views, really awesome riff
Was really cool how they used this in destiny 1 where the original was in the orignal fight and the cover was in this version where the boss was upgraded with this nanite like technology called siva. But in destiny 2 they brought it back and used the oringal for the normal difficulty. Then in the nightfall version they used the cover making it feel more intense. Just works so well.
Ha, the comments are already full of people wanting to tell you what I was about to! The Redux version for the Rise of Iron expansion surprised and impressed a lot of players who never heard Misha's cover and excited those who had! It was used because they basically remixed and updated that mission and the final boss fight is where this plays so, only made sense to have a remix play, heh! There's a number of very memorable tracks from all of Destiny, a number of which are named in the comments. Riven of a Thousand Voices for a mix of traditional and modern, Journey for something more emotional and operatic (though, I'm partial to the second vocal variant but not a good choice for a reaction video). Others come to mind but those are stand outs I think you would appreciate. Oh, and as far as I know, Sir Paul McCartney had only a small part to play in the music for Destiny 1 but it did include one original vocal track by himself called Hope for the Future. At the time, it was very...tonally out of left field, considering the nature of the game, and so a lot of people thought it was kinda cringy buuuuttt...I've sort of come to enjoy it now! It still kinda makes me laugh but it's not bad! Only recently found your channel but I really do appreciate YOUR appreciation, hahaha! Really been enjoying your insights and attention to details I hadn't noticed in tracks I'm familiar with and just your overall enthusiasm for the medium you love, no matter the source! So thank you!
Still here and after seeing that you're open for japanese music for example the Chainsaw man opening, I recommend the Opening of Toaru kagaku no Accelerator/A certain scientific Accelerator anime named "Shadow is the light" from the band "THE SIXTH LIE" and the ending "Parole" from the band "Sajou no Hana". Or really all the openings and endings of the Toaru series, I don't know much about music but for me they all sound very unique.
There is a lot of music in the Destiny universe, but I highly recommend you give each soundtrack a listen on your own time. Destiny and Halo both have soundtracks that I listen to on the regular!
I am a huge fan of Destiny's soundtrack and I feel like you'd like Salvation, Regicide, or Cabal Stomp! I hope you do more Destiny videos and I am new here and love your channel!
I was able to email Michael Salvatori and basically just geek out and tell him how he's basically a hero to me. We had a nice conversation too haha, but to see a podcast with both of you guys on would be absolutely amazing!
Some lore, if you're interested: In destiny, there is a race of forsaken pirates from another solar system called the Eliksni, who require an element called ether to survive after their planet was ravaged by the exodus of a giant spherical machine that gave them basically magic. That machine, called the Traveller, came to earth, stripping the eliksni of that magic and leaving them essentially starving for a replacement. They followed it to earth and have been killing humans for centuries because they still worship it. To create their ether, the eliksni(also called the fallen) have to mine and convert a programmable matter from different sources with machines they've built in the Traveler's image. These machines are massive floating, agitating technological wonders called servitors. Powerful fallen, called captains, Use servitors to create ether for themselves and their subordinates. the more ether you consume, the larger and more powerful you become. The most powerful fallen are the massive archons and their kells(kell is like a king). To manage that amount of ether, the fallen must employ what are called prime servitors, which are huge. Sepiks is the biggest servitor belonging to the house of devils, one of the main recurring antagonistic clans of fallen. Of course we destroy sepiks in a boss fight (the first track is his theme song) and the devils are sent packing... That is, until fallen splicers(tech geniuses and programmers) discover an ancient earth weapon called SIVA. SIVA is a kind of horrifying nanotech that corrupts and kills everything. The splicers somehow manage to figure out how to weaponize it against humanity, and eventually use it to resurrect their prime servitor, sepiks. So again we have to fight sepiks, but he is resurrected and enhanced by SIVA, and is called sepiks perfected. The original boss fight was reprised with some changes, including the changed soundtrack (second track in this video). Honestly, while videos games are often written off as hokie or childish, a lot of modern video game writing is akin to a grand, highly detailed novel like lord of the rings.
