Man, Silent Hill 4 was such a depressing game. Especially when you looked through the window and saw people living their lives while you are locked up in a room with demons.
I agree
it was based on 2021
so it's like real life then!
For some reason, at times, I felt bad for the people outside... more than I did for Henry.
@@SurvivalSpheres me too. Those clueless people had no idea..
"The more of them there are around you, the lonelier you feel." This is how I feel around people :(
It gets harder and harder to find the right ones...
That's....depressingly accurate to how I feel sometimes....
You feel like an interloper or a ghost just wandering unseen through the lives of others, not quite there
Jesus, this is depressing. Imagine the thought of once living in what seemed to be a normal town, and these are the recollections. The music is captivating.
"Are cities designed for cars or for people?" -Derrick Jensen
Cars, I realized this once I got my driver's license and did some driving.
For everyone
@@SzymonZ.Olszowski sadly American cities are built for cars. A walkable future is just within our reach, we only need to take it
sadly cities are designed for cars because driving is what humans do now days to get around sadly we will never go back to the days when cities we're designed for people
For both of them i would say
when you wake up and look outside, it's very foggy, nobody's around
Man, what a great song to exorcise the creepy jacob's ladder ghosts out of my walls on a Friday too. Really puts you in the mood to light candles and stare at your chained front door... Only me? Oh, okay.
No, not only you. "I’ve seen them, too… Everywhere, like a plague."
If I woke up in Silent Hill I'd hope to god this would be the first thing I hear...
I’d hope to god to escape. Lol
If you woke up in Silent Hill than God would probably not be in your favor).
God can't help you in Silent Hill
God thay can do anything
This game may have been scary, but this has one of the most depressing stories on par with Silent Hill 2.
Fully agreed. SH4's story was the only one that hit me as hard as SH2's.
@@SurvivalSpheres No kidding. SH2 is one of the few games that can make me cry. And SH4 made me feel bad for a serial killer.
@@ghouldash9761 SH4 made me feel bad with so many aspects! Really 'sick' things going on.... those hautings made my mind and stomach go crazy, and so did Eileen's signs of slowly 'turning' ...losing her sanity.
@@SurvivalSpheres Speaking of Eileen, her giant head nearly gave me a heart attack. And don't even get me started on the Hauntings.
@@ghouldash9761 Oh man those trembling eyes that kept following you and that certain kind of moaning...
This is my world, what a masterpiece
An instant new favorite from the first five seconds. 👀
Great job. I often wake up very early in the morning to start my work day and I often find myself putting on one of your videos to ease and calm me as I start my day. The same when I want to wind down at night as well.
Oh man, I do that too! I have an entire playlist of mostly SH influenced music like this, and I listen to it EVERY DAY, several times, and usually start my work day with it (im a truck driver). I agrer, music like this calms and readies you for the day ahead.
i am an observer, i don't get involved, i don't become emotional or sentimentel, i watch and keep silent.
This seems familiar.... can't remember though
Reminds me of lockdown. Just being trapped inside whilst i age and the seasons change.
This music is the essence of hopelessness, and a quickly fading potent essence of hope itself, rolled into one. The simultaneous contradictory emotional impact is sublime!
I thought this was an actual SH song that I haven't heard yet. You did a really good job at capturing the style!
u are unreal every single one hits every time
Wow this track really hits deep. I mean, I cant get enough of it. Its haunting yet also peaceful, and matches the visuals perfectly. It does drag on just a bit too long tho.
Thank you. May I ask, did you play SH4?
@@SurvivalSpheres no. Ive only played SH2
@@steverobertson1729 The best one! Let's hope for a worthy remake.
Perfection 💚
Def a fan of the live background, I hope you keep that theme going!
I'm a huge silent hill fan, thanks for this enchanting song
this is the kind of music I want my next album to sound like 🤗
One of my damn favorites of the real Silent Hill genre.
Man, the most impressive thing is that about 3 days ago I dreamt that I was playing the piano and I was composing a song that had this same melody from 1:30 to 1:40
That's absolutely wonderful. And a bit creepy as well.
