Is Ace Combat 7’s Hush BETTER THAN my beloved Daredevil? 

I love how Hush sounds simultaneously like you’re winning and you’re loosing. Really gives the sense that the result of the battle hangs on the edge and anything could tip the scales.

I swear to God. The more Ace combat tracks I hear. The more I wonder why this series is so criminally underrated. That was beautiful.

I remember someone commenting that the synth at the beginning slowly transitioning to an orchestra represents the game’s narrative of humans triumphing over machines

The electronic noise at the beginning of Hush is supposed to be the two AI controlled super planes you're fighting "talking" to each other as they coordinate their attacks with an almost humanlike level of consciousness. Throughout the mission you can hear it over the in-game radio and it's pretty unnerving. That Kobayashi incorporated that sound into Hush really highlights that this mission is the tipping point of history: a world dominated by endless AI-controlled warfare, or one where humans rise up and become symbols of hope and inspiration

I got pretty distracted by the pretty music - AC7 playthrough coming in a couple weeks.

The thing behind Hush is that if you're perfect with mission timing, the melody will hits the right spots at the right moments fitting perfectly with the mission, it's INSANE

Daredevil sounds like a song from a pilot, sitting in the cockpit and waiting for the chance to bring down all the enemies. While Hush sounds like a song from those innocent people that get caught into war. Their fear and the feelings of being frightened on their life at first, and female vocal for searching hope within all those. Then finally they have their hero flying above the clouds, pointing the direction of where they should follow to. What a piece!

One of my favorite parts of Hush is the electric screech at the start. The way it sounds so electronic and discordant against the orchestra fits perfectly with the unnatural, inhuman AI drone fighter we're up against.

Man, Hush brings back a lot of memories. Hugin and Munin forming a helix pattern in their paths as you approach the space elevator, the intense dogfight between them and the Coalition forces, chasing the two in between the elevator’s supports, the many MANY times I played this mission to reliably save Sol 2. I also like the small touch of Norse mythology that (most) Ace Combat games add. Mostly in the forms of squadron and ship names, but also the Erusean capital itself, as well as the operations to take it, are also references to Fárbauti (sometimes spelled Farbanti), the giant who ferried the souls of the deceased to Hel, and was also the father of Loki

That theme from Daredevil isnt so much from Daredevil itself. Its the main leitmotif of the whole game, you first hear it during the opening cutscene (in a track named Drag Racer, which also slaps) and it carries through the entire game. Daredevil is that same leitmotif coming out in its full force, its return literally screaming at you that this is the decisive moment of truth, that its now or never, and that you have the chance to put an end to it all. Hush is that same melody fighting against the oppressive power of the the enemy youre facing afterward, nearly being drowned out but stubbornly hanging on regardless. Its why Daredevil is so bombastic and heroic, while Hush is more quiet, solemn and determined. Further driving this point home, the track playing as you take off for the mission where Hush plays, that quite literally leads you into Hush, is called Determination.

Lemme tell ya, I had tears in my eyes playing and hearing this for the first time. Absolute master class in how shaping a leitmotif in different ways evokes just the right emotions in the player for the scenario.

Hush represent perfectly the feelings of the people during the legendary dogfight with Huging and Muging, depicting the entitity of the battle and impling what you're fighting for. Daredevil is focused on reminding all that you've been through, expressing the feelings for flight itself and celebrating a great victory achieved by everyone but mostly you. Another really important song is Faceless Soldier, a midgame track that acts a clean cut between two phases of the title. The first desperate battle for survival and redemption and the second part, pure unfolding of the squadron feelings, linking everyone's wings together for a moment, before Bandog's death and second Trigger's strike into his growth.

