For those of you wanting see a Soundtrack Dive on "The Delicious Last Course" while I can't give a specific date, I CAN confirm that it will be the next Soundtrack Dive video!! (Not the next video I post) pls don't stab me
Since you are planning on doing all the songs, I just wanted to let you know that Baking The Wondertart actually has 2 slightly different versions. Mainly because the different version plays when in expert mode where it drags some of the parts on for longer to account for the longer time you spend fighting due to the boss having more health than usual. But I can’t find a video about the “extended” version and all the evidence I got is the fight in game. Thought that was neat and wanted to share as it could maybe be an honorable mention in the DLC video that’s coming. Anyway, have a beautiful rest of ya day, whoever has the patience to read this. Extra: the difference is mainly found in the end of the last part of the expert song, as well as the first phases ending. But it is a bit weird how it seems like those are the only 2 parts that were changed for expert mode.
Loved the video but now you are in the fnf rabbit hole of banger masterpieces and shocking controversy which may or may not include some people in your video, just saying, but if you want to hear a mod song that hits more powerful in context even though it’s a cover, forgotten remanent, a mod that represents the horrific and tragic story more messy than the very first creepy pasta, and a revie interview would really be a nice cherry on top of this incident that happened because you stepped at the tip of the fnf iceberg my dude. And sorry if this is sudden and to long or rude but I hope you possibly see this and can’t wait for the next video.
@@YourboiMikeyJay hi micheal. I just saw your video about my favourite mid indie cross and I just wanted to say I loved how you loved the soundtrack. Also here's some small fun fact : Nightmare run contains leimotiff of 2 well know classic Fnf mods, one being Hellclown from Vs Tricky (Rozebud composed the main week song) and Zaviodia from Mid fight Masses.
I'm only about half way through, but if you enjoyed Saruky's music, her mod, Hotline 024, is full of refrences and banger music. Give it a try some time!
Just got done with all 2 hours - yet another absolutely awesome soundtrack dive into one of the coolest collaborations this specific game has ever brought to light! I absolutely loved the earnest energy and passion you brought throughout the entire vid, it's honestly inspirational and just really nice to see. All of the interviews were an absolute delight as well - as someone that's been in this "fandom" from just before it really blew up, I was internally geeking out listening to all these chill people talk about their methods of music making and involvement in the mod. And the editing; I can't imagine how many hours you must spend putting all of these smooth transitions, silly green screen gags, and quality graphics together! Again, inspirational stuff, and as the comments section has pointed out, criminally underrated. I never expected FNF/Mods to be up for discussion in this series, but I'd gladly welcome more of it! For as infamous as the community has gotten, there's still a ton of heart and passion going into so many mods at once, and to just ignore that would be a shame in my opinion. Some unstructured random little comments: - Love the Technicolor Tussle appreciation, absolute banger - The new mic used in the Credits discussion sounded really good! Like both mics equally, but I believe its sound quality is maybe a touch better than what you've been using. - That Bad to the Bone remake preview was great! Unexpected but very welcome. - I hope that the term Flingy Mics hasn't become utter mush after saying it so many times Keep up the quality content, my fellow lover of all things video game music! I don't mind the long waits between all of these soundtrack dives when it results in consistently quality content like this. Looking forward to the next one!
I’ve seen so many videos on indie cross but nobody really focused on the music just like “Oh look how cool this is/looks” or “Oh my god the mechanics are so difficult waaaaa” but this is just a masterpiece of a video, getting the chance to interview some of the greatest musicians in the FNF community is a dream of mine and now I can live vicariously through you Songs like Bonedoggle, Technicolor Tussle, and Terrible Sin bring me LIFE and I’m glad you gave every song a time to shine Also if I could make a suggestion for a mod to cover next in Soundtrack Dive, I’d say Hotline 024, it’s made by Saruky and a small group of others but it has some of the best music I’ve heard from the game, and some songs are arguably even better then indie cross (just so you know now, Satellite Picnic and Sugarcrush. That’s all I’m gonna say) Anyways keep up the fantastic work my man! Cannot wait for the next episode!
