Asgore [8-Bit; VRC6] - Undertale 

I've always thought that Asgore destroys the Mercy button because he believed he didn't deserve mercy.

You: eats pie* Asgore: :(

I like to think he destroyed the Mercy button, because his name would be yellow from the very start.

Fun fact: Toby Fox made Bergentrückung/ASGORE play in the key exactly between C# minor and D minor.

About 6 or so years ago, this guy, branflakes left a comment on a Fearofdark video basically saying "Damn I wish I was this talented" And now, today...

Everyone else has got something thoughtful or funny to say and I'm just sitting here like "Hehe, music notes wiggly."

I guess you could say he destroyed the “save in playlist” option

The most powerful dad in gaming.

I always preferred Asgore's theme to other monsters' like Sans and Undyne because of the more melancholy and emotional tone. Other themes, especially genocide route themes, embody determination, and a will to fight or confidence and epicness, while Asgore's theme better portrays sadness and guilt while still maintaining the determined sound that all boss themes have in Undertale

As much as I like Megalovania and all the other songs from Undertale, I've always thought ASGORE was the best one.

And now, years after release, there's a new, *best* 8-bit remix of Asgore's theme.

I hate that Undertale got such a bad reputation by it's fans. It's such a good game and this song still gives me goosebumps to this day! This whole fight really captures everything the pacifist route is about.

“Human, it was nice meeting you,” “Goodbye.”

Ralsei: Kris, it hasn’t even been 5 minutes and you’ve already resorted to eating moss! Oh wait, wrong game...

love how clean you've managed to get your sound design

Song: *First note* Me: FINGERS-

King Fluffybuns is an absolute unit and I love him.

Asgore didnt want to hurt anybody. He never wanted to have to kill another human being. Asgore has a heart, Asgore loves. Asgore wanted Toriel back, Asgore wanted his son back. Asgore wanted his people to believe in him once again. Asgore didnt want to kill anybody so he said he would kill 7 humans who dropped down and use their souls to escape the underground, hoping that NO human would ever fall down. But it was prophecy that they would. So they did. Asgore DEEPLY did not want to kill you. But he knew he had to. Toriel on the other hand wanted Asgore to take one human soul and leave the underground by himself and decimate the humans and then break the barrier for the monsters. Asgore cant help the want to ask you if you would like tea. Because it's in his nature to love. Asgore destroys the mercy button because he believes he doesnt deserve mercy after what he has done. He wants there to be a final winner. He wants it all to be over. He just wants to see his wife... he just wants to see his son. So you can kill him, and take his soul, saving yourself. Or he can kill you, take your soul, and save everyone. Or maybe... Just maybe... There might be another way ;)

The whole time I was expecting Asgore himself to drop down next.

0:00 - nice cover 0:27 onwards - *_A S C E N S I O N_*

Most people: Megalovania Me, an intellectual: ASGORE

Pacifist: “die” Neutral: “die” Genocide: “yOu wANt SoME tEa?” Edit: ok why is this so popular-

Asgore+Bergentrückung is one of my absolute favorite songs from Undertale (and maybe one of the best songs I've ever heard in a videogame, in my opinion, of course), and your cover makes perfect justice to the original. Great job!

The parts when the arps kick in are amazing (and so is the rest of the cover, of course!)

I can't hear this song without thinking of Kanye West and that upsets me, really good cover though!

It’s crazy how the mercy button is on the right side of the screen and Asgore destroys it at the beginning of the fight but none of the keys on the far right side of the piano are touched throughout the whole song.

I think my favourite thing about your remixes is that you give the piece your original sound, but keep all the notes from the original intact. Some remixes change the notes for whatever reason and 8/10 times it just _doesn't_ work. You don't mess with that, you don't have to. Your 8-Bit music renditions are perfect!

i dont have anything to say that hasnt been said, the different waves you use, the occasional samples, the percussion, it's all great

It seems your music is coming to an end You're filled with CHIPTUNE

I really appreciate all the flairs you added in that are different from the original. Keep up the good work my dude!

Song: *exists for 0.67 seconds Me: *Like Seriously though your 8-bit covers are so fricking good oh heck

The song that’s been in my head for nearly a week now after completing Undertale for the first time. Great remix man!

RU-vid: recommends this My brain: you’ve watched it like seven times Me: juuuust one more time

omg your reinterpretation of 1:41 is amazing (*as well as the whole thing)

You are incapable of disappointing. Thanks for another awesome cover!

I already knew you were the best chiptune artist, but thanks for reaffirming that

This sounds so similar to the original. And I love it.

It warms my heart every time I see a new Undertale remix, I'm always glad to see that I'm not alone in not getting tired of this game and it's music.

Now I know where his 1st trident goes when he destroys the MERCY button.

You: spares asgore* Asgore: we can have a family Flowey: nope, kills asgore* You: :’|

The VRC6 chip reaaaaally benefits this song!. Amazing job! :0

*listens to your “Life will Change” cover* They seem pretty coo- HOLY CRAP UNDERTALE?!

hey bran wasnt this already chiptune ????