Just subscribed recently and your videos are great. May I make a song suggestion as a fan? It’s called “Face on” and is a Wolf’s Rain OST, and is more of a sad and uplifting song. Wolf’s Rain is an animated series from the early 2000s, and has some of the most beautiful soundtracks in any form of cinema I’ve heard to date. It’s one of the best stories I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing, but unfortunately it’s lesser known. If you made a video breaking down “Face On” i would be eternally grateful! It’s short, but has an immense life span!
Hoping to hear you react to the soundtrack to the Medal of Honor games, they were WW2 shooters with a Saving Private Ryan feel and Michael Giacchino did the soundtrack. So memorable.
PLEASE do a video on the Destiny 2 track Journey. Alongside another titled Deep Stone Lullaby as many others have mentioned, both tracks are some of if not _the_ best to ever come out of the franchise.
My fave OST from destiny is the taken kings theme. GOD when i first heard that theme song i paused and actually looked up the song. It was my spiral to this type of music. Completely different from the rap and rock id listen too 😂
Both of these tracks had purpose where they show up-- also, this wasn't Destiny 2, it was the original Destiny... Point is, when you as the player character first encounter Sepiks Prime, he's your first team-up boss, and so by that nature, the original orchestral piece brings out those feelings/emotions for that encounter and its conclusion. Describing it as a 'pocket' is a great way to go, and because of the nature of the track, certain parts are easy to loop until the last ~30-45 seconds for the conclusion get triggered when you finally drop that boss. When you encounter Sepiks Prime again later on in the DLC campaign, the metal cover (Sepiks Redux) serves as an *excellent* backdrop because both your and your NPC 'ghost' companion are both thinking "didn't we kill that guy already?!" and he looks like he got assimilated by the borg and hits harder to boot, but because the fight is different and the boss battle mannerisms are more... intense and mobile, the metal cover lends itself more to that situation. That and when you hear those first few licks, goosebumps.
your observation that the piece is playing over frenetic action is right on the nose cause this track plays during a boss fight with Sepiks Prime during The Devil's Lair strike which was originally in the first Destiny, but they brought it back to Destiny 2 and to briefly describe the fight...Sepiks Prime is a giant spherical robot that's trying to kill you and its lackeys are swarming you from both sides and you're trying to kill it while trying not to get shot to death and that musical sequence at the very start is a lietmotif you can hear throughout destiny's music...can't recall what that piece is, but im sure someone will comment what it is lol
I found your channel in my recommend a bit ago, but’s I always find your reactions to be engaging in a way. If your willing to explore some more of Destiny, two good tracks would be, “regicide” and “journey”.
Hey George, im a huge fan of your work and would love to see you react to Gehrmans theme from bloodborne, its a phenomenal piece of composition and im sure youre going to like it. Thank you for all your efforts!
Please listen to Kevin Perkins music for Made in Abyss, it would be a wonderful addition to your anime music reactions! There are too many good songs to recommend just one. But I suggest "To the Abyss!" From the first ost. "Trancendance and Havezeve" from second ost and "Juroimoh Mutation" from the third ost.
I would be amazed if you reacted to "Komm, Susser Tod" by Arianne. It was written for the fil "End Of Evangelion". The lyrics were written by the franchise's writer/director Hideaki Anno and composed by Sagisu Shiro it is sung in english and hits hard on the meaning.
Destiny has an outstanding OST. I think we can all agree that “Journey” and “Deep Stone Lullaby” are a must!
100% so many gems
also the farm ost
Deep Stone Lullaby absolutely! Maybe even with gameplay in the background so you can get the full context 🧐
completely add my support for both those tracks, brilliant
Deep stone lullaby is a must please check it out
The cover was so good they put it in the game!
Had no idea! Thanks for letting know :)
@@rpgeebzmusicarcade Tower of God OST - "Crown Game" That's good music. Сheck it out.

I second this. I would love to see a reaction to Journey
Riven, Rhulk and Aksis all have some of the best video game themes for a boss that I’ve ever heard. They are _phenomenal_
If you want more Destiny tracks to break down, here is what I personally recommend:
Regicide from The Taken King expansion in Destiny 1.
Shell of What Was from the Destiny 2: Forsaken expansion.
The First Disciple from Destiny 2: The Witch Queen expansion.
Dark Blade from Destiny 1: The Taken King expansion and it's counterpart from The Witch Queen expansion, The Light Blade.
