Wow, those improves are good. Didn't know you wasn't having so good your first video about tricks with mind, Toby Fox doing through music as well as in other directions. Well, nothing comes out very good on first try, like first video about music of Toby Fox musical themes connections. It's great, that some music themes are added though.
I thinked King and Jevil are connected somehow through something in their musical theme, I thinked it was The Legend music theme, which is present with 1st one. This connection you have found proves the link, the link with Gaster, but also means that not each one of them must have The Legend leitmotif.
My theory (ok Matpat's theory, but I have a little extra evidence to add on to it) is that Gaster was trying to develop a world where monsters never got banished to the underground, (I added this part) he is in complete control over it, which is why his theme appears everywhere, and why your choices don't matter. Also it says he fell into his creation, maybe he fell into a portal to the deltarune world, which cause parts of him to exist everywhere, because you aren't supposed to exist in multiple universes at once.
He is definetely helping you create a character in the beginning,its all capitals like his wingdings.the person who removes ur character is somebody else
Shamima Akter Many speculate that other person is Chara. While the text isn’t red, they both have similar “styles” in their speech as well as their focus on existentialism. Or perhaps, if that ever so prominent sprite really is Gaster (or some extension of him), the other person speaking is the second face in that sprite? There IS a second face there. The sprite’s hands are the eyes. I’d go with the first option imo, as both characters seem to have some influence on the game and both seem to “cancel each other out.” By that I mean that you cannot kill everyone in Deltarune, but you cannot get everyone onto your side either.
Confirmation bias. Basically, you are biased towards evidence that confirms your theory. Its also a bit like how you can hear the audio more clearly when you have subtitles on because your brain is specifically looking for words that sound like what you are expecting.
I love the fact that Gaster's theme is so easy to insert EVERYWHERE because of its simplicity, it really shows how shattered across time and space he really is, because he's all over the place.
Something interesting I noticed is that Gaster’s theme, the Twilight Zone theme, and Lavender town theme are all composed basically the same: They are zig zag lines. Gaster: Low Mid High Mid Twilight Zone: Mid High Mid Low Lavender town: Low Mid High Mid Apparently zig zag lines are creepy
You can make your own creepy music with a quick trick. Picking any diminished seventh chord and arpeggiating it makes for a spooky creepo sound. I think it’s because the chord is non-committal to being major or minor which puts it in some sort of auditory uncanny valley! And then you add in some tritones and before you know it you got your very own spooky lavender town-esque creep-jam.
I'm gonna just leave my opinion here, I'm no expert on any of this: Even though Gaster's theme has only three unique notes, the distance between the notes is important. The first and second notes are right next to each other, while the second and third are more than half an octave apart. _A list of the songs in this video, ordered by how convinced I am, from most to least:_ *Another Him* - The game's entire intro is Gaster themed. The song is basically identical, just with a new rhythm. *Darkness Falls* - The first measure of each phrase is the original theme, with the rest of the phrases being an extension. Seems like a logical way to make a song out of Gaster's theme. ^ (both of the above songs are also played on echo-bathed pianos, like the original) ^ *Scarlet Forest & The World Revolving* - The accent is on the high note instead of the low, but it's still the same theme with similar relative intervals between the notes. Also, both of these areas have something that's at least supposed to make us think of Gaster, those being Mr. Egg and the strange man with a "darker, yet darker" worldview who met with Jevil. *The Circus* - I'm a little less convinced with the song itself, but I'm pretty sure about it being in Jevil's other theme so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ *Friendship* - I really don't see a reason for this song to have Gaster's theme but the intervals are correct between all of the notes so I'm not against it. *April 2012* - The chords definitely sound the same, but if the song was actually written in April of 2012 it seems like a coincidence to me. Still pretty interesting. *Card Castle* - I think this is just a standard, non-Gaster-related bass arpeggio. Those were pretty common in NES music (since full chords would talk all of the NES's sound channels), which I'm pretty sure this song is styled after. Some sections do sound kinda similar in way of intervals, but not enough for me to be convinced. *Rouxls Kaard* - Again, pretty sure this is just a standard arpeggio. No Gasting here. *THE HOLY* - Yea, it's another arpeggio, but this one isn't even going in the right direction. the chords don't sound all that similar either. *Chaos King* - I'm not really sure which part you're saying is Gaster. The guitar? Anyway, I just don't hear it. So, that's my opinion. Again, I'm no expert on this, I just think conversation and debate is fun. sry for long comment.
I agree. Most of these "Gaster's Theme Sightings" are just simple arpeggios unrelated to Gaster's theme. When they hear 4 notes going low middle high middle, they immediately say "gAsTeR's ThEmE!!1."
I agree, although I actually hear more of the theme in "The Circus" than I do in "THE WORLD REVOLVING." Also, I was surprised this video didn't include the Man Behind the Tree song. I guess it isn't part of the main soundtrack, but then again, Gaster's theme isn't part of Undertale's main soundtrack. But yeah, "Another Him" is definitely intentional, right down to the name (Gaster's theme's file is "mus_st_him"). "Darkness Falls" sounds pretty intentional, too, and I wouldn't put it past Toby to reference Gaster in either of Jevil's themes, due to Jevil's connection to Gaster. Chances are you're right about "Scarlet Forest" as well. It seemed like in this video, the appearances of Lancer's theme in both "Chaos King" and "Card Castle" were confused for the Gaster theme.
