i can see why they changed the menu and theme, old theme fits with the old menu, your just getting on the island to rescue a family but get shot down and stranded on the island new theme fits with the new menu, youve been on the island for a few days and got used to the horrors of the island and ready to explore the story and mysteries of it good shit gabe
This is hands down one of the most fitting main menu themes for a game I've heard yet. The progress from early access to launch was something to behold. Congratulations both to you and Endnight alike for the hugely succesful release. I'm sure Sons of the Forest will amass a cult following just as big, if not bigger as The Forest :). Excited to see what future projects you will work on.
The soundtrack for both games have been absolute bangers, just wish they hadn't removed the song with the sick guitar riffs that plays during the "cube scene" it was featured in the 1.0 release trailer but the song along with the realization of what's happening at the time blended so well, like a real "holy crap what am i seeing" moment.
btw guys there is a easter egg to get the forest 1 main theme in sons of the forest , type arrow up , up , down , down , left , right , left , right , BA , enter : and see what happen :)
This man truly does a tremendous work for both SoTF and TF. These games would never be even partially as good as they are with that soundtrack. Way to go Gabe!
What they should do, is make this version the default "You've opened the game and haven't completed it yet" But after you beat the game, and "escape" the Island, have the old music as an outro to make you feel like you're taking the fight elsewhere.
I love the new theme, its so much creepier and unsettling than the older one. Its not like the older one was bad, not at all, but holy damn you did an amazing job Gabe.
Im just curious about how this theme its less frenetic compared to the previous one, i liked the shotgun shot sound effect of the old one, this one it's cool too, but im curious about why this change was made, it feels a bit more peaceful than i think it must be.
Old one was definitely much better. The synth melody in the old one made it a bit more haunting. This one feels, bland. More like a menu theme or a death/failure theme. An in-between, phase transition or even an overworld. Doesn't really fit a main theme. Would work as a credits theme too. Love the Mass Effect vibes though. But, if the game is a bit of a slower jam, then I suppose it's fine. The old one really sold me on the game though.
Love this new one but now i saw one of the old an was kickass. Ik you changed it but i forgot what the old one sounded like. I love them both. This one is like spooky bass, as the other is action 🎬.
OOOO... this is like 5 months ago wow. But did anybody notice how the theme is quite similar to "The Thing" movie intro? very similar. yall should give it a listen
My fiance who doesn't game and despises gaming, picked up my headphones while I went out for a bit(had paused the game) and said this music made her want to see what the game was about. Great tune! Any chance I could buy it for my phone as a ringtone?
Hey Gabe! does the easter egg still work? If you press up,up down, down, left,right,left,right and then B and A and then press ENTER. The old *The Forest* theme will start playing.
As a new 1.0 player that bought it during release. What is the reasoning to change the main theme? I checked your first one. Both are great, but why the change?
Both themes are good in my opinion (I didn’t really even notice a difference at first as I came back for 1.0 after hitting a standstill while playing the early access) but I think the changed it to fit in more with the new main menu and to fit in with the game more in general. Sorry for the long explainstion btw
I find this music better than the old one, the old one's tone was more action filled, this is more mysterious, I want mystery and unknown in a horror game, not action. If I wanted action I would go to a purely FPS game.

good shit gabe
Exactly. A lot of people prefer the old one but I love this one more because it really sets the scene

I'm gonna miss the old kick ass main theme. :(
Just go for the game files and replace it!

@gaming Wait, the konami code gives the EA menu theme?
Ah, ok, it gives you The Forest 1 menu theme, not bad either!

yea its cool
yeah i just did it
Isn't that the Kinami code?
"BA"?
This man truly does a tremendous work for both SoTF and TF. These games would never be even partially as good as they are with that soundtrack. Way to go Gabe!
I don't know how to describe it but I loved the og Main Theme, but the new one feels a lot more mysterious and I love it more
Such an amazing work! Has been an amazing journey to play the Early Access and so hapy to see the big constant update
R.I.P. previous main menu theme
do the konami code on main menu and the old theme starts playing
@@dave_5679isn’t that for the TF theme?
@@oPeacock yh, isn't that what he meant tho?
@@dave_5679 I thought he meant the old sons of the forest theme bc they made a new one for 1.0
0:28
2:27 when that signature SOTF riff begins 😫
Congratulations on the release! Thank you for everything you’ve done for this franchise
You hit the new menu theme on SPOT. it feels dramatic and epic like the one in the forest at the beginning and the end of the game
Gabe always dropping this bangers🔥🔥
so excited to play 1.0, ready to hear all the new music as well!
type arrow up , up , down , down , left , right , left , right , BA , enter : and see what happen :)

