Has anyone else noticed how Lyney & Lynette's leitmotifs are *melodic inversions* of each other? 🤭 Thought that was an exceptionally cool detail back when their demos released together ♫ ♪
@@SlippersgobrrOne way to visualise it could be... imagine transcribing Lyney's leitmotif (aka the distinct melody in his demo) onto a musical staff, then flip the whole thing *upside-down!* Then you'll get-with a few slight alterations-Lynette's leitmotif. It's as if the two are water reflections of each other ♫
@@Ravenna.E.Blackbirdwhich is really cool because they are both a presentation to pneuma and ousia the element of light (upbeat and cheerful) and dark (reserved and silent)
@@roxas5071 Also in Lynette's Demo, there is a motif of Day and Night, which is represented by her running _upside down as the clock strikes midnight._ Also, the twin's constellations are black and white cats respectively, which parallels with the Day and Night theme in Lynette's Demo and the fact that they are both Arkhes!!
First track started being composed by Yu-Peng Chen and the last track ends with Dimeng Yuan being the composer. This Stellar Moments is a baton relay pass 🥺
Dimeng Yuan has a fun approach to his piece from what I notice while Yu-Peng Chen focuses on the theme and serious feeling that the character is about Both are good, maybe they can just alternate depending on the character given
Yu-peng Chen didn't actually make this specific song, but is credited as the composer because he composed the melody. Xin Zhao actually arranged the song and made it sound the way it does, and credits YPC because he used his melody. Just to clarify, Yu-peng Chen didn't write Novatio Novena.
I know, right? Compared to the standard character demo compositions, Furina's was an entire bloody *cinematic production* of its own! Mon dieu- the theatrics, the flair, the ✨pizazz✨ Was so surprised by the quality (and I mean...come on, electro swing). Definitely one of my favourites ♫ ♪
Before Fontaine released, there was some schmegegge speculating that the soundtrack for Fontaine would be underwhelming as it went with known European symphonic inspirations. People suspected it was just going to be that along with some jazz and generic French folk music. So I am so glad that there's a piece, for Furina no less, that goes against the grain while still embracing Fontaine's inspirations with very French style electroswing.
Furina’s demo music slaps SO hard, it has that perfect mixture of 40s swing, the French vocals, and classical. It’s just so good. Even without Yu Peng Chen, hoyomix still been eating and understanding the assignment EACH time.
@@NetrocMagi True, some ppl even discredit other composers very often, believing that there won't be any good music after Yu Peng Chen departed. Or they simply don't know anyone but him.
These is one of the best sets of character demo soundtracks we’ve had so far! Between Scara, Dehya, Neuvillete, Wriothesley and all the others, this is just banger after banger
@@amberxv4777dehya I understand,it is metal But scara's theme is far from metal? Same with wriothesley,they go for a more electronic feeling than metal
furina's demo theme, "se mettre sur son trente-et-un !", directly translates to roughly "to put on one's thirty-one", but is a popular expression meaning to get dressed up/prepare for a big occasion! additionally, the french language often has a space before a few different punctuation marks, exclamation marks included :) another awesome collection of character themes for vol. 4!! will definitely be listening to this for the next while
Btw, fun fact: "se mettre sur son trente-et-un" basically means dressing up as your best! :3 (the expression refers ro how rich ppl would dress luxuriously)
@@VijayMarshall Nope. "Se mettre sur" means "mettre sur soi" (lit. "dress with" or to "wear something on yourself"). 31 read as "trente et un" is a worn out version of the word "trentain" that changed due to the way people pronounced it. A trentain was a fancy dress.
People always talk about character themes, and rightfully so - they are all wonderful. But man, these outfit teaser tracks are always such bangers! I'm glad I was reminded of that while listening to this album. Happy it's finally out!
