Nothing comes close to peak Spyro music as the three homeworlds’ music: they put you in a relaxed state of mind after a long jumping and charging around the levels like few other games out there. Simple, yet so powerful!

Something really interesting about them is they're three songs Copeland didn't "compose" as such. All three are just extended and warped samples from Distorted Reality that clearly fit the bill well :3

Who needs Nine Inch Nails or Skinny Puppy when you have the industrial icon Spyro 2 Hurricos theme. Love the tier lists and the appreciation for the ambient homeworld themes!!! Sad I missed this one live, but it gave me a good excuse to listen through this video

Autumn Plains the banger No lie though, back then it hit me even as a kid. But the ambience of the three homeworlds influenced my liking of ambient music even now as a 29 year old.

Love the Spyro music in all 3 games. I'd love a breakdown of the Spyro 3 music in the future.

Aquaria Towers is one of my favorites because the beginning of the track has this feeling of descending down into the depths and then the RELEASE is the beauty of the underwater city and charging around. I don't know if that descending, quiet beginning was intentional but i love the restraint.

Spyro 2 is peak video game music i really love how it all fits his walk cycle and his floaty but still bad ass nature

big fan of the Dayo music lists, the dude knows so much about music and I feel like I'm learning something while listening to banging tunes

The homeworlds theme music evokes amazement. It really goes well with how I felt the first time when I travelled to a new homeworld as a young kid. Awe-inspired and excited about the new levels!

Christmas came early!

Robotica Farms is probably my favorite Spyro track. Absolutely LOVE when that beat kicks in at the heart of the track.

The "neeeorgh" in Magma Cone just always reminds me how much more I prefer the monster screeches in Crystal Island

What I like the most about Skelos Badlands is the change it undergoes for the chorusses - the primary bridge between them (the more ambient part with the cold synth) makes for a great climax; the first chorus is a bit wonky and silly, but still groovy - and the second chorus is just downright epic, with the bassline and organ kicking in, love that part so much

Summer Forest. ❤ 🌅 Words cannot describe how much this track means to me. At eight years old, I lost myself in the beauty that was this homeworld. My Grandma was worried I'd been playing too long: I begged her for ten more minutes, to which she reluctantly obliged. I put down my controller, sat and just listened. I was totally swept away. I escaped to a different, and magical place. At that moment, I knew that gaming would forever have an impact on my life. It wasn't just controlling the character, it was escaping. It's been a love that's lasted a lifetime. ❤

Love hearing you talk about this kind of stuff, especially thanks to your music background

awesome tierlist wouldn't change a thing except I'd make a tier above s tier called "magma cone tier" and put magma cone there

Yes! Love the tierlists Dayo! Cheers from Michigan!

Magma cone is my absolute favorite song from Spyro 2! That funky bassline always gets my head noddin'

love these music tierlists of yours keep it up dayo 🙌🏼

I remember just leaving the Autumn Plains level on my little tv in my room when I was 11 when there was no KZread just so I could listen to it doing my homework, Pure S tier.

Ok

I really enjoyed this. Most of the time when people do tier lists they feel a little... lacklustre, maybe? It felt cool to have you spend so much time talking about and enjoying each track before placing them.

amazing tier list 💜💜 can't wait to hear your opinion on bamboo terrace

YEES! HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE

I love when you talk about music Dayo You can really tell you're into it

Probably the best Spyro 2 music imo, is Breeze Harbor, best boss music Gulp, best intro to get me into the game Glimmer

22:07 - 22:55 Hi Dayo! Fellow music major here. I wasn't too sure what the term was either when you first described it. Oblique motion refers to one note staying stagnant while another moves in counterpoint. I think you were right when you said it's a disjunct melody (a melody that moves mostly in leaps rather than steps), the definition matches what you were saying. You're a legend for remembering that! 😎 My brain is so fried, I didn't remember and had to look it up, LOL. 😅 Another great music tier list! I'll be eagerly awaiting your Spyro 3 song ranking. 🎶

Fuckin' love the tier lists my guy. Would love to see more. 🤜🤛

the glimmer theme makes me misty eyed just out of immense nostalgia. solid S tier for me. love this video

Magma Cone and Crystal Glacier are my two favourites from this game. Crystal Glacier is usually always stuck in my head

The beginning of aquaria towers brings me right to subnautica music, they both really nailed the underwater vibes

Just finished the Spyro 3 full playthrough! Hype!

