#dark #ambience #backgroundmusic - Hudba
I'm a teacher in a school located in the poor suburb of a big city in France.
Most students are uneducated, disruptive and sometimes even violent. It's really a tough life, for us but also for them...
Recently, after discovering your channel, I sit alone in the classroom after each day and put this music (or the train ambient from Silent Hill). It heals the mental wounds of the day and helps me recover a bit of calm, of sanity. On friday, I stayed half an hour like that.
A thousand thanks for your great work.
Oh hell, that sounds very stressful! Stay strong, my friend! And merci beaucoup for listening and your support! 🖤
I wish you the best of days and I hope it gets easier for you and your students. Thank you for teaching us young people🙏
ou enseignez-vous si ça n'est pas indiscret ?
keep teaching and doing your best, you are a mentor to the future of the world. Keep going
I use to be a pretty shit student, never paid attention, never cared what teachers were trying to teach me. I've had teachers of all different types of personalities, those who were angry all the time, those who were trying their best to make learning fun and intuative. Being young you tend to be very naive to what the realities of being an adult is like, it isn't till your older you look back at all the older more experienced people in your life and what they were trying to prepare you for. I wish I could go back and apologies to every teacher I ever disappointed, but I can't and I have to live with that.
In saying that tho, I've had teachers who have helped me when I've really needed it, they were patient with me, knew my limitations and helped me work through my struggles. So If I could also go back and tell those teachers how thankful I am I would in a heartbeat. So look at it this way, out of all the students you could be teaching, think of that "one" student, there will be more than one, but look at each them as that "one" student. Because one day you may very well be that teacher that the student will look back on and remember.
“I've always felt alone. My whole life. For as long as I can remember. I don't know if I like it or if I'm used to it, but I know this; being lonely does things to you. Feeling shit and bitter and angry all the time just... eats away at you...”
Yeah and then when you try and reach out the trust has vanished. Inability to trust but just avoid people.
Te entiendo tanto, si no fuera por mi mamá y hermana me sentiría muy muy sola...
I couldn't agree more , the feeling of loneliness & the understanding of it is mutual . it does do things to you ; & in my experience , one of those things is it teaches you to survive , to create the willpower that it takes to overcome the mental & emotional trauma that it takes to deal with the loneliness & personal isolation . however , you learn to use that willpower & take on the world , so that nothing will ever get in your way . nothing . you possess the personal strength , the willpower . so , don't ever allow that loneliness & isolation beat you . Peace .
@@ShintoNin no, beeing alone is good. You arenttaking the good way
Eventually the body itself is being attacked & harmed. Yes. Its horrible and great pity.
Hang in there y lonely souls, distant cousins of mine, out there
There was a time when getting messages like that was annoying, you close your eyes for a while and there is only a memory of these days.
Real
The text message, along with the music, make me tear up a bit
🖤
Midwich always clutches up with the ambience.@@midwichmusic
I just imagine a kid sees this text by his mom and never makes it home.
Makes me feel like a jerk cuz I would get these kinds of texts or calls by my mom when hanging out with my friends, and I'd feel embarrassed so I'd be annoyed or ignore them for a bit.
The fact that you feel like a jerk shows you care. @@Hiccupocalypse
Probably it’s cool having parents, that worry about you
I am unemployed at 40 years old in Spain. No matter how hard I look, I can't find anything and it's very stressful. This kind of music helps me meditate and relax, good job.
Te deseo suerte amigo, ten fe, no te rindas
mucha suerte hermano, verás que las cosas se solucionan pronto
ánimo tío, las cosas están mal pero tu eres mas fuerte
Best of luck to you my friend - I'm certain things will get better
Espero que tu situación mejorará, te deseo lo mejor, aunque no te conozco la empatía que siento por ti es grande, cuídate mucho y no te rindas.
This is what a modern survival horror save room music should be like, in fact, it should be inspired to have such a beautiful yet despairing flow of emotions like this song is.
10/10 my friend
Huge thanks! I really appreciate it 🖤
Exactly my thoughts. Instantly got Resident Evil Save Room vibes. Eerily beautiful with a touch of nostalgia. Love to just sit back and reflect on my life, with music like this, alone, at night
This is what todays modern world is like.
