Writing Music in the Style of Kevin Penkin's Tower of God OST (Original)
Vložit
- čas přidán 12. 09. 2024
- Original compositions inpired by Kevin Penkin's Tower of God OST and Made in Abyss OST. (This are both rough sketches / not final versions)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The First track (UTOPIA) is a trailer comission for a very interesting project that goes by the name of ALYUMIA. It involves a webtoon story and a videogame that is currently in development. You can read more on it here! www.alyumia.com/
⚠️Only the person who ordered this track is allowed to use it. ⚠️
This track is heavily inspired in the Tower of God OST until the climax bit. Then it's a hybrid between ToG and my usual style.
(This is not be the final version/ mix)
On the other hand the second track (blank: dosen't have a name yet) is a short sketch I wrote for fun after listening to Kevin Penkin's Made in Abyss OST for 2 weeks straight on repeat. A lot of you have been recomending me this one and I gotta say I fell in love with this OST. It has become one of my favorite soundtracks ever.
This track dosen't have a name yet. Any ideas? Also I decided to stop the track there abruptly because I was running out of time. Let me know in the comments below if you'd like me to continue and make a full version.
Anyways, gonna keep the description short this time. Thanks a lot for watching as always, comment below what you want to see next and have an awesome day!

Song: UTOPIA (original)
Blank (Original)
Anime: None
Composer: Max Shirshov / Max AnimePianist
"Should I continue it?" (bottom right at 3:20) Yes PLEASE
Awesome, will do :D
Thank you!
@@MaxShirshovMusic you are awesome
@@MaxShirshovMusic You are awesome man!👍
I have read all of ToG with "Shinsu" and "Tower" as my background music , this style fits ToG immensely , keep up the incredible work !
So happy to hear those videos were useful! Thank you and I will :)
same, specially "Shinsu"!
utopia is for sure the hidden floor theme
Andrew Newman nah utopia is full of “nUH NAHH NUH nAA” while the hidden floor is more relaxed
@@quagroll9096 The hidden floor isn't really relaxed, I was thinking maybe a really calm piece that suddenly changes into Boss Music announcing Bam's arrival.
I became a high ranker while listening to this music
oooh you gotta absolutely tell us when you become a composer for a movie!
haha I wish. But thank you, really means a lot :)
Bet. I'm making a movie. I'll hire him ;)
It's called False Perfections, I already have a full season out of it right now. Next is the movie scheduled for next year!
I feel like this is the perfect music for the part when
* WEBTOON SPOILER ALERT*
Bam realises his potential whilst fighting Data Jahad
I think there are a number of instances where it would be great, thats def one of them. Perhaps when he's trying to figure out the technique for moving the battleship scene as well
Or when he’s meeting his inner self
Nah fam, that buildup, then the drop
This is perfect for when he was fighting kaiser and was slowly adapting in a losing battle then he decided to catch one of the invisible blades
*SPOILER*
End of Season 2. Bam escapes Kallavan and Evankhell wants to choose him as her student!
When bam uses The Thorn
Okay yes this is what I will be listening from here on everyone else can stop making music 👍
hahaha thanks.I'll try to mix them better and upload better sounding full versions!
🤣🤣🤣Me too!!
Everyone else but Kevin Penkin.
Both songs are honestly really good, but I'd REALLY love to hear more ToG-esque music from you. It's a really unique style that I've barely ever heard (if anyone knows anything similar, please hit me up). And the way you and Kevin Penkin use that choir is just pure perfection. I'll happily listen to anything you make, but more ToG vibes would be sick.
Awesome! Thanks for letting me know ^^
Made in abyss soundtrack
Mob Psycho soundtrack gives me similar vibes sometimes
pretty much all of kevin penkins works
Holy shit utopia is freakin' awesome but i just loved how blank feels
Thanks man! When I find the time I'll try to make a full ver of blank ))
As the person addicted to osts like me (in especific kevin penkin's work, to good of a thing to exist) you're doing an amazing job, continue please
Yeah, responding response coments late 'cause i can. K, you live in another day, tchau
I have a feeling that "Journey" describes the second the best.