Hurricos is probably my favourite track in the game.

They’ve still got the homeworld theme presets in Omnisphere if anyone’s into sound design kinda stuff. TecFox’s video showing all the samples is super cool

Dayooooooo!! I will say Autumn Plains and Winter Tundra has the best OST! Autumn Plains is truly #1, so simple yet so heavenly-ish. Definitely an S! So nostalgic and so relaxing. Spyro 2 really nailed the ambiance and OST’s, Spyro 1-3 have many good songs but they went all out for the hub worlds in Spyro 2 I noticed

Your tier lists make me so happy and all your opinions are truly based. If i could suggest one, maybe another monster tier list, but the topic would be "most satisfying to kill". Whether it be because they are annoying, or their death animations are satisfying, or whatever

Autumn plains and Fracture hills are the solid S tiers, probably S+++ if were just talking about video games

Loved this video! Copeland seems to love ice levels because I feel Crystal Glacier and Icy Speedway are superb grooves. Most of Winter Tundra's level tracks are pretty forgettable to me, maybe Copeland was getting a bit tired by the end lol

Metropolis has always been one of my favourites. :)

YESSSS - love to hear Dayo's opinion on the superior Spyro soundtrack (;

Q for you, my friend! Thanks for the cool content

Fractured hills bagpipes is A+++ tier, best of all, no competition, no discussion, period. :D

I still have a Yamaha that has similar touch sensitive guitar sounds lol. I love it. The three main hub worlds - music and maps both, are my favorite part of any Spyro game to this day.

My favourite would have to be Colossus, Glimmer and Metropolis for the main levels. For home worlds Summer Forest would be my favourite, probably because I think it was my first Spyro game when I was 5 or 6.

I know it’s been a while since you made this but I’m still waiting for the Spyro 3 tier list

Ohhhhhhhhhhhnnwwwaaauuhhhhhhhhh-nnwooooohhhh-nwaahhhhhh.... One of the problems with Magma Cone is that it's like a reworked Glimmer.

The magma cone noise sounds like they tasted something horible "OH NOOAHH"

My brain without mental illness sounds like Autumn Plains.

Yassss looka my doggos wave

Theres also Ripto’s Arena without the opera singer

Not gonna lie, Magma Cone got a sick beat. It just straight up goes "This is the lava level don't be a clumsy fuck." Sure Fracture Hills got lava too, but this was a much more challenging, hazard ridden level than Hills

I love the dancing pigs in Fracture Hills. In Reignited, they don't dance.

Yay

Also, damn, Ripto gets a D! As a kid, that overly-dramatic feel did it for me, this is the tiny big-bad in the huge-collared cape. It fit. Gulp felt a bit too much for what it was, but I wouldn't swap them. Oh! Also, they omitted the opera singing for the PAL release. Maybe they figured people who might be more exposed to opera wouldn't appreciate the campy use.

Spyro 3!!!

Q Spyro 3 music tier When?!?

Cloud Spires from the 3rd installment already wins S tier rating by me personally you're welcome. So many bangers in the 3rd game, hoping to see a tier list for that at some point , although it does have some repetitive bits as well.

q - spyro 3 list when?

All I gotta say is Glimmer, Idol Springs / Fracture Hills, Hurricos, Aquaria Towers, Crystal Glaciers, Zephr, Magma Cone, Icy Speedway & Metropolis, are beyond S-Tier. They're in a class of there own.
