Dmitri, it's a reference to HALO 3 ODST, which has a love/hate relationship with the Halo community, and is known for breaking from the typical soundtrack that other Halo games have, which in this case, is popular elements of Jazz, especially the use of sad, calm melodies and excessive use of a beautiful saxophone.
I love how unlike some artists, you dont seem to recycle the same clips to get the same sounds e.g. the tambourine shaking. It was hilarious to see how you shook it in different enthusiastic ways. It makes your work seem real genuine and smooth.
Yeah, I just let the camera roll and I record the length of the entire video! It's honestly easier to do that then edit the clips so I repeat a single clip :p
Interesting, most people tend to feel that my music is shorter than it actually is. Like, they'll listen to a 6 minute song and say "where did my 6 minutes go?"
Here you arrive at the final boss of DS Thinking of a little bit of push needed to finish the game While accompanying by this kind of depression mood of song showing how struggle the world is That's feeling
As soon as I saw the title of the video I could imagine in my head a nice, cool jazz arrangement for that tune. It worked very well, as I thought! Nice cover, this tune really sounds good in a jazz arrangement. Great job man.
Nice cover, Carlos, changing it up a bit. I really enjoyed the whole atmosphere of the song, keep it up! I know I've suggested this a million times, but ya gotta do smiles and tears from earthbound!
I oddly see this playing at a bar with a stage late at night with various bosses and enemies from the the different dark souls games at the tables sitting listening to this.
Just discovered this through Apple Music. Amazing cover. Hell, all of the stuff I've heard on there from you has been incredible. Keep up the good work!
I discovered your Channel this weekend and OMG what a brilliant idea and executed with style. This video is a perfect example of your talents and how your arrangements work. All the best and Please more Dark Souls. Sifs theme if possible
*You walk in the bar, alas your date awaits you,* *Gwyn looks you straight in the eye.* *His gaze meets your own...* the rest of the night is spent gwyn trying to acquire your lordvessel which results in gwyn getting frustrated when he tries to get past your ornstein and smough duo.
Just wanna say ive never played dark souls at all but i just heard this once, idk if i was scrollinf through uour spotify or was on shuffle but this shit was so good man. This is a song im going to listen to for the rest of my life
I'd just like to say thank you. Found your channel today, was feeling bad and panicky earlier. Your music helped me find my balance again. Subscribed, and will definitely come back for more.
Carlos!!! This appealed to me in every way! I absolutely looooved those swells you did and how you really come right down and build everything. You were soooo into your playing on this one and you ROCK that tambourine/shaker combo!!
Oh I was not expecting this. I picked up the Dark Souls games over the steam summer sale and this is getting me pretty hype to play them! Thanks again for another beautiful cover! (I love your continued use of that guitar)
I was just thinking, it would be really neat to see you do a cover of the Hearthstone League of Explorers theme, but it's more of a march/fanfare style theme. I'm going to request it otherwise because it'd be neat.
Loved it, great as always
ay that's pretty good
Nice to see you hear pineapple
I LUAVE U PEENYN APLLE
u dead pineapple?
Can't be hollow with this much soul...
DARK soul? :D
You could say it's..

Dark Souls: ODST
This is the most underrated comment I've seen in a long time.
Alex L E G E N D A R Y
Underrated, like Halo 3: ODST.
I don't get it.

*drinks coffee with Gwyn*
what an awkward coffee date

This is perfect, hope you don't mind me using it for a little piece in a new video - full credit of course!
Go ahead!
Indeimaus you wasted this masterpiece on a video about trees...
lmao
Indeimaus this is late and all, but I hope those trees burnt to cinder after you used this masterpiece
@Trey Beninger they just turned into curse rotted greatwood kek

This was perfect
Man, this doesn't make me want to fight Gwyn. This makes me want to smoke a blunt with him and chill
Shoutouts to the Grizzly Guernsey Gamer, Wolfbear, and Oscar Salman Prim for suggesting this cool tune to me :)
Where can I send a request? I have a certain Kirby tune I'd want you to do...
Check it in the video description where it says "Got a Song Request?"
All requested! c:
When I saw it in my subscription box everything else went on hold XD
Jazzy Dark Souls: No more bosses... only bossa.
I feelin....Dark Souls in a Noir setting.
Noir souls... i guesss.

