For some context, many of the tracks you pointed out leitmotifs in after Nightmare King were actually remixes of previous battle themes for the Godmaster DLC. Sisters of Battle was an arrangement of Mantis Lords, Daughter of Hallownest was an arrangement of Hornet, and White Defender was an arrangement of Dung Defender. Thanks for sharing this with us all today!
Pale Court is a remix of White Palace. With a more stressed and anguished Lietmotif. It's like an emotional roller coaster. First calm, then stress, next anguish and agony, and then calm again. Pretty accurate description of Hallownest's history
For how wonderful the Pure Vessel song was, it's hard to believe that it plays during one of the most challenging fights in the game. An absolutely amazing song for a glorious battle.
@@huwfollantyearl6726 I mean, I watched a few playthroughs and a couple of them sort of pieced together some of the story by the end of the game by actually thinking over dialogue and seeing some comments on their videos. And then they watched mossbag
I love the concept of dream fights being what the boss thinks about themselves, the ideal self and the fact that the most self-centered narcissist guy in the game (Zote) becomes the strongest boss cuz he genuinely believes he is 😂
You mentioned the DLC soundtrack upping the energy: That's probably because most of the new themes are boss music (in a number of cases even 'upgraded' boss music) while the original soundtrack had a lot more environmental backgrounds.
@ilsh1ro370 meh, only the spike floors and orbs are the real problem. Horizontal swords can be a pain if you don't manage your space and abilities well
It was great to see you experience more of Christopher Larkin's mind at work! Hollow Knight definitely stands out from many other soundtracks. Also, as a guitar coach, you may have a special interest in the soundtrack of Hades, another stellar indie game with another bombastic soundtrack!
@@MusicTheoryforGamers I'm so glad the Hollow Knight franchise is getting more acknowledgment from more professional artists like yourself, 😄. ‼️✋-I would like to make a request on you listening to another beloved Metroid-Vania Series with a beautiful duology-soundtrack of "Ori..." - 1st Game is "...and the Blind Forest" & "...and the Will of the Wisps." Thank you very much, and hope you will have a good week. 😊🙏
I would absolutely love to watch you hear the Outer Wilds soundtrack. (Not Outer Worlds) It's a perfect mix of post-rock, folk, and ambient music all wrapped up in a really novel sci-fi package.
I was thinking of suggesting this too (Outer Wilds is my most favourite game and has my favourite OST) but if he has any plans of playing it then he should definitely do that first, because the track names and the music itself are pretty spoilery
@@nathanplumb3782 Vespa didn't train her. The original idea was that Vespa trained her, hence the name, but there's no indication of this fact in-game. Originally the Hive was part of Deepnest (when this idea was conceived) but then it was later moved to the other side of the map.
@@RobinRhombus2 that explains why I never heard that. I did know about the kingdoms edge being a part of the deep nest originally, so I can see how that could maybe be the case.
The fact that pure vessel plays during one of the 3 hardest fights in the entire game is such a cool thing. It almost adds a weight to the fight; you know what the vessel is, and you know what it becomes (sealed vessel) but seeing it in all its glory, the song is so good at showing that glory. Great video.
The thing I love most about this soundtrack is the uniqueness. Each of those times you look surprised are the best. Like the Shaq face meme, just over and over. A glorious taste of the unique and masterful style Christopher Larkin put into this game. Love this OST to death.
Pale court is 10/10 theme its so pretty and when you know the lore of the game you can really feel like your watching whats happening happen (spoilers) like listening to it you can really feel that the kingdon is crumbling or at the start theres the kingdom standing tall and you hear it reach its ultimate demise
Grimm, especially Nightmare Grimm, is considered by many to be the hardest boss in the game (even thought he's only a DLC!!). And his theme SLAPS, I'm so glad you got to hear it!
I know it's an odd recommendation but I'd love for you to react to the terraria soundtrack. I think it has such a unique style of music that mixes its orchestra with its digital bit sounds super well.