Hush is my favorite level theme in the game, it's perfect for this sense of "Oh god, the world is on my shoulders, I can't fuck this up." The only thing that's missing here is the glitchy and scrappy garbles of the AI drones you're fighting in the mission. They add a real horror element to the game

The opening of the song is also... electronic. What's coming is not "human". It's not as heart pumping as other songs, because it's an elegant dance that belies something horrific underneath the surface. It's easy to get caught up in what you see and what you feel, and miss what's really happening. But there IS a human element. As the song continues, you engage in that dance. You're part of that human element. You are human. And because you're human, you can recognize both aspects of this scene. It's grandeur and beauty, it's sorrows and dangers. And you realize: it's just you. Only you can do this. Only you.

Words cannot describe how excited I am to see you play this game and see the context of these soundtracks firsthand.

Hush also has callbacks to the track "ADFX-10" from an earlier mission if you fancy a listen

I will never get tired of seeing Maestro Marco having a geek-gasm over Ace Combat. The best part? I end up reliving my first AC geek-gasm right along with him. *And I love it.*

I've been the one hammering this one for months. I love its build upon Daredevil like my love of Zero's build upon The Unsung War. it doesn't feel like simple leitmotifs; I love how Kobayashi can not just write musical masterpieces, but can write *sequels* to masterpieces.

It's honestly pretty conflicting choosing between hush & Daredevil. Standalone, it's easy to see Daredevil as the superior But when it comes to how they are used both in game and in trailers, Hush is far superior. Daredevil became the unbelievable 'i guess we win now' song. Hush solidified itself as the Final Boss theme of AC7. (Not counting 'Eastern Wind' into 'Space elevator' for i understand how many lives that tunnel has taken)

There's a lot of hidden gems of Ace Combat 7 music that are included in the soundtracks. And i would like Marco to check them all out like Faceless Soldier and Battle for Farbanti, the two describes the heroic and uplifting melody of Trigger's journey.

Keiki Kobayashi is the GOAT, unironically shed a tear when I heard this song for the first time. I love how you can pick out form the track how high the stakes are, especially when you know the context and urgency behind the mission it plays in (I'm not gonna explain this as I know someone else will, and they will do it better, plus I don't want to spoil anything). Probably the best song I have heard, in a game or just overall.

It's always amazing how accurately you're able to estimate the story beats of a scene by just listening to the music alone. Really has opened my eyes to just how universal music is as a storytelling tool.

Really like how you went back and compared it to Daredevil, think that adds another layer of analysis that is very interesting. Hopefully you'd consider doing this with Invasion of Gracemeria and Liberation of Gracemeria.

I would have loved if they made this a creepier version of Daredevil, like the cutscene before the mission. Edit: I mean as in how the cutscene was a creepy version of Pensees it should have had a similar vibe.

Ace combat music my beloved ❤ The AC7 motif always gets me when it’s used, and each instance throughout the game makes Daredevil and Hush hit that much harder. The repetition here in a higher octave with new layers of instruments each time makes it feel even more heroic, which pairs amazingly with the beautiful performance from the solo vocalist. Any excuse to listen to Daredevil is a good one, so I’m glad you brought it back out. I love how each song feels so unique but is also so undeniably Ace Combat. Thank you so much for your continued coverage of this incredible series!

The bwaaa at the beginning of daredevil reminds me of a ships horn, which works really well considering the arsenal birds are flying aircraft carriers. Like as the arsenal bird emerges from the clouds it blows its horn to signal its arrival, like a warship emerging from the fog into battle.

6:00 this is the leitmotiff of the game which you can hear different variants of it throughout the entire games at important moments during the story, be it from the first engagement, or the moment spare squadron becomes a true and cohesive unit, you always hear a variation of this motiff and I personally love to hear it every time.

15:40 when this part plays, the arsenal birds shield comes down and as a personal choice i always choose to be at idle thrust so i can kick in afterburners to move in for the kill when the vocals hit. so the idea of engines powering back on is completely correct in all my playthroughs.

Hush is so good, I really like how it builds up and it feels the vocals lift you up

There's this one comment I read in the music video that provides context regarding the final boss. I suggest finding it in the comment section there yourself. Hugin and Munin. A duel with twin AI powered planes rather than the series staple Legendary Ace. Hush is humanity's ode to it's unpredictability and limitless potential. Flawed humans facing off against perfect machines. A duel between man and machine at an important turning point in this universe. A true masterpiece.