Really nice music, it goes well with the video and style of the game. /Andreas, behind CoF
Hey Andreas, thank you so much for your feedback and this beautiful masterpiece of a game! Best regards 🖤
the industry of videogames needs you Andreas, come back and make another masterpiece please
Best of luck with your next project Andreas. CoF is still one of my all time favorite horror games.
I shouldn't be surprised Cry of Fear still gets this much love to this day
From the moment I entered this world, I was alone. My twin, my other half, had not made it through the journey. I never knew him, never felt his presence beside me, yet his absence was a constant echo in my life.
Growing up, I reveled in the quiet moments, the solitude that embraced me like a comforting cloak. In those hushed spaces, I felt a presence, not of loneliness, but of a kindred spirit, a silent companion who walked beside me, unseen yet ever-present.
It was in these moments of quietude that music spoke to me most profoundly. Melodies wove themselves around my heart, their harmonies echoing the unspoken bond I shared with my unseen twin. The notes carried a poignant beauty, a bittersweet symphony of what could have been, a shared life we were never destined to experience.
As the years passed, I learned to carry the weight of my twin's absence with a quiet grace. I embraced the solitude that had been my constant companion, finding solace in the knowledge that I was never truly alone. My twin was there, in the whispers of the wind, the rustling of leaves, the gentle caress of a passing breeze.
He was in the music that stirred my soul, in the art that touched my heart, in the beauty that surrounded me. He was in the love of those around me, in the kindness of strangers, in the simple joys of life.
And though I will never know my twin in this life, I carry him with me always. He is the silent half of my being, the unseen companion who walks beside me, a constant reminder of the profound connection that transcends life and death.
In the quiet moments, when the world fades away and only the music remains, I feel his presence most keenly. It is a bittersweet feeling, tinged with sadness for what could have been, yet filled with gratitude for the invisible bond that unites us.
One day, perhaps, in some realm beyond our understanding, our paths will cross. Until then, I carry his memory with me, a precious treasure in the quiet chambers of my heart.
I love how beloved Cry of Fear has become. I never really was able to hop on the silent hill train when it was in its prime so Cry Of Fear was my forst experience in a game being totally alone in a dark forboding empty city. It created this whole asthetic in my head of loneliness that has stuck with me since
Bienvenue au club !
God i need to play cry of fear again
It’s a strange game with me
When I begin playing it again, it’s almost like my life follows Simon. People begin to leave, I get cheated on, overall negative things happen. But I come home and keep playing it, becoming lost in his story instead of mine.
When I finish the game. Suddenly life becomes normal again. Sometimes positive.
Obviously this could be because I’m playing a game about a depressed man so I’m in that mindset. But it makes you think
Why do I love playing it over and over when it just seems to do that?
I’ll always hold cry of fear as my top game. Even with its strange curse it has with me
Thank you for this video.
it certainly is a powerful game. it shows you darkness and then shows you the reason to look at the glimmer of light. then your mindset changes entirely, and your perspective shifts.
It's amazing how this text message brings me nostalgia. And I'm not talking about the old cell phone, but rather this age threshold (14yo-18yo) between having the freedom to go out with friends and come back late at night, but even so, you're a child, and your mother is still responsible for you , she is worried. This kind of thing.
Man that text really hits hard with this remorseful, yet guilt-ridden sounding ambience.
I’m not going through shit rn , hell my life is even on the up. However, I used to be a very depressed, stressed and confused teen. Cry of Fear is one of those pieces of media that reminds me of my old self and I cant help but feel an echo, a small reminder of the misery and loneliness I used to feel daily.
Decided to put this on during a late night study session. Instead spend most of the time staring at one spot and ruminating about my past lol.
Cry of fear has helped me by showing that there’s people that understand the problems I’m dealing with at the moment and it giving me comfort. Like Simon I deal with sh and really bad depression for a few years now, and I felt like nobody has really understood the struggles and intrusive thoughts that come with that, this game has shown me that others understand those thoughts and feelings, and it makes me feel less alone when I get bad. Cry of fear is also just a really good game in general so that helps too sad that it’s not talked about as much as it should be, but at the same time it’s fun to show others that can handle the themes yk.this game has just helped me out and I hope others feel the same way about it
this is pure horror. not monsters, aliens, serial killers, ghosts or anything. this sound itself describes the scariest thing a human could possibly experience, being stuck in the extreme and deep lonesome. can't get over it and decaying day by day and fading away.
