Team Fortress 2 Uses the Same Bass Line EVERYWHERE

6:09 Fun fact; you can kind of play that scale on the character select screen, each character has a different guitar note

[ItsLightless]

Please please PLEASE look at the Spy's theme "Right Behind You" if you ever revisit TF2. That song is so menacing in a field full of goofy scores.

There's just something so contagious about Charles getting excited by music

TF2 has a special place in my heart as a semi-retired gmod shitposter, soundtrack lives rent free in my head from the hours I spent feeding the enemy team on Harvest

[JCfromJohto]

I cant unhear the dialogue with “Intruder Alert”

“Red Spy is in the base!”

[LiefTheBeef]

I never thought TF2 would be on this channel but it’s definitely deserved

[ZaccoOfficial]

The TF2 soundtrack, along with the game, is a timeless masterpiece.

11:30 I just realized they actually timed the medic's actions to the music! When he pushes up his glasses and flips the switch on his medigun, it's perfectly on beat.

It's interesting how an FPS where the music is rarely heard outside of the main menu has one of the greatest soundtracks of all time.

I know correlation isn't causation, but all of the really cool youtubers end up being fans of TF2.

Fun fact: the class choosing sound effect in the class selection screen is literally the harmonic scale of E Minor, for a guitar.

I love the video, but Im so mad you didn’t mention the saxophone solo in the Medic theme song, The fact that the soloist is completely being over shadowed by everyone else created the perfect chaotic atmosphere of the Medic himself

[mmmmsoup]

I can't tell you how much I longed to see someone of your musical caliber finally, appreciate the amazing music thate is this score. Shame you can't hear a bit more of it in the game.

Valve's music during this time period was astounding. The music in L4D and L4D2 were fantastic, the heavy percussion that would build upon hoards of zombies added to the confusion and fear that you felt trying to survive.

[doktorkritzisch]

YES! He finally covered it! The best video game of all time.

[Hodoodle]

12:52 I can't tell if that was intentional but that was a spot on impression.

[yumi.]

it's insane how the soundtrack perfectly encapsulates the gameplay in every way possible, the chaos of the big band with the multiplayer deathmatch lobbies, constant death and fighting but everything is stylized in a cartoonishly way, taunts and such create this charming and fun place in a warzone, the mission impossible style instruments in the background as a constant reminder that the spy could be anywhere, it's just great
a shame that they only used them in the trailers and main menu instead of the actual game
the trailers enhance the songs so well i can't stop thinking about it whenever i listen to the songs themselves

[jacehackworth]

The trailer for the Mann Vs. Machine update has one of my favorite pieces of music. That was seriously the most excited I was for anything in my entire life.

[rize]

It's a nice thing to see that everyone loves TF2 and still does, cheers from the TF2 community

“Chaotic Big Band” is the perfect name for this style of action/spy thriller music. To me, one of the best examples is the Archer theme, which builds up all the 60s secret agent tropes until it appropriately collapses in a hilarious mess of trumpets. Might be worth an analysis?
