I don't have notifications on for many things, but I had one for this. Happy that it's finally here and congrats on the release! Putting headphones on and listening now 🎶
I remember playing Metroid Dread since the day it released. And very quickly, it became one of my favorite games of all time. This symphony brings such nostalgia to that first playthrough. I always love how you sneek various motifs from the Metroid Series into your work. Hunted in particular is a masterpiece, how it's a perfect blend of the EMMI and SA-X themes. An ultimate tribute to the only monsters to hunt Samus! Amazing work man!
It definitely felt like the EMMIs were trying to recapture the vibe of the SA-X, which they couldn't since SA-X is too gangster of course, but I wanted to include that parallel into the album!
I love how you didn't ignore dread completely but you combined with your original stuff and other metroid tributes to create a truly fresh but nostalgic soundtrack, I adore it!!!
That would be a sad Dread album if I ignored all of it lol, but yeah I felt it could use some backup from the OG series so I brought in the big guns to help out a bit!
Dilemma: This popped up in my YT feed about 30 seconds ago, but it's 1am already and I can't just fire up my organ this late at night to wake anyone. 😱
@@SamoStudios Okey dokey 👌😁 P.S. Fav track so far for reORGANization: 07 / Dominion -- however, I'll give everything a shot to get the goosebumps all over my back ^^
@@SamoStudios P.P.S. There's an update with a more recent play-along practice recording of "Metroid Cinema reORGANized", which you can access using the same link that I emailed you back then on July 1st 2022. One day, I'd really like to be able to play this live on the big fat pipe organ in a real cathedral with your OST in parallel. This, for sure, would be the most goosebumpiest thing EVER for anyone who attends it. There's a 7.1 FLAC master of the practice recording as well, just let me know if you'd like to give it a shot.
Awesome work as always. Absolutely adore this version of Kraid's Lair, that is one of my favorite tracks in the series and this gives it a wonderful sense of grandeur.
Thanks! I was let down that it wasn't in the game honestly... I mean, they literally had Kraid in it so what better opportunity! So I had to correct that lol
@SamoStudios Same, though I suppose it might have been intentional so that Kraid was a surprise. I think they showed him in the trailer so that probably isn't it. It always bothered me a little that it isn't in Super Metroid either (not that he has much of a lair there).
I actually only recently got the pleasure of listening to your "Into the Green World" because I hadn't listened to all of the original Harmony of a Hunter. I started realizing how unusually epic and well crafted the Brinstar Green cover was, and I was like, "Wait...who did this one?" Checked and went, "Ah. Of course."😂😎 Thanks for the upload! I'll be sure to revel in this soon enough.🥰😎
The Herculean task of making dread music exciting. I’m about to start this and see if it’s possible. I really loved your work im harmony of a hunter. Man it’s crazy tor bunk about when I first listened to that. Seeing your name again brings back pleasant memories
Oh my god Sam, as another comment said, I truly feel you've surpassed yourself immensely with this. The unholy amounts of quality this has is just unbelievable, let alone the perfect balance between Dread, Fusion and other Metroid classics instruments and motifs! Thanks for this man, you've really given us a delicious treat! Congratulations on the result of this hard work!
I have been waiting for this work for a long time! My favorite is Hunted. Despite SA-X being a particularly impressive boss in Metroid Fusion, there were few arrangements of that music. I am very happy to hear it in your magnificent arrangement.
Sam, this album might just be the peak of your music career, with some parts somehow surpassing your already amazing Metroid Cinematica/Recharged. That's how much I love it.
Thanks so much! It's ironic since after playing Dread I wasn't that excited about the soundtrack but I already committed to making an album so I had to do it lol. But, there were a few cool tracks to play with at least and I gave it my all
Thanks for releasing a great album! My favorite is Power. Your majestic orchestral arrangement of the memorable phrases of the Ravenbeek theme makes me want to listen to it over and over again. I would love to hear your arrangements of the music for stages such as Cataris and Dairon, as well as the music for bosses such as Experiment No. Z-57 and Drogyga. I look forward to it.
Yesss I waited for this one! And it sounds great!! Also, is it possible to know what all these songs are a remix of? (Like I know the first one is a remix of the intro but I'm not sure for all of them)
For the most part I was disappointed with the music of Dread so I’m glad you punched it up. I really wanted it to incorporate more melodies that you can hum along with. It doesn’t have to be all atmospheric. I love what you’ve done with it.
Agreed completely- other Metroid games also had atmospheric music but it was memorable, there's a few gems in Dread but for the most part it was basically like background noise so I tried my best to turn it into something most listenable!
My favorite song is Dominion in this because it's just a remix of kraid lair/red brinstar Play song you did previously from Metroid cinematica recharged
I don't see any issue with them myself so that's probably just personal taste, and Genres are just loose definitions for easy classification, breaking outside of those expectations is how a LOT of good things get made, if you suppress creativity just to stay on the rails your not going to do much that you enjoy, let alone that others might enjoy
@@Beterot Yeah I probably over-reacted a bit, got a bit overly heated when I saw the comment first time watching. Can definitely agree though, Love the Soundtrack
@@UNSCPILOT Like how Pirates of the Caribbean uses an entirely orchestral soundtrack throughout most of the trilogy, and then during the parley scene in the third movie they suddenly bust out an electric guitar?
I don't have notifications on for many things, but I had one for this. Happy that it's finally here and congrats on the release!
Putting headphones on and listening now 🎶
Thanks! Hope you enjoy!
Undertow scratches my brain in just the right way. Best Burenia remix out there.
Thanks! Definitely the best area music in the game so had to include it!