Honestly, you couldn't pay me enough to choose between the two, they're both SO GOOD...

Hush is easily now my favorite piece of all time. Gusty Garden Galaxy from SMG used to hold that spot, but now it’s been knocked down to second place. I love the use of the men’s chorus. I love how the use of the men’s chorus, which can be seen as being Sol Squadron, who has opposed the player for the whole game up until that point, now singing the player’s leitmotif can be viewed as symbolism that Sol Squadron no longer stands against the player, but alongside them.

Waited for this one, love this track so much, right from the start, the female voice gave me chills as my plane headed to the objectives, and as the mission progressed, the choirs with the Daredevil motif reminded me that the stakes were the same, if not greater, as the previous mission, Hush is like the hidden boss that was in the shadows of Daredevil

"There's a big thing that's coming your way." At full throttle, too.

Another way of looking at the oppressive brass and discordant strings as they are the enemy fighting the the chorus of everyone you're fighting with/for. That is a non-spoiler "it will make more sense later" for when you play AC7.

God I love Hush, I'm not sure if anyone mentioned this but I'm pretty sure Daredevil was actually made from Hush as supposed to the other way around since Hush was composed first. By the way you should take a listen to Sound Embrace from Ace Combat Joint Assault, not everyone's favorite Ace Combat game but that song is up there with the other final mission songs in my opinion.

I, too, will never not take the opportunity to listen to Daredevil, especially when someone is there to nerd out to it with me. Also, with that slow rise in the middle with the vocalist taking center and the orchestra pulling back, it's like a jet climbing into a high loop, gaining altitude and losing, and right at the apex of the loop, right as the plane's about to stall, right as the orchestra kicks back in, it's like the plane turns its nose down and guns the engines. Edit: I was only partway through the video when I typed this and then thirty seconds later you made the exact same point.

Also i really like this form of analyze, instead of just listening to the music then reacting/commentating. The video will be longer sure but i do like analyzing pinpoint details of certain melody

The game within the game for me is locating Kobayashi-san's "main theme" leitmotif in each game. You're usually introduced to it fairly early on, but once you identify it and hear it interplay with other tracks throughout the soundscape, especially on a second playthrough, it simply elevates his work even further. My all-time favorite interplay so far has to be the motif from AC5, a game which talked about the Belkan War as a past event, and Zero, in which you play through the war, because UW and Zero are basically the same track, just played at different tempo and key. I cannot compose, but as a vocalist and a music geek in general, that decision sits high on my list of intelligent theming and composition.

I love your reactions to AC music. It's easily one of my favorite game series of all time.

Anchorhead Raid is definitely a heroic banger for sure

I would LOVE to watch you play through Ace Combat 7 if you haven't already. It's not just a game... It is an experience, unlike anything I have ever played.

How did I miss this?! Hush is definitely Daredevil with a different tone. Kudos to that patreon supporter. I overlooked Hush when I played AC7.

On another video of Hush (just the song) on a different channel, there was a comment that made a really good explanation of Hush. I'll try to remember some of it but the biggest thing about this is that Hush is a song that screams Finality and a battle against the end. It's Human Spirit vs cold unfeeling AI / Machines, which is expressed by the heavy ominous digital aounds/horns against the soothing human singing. It's you vs the most advanced AI fighter jets in the world, which are flown by a more advanced version of an AI called the Zone of Endless (Z.O E), which has its own unique history of itself. I love Daredevil just like you but Hush took the cake because of hoe powerful it is, in the moment. Basically fighting the end of the world through perpetual, everlasting warfare. And it was made even better by a continuation of the prior mission where its no longer Osean or Erusean, it's Humankind together, United. It was amazing to fly with the Eruseans we had been fighting with before

Would love to hear more reviews from the Ace Combat series!

