  1. The high pitch flute part is actually the harmonic notes played on the violin. They did a live orchestra version during the Chinese New Year celebration programme – Reflection of Spring. Do check them out.

  2. genshin is an open world (gacha) game that takes inspiration on real life regions of the world for the places you travel to and the music you hear amongst each area. liyue is specifically inspired by china. one hundred percent, i'd wanna see you take a crack at scaramouche's boss theme since it has a mix of latin, japanese, and techno sounds all rolled into one.

  3. I've heard lots about this game and my younger brother played it at one point with his friends. I heard music from it here and there.

    This feels like a bright sunny day at 9:00 AM lol, the flute tone reminds me of a random licensed PS1 game. This gives me "start of a new day" vibe. When that bass comes in 2:16 I start to like this song, good chords and the string went crazy with that solo. The section right after is so soothing and reminds me of the past, I don't know how to feel about that since it makes me emotional. This gives me small town vibes where there's nothing but peace and happiness, parts of this give me some real film score vibes especially at the end. This was great and I really like this song, I'll have to listen to it a few more times to see if I want to add it to my collection.

  4. I'd say don't worry about mispronouncing Liyue, there's like…5 different ways the voice actors pronounce it in game nobody knows how to say it right in English lol As for the theme Liyue, I'd say the best leitmotif of it comes with this festival they hold around Chinese New Year called Lantern Rite. You get used to the song "Liyue" and then the Lantern Rite comes along and it's so beautiful and bright and just brings all the feels. It adds more percussion, string instruments and wind instruments. I think the song itself is just called "Lantern Rite"

  5. Someone else alluded to the same thing, but Liyue is where Genshin finally clicked for me.

    The first region and big town of this open world game are kind of generic, and while they come off as extremely impressive for a free-to-play gacha game, it doesn't feel special

    Liyue as a whole feels like, this is it. This game has an identity. It's still mired by all the trappings of free-to-play gacha, but there is love and craftsmanship at play. The flourishes of the geography, the harbour town, the music, and the obvious love for Chinese culture that is expressed through them really comes through.

  6. 9:49 your talk about genshin music is really same with MarcoMeatball who also react to game music include genshin music.
    11:29 it is free to play game but look at the game income, it really is a big game

  7. Actually really close on the pronunciation of Liyue. Far closer than a few of the English voice cast and a majority of the content creators who insist on calling it ‘Leeway’.

  8. I remember walking through the city gates for the first time and hearing this song, it was so magical. People can dislike this game, but the music score is undoubtedly one of the best in the industry. One of the few soundtracks that have brought me to tears.

  9. Imagine walking through a super-lively Chinese-style harbor city with dense cultural flavor to this music – then you got what this plays for!

  10. This tract is basically the background track for the city that goes by the name of the track.

    If you think this one is good, you’re in for a treat when you get to the boss battle songs of this game.

  11. Let's try a Sumeru symphony live performance and Realm of Tranquil Eternity: Inazuma Live Symphony Performance. This is best genshin music u can find

  12. To give a little bit of background for this theme, Genshin's world is split up into 7 main regions, each of which represents a different real world culture. The nation of Liyue draws inspiration from China, and thus, uses several traditional Chinese instruments. This also means that the OSTs of the other regions use their respective culture's instruments as well (ie: the latest region, Sumeru, uses various Indian and Egyptian instrumentation. It all leads to a very diverse sounding OST without it sounding disparate.

  13. One of my favorite Genshin Impact OST is called "Lovers' Oath". It's not often recommended by anyone because it's considered more of a meme among the community imo. But I really love that soundtrack, more so after I played the game and know more about the characters involved. I hope you get to listen to it one day.

  14. Liyue is and will always be the best city in Genshin. Even tho the later stories are great but I feel like all of the best and hypest moment was in Liyue

  15. Genshin is my first gacha game and I totally love it. Although I haven't spend anything, I still very satisfied with characters I pull after every 2-3 months lol. Also, I hope you check out sumeru and and it's desert OSTs. They are a total banger.
