Music Producer Reacts to LUDWIG, THE HOLY BLADE 

“It’s like he remembers who he is.” NICE

The Bloodborne cello is simultaneously my favorite instrument and the thing I'm most afraid of meeting in a dark alley.

Lady Maria's theme is absolutely phenomenal, both in musically and thematically.

I like how the second stage feels like a dance or a waltz, trading and dodging blows like sophisticated gentlemen having a proper duel.

Probably one of the best OSTs in any game, ever. Especially because it's of Ludwig. In Bloodborne Lore, Ludwig was one of THE guys. Gehrman was the first proper hunter, ever, who basically invented what hunters are, but Ludwig was THE guy that popularized it as the first official Church Hunter. It's also implied that he and his original order of hunters killed a *LOT* of people, and he did it all believing that his cause was the most noble in the world. That and they also burned half a city to the ground and then blamed and exiled an allied faction that helped them do it. His own madness caused by his magic sword also most likely had a large part to play in mankind's obsession with the greater powers that ended up driving the entire city into ruin. The choir is very mean for a very good reason, while the music also completely respects Ludwigs raw determination and power and his complete accomplishment, even if the ends were not the desired effect of his actions.

The holy blade theme is my “going even further beyond” gym song

You gave a lot of love to the instrumental layers 🎉but don’t forget the choir out there tearing their vocal chords. Let’s hear a lil love for the choir.

When the soundtrack from Bloodborne was competing against others in either 2015 or 2016 for best soundtrack in games it lost to Mario. Yes, life is stupid.

In the words of Maxor "Holy Shit I'm Alive Right Now"

When he becomes the Holy Blade you can feel the nobility return to him for but a moment

Gehrman, the fist hunter ost! It`s in my case the best from them !!

I've literally been on your channel for the past 2 hours lmao! It's just that positive feeling of seeing someone genuinely react to music that, I believe, is criminally underrated in the modern music industry.

This song gives me chills every time i listen to it. Its an amazing song outside of the game but the context of Ludwig makes it so much more powerful.

The nightmare waltz.... so dope. My guiding moonlight. The strings are bonkers but the brass is heavenly.

This music brings tears to my eye. You can feel his plight

"you were by my side...all along."

Bloodborne maybe has the greatest game soundtrack ever, def recommend "Amygdala" and "The First Hunter"(Gherman's Theme)

Ludwig the accursed and Holy Blade are the perfect accompaniment for a character ruined and destroyed by his own hubris, struggling to keep his humanity and grasping at what he can before finding his last shreds of dignity.

I swear i will watch every fromsoft react vid that u make , feel Free to Do them all 😅

My all time favorite 😤 the whole soundtrack is just amazing

Between this, Halo, and ultra kill, you're have been reviewing all of my favorite games/OSTs. You're one of my new favorites. Thank you for recognizing the genuine talent it takes to create these soundtracks.

It’s always so much fun watching people react to my theme, more so when they understand the effect the music is supposed to have.

I never listen to the game sounds (I always either listen to an audiobook or something else while gaming) and I clicked on this video wondering if I've ever heard this boss music and I never have! It's so cool that ppl can feel and hear the epicness even without the visuals and the game it self! This is no doubt unforgettable boss and the music becomes it

Slave Knight Gael Ost please! It's the best soulsborne piece ever written in my humble opinion.

Ah yes, this sweet ensemble that played 70 times in a row as Ludwig clobbered my face in repeatedly. He was my hardest time in the game. Harder than Kos imo.

Highly recommend Hollow Knight OST, super beautiful and one of my favorite videogame OSTs.

This boss theme is luscious, the second movement/ section is goddamn iconic.

This fight is so wonderfully represented by the dichotomy in the composition. Ludwig. The Accursed vs Ludwig, The Holy Blade

Well its nice to be able to actually hear the song instead of ludwigs excessive screeching lol

Dope....the cello line sounds like fun to play! Waiting for anything from DS3 Kreygasm

So crazy to me how many people can just listen and get the twisted lore quite right. Truly masterpieces of games in all aspects.