whiplash from Ashes of Anupadhisesa to Whirling of Vairambhaka is unreal lmao from what i consider to be saddest character OST in Genshin to absolute bop catchy af OST
From the most complex characters,emotional mess of perfection to grandma faruzan I don't mind it since I just think of the transition in the 3.3 trailer but it's still a bit jarring
FINALLY ! WANDERER AND FARUZAN ! Btw, I love how Furina theme is named "Se mettre sur son trente-et-un", which basically means "To prepare oneself for an incredible moment"
@@davidhwang5838 Yes, in French 31 is basically the "perfect" number so anything to do with it is to communicate something impeccable, tbh it's used very often in French for other meaning too from what i can tell
@@ramythetankrider5405 it's false, "se mettre sur son trente-et-un" is a folk misunderstanding of the expression "se mettre sur son trentain" which is a fancy cloth
My favourite OSTs: Wanderer’s 00:00 Alhaitham’s 10:13 Dehya’s 14:57 Mika’s 16:57 Baizhu’s 21:20 Lyney’s 28:19 Neuvillette’s THE BEST 34:31 Wriothesley's THE BEST 39:24 Furina’s THE BEST 45:30 The others are great too, it’s just that I get goosebumps when I hear these❤ HOYO-MiX never disappoints
*inhale*. *exhale*. 21:20 For this remarked day, from this rostrum, since 1 May 2023, the day which baizhu’s demo got released, I happily announce that my waiting for 8 months, 37 weeks, 261 days, 6264 hours, 375,840 minutes For this very moment, for this very well composed three minutes long piece of music, for this deep, elegant, expressive, emotional, evocative, mesmerizing, captivating, soulful, awe-inspiring, transformative, hauntingly beautiful, Enthralling, enchanting, harmonious, lulling, empowering, Otherworldly, Engrossing, emotive, Exalting, Transcendent, Heartening music, for this uncrowned track, this underrated, unrecognized, non renowned music, has Finally come to an end.
YES IT'S HERE!!!! I CAN _FINALLY_ LISTEN TO WANDERER'S THEME WOOOOOOOOOOOOO -And also, of course, that -_-funky-_- guitar rhythm at the beginning of Furina's theme that I've been obsessing over for the past 2 months 😩-
KAVEH`S THEME IS A BANGER, I`VE BEEN WAITING FOR HIS OST FOR AGES. Also, Alhaitham`s theme hits different from remixes, which were made before ost release. I dropped a tear while listening these
Finally, we hear character themes from the Wanderer to Furina😊. I've been waiting a year for this album to be released. Yay. I'm so freaking happy right now😄
I forgot how absolutely gorgeous Dehya’s teaser music was! Also I didn’t see anyone talking about about Kaveh’s theme even though it’s super pretty too imo Edit: Also Furina’s teaser theme makes me want to cry, so beautiful
Feels like I've been waiting years for Dehya's song (Fervent Flare) and it's finally here. Best one imo, the whole album is great. But Fervent Flare is just my cup of tea. 🔥🔥🤟🤟
YES FINALLY, I've been waiting for the official version of Scara's demo theme! No other video had the right whispers in the background lol. That's my favorite track in this album personally.
@@eightyeight2379Yeah, their cover was probably the closest to the original, but it was still midi. No reason to ever listen to a cover again now that the official version is out.
the quality and amount of detail in every character is actually insane, so worth the wait ❤ my personal favorites are alhaitham teaser, dehnya, baizhu & wrio's demos!
Thank you Hoyoverse for releasing furina's, faruzan's, and the other character's theme, you guys make the best soundtrack that I've heard, keep up the good work :D
Furina’s demo being called “Se mettre sur son trente et un” is like so iconic what 😭 Idk if its also an expression in english but in french when let’s for example you’re inviting someone to a party and you tell them to “be on their 31” (literally) or “look 31” in other words is like telling them to look really elegant/free/young. (ARCHON QUEST SPOILERS) Shows how Furina is trying to be herself now and be happy as a human and forget her pain 🫶
The equivalent expression in English is to be dressed “to the nines”. It can be used for other situations but it’s mostly used say someone is dressed as well/extravagantly as possible.
My personal favorite themes are from wanderer, faruzan, baizhu, neuvilleutte, mika (I forgot he existed for a good moment), rizzley. As per usual everything is a banger and choosing only one favorite is hard EVERYTHING IS A BANGER
Why does Baizhu's theme have to hit that hard Dayum 🤦♂? Also Faruzan and Kaveh, in my feel-good playlist right away because they're just such a vibe 👏👏
We don’t need to prove that Furina is an archon, nor do we debate whether she was an archon or no, true player must’ve acknowledged that Furina deserved the Archon title, Those who said that she’s not an archon (which is true) and ignored all her efforts to be the archon are just pure hater
