I've fought soul tyrant so many times while trying to beat him in radiant, i've basically learnt what he's saying
A very motivational speech from good ol' Soul Master
illager sounds
why the did i laugh at this ? 😂
Soul Scholars and Illagers have something in common
if we're going with the theory that Ravagers are experimented villagers, they both meddled with the lives of their kind
the soul sanctum is by far some of the best tonal whiplash i've seen in any game, and it succeeds not just the city of tears, but the entire game, up to this point, every area in this game up until how has had a music that feels whimsical and mysterious, like you were on some amazing adventure through a lost kingdom, this area was the way to remind you that the kingdom was abandoned for a reason, and the whole atmosphere of the soul sanctum says only one thing
"something terrible happened here"
More like something failed to suceed and now there are nothing but fog and white
Gave me chills

Maybe, idk tho
I love how in this song the melody is the exact same as in City of Tears, but the key and chords give the song a completely different color and feeling.
I think both are in the same key actually, that being Eb
@@hussyweissshutup1275 Mainly it's in C minor, but there are some modulations here and there
@@Giak17 oh ty. Never wouldve been able to notice on my own
That's what we call a leitmotif
The beginning sounds like stranger things lol
The theme you hear as you travel across the universe back to Soul Master because there's no checkpoint
It's fine tho since he's not hard.
but there are alot of shortcuts you can activate on the way
The walk of shame 😔

I absolutely love how this song conveys the twisted horrors of what was going down in this place. And omg that boss fight theme…..no words, it’s just so good
What went down in there?
@@dub7122 The Soul Sanctum scholars have been kidnapping Hallownest bugs and draining them of their soul (killing them) in an effort to cure the infection and become immortal. You can see mountains of corpses under the Soul Master's arena.
@@bend6919 Ayo wtf
@@bend6919 damn 😨
@@dub7122 There's also the sad implications of the spells you can acquire in the Sanctum. After you get Desolate Dive and return to the Ancestral Mound, the Snail Shaman who gave you Vengeful Spirit comments that Desolate Dive reminds him of his bad-tempered third uncle, meaning the Soul Master first got ahold of said uncle in order to force it out of him and use it in the first place. Then when you beat the second Soul Warrior behind the Elegant Door, there's ANOTHER Snail Shaman hooked up to machines, and it cries out and disappears to give you the Shade Soul.
Something tells me those two were far from the only Snail Shamans to be kidnapped and experimented on by the scholars in the Sanctum. Maybe the one in the Crystallized Mound (the fourth aunt of the one in the Ancestral Mound) sealed herself in crystal to avoid being taken.
Not the same without the loud-ass teleport and fireball sounds.
Soulball*
And the souls whispering
And grunts
And the "mmph" and "humph" and that loud ass breathing he does 😂

@@SourCoffeeExpert no gluten or dairy either!
I died laughing when I found out those weird bugs are called "Mistake".
According to the journal they used to be regular bug scholars of the sanctum that screwed up their soul experiments and turned into these amorphous things.
Same lol
omg literally me
me
I never identified this much with a random videogame enemy before.
Fun fact : When you just entered the Soul Sanctum, there is an arena that locks and you have to fight a soul twister.
The fun fact is that I died to him and thought it was a boss.
I was playing with some friends. One was gone and I was just exploring around, encountered it, and just let myself die so that I could fight it later.
Many days and most of Deepnest later, we happened upon that room again, remembered the whole thing, and proceeded to absolutely sweep the floor
I think most people did
Lmao, I thought the first soul twister was the soul master, I was really hyped after beating it thinking i'd actually beaten soul master.
@@BreadCrumbsAndBeaverSpitsame lmao

Oh hey what's this-
**loud asf vampire organ**
GOD
I feel that on a Personal Level
Eargasm
I ventured in on my first playthrough. And instantly regretted it.
