This feels like not just music about working for DRG, but about the journey there from your original fantasy-like home planet and the impression from the first encounter with strange and unfamiliar world of DRG and Hoxxes.
I love the idea that DRG is just a really far-future fantasy setting, like all the mythological creatures have long since fallen and the races like dwarves and elves have become spacefaring civilisations fighting over interstellar land as opposed to the fantastical ones of old. DRG's universe is so damn ripe for worldbuilding beyond the space stuff, I'd love to see them hint at that kind of stuff.
@@localsnekI like to think that the dwarves live in a sort of bubble, just mining away at the planet. It's just that Hoxxes itself will be affected by outer sources. Maybe next season will have to do with a Mana Storm or something that begins to affect the bugs and the terrain, but the dwarves would be unaffected because they are magically deaf or something.
@@localsnek i always liked to think a lot of those races survived and either learned to coexist or went somewhere else. somewhere, out there, there is a fleet of badass space dragons.
@localsnek I like to think that the rival corporation is actually the Elves and they send in robots to do their dirty work cause they don't want to get their hands dirty or put In the effort like the Dwarves.
Rock and stone to the maker of one of the most memorable soundtracks ever! I wish Troels Rohde Jørgensen all the best. Forever with us, no matter how far, through the amazing ost and sound design.
Seriously this game has some of the best music and sound of any I’ve played. The distant glyphid screams, the tunes that really get you going in the heat of combat or marvel at the magnificent caves, I listen to it on an almost daily basis 😬
This new track made me realize how badly I want a DRG ost Vol. III. The forlorn, ancient feeling this song gives is currently incomparable. It makes me sad that Troels is leaving. Whoever comes to replace them has some huge shoes to fill.
while most tracks have a bright sci-fi/horror feel, this one feels much more like a traditional dwarven shanty... i wonder where it could be used if used at all...
@@aediljakobovska Thanks. I do sound design and music for the upcoming game "Void Crew", though the music sounds nothing like DRG,... Because it's not DRG ;)
Damn. I was hoping to hear a Vol. 3 for a future update! Alas. Your work is legendary, Troels. Thank you for everything. Your OST help to make DRG a very special game. Good luck in the future. And as always. Rock and Stone, brother!
Troels was the sound designer, not the composer. He's not the guy that actually made the songs, though he was certainly an important part of the game's sound design. A Vol. 3 isn't impossible.
"The track will be added to Vol. 2 of the soundtrack on Steam in the coming days (Spotify later) and in-game aswell with the release of Season 4." - Mikkel Martin Pedersen Game Director of DRG Your wish will be granted.
Im very glad this song is very prominent in the ambience for caves. You instantly recognize the tribute, and its fantastic. I feel anytime this song comes on, I wanna be able to salute Troels himself in-game.
God bless TRJ, it’s sad to see him go as Deep Rock Galactic has one of my favorite soundtracks of all time but we all have to move on at some point. This song made me tear up (quite) a bit knowing this is his swan song. Hell I love this soundtrack so much I ordered the vinyl almost the moment I was able to. I’m gonna be playing the deep rock galactic board game with my friends later today and I’m gonna be thinking about this the whole time as I play the soundtrack in the background 😭 Rock and Stone TRJ! We are gonna miss you but I can’t wait to see what you do next! ❤
Thank you so much. It’s amazing how much of an impact this game has had on people. I’m just lucky to have been a part of that. Have a great board game session and a great summer. I will be updating the YT channel in the future and show stuff I’m working on (eventually). Cheers!
@@trjaudio Mange af dine sange er på min playliste. De er bare virkelig gode, når man er ude og gå/træner. De rammer perfekt, fordi der er nok tempo og energi i dem, til at man kan bevæge sig til rytmen. Samtidig så er det heller ikke for hurtigt, så man ikke kan nå det. Der er også dem, som ikke spiller, når der er swarms/flygter til drop pod. Fx *Ode to the Fallen* . Den er nok min ynglingssang sammen med *Robot Getaway* . *Ode to the Fallen* er både trist, glad og en blanding til sidst. Jeg synes, at den er rigtig god, til at få en til at føle sig som om man er i _Memorial Hall_ . Den får mig til, at tænke på at man mindes de døde. Men man skal også være håbefuld på fremtiden/at komme videre og fortsætte deres arbejde. Du er VIRKELIG god til at lave mange forskellige stemninger med din musik.
troels I'll miss ya bro, please never stop making legendary robot sounds like the prospector's "BUP AAAAH", no seriously this is not a joke that's my favorite sound
Don't know if I'm the only one, but I get some sad vibes from this. Like it is an actual farewell in the form of music. Not sure if that is what Troels was going for or not but I love it either way. We dwarves are sad to see you leave, but we are damn happy to have had the chance to listen to your talent for all this time. We wish you the very best. Rock and Stone!