The Last Reel on Easy mode was actually the version that was played back when it was just the demo. I’m surprised they still had a use for it after the one used for the Hard difficulty was made!
For Last Reel, I feel like the 10-second pauses are there not only to give you a breather, not only to allow you to clear out the enemies, but mainly to build tension. Compare the silence to Imminent Demise's opening, which comes across as more comedic, and you'll notice the silence in Last Reel is much more unsettling, and you can't really fully relax the first time through because you can't trust the game that you're actually getting a breather, and doing it twice really drives home that distrust. Perfect, in fact, for facing an ink monster who knows nothing but "kill this thing in front of me". And that second break is perhaps the most genius move the song made, because like I said, it really drives home the distrust, because it's hard to believe the game would give you a break in the middle of the same song twice in a row, especially for such a final-sounding song. But that's not all... Because Bendy does something drastic. He fills the air with ink, placing you at the biggest disadvantage you could possibly have, taking your health down even further than what is achievable in game, but he also removes every other obstacle in your path. He's basically telling you... Your enemy is *HIM.* This entire song has been rigged against you, but Bendy doesn't want that. He wants to make you suffer himself. And so, the real battle begins with a brand new countdown, and a new mechanic thrown in in the form of the insta-kill notes. I don't think this would have as much of an impact without those pauses. It adds to the tension, especially the first one with its instrumentals mimicking Bendy's scream at the beginning, and the second one releases some of that tension, only to come in with that death theme when Bendy changes the rules. Overall, I think it might be the best song in the mod, or at least up there in the top 3.
Also it mimics the tension in both of the games like the tension between his appearances because you are always on edge because you never know when he will show up and eat you
Of all osts I was expecting you to talk about... I wasn't expecting this one! I played fnf all the time last year but fell off around March. I missed out on Indie Cross! Great video once again, looking forward to the next one!
This is literally the most entertaining, high-quality video I've watched all week, and the whole 2 hours literally melted my stress away. Was laughing my ass off and making noises of pure admiration along with you at the same time. Keep up the stellar work my dude! This channel deserves ALL the views, likes, subs, and more! Thank you for making such awesome videos!!
Burning in Hell actually has some Hopes and Dreams in BF's vocals or the instrumental. It's located right after the dodging gaster blasters bit (in the corridor, not the battle screen) around a minute and 20 secs into the standalone song. Aside from that, I really want to thank you, I discovered indie cross and fnf as a whole from you :D Awesome review!
57:29: Upon further inspection, the Game Over Music for Despair seems to be a lower pitched version of Sketches, the music heard on Bendy and the Ink Machine's Title Screen. 58:38: Actually, in the Instrumental version of Imminent Demise, there is no piano heard during the cutout part. But in the Vocals-only, the piano is present. This means that the piano IS the cutout singing. 1:17:26: Reference to HELLCLOWN from the VS Tricky Mod. 1:18:38: Reference to Zavodila from Mid-Fight Masses. Ink Bendy (also referred to as The Ink Demon or simply just Bendy) is the main antagonist of all three Bendy and the Ink Machine games. He was a failed experiment by Joey Drew Studios to bring the popular cartoon character Bendy to life. He then took revenge on his creators for his imprisonment. The song Terrible Sin is a reference to a crazed Bendy Cutout that holds a sign that reads "WANDERING IS A TERRIBLE SIN". The song Last Reel is a reference to the fifth and final Chapter of Bendy and the Ink Machine titled "The Last Reel". The song Nightmare Run is a reference to the spin-off endless runner mobile game "Bendy In Nightmare Run". The opponent of the song Ritual is Sammy Lawrence. He was the music director of Joey Drew Studios before being turned into an ink monster. He worships Ink Bendy and performs rituals to sacrifice people