No Man's Sky - An auditory and visual experience playlist. Ambient Music, ASMR, Gameplay and more.

[ImperatorElite]

Hello and welcome to my little thread on some videos I have done in regards to NMS with some different views or perspectives in my experiences I've had. Along my various saves and journey's in NMS they have evolved and changed each time. Giving a new experience each time.

More recently in the last few months I've come to really appreciate certain aspects of the game and give them more attention. That is mostly the sounds of NMS. Not so much the music as that has been experienced time and time again. But mostly sounds, sound effects and okay to contradict myself some of the music on specific anomaly planets.

From these experiences I branched out a bit and as I did each video i tweaked or added things here and there. My goal is just to share these and hope that others enjoy it or have some sort of positive experience from it. If you don't like this stuff or my videos, that's okay. I'm not a professional, I don't care to be and there are probably plenty of other people who has done similar things better.

Without further ado.

Done. Still a noob at a lot of this kind of stuff.

Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response. Or in English, tingly feelings in your head from certain sounds or visuals. If this clip makes you feel pleasantly peculiar, you're sensitive to asmr.

This video is not only tingly, but also is a good demonstration of 8D sound, that technique that makes the sound come not only from left or right but also from above or back. Interesting.

What I enjoy about your vids is that they remind me to stop and listen to the detailed creativity that is NMS.

I have tended to play with the sound low or off and will listen to an audio-book or silence while playing. As well, rushing into a space station and back out, as I recall you pointed out in your OP is not conducive to appreciating the ambient sounds. I appreciate that you are posting these vids.
... I wonder what else I am missing?

Thank you. That is actually the main purpose of me doing these. Just really absorbing the sounds and sights of no man's sky. Takes me back to when I played at release. I took my time. Less of a grind or rush or push to farm and get units. Loved the exploration of it all.

And that's all still there don't get me wrong. In most ways everything is better and I'm happy for it. But with the extra grinds and push for better ships. Freighters. Frigates. Base building and some other things being locked behind story/opening tasks its easy to forget to just take the time to absorb everything in.

And little things can be hard to find. Making those videos I went to countless planets. Each one I checked Caves for anything really unique, lit up and bright etc. Every cave I found was lack luster. Kind of bummer. But when I do find that really nice looking one I'll use it for another video with sounds of the Caves (with water trickling down around) and maybe a planet that has storms that randomly come by. Capturing those sounds too.

Everyone's play style is different. But i like taking it a bit slow and easy in the game. And honestly it's a major de-stresser for me and calms me.

Latest. This one is a music video, not anything ASMR-esque or whatever.

Latest to the edition. A calcified/ossified planet. Just uploaded, 4k/HD won't be available for a bit. Edited the audio a bit, layering in some of the sound effects of the anomaly glitched creatures and the pulsating purple things.

Lol thanks.Next up is finding a good "webbed planet" with those balls or whatever that look like they are roped down.

I really love the sounds on those planets. Wonder how well those would work for a backgound sleeping ambience...

Some do work for me. I did try a shuffle of the different ones the other night. However the columned planet video didn't give me that effect. Just doesn't have the right sound.

Going to experiment with a few other things like spacestation server room. Or maybe the ship sounds in various ways. Flying through space etc. Not sure yet.

@ImperatorElite: I like the videos.Thanks for sharing. I havn't listened to all of them yet, but I'll get to them eventually. I have to admit, the visual part of it is kind of boring but not the audio, it's just that in the visual part of it, there's not much going on but I do understand you have to have the visual part of it to tie in with the audio. I think you have pretty much all of the "anomaly planets" except the one called the "Bladed planet". In case anyone is wondering what that planet type is, I"ll list it later on, here. I have a base on that type of planet and also a base on a "Calcified Moon". While looking at the listing of your videos, I picked out that "Calcified" planet video to watch today. Some of those sound effects get to me, I guess because they are more what I call "warehouse" or "industrial" type of sounds. You have it, but not very well are those sounds made from what I call those "star creatures". They roll around all over the place, and if you listen close, in the game, it reminds me of a wagon wheel or wheels on a wheel barrow. Those sounds are grating on me every time I hear them, because I was attacked twice by those creatures.

I didn't even know let alone have heard what ASMR is until it was mentioned in this forum. I like different sounds and sound effects and I really have a interest in synths. I listen to most of what is in the game as far as sounds and music, but maybe not as close as some others.?

These are great, but you really should rickroll halfway through one of them.

I think I know what one you're talking about with the bladed planet. I think that and the foaming/bubble planets I visited really didn't have much going on when I listened for music or sound effects.

I did initially want to do something more on the visuals. But since I'm mostly focused on the listening aspects and sounds I stuck with that as the focus. Also I do find most other music videos of various genres in the ambient synth cyberpunk etc usually have just a picture or an animated picture of sorts. I have no clue how to make the animated ones.

The creatures rolling around on the calcified planet that I added in were really just of one recording. I tried various areas and each time with music off and sound effects only there was so much other ambient noises going on with wind, the pulsating sound of those calcified looking deposits etc that it was hard to pinpoint and focus the creatures themselves. When I did add the audio in for them I kept them more on a back note with fade in and out and volume gain being a bit lower.

I've never actually done any video/audio editing really. It's definitely a learning experience. I'm using shotcut for it since it's free and will allow me to do 4k. Not that is really 100% needed.
