Gaster themes trying to not use megalovania as their main motif and not being a dark metal rock cover with dubstep pieces and ear screeching choirs in between challenge (impossible)
Amazing, I love the interpolation of the "Freedom" leitmotif that's in Jevil and Spamton's themes, along with the tail end of "Don't Forget." He's "with you in the dark," indeed.

@@myezza i’m not entirely sure which one it is, it might be girl next door or the chase. girl next door was my first thought but you’re saying the chase, and now i can kinda hear both
@@mrblakeboy1420 they do sound similar, but the chase works better in context as its melody likely comes from a previous toby fox song, “nightmare knight”… and some theorise gaster to be the knight. but lost girl could work due to gaster and dess being linked in the community too :)
1:10 This part feels like you're searching for your friend in a foggy field or forest, perfectly captures the feeling of loss, fear and despair when it comes to your friend going missing.
I like how it uses Deltarune Leitmotifs. Its as if the version we got in Undertale was so empty because we wouldn't get the Deltarune references yet, and now that we have context the theme actually feels complete.
Okay so this is an amazing cover, I wanna say that right out of the gate But honestly at this point with how much Toby's hyped up Gaster by barely talking about him, when Gaster actually DOES show up, I entirely expect his full theme to either be an all-out orchestral score that puts all the fanworks to shame Or Gaster ends up being some deadbeat stoner on Sans's couch and his "real" theme is just "Gaster's Theme" played poorly on a xylophone Toby's either gonna make this the biggest climax of our generation or something so anticlimactic it becomes a meme
Gaster is likely not a royal scientist in Deltarune, thus falling into your second category (a bit more serious than that but still anticlimactic). There would be no reason to have a scientist researching experimentss on determination and how to kill humans, and looking at Alphys, he isn't a royal scientist but just a science teacher. But it's still possible if it's the Gaster from Undertale instead and Deltarune is an experiment or he got into Deltarune when he was shattered in time and space somehow.
@@CompactStarundertale was basically a test for deltarune, which was always the game Toby planned to make, so why wouldn't Gaster still be a scientist? he still talks like he is and his tweets about deltarune and it being disguised as a survey all really feels like scientific stuff...
It really will be such a payoff when we actually see Gaster. It’ll be such a strange moment, the better part of 10 years in the making. I feel like it’ll be really unnerving
@@SyerasSanctum with how he's handled in undertale and the fact undertale was made to test out deltarune i'd say it's not far fetched to think Gaster in undertale is a living deltarune teaser
“Star” being included here is the cherry on top. The unused songs for some reason make me feel very uneasy, just like the unused stuff in Undertale, especially the rooms. I don’t know, it’s like something you’re not supposed to see, something not supposed to exist, something forgotten, and it’s perfect here
I love how the song actually sounds less sinister as it progresses. Probably could refer to the idea Gaster isn't actually a malevolent force. Just the observer, of everything. Seeing, but never doing. He's here, but he isn't. He's not too different from Chara in that way. Except Chara was a resentful child, Gaster was an amazingly talented and intelligent being. I would assume he has good intentions, it's easier for an adult to rationalize situations than it is for a child. I always thought of him as the one who uses our soul at the end of genocide to recreate the world. Chara obviously couldn't have done it. Humans can't use Human Souls.
I've always thought that Gaster is benevolent; that he's somehow trying to help. It just doesn't feel like Toby to create a spooky character and then NOT subvert expectations and just make him an enemy. It also just seems somehow cooler that Gaster was always working behind the scenes or something.