It feels as if a dwarven burial is taking place on hoxxes. or as if we are hearing a song made to remind the dwarves of the homeworld they came from. like a cultural anthem for the dwarves that accepts both the new scifi mining company we know them for, and the ancient days of mining deep below rocky mountains together. It is a nostalgic feeling of melancholy, but also one of pride. it embodies his journey starting as the sound designer to now leaving really well too, starting off as a greenbeard but growing his talent immensely over time.
@@thickbread4225 well that explains it. i cant hear ambient music at all. all sounds turned down and music maxed out, maybe then if its quiet, but then i cant hear any other important sounds. user error maybe but i like being able to hear if an enemy is around me than try to hear the music in dead silence. from what a friend says its supposed to be louder even when he say my audio settings and my recording what i could hear
This played for me last night when I was playing a solo deep dive, during the final stretch when the pod landed this started playing without pause. Just me and Bosco and was ambient as fuck. Came here to find out wtf I heard cause i had never heard it in game before.
If there is ever a song to go out to, it’s this. We finally have a DRG song with a BANJO. I’ve been waiting for that for years! Rock and Stone, Troels. Your service has been exemplary.
@@aarepelaa1142 1.) You’re a bunch of roughnecks trekking it through the most dangerous planet in the galaxy, you’re workin hard, and you’ve got a ton of guns. The almost western theming’s there. Plus, I just think it sounds cool. I think it still fits in the soundtrack, despite the game’s sci-fi setting. Hell, I think it just fits regardless. It mixes with the droning synth that the soundtrack uses a lot surprisingly well. 2.) I’m from the southern United States, so I’m biased.
@@aarepelaa1142 Play some Rimworld, it's a very similar vibe, especially if your colonists drop down in a mountainous area and dig their new home in the rock and stone. Or Oxygen Not Included where your Duplicants carve out a habitat inside a space asteroid. Both OSTs have banjos in them, so this theme fits the mood perfectly.
One more tune before a journey into a new chapter... Godspeed Troels Rohde Jørgensen, I hope you all the best into your next endeavors. Rock and Stone!
The banjo/old-time-miner motif was a great call--I love this track. As other's have mentioned, it's a great fit for sandblasted corridors, or perhaps as an option when doing the manually-activated salvage/repair or core-infuser activities, to help drive home that feeling of dogged persistence while trying to work on a pile of scrap-metal.
Awesome song and thank you Troels for one of the best soundscapes I've experienced in a videogame, immaculate sound design. Happy journeys on your next adventure. Whoever comes after has big shoes to fill (but i hope success for too).
I remember very clearly my first mission, it was a point extraction in the crystalline caves. I was really enjoying the experience, but when I heard the first synth bass notes of "Absolute Zero" playing in the background, that's when I fell in love with the game. Thank you, Mr. Troels!
We thank you Troels for bringing us this games amazing soundtrack I wish for nothing but the best down the line and hopefully get the chance to hear your amazing works in other future projects but until then, Rock and Stone brother.
Troels, My god your music has grown, from all the way back from attack of the glyphids to this. The progress is phenomenal. Every player, dev and dwarf will miss you. I hope for the best in the future. Rock And Stone
This feels like the song that would be used in a DRG movie where Karl makes his last stand, holding off a swarm or a dreadnought as the rest of his team make their way into the drop pod. A fitting song for the heroic yet tragic end of a truly legendary figure in the ranks of Deep Rock Galactic's miners. Rock and Stone miner, may your future be as golden and glorious.
DRG’s soundtrack is truly one of its kind, a masterpiece, striking a rich vein of emotions. Troels melodies echoing in the cavernous depths of our soul like sonic pickaxes, chiseling away at the boundaries between reality and the unknown. But as the rare mineral vein is depleted, the time has come for Troels to move on from DRG. As we continue our adventures, we'll carry his music in our hearts, reminding us that we were lucky to be part of such a special band of dwarven brothers. Rock and Stone Troels, thank you!
What a sad announcement, but an amazing announcement at the same time, a new start for a new journey. Thank you so much for your hard work towards DRG. One of the only soundtracks that I listen to on its own, and it gives me goosebumps. I regard DRG's sound design as one of the best of any game Ive ever played. Wishing you luck on your future endeavors, you can expect me to follow along! Thank you so much for your hard work. Rock and stone.
I'm so glad you guys added this track into the rotation of ambient tracks in the game. It's a great way to honor Troel's hard work with the game by having an homage track that players can hear while playing the game.