This is a masterpiece
SH 4 was very underrated
It's so deep and elegant... You transported me for a few minutes :)
It feels like a lifetime ago when I listened to your music in the dead of night as I typed away on the keyboard, it looks like I have a lot of catching up to do, haha. It's great to see you're still active, and still the best at making atmospheric music. I hope life is treating you well in these trying times, and I'm looking forward to using your music as a meditation and introspection tool, like I did three years ago.
Three years already? Still your username in connection with the infamous icon seem familiar to me. Welcome back!
Wonderful!
why’s is every song you post my new favorite 😭
If I could describe this video it would be hauntingly beautiful. Seriously you did great with this
Dude this sounds so official, good fucking job
Это шедевр. Такая давящая атмосфера, которую можно получить благодаря одной лишь музыке. Обречённость ощущается физически
I love these silent hill tracks ♡
And they love you!
I feel a vibe mix between SH and RE.
cant believe you dont have millions of subs. Your Channel is my go to place when i need atmosphere for a day to chill.
The reason is obvious: there are not millions of people around here whose minds work like yours. Everything is the way it has to be.
Honestly my favourite music channel. Compiles stuff inspired around the games with my favourite soundtrack. And you pull it off well, keep up the good work!
This is so awesome I'm an artist and I do all my drawings to a lot of your music and it gives me so much more ideas , I find some sounds of your music resembles a form of the unknowing . It definitely is a escape for the time being.
"resembles a form of the unknowing" that's deep.... thank you for commenting.
This is absolutely beautiful, gives me a feeling I can’t explain. Thank you 🙏
This piece is beyond words, what a beautiful arrangement, impressive work once again! ❤️
Increíble
Gives me Cry of Fear vibes
10 times I listen, it's divine, you are the best !!! thank you for such a composition :)
Thank you for each and every listen :)
Please make this an hour long
Great music as always, you catched the feel of alienation of SH4.
You know, i think this could fit good even on Leon.
Fantastic 👍
Oh how i miss those days...not a care in the world, just work to Buy games and booze and hang out with the buddies. How far are those days now...
Did the buddies stay at least?
@@SurvivalSpheres yes, but I live in another city now...
@@emswonkenoon9104 Still, good for you! Not everyone is lucky enough to keep old friends.
@@SurvivalSpheres totally agree , met them since i was 14. now i'm 45 and they are around .looking forward to see them in August for my birthday
This is the best sound I've ever heard

Wooooooo
A beautiful masterpiece ❤
Thanks
Glad you like it.
🤩🎧🎵🤗 "my special place" - my Silent hill 😍🥲😃
Vídeo e música ficaram top.
Excelente trabajo,lograste muy bien la sensación.
Ya que Silent hill,genera terror pero es hermoso a su manera.
This is remarkable.
this is beautiful
Thanks bud
Keep at it!👏👏
You are doing important work. You contribute by calming people's nerves with your music, and I testify for that. Thank you so much. Stress... it does so bad to people.. It really does. It causes physical and mental pain, and makes the mind more and more unhealthy. I also testify for that, about myself.
Wish you luck and success for the betterment of people's mental health worldwide; I am also an example for such people.
Big thanks for your comment and for your acknowledgement. Also, congratulations on your self awareness. I'm also one of these people. Without the power of music, my life would look different, I'm sure.

Cette vue... Spectateur de ces vies qui déambulent. Ils déambulent sans but précis, ou peut-être pas. En tout cas, la vie que nous avons là, est bloquée, enfermée à double tour... Très bon choix de plan! Silent Hill 4 reste mémorable, un jeu d'une telle froideur, d'une telle souffrance... elle reste avec SH 2, les meilleurs de la saga ! Les deux jeux les plus mélancoliques, les plus tristes mais de cette tristesse il s'en dégage de la beauté, d'une pureté ! T'as musique est égale aux jeux Silent Hill. Belle découverte du jour !
Je le vois exactement de la même manière. Merci!
sometimes I come back to this track. I think sounds like this have something to do with the true essence of life.
Akira Yamaoka would be proud 👏amazing work!
Very goooooood😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Before reading the description I really thought it was an official HS song. what a magnificent job! My favorite melody of the song is from 1:30 to 1:40 as it is extremely sad and beautiful.
