Fun fact: the Hornet track is composed entirely of stringed instruments. The reason is insane is because its the theme of the boss/important character named Hornet, who is part spider and fights with an oversized needle and magic thread.

I'm sure you probably noticed, but like 99% of the instruments were VST's, which is really impressive because I never noticed until after I finished the game. However, in the upcoming sequel for Hollow Knight, Christopher will most likely use a lot more real instruments. I recommend listening to one of the demo tracks called "lace". It's a full on string quartet composition, and really bodes well for the sequel's soundtrack.

@mephilestenesse5101 2 года назад

Your English is actually pretty nice! I can tell what you're saying, But the Hollow Knight is considered to have no gender, therefore, they/them pronouns instead of the use of he/him and he/him is considered masculine. Also, the use of have should be replaced with has and writted should be wrote, I don't remember why have and has are like that in English but I do understand how long it takes to learn English along with how difficult it tends to be. Honestly, I don't tend to use all of the English rules due to me being raised with the language and don't feel I need to try to get my point across to other native English speakers. So far your English is actually really nice, hope you have a nice day dude!

I like that you noticed the polyrhythm taking place in Hornet. In game its a battle and also introduction to a major character, and the battle feels more akin to a dance as two different styles and blades clash. The knight with their raw determination, power and skill clashing with Hornet's sheer speed, precision, and delicate yet sharp dance to meet in a serene back and forth, call and response.

@thefluffyaj4119 2 года назад

the environmental/location themes are so underated. sure, greenpath ain't no bop like mantis lords, but it fits the area so dam well. looking at the gorgeous, hand drawn backgrounds and characters while listening to this ost is a damn experience listening to the playful little tune in greenpath as a little bush creature comes to life, listening to the general song are looking at the completly wild and untamed vegetation of greenpath, all the greenery and life all around you. and this is just one track, I could say the same about all the other location osts. it's just a fuckin *experience*, stopping to really take in the scenery and the music of each beautifully unique area. and the overall feel of the entire ost really reminds you of the kind of world your in, a melancholy shell of what used to be a beautiful kingdom, but you can still find life in every corner if you look hard enough, these small yet fierce creatures surviving in this post-apocalyptic world

@dtmuffinman Год назад

There is so much storytelling in the music of hollow knight-storytelling moments that you wouldn’t have understood unless you listen to the use of themes in the the different soundtrack. The way the Pale King’s theme is woven throughout the whole game is a testament to his influence on the world of the game and how he brought intelligence and created Hollownest, everything can be linked and traced back to him.

The Sealed vessel and the Radiance are one of my favorite battle themes on the game. In the Sealed vessel when the sad part comes, you can just feel the sorrow and despiration in it. Defenetly doesnt help, that in the game the boss starts stapping itself, and it becomes even more sadder when you learn the story. The Radiance song is the perfect Theme for the boss, the moment you hear it, you realise that youre fighting something much greater than a normal enemy, youre fighting the Radiance, the god of light! Who is the source of all the misery and madness in the game, all those hours of gameplay has come to this moment, and it is epic af.

@jubileechambers2604 Год назад

Playing Hollow Knight especially during those moments I got frustrated with a fight the music would keep me pushing forward would keep me going back over and over again. I have a lot of tracks that I love on this OST in the game itself one of my favorites was the Mantis Lords. The combat itself mixed with the music is a moment that is going to stick with me for a very long time.

@ldeeevs1747 2 года назад

The music in the game itself is a lot more interesting. Each level theme (Crossroads, Greenpath, City of Tears, etc.) are layered through the game (except White Palace, Kingdoms Edge, Resting Grounds, and Royal Waterways [which was not present]), divided into three. I call these, "ambient", "main", and "action". "Ambient" is the level theme, but simpler, quieter, and with less parts. It is present in parts that are quiet, uninteresting, or if the game wants you to take in a view. "Main" is most of what you heard. All parts are present, and plays when in more dangerous parts, or parts with more action. Parts are only another term for "room". "Action" is simply the track, but with added instruments to make it feel intense. This plays when you meet a tough enemy or if you are forced to fight waves of tough enemies. You missed the "Colosseum of Fools" soundtrack, but all it is is the same part, but it gets faster over time. It does fit with the colosseum, though. You didn't miss much with it. Yeah I'm a nerd. Yeah I love the music. Yeah I love the game. So what?

@delj3084 2 года назад

This is the sort of video I've been looking for! Most people only react to Hornet or Mantis Lords. Don't get me wrong, those are both amazing tracks, but there's other amazing things to find in this OST. Your reactions to the guitars coming in for Crystal Peak's high energy mix, the bombastic majesty of Radiance, and the gentle beauty of White Palace, among all the others. I'm curious if you have some stand out favorites? Wonderful video! I'm off to watch your other OST reactions!

@agentmiso6446 2 года назад

This! I'm so glad he covered the whole ost since they usually like you said react to hornet and mantis lords, there was one who reacted to sealed vessel and grimm but even so there's so many other tracks, also love that he reacted to the gods and nightmares dlc ost

@l0sts0ul72 2 года назад

I'm so glad you reacted to this soundtrack! Hollow Knight is my favourite game, and the soundtrack is one of the main reasons why. The leitmotifs are plentiful and each song tells the player something about the area/character - for example, Mantis Lords: The fight is fast-paced and somewhat chaotic, and the song mirrors that. Christopher Larkin really did perfectly on the soundtrack.

@TheVentrexian 2 года назад

Finished Hollow Knight and it's dlcs recently and I haven't stopped thinking about it because the music is on another level. I know nothing about music technically so hearing your reactions and breakdowns is great for learning. I have synesthesia and have long wondered why I can "feel music" lol when the story and music meet is especially striking to me.

@jacobwilkinson5479 2 года назад

I love this soundtrack, definitely one of my favourites. Once you play the game as well though, I love how the character and area motifs appear in thematically relevant tracks based on how the story of the game is connected as well. For just one example, the kings palace and greenpath motifs both appear together in the queens garden track which is for an area of the map that the queen took from greenpath for the kingdom, so the two tracks for each element play together in the piece thematically linking the two. There are a tonne more connections in the different pieces though.