Thank you Troels, for creating the atmosphere for this game with your banging music, between ambience of traversing the caves to the blood pumping music during a swarm this game would only be half as special without you. Rock and Stone Troels, may your music career only go up from here.
Troels' beautiful scores added so much to this already fantastic game. Those songs get the blood pumping. It makes you feel so isolated and alone. It added scares, thrills, and down time that was so necessary. This is a beautiful swansong, and I can't help but thank him wherever he is, whatever it is he's doing. Rock and Stone.
I salute Troels, his work will forever be ingrained in my memory, and is a core reason why DRG is such a fun game for me. Best wishes to him wherever he may go, we salute you. Rock and stone miner ❤
Music is a massively important part of any entertainment media, that's a big reason why Sonic and Halo have been so memorable for me. Troels did a great job with this game
Thank you for the legendary music, Troels. If management was smart enough to hire him in the first place, I have little doubt in my mind that they will hire a suitable replacement.
Interesting music, looking forward to hearing this during Season 4! Also I wish the best of luck to the sound designer on his future endeavors. We salute you and Rock and Stone!
Thank you Troels for your contribution on making DRG as immersive as it is now. Good luck on your future endeavors, I can't wait to see (or rather hear) what new things you will bring to the table. Rock and Stone!
It''s sad to hear that he had to go, but he will always be remembered in the community as the one who brought the amazing soundtracks DRG had. Rock and Strone.
Rock and Stone Troels! You have produced possibly my favorite ost of any game I’ve ever played and I know I’m not alone in that. I wish you the absolute best. Thank you so much for all of your hard word, and once again, Rock and Stone!
Troels was a big part of DRG and GSG, you will forever be the legend who made this game what it is today, Rock and Stone Brother, I wish you the most luck in your future endeavours and hope that you can make other games as great as DRG, Rock and Stone.
I really want to hear this during my mission! GSG, please-please-please-please-please!!!!! PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE!!!!
Beautiful parting gift, friend. Thank you for all your hard work over the years on this extraordinary game; you were the perfect Dwarf for the assignment. Best wishes on your future endeavors, i look forward to hearing your work again some day. ROCK & STONE YOU BEAUTIFUL DWARF
I wish you a great journey. May your music herald every of your steps. You simply can not imagine our grin, the first time we heard "Dance of the Dreadnaught" on an incoming swarm. Rock &Stone, dear prospector of sound. It has been a pleasure.
looking forward to your future work TRJ! the drg soundtrack has been inextricably linked to the game itself from my earliest missions, and at 1k hours when i think of the game i still think of the swarm songs. I'm sure everything else you'll make will be just as memorable and iconic
Glad to have heard your magnificent work for this game; And I'm happy and can't wait to hear about the future ahead; I hope it goes well and smooth, Rock and Stone!
I remember the mission where this song hit me as clear as day... An escort mission, hazard level 3, sandblasted corridors and as driller on Solo... I tend to just play solo because I just prefer to be alone with Bosco. But this music going through made me realize how...quiet...it is by yourself. I describe my driller's personality as "an old veteran that would rather have bosco and himself over an actually competent team". But, hearing this song brought a sort of lonely feeling and i was walking around basking in the music more than i was running around refilling dotty. Its...wierd...
So long Troels, i wish you all the best with your music. Drg sound track is one of my favorites, and it added so much atmosphere to deep rock. Rock and stone dude, best of luck to ya!
Hearing this song for the first time in-game was bittersweet. It's amazing, maybe even my favorite song in DRG, but it came with the knowledge that it represents the end of an era as well. Good luck in your future endeavors Troels. Rock and stone!
I took a long break from the game and recently played a few matches to see if anything good was added. Heard dungeon synth and was instantly hooked again.
The music was one of the things that kept me playing for hours in the very early access days. Thank you for making these soundtracks Troels! Rock and Stone, Brother!
I'd LOVE to see more music like this, feels like good ole fashioned dwarven exploration music blended with those ominous synths of the 80s biggest sci-fi movies. I love it! Truly a glorious sendoff for Troels, Rock and Stone!
Troels Rohde Jørgensen youve made some of the best music i ever heard espeacilly robot gateway such a banger and i wish you the best of luck in the future
Thank you for all your work at GSG, Troels. The sound design of DRG is one of the unseen heroes, adding so much atmosphere and character to the mines while remaining almost unnoticed by the conscious mind. Deep Rock wouldn't feel the same without it. The music just adds to that with the future-retro aesthetic, delivering everything from terror to wonder with its synthy goodness. I hope I never don't stop to appreciate Fathomless Tomb when it comes on. May GSG keep up the level of audio design quality that Troels brought, and may he find rich mines and good beer wherever he goes next. Rock and Stone, Troels; you've made us proud.