@@parallax256I think it might not be as cut and dry as that. Like yeah, Gaster probably isn’t just a sadistic mad scientist figure (and if the theory that half of the True Lab entries are his and not Alphys’s are anything to go by, he definitely on some level cares), but I can’t imagine that whatever happened to him to make him this way is… alright to him. I imagine Gaster as an honest man turned desperate and confused, a being trapped in the edges of reality who wants nothing more than to ultimately LIVE once again, to be FREE. And somewhere down the line, he might have started to lose sight of anything else but that. Also factoring in the 6 motif, perhaps connecting Gaster thematically to Lucifer, the “fallen angel” (“fell” into his creation and all that)… yeah. At least that’s what I imagine. A twisted, tragic soul who may have meant well once, who has been through things no sentient being ever should be. A patient, calculating force that has ruined the livelihoods of several people, but who probably just as much rationalizes it all as some kind of “well it’ll all be okay in the end right? I’m not doing any PERMANENT harm… right?”
Chara wasn’t human anymore - they were the same type of being as Flowey. Thus, after gaining all the LV of monsters and getting 7 human souls (including Frisk’s), they reset the world
@@tanner201x8 Proof? I didn't see anything showing Chara was the same as Flowey. Yes, they weren't technically human anymore, but they weren't a monster, and I doubt they even could absorb the 7 human souls. Plus, if Chara did take Frisk's/our soul, I doubt they wouldn't be powerful enough to delete the timeline entirely, though it's strange that they were able to delete it in the first place. Also, you saying reset instead of delete makes me feel like you didn't fully understand Undertale.
@@WillTheNetherKingFarmer I interpreted Chara as a mirror of Flowey - he is a monster with no soul, and Chara became a human with no soul. Flowey came back with determination from Alphys experiment on the flower, as did Chara from Frisk falling on their grave. Flowey was able to absorb monster souls because even the though Asriel was a monster, when he became Flowey he had no soul, and thus could absorb any souls he wanted. If you follow my interpretation of Chara then the same applies to them. Even though they were human in life, in death they have no soul and thus can absorb human and monster souls. They were able to destroy the timeline entirely because, in my interpretation, they absorbed not only all the LV from killing monsters from the Genocide route, but also the six human souls along with Frisk’s, making them more powerful than Omega Flowey, who himself showed he was able to toy with reality with only six human souls. Kinda rude you threw in this idea that I didnt “understand” Undertale, my favorite game of all time
I absolutely love how you incorporated other motifs that themselves use the gaster’s theme motif! The callback to the freedom theme fits so naturally, and the don’t forget melody adds a lot to the song!
I like the addition of Ooo. Obviously, the Freedom and Don't Forget leitmotifs fit perfectly, but that one little drone fits so perfectly as a backing, especially given its connections to the CORE.
I don't know why but I can definitely see this being for something before the Encounter with Gaster finally like let's say a Corridor between Corridors just like there can be a Void within a Void
*you enter a room* *music starts playing.* *there's a man here* *you turn around* *there's no door here.* Mystery man : So, you've finally arrived, found me, discovered the mastermind, or whatever you call me. Interesting. Very very interesting. Despite my best efforts to stop the timelines and universes to reach an end, there's still *one* anomaly. Impossible to get rid of. And if by a miracle i or something else manages to do it... It *swaps* . From a body, to another. From a timeline to another. *from a universe to a alternative one.* It gets me thinking. The anomaly... Can be someone. An entity. ... Don't look at me this way. After all... The anomaly could be you. No. Not the vessel. Not this "Kris" You're using. I'm talking about *YOU.* Edit : did this cuz i was inspiring, but is a bit cringe, sorry bout' that
