If you're seeing this in the future, I wanted to upload a few songs to celebrate the release of Xenoblade Chronicles 3 that came out 7/29/22 - These games and this music have impacted so many people. The diversity and power of this music is seriously so cool and I'm glad to be listening to this. Can't wait to hear what Xenoblade Chronicles 3 has in store in terms of music.

I always love this specific moment at 3:27, when most of the instruments goes quiet in preparation for the guitar drop, it was a little more present in the original version of the song, but the Definitive Edition version just shreds so much harder that it is a no brainer.

@Drewtendo 2 года назад

100% agree! The only other thing I liked about the original is the drum break down at the very end just as it's about to loop.

@jpegwarrior5431 2 года назад

Happy to hear you've started playing XCDE. I hope you enjoy the game! Definitely agree on this being one of those battle themes you can hear forever, I think that's something the series in general does really well. XC2's first battle theme is one of my favorite tracks in the series for that reason, it's the kind of song that i can hear for a couple hundred hours and still get pumped for.

@amaramist_ 2 года назад

MORE XENOBLADE CONTENT WOOOOOOOO I really love Mechanical Rhythm. The sheer intensity fits the point of the story it plays in like a glove and it’s a blast to listen to even outside of the game. I do not know how the same people who made Engage the Enemy made this, but I sure as hell ain’t complaining!

If you are a sidequest person, be sure to check the different hours of the day. I usually check 5-6am, before noon, 3pm, sunset, 9pm, and 1am. That will usually ensure that you get all the sidequests Enel also has tons of good guides out there

@RadicalCapitol 2 года назад

One of the few Xenoblade songs that have lyrics is "Beyond the Sky". It's really beautiful and I really recommend it!

HEEEELLLL YEEEEEEAAAAAAAH Was not expecting this. Fricking awesome mix of heavy metal and classical. Just headbanging and gracefulness actually went really well together lol. Game music really does show a side of magical music we never really see anywhere else.

@KAlZER0 2 года назад

1:42 You're actually right! It indeed has to do with what you said, however I won't tell you exactly what is it considering you're already playing the game so that you can experience it for yourself

@ilavain 2 года назад

I hope you enjoy the game! XC1 is truly a special game and everyone should at least experience the story of it. If you are still unspoiled, you will cry, cry, laugh and get so so hyped at every little turn. I found you thanks to your XC reactions and I will continue watching, since your insight is something rarely seen on youtube.

@shatteredsentient5321 Год назад

I played this game on the Wii. Was a crazy game for the trash that was the Wii.

@tamalemuncher789 2 года назад

This track certainly sets the tone for the part of the story you're at when you hear it. Not only is it a banger, but it also has such a beautiful combination of instruments at play. I can see what you mean with the main part feeling mechanical, and the strings kinda trying to dominate with the humanity... Honestly, it feels like the homs are pushing back against the mechanical pressure

@Koda_Grey 2 года назад

0:59 I LOVE when the violins soar in. Gets my adrenaline flowing and sounds so powerful. Favourite part of the song. Such a fun battle theme.

@slagathor91 2 года назад

So glad to hear you started playing the game again! Excited for you to work your way through the series.

@loganrussell3064 2 года назад

It is in fact a battle theme, but that's all I'll say. It's a damn badass one tho lmao

@valrend7374 2 года назад

I fell in love with Xenoblade with the 3D port on the 3DS years ago, I’m so happy you’ll be able to experience this brilliant story, I hope you enjoy it.

Hands down, my favorite battle theme from Xenoblade Chronicles. Possibly only rivaled by “Unfinished Battle”

@recht_voor_zijn_raap5506 2 года назад

Xenoblade Chronicles are some of the best JRPGs ever and both have a legendary soundtrack.. Can't wait for part 3 this friday and the soundtrack is one of those things I'm really looking forward to. That and its absolute stellar world design, characters and story of course

@MarcoMeatball 2 года назад

@ryanegan4243 2 года назад

I’m so glad you’ve finally listened to this one! Undoubtedly one of the best themes from the game, it’s a theme you won’t forget for a very long time. Would love to also see your reaction to either “An Obstacle in our Path” or “The God Slaying Sword” if you do, a couple more of my personal favorites from the game

@Pap3rMoon 2 года назад

Mechanical Rhythm is one of my favorite piece in the Xenoblade saga, heck. In any video game really. It's fast, it's thrilling, it's fun. It's like being in the heat of the battle itself. It's so engrossing and engaging I look forward to whenever it plays in XCDE. Fun video as always dood!

