I definitely didn’t realize enemies reappear in the depths, the first time I actually went into one of the chasms after beating the Wind Temple as my first temple, didn’t know I needed to illuminate the light roots, and accidentally floated into a second boss fight with this thing in total darkness. That was exciting.
“OOHHH, Link gets tumbled up as his trusted companion Tulin watches in disbelief! What will Link do from this? AND LINK HITS COLGERA WITH MULTISHOT 3X BOMB ARROW TO THE WEAK POINT!” - Farosh
I'm exploring the dapths of Hyrule and almost got every root activated I'm maxing my stamina wheel for the Master Sword and maxxing out my heart containers before I progress further in the game to explore it even further.
Sometimes I ride Farosh in the Depths and I just immediately go to Colgera if I see him. And Farosh would see Link turning into an air missile and plowing through Colgera like ice.
This fight was cinematic af. Wasn’t too hard but it had all the spectacle to be an exciting boss fight. And this soundtrack really helped to engage the player with that spectacle. Well done Nintendo!
YES SAME! the soundtrack, flying in the air it was all AWESOME! fight wasnt hard at all, i can relate this fight to the Deer fight in Elden ring, easy fight, but you felt like i dont wanna fight this thing because it was soo majestic and the music made it soo memorable.
I didn't love the boss fight. I figured it out almost right away, and I don't think he hurt me once. His weak points were too obvious. But the theme was killer! Hands down my favorite boss theme in this game!
the fight wasn’t hard, but the boss theme was so good, i purposely delayed finishing the fight just to hear more of the theme while soaring around in the wind
Frankly Colgera has such a great theme, it's really cheering you on and on. It starts slow, essentially telling you to breath in and rise to fight this gigantic beast. The woodwinds emulate the rising wind, the tuba represents the monster and the glockenspiel, the biting cold air. Then you get his first weakspot, the music tenses up as the boss writhes in pain. The quieters parts fit your slow glide through the airs while the furious horns show Colgera riling up. There _is_ hope left, you can defeat it, just focus on avoiding his attacks and strike again... And when you do, the music swells with hope and joy. The flute sounds unsteady, almost out of breath, yet it plays on and gets supported by triumphant horns when it fades away. You're almost there, keep going! And of course, the main melody gets interrupted by horns and strings shouting in unison *"For the glory of the Rito!"* Just one more hit and it'll all be over.
Even though this boss battle doesn't require a bunch of precision or strategic use of the weapons, the fact the health bar only has six intervals, and the battle is so modular... It makes for an outstanding soundtrack, just as you've described. Might not be the most fun to play but certainly the most fun to experience.
@SkyfoxDartner He did, when he said: "the main melody gets interrupted by horns and strings shouting in unison "For the glory of the Rito!"". He was refering to that WW reference that literally interrupts the flute melody the first time in phase 3.
I'm so glad the Rito got a bigger chapter in ToTK. I always felt like their segment in Wild was rushed. Instead this epic mountain climb into the very sky was the best "first temple" I've ever played, and the others didn't dissappint either!
Finally someone does it right. Nice of them to try but I swear it's like 99% of people who upload game music have no actual sense of rhythm or pitch when stitching tracks together.
I'm not gonna claim to have any sense of rhyhtm or pitch or musical expertise, I just take recordings from the game and line up the audio files accordingly 🤷♂️ Regardless I appreciate the support!
Goddamn. For kids playing this game at ages 10-16, this is going to be what Disney was for a lot of us in our thirties and forties. The amount of love put into crafting a beautifully exhilarant and memorable experience is tangible in just the music by itself.
