crystal hunters are the main reason i have anxiety
Lol same
It's the second worst enemy.
Too bad primal aspid steals the spotlight.
@@skeptic_lemon that's not how you pronounce Grimmkin Nightmare.
@@YoshiAteTooManyYoshiCookies Oh yeah, that as well.
@@skeptic_lemon If they replaced every other time the primal aspid appeared with the crystal bug it would probably be more annoying.This is all if of course in my opinion,but the primal aspid can at least be dodged ,but the crystal bug leaves that annoying crystal.
Edit: I’m doing my third play through now, and my opinions have since changed. Crystal hunter is actually quite good…
I'll never forget the first time I crystal dashed, I felt unstoppable.
That's when you realize you can be stopped with the jump button

Crystal Peak was kinda intimidating at first and strongly unsettled me, but now that I'm used to it, it's main theme gives off a very melancholy/sad vibe.
what’s so unsettling about it?
@@postonian425 Mhm, it kind of mostly was scary to me because of a past experience with playing a RPG called OFF. OFF has in it's second world (I think?) a mining area that has a pink-purplish aesthetic, and because of the sometimes invisible enemies it creates kind of a tense atmosphere. I think it's specifically that, that made it so unsettling. Also, Crystal Peak's implied lore has a fairly darker tone to it, and combined with the fact that it was my first time playing Hollow Knight and I wasn't sure what to expect in each area, it was a little daunting I guess? I hope my explaination is clear enough. it can be sometimes hard to describe these exactly. But that's pretty much the gist of it!
@@annajagnow2116 did myla die on your save yet lol
@@annajagnow2116 the smoke mines are in zone 1. Zone 2 is the residential area, but both are on the same spectrum (mines are purple, zone 2 is mostly pink)
I think it's due to the fact that despite walking along the beautiful caves filled with shining crystals aligned on the walls of the mine, it feels... empty... Miners, controlled by the infection, endlessly mine no matter how long (poor Myla) and other creatures as well, encased themselves with crystals into a sort of abomination... What used to be a busy mine, now left ruin to the infection...
The original upload was consumed by the infection
Lol yes
Like Myla
😢
When you super dash at 300kmph and that 2:40 hits you in the game. That’s one of the many reasons, why everything about this game is a masterpiece.
That's when you know you're gonna be hella powerful by the end of the game
Goes way better when you superdash in greenpath spikes zone
@@juliansfc and when you fought that boss on crystal peak
something about that backing track reminds me of borderlands 2, just me?
@@christophermorris7266 It's like a mixture of Caustic Caverns and Eridium Blight.
It just isn't the same without the sound of conveyor belts and pickaxes
REAL
And The ASMR of the giant crystal bug thingies
2:40 there, now you can hear it without the lasers
And the roaring

This music sounds like it's being played on crystals. Very fitting to the theme of the area.
Sounds really different without the crystals singing.
@@shadowstar8619 _"Keep singing, crystals! I can hear you! Keep whispering, I can almost hear what you're saying!"_ - Myla
@@rancholotl3384 There's even a video about the singing crystals: ruclips.net/video/2iAUopvGiYE/видео.html
_Can you just imagine yourself, in a first person perspective, walking through the Crystalline Mines of Crystal Peak? The vastness of its networks, the beauty of its crystals and the creatures that inhabit it? It'd be one of the most breathtaking experiences I would think~_
_Of course, such beauty doesn't come without it's dangers. As the drums in the song slowly kick in, imagine yourself coming across a hostile crystal hunter, it's wings buzzing and the crystals on its underside shimmering. Imagine you are now locked in battle with it, it trying to overwhelm you just as you're trying to fell it as quick as possible. And with a daring, decisive blow.... it is dead. Now imagine the calm that follows, after you clean up it's mess of sharp crystals and pick up the bits of geo it left behind. You're a stronger person now, be you bug, or vessel, or whatever._
Imagine it in VR, with that mesmerizing soundtrack
@@rasalghul84 hoooooooo take me
@@rasalghul84 Oh mah lawd, SOMEONE FUND IT!
so true but you forgot laserrrrs annnnnnnnnnnnnnnd you re dead ahah
*2:35* I love this part; it sounds like shit about to go down