I’m from Russia and I'm 26 years old. I suffer from schizophrenia, my only friend turned away from me and i can’t communicate with my relatives because they remember me horrible episodes from my life. And I don't have more people with whom I can talk. Especially about my illness...
Just thank you for this. The game inspired me to continue my treatment, and it’s very nice to me, listen to and watch this.
You're welcome! Stay safe, mate 🖤
This feels like HOME
I remember when Cry Of Fear first came out. I remember downloading it day 1 and being blown away by how amazing it looked. I really wish the team behind it would make more games. They're clearly good at what they do.
man this threw me back, theres a weird comfort in being depressed and suicidal, lonely, i have no idea how to describe it and it sounds so contradictory, and it is, but that feeling when its raining outside all day and your blinds are completely shut so your room is completely black feeling numb from the cold and your depression eats away at you as you stare at a wall for almost an entire day, completely hollow but in and out of awareness of your senses. theres a weird inner warmth as well? this sounds like that feeling that i cant place. like he said “i dont know if i like it, or if im just used to it, but being lonley does things to you.” , i was depressed for the first decade and a half for my life but im better now. this just throws me back to that one feeling id have. its insanely bitter sweet
Those feelings are real; that is why that state is so dangerous.
Such familiar feelings and words. Sweet bitterness especially
If this is what it is, it's good to know someone else is or has experienced it. While in person it is hard to relate, over the phone do I find people to understand
very true
I always found it so weird how you'd be hard pressed to find any ambient videos on Cry of Fear, because it is a relatively popular game with very moody environments.
You've done a great service to the horror community with this, thank you!
Midwhich I just wanted to say thank you for making this. I get home on weekdays around 10Pm=11pm at night and after a long day I like to unwind by sitting on my porch. With this music it's so comforting and enjoyable. Been listening to a lot of this ambience from you actually. Just wanted to make an appreciation comment.
First of all, thank you very much for the kind words! 🖤
I do exactly the same thing when I come home from work in the late evening, when my little daughter and my wife are already sleeping. Just sitting on the sofa in my studio, listening to some ambient tracks and relax.
This game is so underrated, what a masterpiece, thank you for reminding me it exists
what game is this?
Cry of Fear , its a mod based on the old half life engine, a modified version (GoldSrc)@@dhungryarchitect
@@dhungryarchitectCry Of Fear
@@dhungryarchitect Bro seriously play it, when I was like 10 years old I played it for the first time, but I stopped in the beggining because "The puzzles were too complicated", but it was bc I was a freaking 10 year old kiddo, a lot of years passed since I havent played it again, 4 weeks before this day I decided to give the game a 2nd chance, and it was awesome, one of the best games that TRULY represents depression, anxiety, etc. Despite the topics that the game has like suicide and depression, it is pretty enjoyable, and if youre kinda sensitive about this topics, well, I recommend you not to play it, so thats it, God bless you my friend!
😊😊
This ambience
it's like it makes me be calmed inside of me and, swimming in the depth of my soul, felling something like, i never felt before...
for me this sound encaptures the feeling of realizing your friends are drifting away + the text message makes it more about that, in my opinion
found this while having a really bad episode of hallucinations at night, the calm of it all outweighed the dread they give me. I guess even if it were all real, I can at least find peace in knowing that I'm calm now.
Stay safe my friend! 🖤
love you bro stay safe
Old games had the best atmosphere, the new ones are too flashy with poor atmoshpere .
Nothing last forever
Masterpiece.
It almost makes me feel that I will die alone, very nostalgic depression. The game pretty much sums how I am mentally.
I think this ambience dug up some repressed emotions since I've been crying for a full 45 minutes now. I've been a full-on NEET for the past three years because I couldn't cope with the stresses of fitting in, having to take care of so much responsibility. No one prepared me for this. I hope I can dig myself out of this eventually but re-entering society feels like such an upward struggle that I fantasize about suicide regularly. I feel so fucked man.