Goodbye Troels An incredible send off to an incredible developer Sad that we won’t get to see his Viking fire boat esc funeral, but I guess that’s for his close friends only
"Congratulations, Troels! Your excellent performance for DRG hasn't gone unnoticed. On behalf of the company, I wish you the best of luck in your future endeavours, but you'll need to complete one last bonus track as your final assignment. Prove yourself, and a bright future awaits you."

This feels like not just music about working for DRG, but about the journey there from your original fantasy-like home planet and the impression from the first encounter with strange and unfamiliar world of DRG and Hoxxes.
this exactly. like the precursor to the hoxxes music
I love the idea that DRG is just a really far-future fantasy setting, like all the mythological creatures have long since fallen and the races like dwarves and elves have become spacefaring civilisations fighting over interstellar land as opposed to the fantastical ones of old. DRG's universe is so damn ripe for worldbuilding beyond the space stuff, I'd love to see them hint at that kind of stuff.
@@localsnekI like to think that the dwarves live in a sort of bubble, just mining away at the planet. It's just that Hoxxes itself will be affected by outer sources. Maybe next season will have to do with a Mana Storm or something that begins to affect the bugs and the terrain, but the dwarves would be unaffected because they are magically deaf or something.
@@localsnek i always liked to think a lot of those races survived and either learned to coexist or went somewhere else. somewhere, out there, there is a fleet of badass space dragons.

I think this theme would fit in the memorial hall, where the old theme and this alternates. 50/50 chance for either to play.

I'm so glad you guys added this track into the rotation of ambient tracks in the game. It's a great way to honor Troel's hard work with the game by having an homage track that players can hear while playing the game.
Thank you Troels, for creating the atmosphere for this game with your banging music, between ambience of traversing the caves to the blood pumping music during a swarm this game would only be half as special without you.
Rock and Stone Troels, may your music career only go up from here.
Troels' beautiful scores added so much to this already fantastic game. Those songs get the blood pumping. It makes you feel so isolated and alone. It added scares, thrills, and down time that was so necessary. This is a beautiful swansong, and I can't help but thank him wherever he is, whatever it is he's doing. Rock and Stone.
Good luck on your ventures Troels, keep those bangers coming from wherever you go. Rock and stone.
I salute Troels, his work will forever be ingrained in my memory, and is a core reason why DRG is such a fun game for me. Best wishes to him wherever he may go, we salute you. Rock and stone miner ❤
Thank you Troels for letting me know there's an Exploder next to m-
You have produced one of the best music pieces of all time. We will miss you!
This song is going to be a great addition to the game.
Good work miner, we salute you 😀✌
Music is a massively important part of any entertainment media, that's a big reason why Sonic and Halo have been so memorable for me. Troels did a great job with this game
Thank you for the legendary music, Troels. If management was smart enough to hire him in the first place, I have little doubt in my mind that they will hire a suitable replacement.
With how different this is to the rest of the soundtrack, I wasn’t expecting to like it too much. But god DAMN this is good
Interesting music, looking forward to hearing this during Season 4!
Also I wish the best of luck to the sound designer on his future endeavors. We salute you and Rock and Stone!
Thank you Troels for your contribution on making DRG as immersive as it is now. Good luck on your future endeavors, I can't wait to see (or rather hear) what new things you will bring to the table.
Rock and Stone!
Thanks Troels for the excellent soundtrack. I listen to both volumes at work frequently, and I wish you the best on your future plans.
It''s sad to hear that he had to go, but he will always be remembered in the community as the one who brought the amazing soundtracks DRG had. Rock and Strone.
Rock and Stone Troels! You have produced possibly my favorite ost of any game I’ve ever played and I know I’m not alone in that. I wish you the absolute best. Thank you so much for all of your hard word, and once again, Rock and Stone!
Troels was a big part of DRG and GSG, you will forever be the legend who made this game what it is today, Rock and Stone Brother, I wish you the most luck in your future endeavours and hope that you can make other games as great as DRG, Rock and Stone.
I always come back to this song. There's just something about it.
Might be one of the best space-western tracks I've ever heard, it combines the western ambient with the ancient space-like vibe so well.
I really want to hear this during my mission! GSG, please-please-please-please-please!!!!! PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE!!!!
Don’t worry, the accompanying steam post states that it’ll come with season 4.
It does play in-game during missions, so…
Beautiful parting gift, friend. Thank you for all your hard work over the years on this extraordinary game; you were the perfect Dwarf for the assignment. Best wishes on your future endeavors, i look forward to hearing your work again some day.