This fight (and the entire Rito quest) was my absolute favorite for a number of reasons. I like how, if you do this one first like Purah tells you, it feels like Link and Tulin and growing together. You're both learning how to be warriors. When you get to the fight, the cutscene where they're both blasted into the sky is awesome because Tulin uses his wind gust to right himself (a bit that might get missed, but shows how in tune with his power he is), Link joins him, and then they both dive fearlessly into the action. From a game development standpoint, this fight does a great job of reinforcing and training you on the dive mechanics and sky combat, along with practice dodging spikes that foreshadows dodging the Demon Dragon's fireballs at the end. I also love how, instead of flipping him upright to the normal bullet time pose, there is a pose of Link shooting from his stomach as he's skydiving. It's just a small thing, but I love it 😂 And afterwards, when Tulin gets his stone and he almost hesitantly confirms, "So my mission is to fight the demon king with you?" there's a moment where it feels like he might be scared, and I'm sure Link senses it, too. But then Tulin turns around and proclaims, "Link! This is so, so amazing!" The music swells with the trademark accordion of Rito music, an instrument that had been missing up until that point. All Tulin ever wanted to do was help out... and now he gets to do more than he ever thought he could. Beautiful.
Honestly it's great if you leave the quest for later because it's sort of like a close bond between a student & a master. Because you start seeing tulin grow as a warrior, fighting along your side & actually helping & showing skill in how he handles the fight with you, wouldn't you be proud of the kid as a master or role-model (sort of)?. And his happiness when he gets a chance to help you is profound because he looks up to link & is proud to fight by the side of the person who inspired him to fight, & same with you as you see what was a little rito who people didn't think much of grow into a strong & capable warrior because of you as a inspiration & his own training. He's not a student, he's a master now, & i'd sure as hell would be proud of him because of how much he has grown.
Me fighting Colgera: "Ugh, my arrows are missing! How am I going to beat him?" (Remembers back to getting to the Sky Temple, shattering an ice floor) "That couldn't work... could it?" (Dives headfirst into Colgera's purple section. It shatters.) "Wait. THAT WORKED?! THAT IS SO COOL!!!"
"Dreams will fade when you wake." Cherish the moment everyone and let's all hope these amazing songs don't get taken down. I've been waiting to hear this seamlessly put together since I first played this boss. Thank you so much for uploading this :)
Sure everyone is talking about the (VERY EPIC) Dragon Roost Island bit, but I absolutely love the Second Attack part, Colgera's theme sounds so eerie, so villainous, SO TENSE. The strings going up and down, the rythm being constantly broken, Ganon's theme sneaking in, and the key constantly going higher and higher until it ends with a melody similar to Molgera's theme flute, the super tense music turns into a hopeful "ATTACK NOW!" symphony. This boss fight is so so perfect, holy shit.
I loved this boss theme... I was so happen real dungeons returned with new and unique bosses. My first boss was Marbled Gohma but then I went to the Wind Temple and the moment I heard this theme I got pumped.... the violins screeching like wind blowing violently.... the flute bringing the harmony of just flying through the air, the sounds playing like you're being chased by Gloom Hands signaling that this is a threat, and needs to be dealt with, and then it HITS YOU WITH THE DRAGON ROOST ISLAND THEME!!! God. Damn. BRILLIANT!!!
Going in blind and hearing the molgera motif i was like "huh neat, nice call back" but when i heard the dragon roost island motif it was like the spongebob ascending meme, it was my childhood coming back all at once and socking me in the gut. 10/10 would ascend again
I find it rather impressive that Tulin handles his bow with his... Feet? Talons? During Breath and AOC, we saw Revali handle his bow with his arms and hands, which probably hindered his mobility. So it kinda makes sense to handle flight with their wings, and their bow with their talons.
I think it actually has to do with a strength issue. Tulin is still relatively young and small for a Rito, so in order to shoot from their giant bows, he needs to put his entire body weight into it. That's how I interpreted it at least🤷
Usually Rito Will use their feet to fire their bows like Tulin does. For some reason though, Revali uses his wings. But on concept art and such you can see Rito firing their bows like that.