FINALLY. can’t wait to stream it!
The True Metroid Remake we deserve 😢
This is very nice! I soured pretty hard on Metroid Dread, but still enjoyed the music. Very nice!
I hope you never stop making awesome music. You’re the reason I played Chrono Trigger.
I have been waiting for this work for a long time!
My favorite is Hunted.
Despite SA-X being a particularly impressive boss in Metroid Fusion, there were few arrangements of that music.
I am very happy to hear it in your magnificent arrangement.
That was definitely tricky to compose but I wanted to give SA-X some love!
Only our generations master composer could make dread soundtrack this good. bravo sir. bravo
YESSSSSSSSSSSSS! Can't believe I'm this early

OMG thank you mate 🔥❤️
This is incredible Sam. I’ll just say it right away: this soundscape is 100% better than the one included in Dread.
Woooo!
Your first Metroid album was the first thing I bought with my first debit card. Man, how time flies...
LETSSS GOOOOO el momento mas esperado para todos
_Hadar... sen OLMEN!_
"Power... Is Everything"
~Infamous last words from a fool about to lose... Everything
What a frigging cool day it is when Sam Dillard uploads new music. Hunted is genius!
Thanks for releasing a great album!
My favorite is Power.
Your majestic orchestral arrangement of the memorable phrases of the Ravenbeek theme makes me want to listen to it over and over again.
I would love to hear your arrangements of the music for stages such as Cataris and Dairon, as well as the music for bosses such as Experiment No. Z-57 and Drogyga. I look forward to it.
Awesome!! I hope you release a physical CD version. A big shout from Uruguay!
Same, I really hope you make a print run of physical CD!
Amazing work, as always! Take a break, you've earned it :)
Sam this is God-Tier as always 💪 👊 🔥🔥
This is incredible...I am literally speechless.
Fantastic job sir.
Thanks! Was a tough album to make, glad you liked it!
You've outdone yourself 👌
yes! this is fantastic
this album is a masterpiece just like I thought it would be!
Really good 👍
All are fire but so far 09. Legacy is Golden
I love Tectonic. My favorite track from Fusion fused with my favorite from Dread. Sector AQA x Artaria!
It sorta came about by accident while I was messing around with synths and reminded me of AQA, so, I just went with it lol
@@SamoStudios Amazing things come out of play and experimentation!
oh yeah, this is the one
Yesss I waited for this one! And it sounds great!!
Also, is it possible to know what all these songs are a remix of? (Like I know the first one is a remix of the intro but I'm not sure for all of them)

❤❤❤❤
Could you release each of these songs separately?
Edit: on TH-cam music I mean.
The Dairon tracks struck me as Fusion sounding for some reason and the techy-electro aspect also made me think they could go with AQA somehow. Idk...
Survival. Commence.
How can you write music that is both game and symphonic level?
I ask myself that every time I start one of these projects lol
Is this going on Apple Music? That’s where I usually listen.
@@mycabbages3538 Those streaming services don't allow free albums so that is unlikely for now
will these be available as individual tracks?
I'm trying to think of a way Burenia Depths could be mixed with AQA Depths... hmmm...
Ili chozo man faragae ata sen moboris ashkar behek
Can you put some timestamps on this video?
I knew I was forgetting something- done
My favorite song is Dominion in this because it's just a remix of kraid lair/red brinstar Play song you did previously from Metroid cinematica recharged
In fact it's a remake of my very first Kraid's Lair song, The Crimson Depths, from 14 years ago, mixed with Cataris from Dread
Great work... just the Churchbells at the beginning aren't don't fit the genre
I don't see any issue with them myself so that's probably just personal taste, and Genres are just loose definitions for easy classification, breaking outside of those expectations is how a LOT of good things get made, if you suppress creativity just to stay on the rails your not going to do much that you enjoy, let alone that others might enjoy
@UNSCPILOT All right, I hereby make it clear that this is just my personal opinion
I still like the soundtrack
@@Beterot Yeah I probably over-reacted a bit, got a bit overly heated when I saw the comment first time watching.
Can definitely agree though, Love the Soundtrack
@@UNSCPILOT Like how Pirates of the Caribbean uses an entirely orchestral soundtrack throughout most of the trilogy, and then during the parley scene in the third movie they suddenly bust out an electric guitar?
Disappointing. I wanted full cover of all Dread OST. Not some lame mixes...
Feel free to make your own, I covered the few songs I liked in Dread
Looking forward to see some of your tracks, you fucking stupid Ivan. We expect to be better than the mongoloid movies you uploaded to your channel.
MAGNIFICENT. ❤️🔥 You _never_ disappoint, Mr. Dillard. 🥹👍
