“”A gate. Of course. Clarity Control is inviting me to make a GATE.
The Messenger Hypothesis. Aliens would seek the most efficient method of interstellar contact. Starships are slow, fragile, and massive. it is easier to send a set of instructions for a message receiver, or a construction blueprint for a portal.
This explains the reports of visions and paranoia at the K1 site! The idiots were receiving a message, but they failed to divine the true purpose! Or perhaps the invitation was only intended for me. And it IS an invitation…
..but I will need more data, and more talent, to answer it. I feel that the gate Clarity Control wants me to build is not any form or product of Clarity itself. The design, I think, is Vex…those pestilential nuisances encountered on Venus and occasionally elsewhere.
If I need a Vex gate to fulfill Clarity Control’s purpose, then I will make a Vex gate in the simplest way. I will have a Vex build it for me.
I know exactly where to find one. The only trick will be concealing the fact that I’ve taken it.”

All that out of the way, enjoy the music.
Oh and don't expect the fancy waveforms on every video. It's a total pain in the ass…
YES
Also, since I'm first, ill go ahead and say it to get it out of the way
"Dont talk to me or my son ever again"
I liked this strike itself, but I didn't really like the boss. Just Argos but smaller, and with the Undying Mind's orange shield
Goes into this strike severely underleved
Wyvren: Allow me to introduce myself
props for being the first to upload, I searched this every day hoping someone would
Breshi found out this was Reboot's phase 2 and that phase 1 is incomplete in the files. Sucks because the track is amazing.
So there's still hope that reboot is a raid ost? Because this sound slighty different, I'm confused
I think this is one of the most interesting strikes in my opinion, sure on paper it's just [Minor in game lore spoiler warning]…
Eramis reopening a Vex gate which releases a big Hydra, but the story behind it with Clovis Bray literally building the gate and being the cause of the Vex to arrive on Europa in the first place is fascinating. Plus that gate literally leads to the Vex home world!
Looks a bit like Argos to me
What they really needed to do was make the Transcendent Mind and Hydra have a Symbiotic relationship. Like Shield Brothers from Destiny 1. But they are literally just Hydras.
I love getting to the boss room, seeing the little hydra come out, and saying "awe it's adorable he has a big portal." Then the big boi comes out of the portal and I just go "OH SHIT!!!" and did an immediate 180 for the cover.
Cheers, man! I was waiting for this to be released. I was certain it was different that the ost version, but didn’t have the time to sit in the boss room forever.
Cool thing I’ve noticed: the beat (harmony? Whatever the bass part is called) of this track is identical to the one in the music that played in Interference. I have to guess it’ll just become the darkness combat leitmotif.
The soundtrack makes this boss feel like the start to a full on invasion really well imo
Thank you so much for the music
Every time we fight a new Vex boss, my friends and I call it 'Robo Satan'
“Transcendent Hydra appears”
“Belmon, Transcendent Mind also appears.”
The fact that they have the same tune as the darkness leitmotif makes it so much better.
When I hear this music: “Ah, yes, happiness.”
Belmont, Sounds Like Ice-Cream
Getting both Half Life and Mass Effect vibes from this track, lots of sounds they haven't used anywhere else – really drives home the idea that the Vex truly are the most alien, inhumane things we've ever encountered. Even the Darkness likes to talk, but the Vex? The Vex are the laws of the universe playing out to their inevitable conclusion. A matter-virus, the "meta" of physics. Incomprehensibly vast and utterly apathetic in scope, the true cosmic horrors of Destiny.
5:01
I love that it was more or less unanimous that people were briefly faked out by the smaller Hydra popping out of the Vex Gate before the big guy comes in.
When I first saw belmon I said this, "ARGOS STRIKE BOSS IS REAL" as a joke because of the fact I've met players who say argos is a strike boss as a joke because of how easy they were. Tfw a joke becomes a reality
This fight in a nutshell: Don't talk to me or my son ever again.
Thank you, I love this soundtrack
This strike is going to be pure agony when the grandmaster variant comes out.
could you upload the game version of the song obsession played during the whirlwind cutscene?
My reaction to the actual boss: Pfft, just another stupid Hydra.
My reaction to THE FUCKING WYVERNS: OH GOD PLEASE NO PLEA- “Your light fades away…”
so what are the tones played by the gate when the fight ends. sounds familliar. close encounter? futurama?
This tune just brings motivation when you play this underlevel. And also panic when the small hydra enters the corridors

Wyvrens are the new Minotaurs, thanks for sharing, my favorite soundtrack of this expansion so far
This is the kind of song where you get the core muscle jiggy going on to move your body.
Also, copious amounts of Spooky in the background.
As the mechanical electrical hum of the great portal opens. Electrical buzz and discharges echo the great chamber with units entering from a different point of time and space. Great armored steady walking killing machines with a singular red glowing eye(s). The Vex. The Hydra’ Belmon, The Trancesendent Mind and his counterpart thus enter the great hall before our 3 hero’s and with them come forth the steady might of their army from their unknown world. They seem endless and eternal. Such machines show no fear or respite and mercy upon our hero’s. They march in unison to the other end of the chamber hoping to get one foothold on the outer world so that many of their soulless kind can join them. This battle is fierce and cunning. The hero’s try to hide from Belmon but soon he sends forth his lower servant to drive them out. However knowing of this they outwit the hydra making it return to the void to regroup and soon new constructs of the Vex join the battle. War machines with glowing tendrils and high legs able to leap great distances with a high amount of power. Belmon shows no mercy. However the hero’s are quick to dispatch them quickly and carefully and damage the great Mind. Belmon retreats to the void. Vex Reinforcements arrive. Belmon and the Trancendant Hyrda return from the void eager to finish the battle but knowing only one side will win this fight. The army of mechanical machines clash against the warriors of the light in a never ending battle to stop the endless march of the Vex. In the end the head of The Transcendent Mind is shattered and defeated. Belmon is no more.
However
Time has no meaning. Only a End. However for The Vex. Time is their domain. And their end is a future.
A future where there is nothing.
Where all life is at a end and the stars go black. The end of all things. And only things alive to live that future is them.

This portal literally caused the end of humanity on Europa…Vex swarming by dozen to fight them 2 people one hates other
Such a great, tense, dark battle theme – thanks for the upload!
If only the boss didn't have so much HP.
Guardian: imma just hide in the corridors
Little hydra: allow me to introduce myself
