    Fun fact: My Time wasn't composed for Omori, it's just an extremely good and fitting song made by a British musician bo en, which was used in the first trailer for Omori (2014!), and then later in-game. The Omori version of the song is slightly sped-up/pitched-up to be even cuter sounding. bo en later actually composed a few original tracks for the game though, and they're bangers!

    Oh I had chills in the whole OMORI part, almost cried ! Gorgeous improv there.
    What you said at 19:45 was EXTREMELY ON POINT. It's not confirmed by the composer, but it's widely believed some of the sounds used here are meant to be voices in distorted memories, a traumatic memory to be precise. Which would be why some of the sounds suddenly peak and growl, as some of them are shouts, argument, screams... and thuds.
    Obviously I'm not gonna spoil what this is, but if you want a little bit of context, imagine someone repressing trauma and it comes back all at once, and you have only 2 options : stand down and give into it, or grow to move forwards with it. It's going to be excruciating to fight back the urge to give up and to face everything you've been fearing so much you needed to bury it. And that's where the dread, panic and anguish of those crazy sounds come in.
    This video does much better with the cuts by the way ! I don't mind it being longer at all, this is great !

      Yeah, the memory part seems right on. Plus it amplifies the past experience by a lot and (spoiler warning)
      It's almost like the distorted part is Omori trying to fight against Sunny, who is the violin. The violin is constantly throughout, but the distortion is obviously trying to overpower and throw off with it's violent and alien-esq noises

    Omori is an absolutely incredibly game, and if you have the time to play it at some point, going in blind is ideal! I simply don't have it in me to spoil/answer any of your questions if you have any interest in checking it out.
    Your analyses and impromptu accompaniments are an absolute joy to watch! The chord progression in See You Tomorrow is an absolute work of art.
    It Means Everything hits hard, and although you haven't reacted to it, By Your Side is probably my favorite piece - the vibe of it shifts every time you hear it, I swear.

    To me, "ALTER" is the pure embodiment of anxiety in musical form. Especially following "OMORI," since the latter leads into the former, it takes such a somber ambience and practically tries tearing it apart. I can't explain it easily, especially without diving into spoiler territory, but holy hell, those two tracks together are one of my favorite pieces of video game music of all time.

    4:50 This one is literally a retrain of Moog City and Moog City 2 from Minecraft but with a spacy tone and chiller leitmotif. One you can hear again in one other very tense song later

    15:44 Fun fact, the blurry fence in the background there is the game's title
    17:50 Even more relevant in ways unexplainable without major spoilers. I love when composers deduce such from music, especially with Omori and Undertale
    21:11 This composer made 4 tracks for the project. This is the first song that anyone ever heard for the game, and was the music for the first trailer, which lacked almost all spoilers. In that trailer, everything from the first Oyasumi to the second Oyasumi segment is cut, which kinda destroys the song. Otherwise an amazing piece. also, the composer confirmed that this song (from his album Pale Machine) is about

    21:48 "1, 2, 3, 4, 5 minutes." + "There's nothing I want more than to sleep. But the world won't allow it/But I can't, it's words" idk which of the two
    22:10 "Have, a, good, night" or "Go, now, to, sleep". Ever notice how it's much easier to translate japanese songs into Spanish than it is to translate them to english? The syllabics (I think that's how it's called) fit much better. "Bue-nas, no-ches"
    22:50 That can translate to "nothing to be done about it", but here "So be it/No matter" fits better. Easier in spanish

    I really loved your previous reaction to the series' soundtrack, and this was really fun, too! Given your lack of context for the tracks themselves, some of your insights on them are surprisingly refreshing (and some a bit too close to the truth), and others obviously not so much, but that's okay lol. We welcome it. 🙏
    I wanted to include a fun little fact about My Time and the violin, but I felt it might be edging too close to spoiler territory, so I'll hold off. 😅
    I do hope you have the opportunity to play this game someday for yourself, it's truly a gem.

    19:44 about the voice part: SPOILERS
    within the community, it has been theorized quite enough that the "voices" you are hearing are actually Mari's cries of despair, telling Sunny to stop as he's getting violent towards her. Keep in mind that the scene probably takes place during the "incident" as you can even hear phrases like "no" or "stop it" which actually make quite sense given the context of the game.

Your inspirations in grungle and turn-of-the-era rock are so clearly highlighted and give such a great perspective on these games, as I think a lot of them come from extremely similar inspirations.

    Btw the song "see you tomorrow", reminds me of early final fantasy, specifically final fantasy 7 or 8, and also kingdom hearts. Those games have many soundtracks that have a very similar rhythm and tone and nostalgic melody. :)

I'm glad you are back on my radar and showing love to the games i love so much and not only that but giving so many deep explanations that i can easily relate too and even have little realisations from how clever your analyzing is.
      I hope you eventually get to play Omori soon. I know you are doing these so you can listen to the songs blind and in a way that isn't riddled with all the extra context attached to them, so you can focus on the piece itself instead of the mental images attached to it. That's a clever method to be unbiased when listening.
      I highly recommend listening to the "One shot" soundtrack. It's in my opinion, the first real introduction to a meta rpg adventure game, and has a powerful message and story. It was one of the big inspirations for Undertale, which also had huge meta elements. But one shot does it in a very big way. The music for that game is absolutely serene and gorgeous and i highly suggest listening and reacting to it. I haven't seen people talk about that game since it came out a couple years before Undertale. I hope you give one shot, a "shot" ;)

    The violin has been my favorite musical instrument since I was a small child, and you along with many other violinists truly inspire me to possibly learn to play one day.
    Hearing you play along with the music makes things feel 10x more emotional, and this game makes you feel a multitude of them. I feel like I have a strong connection to the characters and the story.

How it is the cry, the opposing force that fights back the negativity of the battle against OMORI in the game itself. I just imagine it being how when Sunny uses the skill Cherish, and remembering the words of his friends, he fights back. He gets the courage to overpower OMORI and realizes that there's a reason to keep going, there is a reason to live. I'd definitely would love to see a cover with the soundtrack!
