    May as well bring the question back, what’s your favorite version of this track? Has it changed since I last asked? :P

    The hard metallic sounds and bass are the humans with their utilitarian looking equipment and drive to meet short term objectives. The airy voices are the ancient and sophisticated grandeur of the forerunners, and the possibilities it brings. I always saw this track as compelling me forward into something big and grand, because i had a mission.

    I like how you can tell the artist was going for a halo 3 elite design for the forefront, but went with more halo wars 1 style for those in the background. In fact it almost looks copied from memory off the halo wars trailer (No shade, just looks so familiar! I like it after all)

    • @josh11735
      @josh11735  13 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@prisms9724 I’m no concept artist (so take with grain of salt), but from what I’ve seen, it looks like sometimes they use characters/models from previous concept art to fill in the image. My guess for this one is that they were focused on designing the environment, then just added in the HW elites to the background. In fact, if you look at the artstation link (in description/pinned), you can see the alternate version of the art uses the same elite models.

    "A Walk in the Woods" and its variations has been my favorite track since the day I was introduced into Halo for the first time. It just has such a unique vibe that differenciates it not only from the rest of the tracks, but also from other similar games' soundtracks. Every time I listen any one of the variations I can't help but get chills.

    You have an incredible understanding of music. It's not only the sound of the song (which is beautiful in itself,) but how you order these melodies that makes your mixes beautiful and memorable. You have a gift my friend.

  • @_theryanchap
    @_theryanchap 4 ปีที่แล้ว +33

    I don't know how you did it, Josh...but you took my favorite video you ever made and improved upon it.
    "A Walk in the Woods", in my opinion, is one of the greatest musical pieces that Martin O'Donnell ever composed. What started out as a catchy little backing track in Assault on the Control Room (Halo CE) turned out to be one of the most recognizable and loved motifs of the entire soundscape, seeing resurrections in both Halo 2 (Heretic Hero/Zealous Champion) and Halo 3 (Another Walk).
    There's also the recent inclusion of it in Halo Infinite. I don't know about you but I was present when the Live-stream that previewed the track was shown and I squealed with joy when that familiar melody started to play, albeit remixed, but very much revived through the genius of Corelitz.
    Along with the contributions by Gareth Coker and Curtis Schweitzer, two VERY good composers in their own rights, the soundscape for Halo Infinite is looking like it's going to be something to remember. A true call back, as well as a progression...
    You've also outdone your previous iteration of this mix here, Josh...the percussion of "Another Walk" really works well with "Through the Trees". I really REALLY like this.

    • @josh11735
      @josh11735  4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Thanks man! :D
      100% agreed on the thoughts about the theme! It’s funny you said that about Through the Trees because a very similar thing happened to me: I was driving to get lunch the day they released it, and I decided to play it in the car. The moment that the melody sounded, I audibly yelled “YES!” as I was driving, haha. :P

      @trevorwalkerjr.9375 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      What if I told you that the melody and genius behind "A Walk in the Woods" was the brainchild of Michael Salvatori? Marty only helped with the production of this specific score. It's my favorite in the series.

    • @JohnnyRings
      @JohnnyRings 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

  • @JMoore-vo7ii
    @JMoore-vo7ii 4 ปีที่แล้ว +26

    As iconic as Heretic Hero is, I gotta give my vote to Another Walk from Halo 3. The chanting and the percussion is just too good. I also think the feel of the song fits more with the given environment from the game

    • @KrOnIc343
      @KrOnIc343 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Same. I think it's because I played halo 3 with hype of waiting for it to be released at the time. The fact that it's played in the 1st level compared to it being played at the last level in halo 2 makes it feel like you're finishing the fight

    For the longest time I'd been listening to a simple hour long loop of Zealous Champion to get my fix of raw, unfiltered Halo drum goodness, thinking "how the hell has no one made a mix of all the walks yet??"
    This is more than just a medley mix, this is an absolute work of art right here, every single transition gave me chills. Hell, I'd literally pay for a really long extension of this. You could call it "The Long Walk" or something

    Ahh, feels so good to listen to this. The music of Halo is such a crucial part of it's identity. I've listened to Halo 4/5 OST recently and even though I can't say it's bad, it's just pretty generic. It sounds just like any other epic blockbuster soundtrack. At the same time there's no way you hear this and doesn't recognize it's Halo. I really hope they'll do it right with Infinite.