@@alvaronavarro4895 wonder if it's got anything to do with revali trying to show he's better than Link/Hylians, doing archery their way. since that's kind of his whole shtick lol
Why did they have to give the quickest boss the BEST THEME?! Also, you are seriously amazing. I don’t know what I would do without your edits they’re perfect 💖💖💖
First time I saw it in the Depths, I was horrified. I'm scared of the dark, and giant creatures (I was basically screaming the whole original fight). My heart dipped with every step I took towards it, but once I actually got into it, and the music played, I was able to get over myself really quickly. Yesterday I fought it again, and killed it so fast I didn't even get to the Dragon Roost bit. Feels good to improve.
i fight the depths bosses and lynels all the time for sport but after i knock the socks off colgate (a nickname ive given him bc mint = cold and colgera just really sounds like colgate) I delay on the 3rd disk to vibe
THANK YOU for the seamless version! All the other uploads that include the huge fade aways and gaps between each transition are bad. It kills the momentum and build-up of the song. Again thank you for this! Now we need an hour version of YOUR seamless version.
This track is just so darn good. The intensity builds so well and there is this breakout moment where the Rito theme plays and it gives me chills every time. Really sells the feeling of little Tulin truly becoming the Sage of Wind and the pride of his people.
Maybe my brain is weird (it is actually) But, when I first fought Colgera, I instantly knew to just head dive first in his spots Something in me just clicked when I tried to avoid his spikes, and I found myself just free falling towards this monstrous beast F to all who used all of their arrows
Oh my God, wind waker HD how i love you and how much love transformed into nostalgia we all received. i legitimately had to pause the game and cry for a good minute.
Every Zelda has a boss fight theme that is "the best boss fight theme" of the game, I think I can speak for everyone when I say this is the best one from Tears of the Kingdom.
I just found your channel, and this is excellent. I’ve been so sick of the constant uploads of this ost which just fade the different phases of bosses and temples in and out. I’m so glad someone finally did it right. HUGE appreciation for your work!!!
I love how the part with the dragon roost island theme hits hard equally for people who have played wind waker, and those who haven’t because it’s also the rito village theme.
Clearly the most favorite and prolly the best boss battle theme in the game. Made even better by the fact that you can reface these guys in the depths at key locations for great loot
I never stayed above him long enough to see him do his spike launch attack, so I didn't even know it was a thing until I saw it in a video 3 days ago. I've thought this entire time his only attacks were running into you and tornadoes
When the dragon roost Island theme came in I literally got so emotional that I barely kept it together let's just say I'm glad this boss was easy because once it came in I literally fucking lost it for about 10 seconds and I almost fell to my death but then I corrected and then I became a serious warrior and like toys around with it until the song was finished tracking through then I just ended him like the hero of the winds and meme faces was literally saying dude I'm here let's kick some motherfuking ass and look like a legend while doing it
I remembered that I had to pause the game when I heard the beginning of the song, I was so impressed by how magnificent it was. I had shivers and I still have them ! One of my faves songs of the game
even ignoring the Dragon Roost island reference, this song is still a masterpiece. It is grand, and intimmidating in the first part, almost giving a sense of awe and wonder as you gaze upon the massive beast. The second part brings a sense of urgency and need to defeat the boss. The deep, terrifying notes give you an urgency to take down the flying worm, as well as the serious tone urge you to shoot the damn thing in the glowing blue parts. The third part gives you your sense of hope and edge to defeating the boss. Epic notes reminding you of Rito Village tell you that this horrible blizzard is almost over and you are almost done with your mission. It gives you a sense of emotion and accomplishment as you deal the final blow. This piece, although given to arguably the worst designed boss in the game, makes this boss my favorite (alongside the atmosphere and general vibe of killing this thing in a giant blizzard tornado)
I get chills and tear up (pun intended) every time i hear the dragon roost island theme in this song. Oot was my first game ever but WW was the first game i ever beat by myself. It holds such a special place in my heart and this battle evoked such intense memories and emotions when i first heard this.
The only wrong thing about this boss fight, was that it was too short. You dive into one weak point, wait for him to appear under you, and shoot the other two with arrows. If you get the hang of it, the fight only lasts like 2 minutes.
Listening to this again makes me realise how awesome this theme is During the battle I was too busy trying to defeat Colgera I didn't even hear the music I've never played Wind Waker, but that little call back sounds fucking amazing
The moment you knew Zelda bosses are back: this whole theme. Best take on Dragon Roost Island and a cool 3rd iteration of Molgera. Yes I'm including Molduga too. Functions almost the same like Molgera except you're airborne with the fun aspect of TOTK and BOTW's paragliding. You have a companion by your side. It's put in a Wind Temple like Wind Waker. Nintendo gave what you wanted and they didn't do it badly.
