If you’re new here: I’m working on a whole album of music like this. There’s a playlist on my channel. Drop a sub to support more Silksong music!
wish you luck cmon give us silksong ost before game comes out
You would have to pry the subscribe button from my cold dead hands to get me to unsubscribe (I am liking your music a normal amount (lies)).
@@rawrxd6652Your comments made me laugh so hard dude. Happy you’re enjoying the music
FINALLY HOLLOWKNIGHT AND SILK SONG MUSIC. Fuck yeah dude, I agree with my man. The subscribe button is going to be nailed to my fridge, a testament to good music.
DUDE I NEED A LYRICS ON EVERY VID
We got Silksong's final boss before Silksong 😭
frrr
💀
💀
thee shall stay determent, unavoidable release must be cast on heads of ours as a great praise for infinite patience.
The video title, I almost had a heart attack
Had me looking at my screen like “Wait when the hell did we get news on Silksong?”
Same lol
Ikr, I was like "I missed the announcement and the release?!?".
@@Cole_McGill It's been out for three years what you on about
same
"The game will never reach up to its hype!"
"What if it does...?"
It will
@@RecDud3they’re probably desperately trying to make the game better and better to match the hype. It’s hopeless, the hype grows with each passing day, meanwhile a game can only be so good.
I unironically hope Team Cherry Focuses on the main game and content rather than add hundreds of unrelated features. They only made one game to my knowledge :). edit: was a reply to another comment.
Or perhaps It shall be something far far beyond
@@hexretro8112when did I ever mention adding hundreds of features. I said making the game _better,_ not _worse._ which usually means diversifying artwork, adding more intricate detail, ensuring little things like an ice attack melting when it hits some small unimportant thing that reasonably should be hot like a lightbulb are added, thereby making the world more interactible and feel like a place rather than an obstacle course, making the characters more lifelike and diverse both in terms of individually and adding more, and changing around the environment to make it feel and be better.
Polishing what you have to a pristine shine.
I realize now that these words could be taken drastically differently depending on their tone. To avoid confusion and hostility, the tone of the text above this is: confusion in the first sentence, neutral tone in the second, and the rest is me explaining passionately about something I like.
If the Shade Lord popped up and this BANGER started playing I would quite literally cry
Of how good it is, don't misunderstand me pls this is fire
I'd love to see shade lord as a secret endgame boss for silksong, though the chances of that happening are unfortunately basically zero.
Oh well, there's always mods
@@miscellaneous663Yeah, that'd be cool. Kinda like fighting Nameless King from DS3. He's an optional boss, but arguably harder than the final boss
maybe we will find him in a DLC, and he will be the true finale boss that shows us how the world became once void toke over, kinda like slave knight geal from DS3
I don't understand why the godhome ending would be a cliffhanger if the hollow knight and him aren't in the game somwhow.somehow. they wouldn't make a cliffhanger ending like that for no reason.
honestly the lord of shades could be one of the best boss fights in gaming history if they decide to do it
Agreed
Im not sure how would they make him work with the gameplay of silksong as he seems to be closer to something you would see in terraria BUT if they can pull that off I'm all in.
I think it would be one of those unbeatable bosses that you cant truly kill but instead convince to spare you.
I want lord of shades to be the good guy. though dunge eater is good and was a boss so its possible.
the idea of fighting yourself from the old hollow knight is great because it would be like progressing past your former power to be even better.
“Your honor, the song is peak.”
My train of thought: If the true final boss of Hollow Knight is the sun, therefore the true final boss of Silksong will be the moon
or rather if the final boss was the light then silksong will have darkness
that would actually be sick
Nah,
*It will be the whole sky*
hk and the void was the moon of hk so in silksong the final boss will be an eclipse
The pale king is the moon in the first game
You cannot hide from us Christopher Larkin.
Jokes aside this is insane???
Like this is REALLY good, I don't think I have anything to say that the pinned comment hasn't already lmao
Thanks, I worked super hard on this one! Hopefully Christopher sees this some day, that'd be fun.
The Shade Lord would make the perfect secret-final-boss.
It would be just the best way to conclude it, having both game's final boss be a God.
"I've defeated you twice little spider, I can do it again."