I think "Darkness Falls" and "Another Him" are the most likely candidates for being purposeful Gaster leitmotifs, which also might hint that there'll be much more Gaster related stuff in Deltarune I'm pretty excited ngl
Perhaps "Another Him" means it's another Gaster, not the same Gaster that was in Undertale, just as all the other characters (excluding Sans). Instead of some timey-wimey thing happening to him causing him to split into pieces around the universe, he is a different, more god-like figure which births beings to the world of Deltarune somehow? Or maybe, "Another Him" refers to you creating a goner (gaster follower, they are perhaps monsters or humans, even, that have been infused with a piece of the same Gaster from Undertale), since apparently in the code of the game, this whole creation scene is called "Goner Maker".
Adding to this, deltarune is an alternate universe/timeline of undertale. All the characters are the same old characters you knew just with a tiny bit of changes, like how ralsei is an anagram of asriel. So this could also apply to gaster. Since we’re in an entirely different universe and the core was never built, gaster still could exist. Since there wasn’t any core to fall into, gaster couldn’t be shattered across time and space.
Armantale likewise, the clam that shows up with a certain FUN value tells you about Susie. In the switch version there’s also a chance that they’ll do a think where they’ll look like one of gaster’s followers.
Yes, but it's Toby we're talking about, a smart sly and lazy dog. Most of the music in Undertale are composed of other ones: example, Spider Dance being basically another version of Ghost fight and Dummy, the bells of Finale being his theme, part of Asgore is Heartache, and etc... This is *definitely* intentional.
In Gaster's Theme, as you know, there are 4 notes played 4 times and another 4 notes played 4 times, repeating. The first notes are "A - B♭ - F - B♭", or a "3 - 4 - 8 - 4" pattern on the F Major scale. The second notes are "A♭ - A - E - A", or the "3 - 4 - 8 - 4" pattern on the E Major scale. Therefore, Gaster's leitmotif should be considered this progression of notes within a chord.
I feel like Gaster is gonna get an Actual Role in the game instead of kinda being a background character. I'm excited to see what Toby has in store for us for Chapter 2. edit: hi yes i posted this comment 2 years ago during my cringy middle school days stop liking it
Yeah. Gaster's Theme wasn't heard in ANY other song in Undertale, but was heard in at least ANOTHER HIM and Darkness Falls here. Also, between the strange game-aware man who made Jevil go insane, and Seam referencing Entry Number 17, I'm pretty sure it's not unintentional.
@@TwilightFlower9 I'm pretty sure Gaster's Theme is buried somewhere in Song that might play when you fight Sans. Papyrus has his theme in there, so it wouldn't surprise me.
I just find it interesting that every song on this list id from the dark world. And, I think the ones with Jevil, The King, and Rouxls are intentional, cause they were all affected by the Knight.
I know that this is a year old, but when was Jevil or Rouxls affected by the knight? I mean Jevil knows about the Knight (and some sort of Queen), but his and Seams dialogue seemed like Gaster and the Knight were different entitys as Seam could of said that Jevil met the Knight and not "a strange someone".
@@joutakujo9773 Unfortunately I can't answer cause I don't remember- XD Kinda fell outa DeltaRune here XD But Ill look back into it and let you know- XD
@@joutakujo9773 Its chill my guy XD Its always fun to return to old comments I completely forgot I made- XD Also- if Im not wrong, the Rouxls being affected by the Knight MIGHT be because of a fan comic- cause that's the only thing coming to mind. But, I have belief my younger self wouldn't have gotten that confused XD
I feel like Gaster's theme is only a part of his true theme, and when or if he appears in deltarune, physically and not just disembodied text, the arpeggio we all know will be part of a full song.
I feel like Darkness Falls might be a version of that, honestly. Plus, I find it interesting that Darkness Falls has the game over song as part of it, considering the game over theme of Undertale turned out to be a part of Asgore's theme. Certainly makes one wonder, doesn't it?
For the majority (or all) of these I don't believe these are coincidences because of the popular theory that Gaster created the Deltarune world it makes sense why there's so many motifs of the mystery man himself's theme.
Gaster? Hmm... Doesn't ring a bell... Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahhahahhahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahwhahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaglitchhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahaha... Ha... HA!
most compelling evidence to me is the fact that in game code, the intro "vessel creator" types with a typer value of 666, which is the same one as journal 17 in Undertale (which is in wingdings and one of the most obvious gaster things available)
Honestly. I think every single one of these was intentional. Producing music all by yourself means you're laser-focused on every aspect of the sound as you've likely listened to every track isolated multiple times. It's highly unlikely Toby put a bunch of these in without realising. Especially since Toby is such a motif-focused composer. The entirety of the Undertale soundtrack intentionally lacks the Gaster Theme motif apart from Dating Start!. I think Toby makes accidents with coding and art, but VERY rarely with music.
