My Ko-Fi - ko-fi.com/retrovex (Includes Shop + Donations) Here's my big thank you shout out to everyone who donated so far 💜 at 5:30 I decided not to add any engine sound effects as I thought it'd distract from the nostalgic feeling, but let me know if next time you'd like more sounds on top of music! This one has took me quite some time and work to do, a lot of transitions and merging, making sure everything connects perfectly, I hope you'll enjoy this little journey we are headed on!

I like to think there's a little computer happily blasting through space with his own tiny rocket!

you mean the Voyager space probes? :3

Honestly, I prefer the old PCs of the past. It was a much more innocent and imaginative time. I look back on those days happily.

Same here. Grew up with Windows 95, 98, then XP in my most formative years. Building pokemon/dbz fan sites with basic HTML as a 3rd grader while most of my school teachers didn't even know how to access the internet yet.

I thought I'd heard every variety of ambient soundscape, but you've hit on something really original with this series. Keep them coming!

Probably to a new grassy blissful world if I had to guess where this is leading to.... Please tell me we are skipping windows ME.

I remember buying gaming and computer magazines every month and spending hours reading the reviews while looking at the beautiful pictures and wondering what it would be like to possess all these incredible pieces of software. 30 years later, I have finally caught up with the reviews

Today I had a dream that I was sent on a space mission from NASA. Now I know what would be my soundtrack if it was true.

These soundscapes are great. If I've got some pressure or stress, these really calm my mind. I can listen to them over and over again.

Some old school flying toasters :) Nostalgic Soundscapes OS9 coming?? :D

Incredible work Retrovex, you've done it again! My childhood flashed before my eyes. I love how you've managed to take the NT startup sound and create something completely unique. Love the unique and imaginative visuals, those toasters are super cute!

​@@RetrovexAmbient Oh man, the answer to that question is "it's complicated" 😅 My first Windows was 95 though, back when the Start menu was new and exciting 😄

After Dark and classic Windows! What a treat!

Loving the vibes! Reminds me of when computers were just babies 🥹😭

I really like these being a 90's kid really brings me back.

As someone that practically enjoys older Windows in today's environment, despite their outdated state and all, first you've drawn me in with 95 being relatable, then it was 98 to fly over my expectations completely and now this NT(4) one... Well played - you have mastered a New Technology for ambience. Especially looking towards XP, but we still have 2000 (and, indirectly, ME) first. 🖖

The sounds are absolutely fantastic, and the fly computer looks so out of place in the endless void of space. 😂 Well done. 👍

Uhhh... Obscura! Obscura!! Ya, those flying toasters did made me laugh, but this is a nice ambient for me to study and relax with. Let's see how you do to remix NT 5.0 (Beta 2)'s startup tune!

This is an amazing antidepressant I never knew existed until today. Nostalgia and serenity expertly blended. Thank you!

I love your approach here. I can't wait until Windows XP.

I been following the story, first the PC was in the ocean, then it flew, now its wandering around space. Adds extra nostalgia to the themes. Thank you so much for your work, waiting for the rest of the series.

A great contribution for people who misses the good times....

Yet another amazing soundscape! 💜 I am glad I was able to attend the live premiere! ✨

PC Speaker Ambiance when haha nice one!

Reminds me of Spore! Especially the main menu theme.

I have no idea how you create these things, but they are incredibly beautiful, and pay a true homage to each operating system (I especially love that with NT, you took it out into an ethereal outer space since its default wallpaper/startup screen shows the stars).

Hi, I just recently watched your videos. And I really like this theme with retro windows. And how you use this design and how creative and peaceful it is😍

Perfect mood

If you do plan to make all of the Windows startup sounds as ambient music, I'd be especially impressed with anything you'd come up with starting with Windows Vista/7.

Holy mother of Joeseph, as if the 95 and 98 ones didn’t make me want to levitate to the heavens more! Listening to this soundscape on Skullcandy Crusher Evos on maximum bass is an ethereal listening experience that words cannot match. Wondrous work!

I'm so glad I found your channel! It's very inspiring. Great episode!

This looks/feels like a loading screen from some cool ass PS2 game

Woohoooo leeets goooo!!!

Quite a journey

I'm a big fan of your ambient bud, great music, even without anything related to windows. Fantastic, keep it up, god bless you mwah xoxo

SO COOL!!

These soundcapes are are really cool. Ithink for me the XP one will hit the hardest. Although my first computer was win95 and upgraded to 98, I can't really remember the system sounds very well from them and I missed NT entirely :-(

Thanks again for this gift. I wonder if your next animation will show the computer arriving to some planet.

Did any kids actually grow up with NT, or was it just something their parents used at work? Also, great job!

dude you rock. you deserve more views and subs

Really liked the 95 and 98 pieces both for the nostalgia angle and the great ambient tracks. The NT track has less nostalgia to it, but still holds up great as an ambient piece!

Less Nostalgia? Mayhaps for you, I oft visited my grandfather's workplace where Windows NT 4.0-based machines were rife from the mid-90's through the early 2000's. Those were true workstations, he ensured a hospital's backup power plant never failed. Those machines were reliable as ever, even as external electric providers weren't!

NT 4.0 came out in 1996. And technically "NT" still exists, it's one of the two Windows' kernel (the other one being 9x, that was on 95, 98 and ME). Win10 and 11 are both NT 10 (officially... in fact they should be NT 6.4)