Hello minos prime :3
Much like Sealed Vessel, this theme also seems to tell a story
The intro arpeggio plants Ab major in my head rather then C minor, which in turn exudes this feeling of beauty and wonder instead of creepy. To me, this reflects the wonder and beauty of eternal life, which was one of the goals of the scholars, and as the C sets in, changing it to C minor, it seems to induce desire, that want for eternal life. Or perhaps to stave off the infection?
Either way, with their goals in mind, it switches to F minor, almost as if to say: _"There has to be a way to achieve it"_
The Ab chord once again reflects the beauty of immortality, and the Eb seems to bring us back to their desire, while also adding desperation to it. The return to the F minor chord plays as they start brainstorming, and as we land on the G chord, they settle on their brutal, horrifying plan.
The full organ starts at 0:43 as they follow through with their plan, stealing the soul of others and injecting it right into themselves.
And the shifting arpeggios in the background seem the change as their plan appears to work more and more,
The key change at 1:40 seems to invoke melancholy. Perhaps some slight regret or guilt? I can imagine the soul master late at night at his work desk, while everyone else is asleep, silently crying over the crimes he committed, but still working to progress.
But then at 1:58, it's all revealed, and all for nothing. All the lives lost, the soul totems that were stolen, even the kidnapped snail shaman, all that for nothing. The plan was a failure from the very start. Now they're all infected, moving about their old sanctum like slugs, knowing that their plan failed and they never succeeded.
This needs so many more likes
What about part 2 the battle theme?
Best comment
@@fancyshoes002 That´s just madness. The infection has take total control of each and every single one of the members of the sanctum, including the master himself. Now they don´t have a will to break free. A voice to cry suffering. They only thing they have in mind is kill.
Kill the empty one.
And they´ll do whataver it takes to achieve it.
Funny words, magic man
3:10 The slightly off-beat notes help convey the true horror of what you're fighting against. This place used to be home to those who studied soul, only to be corrupted, disfigured, amalgamated into what you see in the fights with Soul Master and Soul Tyrant. They played with death and this is the result.
The track of the Soul Sactum perfectly conveys the feeling of the place. The creepy mysterious atmosphere, the enemies, the events that transpired there. All wrapped up in a creepy organ piece topped off with an epic orchestral boss theme. Perfection.
The fact that it has the melody of the city of tears put in a completely different context to give a completely different feeling is so cool
the sound of losing your 1000 geo for the third time
knowing the lore of this place, it reminds me of the true lab (undertale)
True, and in getting all of the endings the story for both of them is similar, trying to hear yes the power inside of love bodies.
Soul Sanctum reminds me only one thing(or two) - Healing Church/School of Mensis from Bloodborne. Both Soul Sanctum and Healing Church are groups of scholars who wanted to ascend by consuming supernatural substance but it lead them only to suffering of them and others. And like in case of School of Mensis Soul Sanctum leader was also obsessed with their goal, went mad and after death became imprisioned in dream world.
Ah yes, melted bodies that shouldn’t be alive. I’ve seen that twice now
some might disagree but this is my favorite OST
Some people disagree that this is your favorite OST?
just how ppl can not think this is one of the best OST from HK? its amazing
Same though, I find this to be one of the most underrated pieces from the OST
This is not your favorite OST, enter Hallownest is
People disagree because they haven't heard this masterpiece
2:08 calm
2:14 *soul twister approaching*
2:15 *soul twister near*
2:18 soul twister
Ah, what a calm-yet-sinister track. The second part really conveys that “I’m constantly running from at least 3 Soul Twisters at all time, walking into one room that I haven’t explored yet, then going all the way back to the bench to update the map, then maybe going back for another room, repeat process, then getting my butt kicked by Soul Master despite having Shade Soul, Abyss Shriek, Coiled Nail, a handful of useful charms, and literally 50 hours of experience. What.”
Can't believe the original upload is lost :( so many good comments gone.
Hopefully we'll see a lot of great new comments being made under these videos.
