Thank you for noticing! Some tracks really didn't need much work (eg. Chanson d'Automne), some others needed some adjustments, like the infamous ultra boomy 808 on this one :)

Getting back to the Contact Light again was just... God I cannot even begin to describe how perfect this song is for the final level. The somber beginning really encapsulates the feeling of sifting through the wreckage after a disaster, with the building action as you navigate the violence that's become routine to you, culminating in that final desperate struggle to reach the cockpit as all hell is breaking loose. Hits as hard today as it did 10 years ago.

just bought the vinyl. when this song came on in my first playthrough of returns i was in shock at how good this sounds. it fits perfectly with the game and it is even better than i remember. i saw the vinyl comes with sheet music and i cant wait to make an arrangement of this song on guitar. thank you for ten years of amazing music chris.

This is one of my favorite song of the entire franchise. Contending with it is: They Might as Well be Dead, Once in a Lullaby, Con Lentitud Poderosa, Surface Tension, Chanson d’Automne (I think that’s what it’s called), and The Rain Formerly Known as Purple). Your music is absolutely amazing, and each and every song is just as good the last.

Never in my life have I needed something so much and never known until I received it. Thank you Chris ❤

gotta love the glue on the roach song

Truly remarkable, I have major respect for you and the people that do what you do. Risk of rain (and games as a whole) wouldn't be the same without tracks like coalescence. Thank you for your contributions to this series.

I can't understand just how good this track and Coalescence Returns are. The gameplay of ROR/ROR2/RORR is why people pick it up, but your music is so integral to the series that you're inextricably bound to everyone's fond memories of the games. Thank you for your incredible work you fucking genius.

I just feel the need to say, that the moment i saw RoR Returns released i knew the game was gonna be worth it's salt and got it, even as a complete stranger to the series. I've since sank hours into the game and recently got into the second game as well. You're a composer like no other, Chris. You're the greatest reason that I've met this wonderful experience and precisely what makes it so immaculate in it's presentation. If there's one regret i have in life, it's that i didn't get to grow up with the original game from 2013 like so many others here, even though i had the opportunity. Better late than never, i guess! Thank you for the emotions, and please never stop putting your heart and soul on what you love the most ❤

We may be monsters, but Providence was the catalyst and author of his (and his brother's) own destruction. He was bored and prideful, saw something entering his view that wasn't his and decided to toy with it, to wreck it, to leave it broken and bruised, just because he could. Just goes to show, you always reap what you sow....

​​@@alias588the way I see it, nobody in the story is either good or evil. Sure, there are bad people, there are good in terms of kindness, but their actions and decisions were not justified nor unjustified. If Mithrix had been a little more open to allowing a bit of life, if Providence hadn't felt absolute rage and locked his brother on the Moon, if the Humans didn't take a random path near Petrichor, if Providence hadn't assumed that the Humans were there to free Mithrix, everything would've been alright. The entire series is just a series of unfortunate events

Well, we, as the player, committed planetary genocide...twice over. If you read all the logs, you can see that outside of our interference, Petrichor V enjoys a mostly peaceful existence, with a lot of its life living out content and fulfilled existences. Our presence was a beacon for that world's life, as Providence (and later Mithrix) painted us as targets to be annihilated at all costs. So we made the cost *everything*, and they were made to pay it. From our perspective it's always about survival. From their perspective, we are the fly in the ointment. Under the directive of their creator(s), we cannot be allowed to live, and we cannot allow them to kill us...and so we commit those acts necessary to allow us to leave. Wiping out life, killing gods, leaving a world barren, a moon deleted from space and time. I like how they wrote the story. If I were in the shoes of the survivor(s), I'd likely feel the same way after all was said and done. I'd have survived, but the price of survival would be too great for anyone to pay.

man when I first re-visited contact light in ror returns I immediatly turned up the music volume. Bravo.

glue. glue on da roach.

I really have to say. You just attacked my emotions in positive way. Literally, I love the style how bass percussions rose up. They pierce ma ears like royal capacitor with ten lens-mark's glasses. Coalescence was already perfect before decade, but now. It's truly magnum opus of game soundtrack. I really love both old and new version. Also the coalescence returns too. I can't wait to hear this in game! Horray from korea, for the chris!

I loved risk of rain 2 but ive never been huge on 2d games so I wasnt planning on getting risk of rain returns. Yeah im buying it Chris is a master manipulator with these bomb ass tunes

Congratulations for the great job Chirs! One day I was listening to some random musics on youtube music, and i heard this one and recognizes the style and sayd "Hey, it's similar to the Risk of Rain songs", when i checked you were the author, your style is distinct and unique. Nowadays i still hear your musics when I'm working ,driving or just relaxing. Thank you for one of the bests music experiences of my life. This game was a part of my childhood, and I'm happy to see that you are still working with it, and hope it continues this way.

SO glad you are here for Risk Of Rain Returns!

Finishing the game and hearing this almost made me cry ngl. Awesome game and incredible music

I'm fairly new to the RoR franchise, I started playing 2 a little before Returns released. But let me just say that now, having played both 2 and Returns, that these games are very special to me, and your music is a huge part of that. Nothing will beat the first time I made it to the Contact Light with this track playing, and I regularly listen to the soundtracks on my own time. I guess this is my weird way of saying thank you, and I hope you keep making bangers like this one!

What a great song with a very emotionally moving buildup!!

Having a ton of fun listening to original and remaster to hear the difference from then and now. Thank you for your hard work as always.

An incredible being who have a prophecy to furfill. The Legend himself Chris Christodoulou.

holy crap this dudes music is fricking electric

The layering on this song is so breathtakingly dynamic. Thank you, Chris, for this sonic feast.

The perfect song... You're the man Chris!

"And his music was Electric 🎸"

I still remember conversing with you about this song years ago during the original release! Still one of my favorite tracks and the music tactic you used for the constant build up is still so satisfying. 10/10 still one of my favorite composers.

One of the best things I've ever heard, thankyou!!

See, what's really interesting is how I relate to commando in the visuals, because even though 500 enemies are slowly approaching me to anihilate me, I'm vibing to the incredible music

I could explain why this song is special to me or why it makes me feel the way it does but to be honest that’s already been said. I just want to thank you Chris.

Chris, you just know EXACTLY how to make your music fire every neuron in my brain, man. This never gets old!

This song really coalesces in my heart.

This song has fueled my willpower sinceIi first heard it. I love how it tells a story of someone who has been in really tough times but is not willing to give up yet. It really gets that feeling of pure hopefulness, and thats why it has a really deep emotional connection to me. Thank you.

Coalescence is one of those songs that will always make me tear up when I hear it, and I don't even have any sorta experience to tie it too, aside from the game itself- hearing it during that last stage, knowing something didn't feel quite right.. I had to plug in my headphones just to make sure Coalescence was the only thing I could hear

Thank you so much.

Noooo im crying again man ❤

I only just started playing ror back in March of this year and I just wanna say, the music was one of the biggest factors for me coming back for more. Can’t think of anything to say that hasn’t been said already but on behalf of me and all my friends who love ror, thank you Chris.

Such an amazing experience. Going through it all again after almost 10 years for me is something truly special. Thank you Chris, love ya

If any of you ever feel useless, just remember that risk of rain has an option to turn off the music.

One of my favourite video game songs of all time. Fantastic work - well done.