Think about where you really want to be in life, What would actually make you happy then make plan with small steps towards it. The steps can be incredibly small to begin with. Something as simple as going for a half hour walk everyday. But no matter how small with each step you will be getting closer to your goal.
Expect to fail often as well, You'll make mistakes you'll regress a bit, Things will go wrong. That's normal. But take a breath and then realign and get back on the path.
Also join a gym (pay for a personal trainer) and later on a sport or martial art. Becoming physically stronger massively improves your mental health, And a martial art forces you to socialize with other people, puts your in situations where you have to face huge anxiety, and overcome difficult challenges. The rest of life will seem clear and easy in comparison.
Talk to some friends or family if you're really feeling suicidal as well. Dont kill yourself ok, We'll all be dead soon enough anyway. This is your one chance at a life and I know you will find a way to make the best of it. Good luck.
I felt the same once, it gets so much easier. you have to throw yourself into new situations, its the only way. you'll thank yourself. I believe in you!
This song makes me think of when I was younger and much happier than i am today. Thank u for making this song
Cry of fear was and still stays my favourite horror experience of all time. The ambience and music, atmosphere and such being a massive reason behind it, this upload is a peaceful way to enter that world space through my minds eye for a while. Thank you kindly
Thank you so much! 🖤
I'm just wondering, have you played Silent Hill? They are very similar
Thank you for providing such an ambience.
Normally, I don't like extreme horror games, especially psychological ones.
But this game occupies a completely different place for me.
Simon's struggle with his psychology.
Anxiety and anxieties appear as monsters and we struggle with them.
For some reason I feel at home in this game
I know the producer of the game
And when I talked to him, ruMpel (game maker) said that he did not have enough budget for the Cof Remake and unfortunately the project was closed.
Nice Ambience, recently been going through depression and thinking about the future, this calmed me down, thanks.
Stay safe, my friend! Thank you for stopping by 🖤
Okay, my mental issues are not any better, but this ambience has actually helped me to come up with a new idea for a video game. You are a character with severe mental issues. His name is Jessie Martin (came up with it on the fly) and he works at this lab that is experimenting with mind exploration. The scientists figure out that there is an entirely different universe parallel to the actual universe called the Neuroverse. It is essentially every person that ever lived and their minds formed into one universe, and Jessie is sent to explore it. You learn about the corruption within in laboratory and you are also being hunted by a mysterious entity known as the NeruoFlayer. This creature, which is soon revealed to be an alternate version of Jessie, tries to mentally torture Jessie by putting he/her (dysphoria) through painful moments and terrifying imagery from other peoples memories. There will probably be a combat system along with the game, but it is mostly like an Alan Wake/Cry of Fear/Silent Hill style game.
ain't readin allat 👍
@@we__do L
sounds sick
You should play In Sound Mind
Dude, you were able to create this masterpiece! I felt like a depressed schoolgirl. When I was 13 years old, I had terrible apathy and mild depression, during this period I started playing Cry of Fear. You know, it helped me overcome this unbearable condition. It's been 10 years, but I still love this game. Playing, it was as if I was walking through Stockholm at night and felt lonely and hopeless. I even imagined my outfit: a sleeveless hoodie, a skirt, leggings and berets
Sleveeless hoodie.. Reminds me of a certain silent hill character..
beret? Ghhhwaaaaawh French! xd
Totalement d’accord avec toi je m’imagine traverser Stockholm la nuit ayant la même tenue que Simon ❤ sa me fait du bien
This feels like RE4 Serenity
that one is hell of a stylish song
I'm immensely grateful for this.
As a photographer based in Belgium, my work tends to evoke a slightly darker aesthetic than typical images.
Working on a series of photos, I slipped on my headphones and let the music carry me through my creative process.
During a challenging period, I found solace in playing the game. Perhaps I resonated with the character on a deeper level. The narrative of Simon's journey always struck me as a gripping rollercoaster of emotions. Offering both escape and introspection when I needed it most. Again thank you...
Great music, take me back to the good old days when I started playing COF in high school.