Zelda always has the best fkin music. Idk how, but each game has such timeless soundtracks that evoke instant nostalgia for something that isn't even there. I've never played Windwaker, unfortunately, yet, I feel such a strong sense of longing when I hear this song. When I first played Ocarina of Time, my favorite game of all time, I was barely a toddler. I remember watching my mother play the crap out of it, and I remember feeling that same longing every time I heard the intro music on boot-up. I mean, this series captures something that is totally indescribable. It's amazing.
I just listen to the theme when I fight Colgera in the Depths. I didn't know Colgera's Theme when I beat Wind Temple. It was my first temple so I didn't know how good this was. I just plowed through Colgera without knowing the theme.😂😂😂
Is the fight repetitive and kinda boring? Yes. Is this my favorite boss of the game just because of the music? Absolutely. Say whatever you want about the fight itself, this bgm is UNDENIABLE.
I can't imagine how incredible this was for people who played Wind Waker back in the day. I almost cried just from the Rito Village connection.
I didn’t even think they could improve Rito village
The flute playing the Molgera theme in phase 3 is awesome, too.
I almost dropped my Switch when I heard it ngl
A grin from ear to ear. And tears of joy. That’s what it was like, my friend.
@@atomicbaconbits6695So they DID put in a Molgera music reference into this
I definitely didn’t realize enemies reappear in the depths, the first time I actually went into one of the chasms after beating the Wind Temple as my first temple, didn’t know I needed to illuminate the light roots, and accidentally floated into a second boss fight with this thing in total darkness. That was exciting.
Yeah being able to fight them again in the depths up to 3 times every blood moon makes battling this boss again well worth.
I was on one of the dragons in the depths and happened to look to the side to see the form of colgera it was shocking
I would’ve crapped myself dude, oh my gosh 😂
What temple did you beat next
@linklelonk I did them the same order as i did breath of the wild order. Water->gerudo->wind->fire
I once saw Farosh fly by during a rematch in the Depths.
That would've been such an awesome sight!
“OOHHH, Link gets tumbled up as his trusted companion Tulin watches in disbelief! What will Link do from this? AND LINK HITS COLGERA WITH MULTISHOT 3X BOMB ARROW TO THE WEAK POINT!” - Farosh
I'm exploring the dapths of Hyrule and almost got every root activated I'm maxing my stamina wheel for the Master Sword and maxxing out my heart containers before I progress further in the game to explore it even further.
@@A-Rune-bear”what this? Link seems to be using his Autobuild to make an Apache helicopter!? This one’s getting interesting folks!

Sometimes I ride Farosh in the Depths and I just immediately go to Colgera if I see him. And Farosh would see Link turning into an air missile and plowing through Colgera like ice.
I will never get over this theme

help I’ve been listening to this every week how do I escape

He turned into an Air-to-Air Missile and dove head first at Mach One.

How do I pin a comment on somebody else's channel
POETRY!!
I could read that all day! And I totally agree with you!
why is the sage of wind quest the most fun, tulin is the most useful sage,and this theme such a banger?
Edit: wow ty for the likes
and he's also the only sage that didn't play a major role in breath of the wild. he definitely sticks out from the rest.
Rito bias from the dev team, but frankly I'm glad the rito have been so well integrated in both Botw and Totk.
for botw it was zora bias. maybe next game it'll be goron bias lol
When thinking of the dungeons as quest lines, you may be right. I think the Rito quest had the best beginning, middle, and end of them all.
My favorite quest was probably the gerudo
I'm so glad the Rito got a bigger chapter in ToTK. I always felt like their segment in Wild was rushed. Instead this epic mountain climb into the very sky was the best "first temple" I've ever played, and the others didn't dissappint either!
