Can someone please give us a detailed description of each scene in this imaginary western based on the sound of each track? That would be amazing.
I'd love to see everyone's individual outline of this story. You don't have to go off of my track titles either, if the music takes you in a different direction.
@@StevenLynnMusic of course. I was thinking people would listen to each track and get a sense of the mood of the track. I’m not sure how it’s done in Hollywood, but I’m pretty sure the composer watches a rough cut of the footage they’ve filmed and then write a score for each individual scene. So in effect I’m asking the community to do the same thing but in reverse.
@@MrP392 Make it so!
Maybe we can use the album as a writing prompt and have a story competition or something (to be honest I hate competitions based on art though)
@@StevenLynnMusic I’m not much of a writer, but I’d love to read what others write.
To the person reading this, Good Luck! Don't stress, everything will be fine. No matter what difficulty you are facing right now, you can overcome it! You are strong and brave.
Much obliged, pardner.
thanks. I needed that ;-;
I’m fucking struggling. Cheers.
Thanks, pal. You too.
Love u bro
I remember not seeing this movie when I was a kid, back when it wasn’t in theaters
I wasn,t there either😄
Clever devil 😊
I don't remember that.
Me too :)
Yeah, man, nobody was talking about this movie. Seems like no one ever knew it didn’t exist.
"You know, Tommy, I ain't here for no social visit."
"Yeah, I figured. Don't suppose you wanna hear my side."
"Naw. Too late for that"
From what?
western music takes me back to elementary school so much. i had a teacher for like a month or two and he would make us close our eyes, listen to western music, then write a FULL story about anything the music made us thought about. it was so great. i dream about being a writer since then, and have always loved writing and creating stories. i miss that teacher.
All it takes is consistency, people start when they’re old and become successful writers so why not start now?
I just write for the enjoyment. I don't think anyone will ever read my work. I'm okay with that
Sounds like a truly amazing teacher!
You had a teacher for only a month or two...what happened after that??
so whats each scene that these songs belong to
WE MAKIN IT OUT OF THE GALLOWS WITH THIS ONE🔥🔥
You're making out in the gallows with who???
@@obamagaming3802 Hey, it's a Spaghetti western, just vibe with it
@@Vinemaple You suddenly hear a voice from the other corner of the saloon. Black hat pulled low over his eyes. Shot of whiskey in his hand and his boots kicked up on the table in front of him. Leaning back against his chair. "who you telling to vibe with it" he sneers coldly..............
WE MAKIN IT OUT OF THE SALOON WITH THIS ONE I RECKON🗣🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥
WE MAKIN IT OUTTA DEADWOOD WITH THIS ONE
I listened to this on a motorcycle trip through mountan dirt roads. This music was a simply outstanding companion for the trip. I hope more people get to hear your works.
This gave me diarrhea
That sounds dope fr
are there any bears out there/have you seen any?
How do u listen to music while riding, man? headphone or some sort of bluetooth?
badass👿
I remember watching this movie with my dad back in '94. Will never forget what Cheriff Dean said in the end: "You can only learn the true measure of a man by seeing what he does when he thinks he's alone." Stuck with me ever since.
That's the definition of Integrity.
Man, i remember Birch saying "Ain't the fingers that matter, Austin, it's the notes they're playin'." after Austin tried to kill him. Hit me real hard.
Remember this one?...
"There are two kinds of people in the world, my friend: Those with a rope around the neck, and the people who have the job of doing the cutting."
Wow... 🤔 that's a very insightful quotation. Thanks.👍
@@centerfiresuppressionllc682 They're the same people.
Federal Marshal Grady Higgenbotham riding across the desert is pursuit of the gang that killed his family. The year is 1886. His rides in on his brown Arabian horse, tired from the long ride across the prairie his eyes lay tired as he looks ahead… (you finish the rest) 🤠👍🏻
Riding around in RDR2 with this on is so unbelievably epic
Not as epic as riding around Tatooine in R2D2 with this on!
i like to play rdr2 with only rdr2's music on
Also Ennio Morricone, specifically Once Upon a Time in the West, is also incredible. I highly suggest trying this soon
@@MarwanGmrpro gets kind of old after a while.
I played like a 2 hour long tribute to Ennio Morricone when I was playing that game.
Both the main theme for "The Rude, The Fat and The Snugly" and "For a Few Bitcoins More" on the same album. Impressive. Very nice ... let's see Paul Allen's soundtrack for an imaginary western.