Ohh I like it! That's actually a very good option 👍
Who is the punk that put the dislike? Maybe a rachel fan...
It's gotta be... lol
@@MaxShirshovMusic they are more now :'v
Psd I love your Work, I hope I write it well im from peru XD
Is that supposed to be a compliment?
@Glorious Morning of Nostalgia i've heard once Siu (auther of TOG) likes rachel.
But ofcourse best girl of the story is RAK
That damn brat
Made my regular friend hear this
Now he is a *High Ranker*
Utopia feels like I'm going on an epic adventure to climb the tower
Blank feels like discovering a whole new world
Was WONDERING when you were going to post another video!
I wouldn’t be mad if real Jahad’s appearance in the hidden floor or White exiting the train at the last station got a theme like Utopia, great work!
Hey, I was about to ask you to do tutorials for this kind of stuff, but I saw you said you wanted the channel to grow a bit first and then.
I'm here to say, I'll be gladly waiting for that day one those tutorials come out.
Btw. New subscriber
Thanks so much for your patience. Hopefully I'm able to start making them soon ;)
Why does this feel like you are secretly the composer for ToG? This sounds like something that would ACTUALLY be in the show XD
Great stuff man, hopefully I can get something for my series too :)
man you really got the tower of god vibe, i can definitely see these being on season two
I am absolutely in love with UTOPIA, a longer version would be so good!
Thanks for listening! For now I'm just going to upload a final better sounding version of this, but later I'll see if I can come up with a cool way to continue it :)
@@MaxShirshovMusic Any luck on that continuation?
I found your channel through the ToG medleys and I have to say, I absolutely love your work!! I too hope to one day be able to create music as good as this. Thanks for making these💖
Thank you for watching! For sure you will, just keep doing a little everyday and it will amount to something big someday. That's my strategy at least. So good luck!
Just listened this while reading the end of the Workshop battle in TOG. It was perfect
Man...If you only knew how I'm so inloved with your TOG works 😭 Utopia hits hard when you think about S3 Bam finally releasing and firing the arrow in the Cage so save everyone in it.
TIPS: You can add more to your remixes if you try looking for some bulgarian choirs. I heard that's where Kevin Penkin got the inspiration for ToG OST.
Thank you! Hopefully s3 can resume soon :)
I here utopia more when Baam finally uses his power against data Jahad and coming to realization within himself
Amazing work, both tracks are fantastic. The second one "Blank" was my favorite. Please continue the great work. Hopefully you can make the full versions for both of these tracks, I would love to hear them. Also it seems like we have the same taste. Those Made in Abyss OSTs are truly masterful by Kevin Penkin. You definitely need to listen to the new Made in Abyss movie's soundtrack from Kevin if you haven't already. Its amazing, like usual.
Thanks for all the comments as always! I do read all of them and I'll try to reply to as many as I can!
This tracks are technically still works in progress so I might end up uploading separate final versions in the future.

Yo, thank you for this blessing. Ima be jamming out to this for a while lol.
Lol I wish. But making and ost for an anime would actually be a dream come true
I think it would be an awesome video if you put together your utopía and the first part of ur shinsu video.
@@MaxShirshovMusic hope your dreams come true my guy.
Bro can you make an extended version of the first half...the TOG ost one...please man
Bruh
This hits differently when I draw and read tower of god
This and others are absolute perfection 👌👌👌
A+ in my opinion for Utopia! personally I would’ve liked the opening chorus to sound more like a possible language being chanted but we can’t have everything given to us lol
Yeah you’re probably right. I’ll change that in the final version 👍🏻
DUDE OMG THIS IS SO CRAZY, im be grateful still alive to hear your work !! Thank You !
GREAT UTOPIA !