The First Disciple is soooooooooo good
Great to see Destiny getting love! I recommend Deep Stone Lullaby, Journey and The Man They Called Cayde! 3 great songs

A Destiny marathon reaction would be great. Both Destiny 1 and Destiny 2 are full of great OST's.
Definitely need more Destiny 2 reactions, the music is 10/10
Would love to see your reaction to Journey
I love destiny and these themes are super nostalgic for me
This song (the original) still gives me a rush and goosebumps 9 years later 🤓. So amazingly good, the atmosphere to the whole D1 soundtrack is insane.

some of my favorite destiny tracks are the Last Wish Vault theme and The Last Array. Ohhh and the theme that played in the wrath of the machine bridge encounter
I wasn't expecting that deep guitar riff in the background, I was eating dinner, and dropped my phone in my plate of food. 🤣
I love this piece but there's a section of it which always reminds me of a track called Forcefield - which was the theme tune to The Crystal Maze ( a game show which aired here in the UK in the 1990s).
Sup sup, howzit 🤙. Man I love this. Dark orchestra sound. I can see this in a chase seen or some kind of a movie score. Just awesome.
Played this mission twice last night and still thought it was first (original) track before the second track came on!
This was so much fun to watch, if you enjoyed this I think you’d really like Utamaru’s metal covers of Destiny tracks, they’re my favorite Destiny covers by far! Thanks for the reaction!
Still here, and always here for destiny content :)
I love the cover version; also, it's not just part of the Rise of Iron expansion; but it's the song used on the current version of this strike (in Destiny 2).
"RED ALERT Hell March" a classic video game theme song you should look at and or might recognize
Sep (like pep with a s) tic (tick). If i remember correctly the 2nd one was a cover that was posted to destiny's reddit and that's how it got into the game.
Oh man it's been years since I fought Sepiks Prime 😁
Hey Geebz, I think an OST you'd enjoy reacting to is the Mirrors Edge OST, specifically "introduction by Solar Fields or "Still Alive" by Lisa Miskovsky
Sepiks (Sep-ics) Prime is the first boss in Destiny 1. You're not far off with the chase feeling, It's an encounter with limited space and you're getting swarmed by minions while you're trying to kill the boss, so you're constantly repositioning. The cover version is also used in the game a few years later, same boss fight (he's returned) but you're much more powerful and geared for it compared to when you first face him, I think the metal version works in this instance as it's a reflection of your power.
Totally agree with other comments recommending "Deep stone lullaby" from Destiny 2.
I'd also like to recommend "An end once and for all (extended)" from Mass Effect 3
Edit: I actually think "Suicide Mission" from Mass Effect 2 would be better for your channel. The game was recently remastered, including the soundtrack so it's even more impressive ☺️
Love Destiny OST, it’s hyper powerful. Couple of things, first, where do you buy your flat caps? I want to buy one for my old man! Secondly, there’s “We’re the Desperate Measures” from Halo 3 ODST - awesome song and there’s a really cool Metal cover with about 100k views, really awesome riff
Was really cool how they used this in destiny 1 where the original was in the orignal fight and the cover was in this version where the boss was upgraded with this nanite like technology called siva. But in destiny 2 they brought it back and used the oringal for the normal difficulty. Then in the nightfall version they used the cover making it feel more intense. Just works so well.
I'm still here, and I've been playing Destiny 2 literally as I listened to this video. Destiny's music is incredible, and the lore is just genius.
The lore is enough to kill a sane man with the amount of it
Ha, the comments are already full of people wanting to tell you what I was about to! The Redux version for the Rise of Iron expansion surprised and impressed a lot of players who never heard Misha's cover and excited those who had! It was used because they basically remixed and updated that mission and the final boss fight is where this plays so, only made sense to have a remix play, heh!
There's a number of very memorable tracks from all of Destiny, a number of which are named in the comments. Riven of a Thousand Voices for a mix of traditional and modern, Journey for something more emotional and operatic (though, I'm partial to the second vocal variant but not a good choice for a reaction video). Others come to mind but those are stand outs I think you would appreciate.
Oh, and as far as I know, Sir Paul McCartney had only a small part to play in the music for Destiny 1 but it did include one original vocal track by himself called Hope for the Future. At the time, it was very...tonally out of left field, considering the nature of the game, and so a lot of people thought it was kinda cringy buuuuttt...I've sort of come to enjoy it now! It still kinda makes me laugh but it's not bad!