True, I always screenshot my entire 600+ playlist of videos because RUclips keeps takin down videos and I want to remember what they were
What happened to the original upload? D:
@@eggames859 The channel of the original uploader (IndiGo) has been terminated for copyright infringement.
@@Amellifera. does that mean Team Cherry themselves claimed it? The original videos had some great comments
when i entered soul sanctum for the first time i was like "this music sounds scary and special, this must be the final area of the game. i better go now"
That song is so powerful, lots of emotions in it
I agree... I CRIED to this okay?
2:15 for soul master theme!
At the end of the fight, I was the one who was headbutting the ground
I immediately pictured the Shrumal Ogres reading this lol
“I’m fine.”
“I HATE THE FLOOR!!!”
This song hits very similar to the Dungeon Theme of NES Zelda. This was one of my favourite locations in Hollow Knight.
Omg yes. I was waiting for someone to point it out
whoa, you're right!
Absolutely. I always thought this sounded similar to the Dungeon theme of NES Zelda
I think its a Pokémon mystery dungeon theme
This was the first hollow knight song I was introduced to, and remains my favorite Hollow Knight song.
I love this track so much
this is honestly the bit i fell in love with the game. I was kinda under equipped and I hadn't properly developed mechanics for this. I remember everything felt so scary and dangerous in here, I remember spending so long just getting past the soul warrior, thinking this was the end game. Good times.
This reminds me of the Zelda 1 dungeon theme, especially at 1:11. Also, I can't be the only one that struggled with the Soul Master fight, right?
You're not
I just beat him for the first time last night, and it probably took me 20+ tries to finish that little bugger off. Especially when the battle *kept going*! At first I was scared of going all the way through the Sanctum again, but then the Soul Twisters just got annoying. Muscle memory for the win.
the progression and a lot of areas of the song are almost identical, so I can't help but think maybe someone at Team Cherry is a Zelda enjoyer themselves, even if they didn't realize the similarity to the song when they made it!
I also get old school Zelda vibes from this song
No, you're not the only one that struggled with soul master
Trying to set up context for each hollow knight song in this playlist before the song ends:
Something about this place makes you feel unwelcome. As if something is watching you. You hear unnatural sounds all around you, and the blast of pure energy being released and hurtled towards you startles you out of your trance. You shudder at what must have been done to gain this kind of power. Surely something terrible. Like getting absorbed into a book with no end. A desperate attempt to finish something whos end doesnt exist.
I'll never forget my first playthrough. I didn't even finish it yet but exploring and discovering all places, although sometimes afraid, is a one-time memory. I can't wait for Silksong
3:23 I like how this part is just so menacing
My whole experience was... interesting.
If I recall correctly it started with a small boss, or perhaps one of the soul twisters. I at least thought it was a boss.
Beating the surprisingly easy boss and moving forward and suddenly it appears again. Beating it and another one appears later.
It was honestly a really fun concept that I really loved. A boss that you beat that suddenly just appears again later out of nowhere, out of the boss room as if trying to chase you.
And after that you face the so called boss that you beat over and over with it coming back each time. But this time at full power and kind of a true form.
If was amazing...
And later I discovered that those things that kept coming back were really just different and separate enemies from one another. And the big one is the master.
I was disappointed, my favourite boss and I love the place, but can still feel disappointed that what I felt like happening wasn't really the case.
same
Don’t forget the most important part. The echoes that have occurred for an untold millennia in a language foreign to the bugs of Hallownest. The ancient cries bearing the message,
“When will Silksong release?”
It sounds like mixture of vibes of church and heavily cemetery gives while it slowly turns into combat and madness theme

This is one of my favorites.
Why is the transition to Soul Master so smooth. How is the ambience so reminiscent of Castlevania but so unique. Why is the latter half of the song the best song I've ever heard???