Imagine if it was the mc🤧
that’d be the knight
There's a bit of Hornet's boss theme in there and I love it. Well done!
and the welcome to hallownest
and the sealed vessel (both first and second part)
and a bit of other songs like nightmare king and the radiance
and ...
and queen of hallownest
and so much more omg can i stop please (yes, but will i?)
And it makes total sense because it's Hornet vs Shade Lord after all. It also makes sense that some of Hornet's theme is present whereas the Knight doesn't have any theme present in any of the themes, because Hornet has a "voice" to speak, whereas the Knight doesn't.
GOD I WISH THIS WAS IN THE GAME CHRISTOPHER LARKIN IS SHAKING
FUCK OMG THE OG HOLLOW KNIGHT THEME
@@christinarose8196 😂
My brother didn't have to cook this hard and yet he did, he fuckging did
i hope the devs see this and get some delicious ideas for silksong DLCs if any.
Watch them make a dlc for silksong and have it take longer than Shadow of the Erdtree to come out, Joking of course...
@@pillow_ben6799Watch them make DLC for Silksong only for it to be turned into a full game.
If they don't run out of money before doing everything they want (which I doubt) there shouldn't be DLCs.
@@pillow_ben6799 watch them make a dlc for silksong bigger than Shadow of the Erdtree and make it free 💀
@@pillow_ben6799 Watch them make a dlc for silksong and have it come out before the base game
We see in the final arena the challenge prompt when facing the world's crescent moon, but then its revealed that the shadow across it was the Shade Lord resting on it making it a crescent when it was actually a full moon.
Oh my GOD! AH! This is so good! Seriously, I love this so much. It's such a unique sound, with some of the choral elements (getting heavy Shriek and Ori, from WotW vibes), but still feels distinctly Hollow Knight, especially with the strings. I love all the leitmotifs, calling back to Sealed Vessel, the main theme, Hornet's theme... The idea I'm inferring from this (and the artwork), that the Shade Lord from the Godmaster ending is the final boss, and it's Hornet fighting it? Ah, that's so cool! And this perfectly captures it, I think- it'd be such a different fight, and feel to anything else in the game. Absolutely incredible work, please continue making music man, you're amazing!
Ueeheehee I'm not the only one who thought part of it sounded like Ori!
pretty much
I'M NOT FALLING FOR THIS SHIT 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️ * insert evil Papyrus image *
This song is nice
Lol
"oh please dont kill me!" Dont make me laugh!
@@tulatula6314 ion get it
This is so fucking peak, I’m losing my mind. The use of the vessel motif, and the Hornet theme, and the drums, and the vocals, and the strings, and everything. This is way too good
2:10 Literal chills when the Sealed Vessel leitmotif started
Can imagine the boss being like before the battle
"I was forgotten... cast aside... abused... all for the sake of blotching out your wretched sun that proclaimed itself a god. Yet... now that I'm freed of such trivial disputes and move onward... THIS IS HOW YOU THANK ME?! Your nothing but the trophy of a deal... a deal your mother made just to please a selfish false ruler and to save what little pride she had left! Witness... dear daughter of hallownest... the birth of your DEMISE!"
THIS IS SO INSANE BUT I WOULD DEFINITELY CRY IF SHADE LORD SAYS THAT💔 GUYS DON'T FIGHT YOU ARE FAM
SOMEONE MAKE A BOSS REPRESENTING THIS
I kinda wanna try voicing this. This is amazing.
PIANO COVER WHEN. I NEED TO PLAY THIS UNTIL MY FINGERS ARE DUST AND THE WORLD IS FIRE, IF NO ONE ELSE WILL MAKE ONE I'LL HAVE TO AND IT WON'T BE ANYWHERE AS GOOD
dear deities HMU IF YOU FIND ANYTHING I BEG ON MY HANDS AND KNEES
If u find it u better upload it to yt and tell me
genuinely stunning, this music is loaded with i̶n̶n̶u̶e̶n̶d̶o̶ references. i love the use of various leitmotifs, this is truly a masterpiece of composition. keep up the good work, you're very talented!
I think you mean references, not innuendos hahaha. But thank you nonetheless :P
@@dutonic maybe, english isn't my mother tongue lmao
i sometimes try to speak it with more formal terms in order to achieve some progress but the risk of making semantic errors increases accordingly haha
@@pewffle Perfectly understandable, we all learn. Innuendo is a statement with sexual undertones.