This. If Toby was so careless as to place the Gaster leitmotif in so much music in Deltarune unintentionally, you'd think it would've also happened in Undertale, but it doesn't.
The OG Gaster video has remained to be one of my favorites largely because Gaster is such a mysterious, fascinating character. Dude this was A HUGE step up. The comparisons sound so much clearer. Awesome job.
Thanks for pointing it out. If I'm honest, towards the end of making this video I started losing motivation so I think there's quite a few mistakes in the video.
I like how it’s the same variation of Gaster’s theme. It’s almost never outright “Gaster’s Theme”, but the last note is always shifted higher in the second repetition. Maybe that’s just me, though.
2015: Gaster is scattered across time and space 2018: Gaster is scattered across Deltarune. EDIT - I agree with the description as I think in fact "Another Him" and "Darkness Falls" are the only ones which distinctively have the leitmotifs, for the other song there's a bit of a stretch. Thanks for the video anyway, it was awesome!
Eventhough some choices are debatable, I think that would be on toby, since Gaster got such a "simple" theme and his presence in DR is so heavily hinted at.
Something else: The file name for Gaster's Theme is mus_soundtest_him.ogg, which means that the name of Another Him is based off of this, which, in addition to the fact that Another Him is clearly based off of Gaster's Theme, means that Another Him is meant to belong to Gaster, as another theme of his, which is turn means that the person who's talking to you at the beginning of the game is Gaster.
i feel like some of these are just coincidence but the ones im certain are on purpose are another him, darkness falls, and maybe the circus and the word revolving
after the whole spamton thing and the guy saying "i picked up the phone and couldnt hear anything but garbage noise" only to later you use your phone and hear the gaster speaking from undertale and it saying "its nothing but garbage noise" i became fully convinced gaster was a major plot point in this game plus a lot of important characters deliberatedly resembling him
it could be just toby fox fucking with the community but after gaster apparently making spamton become crazy aswell jevil both having themes of freedom or becoming free it leads me to think he is behind the entirety of deltarune
You know, using a simple up-and-down melody as a character's leitmotif really makes it very versatile. I swear the entire game just screams Gaster all the time.
This is not serious and purely for entertainment.If you know Rob Scallon,his most popular song "Rain",for some reason,has Gaster leitmotif in it,only in different scale(?) and less repetative. Jokes aside.Time for some nerdy explaination. Its kinda scary that "April 2012" not only have the leitmotif,but some if its chord progression is similar too. "Another him" has the leitmotif and the exact same chord progression(as it was the same song),only in different time signature(the 4th note was played a bit late).
@@cas_thekid Its pretty hard to hear(i can barely hear it tbh),but it's still has the same progression.If you can play the Gaster theme(pretty simple,just play those 4 notes)over some part of the song,you can hear it fits perfectly. Another shocking discovery when i was laying down and playing the Gaster theme in my head,then play "it's raining somewhere" afterwards,it also has the same bassline intervals(aka the chord progression).
@@casartherandom3010 We could compare their ways of taking. The only thing we hear form Gaster is the Entry N°17, so that way of taking must be compared with the man's at Deltarunes very beginning (who speaks pretty much like Chara. Compare Deltarune's beginning with Chara's deal).
Tbh I am convinced that most if not all of these are intentional. I think it's less that "oh this theme happens to be very simple so it makes sense we see it everywhere" and more that Toby Fox intentionally wrote the theme to be very simple so that it would be incredibly easy to reference in as many musical contexts as possible.
13:31 I feel like some of the parts return in other songs as well, especially the Credit Song. Which would make sense. The second to last line, as well as the title, is "Don't forget", which is also the last line from checking the Photo in Sans' workshop. And that photo was already heavily implied to have something related to Gaster.
0:38 I remember seeing gameplays of Deltarune for the first time and after hearing the intro theme (the Another Him track) I tied it almost inmmediately to Gaster's theme. It really surprised me. Actually, I don't know if the person on the gameplay said "oW GoD iTs gAsTeRs ThEmE". But seriously, I tied it almost instantly.
I think that the whole dark world that Kris and Susie get stuck in was created by Gaster. This could be why all the Gaster leitmotifs are only in the dark world.
And Kris is clearly involved with the creation of the world with Gaster. Whether by contract or deal, you don’t just randomly get possessed by a red soul.
Its not the fandoms fault if toby made gasters theme a common arpeggio and decided to put it in every single theme, ESPECIALLY in deltarune where hes HEAVILY involved with everything going on Also The "its rude to talk about someone whos listening" just implies hes everywhere, so his leitmotif subtly being everywhere would make sense, but of course since his theme is a common arpeggio, any average player would just dismiss the motif and not think it has to do with something else, hence, gaster is nonexistant, until you look for him
3:27 ooohh only now i realize it, the leitmotif is the BASS! no the main melody(thats why theres not mention of lancers theme or vs lancer), listen carefully!
People keep saying that the constant Gaster leitmotifs in the Deltarune ost is just a coincidence because of how simple Gaster's theme is, but do you think that this was intentional? Like Toby explicitly put similar sounding chords in many of these tracks to make you feel like Gaster is everywhere here?