Only recently found your channel but I really do appreciate YOUR appreciation, hahaha! Really been enjoying your insights and attention to details I hadn't noticed in tracks I'm familiar with and just your overall enthusiasm for the medium you love, no matter the source!
So thank you!
Destiny has an outstanding OST, I recommend The Last Array from D1 and Frigid Tomb and Deep Stone Lullaby from D2 Beyond Light DLC.
Deep Stone Lullaby from Destiny 2 is a good one too
Still here and after seeing that you're open for japanese music for example the Chainsaw man opening, I recommend the Opening of Toaru kagaku no Accelerator/A certain scientific Accelerator anime named "Shadow is the light" from the band "THE SIXTH LIE" and the ending "Parole" from the band "Sajou no Hana". Or really all the openings and endings of the Toaru series, I don't know much about music but for me they all sound very unique.
absolutely nuts
There is a lot of music in the Destiny universe, but I highly recommend you give each soundtrack a listen on your own time. Destiny and Halo both have soundtracks that I listen to on the regular!
this is very cool! would love to see more Destiny reactions
I am a huge fan of Destiny's soundtrack and I feel like you'd like Salvation, Regicide, or Cabal Stomp! I hope you do more Destiny videos and I am new here and love your channel!
My man I love the poster behind you, I gotta hear you talk about the dead some time
If you liked destiny 2 music you should check out “deep stone lullaby”
I was able to email Michael Salvatori and basically just geek out and tell him how he's basically a hero to me. We had a nice conversation too haha, but to see a podcast with both of you guys on would be absolutely amazing!
Some lore, if you're interested:
In destiny, there is a race of forsaken pirates from another solar system called the Eliksni, who require an element called ether to survive after their planet was ravaged by the exodus of a giant spherical machine that gave them basically magic. That machine, called the Traveller, came to earth, stripping the eliksni of that magic and leaving them essentially starving for a replacement. They followed it to earth and have been killing humans for centuries because they still worship it.
To create their ether, the eliksni(also called the fallen) have to mine and convert a programmable matter from different sources with machines they've built in the Traveler's image. These machines are massive floating, agitating technological wonders called servitors. Powerful fallen, called captains, Use servitors to create ether for themselves and their subordinates. the more ether you consume, the larger and more powerful you become. The most powerful fallen are the massive archons and their kells(kell is like a king). To manage that amount of ether, the fallen must employ what are called prime servitors, which are huge. Sepiks is the biggest servitor belonging to the house of devils, one of the main recurring antagonistic clans of fallen. Of course we destroy sepiks in a boss fight (the first track is his theme song) and the devils are sent packing...
That is, until fallen splicers(tech geniuses and programmers) discover an ancient earth weapon called SIVA. SIVA is a kind of horrifying nanotech that corrupts and kills everything. The splicers somehow manage to figure out how to weaponize it against humanity, and eventually use it to resurrect their prime servitor, sepiks. So again we have to fight sepiks, but he is resurrected and enhanced by SIVA, and is called sepiks perfected. The original boss fight was reprised with some changes, including the changed soundtrack (second track in this video).
Honestly, while videos games are often written off as hokie or childish, a lot of modern video game writing is akin to a grand, highly detailed novel like lord of the rings.
Who else is playing The Devil's Lair strike in their head while watching this video?
I highly recommend Destiny - The Tribulation. It's a beautiful song.
Just subscribed recently and your videos are great. May I make a song suggestion as a fan? It’s called “Face on” and is a Wolf’s Rain OST, and is more of a sad and uplifting song. Wolf’s Rain is an animated series from the early 2000s, and has some of the most beautiful soundtracks in any form of cinema I’ve heard to date. It’s one of the best stories I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing, but unfortunately it’s lesser known. If you made a video breaking down “Face On” i would be eternally grateful! It’s short, but has an immense life span!
I suggest the Deep Stone Lullaby. Best Destiny 2 track in my opinion.
I would love to see your reaction to "The Rhythm King" from the Bullets Per Minute OST, I think you would genuinely love it!