in order to finally escape the Studio. He made his first appearance in Chapter 2 before returning in Chapter 5. Cuphead and Mugman's Voices are based on how they speak in The Cuphead Show on Netflix. Their voices are provided by DAGames. Brothers In Arms, a Cuphead Song created by DAGames, was partially the inspiration behind this Mod's creation. The Easy Difficulty version of Last Reel is the version of the Song from the original Demo of Indie Cross. During Last Reel, Stickman from Stickman VS can be seen running past in the background. This is a reference to Stickman VS Bendy and the Ink Machine. During Last Reel, Boyfriend is attacked by Pipers (right) and Strikers (left). These two (alongside Fishers) make up a group known as The Butcher Gang. The Butcher Gang is a set of recurring enemies in Bendy and the Ink Machine. During the cutscene following Nightmare Run, The Projectionist can be seen. The Projectionist is the Ink Monster form of Norman Polk, the one who operated Projectors. He makes his first appearance in Chapter 3 and reappears in Chapter 4, only to be decapitated by Ink Bendy. During the cutscene following Nightmare Run, Boyfriend hides inside a Little Miracle Station. These Little Miracle Stations are the player's only true defense against Ink Bendy in Bendy and the Ink Machine since every other weapon does absolutely nothing to him. The Bendy Cutouts are used to create mini-jumpscares in Bendy and the Ink Machine. Ink Bendy despises them being destroyed, which is why the Cutout being destroyed summons him to Boyfriend's location. Nightmare Bendy has a noticeable swirl pattern on his hands. This references Audrey, the main protagonist of Bendy and the Dark Revival, the sequel to Bendy and the Ink Machine. Before Indie Cross, Ink Bendy did not have an actual voice. Instead, he only made roaring, screeching, and growling noises. But in Bendy and the Dark Revival, he was given a redesign and a full-on voice. But Bendy and the Dark Revival came out AFTER Indie Cross. The Devil's death quote when losing in Satanic Funkin' is ripped straight from his Phase 2 Death Quote in the original Cuphead. The Devil's Danger Icon references his second phase. The Devil's left pose is a reference to a pose he makes in "The Devil's Song" from The Cuphead Show. At the start of Satanic Funkin', The Devil performs an animation with his eye that depicts Boyfriend's head being cut in half. This is a reference to the animation he does at the beginning of his Boss Fight in the original Cuphead. In the background of Devil's Gambit can be seen The Devil's dead body, referencing his Phase 2 transition in the original Cuphead. The song Bad To The Bone is a reference to an animation created by J-Bug. The background of Freaky Machine is a reference to DAGames's second Bendy song: Gospel of Dismay. Gospel of Dismay is also referenced in Cartoon Bendy's transformation. At the end of the Credits, a loud screaming sound plays. This sound directly comes from Hollow Knight's Final Boss Fight. During the opening cutscene, Boyfriend briefly travels to Shovel Knight, Hollow Knight, Untitled Goose Game, and Five Nights At Freddy's. Cuphead uses a multitude of weapons in his Week: Peashooter + Mega Blast, Chaser, and Roundabout. During the cutscene after Knockout, he uses the Charge Shot and Energy Beam Super Art. The background of Cuphead's Week is very heavily based on Floral Fury.
Moro really brought the best of the best in the FnF community and made not just an FnF mod, but a love letter to the most popular indie games out there. It may not be my favorite FnF mod,(one called Troubleshootin' beats it),it's still incredible. Oh, also you were right about the Normal Last Reel being an old version.
Welcome to the fnf community Michael, I hope you’re ready for controversy and pain. But it’s ok we can watch the Blue haired funny man rap with beeps and boops.
There is One Soundtrack that, despite it not being in the Mod, was made by Mike Geno called: "Crossed Out" ft. Cuphead, Sans & Bendy in this One Song. I'd say give it a listen😁
im not a big commenter tbh, but i will be honest i had no idea who u were, and im so fkn glad that youtube recommended me to u. your energy, effort, and just entire vibe is phenomenal. u are for sure going places man! as in like there is NO WAY you wont be a top dog soon. hella underrated atm. but amazing video, amazing effort. i cant wait to lost lots of my time catching up on videos, and anything u release in the future!