Id say this needs train noises in the background and its gonna capture Cry of Fear's fibe to the fullest
its given me that same feeling when my mother sang to be when i was real young. Thank you, great track.
I love ambient osts like this, this really sounds soothing
listened to this while playing dark and darker at night with my hot coffee, i love life.
This kind of gives me the same feeling as the Guts theme. Thank you.
This music is too beautiful and made me cry. It tore open my old wounds over and over again...
I dont have a phone, but I have a walkman I like to carry with me at night. I downloaded this just so I could meditate on a park bench while listening to this. Love from berlin ~🖤❤💛
Grüße nach Berlin! Besten Dank für's hören wa 🖤
Cry of Fear inspired me to make my own Half Life 1 mod
let me know when it's done, i'll be glad to play it!
I've never played cry of fear but this playlist is soothing to me. It's like picking out your anxieties just to cradle and soothe them so that you may rest. It's pleasant
It brought me back to memories for a while, which I miss a little. There is depth in this.
Thank you, I like your ambient music videos
Thank you, I'm glad you like it 🖤
You always make me say "Wow" when I click on your videos and those synths fill my ears. What a great picture, too. My favorite channel.
Thank you so much as always! 🖤🎶
Currently one of my favorite videos on youtube. The atmosphere, the text message, the sound, all just fit so well. Love from Brazil
Cheers, my friend and huge thanks! 🖤
my girlfriend of 6 years is leaving me. i spent a lot of nights crying and driving around and then coming home and listening to this. this specific video or ambience track of this video feels like a place in my mind of uncertainty and worry as our love diminished into ashes within a matter of months. it makes me sad but this also brings me to peace as well because this is what i would end the night of ugly crying with
Dark and beautiful 🖤😌👍
Danke vielmals! ✌️
This has become easily one of my all time favourite playlists for falling asleep. There's alot of dark ambient music videos out there now and whereas I do enjoy them alot this one hits different somehow. (Which is kinda funny, because I didn't even know Cry of fear existed before finding this video)
Thx a lot! And do you want to play the game one day? ^^
You are the best uploader of ambient music in youtube. Truly a haunting and yet chilling OST.
It’s a pity that you can’t erase memories, I would like to do that and go through this game again
Once upon a time I was born in a developing, young, European country. At some point, the development of politics in this country reached a dead end. But a man appeared who knew a way out. They tried to poison him, but he survived; when he returned home to this country, he was arrested. Today they killed him. It got darker, much darker. I'm scared
Hauntingly beautiful 😍🩶
Thank you! 🖤
This feels as if I've walked into heaven...
This NEEDS to go on Spotify. I will listen to this for hours I swear.
It will be on the next album, coming in May ;)
Thank you for making this. This game is truly a gem.
Thanks for listening! ^^
know I've made mistakes
But I want to have you
I will protect you from afar Even though I'm alive It feels like i'm dead
Don't go
Don't leave me
In this moment
I am with you
My love still remains
So I'm not alone I will give myself to you in your eyes
Just a little
Even if it's just a little
When you take my heart
My tears fall in memory
I will love you Forever.
This is a masterpiece, well done!
It hits hard with that mobile message out. Well done!
Agree. The whole scene is perfect: the message, the bare trees that move slightly in the wind with falling leaves, the clouds passing by. The music is the cherry on top.
It’s getting dark but the lamps on the wall keeps the path clear
Cry of fear is a very surreal game. What adds more to how i feel about it is the fact that I live in Sweden, and much of the apartment buildings and other structures are so similar in Cry Of fear.
This is beautiful, thank you for this masterpiece!
If CapCom doesn’t hire you to write their next save room theme, I’m quitting
Don't risk your job for this fantasy, bro 😂 But thank you so much for the compliment! 🖤
So comforting
The only thing in weeks for me. Thank you for this
Sony Ericsson walkman, what a masterpiece it was😢
This is so nice...definitely gonna put this in my anxiety playlist, tysm 💘💘💘
Thanks a lot!
I need more ambiences just like this one. This is hauntingly beautiful
We definitely need more Cry Of Fear themed videos, and I suggest looking into Frictional Games 2015 title "SOMA". Really scary game but with absolutely beautiful ambience! It's always a good day when Midwich uploads!
