yes, its all this kind of mix of analog/digital synth with an actual orchestral recording, the studio also either newly records old marching songs with local military choirs for respective nations (and puts them through a filter to sound old) or license old recordings of them to use in their other strategy game, hearts of iron 4 (there is also some music-only dlcs that adds songs from the metal band sabaton)
Andreas Waldetoft is a genius Stellaris is a game from the developer and publisher Paradox entertainment, sweden. its a 4X strategy. Its blatant awesome. This is the german Brandenburg senior orchester crew. This whole OST has a Hans Zimmer vibe like interstellar. This Vibes want you make exact the 4X, "explore“, „expand“, „exploit“ and „exterminate“. This Song is rly the core about "i want to explore the whole universe" The Best song from this is "deep space travel" Third song from the main OST of the game (with every DLC and expansion there comes out more ost of the DLCs and so on)
This is the intro music (load-up screen/main menu) to the original (no extra content) version of Stellaris. It is actually a combination of MULTIPLE different tracks that play during the game, composed together into a single piece. Each of them is amazing on its own, though you definitely get a very good gist of them here. It's so good, I always mod the files to restore this as the main menu music (since each DLC pack replaces the song with something else, often also good, but never quite as good). On that note, I would say that ALL strategy games published by Paradox Interactive have amazing intro/main menu tracks, not to mention in-game music - tailored to the specific setting of the game (medieval times, world war 2, or in this case, the galaxy). I would heartily recommend you give a listen to the intro music from Hearts of Iron 4, Europa Universalis 4, or Crusader Kings II - some of my personal favorites.
You would have a field day with Synthetic God from Stellaris. There is a specific musical twist with how that tracks builds up, half-way in, you can literally see what the music represents; where it started, how it changes and what it becomes.
Faster then Light from the same game is absolutely amazing as well. Those two set the tone for early Stellaris perfectly. You are the new guy on the block, and you don't know Jack about your environment. You also got to pick which FTL method you would use. Something they should bring back.
I love how this game's OST tells a story with each track, I left a similar comment on the synthetic dawn OST video but in this one it starts off ethereal with this sense of a race looking up to the stars in wonder, like the birth of a world in the universe that will sustain a future great civilization. the classic instrument and orchestra take over from the synth for a bit sounding like the species pre space age recounting their infancy on their homeworld and then when the synth kicks back in it has that wonder with the orchestration like this species is making it's first steps into the unknown to see what wonder is in that great beyond, and then when the french horns and strings bring in that driving force it's like the sounds of industry as this species's journey we're following is building up to challenge rivals they've discovered and make in their journey to the stars, war, economic domination, industrial might. It couples the players journey in the game as our journey to build a civilization in the stars check out synthetic dawn's main theme, it tells the story of the rise of machines as they become conscious of their existence and over take their creators in strength and over power their music to sing their own song instead
The smiles throughout the performance say it all. This is a piece that my daughter likes ever since she is 2 years old. To this date, this is a song that has inspired many chapters of my book saga. What a wonderful time to be alive. Thanks God and thank you for your input on this song. The organic and synthetic mixture sums up an atmosphere of a game that I have not yet played, but projects its own essence through music. This is genius! I agree, the musicians are living what they are performing and immersing in the music.
Oooh, love this and the EVE Online soundtracks. Icelandic Symphony Orchestra even did a selection of tracks from the EVE Online OST for the 10th anniversary that was quite pleasant.
The music for this game really set the entire tone, the whole OST is brimming full of the feeling of exploration and discovery, outstanding work and a great marriage of classical instrumentation and 80 style synth vibes
This is my favorite track from Stellaris. Cool to see a professional like it as well. Other paradox games songs i like are. "Coeur De Lion" from Crusader Kings II 4:00 onward on that dong is just other worldly. And "The Feast" from Crusader Kings 3: Nothern Lords
This pieces are one of my favourite tracks to have running in the background. They are also meant to be the audio-carpet for you slowly exploring space, discovering its wonders, building your empire.
Stellaris is one of my favorite soundtracks of all time (Birth of a Star being my fav track from it) and it introduced me to the style of 'hybrid orchestral' music. It's so underrated! Dunno if you take requests from comments ever, but I absolutely recommend checking out "The City must Survive" from the Frostpunk soundtrack. Incedible piece!
Finally someone reacting to this masterpiece, even thou I grew tired of Paradox games monetization business, OST to their games used to be masterpiece. Thank you for this video, this made my day
You should check out another track from Stellaris called Then Comes Light. It has a bit different vibe being more cybernetic while also being mixed with orchestral themes, reflecting the machine civilizations and artificial intelligence machine hive mind, species featured in the game. Birth of a Star, Toward Utopia, Dragon's Beath, Deep Space Travels and Sigma Tauri are also some really great tracks. Then Comes Light to me, stands above all of them because of how much it feels like some machine intelligence that has become self aware and has begun to spread itself throughout the cosmos. The entire Stellaris OST/Score is an amazing 6+ hour journey of incredible music that just sends your mind across the universe.
The entire OST for this game is phenomenal!

It's a wonderful creation.
The Stellaris OST will always be something special to me. It is hours and hours long but every track is beautiful.

" its a 4X Round based strategy. "
Not quite. It's a 4X strategy. Not round based, though. That's more like Endless Space.
@@Unethical.FandubsGames Thx, is corrected
Jean Sibelius would have been proud. Except maybe for the bit where this had been a soundtrack for a pop culture thing.

You should check out songs from other Paradox games too, they’re all great.

Stellaris is my all-time favorite game. I have thousands of hours in it.
Should check out Towards Utopia from Stellaris too if you get the time, a beautiful and grand piece!

check out synthetic dawn's main theme, it tells the story of the rise of machines as they become conscious of their existence and over take their creators in strength and over power their music to sing their own song instead

Stellaris one of the best Grand Strategy games, the best when it comes to space subgenre.
This pieces are one of my favourite tracks to have running in the background. They are also meant to be the audio-carpet for you slowly exploring space, discovering its wonders, building your empire.

Yeah, finally! :D This is the soundtrack that I listen to once a week in full
Love the combination of synth and classical instruments!
I've been playing since launch and I turned off the music right away. Now I'm thinking I made a mistake...

Every time I listen to Creation and Beyond and Robotics and Beyond, tears of joy
Great to see you back at stellaris
He has other Stellaris videos?
we have encountered spacebourne lifeforms
Cette musique est exceptionnelle.
My proposition: soundtrack from the game "Everybody's Gone to The Rapture". It is something absolutely unique.
Construction complete
Someone needs to have him react to the live action herald of darkness from the game awards OR to other Alan wake/control music🥳👍🏻
System survey complete.