everybody's talking about the freedom and dont forget motif but I also liked how you added the "Lost Girl" motif because Dess is hinted to be trapped in the void just like Gaster based on the hidden code. also Noelle has some pretty interesting connections to gaster
i found some leitmotifs in here 0:17 - "Ooo" from the OST 0:34 - "THE WORLD REVOLVING" 1:17 - first few notes of "Don't Forget" 1:27 "star.ogg", an unused song presumed to be about gaster
I imagine this playing as you complete Deltarune in windowed mode, and then the entire monitor screen is getting covered in black as Gaster shows up in the center to give you a speech
on my 3rd run which i think was neutral cause i only wanted to murder or save them i found the gaster door and after i just googled like "gray door undertale" then i found out theres lore
Dude this is so awesome. I wanna animate something to it. I’m not sure what I came in expecting but holy shit did you deliver on the title. It builds so subtly with the gradually layering melodies becoming countermelodies and eventually baselines that you don’t even really register it until halfway through
[*You open an odd grey door to find a man at the end of the room.] [*He seems to be in suspended animation.] [*...] [*You walked up and touched the man.] [*His eyes lit up, then he dissappeared.] [*You look down at our hand, it looks like it's disappearing too.] [*You turn around to leave the room, the door is gone.] [*The ominous grey room slowly envelopes into nothingness...] [*Dark...] [*Darker...] [*Yet darker...] [*The darkness keeps growing.] [*The shadows cutting deeper.] [*Eventually, it's nothing but a pitch black void.] [*You try to call out to a friend, you couldn't speak.] [*You try to call out to the mysterious man, you still couldn't speak.] [*The unbreakable silence is deafening...] [*Suddenly, the man appears before you.] [*But you feel like he's been there the entire time, you just didn't notice him.] [*More like... you weren't able to notice him.] [*You ponder where you are... you try to move.] [*You feel like you're stuck in place, or... you didn't have a body to move in the first place.] [*You look down, your body is gone.] [*You look back up, the man is also gone.] [*Everything is silent, everything is dark, you can't feel anything, you can't move anything, you can't say anything.] [*You've finally realized that you've faded into nothingness.] [*Only the void is what remains.]
this is one of my favorite extensions to gaster’s theme. there are so many tiny details that made me so happy such as 0:18 undertale elevator sound !?!? 0:35 freedom motif!! this is one of my favorite ways for it to be utilized in a gaster fan-theme 1:13 don’t forget !!!! this theme sounds like it could actually be in the game fr
i also liked noelle's motif there. It might seem random but it makes perfect sense when you learn about dess and all the secret paralles and hints that she has with him.
THE HOUR IS GROWING LATE LATER THAN YOU REALISE YOU THREE, YOUR QUEST IS NOTHING MORE THAN A SHADOW A TEST I SEE YOUR DOUBT YOUR STRUGGLE YOUR TURMOIL I'M SORRY I'M SO SORRY BUT YOU'RE LIVING A FANTASY
Gaster was appointed as Asgore's main scientist. Everyone's so quick to assume he has to be some sort of villain... but what if he's just this random nerdy guy with no secret motives?
@@blackholeguy1529 Well, the latest Deltarune newsletter includes a secret Valentine's message that *might* be from Gaster. If it is him, he's definitely a silly fella.
I mean he is a mysterious omniscient being that talks in really formal, detached and scientific way, is basically the ingame creator of Deltarune(the game), has control over the save menu and various other game aspects, has driven, at this point, 2 innocent people to madness, is experimenting with darkness and souls and real(ingame) lives, and is hijacking Toby Fox's twitter. He is not a villain in the sense that I don't think he's evil, he is just a scientist running experiments that involve the lives of innocent bystanders, with no care/empathy/feeling shown towards the people he impacts. He ruins peoples lives to see what happens, essentially. So he is, in my opinion a villain that needs to be stopped in some way, but not really "evil".
