  • ‘Dark Souls III’ originally composed by Yuka Kitamura.
    Transcribed/arranged for virtual instruments.
    Sorry for the wait! This one took a lot longer than anticipated and Elden Ring releasing didn't exactly help productivity either...
    The dense arrangement of the original piece can make it difficult to hear precisely what each voice/instrument is doing at times; thus my transcription relies heavily on guesswork and personal arrangement decisions.
    Regardless, I'm fairly pleased with the end result and hope it does the original justice.

    Elden Ring's main theme is utterly fantastic, but DS3's is on a totally different level.
    I wonder if we'll ever get a Fromsoft game like DS3 ever again. That mix of an utterly and totally destitute and decrepit world juxtaposed with this style of epic, heroic, yet corrupted cathedral music.

    • @bumblebeepotato
      @bumblebeepotato 2 года назад +35

      Elden ring is a new style of theme for Fromsoft, one of great ambition. Dark souls 3 is the culmination of their main series, its going to hit that much harder. Give them time and they'll do it again.