For the next time, could you do the soundtrack of Ori and the Blind forest, and then Ori and the Will of the Wisps? They have a *phenomenal* fairy-tale feeling and are played by a full orchestra, the first one has that whole mystical forest vibe through and through, combined with a sense of "The world might be literally dead, but that's not for long," and the sequel is just a generally amazing metroidvania mixed bag of epic adventures.
Grimm Troupe and Nightmare King are probably my favorite game themes ever, and the crowd cheering when he turns into a balloon makes the fight so much more enjoyable
Please compare Decisive Battle to Collector's Theme, probably you will smile or even laugh + After seeing The Hollow Knight's battle and then Pure Vessel's and hearing the music (Sealed Vessel and Pure Vessel) you might feel sadness mixed with happiness especially when you know the lore
i'd like to point out that calling any of these dlc is, at the very least, incredibly misleading. they're free content packs that came automatically with updates to the game. they're more akin to minecraft updates or celeste chapter 9 than anything you'd normally consider dlc. in fact, it's impossible to play hollow knight on console without the so-called dlc.
Team cherry themselves calls them DLCs though, and the term still applies. Don’t get me wrong I’m genuinely grateful they’re free and this integrated into the game. But saying DLC isn’t misleading and or nefarious.
@@firechaser4095 not nefarious, no, but definitely misleading. dlc stands for "downloadable content", and using it to describe a free update that you don't even have a choice in on console is just flat out incorrect.
I suggest the soundtrack from super Mario Galaxy maybe. It’s fantastically orchestrated. May be a bit too mainstream for a reaction though. Otherwise try dead cells
I really like it when you talk about the different elements of the songs, even tho I don't know much about music theory. I think it would be really cool if you tried predicting what type of moments, places, or characters are connected with the music. I don't know about you, but I can get vivid imagery from good video game music. Also, I remember someone recommended the Mother 3 soundtrack, which I definitely agree with (it's probably my 2nd favorite game after Hollow Knight). Though Earthbound (Mother 2) also has a cool and weird soundtrack.

Love how much you felt this OST, Larkin did an amazing job. This is a bit of an out-there request so I'm not sure it'd get much support, but I'd love to see you take a look at the soundtrack to Noita. It's one of the most guitar-focused video game soundtracks I've heard that's also not melody- or riff-focused; it's a lot of post-rock and jazz-rock jams and soundscapes, and I thought that was a really interesting way to approach a soundtrack. Cheers!
The Grimm Troupe and Nightmare King are undoubtedly my favorite video game tracks of all time, Christopher Larkin did a phenomenal job on these pieces.
Another great game with beautiful music is Gris. Is about the loss and grieve of someone you love( in her case is her mother) The game is about finding your colors and voice( the purpose to continue living without that person in your life) again because you lost them.
Bloodborne soundtrack might be a roller coaster, maybe you could listen to that as well. Loving these videos/lives, just discovered your channel, keep up the great work 😊
23:09 this part still gives me chills cause I once did radiant hornet sentinel with invisible character(skin mod) and usually it plays when hornet has around 1/3 of her health
Your observation on Hornet's piece sounding like 3 separate things happening at once makes so much sense, even if incidental - the character is born of 3 different worlds, with 3 different 'parents'
I'm happy to see that you enjoy these soundtracks. Undertale is a game very near and dear to me so it's always nice to see people listen and like the soundtrack. I know you get alot of requests, but just wanted to ask if you could listen to the Omori soundtrack. It's a fantastic soundtrack and game. (Tho some of the tracks aren't exactly musical since it's technically a horror game).