*I like how Soul Masters theme is part of Soul Sanctum when it LITERALLY SHOULDNT BE*
I just remember running for my life trying to find the boss of this area while being chased by like 20 soul twister guys
I have a grudge against soul twister’s
Same
Kinda. They're cool enemies, but when there are too many of them, it gets annoying
@@user-yg6ki7ou2y you have a point
I hope we get less teleporting stuff in silksong
@@eriklarsen6790 well from gameplay we’ve seen so far, they haven’t shown much of anything magic related so that should be down to a minimum

4/4 (91x)
from 2:16 to the end
3/4 (128x)
Wow, I have never heard that second part before, it's so damn good
It plays during the Soul Master fight
@@shrekiscool4743 And Soul Tyrant IIRC
Pretty sure the Soul Master part is 12/8
Dude this song is probably my favorite non-bossfight music in any game
It does not need to bop this hard
This has so much Koyaanisqatsi and Philip Glass Vibes in general
That's exactly what I was thinking. I could see this song being in a Candyman movie.
*Beats Soul Master* :"Well that wasn't so bad, I wonder what happens if I use my Dream Nail on it-oh a parkou-OH"
“SHIT SHIT SHIT OH GOD-“
*”HMM! HMMM! HMMM”*
This boss was the biggest skill curve in the entire game for me. Such good memories of being stuck for a couple of nights and finally triumphing. Eventually 112% the game a few months later!
this theme just fills me with so much dread, every time i go through this area i feel unsafe. like something could pop out at any moment and kill me.
yet this is my favorite area in the game just because of this, very, theme.
2:11 why didn’t they do this in the actual game it would have worked so well
It’s soul masters theme
@@thereisanewchannel8239 in the actual game the music stops and gose straight to the boss theme but in the sound track once the main sole sanctum theme ends it ameditly gose into the boss theme
@@Godlymusic9958 yeah I see it, It would’ve sounded cool in the actual game.

2:36 fight
4:04 restart
4:16 defeat
how i feel after learning the little blob things are called mistakes
"I will not be defeated by a MISTAKE like you." as i stomp it to the ground
God I love organs (the instruments not the fleshy mechanisms in us)
Absolutely my favourite area theme in the entire game. So melancholic...
The Castlevanian part of the game
Motiv from City of Tears played by the adult, now fully on living in a zombified city while in a local sanctuary. Then infection bursts in through the stained glass.
Imagine the vessel ( the character) screaming and crying as he’s jumping while being chased by soul twisters.
You can just *feel* something messed up happened here, its like the atrocities that went on here weigh down on the music and atmosphere.
3:24-4:05 The best part for me🔥
THE GREATEST VIDEO GAME OST
3:08 good shit 👌 👍
No se que *decir* realmente, esto es *brillante.*
Soul Tyrant attempt 24: made it to second phase for the second time. Died a bit after however. Somehow I like lost Kin more.
After you're done you can attempt the suffering of Soul Tyrant Radiant.
Sure, I’ve just been cleaning up before p5
by a long way the best boss theme
"Dung defender has joined the voice channel"
Pure vessel, The Hollow knight, nkg, white defender, and hornet have joined the chat
Soul Sanctum and Sisters of Battle/Mantis Lords themes for me.
I’m not sure which I like more.
@@frosbeechill doma doma doma!
@@zataiyo6738 it's weird because doma means "at home" in Russian
Soul Tyrant is WAY better than Soul Master, simply because you can just give him another go at him once you die. I'll never forgive the Soul Sanctum's architects for not placing a single bench throughout the place.
I think thats a skill issue. Ever heard of the game punishing you for dying?
@@thefrogggy100 Uh yeah, that's called starting the fight over. Having to go through the Soul Sanctum all over again isn't a punishment, it's wasting my time
welcome you shame walked
I used benchwarp to place a bench before this boss but it was worthless since i beat him first try
This area made me realize the underlying hidden story of this game and started to make me question what happened in Hallownest. After falling to the 3rd shell pit I was realizing I was walking over literally corpses of not hundreds... Thousands who were sacrificed to soul haversting.