Bro keep up what your doing man this is great! The fact that you managed to interview a lot of the composers and still have time to finish this vid is awesome 😎
Being into FNF for a long time it really makes you take for granted these kinds of mods lol. Its interesting to see someone absolutely lose their mind seeing it for the first time
1:15:44 yes this one was a beta song for last reel and maybe they used it because yes the song was slower so i think they wanted to use the song for something so they used it for easy mode 1:19:09 no this was not a pause screen music this was actually the ambience for the game because there was no songs in main game well if you at-least turn on those music radios. 1:17:25 if you never played some of the mods in fnf then that part is a reference in the tricky mod because i don’t know. Two people worked on tricky which was MØRO and rozebud i think? 1:29:47 well i mean he was not a important character he just showed up twice and died twice first by bendy in the second chapter and another by a boris clone in the final chapter which was chapter 5
its a breath of fresh air to see a video from someone outside the fnf community not just shit on the game, loved seeing your opinions on these songs! some i agree with, some i disagree, hell i actually gave technicolor tussle a second chance after thinking it was just alright, i definitely see why you like it so much now! me personally i think either devil's gambit or burning in hell are the best songs. overall though, this kind of positivity was absolutely NEEDED for the fnf community! even amongst the fanbase indie cross has sort of a mixed reception, which is a shame since its my favorite mod rn. loved the interviews too, lots of fun vibes going around there (and yeah bendy's pause "theme" is just the main ambient track from bendy and the ink machine) this was a fantastic watch, i'm definitely gonna subscribe to see your other stuff (also welcome to the fnf community! if you haven't already, i recommend checking out corruption, zardy, impostor, and super mario bros funk mix. they got some pretty awesome songs, so they're worth a listen!)
I love it when people outside of the community aren't just talking about the game so they can post a video with old welcome and say we call it a banger.
This was funking amazing! This entire thing was just incredible. The interviews were great, the review is fun to listen to (lol funni dance go brrr). And finding out C sidesis coming back! Cherry on top for me XD
your guess on why last reel sounds different on easy is actually pretty spot on, that version's from a demo released quite a while before the full thing
My top 10 songs with some honorable mentions. 1. BIH (Genocide Route) Really good in my opinion and I will say that you could go either way with number 1 and 2 also I think abbreviating the genocide song as BIH is really funny to me for some reason. 2. Final Stretch This is a really good song and could be number one but I just prefer BIH to Final Stretch 3. Last Reel I have various opinions on the Bendy franchise but DANG this is good 4. Technicolor Tousle I’m a sucker for Cuphead music so almost all songs were great to me but holy cow this one is on point 5. Knockout Once again I’m a sucker for Cuphead music but I prefer Technicolor Tussle 6. Devil’s Gambit In my opinion two of the three Nightmare songs are actually amazing and Devils gambit is by far the best one 7. Bonedoggle Honestly the more I listen to this one the better it gets so for me it’s only seventh but it could very well be higher 8. Whoopee I think that Whoopee is good but I’m not huge on it, the references are great but I just think it’s a great song but not crazy 9. Bad Time Once again Bad Time could very easily get higher and could easily take down Whoopee for me, great song really like the style 10. Sansational Really good and like Bonedoggle and Bad Time it could get higher in the future but for now making the top ten should be enough Honorable Mentions- Nightmare Run, Satanic Funkin, Snake Eyes, Bad to the Bone, and Imminent Demise. Nightmare Run is really close to the top ten but for now it’s held back because unlike Sansational, Bonedoggle, and Bad Time I’m not thinking it’s getting better and better each time it’s just a really good and consistent song. Satanic Funkin is held back due to the length, I think if it was 30 or so seconds longer it would have made the top 10. Snake Eyes is really good but there’s a reason it’s the first song, it sounds great but it’s pretty basic in comparison to the rest of Cupheads songs. Bad to the Bone is held back because I just think that Bonedoggle is way better and while Bad to the Bone is great it is also kinda basic at times if it was 30 or so seconds longer it probably would have made the top 10 just like Satanic Funkin. Imminent Demise to me is underrated but it’s held back because of when the song ends, had the start of Terrible Sin been the end to Imminent Demise it would be a top 5 song at minimum but sadly I just think the ending is okay. In my opinion there isn’t a single song in the mod that’s directly “bad”.