Thank you for sharing your art with us!
i love this game and the soundtrack is sooo goooooood ❤
Killer soundtrack congratulations on full release!
This is so much better! Congrats!
Gabe make the best bangers, thx a lot
Excellent work as always. Flavorful and atmospheric is a hard thing to do, but you nailed it!
Thanks Gabe for the hidden menu music 💪🏻
What they should do, is make this version the default "You've opened the game and haven't completed it yet" But after you beat the game, and "escape" the Island, have the old music as an outro to make you feel like you're taking the fight elsewhere.
Trailer music is what i wanted to hear more of. Thanks 😅
I love this game so much
I love the vibe
nice job man
love your soundtracks man , they kill me
The music has a completely different mood
Very interesting Gabe.
Congratulations to you 🎉
We love you,Gabe.
I love the new theme, its so much creepier and unsettling than the older one. Its not like the older one was bad, not at all, but holy damn you did an amazing job Gabe.
The best soundtrack of any game
I love "The Forest" sound track , too
My favorite soundtrack of any game of all time was always Boneworks, but now Gabe shows there to be good competition for a close second
@@wookiemurmur its so good
here it is boys, the official game.
Its awesome!
I loved every second of it.
Great Soundtrack!
Thanks Gabe
Congrats❤
I feel like my ears were blessed when listening to this song
Gabe make perfect
Wow incredible

This is better for the main menu but I hope the old one returns as boss/ final stretch music
you want old Forest theme in Sons of the forest? on your keyboard: up up down down left right left right B A ENTER
I Liked The Old One Better TBH
oh man i love this
More like the original the forest theme, love it.
Why isn't this on bandcamp? Please release this officially
love you so much
This is too good
Love this new one but now i saw one of the old an was kickass. Ik you changed it but i forgot what the old one sounded like. I love them both. This one is like spooky bass, as the other is action 🎬.
I wish the konami code could return the EA song for SOTF not for The forest but this one is also really nice, Gabe!
Banger

I am from brasil gabe i love your musics
thanks for the update!
Love this theme
POV you go vacation camping on an island and here this song: 💀
I love this music 😍🔥🔥
the goat
So good bro
Can we get full OST without radio distortion effect in game?
Love the old theme

Such a banger

amazing game!!
Hey Gabe congrats on release! will you release the song that plays in the reveal trailer in 2019 of Sotf? especially the part where Virginia appears
Cool
Sons of the Forest ;)
Wheres the button for add to playlist ?
nowhere!
Yo, we got the 1.0 of the theme finally!!
Is this for the full release?
@@YTLoneStar thats what the "1.0" means
@@vandercomics yeah I commented before I actually knew the release had come out, I thought it was tomorrow.
@@YTLoneStar ahh I see
Best
Any chance it drops on spotify any time soon? Would love to have this as part of my gym playlist
@gabecastromusic, good track
Also you'll add deleted/cutted versions of previous/unavaliable in game tracks?
I like this one better as well.
Hey Gabe, will your SOTF soundtracks be on spotify in the future?
Why did they change the theme song! Old one was better 😢
So the pause theme is the new main theme
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Gabe, when the forest 3 will release?
Lets see how sucessful SOTF is and we will see
Getting The Thing vibes
Sounds like it was inspired by That Was Yesterday by Foreigner
As a new 1.0 player that bought it during release. What is the reasoning to change the main theme? I checked your first one. Both are great, but why the change?
Думаю вторая более подходит . В ней больше загадочности
Both themes are good in my opinion (I didn’t really even notice a difference at first as I came back for 1.0 after hitting a standstill while playing the early access) but I think the changed it to fit in more with the new main menu and to fit in with the game more in general. Sorry for the long explainstion btw
A lot better!
Definitely doesn’t beat the pre-release theme. Still incredibly good though
I find this music better than the old one, the old one's tone was more action filled, this is more mysterious, I want mystery and unknown in a horror game, not action. If I wanted action I would go to a purely FPS game.
old felt more like sotf
@@jelenski69 New one feels like the game is actually a horror game
@@The_Apex_Of_PredatorsI know that this reply is five months late but I can behind that I guess.
Both have their own charm.
хз, но мне новая больше нравиться чем старая
Спасибо за отличную музыку Gabe!
They tuned the main theme down quite a lot from beta release. I like it and dislike it at the same time. (where is the shotgun sound effect?)
old theme was normal mode, this theme is hard mode with inventory pausing turned off
Just sons of the forest how cant vs live of luxury
This one is better
first main menu music was better, with the heli
You released this 8 hours ago, I thought?
early access one was significantly better, cooler music and better menu animation.
In my opinion, this theme sounds better than the old one.
Pause theme?
theres no new pause theme
Wait, this is just the Pause Menu theme, the old main theme has an entirely different feeling and mood with the shotgun cocking sounds, no?
This one is more creepy and mysterious
This theme is different