Thanks so much, It means a lot ;)
Both tracks were amazing. Also I think something like "New day" or "Over the Horizon" would be a fitting name
New day.. I like that one! This will be a hard choice, you guys are coming up with way better titles than the ones I had in mind 😅
both amazing in their own way, you took the influence from both the OSTs and added your own spin to it, and it ended up sounding amazing. Waiting for the full versions :D
Thanks! I'm glad to hear that :)
Amazing work!! I love two songs! Please make a full version of Blank song!
Thanks so much! Would love to actually :)
I got chills when i realised it wasn't Kevin Penkin's doings.. Sir I hope your musics take you anywhere you want to, you deserve all the glory you wish !
Thank you, it means a lot!
@@MaxShirshovMusicdid writing these pieces help you get jobs in the industry?
Update : It's been 3 years and I still havent found a more intense beginning like this song have
This was really intense, I want to hear more of this. I also hope you also listened the OST for the Movie of Made in Abyss. It's so good! As good as the OST for the TV series.
I actually haven’t! Will gladly give it a listen tomorrow, thanks for letting me know ^^
I'd love to listen to the full version of Utopia! I hope you'll release the full version soon :)
Oh my god. I was contemplating watching ToG but unsure, but if the music is similar to this masterpiece, I need to give it a watch. Btw I love Blank as you matched the Made in Abyss elements so so well. Bravo to both.
Thank you! I’m glad to hear that from people who are familiar with made in abyss. Yeah give ToG a go, the music is very dope and it’s a good introduction to the webtoon story (it covers like 3% though 😅)
Utopia is an amazing song, the beginning especially is extremely spectacular. I love the choir you used, and I feel the inspiration you got from Kevin Penkin. I hope you release more, you seriously make such beautiful music. I hope you really do continue make more music.
Thanks so much! I will try my best to improve and to keep making more and better music ))
This one just gave me chills! Nice work!
I really enjoy the TOG inspired music, please continue
I like it, continue working, you're good at making ost
Thank you! I will ))
First one was seriously awesome you really nailed it
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed
i wish i could like this 1000 times - this fits kevin penkins ToG style perfectly. Outstanding work
It's beautiful, please continue it
Yess I finally found this video again. Absolutely love this
I'm going to have these tracks playing while I'm reading the Tower of God webtoon, whenever it comeback.
I am in love with these two tracks, they are amazing! Utopia really captures the Tog vibe and blank is so beautiful. I am looking forward to the finished versions ✌️. On a side note, I initially found these songs on another channel named Albeda Arie before yours and just wanted you to know, if they had your permission in reposting it cause the comments were turned off.
Thank you! And yeah I’m aware. This guy re uploads everything that is ToG related in any way. Nothing I can do about that I guess. But hey at least he gave credit in the description this time 🤷🏻♂️
@@MaxShirshovMusic Oh then its ok if you are fine with it ✌️
DAMN BRO this is amazing well done! Idk which i like more out of the two
Update: blank is my favourite i want the whole thing!!!
@@pharozen Thanks bro, I'll try to finish it!
I have listened to this maybe over a hundred times already while reading ToG, just epic
Holy heck this is beautiful you're insane :0000000
Thanks haha :)
I love both tracks, but that second one sounds so good. It's happy, wholesome, adventurous, calm, just beautiful.
I bet the anime it's based off of it gonna make you think twice
Wow! Keep up the work man. You could be the next greatest composer and I'm glad I found this channel before you blow up!
Dayum thank you. It means a lot n.n
this sounds so majestic !!!!! i LOVE it
Thank you!
@@MaxShirshovMusic 😁😉
i really liked the atmosphere in the first part, some how Epic and yet not to dark and grimm, you found a good balance there :D
Thank you n.n
Goosebumps from the get-go. I loved your Tower of God mixes, and I hope you do more of your own spin on Penkin's motifs.
Thanks so much! I will do my best
Holy shit this gave me goosebumps from the very beginning
I wish this was on my recomendations earlier. This is so good to be true, keep it up I love what you're working on!