Great job, you honestly never ceases to amaze me with your covers!

I always loved how at 0:50 the music syncs with his trident attack

You’ve managed what many remixes of this song have kinda failed to do by capturing the feeling of the song and they way the music itself seems like it’s lost hope yet it still goes on

*The Memories Start to Rush Back

i think i like 0:27 more than the drop in the original song, this is incredible

HUGE shout out to the fact that the intro has extra vibrato instead of just being 2a03, that's such a small change but it's really nice

Asgore: Time to die. Random Dog in the corner: *Pulls out portable piano*

I can always count on you to improve my favorite songs! INCREDIBLE JOB!

How have i not heard of this channel until today,i love this!

Easily my favorite remix, branflakes back at it again...

This is probably my favorite channel right now, i need to learn how to use famitracker

your 8 bit covers give me life this is amazing

This rendition is absolutely amazing! Great work! :D🎵

Everyone else in the comments: "Fingers in his-" Me, an intellectual: "PASTA POWER! We're the Mario Brothers, and plumbing's our game..."

Nice job with those choir samples!

i love all the little additions you made to the song

These notes fall like raindrops. Nice!

A Man that lost everything a Man that lost his family a Man that has killed Children a Man...that thinks he doesn't deserve mercy Also did anyone realized that he throwed his big fork at the mercy button then got one again??

what do you call asgore after he starts a food van? the BURGER-TRUCK-KING

The best 8 bit cover I've heard of ASGORE, keep it up dude

Asgore destroyed the mercy button cuz his name would already be yellow

Finally, the first good asgore remix

1:08 That beat drop.... God damn. You sir are the finest at 8-bit remixes.

this is personally my most favorite song in UNDERTALE. It makes me feel like I am fighting a final boss while this song's melody tells me that he is the husband of Toriel, who was so kind to me in the RUINS. I really like the 8-bit cover, good job!

awesome arrangement bran, this was a joy to listen to

Even before the funny sans meme this theme was hard slept on

me: *sees branflakes in my notifs* me: :DD seriously so damn good ahhhh thank you for existing hsusvgsvs

Nicely done rendering the feel of the orchestral violin swells in Famitrackerland!

This is an amazing cover, well done!

silence, internet *branflakes approaches*

Damn, this sound fantastic! Have you thought about doing any 8-bit arrangements of music from Fire Emblem Three Houses? I think you'd absolutely kill it.

Super, super good. You deserve more attention for your work 👌

再現度高いしピコピコ感が癖になる...！

This is brilliant

This makes me want to cry

One of my favorite tracks ever, I loved your version! I liked the transition on 1:40 a lot, it hits really hard

best music from undertale dont @ me

When you 8-Bit a 8-Bit game, you know that you have ascended.

You wont believe its not PCM samples. It get so close to original its unreal.

Sounds good like always Good job man !!

I can't listen this theme without crying, I think is one of the best pieces of music in videogames history, like I was born in the early 90s and grew up with so many games with epic music and this theme has so many colors to it, the way the drums and hits kick-in and it contrast calm parts with battle music is so beautiful to hear, and when all of the quote on quote "instruments" and parts jump in I can help but cry, Imagine that this theme alone makes me cry, this music combined with the fact that I didn't wanna fight Asgore during that fight in the game, I was crying like a baby, it was a messy moment. And this rendition/arrangement/cover is AMAZING it really brings all the emotions 😍😭😍😭😍💕

this is the first video I've ever seen with a 100% like-dislike ratio gg branflakes

neat, you've now covered both kings one of chaos and one of the mountain

The beauty of it is, Toby's music sounds good no matter what you do to it.

aw man this is deep, even in 8 bit. branflakes, you did a phenomenal job with this

you are filled with fingers

gonna download this to try putting it in Crypt of the NecroDancer, will add an edit with how it went edit: lol, forgot to add the edit. It was pretty fun but it felt out of place with the original game's music. Maybe try putting a bunch more of bran's songs in?

Other covers of Asgore's theme are often butchered I think, but this one really magnified the original, sometimes making the music evolve more naturally. Brilliant adaptation!

*You ate the Butterscotch Pie *Asgores Attack and Defense goes down! This small little detail on keeping a healing item you get from the beginning of the game, is such a clever one.

WOOO! Nice!

*HOW DOES THIS SOUND LIKE THE IN-GAME VERSION???

I used to play with Famitracker making covers of music I liked... Your work just blows everything I did out of the water. I'd love to learn your techniques.

SPOTIFY NEEDS THIS

It’s good to see Undertale still get covers of it’s songs... Any other undertale songs you have in mind?

Me: How the hell do you even make an 8-bit cover of a song that's already in chiptune?! 0:18 *exists*

Cool vizualiser and arrangement !

Wow, impressing Undertale content in 2018 I‘m so glad parts of the community are still alive and well