It shivered down my spine the moment my mind clicked to that fact.
Honestly my favorite soundtrack in the whole game.
I remember when I first got to the Soul Master, I thought at was near the end of the game...
When Soul Master went "HMPH! MMPH! *Teleport* HMPH!" I felt that
Soul Master traumatized me. I died so many times more than any boss fight I've ever encountered in the game. The most enjoyable part of Soul Sanctum is this music. It was like my company to calm me a bit to kill Soul Master for the 999999th time :)
Fr same with hornet... she literally must've killed me 53725472753848 times 😅
For me it ws the damn mantis lords specially the spikes I died A LOT and have'd to just go from that one anoying bench so many times I learnt the way to avoid everything with god like precision lol
Why tf does this theme make it seem like I'm about the fight the final boss of the game-
using this for a vampire castle encounter in my D&D campaign
His kingdom will fall
But I will live forever
Fun fact. Soul master’s name changes from Soul Master to Soul Tyrant after you fight his second phase
All of them do.
False Knight - Failed Champion
Dung Defender - White Defender
Broken Vessel - Lost Kin
Nosk - Winged Nosk
Mantis Lords - Sisters of Battle
Radiance - Absolute Radiance
Hollow Knight - Pure Vessel
@@uwukid8770 I mean when you see the lower house part of the arena, not the dream version.
@@PrimitiveAspid Oh? I don't recall it changing in there, I'll have to check it out.
The reason behind this is because when he dives and breaks the floor, the knight sees all the bodies of the dead bugs in the background so that's why his name changes meaning that the knight had a little respect for him, but it changed in the dive so thats why hes called a tyrant in the dream phase
@@lucasjaramillovargas9422 the knight never respected him. He doesn't have any emotions or feelings, he doesn't know what Respect is
This hits so hard and the storytelling in just one track is crazy especially for an indie studio. Thanks Chris Larkin and the whole gang in team cherry❤
This song does such a good job at putting you on edge when combined with the enemy difficulty
прошёл Half-life2 на собственном ноутбуке в этом году, когда мне было 6 лет я проходил первую часть на старом компьютере после прохождения гонарча компьютер сломался, долгие 13 лет я ждал и стал самостоятелен, купил ноутбук и прошёл обе части Half-life и как же замечательно слышать эту музыку через неделю в ютубе
Christopher Larkin casually composing one of the best video game soundtracks all by himself, what a GOAT.
this is so good
Hearing this theme for the first time, high af, fighting so hard to not die against those soul douches. It was such a hype when I reached that second part. God how I wish I could replay this gem for the first time
I'm playing it for the first time now and just cleared this area. Amazing that I've gone this long without playing this game.
Not a day goes by where I don’t wish soul master had his own ost, it’s such a banger
i love how all the area music in the game before this is very light, and then this theme comes in and lets you know that the scholars did some fucked up shit. sm's theme sounds so evil i have never stank faced so hard at an orchestral piece
In my personal perspective, the soul sanctum represents the the dark rituals and sacrifices and the poor results, while soul master theme kinda represents the bosses perspective of his failure to stop the infection.
Me: {beats the boss and goes to Soul Sanctum, and immediately likes the music}
Also me: NOPE WHAT THE FRICK ALL THE ENEMIES ARE INSANE I'M OUT OF HERE
souls go so well with organs
This is so sad the literal emotion in the music and the setting in which this piece takes place. Chefs kiss
2:01 best part
i died so many times to the soul twister dipshits only to first try Soul Master
this song really emphasizes the *Vania* in Metroidvania
2:02 this part to me always sounded like the waves part of interstellar
I don't know why but the biggie ingredient is actually pretty sad, especially since some sad things have happened like hollow knight silksong was delayed yet again
Was the hollow knight sound track deleted or something
YES. The original channel IndiGo, has been terminated for copyright infringement, I suspect for also having Nintendo OST uploaded.