🤔
The memes into one comment lol.
"A Fistful of shit from walmart"
How about a fist full of ravioli
@@HonkHonklerdude, I don’t understand. Wtf is “for a few bitcoins more”💀💀
Right off the bat I'm hearing a lot of Ennio Morricone influence. An excellent source of inspiration.
Not surprising considering Moriconne basically invented the genre
On the outside I’m hootin. On the inside I’m hollerin’.
This comes to my recommendation out of nowhere and what I can say about is that this is the kind of jam that I love.
ya I think youtube hacked into the playlists on my PC's hard drive
Same. Sometimes the algorithm is great
TH-cam knew what we needed right now lol
maybe not exactly what we wanted, but exactly what we deserved ... lol
@@Vinemaple funny, and likely scarily true😱
Having some whiskey sours and eating dinner at my property out in the high desert of Oregon while listening to this glorious music. Magnificent way to enjoy my Saturday...
Can I come? 😢😢
Native Oregonian here, the high desert is a prime location for listening to these tunes
Add some Rose City Band and some Jeffrey Silverstein and it'll be perfect.
congrats on owning property, that's all we got these days
@@user-zw4wh1tm9x Got a couple years of payments left then it's all mine. Never owned any land before. Then I'm getting a well.
You're so right. It's all about owning some land and being as self sufficient as possible!
Oh man...I would love to see this entire album recorded by the London Philharmonic Orchestra.

If you don't mind me observing once these big philharmonic orchestras get hold of original music scores the very essence of the melodies seems to disappear into the ether.
Greetings from India 🇮🇳🙏.
This music score just took me to my childhood memories of watching these cowboy movies of Clint Eastwood , Anthony Quinn, Gregory Peck, Bud Spencer and Terence Hill to name a few. Just awesomely enjoyed the entire tracks. Kudos to you man for this wonderful presentation.
God bless all
Can you please list down some iconic movies , i want to watch for sure

@@dziuaftermidnight No where have I mentioned that those are western movies
As someone who grew up in the deserts of Arizona, this sounds like home. Thanks.
As someone who grew up playing Read Dead Redemption 1 and 2 this sounds like the perfect soundtrack for the 3rd game.
You grew up in a desert? You must be dry.
Sounds more like southeastern Minnesota to me
i grew up in AZ too, Mohave desert area.. This playlist works great with Fallout NV and Mad Max, from personal experience~
Texas.
The Southwest is an absolutely magical place. The American/Mexican /Native feel is so unique.
Born and raised there. after moving away some 11 years ago, i know this about my homeland more than ever, and i miss it.
And the government continues to destroy it all.
True. Nothing like it.

That's why I live here
well done, you really captured the old western style music. You know what you doing.
Here is a Grammy from me 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
Long days and pleasant nights everyone.
And may you have twice the number
Beats to listen when you're reading Blood Meridian , RIP Cormac McCarthy
Killer book , killer author. Love Cormac, although don't know he died. Try this if you dare ! "Wraiths of a broken land", & "A Congregation of Jackals" both written by S. Craig Zahler ... You wont regret it.
Bruh standing on the crosswalk, waiting for the green light whilst holding 2 beers, a pack of cigs and staring down two envious bums on the opposite of the street while "The Heist" is playing has got to be my new favourite memory XDDDDD
should've jaywalked to the heist bro
Lol... Best comment ever 😁
I love this cover, makes me think about the old comic books, board games and magazines from my grandmother's house...
wow I remember this OST, the movie was directed by Clint Eastwood, the cast was epic: Ian McShane. Kurt Russell, Scott Eastwood & Sam Elliot.
What movie?
@@marcinszmuro537 the best movie ever
Shame about how the movie portrayed Native Americans.
Makes it a little hard to watch nowadays.
But the music will forever be pure.
That scene of the guy riding in the sunset is one of the best in cinematic history
@@someguycalledCh0wdah best ? his best was the early movie which he wasnt a director yet , man his son need to get better roles
An Arizonan, I admire how the main theme captures at once the gorgeous ancient majesty and austere immensity of the desert west. Towering canyon walls and distant, stoic mesas which command both amazement and dread, as the desert is a beautiful and nearly uninhabitable place, home only to those who are proficient, clever, or ruthless enough to endure it.
Well said
poetic asf you should write
This makes me miss arizona,, it makes me think of all the long empty roads and all the wild places, between Mt lemon and the north rim.