Since repeating melodies and leitmotifs are so prevalent in AC games, I’d love to see more of these ‘comparison videos’ in the future. Perhaps Two Pairs, Sol Squadron, & Archange?

Im not gonna lie, when you said two days, i just like" bro dont worry,he's gonna nailed it, " and your interpretation are hit hard!!❤ The thing about Hush (Blue Dark) and Daredevil (Lighthouse) mission, like you said, about death and life situation While Lighthouse mission to end the war, the Dark Blue are about Humanity Stake, on the final mission, you join up with other squadron from other nation that try to kill you in the past, it's not about saving a nation, what is border or pride, it's about saving Humanity itself, which is why the stakes in this mission much higher

Just so you know, I’ve added at least 10 views to each of your Ace Combat videos. I’ll probably add more to all of them again because I enjoy your breakdowns with this awesome music.

I recommend Blue Skies(Infinity remix) which is an insane track from a now unavailable game of the franchise, Ace Combat Infinity. That and a bunch of the tracks from another removed game, Assault Horizon, it's considered the worst game and even then it's still an awesome game with very different music(hint: the game was advertised as "metal carnage" and I consider it as "fighter jet DOOM")

For context: Hush is basically the second half of Daredevil thematically, as the events take place minutes apart both in-universe and in-game, the two themes basically play back to back. There's also about 9 or so other tracks in the OST that use the same theme, it's unofficially known as Trigger's theme, including Daredevil and Hush, there's also; Drag Racer(opening cinematic) Charge Assault(mission 1) Dual Wielder(mission 3) Faceless Soldier(mission 7) Siren's Song(Mission 11) Dragon's Breath(Mission 12) Battle For Farbanti(Mission 15) < My personal favorite, arguably the most "traditional" theme out of the bunch. Dark Blue(Mission 20/Ending cinematic) Conclusion(DLC missions outro) By the way if you still take requests I *highly* recommend listening to Battle For Farbanti for a companion to these two... like Daredevil and Hush it represents an ending to the war, while Hush and Daredevil represent defeating the AI drones and Arsenal Bird respectively, Battle for Farbanti represents the final battle of the war, and the _symbolic_ victory against Erusea. Of course, us Ace Combat players know the final battle is never the actual ending, but it still has a slapping theme while you _almost_ win.

Yes more Ace combat. I will never get over just how good this silly plan music's is.

I just saw this game on sale on the PSN! I’m legitimately tempted of buying it! This song is truly a banger!!!

2:20 Strings- Mage Squadron Drums- Spare Squadron Piano- Strider Squadron Men’s chorus- Sol Squadron, once your enemies, now on your side to cheer you on All beautifully working together to play Trigger’s theme, which has progressed throughout the story, much like you as a character. This soundtrack is so good

The mention of singular vocalists, especially female ones, reminded me of Black Mesa's OST Specifically the Tracks made for Xen, like "Transcendent" "Internal Conflict" and "Ascension" If I remember correctly, the composers wife did the vocals (Joel and Kala Nielsen if memory serves me right) Either way, big reccommend from me for Black Mesa's soundtrack. Especially the Xen related tracks have a very ethereal and alien-like feeling to them

Hush is legit the duel of fates of Ace Combat imo. It’s played over a fight between Trigger and two drones named Hugin and Munin who are attempting to use the Space Elevator to transmit data to manufacture more of themselves. This song then leads into probably one of the most existentially terryifing osts in any video game I’ve ever played called Space Elevator.

I cannot wait to see you play through Ace Combat 7. I hope I have the chance to see it live.

Coming back to this because I realised something. Lots of people by now know the story of Daredevil's creation, namely that the game was behind schedule but the director still felt like that mission was lacking an emotional punch so he called up Kobayashi and said to make one gut punch of a track. If that's the case then that potentially means that Daredevil was composed/arranged AFTER Hush. To me this makes both pieces even better not only because of the emotional impact Hush has, but because Kobayashi had to keep that in mind while doing Daredevil to both evoke that feeling of chaos and maintain a different feeling of tension for the final mission. Daredevil is the craziness of doing what people thought was impossible. Hush is all of humanity uniting in prayer behind YOU because losing means extinction.

