If you've missed the Hollow Knight OST playlist, here they are back: *FULL HK + DLC:* th-cam.com/video/243Uguc-6mQ/w-d-xo.html *FULL HK:* th-cam.com/video/243Uguc-6mQ/w-d-xo.html
_"And over here as we pan the camera to the left, we see this giant mushroom creature ambushing its prey. The creature uses its flexible body to swing itself repeatedly and violently to squash whatever adversary near it like a pancake before disposing of it by eating what is left."_
_”This creature is known as an Shrumal Warrior. The Shrumal Warrior looks like a mushroom but if you come too close, it’s game over. Surprisingly, the Shrumal Warrior releases a odor, known to nearly kill vessels or humans. This phenomenon happens because the Warrior wishes to protect their young. The odor also follows the Warrior. As we see the vessel and the Warrior fighting, let’s take a closer look. The Warrior uses a defense mechanism to ball up and hop over their enemies. This move is commonly used to fake out predators. The creature uses its stem-like body to swing up into a ball and hop over its enemies.”_
I remember first getting here. Everything felt so dangerous and odd, I was paranoid of a boss in every room, and I felt like THIS was probably the deep part of the map. Good times.
Good old days. I went in here not expecting to enter an new realm. I had discovered crystal peak before this and died continuously. I thought "Oh shit not again." Saw a balloon elephant and noped out of there, thinking it was a super strong enemy I would definitely die to 😂
Man, it feels good seeing these mantises bow down to you after making your life hell everytime you had to get through them to challenge their lords yet again.
I love the suspicous, quirky, and misterous vibe this theme gives, especialy with the lead melody which has many parts with semitone resonence (going from one note to another 1 semitone away from it) which kinda fits the quirky nature of fungi, as they're essentialy a plant-animal hybrid
I JUST NOTICED THAT FUNGAL WASTES USES A HARPSICHORD IN THE BACKGROUND AND ONE OF THE MANTIS LORDS THEME'S PRIMARY INSTRUMENTS IS THE HARPSICHORD!! THE SONGS ARE GIVING THE CONNECTION BECAUSE THE MANTISES ARE IN THE FUNGAL WASTES THATS SO COOL!! CHRISTOPHER LARKIN YOU ABSOLUTELY GENIUS MADLAD!!!!!
More brilliance: you can hear the plucked strings playing a variation on the Hollow Knight leitmotif at 0:12. Not sure if that's referencing anything lore-wise, but it was years before I heard it lol
*I like how one minute you’re into a place that’s pretty melancholic (Fungal Waste)! the next you’re in an area with dead bugs and bugs that wanna kill you with the one of the FKING CREEPIEST THEMES EVER!!! (DeepNest)!*
@@GetHypedandShocked I did that too. Beat Mantis Lords super early, went into deepnest for 5 minutes, decided not to do that again and got the map from iselda
i like how the plucked strings are more playful and match the general area while the long synths are more majestic and match the mantis village. cool how much a song can change with a few instruments
Most underrated area in the game. The main reason I say that is simply because I haven’t ever seen someone pick it as their favorite area. I love the visuals, the “neutral” vibe of the soundtrack, the size of the area, and of course the grasshoppers and their village + boss fight. Idk, something about the Fungal Wastes feels unappreciated.
my favorite part about this theme is the faint harpsichord you can hear in mantis territory. it's such a nice detail, especially with how harpsichord-heavy the mantis lords theme is
Trying to set up context for each hollow knight song in this playlist before the song ends: As if greenpath hadn’t felt alive enough, this place felt like a living organism that liked to keep to itself. The ground you tred on releases spores with every step, as if warning SOMETHING of your presence. You’re not sure you want to know what that something may be. Or perhaps you’ll emerge unscathed, and even stronger for it. The spores glow like little lights as you walk on.
I guarantee you that if you leave your speakers on and loop this song as you sleep, I promise you the shroom effect will impact your dreams. Certainly did me, try it :)
This track strikes me as incredibly correct for the area. It's just...right. That's part of what this game does so well with its music, it's very good at getting the mood perfectly spot on
The air filled with an acidic fungal fume, the mushrooms acting as though alive Best be careful not to fall to your doom, as through this place lies your greatest prize
It's a bassoon. Woodwind instrument used in orchestras since the XVI century, and in HK it appears in other tracks as well (actually rn I can only think Greenpath, but maybe it plays in others) but not as prominently as here in Fungal Wastes. For some reason it does sound very "mushroom-y" so it makes sense it's mostly used in here. :)
There is no other location in hollownest that is both my absolute favorite location and my absolute least favorite location. The Mantis village is straight up one of if not my favorite place in all of hollownest. The normal mantises are fun to fight, it holds two of my favorite charms mark of pride and dashmaster, and the mantis lords are probably my favorite boss (sisters of battle included) But then- we have the actual mushroom part of fungal wastes and I have never had a good experience with it. From the large amount of acid pools when I don’t have the tear, to the double damage jackass mushrooms that are always just out of range, it’s all so annoying.
Hello there I'm back! Again feel free to correct me when I'm wrong. Looking really forward to guess the time signatures of the remaining soundtracks in this playlist. from 0:00 till the end: 4/4 time signature
I just discovered something weird about this music. I'm listening to this with earphones with a high volume. If you listen closely, you can hear a weird sound/voice but it is really quiet. This sound appears at that repeating melodie (example 0:04 ) with every note in this melodie the more quiet this sound gets. Now this sound or voice is like a mushroom saying gomp or smth... let me now if you also heard that. Oh and for you to know which melodie it is, it's the one with 4 repeating notes.
The melody sounds extremely familiar. It sounds like the first few notes of ballad of the goddess from Skyward sword: th-cam.com/video/Cdz8bhOFo0s/w-d-xo.html Just me?