Personally, I can see all of these but Rouxls Kaard being intentional. I say this because I believe Gaster is actually the Knight making the fountains and probably was the one who made Jevil insane. A more in depth reasoning below Another Him: I just think the character talking is supposed to be Gaster, so obviously his theme would be in it. Scarlett Forest: This area has that one bug area where if you use the phone it crashes the game (thought that may just be a bug), but the Scarlett Forest is also where the Tree Man is, who is speculated to be Gaster. Card Castle: If Gaster is the Knight, he would make the fountain, the King is loyal to this Knight and the castle is the King's, so he would try to make tribute to the Knight somehow. April 2012: Maybe this has some significant meaning to Gaster we don't know yet, maybe something happened to him in April 2012? Thats all I can really think for that one. Chaos King: Same thing as Card Castle, he would want to pay tribute to the creator of the dark world somehow, right? Darkness Falls: I'd believe if you accept defeat you are put in the void, but I have no solid evidence to say for sure. The Circus: If Gaster was the one who made Jevil insane, Jevil would always reference him somehow, so he just put something he could remember of him in his theme? The World Revolving: Same as the Circus. The Holy: If Gaster is the Knight making all these fountains, his theme would be where you destroy the fountain. Friendship: Since Gaster was the one who threw you into Kris' body (the beginning of the game), it would make sense that he is still watching your actions, maybe even trying to prevent you from being able to do some things, so maybe this just shows he is still watching. If anyone can think of anything for Rouxls Kaard, comment below and I'll add it :)
Undertale fans when watching memes: WAS THAT THE FIRST FOUR NOTES OF MEGALOVANIA!? Undertale fans when listening to music: WAS THAT THE FIRST FOUR NOTES OF GASTERS THEME!?
it only makes sense he'd be in many of the songs related to the Dark World, since entry 17 talks about darkness. plus, he's shattered across time and space, so little pieces of him being around also makes sense. i get the feeling Toby gave Gaster such a simple theme so that he could easily fit him in everywhere
idk man, 7th-root-5th-root is a relatively common thing. it's a stretch to call it a full motif unless it goes down a semitone afterward like the original song does. some of them _might_ be right though, like another him
After some of your videos and some of Jakob's, I have been getting nightmares where I TALK TO GASTER. It really was (pun not intended) ver, VERY interesting! So this is how one of the dreams went: He takes me to a dark void-like place. Starts talking in a 'dead' and high-pitched voice: "H...ello." Ok that is going to be hard to write and I am not in the mood of writing a comment for an hour on straight so all of HIS dialogue is not written in the way I described, unless it becomes important to do so. "As you know, we doctors are supposed to cure people, so I have to go." This place reminded me of delatrune. Scarlet forest, especially, I don't remeber much to describe it though..because this specific dream happened a few days ago. "So we have a patient here...... I am goi...ng to cure him." Was it Jevil? Was it Toby? I can't remember. "Why are you here in the dark world? Go back, this place is dangerous, there are demons here. " Me: "Are you a demon!?" * He makes sad noises * "Ye...s." "Oh sir! Can you please stop haunting us and reveal every single thing about yourself soon? I have been scared of everything 0_0" "You should, NOT be very excited. It will happen SOON, ..." HIM: "I, can...t. I cannot tell everyone." "Will you tell me about yourself?" HIM: "We will meet evey once in a while. Hehehe. Have fun. We demons have to scare people, I do not know why, but we just do it without question. I don't want to be scary, you know?" I was silent. Felt relaxed. "I want to go back, but it will be too difficult, so I gave up." His face looked sad, I felt sad :( By this time I was deeply asleep, so I don't know what happened, maybe the dream continued, maybe he said something, but for me it mostly ended, also, I haven't really tried to remeber this dream thinking that people in the internet will find it stupid, haha, but I just did it, I posted it here. Wait my ...thing is lagging, will have to continue in a reply or something.
Ok! Reply = faster and smooth typing again, so here I go: My theory is that Toby probably thought that we would be affected in these ways by the games, like, think of it once, UNDERTALE and deltarune have both been games which affect your thinking, they CONTROL YOUR MIND. They play Mind games with you, because Toby did a great job of making us do what was indicated at any point while playing. For example when fighting Toriel, we spare her, but eventually become irritated to spare anymore, and go for different strategies. These strategies then lead to us killing her, exactly what Toby wants us to do as a mistake for the first time. Note: I don't know what I am doing, please reply about what you find interesting, I am confused, and before this confusion increases, I will go do something better, bi!
Isn't that Muffets laugh? We know that Muffet has some ties with "him" as she says at some point that she met a smiling man and something more about him?
@@joutakujo9773 The Entry #17 sound is muffet's laugh, but the sound when mystery man dissapears is Gaster's theme but with several changes applied to it
I have recreations of some of the songs in FL and I can say 90% of these aren’t intentional, and is just cause gasters leitmotif is extremely simple and only consists of 3 different notes repeating
*card castle* cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/308788230101270529/543148867772874768/unknown.png ok, this is a common pattern to use with these types of songs, and if it was even close to gaster's leitmotif it should've been like this cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/308788230101270529/543149262956003328/unknown.png
*the circus* cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/308788230101270529/543152047655092250/unknown.png really dont see how this is gaster's leitmotif, its close i guess but really doesnt seem intentional in any way
I'm pretty sure that very few of them are intentional quotations, myself (as stated in the disclaimer). I'm almost certain about Another Him, and the first part of Darkness Falls seems fairly likely, though.