This sounds like what happens in the Metroid games on the title screen If you own Metroid you should open the game and just stay on the title screen for a minute! Or You look it up and see for yourself Edit: For those who don't know what I mean, in a few Metroid games, if you stay on the title screen for long enough, the main very repetitive melody (like gasters theme) will transition into the full version of the song. Meaning most players never hear the full song cause the first like minute of it is the exact same melody over and over again
at the end of the day we dont even know if the mysterious man sprite is gaster so i say we wait, and wait, and wait, until eventually space in itself implodes, thus scattering us across the universe (we can meet him there)
i’m gonna put lyrics to all of the leitmotifs as an excuse to listen to this again 0:00 no lyrics (gaster singing) 0:20 roa…ring…dark…ness 0:35 your…journey will fin’lly end…another is beginning; you have no choice, yet you use your voice to (yell into your dark surroundings) destroy those who should stop you 0:52 soon…now that i have emerged…hell’s roar will bubble from the (depths) no one has choice, no one has a voice in (the ide-al world i’m making) to stop my true intentions now (noelle singing) 1:10 we have to stop the roaring, so i’ll, be with you in the darkness (ralsei singing) 1:18 now the light is running low, and the shadows quickly grow-ing ( *dess* / _kris_ duet) 1:27 *i* / _we_ fell into the great darkness, yet it is now all-consuming
duuude, this is genuinely super unnerving, it has such a creepy undertone to it, this is amazing i love how you mixed in the freedom motif, this is really good
Fun fact: the symbols that gaster speaks in (called windings) have a symbol for every letter in the English alphabet. If you spell “egg”, like the eggs the man behind the tree gives us, you get “👆👈👉” Which translates to a certain chess pieces’ movements. Can anyone guess which one that is? That’s right The Horse Also referred to as *The Knight* *The Roaring Knight*
this is accurate, everyone that has lisened to toby fox know that he only did make like 5 songs and the rest are just frankenstain(s monster) blends so it makes sense why the world is revolving and i think a town called hometown would be in it, tho i was kinda hoping untuil next time/dont forget would be in it but i did end up loving it either way so i cant be mad :D
@@Karxy i feal realy stupid... I literally checked as well. Ig i missed it and also i havent realy lissend to the unused ones but thanks il check it out!
It really fits the theme! Immediately you imagine huge mechanisms, machines and an intense feeling of serenity in the void, and you really feel that you are dissolving between the real worlds and voids...
The thought of Gaster legitimately appearing EVENTUALLY gives me goosebumps...
what do you mean? he's already here.
@@WirelessMagicianbut that's just a theory... AAA GAAAAAAAAAAAME THEEEORY!!!

everybody's talking about the freedom and dont forget motif but I also liked how you added the "Lost Girl" motif because Dess is hinted to be trapped in the void just like Gaster based on the hidden code. also Noelle has some pretty interesting connections to gaster
The use of "Star" is genius! What goes well with an unused song? ANOTHER unused song! Really adds to the otherworldly vibe that Gaster exudes..
technically gaster's theme isn't unused
i found some leitmotifs in here
0:17 - "Ooo" from the OST
0:34 - "THE WORLD REVOLVING"
1:17 - first few notes of "Don't Forget"
1:27 "star.ogg", an unused song presumed to be about gaster
I imagine this playing as you complete Deltarune in windowed mode, and then the entire monitor screen is getting covered in black as Gaster shows up in the center to give you a speech
“wait.. WAIT NO.. THAT CAN’T BE! THAT’S IMPOSSIBLE THAT’S IMPOSSIBLE!”
plot twist: that's actually Toby's alternate channel, spoiling chapter 7 boss fight music for us
Okay, the star quote hit hard for no reason
on my 3rd run which i think was neutral cause i only wanted to murder or save them i found the gaster door and after i just googled like "gray door undertale" then i found out theres lore
That grey door has more of a history than most would dare to delve into, young soul...
i REALLY love the ending section, how it just kinda feels dreamy and surreal and almost oddly comforting? instead of sinister
Really good work, actually sounds like something Toby would make.

Dude this is so awesome. I wanna animate something to it. I’m not sure what I came in expecting but holy shit did you deliver on the title. It builds so subtly with the gradually layering melodies becoming countermelodies and eventually baselines that you don’t even really register it until halfway through
[*You open an odd grey door to find a man at the end of the room.]
[*He seems to be in suspended animation.]
[*...]
[*You walked up and touched the man.]
[*His eyes lit up, then he dissappeared.]
[*You look down at our hand, it looks like it's disappearing too.]
[*You turn around to leave the room, the door is gone.]