@kellyh7202 2 года назад

I cannot wait to hear the music in Xenoblade 3! Also, I would love a video where you break down your actual top 10 video game soundtracks.

@MarcoMeatball 2 года назад

That's a great idea actually. WIll be a long video :)

@CarkeysLive 2 года назад

So this is a late game standard battle theme in Xenoblade 1, and due to how that game handles standard battles, this plays when you start a fight with the upper hand. If instead you're ambushed, the song "Irregular Bounce"/"Irregular Bound" plays. That song is an equally fantastic metal/funk fusion song that gets pretty overshadowed by Mechanical Rhythm. It's definitely worth a listen, but I would say that applies to most songs in the Xenoblade OSTs.

@CarkeysLive 2 года назад

Also, the equivalent of this song for Xenoblade 2 would be "Still, Move Forward!" It has quite a few similarities, but leans more heavily into synthetic sounds.

@Nonnominon 2 года назад

Yay more Xenoblade!! the music in the Xenoblade series never fails to give that exciting feeling of mix emotions. Its just good, no complains just good food to consume (even in Xenoblade Chronicles X with its sci-fi kind of music).

@nighttyger3397 2 года назад

“I feel like this is about the Monado, or the Mechon, or a battle, or someone who wields the Monado, or it’s some sort of turning point in the game-“ You are somehow simultaneously correct about all of these things! At least, in very broad strokes XD have fun finding out!

@JackofNothingess 2 года назад

I don't play Xenoblade, but this piece knocks it out of the park, through the parking lot, and into the stratosphere. Amazing and epic!

@cyberrb25 2 года назад

I've read a couple texts about Xenoblade 3, and in the last one (the July 27th one), they do talk a bit about the music. And they say that the flutes they have in the tracks, they had two of them custom-made and played them for the tracks. Yasunori Mitsuda, who suggested making them, is a madman.

@jakelawrence6618 2 года назад

If thought MR was kick ass you have to listen to Zanza the divine. In my opinion it’s the best song in DE. There’s also the fogbeast theme and despair over animus and who knows what 3 will be adding. Yeah this series has some fantastic music

@ijustsawthat 2 года назад

Notice the usage of bells as instruments. It's very subtle on this one, but in others you will hear them way more.

@yarion4774 2 года назад

Damn, I didn't remember that track but the memories are coming back. It's so fire.

@laggalot1012 2 года назад

Mechanical Rhythm is such a jam! I'm personally very fond of the way in which it sounds like it loops the first time (at about 3:20 in this video), but it actually hasn't yet, so then the drop happens again (around 3:49 in this video) and it blows you away by going even harder than the first go-around. Mechanical Rhythm is super intense, but not uncontrolled. It's wonderful.

You should try listening to some tracks from Final Fantasy 13. Despite the mostly negative opinions that people have about this game, it's undeniable that the OST is amazing and very unique when compared to the rest of the Final Fantasy games. I'd recommend tracks such as Will to Fight, The Gapra Whitewood, Lightning's Theme, Oerba Village (from ff13-2), and Paradigm Shift (from ff13-2). Love the content, keep it up!

I really need to get off my backside and finish XC1; I like the story, music, and characters, but it's been difficult for me to utilize the battle mechanics properly, and it honestly doesn't really feel "fun" to play. Anyway, glad to see you covering this soundtrack; it really is one of, if not THE, best aspects of the game.

@nb_nic 2 года назад

the biggest tip I can give for the first game is to always be utilizing break and topple, in the first game if you keep using topple arts on a toppled enemy the timer just keeps stacking, and enemies take more damage while toppled so it'll make battles faster and easier since they're on the ground. also don't let the AI try to control Melia lol

I'd argue both versions of the soundtrack are phenominal. Subtle differences here and there. But the difference is very noticeable. Check this same song out in the OG ost and compare it. I swear its not nostalgia. I usually switch the OST to OG when this song first appears. Because by then, you get a GREAT taste of both halves, no matter what you're doing.

Like this track way too crazy on the percussion and the guitar solos and other sounds are overshadowed because of this. Just listen to the original version: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Q0W0VyaoZzY.html It's so much cleaner and balanced.