I believe that's the laser gauntlet part. Possibly the Crystal/Enraged Guardian's boss battle segment too.
@@shadowstar8619 also during the section before deep focus (or quick focus, don't remember which one specifically)
@@nicolaslinopereira677 it is deep focus, you get quick focus from salubra
Lol around the time this song came out I was going through a terrible breakup with a guy who played this game for me. This was my revenge song. Now doing much better and better than him with less.
When i first saw Myla, i thought to myself "she's gonna die later, isn't her?" She didn't quite die, but i wish was wrong...
@@kasetrey3156yeah she literally says "Bury my body... Cover my shell..."
When i got desolate dive,i already knew that she died,cuz i saw a video telling me that if u get desolate dive she dies.I was very sad😭
This theme was my only way for happiness when my life was about to end.
I started playing this game in hard time in my life that I will never forget but it went safely in the end
and I can’t forget the amazing atmosphere and vibes this game gave me I will never forget it that's why its my best game too 3>
Brother or sister, whoever you are, I hope you're doing well now and out of those terrible times and I'm glad a game like HK has brought you into light. Have a great one and keep your vibes up
You and me both...
This game was the only thing that made me dream again, when I was about to give up...
Funny...
@@silvercandra4275 Sometimes, it is funny, life's funny, but hey, its good these miracles happen
I see so many comments like this that i dont rlly know anymore if you are faking or telling the truth...
@@temporaryguy5013 a lot of people go through the same things, lol
Easily my favorite area theme.
The area itself on the other hand… is also a banger!
Literally, you gonna be hearing banging sounds from machines for the time you're there
I don’t think there’s a single aspect of this game where the creators slipped up

I cant hear this without remembering those damn crystal flying bugs that make wherever they shoot untouchable
you can pogo those, and break those
I actually find them kind of fun to fight.
@@hexagon2185 the chosen one
Replicating a comment I mostly remember
Me: finally a bench. Oh there's an NPC here too.
Hits NPC
Crystal Guardian: screeches
W h a t t h e e v e r l o v i n g f * * k
Bro, you got me wheeze-laughing
I died to that boss a lot
...For some reason
The first time I came there I died to the crystal guy, and I just decided to skip that bench on my way to get the crystal heart. I've done a lot of stuff after that but I've been too lazy to go back and claim that bench lol
I died more to Great Mosscharger that regular Cristal Guardian.
That is not a joke.
I was like: UUUGGHHHHH FINALLY
Then I realized I couldn't sit down
Me proceeding to hit Crystal Guardian not thinking I'd have to fight a FRICKING BOSS: i just wanted to rest bro ;-;
"bass isn't an important instrument, it's for support only"
meanwhile 2:40
you love the music ✅
you love the area ❌
you have anxiety you hear the music✅
Qué dices??? Yo amo esa zona, es de las mejores del juego!
What’s wrong with the area?
bro it's the best area wym
But it's my favorite area.
@@Otamatone69Spikes, lazers, darkness, more spikes, home to one of the most annoying flying bugs, so many spikes, a lot of tricky platforming, and scary to navigate, but great music!
Just got here in a Steel Soul run. Panicked at least 3 times.
i died against crystal guardian in my first steel soul 😢
That's why I ducking hate it
I got sniped by one of the miners after getting descending dark
still salty about it
I probably should’ve went to resting grounds looking at it now but I needed to go to crown for the ore
I didn't die at that area, but traitor lord kill me, I literally made him look like a joke in godhome
And now I will have PTSD everytime I met him
This played on the radio at work today and I knew it sounded like hollow knight and then after the presenter confirmed it was hollow knight but didn't say which track
That’s amazing
Woa hearing Hollow Knights getting so popular makes me feel happy 😊
Umm sir,could you move please?
I cant squeze my way in that bench
Hey
Sir
MOVE *nail hit
Oh shit
2:40 amazing part
I love how the three distinct sections each communicate a different vibe depending on the area you're in whilst never straying from the same melodies, chords, and basic instrumentation.
The first section (0:00-1:36) plays when you first enter the mines and whenever you sit at a bench and it perfectly captures taking your first steps into a wonderous and beautiful cavern filled with gleaming crystals. The simple airy plucks of the strings combined with the slow chord changes and constant ambience really set the mood and put you at ease.
The second section (1:37-2:39) plays throughout the majority of the peak, and captures the feeling of leaving the safety of the bench to head out into the fray. The constant vibraphone/chimes combined with the addition of the toms create a feeling of business that represents the mining, crushing, treadmills, and lasers that make this area challenging to navigate. It's an amazing background theme for exploring the mines that keeps what made the first section good, and builds on it.
The third section (2:40-4:08) removes the vibes/chimes to make way for a more intense and brooding atmosphere, adding more percussion and an absolutely _thumping_ bass line and fades in and out throughout the track. This section is perfect for the most intense areas of the peak, appearing in the challenging parkour sections and the boss arenas. In spite of that, the wonderous feeling from the first section still lingers here, with those airy strings from the first section making a return and playing over the bass and drums, creating a vibe like no other.
Crystal Peak is by far my favorite area in the game, and the soundtrack is only one of the reasons why. Christopher Larkin popped off hard with the entire games soundtrack, and it really shows.
This is where I encountered my first mimic and *GOD* was that terrifying
Oh my god I was listening to all the soundtracks and whatever because I was just adventuring the crystal peaks, and that thing scared the ever living shit out of me
I unfortunately didn't get to have the full mimic shock value as my first one was in the coliseum. Given the location I was already like "alright something is off here".
But it did make me paranoid from there on because it was like "OK I guess this is something I gotta worry about now."
same thing happened to me, now ever since I got the Dream Nail, I always Dream Nail grubs just to check
when i hear this is just feel so lonely but not necessarily in a hostile way. kinda just like "yall gonna get real lost down here"
I love themes like this where the resonance of the instruments is a tool of harmony by itself giving the music a sort of richness that can't be accomplished by simple reverb.
Crystal Peak is unlike any other place in Hallownest, one of my favorites. So unique
Still, it blows my mind how you can have dreamshield as your first charm without any skips.
WHAT ???
Shade skip to Blue Lake, then drop down to Resting Ground?
@@Type03xx No. Just farm geo to get the lantern.
You can have any charm as your first, actually. Come to think about it, they're all optional
@@Type03xxwhat you just said contradicts the comment.
Happy to see these tracks back on RUclips.
This song gives me strong Celeste vibes for some reason.
Well, that's fitting for the area.