Writing a modern western at the moment and SO excited to have this soundtrack. Tytytytytytytytyytytytyty
I can't tell you how many times I'd walk in the room and this was on, great times I literally can't tell you about
I will find water where there is none, as the sounds of this album wrung and whispered through the morning breeze, the dry sand and sun twitched my nose into a sneeze as I fell on my knees and the earth opened up like a cut that bleeds... 💧water.

Naushad ali also a great indian composer who captivated me
I’ve made too many mistakes in my life, but one thing I am sure of listening to this album was not a mistake this morning
I'm bumping this in the background while reading Blood Meredian and it fits the vibes well
Blood Meridian was my first choice, as well. Even the cover of this album fits.
Best Western story of all time.
A soundtrack for a western film that has NEVER bern filmed ‼ Pure genius 😁
Yet
I haven’t felt this kind of excitement for an album in a long time.
Dude… this is INCREDIBLE. As someone like myself who is stuck in the past and loves the older worlds of yesterday, I have to thank you for bringing more of this type of music into the world of today. Thank you
Your album blew up on the algorithm man. Looks like your going to need to come out with a 2nd one. As an independent music creator myself dont let this push and opportunity go to waste.

Es cierto estaremos esperando más contenido y reconocemos su talento es increíble lo que has compuesto mil gracias!!
We will be watching your career with great interest.

@@StevenLynnMusic The Man in black Fled acros the desert and the gunslinger followed.
Funny how I've lived so many years and never knew how much I needed to hear this until this moment. I will cherish it. I thank you for this creation
Using this soundtrack for a cowboy themed D&D campaign I’m running and it’s amazing!
I was listening to some black metal when this popped up on my suggestions. I DO NOT REGRET CLICKING ON IT.
Make more of this. Don’t stop.
This reminds me of my youth, never paying much attention but listening along to when my family would watch westerns. Crazy how this instantly puts me to sleep and brings me conformt. Thank you for this nostalgia
The revolver is burning in his hands, thin strands of smoke rising slowly trough the air. The sun gleams on the gun, reflecting on the metal pockmarked with rust. Two bandidos are in the muck. The taller one is still wriggling, drawing angels in the damp ground of the city intersection while holding his hands on his belly. Francois is standing, the gun still pointed at the men. He's not sure if he did the right thing, but as sure as hell he don't care. The moving bandido is trying to crawl away, grasping the muck with his fingers. The young cow-puncher chambers another round and, as he was rudely awakened from a dream, moves suddenly with long steps to the dying man.
While traveling in the train from Groningen to Arnhem, the Netherlands, i listen to this and want to say: Thankie Sai, long days and pleasant nights to you!. ( Tips Hat)
Best music to imagine yourself as a protagonist of a western
YT is an incredible platform. I love how you made this album and it's been listened to half a million times almost and it's only been out for a month with only 8k followers. That's incredible! Wonderful album, I'm not all the way through it yet but I'm enjoying it thoroughly thus far! Also, I love the artwork! Kudos all around.
I only had like 2k subscribers when I released this I think. Thanks for listening!
@@StevenLynnMusic Congrats on the new followers, you deserve it, great album!
@@StevenLynnMusicdo you happen to post to Spotify?
@@StevenLynnMusic You're an overnight sensation!
Lol. I know....no such thing. But good on ya for honing and developing your artistry and 'voice'!
I've listened to this so many times that it started to feel like I MUST have been listening to it for longer than a month, yet here we are. I must have found it just after release.
14:13. She’s finally gone for good, rebuilding alone seems impossible, but a cowboy has to remember what lies outside of every door, around every corner and behind every gun. It’s an early morning with a new sun, a new chapter begins.
This is amazing work, makes me feel like im getting ready to watch a 3 hour long badass western. I miss being 13 watching Clint Eastwood with my father, eating smoked ribs drinking exspesnive root beer...
I can just imagine the thousand-yard stare, the cigarillo and the tumbleweed. love it! 🤠
from the moment i heard the "mars, bringer of war" riff in the first song, i knew this would be a beautiful album
Check out the song "Ramses Bringer Of War" by the band Nile 🤘
Sheer Brilliance. The happiest accident I have ever happened upon. My search for the follow to Ennio Morricone's 'The Good The Bad And The Ugly' has finally resolved into something of equivalent magnificence.
new favorite album for desert season 🏜
I'm writing it, amigo. For God, Country and Elmore Leonard. Your music bade me recall a brilliant true story of the old West. It deserves a film - because nobody would believe this man's life. I was going to share his name here - but better to keep it quiet.
