I adore you all, loving Hades 2 OST so much more than the first - Korb is great don't get me wrong but the variety in this game is unbelievable, you all are doing amazing work here.
Always amazed by the work you and darren present, proving sky, no SPACE, is the limit for video game music production! Hoping to be on the same path as you soon 😊
@@pokeaust7800 it's used all the time now to desribe a song or a take for no reason. It just recently came out and everyone is brainwashed into saying it like they think it sounds cool. I start to believe that, I mean no, the internet is full of brainless people, that is known.
@@mihaimercenarul7467 I mean it’s used to describe something good. Obviously if someone really likes a song they’ll say it in the comments, and the Hades soundtracks are consistently amazing.
@@pokeaust7800 and it'f funny because if all the comments are "omg this song is amazing", it kind of shows that the song is not that amazing, pretty generic actually if this is the only praise it gets, generic praise.
Speaking of that, I DO wonder why Prometheus calls his eagle "Aetos" instead of "Aethon". Aetos is Zeus' companion last I checked, and sent the latter to punish the Titan. Unless he's somehow managed to convince the former to join him after burning the latter to a chicken drumstick. Or if it turns out to actually BE Aethon which would bode extra ill for literally everyone involved if my theory about who the next guardian is proves correct.
@@FiendMatadorSlayerOfNoobswhat do u reckon the next guardian is? I speculate they’ll drop entropy which we need for ending chronos so either we have a hidden chaos boss fight for the mats or the olympus end guardian will drop it. I was thinking something real old like Gaia or Ouranos.
I think it’s because it gives a feel of royal authority and might. Very fitting for what Olympus is about. But the melody in this one is also aggresive at parts, thus hinting at anger and FIRE. That also explains the name of the theme. And the boss
@@Mr.Starlight_gamingI mean, if you're a human, Chronos and especially Prometheus are on your side! If you're a god, they aren't! I don't know if it's as clear as one side being "right" and one side being "wrong." Just two conflicting interests and a lot of vengeful history.
I really appreciate it that you guys are one of the very few studios that upload their soundtracks on youtube, already got early access and looking forward to the completed version !
Full orchestral arrangement? Theremin? Vocals? Metal guitar and drums? Whatever instrument that is (edit - it’s an aulos, an ancient Greek wind instrument) at 5:00? This is a certified Hades banger!
@@FieldofReedsThank you! And I think I’ve seen you comment before that you’re one of the instrumentalists that work with Supergiant, y’all do a great job :)
I completely lost my shit when I saw Austin Wintory post that he not only orchestrated some of the new music and conducted the musicians, but that he CO-COMPOSED IT. Hades II’s score is going in so many directions at once, and they’re all the right directions.
This is so unique even for Hades's standards (where literally everything is unique). Can't get over the 2nd half of this one, it's so refined while also being so energetic i fucking love it so much. Y'all are doing a great job with this game, keep it up!
itd be cool if we could unlock a spell in the cauldron that makes them non-hostile, that or find a way to get Hephaestus to stop them from attacking us
Thought I would share what I wrote on the boss fight video: This music is really incredible. Especially coupled with the fight and the subject matter. It's like this majestic, fast-paced march forward, almost as if to symbolize Prometheus' self-destructive march of vengeance against the gods. As the Titan of Foresight, he probably knows that he will lose, just like he probably knew about his punishment, but he still chooses to do what he is doing regardless, in both cases. It's a relentless, almost obsessive march, ever forward, ever against his own fate, because that's what he feels he must do. That's what I hear in this music. That struggle against one's own fate, even with the knowledge of the outcome not being favorable - it ironically feels very similar to the human, mortal condition. And he is, in a way, the true patron of mortals in the greek mythos.
Darren ffs, take me out to dinner first holy SHIT My friend demanded I listen to this, quote "This might be the finest Korbing I've ever heard" Man am I glad I listened
I was playing yesterday after a long time while praising the game in front of my friends. At the end I told them "Amazing game, but sadly I've almost completed everything early access has to offer. Can't wait for the next update." As soon as I closed the game, I saw that a new update was available. Needless to say, I restarted the game ASAP and went on to beat the next guardian. So many good new interactions, and so much new stuff I can do and discover! I can't wait to see what Supergiant Games has to offer in the next great update.
The transitions in this song scratch a musical itch for me. Like at 1:23 and 2:20 and 3:07 and 3:35 of course. I am absolutely loving the entire symphonic orchestra sound to this piece while still incorporating the Hades synths and prog metal. As a former trumpet player I am also so happy with how the trumpets are utilized in this piece along with the other horns.
Prometheus: you have come here for the first time, you know nothing, i will kill you over and over until you learn. My ass with dark side that recharges every 0.0001 secondes: NU-UH!!!
Absolutely love how this sounds so different. You're no longer in the Underworld, or even the surface. This is light, airy, high-and-mighty, and warlike all at the same time. Great instrumentation too. Really, really fitting of the heights of Olympus.
This is such a perfect blend of Darren Korb’s style and more classical/traditional influences. I really can’t wait until I can actually buy the soundtrack.
I get so excited when new patches come out. Not only because I can't wait to play the game, but also because I know I'm getting new tracks that I'll listen to for months and years after, regardless of playing. This one will probably be my new favorite for a while! Thank you sir Korb and Supergiant guys ❤
I've been blown away by the new (& reworked?) music in this update so far. I was wondering about the orchestral stuff. Amazing to find out Austin Wintory is involved now too!!
I can't wear headphones for more than 30 minutes because my ears start to hurt (volume level doesn't matter), but as soon as I noticed the choir I threw those headphones on. Worth it.
When I heard this song in the trailer, I got some serious Kid Icarus Uprising vibes that gave me chills and I can thoroughly say I was not disappointed with the full song.
Okay so I won't lie, SOME of the soundtracks underwhelmed me a little when Hades 2 first came out (several were amazing, don't get me wrong, the Sirens were fire, the sightless shepherd was awesome) But THIS? *Chef's kiss * Korb and his crew are BACK, baby. This is all the epicness, halloween punk, but also a little "old school circus horn orchestra epic" feel to go with it. Super Giant, keep THIS kind of stuff up, and you've got a fan for LIFE!
Just did the bossfight for the third or fourth time, and only now did I have enough time between dodging eagles and this titan turning half the arena into pure fiery hell to actual even register how awesome this track is. Darren Korb, you simply cannot disappoint
Wait, two of my favourite composers working together? AND PREDICTABLY IT'S AN ALL-TIME BANGER!? Now they just gotta get Chris Christodoulou in here and they'll be unstoppable!
I LOVE the feeling you get when this starts up, it's like there's a whole ass orchestra right with you while you're fighting. I know that sounds obvious but I mean it feels like they are ACTUALLY THERE. So damn good.
Darren please marry me 😩 Every single soundtrack of this game is so marvelously done that you can almost see the place where it actually is.. it's a whole feeling, thank you for that. Edit : This one really REALLY look like a spy movie music lmao... We got prog spy music before 2025 (i'm a fan)
@@mihaimercenarul7467 Nah adquire better taste /j (its ok you dont like but 93.67% of ppl here do like it so please don't shit on them that's not cool)

@@sticksstickerson It’s funny cause while playing Hades 1, I always thought “No way this soundtrack can be topped” I could not have been more wrong 😂😂
This is literally the best money Supergiant has ever spent. Utterly insane what you and Darren have created.

hearing this in game with all the chaos happening on the screen feels incredible