I absolutely love your videos man! Sometime in the future, could you do a video on the Hypnos Lullaby Mod, the music might be some of the best in all of Friday Night Funkin'! It is a bit spooky though so I'm not sure if you'll like it or not, plus it's very hard
Interesting that your brain went to Song That Might Play When You Fight Sans for Burning in Hell, mine jumped to It's Raining Somewhere Else. I guess it just felt more somber to me
This is one of the most high quality videos I have ever seen. I can't put it into words. Pretty funny, informant, just overall amazing video. Indie Cross definitely deserves this treatment for being just a pile of actual bangers. The only thing I disagree with is that Burning in Hell should be a 5/5. It's just such an amazing song that basically just turned the entire genocide route into a music file. It's just an absolute banger. I'd put it at #1. But that's my opinion. Amazing video my guy. Keep. It. Up.
at 57:31 when you die to nightmare bendy the theme is actually a slowed down version of the song "sketches" from the title screen of bendy and the ink machine. (really obscure fact I know) regardless of that, fantastic video! You deserve more subs.
i was praying for freaky machine to get a 5/5 the whole time 😭 i heard it before i got into indie cross and was like "oh this is cool" and then listened to it for 8 hours straight on a work shift so it has a special place in my heart lmao. awesome video though, can clearly see how much you love fnf and this mod (:
A little reference in the bendy week you might of missed since your a bit unfamiliar with the game is in the first cutscene of the week when bf finds the bendy cutout it plays the same sound effect that plays in the game whenever the bendy cutout pops out from a corner :)
Last Reel easy is a beta version of the song. Back when the fist demo came out with Snake Eyes, Sansational, and Last Reel, Last Reel was the version used in the easy difficulty while the remastered one was used in the final release.
Some things about the song “Last reel” -the 3,2,1 go! That plays near the ending is a reference to the ending of the game (No spoilers) -The ink thingys are called the butcher gang -Bendy’s “ink rain” gets rid of all the butcher gang members
I like how all the creators with the cuphead songs were like "yeah! Love this!" And the creators for the Undertale songs were also like "yeah! Love this!" And the creators for Bendy were like, "eh... okay sure." Poor Bendy.
Absolutely loved this video, surprised it's not gotten a lot of attention! The amount of care and attention put into analyzing the ost is refreshing after watching just gameplay videos where everyone's yelling about how hard it is. I think the reason none of the pause or game over screens had anything in the bendy week was because... yeah in the actual game there's... not much in the way of any kind of soundtrack? Bendy and the ink machine doesn't have music so much as it has ambience with a few stings or boss themes thrown in there... which as a huge bendy fan and also a musician myself is rather disappointing. The few songs that ARE on the batim ost are pretty good though, and the fansongs are all INCREDIBLE. I do wish they'd done some death effects in the mod though, in batim if you die you end up in the inky tunnel that shows up at the start of the bendy week. As for ritual... the character there is Sammy Lawrence, former composer turned bendy-worshipping cultist. He's a massive fan favorite and THEORETICALLY he SHOULD be an important character but... he consistently is given like 5 minutes of screen time before getting killed off. He's been elaborated on in the books since then, but he still absolutely has not been given the attention deserved by the devs. As a massive Sammy fan, I was VERY excited to see him, and I can say they nailed his vibes in this game with both his vocals and his overall behavior. Sinister and scary, but overall not that much of a threat. I also love his animations, that axe twirl is so funny. Showing off to appease the ink demon. And that laugh at the end... I need to cut this off before I start swooning. Really enjoyed the video! definitely got a sub and a like from me
My bro, this video is incredible, it feels just like a professional videogame interview and behind the scenes, you put so much effort and the fact that you got part of the devs to talk with is amazing!, its the first video of yours i see and i want to see more! you deserve more views, im definitely subscribing
You my sir has earned my subscription. Your content is so amazing and funny and there are way many other RU-vidr that spends so much less effort and get more views which is really unfair I hope you continue to make videos because this one was a banger!!!🔥🔥🔥❤
Great video! Seriously underrated, you just got a new subscriber. The amount of effort into the editing and the great commentary helped so much. So great to see you get some more attention!