Gallery and Man are not included because they 100% not quote the theme (Gallery is actually just three notes repeating).

Also it says he fell into his creation, maybe he fell into a portal to the deltarune world, which cause parts of him to exist everywhere, because you aren't supposed to exist in multiple universes at once.
You see how the character creator theme is called "Another Him?"
In the filles of Undertale, Gaster's theme was called "him.ogg"
He is definetely helping you create a character in the beginning,its all capitals like his wingdings.the person who removes ur character is somebody else

Or perhaps, if that ever so prominent sprite really is Gaster (or some extension of him), the other person speaking is the second face in that sprite? There IS a second face there. The sprite’s hands are the eyes.
I’d go with the first option imo, as both characters seem to have some influence on the game and both seem to “cancel each other out.” By that I mean that you cannot kill everyone in Deltarune, but you cannot get everyone onto your side either.

I like to imagine that Toby made Gaster's Theme so simple so that he can hide it in as many songs as he wants/needs to without it seeming forced.
maybe, Gaster is everywhere at once so it would make sense

Confirmation bias. Basically, you are biased towards evidence that confirms your theory. Its also a bit like how you can hear the audio more clearly when you have subtitles on because your brain is specifically looking for words that sound like what you are expecting.
Your comment has 666 likes... Gaster confirmed!

I love the fact that Gaster's theme is so easy to insert EVERYWHERE because of its simplicity, it really shows how shattered across time and space he really is, because he's all over the place.
Something interesting I noticed is that Gaster’s theme, the Twilight Zone theme, and Lavender town theme are all composed basically the same: They are zig zag lines.
Gaster: Low Mid High Mid
Twilight Zone: Mid High Mid Low
Lavender town: Low Mid High Mid
Apparently zig zag lines are creepy
You mean arpegios?
i dunno, i aint a musical man
Don't forget the Jeopardy waiting theme. (aka backwards lavender town theme :o)
You can make your own creepy music with a quick trick. Picking any diminished seventh chord and arpeggiating it makes for a spooky creepo sound. I think it’s because the chord is non-committal to being major or minor which puts it in some sort of auditory uncanny valley!
And then you add in some tritones and before you know it you got your very own spooky lavender town-esque creep-jam.
@@orionolson2240
You mean the Chaos Emeralds?
I'm gonna just leave my opinion here, I'm no expert on any of this:
Even though Gaster's theme has only three unique notes, the distance between the notes is important. The first and second notes are right next to each other, while the second and third are more than half an octave apart.
_A list of the songs in this video, ordered by how convinced I am, from most to least:_
*Another Him* - The game's entire intro is Gaster themed. The song is basically identical, just with a new rhythm.
*Darkness Falls* - The first measure of each phrase is the original theme, with the rest of the phrases being an extension. Seems like a logical way to make a song out of Gaster's theme.
^ (both of the above songs are also played on echo-bathed pianos, like the original) ^
*Scarlet Forest & The World Revolving* - The accent is on the high note instead of the low, but it's still the same theme with similar relative intervals between the notes. Also, both of these areas have something that's at least supposed to make us think of Gaster, those being Mr. Egg and the strange man with a "darker, yet darker" worldview who met with Jevil.
*The Circus* - I'm a little less convinced with the song itself, but I'm pretty sure about it being in Jevil's other theme so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
*Friendship* - I really don't see a reason for this song to have Gaster's theme but the intervals are correct between all of the notes so I'm not against it.
*April 2012* - The chords definitely sound the same, but if the song was actually written in April of 2012 it seems like a coincidence to me. Still pretty interesting.
*Card Castle* - I think this is just a standard, non-Gaster-related bass arpeggio. Those were pretty common in NES music (since full chords would talk all of the NES's sound channels), which I'm pretty sure this song is styled after. Some sections do sound kinda similar in way of intervals, but not enough for me to be convinced.
*Rouxls Kaard* - Again, pretty sure this is just a standard arpeggio. No Gasting here.
*THE HOLY* - Yea, it's another arpeggio, but this one isn't even going in the right direction. the chords don't sound all that similar either.
*Chaos King* - I'm not really sure which part you're saying is Gaster. The guitar? Anyway, I just don't hear it.
So, that's my opinion. Again, I'm no expert on this, I just think conversation and debate is fun. sry for long comment.
I agree. Most of these "Gaster's Theme Sightings" are just simple arpeggios unrelated to Gaster's theme. When they hear 4 notes going low middle high middle, they immediately say "gAsTeR's ThEmE!!1."
I agree, although I actually hear more of the theme in "The Circus" than I do in "THE WORLD REVOLVING." Also, I was surprised this video didn't include the Man Behind the Tree song. I guess it isn't part of the main soundtrack, but then again, Gaster's theme isn't part of Undertale's main soundtrack.
