Today’s my birthday, so it’s been a great gift getting to read all these great comments. It means a lot to me that so many people are connecting with the music.
You still make some of the best music I've ever heard, mr. Chatwood. You sound very humble when someone compliments you but trust me, you have the very rare and precious gift of conveying emotion with music. Maybe you find it natural and think it's not that impressive but it is; you are one of the main reasons why Darkest Dungeon is a masterpiece and you should be proud of that. Happy Birthday, and may your skills continue to grow!
The mitochondria. Engine of all life. Engine of all that is, and all that will be. A dark bargain struck, aeons ago, when life was naught but a faint proposition. For they gave their life so they may live in death, but with strange aeons, even death may die.
The Farmstead is all about a desperate battle to survive against a threat that can never be truly defeated, and I reckon this music captures that feeling perfectly
I have claimed my birth right, but all I got was an invitation to some barracks with barely decent bread and water. Oh, and the offer to go into dungeons with creatures that could kill the average man in a single strike. Is this the correct place?
I don’t think enough people appreciate that this starts as a regular theme we hear like in the ruins or cove and then this savant of video game music hits us with 0:28 and we realize that we ain’t in the ruins anymore
*"Darkest Space Station"* _Ruin has come to our family._ _You remember our venerable station, opulent and imperial, from its stoic perch across the space._
The second part of the song paints a picture of falling into a vortex of madness only to witness a truly foreboding horror that spans all perceivable thought. I love it and I love playing this while I’m working in the lab. It gives me the feels of being a mad scientist
I think this track is one of the best in the game. These alien sounds very well create the image of the Comet as an eldtritch nightmare that distorts space and time.
I love the crawling synth, the song itself feels overgrown somehow. Each of these tracks, the synth just shows that even the already present horrors of this estate are being warped by the comet.
Another masterpiece. This game has so many good songs. Town in Chaos is in my top 5 best videogame ost list, the others being "Confrontation at the mechanical tower" and "At war with Kaileena" from Warrior Within, the Morrowind theme , and "Aleroth Healers House" from Divinity Original Sin. It is really interesting that you composed 3 of the songs in my top 5 list.
I just recently played through this DLC and I cannot describe how your music was an absolute cornerstone to what I played, experienced, and lastly, enjoyed. Thank you so much.
@@SuperSpikewolf Non sapevo, io l'ho conosciuto tramite Darkest Dungeon, troppo belle le musiche di quel gioco. Gli ho chiesto anche se potessi usare le sue musiche per il mio canale TH-cam per la recensione di Darkest Dungeon. Ha risposto molto gentilmente, una bravissima persona e cordiale, oltre l'artista. 😎
As always AMAZING!!!! : D thank you. Keep it up, Ohh 1:24 MAAAN I LOVE IT, I'm just listening to it right now. I love it so much, just like I did with Town in Chaos, still listen to it, it's superb.
You ever just hit that point where you've been exploring an abandoned farmstead which was struck by a meteor and now the radiation is causing crystals to form on your body, the dead farm hands, plowing horses, and foremen are back to life, as the scarecrows are too. Then you start hearing faint techo orchestra that proceedingly gets louder and louder, driving you to madness
I love how so much love and attention to detail went into this project. From the design, the art, the mechanics, the lore, the WRITING, THE MUSIC. I can't wait to see what the Redhook Boys have in store in the future! Mr. Chatwood, I play your music whenever I run Call of Cthulhu tabletop games, I play it FULL BLAST in my car when I go to and from work. I had a young couple look at me from a Prius at a red light ask me what I was listening to. I turned my head slowly with bug eyes, and drop my loudest, deepest baritone, ".......MADNESS!" You can't BUY moments like that! But you CAN support it!
For real dude, fantastic song. I've been listening to it since an hour after you posted it. I love the percussion. You keep on just popping out amazing music, you're extremely talented AND skilled.
This track is the most foreboding thing I've had the horror and enjoyment of listening to. It's to a point where I feel like I'm within that pixelated reality behind my screen. Feeling the aberrant crystals, pulsating and beating with unnatural gleam. Seeing both my past and future.
Ohhhhh my god I love this. Gonna keep on pushing through the DLC just to get to the point where I can hear this track! Perfect mix of everything which made the previous tracks mysterious and tense! With a tiiiiny "otherworldly" vibe to keep you unnerved. Stuart, you've done it again!
Mr. Chatwood, you totally nailed this game. I can't describe how much your soundtracks contributed to make this game so great. Every single tracks gave their unique part and I know I won't forget any of these. I won't write much but I wanted to let you know you have my deep respect (also that "Town in Chaos" was a true masterpiece, if I had to name only one !). I truly hope you'll never lose this love and passion we can feel in your tracks, and I can't wait to hear your music in other games in the future !
Damn.. the memories of playing this game and trying not to lose your favourite hero on the brink of death and madness... Such an amazing soundtrack, love it
Большое спасибо за такое сильное музыкальное сопровождение. Вы создали атмосферу в Darkest Dungeon, и я нередко использую вашу музыку для фоновой музыки проведения игр D&D. Спасибо еще раз!
Thanks! From google translate: Buster lord Many thanks for such a strong musical accompaniment. You created the atmosphere in Darkest Dungeon, and I often use your music for background music to play D & D games. Thanks again!
I find myself listening to this track again and again during several months. The tension is so high, it definitely rivals "Town in Chaos". Thank you very much for your music, it evokes strong emotion for me! Just a note: I don't know why but the moment at 1:37 reminds me of the Prince of Persia (2008) soundtrack (OST 47 'The Steps of Paradise' 2 02, th-cam.com/video/Ik_FAciuwQA/w-d-xo.html ), so I thought that maybe you are the composer of this specific track as well.
I love the emotion you can feel from this musical piece. I gather that it’s just terror and would fit some type of massacre scenario. Keep up the amazing work Mr. Chatwood!!!
Really love your music! It captured me since I played Prince of Persia: sands of time in childhood! The funny thing is that now I am a musician too and hoping to find a job as a film/game composer. Your music has influenced my style a lot! I wish I could find more interviews with you (like "how did you started", your "workflow", maybe your studio and etc).
I f***ing love all of the music! I usualy listen to them for hours long. So tense, so much horror, so much madness and so much beautiness in every note. It is another dimension.
As much as i drop the sound fx, to bulk up the music to play the color of madness, it never seems to be loud enough *.* Dope music, especially when clearly audible here ^^
This ost sounds creepy and dangarous from the start and then so god damn powerfull and intense after. Really fits the mood of the color of madness arenas.
I'm experiencing one of those rare times where I like a video's comments section. I had a feeling people would be cracking mitochondria jokes, and I was not disappointed.

