    Behind the scenes of the recording process of this cover: • Recording a Cover You ...
    Hey guys,
    I held a vote on Patreon to choose the next cover to record, and this mystical, soothing track from The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt won. I love this song. It's so relaxing. It immediately takes me back to the game. Exploring... the sounds of nature... the sunsets. I absolutely loved The Witcher 3.
    Recording this song made me realize how much I enjoy this ambient, flowy type of music. Are there any other songs like this that you guys can recommend? Please let me know in the comments!
    I hope you are well, happy, and healthy. Much love from Mexico.
    Thanks for watching,
    Malu

    Stepping onto the Isles. It’s certainly a literal breath of fresh air after the swamps of velen or the close stench of novigrad. Plus most Skelligs actually treat you with a measure of respect rather than mistrust and contempt like on the continent.

    This song has saved me from post Army suicide. I’m talking finger in the trick, glock in my throat, 1 pound of pressure left on the soft safety before brains on the wall. I have listened to the original version for a thousand hours, night after night for years, and this version dozens more. Insane to stumble on this and see how amazingly well my life has changed since the year after Witcher 3 came out. It gets better friends.

    There’s something about the Witcher games that others just don’t do... from the music, to the fact that Geralt can die and the world won’t be effected as a whole.. it’s YOUR story, you’re not that hero the Gods have chosen.. you’re just a man going through a broken world with a broken past... your only friends slowly going extinct... you’re a dying breed, and that’s what makes it so beautiful, once all of the Witchers die, that’s it, they’re gone for good... the stories make you actually want to partake in them.

    There is something about this game, about the music of this game, about the story and especially, about Skellige. It's my favorite game of all time, and I just started playing it the 5th time (game +). There is no game nearly as beautiful as Witcher 3. I just wish I could play it the first time again. Malukah, you did an amaizing job!

    I remember my first time going to Skellige. This song played as the night settled in with the snow, and the glow of the moon painted over the world around me. The quiet whisper of the wind whistled through the trees. I followed a winding road with no clear destination until I came upon a hill to stop and listen. My mouth was open and I felt an absolute rush of emotion as I struggled to even blink. I’ll never forget that. Absolutely stunning memory…

People don't realize how much power music and art can bring into our lives, I just want to say I'm thankful to be alive and have the experience to listen to such wonderful music. You are amazing! I lol will literally sit here and have your music being played back over and over and still get the chill feelings from how beautiful your voice is with each song you sing, what makes it better you really seem to enjoy it which is a plus.

    this made me cry... My favorite style of game has always been RPG, I have been in contact with video games since I was born. I was born in 2007, the same year The Wicther 1 was released, I remember my father playing and loving the game, I didn't understand much and didn't know how to play, but I already felt a connection with the game, and at least once a day I opened the game just to watch the opening scene of the striga, at that time this was from when I was 3/4 years old until I was 5/6 or so, I remember the release of the witcher 2 too, my uncle bought the collector's edition and it came with a Geralt's statue, but I also didn't get to play because I didn't understand how it worked, I was just a kid. when the witcher 3 was announced my father showed me every trailer that was released, information, videos, and my uncle and I went to a games event here in my country, Brazil. the biggest gaming event in Latin America, BGS (Brazil game show) where we watched an exclusive first-hand gameplay of the game, we won posters and stickers (which I UNFORTUNATELY lost) and in the launch of the game in 2015, when I was 8 years old, I FINALLY I played The Witcher, and since then I haven't stopped. I played all the games, the DLC in their releases, and I beat this game more than 15 times (I lost count of the fifteenth so I don't know how many exactly) and many of these times it was with my father watching me play for most of the time, I even beat the game again a few weeks ago, at least once a year I play the witcher, by the time the first DLC (Hearts of Stone) was released I had already beaten the game 2 or 3 times. Today I'm 2 months and a few days away from turning 18. The Witcher was very important in my life and is to this day extremely important for my personal and professional development, and even a father and son thing as I mentioned earlier. I love this game! the best of all time, and this cover brought me many memories... memories that I will carry with me forever, with great affection.

For some reason I never started playing it even though I wanted. I felt it was a too big effort or time sink or something. Anyway, now the game has become one of my favorite games ever. Even in my ripe old age of 36 where I don't easily get excited of new games. And I especially love the music, AND ESPECIALLY THE FIELDS OF ARD SKELLIG! I arrived to the islands two days ago and I've been blasting the music in and out of the game and now THIS?! =) It's perfect! Thank you!

It's really telling that The Witcher 3 was a product made out of love not just for Witcher fans but for all gamers.
