I'm calling this genre Petricore and there's nothing you can do about it
People having been calling the RoR OST its own genera for years now,
this is just too fitting.
that's absolutely golden!
nah its proc rock
Petricore V
@@572089 yea no when i hear those windchimes in ror songs im like yea, this is definitely rorcore
remember: game-breaking bugs and rushed development is temporary, but Chris going absolutely stupid crazy on his soundtracks is eternal
And he was ALSO rushed lol
@@khedudcemquazar2278 Aw man, how dare they do our Chris like that :( He deserves to be treated right.
@@tendrl you're saying overworking employees is moral if they still do a good job??? sry lol just seemed like a crazy take
@@tendrl Cool, let's call your boss and tell them you should have no days off, work 18 hour days and need to do the work for 3 of your coworkers and your boss while they go to Tahiti for a month.
That's fine as long as the work is done and done well right?
That'd be fair to you?
No? Exactly the point being made.
THINK
Chris going hard has always been the backbone of risk of rain. All goes back to coalescence
I just heard this a few hours ago for the first time in game, I couldn't even focus on playing it slapped so hard. I was literally saying out loud "CHRIS! CHRIS IT'S NOT THAT SERIOUS BRO! CALM DOWN JESUS CHRIST!". Unreal track.
this was literally my exact reaction lmao
Om Mani Padme Hum part II, the long awaited sequel to Om Mani Padme Hum part I
ah yes, the long time of about a week?
@@Janski14that's a pretty long time
@@IDTT137 fair
I would wait years for this masterpiece
@@MajorProblems5 no way it's the shopkeeper
Chris+Jazz fusion is exactly what I needed

this is gotta be my favorite, i was in game with my friend and it started by
"dang i like this song"
"WOW this song is amazing"
"IT KEEPS GOING"
"OH MY FUCKING GOD"
you're a mad man chris
I stank faced into oblivion. This is so disgustingly good, beautiful transitions and the solos were so delicious. Also the Surface Tension motif??? Chris you are such an inspiration!!!
Daaamnnn...the Surface Tension motif goes SO hard!! 👀🔥👌
As a massive prog geek myself, I very much appreciate the use of weird time signatures like 13/8 and 7/4. This is a masterpiece.
Its so cooooool, I love the little interjections of the 13/8 (ive been thinking of it as a 7/8 + 6/8 but same thing) during the 7/4 parts
@@SilverWolf340you could also divide into 4/4 and 5/8
@@DeadlyFource true true
i’m glad there’s a part two, the suspense was killing me
And a part III
Wait until he finds out guys…
I love when Chris does something unexpected, which is almost always with his unique tracks, but man what is this jazz-fusion keyboard solo bit, I don't see something this different since the crazy saxophone part from The Face of the Deep, what a time to be alive
I really love how different this one is. It makes me really happy to know that despite having to make music for the same series for over 10 years under such time crunch, you still manage to do new and cool things I never would have expected with your music.
1:57 YES YES YESSS
YYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSS 🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤯🤯🤯
YES! YES! YES! YES! YES!
I'm gonna keep listening to your music until I die which will hopefully never happen, this rocks so hard
I could really use a bunch of immortals to guarantee some basic income for my children :)
a Dio's would be useful
@@tedmarcak287if you get a friend group and you all play as seeker then you are basically immortal.
Getting to hear all 3 parts as one song is going to be great as one of those people who listens to songs averaging 10 minutes in length. This is like Liquid Tension Experiment 4 for free!
Just for clarity's sake, the three parts are not one piece of music, which is exactly why they are spread over three parts and not put in sequence in the album. Not that you can't listen to them however you like of course :)
@@AstronautDown Right on then :)
There's gonna be a part three?????😲😲
@@AstronautDown A trinity of incongruent parts, sharing similarities, but not meant to be one whole.
Much like the False Son, aye?
@@hyperinvox9129 holy shit
just preordered the album on bandcamp, this might be AOTY for me imo, love all the prog and dream theater influences in your songs
Thanks for supporting the music!