Must be Mandela effect.

Me too
I just started playing the game, and I am honestly in shock every time i keep going deeper and deeper
it’s missing the mushroom saying WWOOWW
_W O W_
Wah
Woooooah
Waaaaaaa...
Wwhoohww
Ffffff
owen wilshroom
Man, it feels good seeing these mantises bow down to you after making your life hell everytime you had to get through them to challenge their lords yet again.
fsr I just feel so respecting back towards them as well like I just bow back every time
Just the idea that we have this understanding between us idk
I killed each one of them while they were bowing
it’s the small touches in this game that make it special 😀
this song sounds minimalistic
just like the shrooms

Fun fact, fungi are actually more closely related to animals than plants.
Its quite, sus.
@@Horny_Fruit_Flies I am a aware. But i was just saying how they're not quitte plant or animal. Thanks for the notice though!
@@oreo_smoothie74that's cause they're fungi
2:17 -2:37
This 20 second always give me a weird feeling to start thinking of the life
Thinking of the life?
@@m0bz0mb38 his life i think
I think its because of this wonderful violin tune in those 20 second
@@m0bz0mb38 this comment makes you really wanna think about the life
This parts giving me hard skyward sword vibes. A lot of this OST does
That sting of the main theme at 0:12 kind of gives this particular song a "the protagonist is thinking" vibe. ^^

@@bl00dy-ca76 You just left Cornifer down there alone!?
@@GetHypedandShocked I did that too. Beat Mantis Lords super early, went into deepnest for 5 minutes, decided not to do that again and got the map from iselda
I can LITERALLY hear all of the annoying creatures chirping and scurrying around as I listen to this.
Like that one mushroom that does somersaults.
Literally? Go to a doctor then 😂

This song has been stuck in my head for the past few days and I don’t know why. I haven’t even been to fungal wastes in months :/

Christopher Larkin is such a genius that he created a song that actually sounds like mushrooms.

When you wake up you are able to understand mister mushroom without the charm
Wish that would work for me. I’m sick of having Genshin Impact dreams every night
wait you guys can dream?
@@littlecock118 Ah, empty one, GET DREAMNAILED
Idk what you guys are talking about,i just saw a weird yellow light
Mushy room! I love this song!
Wah
WAAAH
WAAAAaaaoooohh....
Wah
WAH
oooh look at the little baby: wah
now look at the big baby: WAHH
Waluigi was so mad about not getting into smash bros ultimate that he became a mushroom.
2:14 sounds so epic
0:12 it took me way too long to notice that this was the hollow knight motif. It just blends so well with the rest of the track.
This track strikes me as incredibly correct for the area. It's just...right. That's part of what this game does so well with its music, it's very good at getting the mood perfectly spot on