Great to see more Destiny on the channel! Perhaps more Periphery in the main channel is in order especially when P5 is just around the corner? 👀
one of my favorites OSTs from destiny 2 is frigid tomb , but i swear it's hard to choose from all the amazing music this game has to offer
Hoping to hear you react to the soundtrack to the Medal of Honor games, they were WW2 shooters with a Saving Private Ryan feel and Michael Giacchino did the soundtrack. So memorable.
PLEASE do a video on the Destiny 2 track Journey. Alongside another titled Deep Stone Lullaby as many others have mentioned, both tracks are some of if not _the_ best to ever come out of the franchise.
Still here!
I feel like you’d REALLY like Risk of Rain 2 OST “con lentitud poderosa” by Chris Christodoulou, the song has such range and so much calm/ excitement
You should totally react to “Genesong” from the Halo 2 Anniversary soundtrack. It was played by Steve Vai if I’m not mistaken
nice but Deep Stone Lullaby is definitely the best Destiny 2 track
Its got a lot of strong competition tho
Rivens theme tho
I'd love to see your reactions to anything from the "Hollow Knight" soundtrack, I personally really like "Dirtmouth", "City of Tears", "Grimm"
My fave OST from destiny is the taken kings theme. GOD when i first heard that theme song i paused and actually looked up the song. It was my spiral to this type of music. Completely different from the rap and rock id listen too 😂
Both of these tracks had purpose where they show up-- also, this wasn't Destiny 2, it was the original Destiny...
Point is, when you as the player character first encounter Sepiks Prime, he's your first team-up boss, and so by that nature, the original orchestral piece brings out those feelings/emotions for that encounter and its conclusion. Describing it as a 'pocket' is a great way to go, and because of the nature of the track, certain parts are easy to loop until the last ~30-45 seconds for the conclusion get triggered when you finally drop that boss.
When you encounter Sepiks Prime again later on in the DLC campaign, the metal cover (Sepiks Redux) serves as an *excellent* backdrop because both your and your NPC 'ghost' companion are both thinking "didn't we kill that guy already?!" and he looks like he got assimilated by the borg and hits harder to boot, but because the fight is different and the boss battle mannerisms are more... intense and mobile, the metal cover lends itself more to that situation. That and when you hear those first few licks, goosebumps.
your observation that the piece is playing over frenetic action is right on the nose cause this track plays during a boss fight with Sepiks Prime during The Devil's Lair strike which was originally in the first Destiny, but they brought it back to Destiny 2
and to briefly describe the fight...Sepiks Prime is a giant spherical robot that's trying to kill you and its lackeys are swarming you from both sides and you're trying to kill it while trying not to get shot to death
and that musical sequence at the very start is a lietmotif you can hear throughout destiny's music...can't recall what that piece is, but im sure someone will comment what it is lol
Do the Destiny Taken King theme I remember that gave me goosebumps the first time I heard it and is a wonderful song
I've been playing destiny for years I would recommend "deep stone crypt lullaby".
I would like to hear your opinion on the Vermintide II OST - I have no knowledge of music, but I love that one.
You should react to theDoos new song- But I pretend I’m a beginner great song
You should react to the track, "Light in the Darkness" from World of Warcraft Warlords of Draenor. It's fantastic.
Would love to see you check out Gunslinger from the Forsaken soundtrack
I found your channel in my recommend a bit ago, but’s I always find your reactions to be engaging in a way. If your willing to explore some more of Destiny, two good tracks would be, “regicide” and “journey”.
Hey George,
im a huge fan of your work and would love to see you react to Gehrmans theme from bloodborne, its a phenomenal piece of composition and im sure youre going to like it.
Thank you for all your efforts!
He needs to hear Last Array
Please listen to Kevin Perkins music for Made in Abyss, it would be a wonderful addition to your anime music reactions! There are too many good songs to recommend just one. But I suggest "To the Abyss!" From the first ost. "Trancendance and Havezeve" from second ost and "Juroimoh Mutation" from the third ost.
Hope you get around to Mick Gordon’s “the instinct” which is in killer instinct and it’s one of his best work. Been loving the videos keep it up!
I would be amazed if you reacted to "Komm, Susser Tod" by Arianne. It was written for the fil "End Of Evangelion". The lyrics were written by the franchise's writer/director Hideaki Anno and composed by Sagisu Shiro it is sung in english and hits hard on the meaning.
Video idea: "Tomorrow" by Kevin Penkin from the anime Made in Abyss.