I almost cry everytime i hear the Rito Village part, it hits a very special part of my heart. ::')
dragon roost island theme 🔥

REAL
This was 100x worse with Age of Calamity
And suddenly im 10 years old again playing windwaker for the first time
The skydiving tinkling piano notes here and there add so much
Goddamn. For kids playing this game at ages 10-16, this is going to be what Disney was for a lot of us in our thirties and forties. The amount of love put into crafting a beautifully exhilarant and memorable experience is tangible in just the music by itself.
idk what nintendo was cooking but damn this is some good shit
Just holy motherfucking good!

Excellent breakdown, you captured my favorite parts and why in there too
2:55 i regret not having the volume up when fighting with this boss
Every time the theme approaches Dragon Roost, my heart literally skips a beat
The absolute peak of the game. This is actually beautiful.
Me fighting Colgera:
"Ugh, my arrows are missing! How am I going to beat him?"
(Remembers back to getting to the Sky Temple, shattering an ice floor)
"That couldn't work... could it?"
(Dives headfirst into Colgera's purple section. It shatters.)
"Wait. THAT WORKED?! THAT IS SO COOL!!!"
My caveman braincell on life support didn't even think twice before full diving into colgera's weakspot.
That's the Nintended way🌟
Didn't even think about doing that....trying it!
i did it the other way around, i never thought of going through it and i ended up using like 10 keese eyes lmao
I ran out of arrows and I ended up saying "Oh fuck it" and plowing through Colgate with my head
I fn love the Molgera, Dragon Roost and Vah Medoh motifs in there
My jaw literally dropped.
I literally gasped.
My eyes literally shot wide open.
Not figuratively. Literally. What a hell of a powerful moment.
This game has only been out for a year and I already feel nostalgic for it
"Dreams will fade when you wake." Cherish the moment everyone and let's all hope these amazing songs don't get taken down. I've been waiting to hear this seamlessly put together since I first played this boss. Thank you so much for uploading this :)

Why did they have to give the quickest boss the BEST THEME?!
Also, you are seriously amazing. I don’t know what I would do without your edits they’re perfect 💖💖💖
i almost cried during this, i love Ritos and hearing wind waker music at the same time is insane.
Probably one of my best video game moments.
One of the only reason why I love the depths is to refight this boss over and over again within the blood moon
I honestly can’t count how many times I got busted hearing this theme at school
Stand at the bottom of the arena in the depths where you can't get hurt to listen
This was one of my favorite boss fights in this game. Interesting concept for a Zelda game.
2:55 aaaaaand tears
1:08 These few seconds of the accordion make me think Kazz had a brief run in with Colgera

As someone who’s first game was Wind Waker for the Game Cube, Dragon Roost coming in during the climax definitely choked me up.
There’s something about this which just feels so grand, like the world is counting on you, everyone’s watching and you can’t fail and I love it!

I love how the part with the dragon roost island theme hits hard equally for people who have played wind waker, and those who haven’t because it’s also the rito village theme.
Hearing this in a concert would be so amazing!
It’s sad the shortest fight in the game has the best music
Might be the greatest piece this series has ever been associated with and I’ve been playing since a link to the past
*Third phase starts playing*
Me:
🏹⏰
personally I'm a diver
Clearly the most favorite and prolly the best boss battle theme in the game.
Made even better by the fact that you can reface these guys in the depths at key locations for great loot
Everyone’s talking about Dragon Roost Island but that piano in that first and second phase is transcendent
This shit is so good…
every time i hear the third attack part i get goosebumps, one of my favorite zelda tracks
oh these transitions are delightful. some of the best I’ve heard ngl, they fit together so well I got a little kick out of hearing them each time
I never stayed above him long enough to see him do his spike launch attack, so I didn't even know it was a thing until I saw it in a video 3 days ago. I've thought this entire time his only attacks were running into you and tornadoes
When the dragon roost Island theme came in I literally got so emotional that I barely kept it together let's just say I'm glad this boss was easy because once it came in I literally fucking lost it for about 10 seconds and I almost fell to my death but then I corrected and then I became a serious warrior and like toys around with it until the song was finished tracking through then I just ended him like the hero of the winds and meme faces was literally saying dude I'm here let's kick some motherfuking ass and look like a legend while doing it
Tulin being voiced by Bennett made this quest way more fun, and it was already cool as hell
I am absolutely in love with the wind instrument work in this theme. Beautiful!