Trying to set up context for each hollow knight song in this playlist before the song ends:
The metallic sound of machinery rings as you pick your way through gears, cogs, and beautiful pink crystals that stare back at you with your ghostly reflection. The natural beauty and the artificial bug-made additions seem to compliment each other somehow. It feels like walking through a giant rosebush, is there any end in sight to this rose-tinted mechanical jungle?
That is actually a pretty good idea!
I like it!
The national theme of "oh god oh frick where am I how do I get out"
I wasn't really disturbed or unsettled by Deepnest (maybe that would've changed if I found Nosk naturally), hell I'm pretty sure I just thought it was cool. But this place, it got to me good. Myla was such a good mood setter for this place
Fear can evaporate quickly, but dread is a feeling that doesn't let you go
The bass in this song could have its own religion
Hear that ? _That's the sound of new players suffering._
A moment of silence for our girl Myla.

*I HATE LASER BUG*
We all hate laser bug
Haha laser go BRRRRR
Y'all are talkin about the ones ya can't kill with the nail right? Cuz there's multiple
@@goddessdeedeebubblesofimag7789
Thankfully, I figured out that the dream shield will kill them. It will take two to kill each one, but you can make it easier to get through areas with them, albeit slower.
@@VGamingJunkieVT soul blasts work as well.
Most of the melodies of this just randomly came to my head one day and decided to translate itself into my keyboard.
In other words, I taught myself most of this song already straight from memory alone.
It's my favorite soundtrack in Hollow Knight OST. I like it!
This music.... It is intriguing and anxiety inducing to me. I've entered the peaks shrouded in darkness. There's something ominous about the far away, muffled notes, about the bugs that keeps digging and digging, blinded by their goal and enthralled by the light they seek....
Edit: also the machinery noises reminds me a lot of the latter phases of Limbo, where the scenario morphs from forest, to man-made constructions at the borders, to the abandoned part of the city, to industrial setting ans lots of saws.
i fear no bug.
but that thing..
*Crystal Dash parkour section*
it scares me.
You can use spells to kill those little bugs that are impervious to your nail and walk along the walls and shoot lasers
Oh, hey. I never thought of that! But that's not really saying something considering I always forget I even have spells.
Ah, Crystal Peak, a place of conveyor belts and industry, of harvesting once precious stones in massive quantities and cold hard progress. A cruel mockery of Myla’s broken dreams and aspirations.
I have 5 main fears from this game:
Deepnest, Those exploding birds, Great Hoppers, Primal Aspids, and The Colosseum Of Fools.
i can't believe trial of the fool took me longer than PATH OF PAIN
The edge really is the place where you would find those fears
Gotta love the fact that none of these have anything to do with crystal peaks.
@@YoshiAteTooManyYoshiCookies I think when I made this comment it was in a playlist on a song that had a reason to have this type of comment but it got changed to this video before I fully posted it lol