@@AstronautDown ur the goat 🐐
Damn, that Chris Christodoulou doesn’t lie, those George Karayiannis solos really do be shredding
its crazy how with each subsequent song release the stankier my face gets. love the music chris, preordered the vinyl (in addition to buying all the reprints that i missed)
Thanks for the support, hope you enjoy them!
my friends can read it in my face whenever I listen to this soundtrack due to the unmistakable stank in my face :D
I have a friend who doesn't like Risk of Rain, but I showed him the music and now he's a huge fan of your works just because of how legendary of a composer you are. You make some of the best VGM I've ever heard
Jazz and surface tension motif on the new song? YESSIR!
From 2:20 until the end brought tears to my eyes with how much I loved it.
Agreed %100
Chris doesn’t miss!!! 🔥🔥🔥🗣️🗣️🗣️
(In all seriousness, this goes hard. I love all the callbacks and I will be buying the vinyl as soon as I get paid)
No hate but don't spend your only money on a vinyl? 😭
@@ZombeyDragon we need circuses to go with the bread fam
WHAT IN THE SURFACE TENSION 7/8 HEAVY HITTING ELECTRIC GUITAR EMOTIONAL CLIMAX WAS THAT LAST THIRD OF THE SONG EXCUSE ME
shouting panic aside, oh my *god* this is probably one of my favorite, and i keep saying that for just about every song in the album, even all the way back to ISBTMAS. but something about hearing my favorite song from risk of rain 1 (aside from coalescence) being brought back in such a more intense feeling song emotionally is just incredible. jaw-dropping work as always, man. you killed it. i will now proceed to loop that last third or so of the song for the next hour-
Danm Chris, being real honest you gotta be on the top 3 most competents musicians in the game industry right now, truly amazing how every single track is consistently amazing and full of personality.
Do you actually have a top 3? I think it'd be something like Lena Raine, Austin Wintory, and Chris Christodoulou, in no particular order. Just like a bit of a balanced holy Trinity honestly, they each do/represent different ends of the spectrum I think
my wife is giving birth on the 19th, SKIPPED! sorry honey I gotta listen to the new risk of rain 2 ost drop
I wish her the best! If you're a new dad say goodbye to sleep, enjoyment and life in general :)
Damn it Chris’s I have to go change clothes now
the song of life is gonna go hard
Man, this is incredible. I love how naturally you can make this transition from soft music to rock. Thanks as always. The last part is godly
This is one of the best musical rollercoasters I've listened to in a long time.
You cooked a feast right here Chris.
The second half of this song made me ascend, which I don't think I've ever said
Sir... I'm speechless. Was playing with 3 buddies and we ended up on the map where this plays. We we're busy as all hell (monsoon and no joke, kids). Then the solo hit. The 2:53 part... you know the one. We were, all four of us, stunned.
It gives me the shivers. Makes me stop what I'm doing, close my eyes and pray to imaginary rains. I just. Wow. Thank you, I guess is what I'm saying. Just thanks for that.
Oh yeah, we died shortly after.
Where does it play ingame, out of curiosity? (dw about spoilers)
@@atlas16198 I can't remember the name of the stage rn, but it's one of the ones on the path of the titan that is made up of floating platforms with tree branches or maybe vines connecting them all up
Edit: it's called Treeborn Colony
Yeah that's the one!
Had to look it up haha.
Don't know what's going on right now but its a tough level.
The music mixed with the difficulty makes for a hype-as-hell level.
@@pierre-andredion5977 yeah it's sooo good! Every time I get to that stage with my friend, I always freak out about the guitar part
yesterday my mom walked in on me playing on the living room xbob and she was like "dayum son you rockin out right now"
THIS IS PEAK CHRIS CHRISTODOLOU!
I am excited for your youtube commetary on this DLC album! Maybe two commentaries!!
imagine we get three like for some reason he just adds another one each time
@@crangejo Ten albums later and hes just running out of things to say
please for the love of god never stop making music, this is fucking insane i legit was struggling to keep up i just wanted to enjoy this, its so good
My jaw fucking DROPPED when I heard this in game.
Chris you continue to be one of my idols for arranging such complex, engaging masterpieces.
Needless to say, ill be listening to this along side the rest of ny ror2 playlist.