[*The ominous grey room slowly envelopes into nothingness...]
[*Dark...]
[*Darker...]
[*Yet darker...]
[*The darkness keeps growing.]
[*The shadows cutting deeper.]
[*Eventually, it's nothing but a pitch black void.]
[*You try to call out to a friend, you couldn't speak.]
[*You try to call out to the mysterious man, you still couldn't speak.]
[*The unbreakable silence is deafening...]
[*Suddenly, the man appears before you.]
[*But you feel like he's been there the entire time, you just didn't notice him.]
[*More like... you weren't able to notice him.]
[*You ponder where you are... you try to move.]
[*You feel like you're stuck in place, or... you didn't have a body to move in the first place.]
[*You look down, your body is gone.]
[*You look back up, the man is also gone.]
[*Everything is silent, everything is dark, you can't feel anything, you can't move anything, you can't say anything.]
[*You've finally realized that you've faded into nothingness.]
[*Only the void is what remains.]

Dang a Gaster’s theme related video posted in 2023? That’s surprising anyway this is awesome!
It's not as uncommon as you'd think, but it is an oddly recent development.
From Deltarune continuing, Gaster will likely appear in media more and more again..
2024 now.
I am 2024.
You 2023ers won't know other info about it.
The freedom motif sounds 🔥🔥🔥
I think I know what luigi mutant is your favorite
Love the "freedom" motif in this
this is one of my favorite extensions to gaster’s theme. there are so many tiny details that made me so happy
such as
0:18 undertale elevator sound !?!?
0:35 freedom motif!! this is one of my favorite ways for it to be utilized in a gaster fan-theme
1:13 don’t forget !!!!
this theme sounds like it could actually be in the game fr
i also liked noelle's motif there. It might seem random but it makes perfect sense when you learn about dess and all the secret paralles and hints that she has with him.
THE HOUR IS GROWING LATE
LATER THAN YOU REALISE
YOU THREE, YOUR QUEST
IS NOTHING MORE THAN
A SHADOW
A TEST
I SEE YOUR DOUBT
YOUR STRUGGLE
YOUR TURMOIL
I'M SORRY
I'M SO SORRY
BUT YOU'RE
LIVING A FANTASY
I love the ‘Star’ motif!
Pov: you stayed in the song player for a long time
bro that transition to the girl next door to don’t forget was crazy
The world revolving is a really good choice of a motif, jevil has a lot of connections with gaster.
Finally another person that doesn't think the freedom motif will apply to every boss
@@continental_consumeryou saw that one video too right?
Bro doesn't know about the Freedom leitmotif.
@@ChaosCha0s You'll likely be wrong, though.
@@thedigiboi Blame it on Jevil being one of the few pre-UT DR characters.
Gaster was appointed as Asgore's main scientist. Everyone's so quick to assume he has to be some sort of villain... but what if he's just this random nerdy guy with no secret motives?
Lame af
true what if hes a silly fella
@@blackholeguy1529 Well, the latest Deltarune newsletter includes a secret Valentine's message that *might* be from Gaster. If it is him, he's definitely a silly fella.
I mean he is a mysterious omniscient being that talks in really formal, detached and scientific way, is basically the ingame creator of Deltarune(the game), has control over the save menu and various other game aspects, has driven, at this point, 2 innocent people to madness, is experimenting with darkness and souls and real(ingame) lives, and is hijacking Toby Fox's twitter. He is not a villain in the sense that I don't think he's evil, he is just a scientist running experiments that involve the lives of innocent bystanders, with no care/empathy/feeling shown towards the people he impacts. He ruins peoples lives to see what happens, essentially. So he is, in my opinion a villain that needs to be stopped in some way, but not really "evil".
Everything about his nature screams eldritch horror.
