I've never found anyone who could go so in depth to some of my favorite albums. You're review is a blessing dude. It makes me excited again to learn music.

@ChristopherSiu 3 года назад

That’s awesome man. Thanks so much. Looking forward to checking out V2!

@andrewfitzgerald4530 3 года назад

Thank you for reacting to this, not many people react to Two Steps From Hell, and even fewer people react to Thomas Bergersen's pieces, so I really appreciate you reacting to this entire first part of this album, this was a great analysis, please, if you get the chance I would love to see you react to part 2, which is out now

@ChristopherSiu 3 года назад

Thanks for watching! Will definitely do chapter 2 when it’s all out on RU-vid.

@FlavienB 3 года назад

@@ChristopherSiu Can't wait for that :) I know you mean that you'll wait because then the content ID won't censor your video, but just so that you know, it will be way better if you listen to the album on spotify, because on youtube, some tracks seem to be shortened in a weird way which doesn't really show the full picture. I'm referencing to one track in particular that was uploaded just few days ago, and was cut by half of its length ! but it might be the case for other ones too, so yeah, just so that you know :)

Awesome reaction/review. Thomas Bergersen is a true genius and an incredible composer. His music always packs such a punch whatever theme he happens to be going for. You should check out some of his other work as well. I highly recommend Sun. It's such an awesome album and was my favorite music album of all time until Humanity: Chapter I stole it's spot. Also, I don't know if anyone else has mentioned this yet, but yes, this album is recorded with a real choir and orchestra

@ChristopherSiu 3 года назад

Lovely. Thank you!

@@ChristopherSiu Humanity Chapter II is now on Extreme Music, I think that means that you can upload the songs on youtube with permission from the artist

@monemusic1428 3 года назад

@@koen2715 TSFH blocks videos sharing their music until it's been uploaded to the main "Two Steps From Hell" youtube channel. Extreme Music only allows you to purchase a license to use the music and claim ad revenue. He could theoretically buy one and then be exempt from the video being taken down, but they can be ridiculously expensive. As far as I know they're sold on a per track basis, so he'd have to buy each individual one which is kind of absurd for something like this. It's way more reasonable to just wait a couple more months.

@capncocoa 3 года назад

If there's one thing that irks me about this album, it's the naming scheme for Beautiful People (EDM Mashup). Despite the name, it's not an alternate variant of Beautiful People-it's actually this awesome 9min mashup of all the other songs in the album! Hopefully you got to listen to it off camera!

"Orbital" is a different version of his previous song "In Orbit". The vocals are literally from it. "In Orbit" is more poppy, I think, but I still love them both.

This is the most in-depth analysis of Thomas Bergersen I've seen, really good stuff! I've been a fan of TSFH for many years now, and I love seeing how more and more people are learning about this music lately. Would love to hear your thoughts on his tracks "Emerald Princess" (Bergersen's tribute to Avicii) and "Return to Sender" (one of his proudest pieces and my personal favorite).

@@taufanaugusta8884 Probably the best indicator that the block has been lifted is when autogenerated uploads appear, because afaik they are blocked just as user uploads are. Recently I've read that Ch II uploads are still blocked and I haven't seen any non official uploads of it either. No idea why they still block it though. Maybe they forgot to lift it, just as they sometimes forget to block uploads and then suddenly copyright strike everyone who had uploaded, which happened to Chris too.