I had my share of fun in 4 by looking outside the windows and holes and... While it does play differently than the previous titles, it does have its charm.
"59 Back to Daily", the theme that you composed for me and this one tickle my fancy in similar ways. I can certainly say so after listening to this for 30 minutes in a row. Nicely done!
Yes, the concept with the apartment is what moved 4 away from its predecessors. On the other hand, that was the aspect that intrigued me the most.
That being said: You draw an interesting musical parallel between those three songs. 'Back to Daily' and D's theme were definitely created in a row, but here the approach and setup were completely different. The fact that a red line seems discernible nevertheless pleases me, of course.
@@SurvivalSpheres I AGREE!!!

Super eyepatch wolf sent me to check this
and it's much better than he described it
Welcome on board!
Cool
wow
I could see this working in the canceled "Hallucination" version of Resident Evil 4. I think it would suit it well.
I made a theoretical score for that game. Check my upload "RE 3.5 Code Madman - Soundtrack Preview Compilation No. 1" if you're interested.
Obscuro e pacífico ao mesmo tempo. Um som bastante apropriado para o cenário desolador de Silent Hill.
Me complacieron tus palabras, gracias.
Even though I've never really cared for Silent Hill I do like this soundtrack.
damn this is heavy
I became your fan since yesterday. Peace.
Welcome inside the save room!
This reminds me of Painkiller ambient, very good.
Akira Yamaoka should hire you for the new Silent Hill Games. You are a marvellous composer
I feel like watching people drive their cars to get to their job
Watching everything go by, as i question the purpose of my life
Too relatable.
Okay next time, the background needs to be Eileen being viewed from the peep hole!
I've used that scenery before, but there was no Eileen on the other side. Listen to my song "Not Alone?"
@@SurvivalSpheres coool
i thought the traffic would just be a loop but i think they actually randomized it.
I caught myself staring at it for far too long as well...
I used to sit and watch this cause i had no view from my own window.
This one is quite a bit chilling. Good job at controlling the instruments like a slash of feelings - I rarely feel intimidated by music like this.
Thanks for your comment.
@@SurvivalSpheres I didnt expect this track to suddenly come to my head. Seems like i really took a liking to this track. The atmosphere is outstanding and it would not make for silent hill in my opinion but as great as it is it should be used for a game worthy of it.
this theme is so cool, i feel how my life is over and i dont can do nothing
I really liked Silent Hill 4. Walter was such a tragic dude :(
This is beautiful. You are extremely talented.. I keep thinking I'm in Bugenhagen's observatory from FFVII during some parts. Not the Remake tragedy, the original classic.
Bahamut_Zero-obtained^^ PS: Of course you mean the classic, as Remake was Midgar only. Maybe they will make up for it with true and worthy sequels... I won't give up hope.
@@SurvivalSpheres Oh, yes. I'd forgotten about that silly stunt. You're right. But you get my point. xD And yes, I agree with you. I hope they will, too. But without the original team, that is practically impossible. ):
@@ClassicLaraCroft I honestly disliked that new twist with those dull 'ghosts of fate', but the world itself looked just too gorgeous and the characters, our good old friends, were likeable.
@@SurvivalSpheres I have no idea what that abomination was, but it was an entirely disrespectful tribute to the legendary FFVII from 1997 on PS1. Gorgeous graphics, yes. But to add new story? New characters? New enemies? Gah. Call me a fangirl, but I can't consider FFVII Remake anything related to FFVII. They are just two completely different games for me. And they should be kept apart in their own categories. However, I, like you, hope for better sequels more true to the original classic FFVII. But once again, without the original team, it won't and can't happen. Sad fact of gaming is the evolution of gaming. For as with everything else in life, so, too, does the gaming industry change and evolve. Sometimes, said evolution is not a positive thing.....
Bah.
LOL! Sorry to be discussing a totally different game from that of the one you made this beautiful song on this video. But I MUST thank you for the conversation as you are the only and first person I have encountered who is not drooling and cheering on FFVII Remake. Thank you for your point of view and honesty. It was most refreshing. :) Hope to see more of your musical creations!!!!
