the exo mechs. [TEASER 2] 

i'm not done yet.

this is the silksong of calamity

The solemnity of this track... that sense of finality and yet pain filled. Gives me the chills

She dradeon on my mechs till my exo prisims

After your announcement that you were leaving calamity, I was worried that we'd never see your version of this theme but now I'm excited for the full release

Here we are, it's the last straight line before you can finally breathe a little. Thank you for all the work you've put in place to satisfy calamity fans :)

I don’t give a shit how long the production takes if it’s going to be this goddamm good all the way through. Bravo!

calamity mfs be like: "dokuro when is the next song coming out" my brother in christ he has nothing to make a song for

When I listen to this theme I think “this is it we’re finally taking out the big bad guy!” Which makes sense because Yharim and SCal have stopped throwing their temper tantrums. Yharim’s army are not a threat. They are dormant. You always engage the battle. While something similar can be said for Draedon, he’s different. He’s always working on his creations. You never defeat him. In fact, you help him by giving him your battle data. Draedon might create even more powerful god like monstrosities in the future. He and his creations might be the final super boss.

I mean this in every sense of the word: What you've shown so far of this track is perfect.

It’s crazy how a 46 seconds audio clip can give me so much chills…

Holy shit, this is beautiful. I'm going to love this whole song.

this has strong Risk of Rain vibes yet still unique to calamity, and I absolutely LOVE it

This is already a masterpiece, I cannot wait to hear what the full versions sounds like!

I honestly cannot wait for the full version. I knew you were gonna make it a banger. This is amazing!

charlie keeps the DM DOKURO bells tradition so well

I hope this teasers makes those people understand time=quality

The fact that this is taking so long means CD must be cookin' something extraordinary 🔥🔥🔥

I just recently got into calamity im almost done with my first playthrough im on scal. one of the main reasons for me starting calamity was the music because i love all of it. i feel that anyone that has ever had a part in making music for calamity are legends because its hard especially when parts of the community are extremely toxic. the situation with dokuro leaving because of how bad the community was at the time was terrible and never should have happened. seeing people like you carry on his legacy and put your own spin on calamity music is amazing. absolute legend this sounds amazing and i cant wait for the full song to be released. take your time and keep up the good work!

It's sounding amazing CD. We really do appreciate everything you did for the calamity community and look forward to it's release.

I was originally going to wait until the full release of this song, but i probably would have forgotten so here it is. Thank you CD, for all the music you have provided us Terraria fans throughout the years, from your Calamity remixes, Damage Control, Terrawaves, the Boss Rush themes, and finally this (sorry if I am forgetting anything). I wish you the best of luck for whatever project you decide to pick up after this is all said and done. Yet again, Thank you.

Sounds absolutely phenomenal and I can’t wait to hear the full thing once you finish this saga!

I can already tell this is going to be one of the best songs in the entire mod, thank you for not giving up on it

"I just want to be done with this so I can move on. I don't want this burden anymore. and it just feels heavier the more I put off the inevitable. I know I've made far too many excuses to let it take this long. I want to end this. now." 0:25

this is definitely gonna be an instant addition to my playlist when it comes out, keep up the good work.

Holy hell, I can just picture the scene already. It sounds as if it's a breath of air, or a change in perspectives from the player to Draedon himself. I'd imagine the camera panning through and above the clouds to Draedon's view, looking on in sated observation to the perfect war he crafted in a contrastingly radiant way. Phenomenal work, and happy birthday!

Well, all I gotta say is that I'm happy you'll finish this, even though you left the Calamity team. Keep it up, sounds really lit even now with these two teasers, so I can't wait to see the whole song. But no pushing of course, everybody knows that you gotta take your time to make it amazing

It feels so nostalgic… but I’ve never heard art like this before.

good god i am /so/ excited for this theme, thank you so much for taking the time to finish it even after you've left the team! this is genuinely fantastic and i'm glad you're pushing through til' it's done.

He's cooking with the sun it's so fire.

Man your music is absolutely fantastic! I can't wait to see the grand finale of Calamity starting with Draedon.