Mitochondria...the powerhouse of this hell.
There can be no powerhouse in this cell. No powerhouse at all.

Half a decade on, this pun still lives rent-free in my head...

I second this comment. Happy Birthday Mr. Chatwood, and best of wishes to you!

One of my favorite tracks from the OST
My god I’m still in awe that this game was done with kickstarter it’s an absolute masterpiece
Almost everyone on staff has worked on AAA titles, so we knew it would be good. Wayne's narration and Chris' artwork is top notch!

Just the way the song starts and continues to sound sinister is so damn brilliant.

Mitochondria, the powerhouse of the cell... and this comment section.
- Wayne June, probably
I think this track is one of the best in the game. These alien sounds very well create the image of the Comet as an eldtritch nightmare that distorts space and time.
My only regret is that I did not live to see that *mitochondria powering the cell* by the miraculous bounty I reaped from beyond the *nucleus* ."
Here I was, minding my own business harvesting cristals, when all of the sudden: THE SLEEPER AWAKENS
I still stand by the opinion of Darkest Dungeon having one of the greatest soundtracks of all time.
Can I quote you on that...?
Thanks for the kind words.
Is that a VA-11 HALL-A profile picture I see?
might be
Stuart Chatwood you can quote me on it!
From now on Stuart Gigachatwood
That's a new one. Lately it's been "Chad-wood"
1:24 What a masterpiece
This video inspired me to begin new campaign in DD
I hate u Stuart
and love
It is impossible not to love this
The best one in the entire DLC, finally here, i really love your songs
The powerhouse of the comet...
no... NOOOOO !
the mitochondria gives the "there's power in the blood" a whole new meaning
I love the crawling synth, the song itself feels overgrown somehow. Each of these tracks, the synth just shows that even the already present horrors of this estate are being warped by the comet.
Absolute genius creates steller music for absolute madmen...
*The powerhouse of the cell.*
*the DARK powerhouse
Vultiidsah The Memelord The *DARKEST* powerhouse!
This track is so good! Can't pick a favorite song in the Color of Madness DLC because they're all great!
The world needs more of your music.
1:37 just hit me too hard... amazing job!
This must be what unbereable anxiety feels like portrayed in a song, just like the boss fight. Beautifull
Another masterpiece. This game has so many good songs. Town in Chaos is in my top 5 best videogame ost list, the others being "Confrontation at the mechanical tower" and "At war with Kaileena" from Warrior Within, the Morrowind theme , and "Aleroth Healers House" from Divinity Original Sin. It is really interesting that you composed 3 of the songs in my top 5 list.
Pepe Edge Right? When I first started the PoP games I kept wondering who made the sick soundtrack. Boom, Stuart.
I just recently played through this DLC and I cannot describe how your music was an absolute cornerstone to what I played, experienced, and lastly, enjoyed. Thank you so much.
Thanks for your feedback. I love hearing that people are enjoying the music.
Omg! Finally! Maestro Chatwood! Greetings from Italy. Love your works! 🇮🇹❤️😁

Edit: also, can’t wait for “The Chloroplast of Cosmarium”
This is insanely well done. Thank you Mr. Chatwood!
"LOST IN TIME AND SPACE"

I'm reading Lovecraft to Chatwood's music... That's goddamn epic!
Nice choice!

Thanks for listening.
Might be actually my favourite track you've made for this game, the electronic sounding kick and bass just has a feel like no other
Something similiar could fit for final quest of "Black Reliquary" of The Black Reliquary. Well we will see what ur gonna cook up.
It's finally here. Stunning work as always Stuart!

More music coming soon...