My favorite topic. Very cool work with undertones and "broken" triplets.
I started playing this fun and not depressing game at a difficult time in my life, which I will never forget, but in the end everything went well and I took my first step from the roof of a five-story building :3
And I can't forget the amazing atmosphere and feeling this game gave me, I will never forget it, so this is my best game 3==э
Hollow has got to be one of my favorite games. I love just everything about it. I’m going to play it again once I get the chance
from 0:00 till the end:
4/4 time signature
*_This is the song you hear trying to get Crystal Heart for Monarch Wings only to realize Myla is now dead_*
this is such a good song
but it's a shame it gives bad memories from how hard the area is
damn crushers, spikes everywhere, freaking lasers
and there's usually the sounds of the machinery n shit so you don't get to fully enjoy this music
This is incomplete without the sounds of me dying every 10 seconds.
Literally, the only thing I was thinking about was my concern for Myla. All I thought about was trying to save my best friend.
This feels so surreal, normally my ears start bleeding when I enter this area because of all the clanks of metal and other loud noises.
This theme has my favorite action theme. Such a sexy bass😽
This song really gives me a sense of foreboding for some reason, like, “This is wrong. You shouldn’t be here. Something here went wrong and you shouldn’t be a part of it”
Maybe it’s also partly that I lost thousands of geo to those DAMN LASER BUGS-
One of the most underrated songs from the OST. One of my best
I always really like the music here. Got an adventurous yet sad tone to it.
What's worse?
Funni crystal fly
or
Funni aspid
Funni teleporting wizard frog.
Secret beautiful crystal cave.
the beggining of the end, where the bugs re-discovered the Radiance
oh what's this? an old moth civilization-
*D A W N S H A L L B R E A K*
the best hollow knight ost for me👍👍👍
*...So relaxing...*
0:00 Crystal Peak
2:40 Boss
This music when u see the evil miners and got used to seeing the good songs of Mila
*You loved her and you killed her*
I'm sorry... Myla
the crystal peaks.
by far the prettiest place in hallownest, i'm sure we can all agree.
i wonder what secrets are hidden beyond The Knight's discoveries?
Probably some things that are amazing
i hate your pfp

@@Azverial you cant switch genders
@@cheesepop7175 no no i totally agree, i was always non-binary i just didn't realise it until recently :3
Nothing felt more powerful than trying out this game's Shinespark for the first time
Surface of a crystal, its points and edges, then suddenly tracks of an animal that managed to adapt to this environment and survive. Outsider but acclimated.
Those six notes paint such a vivid image of a lifetime of hours lost to labor. Mindless labor that would ultimately amount to a small wage and a wasted life.
*I like how a lot areas like this n Queen’s Garden have multiple sets of the theme:*
*0:00**-main theme!*
*1:05**-quiet/calm theme!*
*1:38**-getting hype theme!*
*2:18**-getting hyper theme!*
*2:39**-combat theme!*
*3:45**-Crystal/Enraged Guardian combat theme!*
I remember when I first got here I was so excited and I loved it
Edit: Fav part btw 3:12
I remember I had to google on how to get out of here lol
The drop is epic
Why were these videos deleted and reuploaded, what happened?
The original channel IndiGo, has been terminated for copyright infringement, I suspect for also having Nintendo OST uploaded. I'm not gonna be touching Nintendo content with a 3 mile stick.
@@Amellifera. Thanks for that information. I was really confused.
@@Amellifera. Why did this answer make me laugh
Ah yes, the only part of the game where I got genuinely lost and had to look up a walkthrough to get out again
1:38 yep it’s coming
thak you so much for makeing this playlist :)
"Hey buddy i need that bench" me before dying multiple times by crystal guardian
if you want it heres the action theme: 2:40
In the end you can hear the footsteps of the mindless miners.
While walking through the ruins of this kingdom and through the many splendours that was able to withstand the chaos this place radiating of crystals, light and machines was able to stand as the most gorgeous place here. When entering a few rumours have be recalled from your mind one was of place where one could here the crystals sing as they shine, another being an odd key in one of the workshops and most notable is that the worlds peak is but a climb away. Are each worth your time or will it be but a fantastical dream?
1 Husk miner: Use Vengeful Spirit
2 Husk miner: *SUDDEN DEATH*
Everyone's talking about 2:40 but what about 1:37
Lowkey sounds like those chime things in a playground 😅
Funny part is that I don't think you ever hear that on its own in-game. It's just added over the rest of theme.
2:40 Onwards has no right slapping as hard as it does
I don't know man, this ost is kinda giving me some prey 2017 vibes
2:40 stranger danger: Climbing the Crystal Peak
1:37 This is where things start to get interesting
The first time i had entered the Crystal Peak I filet clam
Five minutes later: GOD DAMMIT THIS LAZERS HELP ME ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Bro because of crystal peak when I listen to this song I get anxiety
as the song name implies, this song is truly peak
2:39 hits hard.
Bro this song just gives all of us ptsd 😂
Harmonics and crystals! Guitar piece caught me off guard as an acoustic player.
putting the peak in crystal peak
This reminds me a lot of the crystal caves in subnautica below zero
Small threat: 1:37
More threat: 2:40
wtf this sounds like snowpeak from twilight princess
This song is really good and calm us
My favourite song and location from the game.
This is peak.