@@theoutergod8666 WHAT THE ACTUAL HELL okay i definitely didn't mean that lmaooo
thanks now i won't make that mistake again haha
@@pewffle im a native english speaker and i didn't know in the slightest that word even existed lol
you're a god damn musical genius
Dude, I've got chills...
This is undoubtedly the best hollow knight silksong fan music on youtube.
A quick reminder that hornet is part wyrn SO there could be giant things happening in that final boss fight
I love how it goes from the usual vessel motif into Hornet’s theme! And something about that part right at the end, before Hornet’s theme comes in (right near here 6:47 I think), made me think of the Radiance fight. Not sure how, just an odd feeling. This song feels like a passing of the torch in a way, like this is what solidifies Hornet as her own separate character, not just a character in another’s world. No longer is it Hollow Knight: Silksong, it is instead now simply: *Silksong.*
It really feels like the song of the ruler of the abyss. We can assume that the boss is the hollow knight in the most powerful form ever seen, and I would love to see all the songs related to a silksong motiv in the game, and then you fight THIS, and the song is more related to the original game. That would be absolutely NUTS.
Apex of the Abyss - THE SHADE LORD
Absolutely FANTASTIC!!! It's so fitting with the style of Hollow Knight's musical style while also applying Silksong's seeming inclination over string instruments across it's own. Not to mention how ominous and opressive the "Heart of the Abyss" part is contrasting with "Queensoul"'s strained hope. It's so powerful and memorable, and i can only hope the real thing can provide something just as incredible as this. Amazing work overall!
That’s very kind of you to say, thanks!
In all honesty, this song must be the best song I have ever heard. From the start to the finish, there was a beutiful composition of synergy between all the major themes in Hollow Knight, like, for example, The Hollow Knight's theme, Hornet's theme and many others which all combined together with the excellent playing of the violin, make a canvas that in it of itself is THE definition of Hollow Knight's music. Calling this work of art anything other than a masterpiece would be criminal. Bravo mr. Dutonic, just... bravo. You fully earned my subscribtion and my respect. Keep it up.
Imagine seing a huge LORD OF SHADES boss screen title with a complete black background with a abyss themed battle arena
I wish this becomes an official soundtrack for silksong tho, BECAUSE THIS IS FIRE, TEAM CHERRY NEEDS TO SEE THIS MASTERPIECE SIR,😭😭✋🏻
This is SOOOO good. I imagine the first phase being you fighting "the knight", well, at least whats left of him, and then on the inbetween we have a cutscene where the knights shell breaks open and the shade lord finally breaks free, revealing his true strengh. You fight him a while, untill you eventually get him into a Radience style escape phase, where your "Silk-soul" (a combination of the silk of spiders and soul of the higher beings, which Hornet unites) gains in strengh and like the shades in Radience, you start winning and taking the upper hand. Ending in finishing the shade lord off, perfectly timed with the music ending. I cant wait to see it all myself.......... in about a thousand years:)
I hadn’t thought of fighting the knight. That’s very cool
@@dutonicThe thought of this music being made by one person is crazy, it's so good!
It would be both kinda funny but also pretty sad if the boss was named “Little Ghost”
@@sentientmustache8360 it would more likely be called 'The Dark Half-Sibling' or something like that honestly
@@ElGoobero-jv7xb No, "little ghost" is what Hornet called him, and its very likely that the names are stemming from the main character themself, who make up names for what they are fighting. Also, "little ghost" sounds better and is a reference to Hollow Knight.
0:05 I have never felt more called out than I did when I skipped ahead and immediately saw this.
That’s so funny
i love how it feels a bit like a mashup of hornet and sealed vessel
The final boss is it's release date
I'm imagining the fight starting with Hornet attacking different void tendrils. The tendrils close by fight back, but the main body doesn't even notice cause it's that huge. When you start to hear the sealed vessel theme at 2:13 I imagine that the "siblings" in hollow knight fight hornet as she makes her way further. When the sealed vessel theme suddenly stops and the track becomes spooky at 2:40, the Shade Lord actually notices Hornet. It then plays an animation of it turning around and getting ready for battle until 3:50. Then the fight starts by Hornet just avoiding the Shade Lord attacks and making her way up to the monster. The music notes go upwards like how Hornet platforms upwards. Then when she reaches the top at 5:06 she leaps to the face of the Shade Lord and attacks it. The Shade Lord screams in anger and void swarms the area and contains and traps Hornet and the Shade Lord in an arena. Then they fight until 6:54 where the Shade Lord is knocked back and the void surrounding them opens up. Hornet has gained control of the fight and wins at the end.