Thank you! I'll make more :)
You must've been working really hard on these. Awesome job! :D
I especially like the second piece. As for its name, for some reason "Renewal" and "Awakening" popped into my head but maybe they sound too generic... Just throwing ideas out there
Hey there, Long time no see! Thanks, I’ll keep that one in mind. I think Awakening sounds pretty fitting and someone else suggested “journey” too which could work. I should ask more often because this titles are way better than the ones I had in mind 😅
@@MaxShirshovMusic Yesss, long time no see! I hope you're doing well! And yeah, you come up with the music, we come up with the names haha
Damn dude you are talented. Please more of this!
Thanks man. I’ll gladly make more ))
Please continue it!! Amazing job, thank you!
Thank you for watching! :)
what a masterpiece
This is dope bro ! Keep up the good work pleaseeeee
This is absolutely beautiful ;-;
Yeah! I'm waiting for the release of the official soundtrack and in the meantime i love to hear things like this, you're really talented!
Thanks! Yeah hopefully they release it soon, it's been forever. Can't wait to listen to all the hidden tracks that didn't make it into the anime
@@MaxShirshovMusic yeah, imagine those, i hope they realease it soon!
I really hope you complete both of those, i especially liked the first one. great work!
Thanks so much! I’ll probably upload a final and better sounding first track and a full version of the second one 👍🏻
This is awesome!
This song is strangely.... nostalgic? Like not in the sense that I heard it before but it just reawakened that childlike wonder somehow. Traversing large worlds, going on many adventures. It brings that vibe in really well. Cant wait for you to make another. You're the one youtuber I actually put notification on for lol
aww thanks so much! I'll do my best to write more and better stuff 👍
AMAZING!
The OST for this anime is literally a godsend. It fits the theme and the intensity of this series so well and I would absolutely LOVE IT for these OSTs to kick in in future scenes!!! (especially Utopia)
Thank you!!
Loved it, I will subscribe and hope I can hear more of it !
Just finished watching ToG and holy crap this is amazingly similar to Penkin's. I love it so much. (I'm back, that comment from 5 months ago haha)
Loved it so much! Keep them coming plz!
I will :)
two weeks later, still in love with this.
CONTINUE THATS BEAUTY
This music is amazing!
Very nice work ! Congratulations ! Each songs are amazing !

Thank you! I'll bring more ;)
Great job!!! awesome music my guy!
Thank you!
Awesome! I Hope they Use this Song for the trailer for season 2
You know what will absolutely slap ? Making the rumbling of scientific triumph sound tower godly
This shit slaps great job
Bro how are you not getting an official contract or something. Such an underrated artist. I truly thank you for providing this masterpiece ❤️
Thank you for listening! I Really appreciate it :)
@@MaxShirshovMusic Proud to see you get these views
keep em coming bro
These videos are art
Thanks so much. Will do!
Kinda sad we won't be getting a full version of Utopia unless the one that commissioned it allows for it to get out... But that minute and 50 seconds is godlike to listen to! >o
U r great this composition is on another level
Another masterpiece from u
This was really a good one NGL!
Simply amazing!
So nice
Epic music from an epic journey from an epic story.
Это божественные видео, обожаю башню бога, благодарю тебя! 💜❤, делай больше подобных роликов! С подобным оформлением
The dislikes are from Rachel and her many accounts
Another work of art keep it up dude
Thank you! :)
Please keep making music like this. Pleeeeeaaase. It's so fucking good
Thank you! I will :)
the vibes are fucking incredible.
however this does make me wonder how penkin integrated the choirs so seamlessly - I thought they were samples and was surprised to see him playing it through midi
This is brilliant
Do more! you are really good, i love this kind of music
Thank you, I will! :)
absolutely, this was fantastic!!
You earn the Subscribe. Now i know where to go for listening
Thank you!
i really love this ost
The second song gives me the vibe of rising out of the Abyss and seeing the sky again. Maybe the title could reflect that?
Great composition. Subscribing
This is really good sounding!!