Detective Undead and The Case of The Missing Fire!

I got mesmerized and thought this song was longer than 6 minutes... those are some smooth jams.
Interesting, most people tend to feel that my music is shorter than it actually is. Like, they'll listen to a 6 minute song and say "where did my 6 minutes go?"
I had no idea you covered this!
Easily one of the best final boss themes of all time and your cover more than did it justice.
It'd be much harder to rage quit when grooving to some Darklos
Here you arrive at the final boss of DS
Thinking of a little bit of push needed to finish the game
While accompanying by this kind of depression mood of song showing how struggle the world is
That's feeling
Jazz Souls: Prepare to Chill edition.
Dark Souls: Prepare to Jive Edition
Gwyn, Lord of SMOOTH JAZZ
Barman: hello good man what you wanna drink?
Lord Gwyn: A Sunburned please

dang, I've never even played snark snails
Snark snouls
thanks dude I left this one in the oven for a little longer than usual
This was so on fire that it relinked the First Flame hotter than Lord Gwyn ever did.
Ah the memories... (Vietnam Dark Souls flashback) AH GAD THE MEMORIES. PLEASE NOT MY SOULS.
you went too far with the memories.... there there... It will be over soon...
I've been listening to your stuff for years and years and I'm just now finding out you covered one of my favorite songs ever years ago???
was just scrolling through your videos and i did not expect to see this, amazing
I have this on my Spotify and play DS1~3 24/7 to this
I'm hearing this cover while spamming parry.
gwyn and the knights chillin at a bar in the kiln
Been listening to this song song it’s upload date and will keep listening as long as I can. Truly a masterpiece.
Who would win? A grown man who knows he shouldn't get emotional over video games
Or
Plink plink plunk
I usually don't like covers of this song, but you nailed it.
Thanks a ton!
Amazing as always!
PS. Did you remember to parry though?
OH man...this song already makes me feel. Now you are gonna make me feel more.
Sweet bliss w/ a touch of DARK
I am listening to this music while hiding behind a pill- er I mean Parry spamming.
As soon as I saw the title of the video I could imagine in my head a nice, cool jazz arrangement for that tune. It worked very well, as I thought! Nice cover, this tune really sounds good in a jazz arrangement. Great job man.
Thanks so much!

Literally JUST got into Dark Souls 1, played 20 hours non stop, so exciting to find this in my sub feed
Great timing dude, hope you enjoyed listening to this :D
You cannot parry the nostalgia
i like my coffee and jazz as my humanities, smooth and black
My little brother and I are playing DS for the first time. I'm hyped for this fight.
Man seriously why doesn't this channel have more subscribers? This is really high quality! Awesome job.
Subs will come with time! In the mean time, share this with your friends :D
You could say its the darksoul of jazz
OMG darksouls jazz I'm drooling
This is the best thing I’ve ever listened to
Whey! Suggested this one a while back on the request page =D
Thanks a lot for suggesting it dude! I might never have checked this song out if it wasn't suggested!
I would kill for a galaxy space logo t-shirt. buying one as soon as I can!
Oooh, both bone-chilling and relaxing!
Never expected to see anything Dark Souls related covered by you. Good job!
Me neither, to be honest. It's times like these that I'm glad the request sheet exists, haha!
Gwyn, Lord of jazz
I oddly see this playing at a bar with a stage late at night with various bosses and enemies from the the different dark souls games at the tables sitting listening to this.
Faces during the shakes made this amazing cover even better. Great take on such a nice piece.
I knew people would enjoy seeing that, haha
Just discovered this through Apple Music. Amazing cover. Hell, all of the stuff I've heard on there from you has been incredible. Keep up the good work!
Thanks so much for listening to my stuff man :D
This is pure awesomeness. Congrats, and greetings from Brazil!
I'll bet this was the most difficult one for him to play. The Dark Souls of his musical arrangements.
Love the sax flourish after the main chord progression. The call and respond. Also it ended on an unexpected high note I love it
This is by far my favorite cover of this song
I'm glad you think that :)
Kindle that smooth jazz bonfire.
This cover is lit. Your music is absolute fire man, I dunno how you got it to be this hot. Keep blazing on dude.
Thanks dude, gonna keep blazin for as long as I can