Hollow knight ost is really amazing, I love the albums Especially awesome during the game I'd definitely love to see you react to the Celeste ost albums aswell
As soon as he talks about Lion King I get an ad for a Disney movie Good video! I hope you'll listen to Silksong's ost whenever it comes out (eventually)
The Man on the Internet did a really cool version of the Grimm Troupe where he added his own original lyrics. I’d definitely go and check it out at some point
The fact that someone without knowledge of the story said during the "daughter of hollownest" track: it's like three different realms, let you just understand the talent of the composer about combining music and storytelling For those who doesn't know: hornet (the character which the ost was composed for) is the daughter of a king of a reign and the queen of another one, plus she actually lived a part of her life in a third one
Fantastic soundtrack. I always enjoy seeing people react to these songs. I think you'd enjoy listening to the Hyper Light Drifter soundtrack. A mix of piano, electronic, and ambient music that absolutely blew me away with the sound design. You should check it out!
Hello, i've been following you for a while and i absolutely love your content. I've also played both Deltarune/Undertale and Hollow Knight and their ost it's just a masterpiece. Also i think it would be interesting for you to react to others musicians or bands music
I think you should go for Ori and the Will of the Wisps soundtrack! It's probably my favorite of any game i've ever played, and if you liked Hollow Knight, you'd most likely love this one.
Nice video! I was waiting for Thai one ^^. A bit of a suggestion, this is a lesser known game, but I've personally played it and the music for it was amazing, especially for the boss fights! It's transformers devastation. Dunno if you have any interest in it, but it definitely could be fun to listen to the soundtrack.
I really like your videos, I found them recently out of no where and they’ve actually been really entirely Ngl. I do have a suggestion for an ost you could do and that A Hat In Time. It’s an indie game and it’s ost is incredibly so I was hoping you could do it at some point^^
the pale court seems to be the song of hollow knights story. i won't spoil it, but as you can hear from the music, it's very tragic. the story is never explicitly told, but some have pieced it together, so if you wanna see the story check out a youtuber called mossbag!
as a very difficult battle game, hollow knights music serves it incredibly well. hearing them on their own is amazing, but just imagine hearing sisters of battle while your dodging three incredibly fast leader mantis warrior ladies where you only ever have just an inch to dodge things and one little mistake or one pixel off and you get hit. oh, and you didn't have a lot of hp. if you don't have charms that up your hp and if you find all the mask shards hidden in difficult places throughout the map, you can only get hit 9 times and then your dead. pretty much all of the bosses are very difficult and some require so much time and effort, all while listening to music like this
This is a little lesser known game, but Deep Rock Galactic has a great soundtrack. It's a sci-fi darksynth kinda tune, inspired by music from The Thing. The game is about exploring caves and fighting off alien bugs, and the soundtrack really captures the feel of the game super well.
Hollow Knight has wonderful music. To give you some ideas for games with good music you should look at im gonna put some like... NOW! - Outer Wilds (this one really hits my feelings pretty hard). - Everhood (has really nice bangers). - Ost from all Supergiant's games (Bastion, Transistor, Pyre and Hades). - Terraria (just because of it's unique feel). - Celeste (wonderful music to litsen to while you suffer all rings of hell crashing into you while playing the game) - Cuphead (nice jazz). - Dead Cells (a very underrated ost imo). - Paper Mario & the Origami King (very easy game but the music is surprisingly wonderful). - Eastward (really long and story centric game with little playability but the pixel art is outstanding and the music pretty nice). - A Hat in Time (not only the original ost but also the dlc ost with the deathwish remixes). - Ori (both games have stellar music). - Monster Hunter (I don't care wich game you litsen to, they mostly have nice music). - Both Psychonauts games (just do it). - Both Splatoon games including the Octo expansion (unique music that can be hit or miss but worth trying). - Pvz games (the first one has really good music, the second one falters a bit and the Garden Warfare games have nice remixes with decent original music). - Yo-Kai Watch 2 and 3 (the first game has decent music but the two sequels really improve on the musical department, specialy Yo-Kai Watch 3). - Persona 5 (can't recommend Persona 4 and 3 because I haven't litsened to their ost yet). Please, If you have your own request either reply to this comment If your desire me to know about it (for some weird reason) or just comment on the video itself.