We were waiting for AC7 for so long....Thx Marco ♡

There's an excellent comment on the video for Daredevil that says about stages in the song symbolising the battle it goes along with, really leans into the battle going either way as it progresses, and its just such a fantastic track on its own, loved to see you talk about it.

big hype to marvel at the rest of the soundtrack when we actually get to see marco fly an aircraft and gun down some bogies

It’s funny, a lot of people ask me why I have so many soundtracks instead of regular group albums in my vinyl collection, but there’s something about just sitting and listening to a track like this in isolation of the gameplay, while also having your expectations and high points attached to the memories you forged playing it. Idk if I’m just overly sensitive but honestly tracks like these with the highs of the vocals make me want to tear up every time. It’s almost otherworldly music that just stirs so many emotions in me.

Its so good its like we battle for our live for more precise we battle for our lllove on we protect someone dear to us and the music plays like if not us who will fought then who else we must stand our ground ❤❤❤❤ love it marco hope you chanel will grow more and more

Hey! More Ace combat. Im really excited for your stream for this game, and Im sure it’ll be fun. Good luck on the second part on mission 8 though 😉

when i was playing the last mission my self i cant even focus on the gameplay the music is just so fucking good and emotional goddamn this game is so fucking good

I remember recommending you listen to "Hush" all the way back when you first reacted to Daredevil. I am glad that you finally reacted to it. Those final sections of it are magnificent in my opinion.

Thanks for reviewing Ace Combat music again!

To me, Hush is more muted and Synthy to reflect your current enemy, Autonomous Drones. In Archange, it's a grand battle against a legend, in Daredevil it's an epic set piece, and in Hush it's putting down the last artificial pilots to prevent it from spreading and restarting the war.

I love Hush. It’s my second favourite of all the tracks that use AC7’s motif (only beaten by Battle for Farbanti. Daredevil takes third place) It’s sounds dire, but the buildup of the main theme feels like it’s cheering you on. Almost as if it’s telling you ‘You’re the Three Strikes, you can do this’.

Man, I remember playing the AC7 after work once. Got to the last level at 2am, I was sleep deprived and tired but I couldn't put the game down on that level. Hush perfectly encapsulates the desperation of needing to win

I'd love to hear your musical analysis of Pyre's OST. I admire it overall, just like I admire all of Supergiant Games' OSTs, but in this one I'd love to see your analysis specifically of the Never to Return track. There's 9 versions of it - one for the player's group of characters, and the rest for other teams (most of which have a single named character). Figuring out what each team is like would be kind of like working out what the League's champions are like based on their musical themes, so I'd be excited to watch your reaction to Never to Return. There's an excellent mix of all nine versions of the song put together by a youtube named Gorfinhofin, but you could also listen to them one-by-one if you'd feel like it, search for the Black Mandolin album if you want the individual tracks.

Hush is a music equivalent of the question, Who would win: - An A.I. controlling jets fighting to survive and upload itself to the network. - Humans united in the middle of ongoing war, after realizing they need to save humanity.

I really loved the final mission in Ace Combat 7. 1 squadron made up of the best Ace's from 2 opposite nations vs 2 of the most advanced AI piloted drones ever built. Man it was such a power trip