Man since i heard this teaser for the first time i couldn't stop listening to it. Hope you the best finishing this

This totally has Final boss vibes! God, you music is amazing!!! I love that electric bass in the back and the use of the bell! I'm willing to wait for an entire YEAR, this sounds like it will be one of the best songs I've heard man! Take as much time as you need!

this is the best 40 seconds I’ve ever heard

i love the way this makes you reflect upon everything you went through, that feeling of "your journey is almost done" whilst hinting towards more to come at the same time. It's too much for me not to hype over the full track (take your time)

A rushed song is forever bad but a good song is worth the wait

Absolutely beautiful!

The guitar man, gahdamn. The bells backing it up are great, too. Can't wait for the full thing, this sounds amazing.

god this is incredible, feels so emotionally powerful. Goosebumps all the way through

I'm beyond excited to hear this. Not only as a theme, but as a track and a piece of video game music history. Just from the two teasers you've shown us, it's going to be absolutely insane. But please, do take your time with it, there's no need to rush perfection!

bro still cooking

ive been avoiding the streams, so having this be my first teaser to the final track and... god fucking damn dude you did not need to go this hard for a terraria mod, but i am not complaining! best of luck and plenty of support on getting the rest of the track done! been loving your stuff on cubic so honestly this is just the cherry on top

Ive loved watching you produce this these past few months. lots of growth, lots of struggle. worth it. good job my friend 🙏

you ate so hard omggggg !!!! I was just thinking about this song when you happened to upload it lol. great work! I’ll be cheering you on!

Oh I'm looking forward to this, sounds awesome so far!

HOOOO BOY!!!! This teaser just gets me excited for whats to come. Even if it is your final calamity track, this is a crazy way to end it off.

Even after everything you are still going out with a bang. Thank you for all your amazing tracks you did, I am sure this one will be absolute fire as well 🔥🔥🔥

this sounds absolutely amazing !!!! im so glad that you chose to prioritize mental health over work and i hope that youll find enjoyment in your future projects !! ❤❤❤ you made calamity special

This Teaser like the last is great CD. This is a fantastic job!

Can't wait to listen to the full theme. It's perfect.

Finally some updates. I can tell from these teasers, and the amount of times you have redone the theme that the final product will be cool, and high quality.

What I always really liked about the soundtrack of calamity mod, are the emotions it transmits, be it... motivating, inspiring, relaxing, emotional, frantic and many more emotions. It doesn't matter what music it is, but a theme always has something to convey or represent, and the draedon theme will be a sample of it... As always, excellent work CDMusic :D

Take all the time you need, but holy crap, this is so much better than I expected, and I expected a LOT of this.

This theme fits perfectly with the exo-mechs. It sounds emotional and intense. It just makes you think how far you've come and the memories you have made. and it's really adrenaline puming aswell

When I listen to this theme...It sounds like I've done everything there is and I've gained all the power imaginable....yet...The second/third to last event has only begun as the music ramps up...Amazing track so far...Absolutely in awe!

From this teaser I conclude that it is being worth the wait,it is one of the best calamity tracks i've ever heard

cannot wait. This sounds so damn good, worth every second of the wait.

It's safe to say, the eggs-o mecks have changed Calamity and its developers, composers, and community as a whole

i cant wait for this glorious song to be finished, great job on this CD

As of lately I've been wondering if you were working on the theme, despite knowing you would finish it, I just wished to hear what you would compose for the Mod, hear what would the fabled Exo Mechs theme by you would sound like, with high hopes. These prays of mine were surely answered, and I could not be any happier! From what I can see this is but the buildup for what we will have soon, and I can't wait to finally hear the finalized song in all of its glory when I fight the Exo Mechs again. I salute you, despite your brief passage on the Mod, I am sure you would have been someone worthy of the title you held, and I wait, patiently, for this masterpiece to come out.

Wow. Good job Charlie! I am excited to hear the rest of this theme! When it is done, of course.

I know that no matter what, it will be fire. The music you make all the time is phenomenal and I cannot wait until this is completed.

Ok, THIS is gonna be insane :D Sounds amazing already!

I have not played calamity in a good while, but when this absolute BANGER drops, I think I might have to

Holy hell this is immaculate already, I can't wait to hear the full thing as draedon vaporizes me

praise the bells 🔔🔔

Bro just can't miss with these songs

My respect for you is of the highest regard. Left with no reason to continue, yet still committed to finishing your final project. This is going to bang.

I have a feeling that the final product is gonna be so damn good it's worth the wait

…I have been absolutely blown away by every single one of your releases for Calamity. You were, by far, the perfect choice for their next composer. I know you’ll exceed all of our expectations when you finish this track. Keep it up, CD!

holy shit this teaser goes hard, i don't care how much time it gets, i want to hear this masterpiece when totally done!