Wonder if you could react to the Dark Souls ost, although it's a little bit more mellow of a soundtrack compared to the other one's you've reacted to, i think it has plenty of bangers personally

"I don't know the story" honestly, neither do we. mossbag pretty much does though

absolutely. underrated channel
I remember listening to their music
ohh yes.
He added original lyrics that FIT perfectly with the beat of where vocals would be
The guy who said “y’all don’t even know about pale court” really got me laughing
The fact that someone without knowledge of the story said during the "daughter of hollownest" track: it's like three different realms, let you just understand the talent of the composer about combining music and storytelling
For those who doesn't know: hornet (the character which the ost was composed for) is the daughter of a king of a reign and the queen of another one, plus she actually lived a part of her life in a third one
I recommend listening to the Dead Cells soundtracks there are lots of guitars and lutes
Fantastic soundtrack. I always enjoy seeing people react to these songs.
I think you'd enjoy listening to the Hyper Light Drifter soundtrack. A mix of piano, electronic, and ambient music that absolutely blew me away with the sound design. You should check it out!
Hello, i've been following you for a while and i absolutely love your content. I've also played both Deltarune/Undertale and Hollow Knight and their ost it's just a masterpiece. Also i think it would be interesting for you to react to others musicians or bands music
I think you should go for Ori and the Will of the Wisps soundtrack! It's probably my favorite of any game i've ever played, and if you liked Hollow Knight, you'd most likely love this one.
this was super fun to watch, thank you! 💖
the best part about hollow knight dlc is that it isnt dlc at all and is just updates, hope we get the same thing happen with silksong
Great reaction! You should try the Celeste OST too!
Great suggestion!
@@MusicTheoryforGamers YESSSSS. The Celeste OST is amazing!
Pale Court was "arranged by Steven Tanoto, and performed by the Accord Quartet and Péter Kiss"
Grimm Troupe and Nightmare King: I like to think of them as Bug Cult Circus music. Very apt description if I do say so myself.
So good that you finally reacted Gods & Nightmares OST! This is so good. Daughter of Hallownest and Furious Gods were my favorites!
Wonder if anyone's suggested listening to the Shadow Of The Colossus OST yet. What an incredible feast that is.
I second that!
I’m a tad bit sad zote’s theme wasn’t included. Not that I don’t understand why it wasn’t, but cmon, for the memes!
Me: But Truth, Beauty and Hatred was there... *realizes: OH, Oh, Oh no ... *Eternal Ordeal PTSD flashbacks
You know it, we want it.
I never listened to the OST separate before, and couldn't stop to smell the roses when facing Grimm. Never realized how FFVI the two tracks were
he’s such a cheerful guy
I love gravy in my ears
Nice video! I was waiting for Thai one ^^. A bit of a suggestion, this is a lesser known game, but I've personally played it and the music for it was amazing, especially for the boss fights! It's transformers devastation. Dunno if you have any interest in it, but it definitely could be fun to listen to the soundtrack.
Your name 😩😩
I seriously have to recommend that you react to the soundtrack from the game Hades. I know you would love it and it's full of incredible guitar tracks
Now you gotta listen to the silksong soundtrack when it comes out
Watching this is like when the teacher looks at your work and gives you a pay on the back
oh my god I never realized how hard daughter of hollownest went
I really like your videos, I found them recently out of no where and they’ve actually been really entirely Ngl. I do have a suggestion for an ost you could do and that A Hat In Time. It’s an indie game and it’s ost is incredibly so I was hoping you could do it at some point^^
the pale court seems to be the song of hollow knights story. i won't spoil it, but as you can hear from the music, it's very tragic. the story is never explicitly told, but some have pieced it together, so if you wanna see the story check out a youtuber called mossbag!
...Alright fine, you have my subscription
Welcome!