Long ago, there was a brave old knight whom no one could defeat. One day he was training with a warrior on the street. That warrior had something powerful about him that made him different from any warrior he had ever beaten. The old knight was afraid that his skills would weaken, so he went to see an alchemist. The alchemist offered to sharpen his equipment and received his swordsmanship skills in return. He wanted to create a tin robot that could protect the village against monsters. Every time the old knight visited the alchemist, the tin robot became stronger. People were afraid. “What if they get stronger and try to harm us later?” The alchemist didn't say anything, as if to tell him not to worry, and he continued to concentrate on his tin robot. Eventually, one day, the tin robot started burning down the village and harming people. A warrior who had competed with an old knight saw the village burning and hurried into the village. He fought and won against all the tin robots there. He left the alchemist and only one tin robot who ran away somewhere. The warrior became the village hero, and his rumor spread to neighboring villages. After hearing about him, many warriors came to fight him, and finally an old knight who had competed with him before and drew with him came to see him. The old knight and warrior fought fiercely, knowing that it would be their last duel. Under a very bright and dazzling sun. In the end, the warrior won and the old knight, wounded, went to see the alchemist. The alchemist said. “If you really want to beat him, you will need not only your swordsmanship but also your heart. Do you really want to beat him?” The old knight nodded his head in silence, knowing that his life would now come to an end. The alchemist divided his one tin robot into two and created two tin robots using the old knight's swordsmanship skills and even his heart. He wanted to protect the path to heaven, a place where all humanity in the world could live in peace, a place stained with the blood of those killed by tin robots. The bravest old knight in the world eventually became two angels who guard heaven and guarded the road to heaven. To lead all mankind to a blood-stained heaven. The warrior who once competed with the old knight now reveals his true self, discovers everything, becomes a devil, and begins hunting down the two angels. He had numerous warriors following him. "Hush"

Usually I listen to Magic Spear I & II while doing intense work.

If you ever want to check out AC7, and I bet you do, I would highly recommend asking someone to get Ace Combat 5: The Unsung War set up for you. Out of the PS2 trilogy (considered the best games in the series, AC4, AC5, and ACZero), AC5 is treated more like a movie, one that you are taking part in, one of hardship, with an AMAZING soundtrack (If you remember listening to "The Unsung War"). A lot of other people might recommend Zero, and if you had the time to check out that one too, I also recommend it, especially for the very unique spanish soundtrack. But please do check out AC5 if you have the time, it has by far my favorite OST of all time. I hope to see more AC tracks in the future! Love the content, as always.

That Melody, the soaring vocal that you hear in both pieces, is what I consider to be the Ace Combat Melody. It’s in many if not all of the games and always brings the emotions forward for me. So much so that any time I’m flying, that is often the theme I hear… the theme of the sky (for me).

This is probably one of my favorite tracks from a game ever. You kind of feel this push and pull between Trigger and the drones with a sense of uncertainty from Trigger, symbolized by the almost robotic and harsh tones taking the lead, but as he gains some ground you have a gentle melody pushing back against the abrasiveness of before, becoming more and more prevalent and ultimately becoming the focus of the track.

How did I miss the video? I recommended this a while ago

I love the descending ostinato of the strings on the back half of Daredevil. Allows the piece to go bombastic without going over the top. Such smart decision making.

If you listen AC's ost ingame with fighting in the sky, it gets even better. Trust me.

oooooh, I've been waiting for this one! you know how much I love ace combat!

Ace combat always has good music, in every game, its almost like a rule and as always amazing way to analyze the meaning of the songs. Some recommendations of songs from ace combat and that you might like are: Winter Storm(ac5), Sound embrace and war-torn radiance (acx2) these 2 go one after the other, to be honest these songs are a little bit underrated and are some of my favorites too

When I tell you that I just started moving my hands like an orchestra director when listening to hush ( and I have listened to the whole soundtrack countless times). I need an ace combat 8 just for the new sound track that Kobayashi will create.