I don't think he's good by any means
This sounds like what happens in the Metroid games on the title screen
If you own Metroid you should open the game and just stay on the title screen for a minute! Or You look it up and see for yourself
Edit: For those who don't know what I mean, in a few Metroid games, if you stay on the title screen for long enough, the main very repetitive melody (like gasters theme) will transition into the full version of the song. Meaning most players never hear the full song cause the first like minute of it is the exact same melody over and over again
at the end of the day we dont even know if the mysterious man sprite is gaster so i say we wait, and wait, and wait, until eventually space in itself implodes, thus scattering us across the universe (we can meet him there)
I love the deltarune leitmotifs you used throughout this!
i can never unhear this in the world revolving and my brain tries to hear what isn't there
Gaster: “the real Deltarune was the friends we made along the way”
Dark Darker yet darker... SANS OPEN GODDAMN LIGHTS IT'S SO DARK!
Even with all the references too Deltarune before Deltarune, if Gaster had a theme this would definitely be it
The ""freedom"" leitmotif is very well placed 😮
this feels like it could be apart of the ost
If SharaX's Dark Darker yet Darker is Gaster's BIG SHOT, then this is his Deal Gone Wrong
proper chills, great job man.
i’m gonna put lyrics to all of the leitmotifs as an excuse to listen to this again

@@normalLaSerpienteCopada what the fuck is wrong with you
this goes hard
ur so creative!
To express how much I love this, I liked every current comment. Edgy Truck, thank you for making this.
Remember son, dying is...
If you ever remaster this you should totally add "The Core"s' leitmotif
finally, a song that is not just the og theme with a rock cover over it
i can imagine this in the true lab
edit: its been a year and im just now realizing there's deltarune motifs
This is weirdly chill for me, especially on 1:09 here. I can fell asleep to this melody..
I can’t believe they added my dad to undertale
this is the best song ever, it has the deltarune motif and also gives me goosebumps as i remembered the motif
bangs as always my man
The motifs in this are so good
Idk why but this sounds so oddly like a theme from will you snail at some parts like it's kinda eerie
This is legitimately amazing!
duuude, this is genuinely super unnerving, it has such a creepy undertone to it, this is amazing
i love how you mixed in the freedom motif, this is really good
Yep, thats gasters theme, oooh, the world revoling, and with you in the dark
“beware the man who speaks in hands”
Fun fact: the symbols that gaster speaks in (called windings) have a symbol for every letter in the English alphabet. If you spell “egg”, like the eggs the man behind the tree gives us, you get “👆👈👉”
Which translates to a certain chess pieces’ movements. Can anyone guess which one that is?
That’s right
The Horse
Also referred to as
*The Knight*
*The Roaring Knight*
Holy shit your right
unique :D I like that you really tried to make this sound like Undertale music, integrating parts of Snowdin and Don't Forget.
this is accurate, everyone that has lisened to toby fox know that he only did make like 5 songs and the rest are just frankenstain(s monster) blends so it makes sense why the world is revolving and i think a town called hometown would be in it, tho i was kinda hoping untuil next time/dont forget would be in it but i did end up loving it either way so i cant be mad :D
i coulnt realy tell if/what the song all the way at the end was tho,
@@MUCK-the-monster-addict The ending is Don't Forget and Star, an unused song from Undertale
@@Karxy i feal realy stupid... I literally checked as well. Ig i missed it and also i havent realy lissend to the unused ones but thanks il check it out!
i love the inclusion of mus_star at the end
This deserves way more views dude this is amazing

@@sillypinkmoth i have found my kin
i LOVE the deltarune motif in this song, and this is almost exactly how i imagined this
This is fire af
This sends chills down my spine.
I'm RARELY scared by music,yet you scared me.
It also feels faithful to gaster and toby fox themselves.
Well done.
This is just really nice
It really fits the theme! Immediately you imagine huge mechanisms, machines and an intense feeling of serenity in the void, and you really feel that you are dissolving between the real worlds and voids...
fun fact i just discovered that if you play gaster's theme on piano slowly it sounds like respite
I just realized that the Random Encounters song, "Stay Determined" is literally the Gaster theme.