Pure Vessel is so good. My favourite fight in the game for sure.
as a very difficult battle game, hollow knights music serves it incredibly well. hearing them on their own is amazing, but just imagine hearing sisters of battle while your dodging three incredibly fast leader mantis warrior ladies where you only ever have just an inch to dodge things and one little mistake or one pixel off and you get hit. oh, and you didn't have a lot of hp. if you don't have charms that up your hp and if you find all the mask shards hidden in difficult places throughout the map, you can only get hit 9 times and then your dead. pretty much all of the bosses are very difficult and some require so much time and effort, all while listening to music like this
This is a little lesser known game, but Deep Rock Galactic has a great soundtrack. It's a sci-fi darksynth kinda tune, inspired by music from The Thing. The game is about exploring caves and fighting off alien bugs, and the soundtrack really captures the feel of the game super well.
Alright who put pantheon of gorb in the description?
(Bow bow bow to gorb, ascend ascend with gorb)
Truth, Beauty, and Hatred should’ve started off with the, “HRRRRRRRR, MARABEAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!”. Seems a bit incomplete with the Grey Prince involved.
Gods and glory triggers my fight or flight reactions
Could you make some HK guitar tutorials that use just the lowest 4 strings so I can play them on bass?
I still have PTSD from hearing Nightmare King XD
I like how Gorb’s slowly ascends
Hopefully one day we all can ascend with Gorb
Nightmare king is incomplete without my screams of anguish
Noone, literally everyone after mastering markoth: "I don't know who your talking about, nope never heard of him"
Another fun OST i think you should react to is the "A Hat In Time" Soundtrack. Seriously, it's AMAZING
The music in hollow knight is so so good man
I would love to see you react to the Ark OST as well!
I'd recommend reacting to the Wandersong soundtrack and some songs from the Kingdom Hearts series
Thanks for your ideas and recommendations! We will put it to a vote soon! Thank you for watching!
Ooooh absolutely second Wandersong! Such an underappreciated gem!
If you try hollow knight you're going to have a bad time while hearing nightmare king xd
Hollow Knight has wonderful music.
To give you some ideas for games with good music you should look at im gonna put some like... NOW!
- Outer Wilds (this one really hits my feelings pretty hard).
- Everhood (has really nice bangers).
- Ost from all Supergiant's games (Bastion, Transistor, Pyre and Hades).
- Terraria (just because of it's unique feel).
- Celeste (wonderful music to litsen to while you suffer all rings of hell crashing into you while playing the game)
- Cuphead (nice jazz).
- Dead Cells (a very underrated ost imo).
- Paper Mario & the Origami King (very easy game but the music is surprisingly wonderful).
- Eastward (really long and story centric game with little playability but the pixel art is outstanding and the music pretty nice).
- A Hat in Time (not only the original ost but also the dlc ost with the deathwish remixes).
- Ori (both games have stellar music).
- Monster Hunter (I don't care wich game you litsen to, they mostly have nice music).
- Both Psychonauts games (just do it).
- Both Splatoon games including the Octo expansion (unique music that can be hit or miss but worth trying).
- Pvz games (the first one has really good music, the second one falters a bit and the Garden Warfare games have nice remixes with decent original music).
- Yo-Kai Watch 2 and 3 (the first game has decent music but the two sequels really improve on the musical department, specialy Yo-Kai Watch 3).
- Persona 5 (can't recommend Persona 4 and 3 because I haven't litsened to their ost yet).
Please, If you have your own request either reply to this comment If your desire me to know about it (for some weird reason) or just comment on the video itself.
sonic too. if you're unfamiliar with sonic music in general I strongly recommend it
Wow! Thank you for this list! We will put these up for voting!
Ori is set for a future vote! Thank you for watching!
Cuphead is a great suggestion!
these are some 10/10 suggestions
I think I speak for everyone when I say we would love for you to listen to the Hades OST
Wonder if you could react to the Dark Souls ost, although it's a little bit more mellow of a soundtrack compared to the other one's you've reacted to, i think it has plenty of bangers personally
Luke we will put it up for a vote soon! Thank you for watching!