This is amazing! You did an excellent job of capturing the dread and terror of the abyss. When Hornet's theme kicked in, I got chills!
Me too bro
HOLY FUCKING SHIT THIS IS SO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Genuinely the vibes transferred through the music are so strong. Something specific that I heard in the song is the strong bee energy in phase 2, which gave me a sort of eldritch desperation vibe. You've broke down its physical form. It's out of the energy needed to present in a logical way. The end of Phase 1 also really does well to demonstrate the hope of finally striking the killing blow and having it on its last legs then you stab it in the heart and what comes out isn't blood but eldritch and horrible power and intelligence. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I'm just trying to process this music beyond the way that it's clearing out my entire brain. I wish you success. Keep making this beautiful music. I will be listening to your whole body of work. My brain chemistry is destroyed. May you become rich and famous. AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. It's so clear how much love and effort and tweaking went into creating this piece and I've already gone through your other Hollow Knight related stuff and I don't know how your two area themes didn't get traction because I really love them. I can feel the dread of how much your music is going to consume my thoughts. It's like approaching a waterfall and knowing that you're fuck. I can feel the autism stirring. This might be worse than the PvZ orchestral remixes. Oh God.
I'm not crying... I'm just...
Sweating from the eyes
The first part of the song gives me the vibe of someone researching or discovering something, perhaps some kind of weakness, or plotting a way to defeat this great foe
Around minute 2 it transitions into this moment of actually preparing this plan that he's concocted.
Around minute 3 the preparations are finished and this person is anticipating the arrival of the great foe
Around minute 4 the great foe arrives the person is seeing his plan unravel as his theories and plans are put into practice.
Around minute 5, through minute 6 they continue to clash against each other in battle
Lastly, nearing the end of the song the battle sees itself a winner.
Very fun non-Hollow Knight interpretation!
I suggested the idea of a void related song for the Silksong series like a year ago. I don’t know weather that’s why you made the song but it’s awesome regardless.
It sounds like that as you fight the shade lord you are slowly spiraling down into the void, getting farther and farther from the beautiful shining citadel at Pharloom’s peak.
The seed of this idea was actually planted in my mind on the Sharp Shadow video by @goddessdeedeebubblesofimag7789. But it wasn't until I got the idea of weaving Hornet's theme into the final boss theme that this song really started coming together in my mind. I would never have imagined writing something 7 and a half minutes though. It was pretty brutal.
this genuinely rekindled my hype for silksong a bit imagining the amazing fight that would go with this phenomenally made track, absolute masterpiece right here. when the vessel theme kicks in around minute 2 it's actually godly I can't lie, same with hornets theme around the 5 and 7 minute marks. this genuinely sounds like something right out of hollow knight, well damn done.
The path of pain, hollow knight starting menu and hornet themes being in this is peak
"Embodiment of the abyssal Void, Shade."
*The eclipse shall begun, the era of the abyss kin shall rise once again, as its lands has long, long ago went silent and dormant..*
"The last hope, is a princess with no kingdom, against a greater will, a king of nothingness that existed far before what once existed, this is the end, and thr beginning.. this is.. *The apogee of all Eras.*
This song has given me nothing but chills. Truly, this is only describable as Radiant. Amazing job Dutonic! excited to see what things you cook up next
This is unironically the best fanmade song I’ve ever heard omg 🫶
This would be perfect if this is the final boss. Wonderful work, Dutonic!
Goosebumps, incredible work
Damn that's awesome. There are so many Hollow Knight motifs and it would be interesting to see what motifs Silksong's music will have.
In the art, it looks like the shade lord ripped off one of the radiance's wings, kind of like it's playing with it's prey before dragging it into the void
the leitmotif is GAS bro
This video single-handedly reignited my hype for silksong
Even though the shade lord will likely not be the final boss, the concept itself is just amazing
I love how it has the background creepiness of the void, but on top of that it's aggressive due to the Lord of Shade's will and wrath. Then there's the sealed vessel theme, signifying the tragic past, which quickly becomes threatening, as that old self is gone. There's the chanting, which shows the LoS's divinity, just like the Radiance. And then there is Hornet's theme, as she gains the power to win (queensoul, cool idea).