I find your musical choices to be evocative and full of primal energy - they work!
The pieces can also frame individual characters thanks to your varied themes and arrangements. Excellent job.
Please do tell, you've got our attention!
Do you like blood meridian and the border trilogy by cormac McCarthy
@bammer150 this must be why i am getting this recommendation...i just started listening to the Blood Meridian story and the author yesterday for first time on TH-cam.
Let's talk about Blood Meridian.
It is just as much torture to read about the hardships of its characters than it is for those characters to survive them. On and on its bleak nothingness spreads out towards the horizon.
It's brilliant in that way, just like The Road, but something about Blood Meridian forbids me from finishing it. It's plodding hell goes on like the beating of the western sun.
@@Kaxopilla i could see myself having some of the same feelings if i were reading the original. The fact i am watching it through this individuals perpective and or interpretation has intrigued me with the storyline.
th-cam.com/video/eu6STuj4njw/w-d-xo.html
i probably listened to this album 9-10 times today. it sounds like a movie i want to watch
How do you listen to 9-10 hours of the same songs in one day?
@@matthewlong7547 I pressed play on Spotify and then didn't turn it off.
@@suburbanyute340 Are you ok?
When the soundtrack is good, it is not necessary to watch the film. Imagination fills in the gaps as we listen. Amazing!
La música perfecta para cerrar los dos últimos capítulos de una novela. Fácil es, un elixir.
Un elissir blue label
The scene where Anne-Marie betrays Blackjack and Harper after the raid breaks my heart every time. The pain in Harper's eyes and the resignation in Blackjack's as he bleeds out says so much about both of them. Definitely one of the best heel-turns in westerns and one of the most complicated villains of the genre.
Can you please tell me the name of the movie
@@matend8125read the title of the album
Spoiler alert !🙉
This is my wake up call I’m writing a western now
This isn't usually my type of music, but the title piqued my interest and I wasn't disappointed! What a great album!
The video description told me you're a composer doing all kinds of interesting things, and it would be great if we could see you compose one of your tracks. No fancy edits needed, just watching over the shoulder of a master at work would be awesome.
Just a little friendly word correction, it's not "peeked" your interest. It actually 'piqued' your interest. Just for future reference bro.
@@cosmo1eleven855 Good to know, thanks. I assumed it was a nonsensical English expression, but that spelling indicates some history behind it instead.
@cosmo1eleven855 and TBd68 Good interaction between you two. @TheBushdoctor68 the title also piqued my interest. It's crazy to me how that alone has so much power to draw people in.
The sun hung high over rattle snake pass , Jack wade stood with his sharps 50 caliber mounted hard against his shoulder as the dust churned the hot morning air . They were coming to kill Marshal wade , Gonna hang him high they vowed , no perdition, no holy intervention , just cold death delivered by the Spoilers a cold breed of men with nothing but blood on their hands of innocent ranchers unlucky enough to cross their path . Judgement day was here . The last stand .
Ok, I'll bite.
Now, this made me appreciate so much of what I've listened to, even in other genres. Like, the Main Theme has ff7 vibes, the Farm Boy track, specifically. So imagine, I'm here listening to this and hallucinating other music. That's great.
What a magnificent find. Part of me wishes there was actually a film to accompany these fantastic pieces of music, but that would probably ruin part of what makes them so special.
A wise man once said:
Ya miss all the shots ya don't take.
20 years from now you'll be regrettin the things ya didn't do much more than those ya did. Go on. Do what ya always been wantin to do. Worst that can happen is that ya don't succeed. But that'll also happen if ya don't try at all.
Чудові мелодіії, перед очима 18 століття і дикий захід...
This is sooo good, I could see this being used as one of the many Ennio Morricone tracks that Quinten Tarantino sneaks into his movies!
Lovely work!
Tarantino is a total tosser that can't come up with anything original but to steal others ideas .... gets Morricone to score a film to try and bring credibilty Leone was the master Tarantino not even the shit on his shoes
Don't ask me why, but to me this soundtrack sounds like if Wes Anderson directed a Western. I love it.
You are hereby summarily awarded the rare Golden Bowie Knife (with .357 magnum champagne cluster) heritage presentation piece for this pheee-nominal work of love, patience, and inspired artful music-craft. Great googly-moogly -- we here at Dust Junction Heights certainly hope you achieve much wider recognition, praise, and earthly reward from your labors! [ Where the heck are the soundtrack scouts when we all really need 'em to find you?! ]
Man, this is insanely good. Casual genius.
