My best description of the differences between the old and new is the old has this otherworldly feeling to it. It lurks in the background of nostalgia and horror, creating a sense of longing and loneliness to it. The newer one has a modern take on the original. It is sharper, bolder and complements the story well. Both are great, but different approaches.

Sometimes, less is more. And that rule applies a lot to Silent Hill games, the original game soundtracks being more limited, and having this otherworldly sense of mistery to it, fits way better imo. The original soundtrack is so good people that people nowadays try to replicate it. There is something magical about that early 2000s era of videogames and music in general.

There’s just something about the original soundtrack, with its trip-hop and mysterious vibes, that could never be beaten, but the new soundtrack is still great! As a drummer, I’ve always loved the sludgy bass drum and pingy snare ringing from the original drum sound, especially heard in “Angel’s Thanatos.”

Original: Studio album Remake: High quality Live Performance. I personally feel like he went the extra mile to make the new music specifically fit the remake, to the point they will sync to what's happening on screen. Not that the original didn't fit the game, it did, but my point is they wouldn't fit with the remake as well as remade tracks. I still prefer the original tracks, but I know I'll listen to the new ones just as much.

This might come as a surprise to you but just because artists "change and evolve" it does not mean their new work is automatically better than their previous work. Yamaoka quite literally stated in a recent interview he struggled to enter the specific mindset and mental state that he was in 25 years ago when he made the original game's soundtrack. This is an excerpt from a 1999 interview that Yamaoka did: "For Silent Hill, the first thing I wanted to avoid was the "revered creator", and what is created by those who revere the creator. This was my first concern. To make something like that would be the height of embarrassment and insincerity… peppering the work with ostentatious eccentricities and making something unbearably pretentious, that was another thing I was determined to avoid. Of course, being a slave to hackneyed traditions wasn't an option either. There is no background music in Silent Hill. I tried to depict the sounds that would be heard in the world of Silent Hill if it existed, using the art of conveying sound through air vibrations. The stereotypical sounds that are often described as "game music" do not apply to Silent Hill at all. I also avoided trying to make "cinematic" music as I felt it would sound too intentional. I also tried to to think about how people would interact with Silent Hill as a PlayStation game. To that end, my sound design is like a blade sunk into Silent Hill, carving out a space to make it unique from all others". Here is another one from the "Making of SH2": "... I think that the sounds in Resident Evil are pretty formal. I would say we are used to hearing them. Whereas for Silent Hill 2, I really tried to create something that would surprise you, something that would challenge your imagination as if the sounds were going under your skin..." The point is, Yamaoka (at least all these years ago) had a incredible clarity about the type of sound he wanted to create for Silent Hill. You can't get mad at people to see him steer away from this iconic soundscape that he created. With that said, the new soundtrack is not bad. Far from it! But let's not pretend that comparisons between it and the original would never happen. The only way Yamaoka could ever top the original, was if he decided to do something completely different and fresh.

@@hagoromootsutski9058 I'm just so fucking sick and tired with all the back and forth tug of war fans are having In regards to "original is better" and "Remake is better" Also I wasn't implying Akira's new music was better because it was new, I was saying that people complaining about akira's new music being inferior/too different from the original is redundant because otherwise what the hell would you rather have happen? Of course it was going to be "Different" because a remake is a reiteration/reimagining of something, meaning things will be changed whether or not people will like it. The only other option was just to not make a remake at all.

@@beyondthegrave124 that is just the way it is man. The very idea of remakes is a one that people cannot seem to agree on, because each case differs so wildly from the next one. To be faithful right down to the minutest detail? Or to try something significantly new and risky? From what I’ve seen, this phenomenon arises when companies remake games which are beloved for some reason. And naturally, people will have strong feelings about it. That’s going to create tension and both sides of the fanbase will go at each other. Even then, comparisons would be inevitable. Which is why not just remakes, but sequels and any games that follow the first in a franchise are always the hardest to make. Personally, I don’t mind these remakes but I would have loved to see publishers provide ports of the old games with remakes, so as to preserve old media whilst also revitalising the series, and making both versions accessible to new fans.

Old soundtrack feels like some underground grunge album from 90s that tried to appeal to the audience of teenagers. New soundtrack feels like that the same people remade the music but they had a task/assignment from the manager/label to make it sound more appealing to the wider audience so it's less experimental, toned down and "safe". That's the thing with the whole game. Original SH2 was a niche product for some specific audience since at the time gamers(tm) were small group(compared to other subcultures) of people. And the remake is trying to be a mainstream product and appeals to everyone, because big companies behind devs need constant ever-growing profit. Idk how else to explain that. It's just not the same it's not the same tone, vibe or whatever you call it. And it's not like somebody is hurting my childhood memories or I prefer old OST because of nostalgia or something. I got introduced to the original SH games in 2023 when I heard about announcement of remake. So it's a little more than a year between me playing original SH2 and the remake.

Ypu know what i like the most of the old soundtrack, that it feels more like what you experiment when u re in a paralisis nightmare or in a real life panic/ xtreme situation ( in the case of betrayal )or in a introspective self-punishing situation ( like in dark fairy or world of madness) The feelings that trasmit the old ost are so crude and real, how it represents a mind distorted as how they make sense but they re at same time distorted in the background of your mind or present like a stress reminder in your nighmares its so real i love it. The new ost is great but it lacks that, its more a ambient soundtrack that is there to acompany the trama but most of the old ones are there to form active part of the situation its great!

What I've noticed is that the original has this otherworldly feeling as if you're stuck somewhere completely foreign and it brings this chilling aura along with it. The remake however uses the fact that we've been to this town before, the songs have the melancholic or otherwise heartbreakingly sad undertone to it. Violins being included underneath, a choir, or even replacing synths with a piano. It feels as if the original was more so the town's music, the emotional and isolating grunge of silent hill. The remaster is James' music, it's his grief mixing with silent hill and the music.