You cannot parry those tears...
This was fucking beautiful. Two of my favorite things put into one. Jazz and Dark Souls! Fantastic job man!
Yes! Take all of my yes's! One of my favorite tracks from Dark Souls 1.
Love it. Great editing to signify the somber atmosphere as well :)
Thank you! I worked on the editing quite a bit in this cover :)
Just wanna say ive never played dark souls at all but i just heard this once, idk if i was scrollinf through uour spotify or was on shuffle but this shit was so good man. This is a song im going to listen to for the rest of my life
I'd just like to say thank you. Found your channel today, was feeling bad and panicky earlier. Your music helped me find my balance again. Subscribed, and will definitely come back for more.
That's awesome to hear dude, glad I could help :D
That description box is brilliant! :)
My favorite game ever getting an awesome cover. Thank you.
Yayyy thank you so much :D
Accurate description.
Absolutely brilliant.
Very interesting choice for a jazz arrangement. But you made it work incredibly well, as usual. Awesome work! :D
I wasn't really sure as to how I'd get this one arrangement, but it did work in the end!
Oh man, I missed this! I like how ambient the beginning is, slowly building up. I haven't played any Dark Souls games, but this is not bad at all!
Glad you liked it man!
As always, you hit it right out of the park! I need to play DS1 again now XD
Dude, your version gave me goosebumps
Relajante.
Te quedó muy bien, ¡Excelente!
I see a lot of people complaining about how they like the original better, but I've never played dark souls, so.. I love it :)
i love that you incorporating stacks in your solos, they sound great!
Stacks?
Like triads?
Too good man. Tin Chord of Littner ;) Really amazing to listen to.
This is the last thing I would have expected. Amazing job with this!
Beautifully done! One of my favorite songs from the series!
damn this is good. now I just really wanna hear a version of the abyss watchers theme from DS3
That song has been suggested a lot for me, might just have to do it then!
insaneintherainmusic ayyyyy nice I'll certainly be looking forward to that :D
i can just imagin gwyn goignt o a bar and getting a shot glass but set's it on fire to show off XD
LOL and then all the attendants just have to parry parry parry
all while drinking his shot that he set the alchole on fire to
Didn't see this one coming. Glad about it.
I never thought I'd do a Dark Souls tune. Glad you liked it too!
This is one of my favorite renditions of this song.
Looking forward to hearing your originals, like the Wizards of the Coast one you did in February.
This is so amazing. It gives me my humanity back.
Thanks for listening
love the breakdown!!
Wow I can see Gwyn drinking whiskey and dancing around the fire
love the atmosphere!
May the sun forever shine!
Stunning arrangement.
Thank you so much!
beautiful beautiful mix!
Wow this might be my favorite video/song from you so far!
Thank you so much
Carlos!!! This appealed to me in every way! I absolutely looooved those swells you did and how you really come right down and build everything. You were soooo into your playing on this one and you ROCK that tambourine/shaker combo!!
This is very good. Awsome job.
Oh I was not expecting this. I picked up the Dark Souls games over the steam summer sale and this is getting me pretty hype to play them! Thanks again for another beautiful cover! (I love your continued use of that guitar)
I was just thinking, it would be really neat to see you do a cover of the Hearthstone League of Explorers theme, but it's more of a march/fanfare style theme. I'm going to request it otherwise because it'd be neat.
Thanks man! Yeah, definitely trying to incorporate the guitar into some more stuff. Chords on guitar are haaard for me :/