The part starting at 2:17 gives me existential thoughts idk why
i was searching for a reply that commented about this part, the reverb def makes it sound otherworldy.
2:13 stranger danger 3: No longer a danger, just a relaxing fungal waste
Oh man this is so good
I love the little mushroom dudes. lmfao
When you are escaping from an extremely tight place and suddenly you hear this track
I heard this so much challenging mantis lords, epic ost though
Ah! The ptsd
@@Barondelculo its the skill spike tbh
Waluigi is a mushroom. He says wah and so do the mushrooms. He’s also from the mushroom kingdom …..yeah
the atmosfere is just cool here
every single time i hear this song i am obligated to make the fungoon noise
ooOOOoo
Inspired me to pick up my bassoon after 4 years. Cheers :)
BoInGgG! WOoowwWW! uGGhH! _scitterscitterscitter_
All sorts of camouflaged insects glimpsing at each other while in a secretly very busy mosspad.
I love humming along to the part at 2:05 in game. Such a great resolution.
Makes it feel like there is a mushroom bobbing up and down at the woodblock
AHHHGG I LOVE MUSHROOM THEMED AREAS IN GAMES!! I LOVE DENSE FORESTS AND CAVERNS CHOKED WITH ANCIENT MYCELIAL LIFE RAAAHHH!!
2:12 The Fungal Wastes giving way to the Mantis Village is such a clean transition
I love this track reminds me a little of bowsers inside story
I remember when I got to Mantis Village at like 6 masks and then subsequently died to 3 Young Mantises chasing me to death
I always thought this one sounded like an animal documentary
Home of the Waluigi mushrooms!
This has been my alarm wake up tune for a few years now. It's perfect to wake up.
This song puts me in a silly mood
i love the "bum bum bum bum bum bum" at the start of the song
Мой любимый биом
1:25 I have no clue what the instrument played here is, but its absolutely gorgeous and I want to know what it is
It's a bassoon. Woodwind instrument used in orchestras since the XVI century, and in HK it appears in other tracks as well (actually rn I can only think Greenpath, but maybe it plays in others) but not as prominently as here in Fungal Wastes. For some reason it does sound very "mushroom-y" so it makes sense it's mostly used in here. :)
I think it's the basoon
I felt like i was a spy
everyday mood
this beat sounds like its gonna play in the background while David Attenborough talks about the wonders of wildlife
Favorite reigon ❤
There is no other location in hollownest that is both my absolute favorite location and my absolute least favorite location.
The Mantis village is straight up one of if not my favorite place in all of hollownest. The normal mantises are fun to fight, it holds two of my favorite charms mark of pride and dashmaster, and the mantis lords are probably my favorite boss (sisters of battle included)

David Attenborough doing a documentary on mantis would work well with this.
I can already hear the voice
I don’t know why I know this song so much I don’t ever go to fungal wastes
Whook whaak whook whaak whook whaak whook whaak whook whaak
One of my classmates was a Hollow Knight fan and in class, (they) showed us and I liked it ❤
Música perfeita para o bioma dos fungos eu gosto demais de ouvir ela
music to listen to when you're in a mushroom biome.
those small running shrooms are so funny
Hello there I'm back! Again feel free to correct me when I'm wrong.
Looking really forward to guess the time signatures of the remaining soundtracks in this playlist.

Waaah!!!!
Waah! Wauhh! Wawawawah...
Leg eater sounds and looks so cute even though he's a lil bastard. Still I can't help but like him.

Why do I feel like I'm playing Cut the Rope?
the mantis village version is my favorite ambience song in game
Here it goes my PB speedrun
Y’know, I’m reminded of Kevin Macleod
Leg Eater is a total G.
Reminds me of a documentary about small animals or ants lmao
FYI, Christopher Larkin is the composer. Also, composing the next game in the Hallow knight series, Silksong....it's going to be an absolute treat!
This was for me, the point where the game started to get difficult.
WAAAAA! - Spinny Mushroom
the funny mushroom.
Why do the explosions do 2 damage?! WHY?!
somehow, this gives me goat simulator nostalgia. /pos
they did so good cause this sound like a mushroom
Idk what to say. You're just correct.
This sound I feel like it's like some soundtrack in Inuyasha anime, so nostalgic 🥲
It's scary music when you don't play
1:52
Sounds like some OG Age of Empire 1 OST

It doesn’t work without the mushroom enemies
guys is there any hope for Silksong comming out this or at least next year?
Really this es more rare song
The opening bit sounds strangely similar to Eleanor rigby.

So goofy
I swear i heard this somewhere but not from hollow knight