@@ClassicLaraCroft Oh, that's no problem at all! I enjoy it and am always amazed how the conversations come to other topics, and ones which had also captivated me before.
As for the evolution of all things, yes, that is probably the most unified story of human existence. Bob Dylan knew it ("Times They Are A Changing") and also we experience it if we stay locked in earlier times. In my opinion, there's nothing wrong with some bitter-sweet nostalgia in reasoable doses, as long as it doesn't become too much of a weight. After all, the flow of time points us to the only direction: forward.
PS: Please forgive the long delay of my reply. I hope I made it before our exchange takes on a nostalgic flavor ;)
Walter, i feel you all too well...
*So a Resident Evil 4 VR was announced.*
*That's gonna end so bad. . .*
*The way the game works it was just not made to be compatible.*
I never got past the water dungeon in this game. I need to go back and try again.
Water Dungeon was heavy, especially when the game forced you to visit it a second time. I do not plan to go there again.
❤️❤️❤️
You kinda freaked me out dude. I remember you went by the name ‘Resident Evil Save Room Music’ or something to that effect and I couldn’t find you, but luckily I saw your profile pic and remembered that was the one from your old account. It’s great that you still do your own unique tracks. Take care and all the best! 👍
I remember you well! Yes, I detached my brand name from the franchise a while ago, it had to do with my expansion to the streaming platforms, among other things. I kept the iconic picture of Jill though, so old friends like you could find me again more easily :)
😉👍
I love the sH ambience why I feel it looks like my vision
Maybe I am reserved
No friends to share my feeling
Feel cold

considero este silent hill uno de los mas brutales me afecto mucho psicológicamente
Agreed. It was a threatening experience, especially when your only safe place started to turn nightmarish.
♥️
Amazing As Always But I Still Prefer Your Old Channel Name, Greetings Friend
Haha, I fully understand you :)
Wouldn't sound out of place in a S.T.A.L.K.E.R game really
Love this. Beautiful darkly enchanting atmosphere. To me this feels a little more original than a straight Silent Hill track, which is great. When you say inspired, how different is it from the sources of inspiration compositionally? Are you using the same chords or chord progressions, etc, or are you going completely just from the mood and feeling and so on?
Thank you for your message! Mostly, and for this track as well, your second guess is right. I don't use specific instruments, melodies, or other compositional features from actual SH tracks, but try to recreate a similar atmosphere. That being said, at times, this certain musical trademark style consisting of short, multi-tonal 'pulsing' pad sequences appears. And that was definitely invented by Akira Yamaoka, at least I haven't heard it before.
@@SurvivalSpheres you're doing well! i love how you use silent hill as a base to expand from, rather than a template - so many artists fall into that format, forgetting it's their originality that makes their work shine.
@@we-must-live That's a very keen point of view.
good vibe to reflect silently while driking or smoking a cig/liting a joint, remembering the old times... or programming alone at night, at peace.

Wow nice community
I mean : I love Sillent Hill 4, it's the best part of the series for me. But one thing I still don't understand is : why was Henry locked inside his apartment ? Was it Joseph Schreiber who didn't want Henry to go outside and get killed by Walter or what was the reason why his door was chained ?
There are several things I never really understood about this game. The locked door is one of them, the background of the 21 sacraments is another one. Why 21? According to whose rules? Universal law or what? Why did Joseph appear out of the ceiling? Why did Walter's victims become hostile? How did he chose them? On the other hand, these open ends add to the obscurity of a fascinating, hauting background story.
''Don't go Out'' sign Walter.
@@SurvivalSpheres you're right 🤙🏽
@@RNvideosedits yeah
I don't know why, but this almost has a C&C Tiberium Sun vibe to it in places. Good track all the same though.
Tiberium Sun eh? Had some good music, "Airstrike" being one of my favourites.
reminds me of the wayward souls soundtrack
Unknown to me. Could you recommend a specific track?
@@SurvivalSpheres I find it similar to "Paladin's Redemption" in a way
@@coralanturn Thanks, will take a listen.
I just liked about 50 comments on here !
Haha, tough work!