One of my favorite things about this song is that it's a waltz, so it feels like the boss, Ludwig, and the main character, The Hunter, are dancing with each other, especially with how rhythmic combat in Bloodborne is, with side stepping instead of dodge-rolling.

Alot of amazing suggestions here already so i will go down a different path: soulsborne is very good with its music to tell a story or give a setting and all designed to make you feel which i love. Be it the epic or tragic boss themes mentions that are bangers to listen to. Or the quiet setting mysic of areas. Be it creepy like hail the nightmare or sweetbbut sense of lonely haven like majula from ds2. Must say i enjoyed finding your channel by random searching for something else^^ your raw analysis seems like a very intuitive spirit which i can relate to which is always a welcoming one to see. Looking forward to more nier ones and others. Also one i found recently i love listening to: Lily from Ender Lillies (yeah my mind is terrible ending a text x) )

I'd love to hear your take on "Gwyn, Lord of Cinder" theme from Dark Souls 1 amazing observations on this sound track!

The fact we get such a powerful dark waltz makes me happy. This is the kind of stuff that deserves to be programmed.

this theme is insane

I've never played bloodborn, but that one is my favorite ost of fromsoftware games

This is such a fun series! Your destiny reactions and breakdown was really great. Have you done any of the Halo game music breakdowns? That right there is some next level music.

My personal favourite from this OST is Moon Presence.

Bloodborne is a waltz. Dance Away…

Motoi Sakuraba honestly my favorite game composer🤘🏼

check out “The Hunter” Father Gascoigne’s theme !

I never got to play most of these games but I love the music.

Gotta do Bury The Light from DMC5. Greatest gaming ost there is imo

Best game ever made right here. The music is second to none.

The music is a masterpiece

best OST of all time!

what headset is that?

who knew we would get this music , from a japanese studio

Nier: Automata if you haven't played/heard it. "A Beautiful Song" and "Dark Colossus (Kaiju)" are personal favorites

I must recommend listening to Laurence the first vicar. It is a great theme.

Bloodborne is goated

For me the best soundtrack ❤❤❤❤❤

Ludwig's and Gael's are the best ost in the series. Didn't mind losing with a soundtrack like that

check out Nioh 2's Interim theme or Nightmare Bringer theme

my personal fav from this game is Ebrietas Daughter of the Cosmos

Cello reminds me of the HoMM 3 necropolis theme.

Please listen to Lady Maria ost theme. imo it’s the best one from bloodborne

Late to the party, but I'll always say it again. The second phase music is like the Harry Potter theme on crack.

You should do blood starved beast it’s my fav

Spacelion - The Seatbelts - Cowboy Bebop

Ur twitch name is so underrated

From a mindless abomination to a beast-man regaining a fraction of his humanity long enough so he can die as a man.

Yep. Hes no longer rhe beast he transformed into. Hes the hunter u heard and read about. What little humanity is left in him comes out as rhe warrior and hunter he was

Little did she know... It's a waltz....

Fuck yes

Compossr: "Accent dammit, more Accent" String players crying in sawn off violin neck: "we can't go any harder." Composer: ">>>>>>>>>>" String players sobbing intensifies.

Ludwig was essentially the Healing Church's executioner. A self-righteous bloodthirsty crusader if you will. Once respected by all until the scourge kept spreading and they all saw him for the beast he truly was. He became so obsessed with the hunt it turned everyone against him, so his mind and body twisted to suit the dissonance.

Nice rect

Look for cover to this song by Geoffplaysguitar. It is in doom eternal style and it transforms it greatly.

Slave Knight Gael then from Dark souls 3 and Apotheosis from Journey 😊

Best game oat btw

Gotta do the first hunter

I like the cleric beast theme because I'm basic.

please do Dark soul 3 main theme next time

I recommend you listen to Nier Automata soundtracks. They are top tier too

Pelear con esta música xD ufffffff

Apotheosis - Journey

Would consider studying music just for her tbh

Its a cardinal sin that Bloodborne didn't win Best Original Score.

Please, silence and listen!!!!!!

she's just name the instruments as they play

Laurence the First Vicar is better than this one but this is stil great.

Living failures next?

I recommend you listen to to Bloodborne's trailer soundtrack called "Omen" 🤌