GAH DAMN THIS SOUNDS SO GOOD! wow this really looks promessing, i'll wait all the time needed for this masterpiece

This song sounds awesome so far! Keep up the great work, it will sound great when you finish it 👍

This sounds like a cutscene for Draedon before the next phase.

oh them calamity bells, excellent, cant wait to hear it.

Oh hell yeah! I'm so impressed that you're sticking through this :)

Thank you for pushing through and finishing this track Thank you.

I am more than excited to listen to the complete song! Take your time, don't let your fans rush you!

Yep, this is going to be absolutely godlike when it's done. I'm 100% certain of that. Also, it's a real shame that you won't do boss rush 4 and 5 themes after this, but it is what it is. Can't blame you for leaving the spot as Calamity composer so soon. I wouldn't be able to withstand such overwhelming weight on my shoulders too, that's for sure. You have my full respects.

Even these teaser tracks, mere SNIPS of the full track are so good, I might as well include them as their own songs alongside the finished track in my ultimate Draedon playlist.

RAAAAAAAAH!!! RAAAAAAAAH! OOGA BOOGA Translation: (I find this absolutely amazing, and so I ascended to heaven so much that I went back in time just to learn cave man. Thank you for making my day, CD. Happy Birthday!)

This song, like the exo mechs, will surpass gods. I fell every note that plays, and am patiently (although internally screaming in excitement) waiting for the full release! Keep going!

I really respect the effort youre taking to keep this going for us. You had no obligation to finish, but you continued anyway. Please, take all the time you need - whether that means slowly chipping away at it for another year, or getting it done ASAP so you can move on, I will support it either way. What you have made already is incredible, Its such a shame calamity seems to be cursed like this.

oh my god- this has such a sad and desperate feel to it, distorted machinations- this is gonna be GOOD!

As someone who heard half of it on twitch, this looks so cool and fit the end of the fight perfectly, hoping everything goes well with you man

I genuinely love this so much

After not touching Terraria or the Calamity community for a while and coming back after a while and finding this banger in my recommended makes me super excited for the finished product!! good luck, mate!!

This is amazing, take your time man and I appreciate what you’re doing.

Holy shit, i remember watching the stream for it. This is new. Sounds great, and always remember, take your time, work on it on your own time, no matter how long it takes, the end result will be great, because you put time and effort into it, taking it slow and making sure it's a masterpiece. All great masterpieces take time, and taking breaks is always important

I may never know what you've been through, but it's enough for me to listen to the fan-made songs to understand that you carry an unpleasant weight on your conscience. I don't know if other communities or projects generated the same stress for you, but each song that is made by the Exo Mechs only raises expectations more. And yes, I love fan-made projects, I don't want to imagine how painful it must be for you to make your version. I know as an artist that inspiration reacts to your state of mind and personal... DMdokuro made great songs in a ridiculously short time, and he did it out of love for the art. I sacrifice his health to do that. But by good people, he was able to take the high road and stop hurting himself with the name Calamity Mod. Mr. CDmusic, from my heart, you have the right to a better quality of life, do not hurt yourself with this project. Not worth it. I don't know what your work team is like, or the active members of the Mod, but the anecdotes of my friends are true, the work environment is not pleasant. And more with a boss who does not take into account the work of his other colleagues. CDmusic, I wish you the best and whatever you decide to do, please watch over your quality of life. Nobody deserves this, neither you, nor DMdokuro, nor anyone who comes after.

dude this sounds sick, cannot wait for the final result!

imma hear this on loop till you're done

However much longer this track takes I'll be waiting eagerly because WHOOOHWBWHSHS DAMNNN!

i like imagining this is a part after the super sick solo we got in the first teaser, and its just like the calm before and after the storm, and after this part its gonna be an even more sick solo, kinda like catastrophic fabrication with the draedon motif playing than it ripping out chaotic stream of shit

Wow this is beautiful. I am speechless

this is insanity i love it

genuinely incredible, im so excited for this

THAT'S SO AWESOME Keep up thehard work CDMusic!!

this part is gonna be one of the best... it'll mostly be a cooldown from the battle and draedon going like "hey i know my mechs are gonna die but at least they're going off with a bang"

Oh my goodness. This is absolutely amazing.