But yeah, "Another Him" is definitely intentional, right down to the name (Gaster's theme's file is "mus_st_him"). "Darkness Falls" sounds pretty intentional, too, and I wouldn't put it past Toby to reference Gaster in either of Jevil's themes, due to Jevil's connection to Gaster. Chances are you're right about "Scarlet Forest" as well.
It seemed like in this video, the appearances of Lancer's theme in both "Chaos King" and "Card Castle" were confused for the Gaster theme.
pretty much sums up my thoughts on these comparisons
My thoughts exactly
Exactly! Notes 1 and 2 are only a semitone apart, while notes 2 and 3 are an entire fifth apart.
Imagine Toby made these songs and never realised those leitmotifs-
not too unlikely tbh
@@MediaMotifs to be fair 1232s are really common, but with Toby it’s a different story I guess
Imagine if toby actually doesn't know how to make music
Literally no way
damn i just realized that now a minute ago
I think "Darkness Falls" and "Another Him" are the most likely candidates for being purposeful Gaster leitmotifs, which also might hint that there'll be much more Gaster related stuff in Deltarune
I'm pretty excited ngl

@@yourlocalpoobrain3899 yeah
If you name yourself gaster it resets your character creation 😃
Perhaps "Another Him" means it's another Gaster, not the same Gaster that was in Undertale, just as all the other characters (excluding Sans). Instead of some timey-wimey thing happening to him causing him to split into pieces around the universe, he is a different, more god-like figure which births beings to the world of Deltarune somehow? Or maybe, "Another Him" refers to you creating a goner (gaster follower, they are perhaps monsters or humans, even, that have been infused with a piece of the same Gaster from Undertale), since apparently in the code of the game, this whole creation scene is called "Goner Maker".
Adding to this, deltarune is an alternate universe/timeline of undertale. All the characters are the same old characters you knew just with a tiny bit of changes, like how ralsei is an anagram of asriel. So this could also apply to gaster. Since we’re in an entirely different universe and the core was never built, gaster still could exist. Since there wasn’t any core to fall into, gaster couldn’t be shattered across time and space.
Neppo well gaster is everywhere all the time, scattered around spacetime
Armantale likewise, the clam that shows up with a certain FUN value tells you about Susie. In the switch version there’s also a chance that they’ll do a think where they’ll look like one of gaster’s followers.
Kyubeyz_ yeah but it was spelt Suzy, not Susie.
Armantale no way rlly?
Dang it
Read the description. Are you crazy?! This is Toby boi, it's _definitely_ intentional.
Agreed!!
Four notes can be easily put into another song without actually being intentional.
Yes, but it's Toby we're talking about, a smart sly and lazy dog. Most of the music in Undertale are composed of other ones: example, Spider Dance being basically another version of Ghost fight and Dummy, the bells of Finale being his theme, part of Asgore is Heartache, and etc... This is *definitely* intentional.
@@UnStorm yea
This is Toby messing with everyone and then Gaster will have no importance in the story.

Nah that stretch was wider than goatsee after 3 bottles of poppers
Some of them are kind of far fetched, but i get the intention
A lot of them are probably supposed to be subtle
The clearest ones are The World Revolving, Another Him and Friendship.
@@CaptainCoolzCT- darkness falls is pretty clear too
It’s so odd how ever since he’s been discovered, he’s been connected to almost everything involving Deltarune and Undertale
In Gaster's Theme, as you know, there are 4 notes played 4 times and another 4 notes played 4 times, repeating.
The first notes are "A - B♭ - F - B♭", or a "3 - 4 - 8 - 4" pattern on the F Major scale.
The second notes are "A♭ - A - E - A", or the "3 - 4 - 8 - 4" pattern on the E Major scale.
Therefore, Gaster's leitmotif should be considered this progression of notes within a chord.
I feel like Gaster is gonna get an Actual Role in the game instead of kinda being a background character. I'm excited to see what Toby has in store for us for Chapter 2.
edit: hi yes i posted this comment 2 years ago during my cringy middle school days stop liking it
I hope so
Yeah. Gaster's Theme wasn't heard in ANY other song in Undertale, but was heard in at least ANOTHER HIM and Darkness Falls here. Also, between the strange game-aware man who made Jevil go insane, and Seam referencing Entry Number 17, I'm pretty sure it's not unintentional.
@@TwilightFlower9 I'm pretty sure Gaster's Theme is buried somewhere in Song that might play when you fight Sans.
Papyrus has his theme in there, so it wouldn't surprise me.
Frost Glader it’s within a part in the first few sections i dunno where tho
An Actual Roll sounds like a delicious food item Toby would put into one of his games.
Is it just me or is the background while you create your vessel looks like an x-ray of human chest bones?
Skeleton???????!?!?!?!?÷
Well that's oddly specific
I don't know if it's an x-ray, but it surely is the background in Jevil's fight, behind the carousel.

I just find it interesting that every song on this list id from the dark world. And, I think the ones with Jevil, The King, and Rouxls are intentional, cause they were all affected by the Knight.
Wtf rouxls is affected by the knight?
I know that this is a year old, but when was Jevil or Rouxls affected by the knight?