ROCK & STONE YOU
BEAUTIFUL DWARF
I booted up drg after a long while and on the first mission heard this, it gave me genuine old school dwarwen vibes.
I wish you a great journey. May your music herald every of your steps.
You simply can not imagine our grin, the first time we heard "Dance of the Dreadnaught" on an incoming swarm.
Rock &Stone, dear prospector of sound. It has been a pleasure.
looking forward to your future work TRJ! the drg soundtrack has been inextricably linked to the game itself from my earliest missions, and at 1k hours when i think of the game i still think of the swarm songs. I'm sure everything else you'll make will be just as memorable and iconic
Glad to have heard your magnificent work for this game;
And I'm happy and can't wait to hear about the future ahead;
I hope it goes well and smooth,
Rock and Stone!
I remember the mission where this song hit me as clear as day... An escort mission, hazard level 3, sandblasted corridors and as driller on Solo... I tend to just play solo because I just prefer to be alone with Bosco. But this music going through made me realize how...quiet...it is by yourself. I describe my driller's personality as "an old veteran that would rather have bosco and himself over an actually competent team". But, hearing this song brought a sort of lonely feeling and i was walking around basking in the music more than i was running around refilling dotty. Its...wierd...
Another Bangers ! good luck in the future Troels :)
Ah man, hate to see Troels go. Best of luck in the future man, you've definitely got the talent!!
So long Troels, i wish you all the best with your music. Drg sound track is one of my favorites, and it added so much atmosphere to deep rock. Rock and stone dude, best of luck to ya!
Rock and Stone Jørgensen. Thank you for providing DRG with a soundtrack like no other game.
Hearing this song for the first time in-game was bittersweet. It's amazing, maybe even my favorite song in DRG, but it came with the knowledge that it represents the end of an era as well.
Good luck in your future endeavors Troels. Rock and stone!
1:16 always hits and I think of Risk of Rain music, it goes so well with just chillin' in the caves.
Fellow Risk of Rain enjoyer here. I can hear it, kinda gives "Who Can Fathom the Soundless Depths" vibes
Man I really need this on Spotify 😭😭😭
I took a long break from the game and recently played a few matches to see if anything good was added. Heard dungeon synth and was instantly hooked again.
This song played in sand corridors and it fitted so well I loved it and it was during a deep dive so I got to listen to it for a while
A pure legond...... His songs could never be replaced.
Rock And Stone Brotha, fare well and may God bless you
We will miss you. Never forgetting what you gave us. Rock and stone!
Perfect tribute not going to lie.
And the title? Almost as if It also describes Troels' journey.
We will miss you my man
Rock and Karl-damn Stone.
😙
Every time I hear this song with friends, they always say “huh, I’ve never heard this one before, is it new?”
Without fail
There better be hundreds of remixes of this and tributes to him for years to come.
The music was one of the things that kept me playing for hours in the very early access days. Thank you for making these soundtracks Troels! Rock and Stone, Brother!
I'd LOVE to see more music like this, feels like good ole fashioned dwarven exploration music blended with those ominous synths of the 80s biggest sci-fi movies. I love it!
Truly a glorious sendoff for Troels, Rock and Stone!
This should play at the start of an Industrial Sabotage mission before any swarms show up
Music is what made DRG for me. Farewell!
Troels Rohde Jørgensen youve made some of the best music i ever heard espeacilly robot gateway such a banger and i wish you the best of luck in the future
ROCK AND STONE to the creator of the best musics heard
ROCK AND STONE, Troels! You did pretty well
Thank you for all your work at GSG, Troels. The sound design of DRG is one of the unseen heroes, adding so much atmosphere and character to the mines while remaining almost unnoticed by the conscious mind. Deep Rock wouldn't feel the same without it. The music just adds to that with the future-retro aesthetic, delivering everything from terror to wonder with its synthy goodness. I hope I never don't stop to appreciate Fathomless Tomb when it comes on. May GSG keep up the level of audio design quality that Troels brought, and may he find rich mines and good beer wherever he goes next. Rock and Stone, Troels; you've made us proud.
Goodbye Troels
An incredible send off to an incredible developer
Sad that we won’t get to see his Viking fire boat esc funeral, but I guess that’s for his close friends only
He's not dead...
Heard this just now in a mission, had to look it up.
I dig this, would be great in sandblasted.
he left us with such a banger, but dont be sad miners be happy for the journey his and on and be happy for the new song guy weve got in the team!
We'll miss you, Troels, good luck in your future projects and thank you for being a part in making DRG what it is today with your amazing music.