Thank you! And thank you for the recommendation. SOMA was really awesome! 🖤
Played Cry Of Fear for the first time not too long ago. One of the better horror games out there, and it was a free mod. Outstanding
this is exactly the ambient that calms me down when I'm sitting alone (this happens very often) I lose myself when I'm alone, bad things come into my head, but when I turn on this ambient, it helps me to distract myself or fall asleep, as has happened more than once.
P.S. I used a translator.
i feel like i am in the rain without a umbrella, just standing , somehow enjoying but also a litlle sad, understanding the emotion of myself.. i feel with hope :3 Keep the head up people!!
I keep coming back to this. Would love more cry of fear inspired ambience.
🖤
Wish this was on Spotify this is amazing
It will be soon. Thank you ^^
wow thank you for your work! i was genuinely surprised to see a cry of fear video from 2024! i simply love the ambience of this game, please make more of it. imagine you were walking through sweden in winter and had to make a soundtrack..
These are consistently without fail, very good.
Thanks! 🖤
hi, i´m a college freshman from Chile. i have been feeling pretty exhausted of the sudden weight over me, expectations, self imposed goals and trying to keep a social life. still, even with everything around me seeming like it won´t get any better i plug my earphones, put this playlist on and just keep going. maybe a bit of a long stretch, but i like to imagine myself as someone like Simon, that even when things looked so awfully pessimistic he manages to keep on living (atleast in one ending lol). even so, thank you so much for helping me out on these stressful days :)
I wish you all the best to Chile! Hope everything will be fine soon. Thank you very much for your support. 🖤
for channeling this particular kind of beauty into atmospheric music this well, you are criminally underrepresented in follower count
Big thanks!
This eased pain of my own existence, honestly thank you.
im gonna be a sophomore in high school and im struggling a bit, just found this on my recommended, this really helped me calm down! Thank you for making this post and keep up with the good work!
He stands and doesn't move so long, like monster NPCs
It brightens up my loneliness, thank you
Have been listening to this in my darkets hours... quite healing i would say
After more than a decade of hearing about the game, since 2012 when it released, I finally worked up the courage to S Rank this game with all endings and unlocks obtained. It took some out of me, but I managed to do it and overcome my fears. Nostalgia! 👌😱👻☠️☠️
Congrats on that, my friend 😄👍
I have not played Cry of Fear before, though I want to at some point, but this music...I don't know how to describe it, but it touches some part of my soul when I listen to it. Thank you.
This is one of my favorite video games ever and I'm so happy that you made this. Thank you.
Thank you Midwich, there is always beauty in your music!
Thank you for this compliment! I highly appreciate it! 🖤
this heals me.
This game had such a powerful message. Such a great game. Thank you for making this!
Instead of my mother it’s my phone bill msg whilst I’m in the woods 2.7 miles out and losing service on foot but just enough service to listen to this nice ambience 10/10 time for an MRE BBQ shredded beef💪💯
Has to be one of rather emotional videos I have seen this month. Thank you.
Midwhich, your videos and ambience are wildly underrated, don't stop doing what you're doing . I especially love these game inspired ones you create. If you could make one with rain or hurricane noise that would be awesome.
Thank you for the feedback! Yes, I will definitely make a few more tracks with soothing rain. ^^
Hauntingly beautiful, and so serene. Definitely one of my favourites - great work!
YES!!! Thank you for this! I’m a huge fan of cry of fear and ambience ❤👏
This game is one of my favorites what a classic and its free how rad is tht.
I quit smoking but for some reason listening to this triggers the desire to smoke. Weird.
And I just saw that this is your ambience, so I have to tell you that this is incredible. Have a subscribe, bro.
Recently discovered this ambient, great for times where i just wanna be completely alone with my own thougths.
Sometimes i ask to myself why i feel this way.
I´ve been following you for months and I never thought that you would do something inspired by Cry of Fear. It sounds amazing. This is the dark ambient I like.
Thanks a lot, mate! 🖤
Wow. A perfect music for Cry Of Fear.
I was playing it again a couple months ago.