Everyone is freaking out about that guitar solo (rightly so) but oh my GOD, that Rhodes solo was incredible, I died the first time I hit this stage because I was caught listening to you absolutely tear those keys apart.
Incredible work as always, please release a jazz trio album and my life is yours
I'm really glad you like it because it's one of my favourite moments on the album! It's not me playing though, it's actually my brother Costis, who is a great jazz pianist.
goddammit that gotta be one of my all time favorites from now on. That placid island of ignorance theme with surface tension and insane groove transitioning into goofy jazz is something else man. And also harmony in power part later literally blew me away, absolute greatness. However I for some reason feel like this one fits better to be the first part rather then second, probably because the first one you released is quite heavy and somewhat darker, idk. Either way splendid work my man, really waiting for other tracks
Surface Tension is in my top 3 of the songs you did for RoR. I'm so glad to hear it here!
You literally do not know how this song made me feel in the Treeborn Colony. I literally stood and just closed my eyes for a minute. Never change Chris. You are the MAN
Thank you for bringing back the tension theme!
I love your music. Please don't die on October 29th when your lawnmower has a malfunction and explodes
This sounds like a self fulfilling prophecy... I don't own a lawnmower but I'll feel the need to buy one just to make sure I can control fate by not turning it on on the day. Of course what I won't know is that the accident actually happens on the 28th, but it takes me 24 hours of agonising pain in the hospital to die.
Thanks for nothing...
You really never miss a beat, do you Chris? Hearing from 1:58 onwards my jaw DROPPED. It certainly wasn’t something I was expecting but I’m all for it. You’re music is wondrous, and please, never stop making it.
I absolutely love the surface tension and placid island of ignorance motifs! Btw Chris, your songs have gotten me through some very hard times in life. Depression is not easy to overcome. Thanks for the music and keep making more ❤
genuinely unreal that while I’m killing lizards, opening chests and generally doing nothing too intresting
Chris is shredding his SOUL out on the guitar like it’s the most important moment of my life, every single track just has so much intensity it makes you feel badass just PRINTING THINGS.
The Dream Theater esque feelings this gave me are crazy, and I wouldn't even say I overly listen to em, but the change of seasons almost deja vu I got while listening before slamming straight back into the classic sounds underpinned by the remaining kinda funky strangeness... One of a kind, yet another banger.
The crescendo on this rips so hard, makes the stage 1000% better, and the stage was already great.
The Jazz section is absolutely incredible. Like nothing I’ve ever heard before from your music. It’s lovely
“Oh boy! I can’t wait to kill this loader!”
The unmatched power of a >60 fps fist (god why did gearbox have to fuck up the physics like that)
Gym playlist is gonna go crazy rn.
1:55 insert dr strange touching the butterfly gif
At this point I'm more excited for the release of the soundtrack than the DLC itself
I love how the song gets intense immediately after you hear the sticky keys toggle
Panic mode engaged
Nah the composition of this one is insane. First with the funky sexy part and then with the awesome badass solo and riff. Much love from Argentina, you are an incredible artist Chris
i cant wait to om mani AND padme hum, in 3 parts!
i cant even put into words how much i love this
ohhhhh my god... I dont even know where to start. All i know is that i need more of this. No idea how to find it, if more of this kind of thing even exists. But oh man, this was beautiful
There's plenty of music like this around. You can search for jazz fusion, or prog rock, or anything in between. There are a lot of bands and artists going all the way back to the early 70s.
I will suggest a less known band/album by a band called Karmakanic, titled "Who's the Boss in the Factory?".
@@AstronautDownthank you so much for the recommendation Chris!
I remember hearing that rhodes solo on your instagram story awhile back and being so confused. Now it all makes sense!
Chris, you've outdone yourself with this one. the entire second half this track is two straight minutes of nonstop FIRE
A placid island of ignorance and surface tension motifs along with an epic Rhodes and guitar solo, peak indeed!
Absolutely incredible guitar portion
Oṃ Maṇi Padme Hūṃ, part II: electric boogaloo
*electric ukulele
*electric piano
this one was once again, fuckin amazing... not that ive listened to it yet, i just know Chris is incapable of making something that could even remotely be considered bad.