Outstanding video, I wish more people saw it. When I first saw this channel I was convinced that it would have like a million subscribers, amazing editing.
If you’re gonna check out another amazing FNF soundtrack, take a look at the Hotline 024 mod. It’s currently a demo with the full mod planned for next year, but the songs in the demo are absolutely amazing with Broadcasting, Deathmatch Remix, and Astral Projection being my top three from it. Saruky is actually the head behind this mod if that gives you any indication.
Sans is alive during bad to the bone, it's proved by sans being kinda aggressive towards frisk during week 2, he only rights Frisk on the genocide route, as in papyrus is already dead while we are playing week 2, so after week 2 is over, frisk resets and papyrus is back, on the pacifist route sans becomes some sort of friend to bf and sings with us along side papyrus, but if we do the genocide route and kill sans, he doesn't really trust us after what happened back then, so only papyrus shows up. This is my theory.
Now that you did this masterpiece (sorry but both last reels deserved to be higher) you HAVE to get Mike Geno on for his fan indie cross song/mod: Crossed Out. It is a song that he came up with and eventually, along with a couple others, released as a fan mod, and I think is going in the future V2 of this whole thing. It is a bit like the Triple Trouble song from the Sonic.EXE mod, where Cuphead, Sans and Bendy team up in one 5 minute BANGER of a song. They each have their own little sections with each in between having the ones that appeared so far team up in a couple verses. And after Bendy’s section, they all group up, in their NIGHTMARE forms and try to take BF down once and for all in 4 AMAZING verses. During this masterpiece of a song, most and even more of the mechanics from the og mod appear as well, with some having tweaks. All in all, it is an INSANELY hard but extremely awesome song made by Mike and it is one of my personal favorite songs of ALL time. (Mechanic explanations in my replies)
So cuphead’s mechanics, they are a bit of a mashup of his mechanics. Whenever you get a party note you get the card, and you have to use this card whenever you won’t survive one of his turns (during which he will snap his fingers or launch projectiles at you) the bigger projectiles in this are unavoidable and you have to heal with the card in order to survive a turn. More on him later on. Sans mechanics are almost the same, with a little more. Along with the dodging floor bones, blue and orange bone notes, you also have the mini game where you control the heart and have to avoid his attacks, of which include ghasterblasters, one-shot line hand things, cross bones and moving bones (moving bones include both white and blue versions just like in the game) that is pretty much all his stuff, and in addition, during the times when cuphead is with him, cuphead launches projectiles in the mini game that you have to avoid as well. Overall a hard mechanic to master and you’ll spend a while on it. During Bendy’s parts, you have ink notes (slowly covers screen in ink if hit) shadow notes (instant kill) and dark versions of all the notes. Tbh, his section is probably the easiest since you pretty much have to avoid his notes only. Then in the final section where they are all together, it is a large combination of every single mechanic up to this point, the first two verses in here are just dealing with the special notes, cuphead’s stuff and Bendy’s health drain. Then the final two verses have the mini game along with the special notes, etc. along with everything explained up to this point, bendy sends ink downward through the screen that your heart has to avoid. In the final verse when the 3 are doing their thing, within the mini game everything is going to s***. Ghasterblasters are constantly firing at you, there are so many projectiles launching at you and a giant ball of the 3 is slowly coming at you where it restricts you from the rest of the screen. Overall, the final 4 verses of the song are literal CHAOS, and if you want footage, I recommend you either A, do botplay, or B, use someone else’s Full Clear footage and credit them. I, unless I became a literal god at this game, would NEVER attempt to beat this song. Even on easy it’s insane. But yeah, it’s a fun song and I love it! 🤩
There's this game called funky Friday on Roblox. That part of despair that bendy sings where he goes crazy, aced it with only one ok and three greats on first try. It's that part why I like this song the most out of this entire mod.
Just saw the 2 hours of video and I enjoyed a lot the amount of effort you put on it, I had a great time and I'm looking forward to your next videos, I hope your channel becomes bigger and bigger 'cause you deserve it man, top tier content right here