I mean Jevil knows about the Knight (and some sort of Queen), but his and Seams dialogue seemed like Gaster and the Knight were different entitys as Seam could of said that Jevil met the Knight and not "a strange someone".

I feel like Gaster's theme is only a part of his true theme, and when or if he appears in deltarune, physically and not just disembodied text, the arpeggio we all know will be part of a full song.
A full song made of Gaster's theme? That sounds like a bop.
Vantablack from Glitchtale is a good example
@@-Solidwater we got a taste of it with Jevil's theme. As soon as I heard that I was like, "Yep, that’s 100%."
Yeah. I feel like what we know as 'gaster's theme' is a dissonant/corrupted version of his 'real theme'
I feel like Darkness Falls might be a version of that, honestly. Plus, I find it interesting that Darkness Falls has the game over song as part of it, considering the game over theme of Undertale turned out to be a part of Asgore's theme. Certainly makes one wonder, doesn't it?
For the majority (or all) of these I don't believe these are coincidences because of the popular theory that Gaster created the Deltarune world it makes sense why there's so many motifs of the mystery man himself's theme.
... Just wait and see...

HA!
most compelling evidence to me is the fact that in game code, the intro "vessel creator" types with a typer value of 666, which is the same one as journal 17 in Undertale (which is in wingdings and one of the most obvious gaster things available)
The fact that Gaster's theme is barely in undertale and then is blatantly in one of the first tracks you hear in Deltarune is so fucking unnerving
Honestly. I think every single one of these was intentional. Producing music all by yourself means you're laser-focused on every aspect of the sound as you've likely listened to every track isolated multiple times. It's highly unlikely Toby put a bunch of these in without realising.
Especially since Toby is such a motif-focused composer. The entirety of the Undertale soundtrack intentionally lacks the Gaster Theme motif apart from Dating Start!. I think Toby makes accidents with coding and art, but VERY rarely with music.
This. If Toby was so careless as to place the Gaster leitmotif in so much music in Deltarune unintentionally, you'd think it would've also happened in Undertale, but it doesn't.
Its actually taking the major key of gaster’s theme, representing he’ll be a major role in the story as he is in the songs.
Actually there is his leitmotif in bring it in guys, and only on the sans and papyrus part weirdly enough
@@paradoxicaloutcome1007 it... does though?
The fact that Rouxls Kaard's theme is constantly blaring Gaster's theme in the background is the most blatant foreshadowing I've ever heard.
Look at his face and tell me that shit isn't intentional
Especially since Rouxls Kaard has the same initials as Roaring Knight
C'mon, hearing Darkness Falls was like, I hear those four notes and I just went *IS THAT A FREAKIN GASTER REFERENCE?!*
The OG Gaster video has remained to be one of my favorites largely because Gaster is such a mysterious, fascinating character. Dude this was A HUGE step up. The comparisons sound so much clearer. Awesome job.
I dunno. I like Gaster, but he and all the non-existent yet existent stuff makes my head spin.
Whoops; You forgot to make Gaster golden at the 3:00 mark!
Thanks for pointing it out. If I'm honest, towards the end of making this video I started losing motivation so I think there's quite a few mistakes in the video.

@@joaquinfernandez3977 no.
@@ethanotoroculus1060 it was a joke
I like how it’s the same variation of Gaster’s theme. It’s almost never outright “Gaster’s Theme”, but the last note is always shifted higher in the second repetition. Maybe that’s just me, though.
2015: Gaster is scattered across time and space
2018: Gaster is scattered across Deltarune.
EDIT - I agree with the description as I think in fact "Another Him" and "Darkness Falls" are the only ones which distinctively have the leitmotifs, for the other song there's a bit of a stretch. Thanks for the video anyway, it was awesome!

@@-Solidwater godly comment
Gaster says *I CAN PUT MY THEME IN ANYTHING*
Players: *M U S T S E A R CH*
Shh....
It’s crazy how much of an influence a character we’ve never really seen other than once in an extremely obscure secret has over the community
Eventhough some choices are debatable, I think that would be on toby, since Gaster got such a "simple" theme and his presence in DR is so heavily hinted at.
“Another Him” is clearly made on purpose, as Gaster’s them in the undertale music files is called “him”
Something else: The file name for Gaster's Theme is mus_soundtest_him.ogg, which means that the name of Another Him is based off of this, which, in addition to the fact that Another Him is clearly based off of Gaster's Theme, means that Another Him is meant to belong to Gaster, as another theme of his, which is turn means that the person who's talking to you at the beginning of the game is Gaster.
Now I know that it was Gaster making your creation with you. The background is like a void
The leitmotif in Card Castle is just Lancer’s theme
Same goes for Chaos King
No the background
Bass line
i feel like some of these are just coincidence but the ones im certain are on purpose are another him, darkness falls, and maybe the circus and the word revolving
Holy canoly it's very well hidden in The world revolving
I have never heard it before, but as soon as I read that it's in The world revolving that specific part came to my mind.