Can’t wait!!!!! Need some new tracks to listen to while I sketch or play video games
I jam along with it on accustic guitar
@@wealldieatthehandsoflovedones that is so cool man
Man I love your work. If i was a game developer and wanted to make a wild west game I definitely know who I would hire
OMG! I remember this movie! This brings back so many memories. What a great story!
One of my favorites, and the only spaghetti western that I’ve ever costarred in with Clint Eastwood and Charles Bronson. Damn, what a good flick! I wish you call could have seen it.
This is one of my favourite Western Playlists of all.
Well damn, this albums got true grit.
What an amazing soudtrack. Someone should make a movie to go along with this.
Travelling through beautiful valleys of Uttarakhand and tripping on this mellow country inspired blues. Cheers to the Artists.
Every time I hear your sequence for "Burying Friends" in this piece and one of your other works it makes me think of Johnny Cash's version of Hurt. The chord progression is melodic and beautiful. I love your use of these notes. In this composition and his, I am chilled in the best way possible. Well done.
It actually sounds a lot like stairway to heaven to me
@@perrinstory Good ear. I can hear that as well.
Playing this while making tacos seems to give them more panache 🐎 🌮 👢
I'm from the midwest. This music puts me in another state.
I wish this picture was on my cigarettes pack instead of a pair of a blown up lungs. Good music!
Love the music my favorites are: Wild Frontier, Western Prayer, Homestead, Whiskey Stomp, Burying Friends and Vengance :)
Same man haha
You've hit the nail on the head with the vibe and atmosphere 👍
Played this while hiking at night in Moab Utah, best decision I’ve ever made.
The algorithm did its magic again.
This album is perfect background music for a tabletop campaign I'm making. Great work!
I appreciate that the algorithm knows that I am a fan of western, very good album, congratulations, it goes to my favorites, greetings from Colombia!!!!
It sent it to me even though I never listen to anything like this. Unless you count The Gospel Plow, and that was months ago.
Bro you made the rdr3 Soundtrack 🔥🔥🔥
Burying Friends gave me goose bumps
This gives me The Last of Us TV show's main theme vibes. It's pretty good.
This music transports into an epic western movie, the sound is really incredible, the melodies very beautiful!!!!!❤❤❤
TH-cam having it's once a year moment, recommending me an actual good channel.
Instant subscribed.
15 Seconds: Additcted, it's all its got needed. Thanks! Thumbs up.
I would love this to become part of a series of unmade western soundtracks and I'd also love a metal version that has styles from the various genres like doom and thrash
I'm a big metal fan, it'll happen at some point
Would love some folk metal like The Hu mixed up in that. Mongolian thoat metal in a western sounds like everything I want in life.
Absolutely unbelievable. Such beautiful, powerful, and haunting vibes. Big time Morricone.
nothing like drinking neat warm johnny black and listening to this while pretending that you're in a spaghetti western.
I am so gald I found this playlist!!! I am currently writting a Western Themed Dungeons and Dragons module and I have looking for playlists that get me in the western mood. I have been getting a little tired of playlists that repeat the same songs I have heard 100 times already, and to be honest it was really killing my creativity. This is giving me the fresh yet classic vibes I have been looking for. Thank you!
Are you writing it for DnD or are you using Deadlands or Deadlands Reloaded? I have run a few Reloaded games and really enjoyed the change in mechanics but the shift was hard on some players.
Anyway, good luck!
@@jacksoncarter3964 I’m writing for D&D, cause I’m more familiar with the system and because I’m trying to get the fun vibes of D&D in a western setting. I have played dead lands and enjoyed it, but it’s pretty gruesome and punishing, which can be fun in its own right, but isn’t something I really want to write. Also I want to write my own world lore and the dead lands lore is really cool and I don’t want to write over that. Anyways, that is my over complicated answer to your simple question. Have a great one!
Have a nice day strangers 🎩
Masterful, you should be really proud of this creation.
Thank you for making my walk to Dunkin a little more exciting. Yeehaw, everyone 🤠
Someone making music that ISNT gangster rap?! Sometimes gangster rap seems like the only music genre left. You sir have my eternal love and respect. Keep art and creativity alive!
oh boyyyy, i'm in a western watching mood again. time to binge all the classics
Who could have told western movies would have been revolutionized by an Italian director and an Italian composer?