And now I wonder if/how Hornet's theme will appear in Silksong. Unlike in Hollow Knight where the main themes show up when you discover important things, Hornet isn't connected to Pharloom (that we know of). I'm sure it'll show up somewhere, but she's not a boss this time.
Lovely comment! You saw all my ideas
bro all the little refrains of the main theme are used perfectly I'm in love with this ❤❤❤
Larkin would be proud... this is insane. Motifs upon motifs, with a unique spin on all of them, incredible work.
I was scrolling through my recommended videos and I saw this, I clicked and almost instantly subbed, keep up the amazing work!
One other thing, this sounds like it could be in the official soundtrack, you actually deserve more attention than you have.
I hope this awesome piece gets loads of attention!
Somene once did the lord of shades theme, but now? This like the best conpect song for The God of Gods in Hollow Knight and Silksong.
This is really good. So much so that it makes me afraid that the real thing might not live up to it!
I'm imagining Hornet imbued with the energy of the delicate flower, pure souls from the orinic kingdoms and maybe something else for his confrontation against the Lord of Shades
There is no light that claims to remember the past and join it, nor an emotionless darkness that forgets any past except its hatred towards the light, there is only a white soul born from all the lights of the Orionic world and its history.
great work! both the music and the art.
Oh my gosh another beautiful masterpiece by dutonic
You are a great composer bro, keep it up
God this is so beautiful and impressive dude. Hopefully ill get as good at making orchestral compositions as this!! Christopher Larkin would be so goddamn proud
Love the job u did with the original hollow knight tracks, the music is insane.
U must have worked really hard to reach something like that.
Cannot wait to see ur next work.
Congrats🎉
The letomifs are fire
I’m sorry I just can’t get over the level of dyslexia it took to get to “letomifs” 😂
i've been waiting for a silksong song for a long time.. this will do
The light fades from Pharloom's peak, an earth shattering rumbling as the night floods the sky. From the all encompassing night, it descends, eyes aglow.
The Knight has ascended...
The Dark given form...
The Shade Lord awakens
Also I'm in love with this track.
I'm crying here, this is SO epic!
While hearing this song i imagine in phase 1 all of Pharloom joining you in the figth and this being shown in gameplay as them being part of the background as you pass through the void creatures attacking the city.
In hearth of the abyss i imagine the shade lord taking everyone out and holding them with its tendrils; and in phase 2 start i imagine Hornet seeing the souls of the weavers and her mother just as the void start to take over her soul, the scream at the start being her ripping away her own arm to escape before the figth starts.
In queensoul i imagine the abomination about to give an undodgable attack rigth as hornet's eyes glow, not orange, not white, neither red, but with a gold ligth that burns the tentacles away, then she starts to climb through the now destroyed citadel and freeing citisen after citisen as she climb her way up again to the top to strike the darkness for a last time.
Amazing! I love the sealed vessel pieces in there!
THAT TITLE SCARED ME, nice song by the way, great job
If the shade lord really is the final boss it would be one of the greatest final bosses ever made.
Saw tnis and then checked your channel. Instantly subscribed, this is hella good!!
almost fucking cried listening to this holy shit this is incredible 😭
I’m speechless. This was incredible
absolutely magestic!
This video gives me another hope
10/10 great artwork, great music
This is awesome :o
Everyone seems to agree that Silksong's boss should be the Shade Lord.
damn, it gives me goosebumps
This is beautiful
this is awesome holy
I love this music, we can hear the sealed vessel song in the first part
this kinda fire ngl i came to listen to it after i saw the reddit post keep up the good work
This is a masterpiece
I just realized that the wallpaper was any radiance and the shadow thing from the Pantheon of Hallownest
Perfection nothing else
It doubled my hope
Especially the last segment is chef kiss
BRO THIS IS P E A K IM TELLING YOU ITS SO GOOD
This is masterpiece
I absolutely love this!
I hope Team Cherry sees this and puts it into the game! This is beyond amazing!❤️
Oh God I love the indie productions
incredible
I don’t know what to say that others wont allready have said. The only thing I can say is, from the bortom of my heart. This is a masterpiece. I sounds like it come straight from Cristopher Larkin. Increadibly beutiful! Love it!
Silksong's real final boss is the release date.
SO GOOD
This music Is so perfect to this boss Imagine the abyss distorted