Ahhh these song when there was a final fight against the 2 advance drones Hugin and Munin. Those things so manoeuvrable that can shoot lasers beams

Holy shit! I was the one who suggested it! I know you said you’d make the video, but now that I’ve finally seen it, damn! It makes me happy to know you were able to appreciate Hush. To copy-paste the comment I made on the other video: “Daredevil” is the penultimate track, with “Hush” being the very last orchestral song of the game. I know I’m six months late but I’d seriously recommend listening to Hush, it’s got far more vocals, and is designed to sound like the closing battle; the one to end them all. If anything, I’d say it’s better. It incorporates the main motif you hear in the first mission into it, but this time, something is wrong and unnatural. It sounds as if the motif is weak and the melody is straining itself to “catch up” to the drums, with multiple horns sounding throughout. The unnatural sound of these horns is oppressive, signifying the move into the technological era of drones, with human pilots struggling to catch up in a similar fashion to that of the theme. However, as the song progresses, we then hear the main motif again, but this time in a powerful, emotional form . Strings, broken chords, a full choir and even the once oppressive drums shifting to join the “side” of the music you associate with your character most, it represents humanity and their unique identity, undying passion and enduring spirit, one that no machine can replicate or something even come close to amounting to. It is beauty in its purest form.

"Does the color of the sky mean anything to you ?"

Something you might not quite realize about AC music is that it's not just about the situations or the people involved. It's about the airplanes, too. That all of this feeling comes first from a dearly romantic place for airplanes, that they are more than just machines. They are living, divine creatures, and the union between pilot and airplane is just as noble and celebrated as the union between horse and rider. That these are divine steeds carrying the will of everyone involved in these enormous conflicts with the deadliest powers. That above every cataclysmic foe, there is the Ace and his Wings. This music could not be composed without the composer first holding that idea in the center of his mind. Star Trek music has a similar feeling about its ships and star bases. You should take a listen to DS9's theme sometime.

This soundtrack always give me excitement to the point it gave me shivers down my spine

I know I am a bit late but I'd like to mention something I haven't seen anyone else bring up (spoilers): The Male choir and the Female choir are used to represent Sol Squadron and the Player Squadrons respectively. In the song Archange you can hear them directly competing, whereas in Hush they are taking turns in the spotlight, playing the same motif. Pretty cool representation of the story there. This rule is broken in the DLC missions, where both choirs are basically switching sides and unsure of who they represent.

Every time you hear the big trumpet sound in daredevil and in Hush is the sound or leivmotif of the IA , the enemy , is the sound of the IA atacking and striking planes , is the sound of danger and it sound in every song of the game who have at least 1 drone

My favourite tracks from Ace 7 are: Hush Alicorn Archange Daredevil There's really not much between them though, they're all fantastic and join the likes of Unsung War, Agnus Dei, Zero among others. As a side note: I also absolutely love Morceaux from Ace Combat 3 (basically just a Drakengard track that got lost).

Would love to have a video on Werewolf from AC7 one day. I think with the context of the mission it’s one of the best songs in the game.

16:00 il momento in cui si disattiva lo scudo all'arsenal bird e tutti cominiciano a spargli contro... ❤❤

Theyre both awesome pieces of art, daredevil is the epic badass moment where youre sure youre gonna win with that beat drop, but hush is like a sad, gray song, you can hear the drones' sounds (whirring all that) but then you get the human choir symbolizing hope, then back to the dark gritty part. THEN the choir comes back with more power and so on, i swear AC OST is so good.

I don't know if you guys noticed but for a bit there in the high vocals part after the beatdrop the vocals where done by trompets Marco didn't comment on it but I don't know in one way or another if he noticed or tought to mention it I think it is another imaginative way that in the song you take Soprano out and give the Orchestra more places to shine

I mean without spoiling it the fact that he said that that part sounds like " I'm back and I'm going to kick your ass" I don't remember if he's at least watched footage of the mission, but that is quite possibly the most spot on description

I love how much you enjoy it😄

What i love from Hush is that part that its pretty obvious they took from the Armageddon soundtrack, when the shuttles take off, such an amazing composition!

Important to note, the male choir melody you pointed out is actually the motif of the main theme that appears throughout the soundtrack

This is what i've been waiting for from this channel! though there's a lot more ace combat and project wingman to go. I wonder if you'd also be interested in some of the remixes? RU-vid user Lucas Ricciotti does some spectacular ones.