Keeping Chris on for the RoR music was really just the first check for whether it was in good hands when it passed over to gearbox. I think I speak for everyone in saying I'm glad they passed.
still feeling that?
I love the callback to surface tension so so much, always excited to hear this track it’s probably my favorite one :)
I love those pixel sounds at the beginning and the end of the solo
absolute banger already calling it
also congrats on 70k subscribers

i just realized the entire ost released on august 23rd, so it was truly the best birthday present i could've wished for. thanks chris.
Going hard with the Placid Island of Ignorance motif, and I'm always here for it
When I heard this in game it blew my mind. I love your drum beats, they are so intricate and insane. This whole album is fantastic
love the 6/8 7/8 stuff, what a banger
Even if Seekers of the Storm turns out to flop, I'm still going to buy it just to hear these bangers in game .
Highly doubt it’ll be a flop
@@Flicknutsthere’s some good evidence that it’s been heavily rushed and if it doesn’t do well there’s a good chance take two will end development for ror2
@@Flicknutswell well well look who’s talking now
@@sand_undertable my bad guys it flopped
this just goes further to prove that jazz and metal rock go incredibly well together
This has been thoroughly stuck in my head since you released those 2 teasers on your Instagram Chris and now I can say for sure it’s my absolute favourite ror2 song to date
Your band mates must mean a whole hell of a lot to you to make such a banger track with them in mind. Can't wait for the album commentary :)
This album is outstanding. My ears have been blessed. Keep up the good work chris, every single piece of music youve made is amazing.
that part in the final is just INCREDIBLE! I love how the percussion and the guitar gives the vibe of grandeur that's just incredible.
The motif from Surface Tension hits like a truck... this is just incredible
that acid jazz breakdown was fire
I just want to tell you that you are a great motivation for me. I'm from Argentina and my dream is to be able to create soundtracks for video games. You are amazing Chris
Thanks Chris for the timing of the osts, they’re for sure gonna get me through this school year.
edit: I also didn’t know someone could shred on a piano
My favourite stage, one of my favourite tracks. Feels a lot more jazz than the rest.. until the solo hits. George Karayiannis did a great job
There's no need to seek storm with this THUNDER of song playing
there it is the natural funky time break such is always necessary for music that goes too hard for the human consciousness to comprehend
You've really outdone yourself with this damn sick guitar solo.
Hope you're doing fine after working so hard in each of these tracks, they really are breath-taking, so take a breath, king.
edit: just noticed the solo wasn't by you but either way the composition is peak.
I close my eyes... I listen to this... no words describe the emotion, chills felt. This Drop puts the rain in risk of rain.
This gives me such a frame by frame -King crimson vibe I fucking love it
While hearing the new tracks for the first time playing multiplayer, I'd mention to my friends "yo the music's so good tho???" When I got to this stage, I said it three times within the span of one minute, probably somewhere around 1:35, because IT JUST KEEPS GOING HARDER!!
CHRIS THIS IS JUST A REGULAR STAGE THEME, YOU DID NOT HAVE TO GO *THIS* HARD! 2:53 YOU COOKED SO HARD!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!
Highlight of the DLC was certainly hearing this for the first time while playing on that awesome third stage.
This album is immaculate… so many leitmotifs and melodies coming and clashing together to create this masterpiece.. chris.. you really have outdone yourself
I remember this dude saying something along the lines of "yeah I will be making the seekers of the storm soundtrack and I have a 7 string", brother, this has got to be at least 12 strings
I haven't heard such masterpieces since con lentitud poderosa, damn...
Oh my lord the grooves are out of this world with this one
The solos are so good, the 3 min mark made my brain explode. I feel like the music of these games could be their own genre! thanks for the good music!!!!
omg this song, I waited to hear it in-game and I genuinely screamed when it started playing
That funky solo in the middle always catches me off guard.
Dude this is the hardest and most well played out. That jazzy jam a quarter through, holy hell man! Before that the RoR1 motif with the soundfont of that game.
Halfway through you just keep building up to the end and its banging as fuck man! Thank you.
The look on my face when I first heard this a few days ago... The guitar solo by George, the piano solo by Costis, and your amazing composition had my jaw on the FLOOR. Utterly amazing.