I remembered that I had to pause the game when I heard the beginning of the song, I was so impressed by how magnificent it was. I had shivers and I still have them ! One of my faves songs of the game
even ignoring the Dragon Roost island reference, this song is still a masterpiece. It is grand, and intimmidating in the first part, almost giving a sense of awe and wonder as you gaze upon the massive beast. The second part brings a sense of urgency and need to defeat the boss. The deep, terrifying notes give you an urgency to take down the flying worm, as well as the serious tone urge you to shoot the damn thing in the glowing blue parts. The third part gives you your sense of hope and edge to defeating the boss. Epic notes reminding you of Rito Village tell you that this horrible blizzard is almost over and you are almost done with your mission. It gives you a sense of emotion and accomplishment as you deal the final blow. This piece, although given to arguably the worst designed boss in the game, makes this boss my favorite (alongside the atmosphere and general vibe of killing this thing in a giant blizzard tornado)
That about sums it up
Thank you for making a version like this
I get chills and tear up (pun intended) every time i hear the dragon roost island theme in this song. Oot was my first game ever but WW was the first game i ever beat by myself. It holds such a special place in my heart and this battle evoked such intense memories and emotions when i first heard this.
Thank you for making this and my day.
Epic moment!!!!
2:56
😮😮😮
Colgera’s theme is the BEST!!!
This song is probably the best in all zelda series. Its absolutely gorgeous.
2:55 Heck yeaaaaaaaa
The only wrong thing about this boss fight, was that it was too short. You dive into one weak point, wait for him to appear under you, and shoot the other two with arrows. If you get the hang of it, the fight only lasts like 2 minutes.
Listening to this again makes me realise how awesome this theme is
During the battle I was too busy trying to defeat Colgera I didn't even hear the music
I've never played Wind Waker, but that little call back sounds fucking amazing
This is great! Will you do the rest of the boss themes??
Thanks for the comment! I can make that my priority.
The moment you knew Zelda bosses are back: this whole theme. Best take on Dragon Roost Island and a cool 3rd iteration of Molgera. Yes I'm including Molduga too. Functions almost the same like Molgera except you're airborne with the fun aspect of TOTK and BOTW's paragliding. You have a companion by your side. It's put in a Wind Temple like Wind Waker. Nintendo gave what you wanted and they didn't do it badly.
Everybody talks about the passage that make the connection to the rito village from TWW, but don’t forget about THAT part at 2:00
The third attack got me like

Zelda always has the best fkin music. Idk how, but each game has such timeless soundtracks that evoke instant nostalgia for something that isn't even there.
I've never played Windwaker, unfortunately, yet, I feel such a strong sense of longing when I hear this song.
When I first played Ocarina of Time, my favorite game of all time, I was barely a toddler. I remember watching my mother play the crap out of it, and I remember feeling that same longing every time I heard the intro music on boot-up.
I mean, this series captures something that is totally indescribable. It's amazing.
Souls music has the best
i pissed myself in fear when i accidentally found colgera on the depths i wasn’t ready🥲
nah i wish i could replay this bro the goosebumps
The depths has three Colgeras for this very reason
@@Bayle-the-Dread-Dragon i meant for the first time 😔
When you become the arrow
for me this its the best boss song
I just listen to the theme when I fight Colgera in the Depths. I didn't know Colgera's Theme when I beat Wind Temple. It was my first temple so I didn't know how good this was. I just plowed through Colgera without knowing the theme.😂😂😂
Is the fight repetitive and kinda boring? Yes.
Is this my favorite boss of the game just because of the music? Absolutely.
Say whatever you want about the fight itself, this bgm is UNDENIABLE.
The battle was easy, but the atmosphere made it felt like you were saving Hebra from the living embodiment of the frozen north’s unforgiving cold.
Bro that really do be seamless
They didnt have to go this hard but they did, they did for us
this is so peak
this reminds me of "Shriek and Ori" from Ori and the will of the wisps