Thris was a very nice video
after the whole spamton thing and the guy saying "i picked up the phone and couldnt hear anything but garbage noise" only to later you use your phone and hear the gaster speaking from undertale and it saying "its nothing but garbage noise" i became fully convinced gaster was a major plot point in this game plus a lot of important characters deliberatedly resembling him
it could be just toby fox fucking with the community but after gaster apparently making spamton become crazy aswell jevil both having themes of freedom or becoming free it leads me to think he is behind the entirety of deltarune
and every single other character is being manipulated as he said himself this next experiment is going to be very interesting
You know, using a simple up-and-down melody as a character's leitmotif really makes it very versatile. I swear the entire game just screams Gaster all the time.
4:37 Rouxls Kaard is now 300× more sus
This is not serious and purely for entertainment.If you know Rob Scallon,his most popular song "Rain",for some reason,has Gaster leitmotif in it,only in different scale(?) and less repetative.
Jokes aside.Time for some nerdy explaination.
Its kinda scary that "April 2012" not only have the leitmotif,but some if its chord progression is similar too.
"Another him" has the leitmotif and the exact same chord progression(as it was the same song),only in different time signature(the 4th note was played a bit late).
I dont hear april 2012
@@cas_thekid Its pretty hard to hear(i can barely hear it tbh),but it's still has the same progression.If you can play the Gaster theme(pretty simple,just play those 4 notes)over some part of the song,you can hear it fits perfectly.

Roman are you talking about the main melody or the (kind of) base sounds in the background of it. Just asking cause it kinda threw me off at first.
I think the leitmotif is in the bass, just slower than usual. It's best heard with headphones
Thanks so much!
The circus is definitely one and Scarlet Forest
And world revolving
Springlock Gamer I’m still finding your comments everywhere
Gaster's theme on Undertale is "him" and on Deltarune it is "another him". Creepy.
Tbh I am convinced that most if not all of these are intentional. I think it's less that "oh this theme happens to be very simple so it makes sense we see it everywhere" and more that Toby Fox intentionally wrote the theme to be very simple so that it would be incredibly easy to reference in as many musical contexts as possible.
the lavender town theme sounds like gasters theme a little bit
4:38 - 5:04

Which would make sense. The second to last line, as well as the title, is "Don't forget", which is also the last line from checking the Photo in Sans' workshop.
And that photo was already heavily implied to have something related to Gaster.
0:38 I remember seeing gameplays of Deltarune for the first time and after hearing the intro theme (the Another Him track) I tied it almost inmmediately to Gaster's theme. It really surprised me.
Actually, I don't know if the person on the gameplay said "oW GoD iTs gAsTeRs ThEmE". But seriously, I tied it almost instantly.
I think that the whole dark world that Kris and Susie get stuck in was created by Gaster. This could be why all the Gaster leitmotifs are only in the dark world.
Dark
And Kris is clearly involved with the creation of the world with Gaster. Whether by contract or deal, you don’t just randomly get possessed by a red soul.
@@sarrinight everyone has souls dont they
Its not the fandoms fault if toby made gasters theme a common arpeggio and decided to put it in every single theme, ESPECIALLY in deltarune where hes HEAVILY involved with everything going on
Also
The "its rude to talk about someone whos listening" just implies hes everywhere, so his leitmotif subtly being everywhere would make sense, but of course since his theme is a common arpeggio, any average player would just dismiss the motif and not think it has to do with something else, hence, gaster is nonexistant, until you look for him
3:27 ooohh only now i realize it, the leitmotif is the BASS! no the main melody(thats why theres not mention of lancers theme or vs lancer), listen carefully!
9:52 How did I not notice that before?!
9:43 "Friendship Smells like chaos.
2:53: the machine was so ugly that it started playing gasters theme once it revealed
Imagine Toby made all of these and didn’t even know until he saw this vid 😂😂
People keep saying that the constant Gaster leitmotifs in the Deltarune ost is just a coincidence because of how simple Gaster's theme is, but do you think that this was intentional? Like Toby explicitly put similar sounding chords in many of these tracks to make you feel like Gaster is everywhere here?
I’m just straight beautiful, like this video.
Wait I’m lost in this video and confused!
It makes sense that Gaster’s theme shows so prominently in Scarlet forest because it has a strong tie to Gaster in terms of the man with the egg.
3:26 Well, that's just Lancer's motif
Edit: I see now you meant the baseline. It reminds me of Once Upon a Time, too.
Personally, I can see all of these but Rouxls Kaard being intentional. I say this because I believe Gaster is actually the Knight making the fountains and probably was the one who made Jevil insane. A more in depth reasoning below
Another Him: I just think the character talking is supposed to be Gaster, so obviously his theme would be in it.
Scarlett Forest: This area has that one bug area where if you use the phone it crashes the game (thought that may just be a bug), but the Scarlett Forest is also where the Tree Man is, who is speculated to be Gaster.
Card Castle: If Gaster is the Knight, he would make the fountain, the King is loyal to this Knight and the castle is the King's, so he would try to make tribute to the Knight somehow.
April 2012: Maybe this has some significant meaning to Gaster we don't know yet, maybe something happened to him in April 2012? Thats all I can really think for that one.
Chaos King: Same thing as Card Castle, he would want to pay tribute to the creator of the dark world somehow, right?
Darkness Falls: I'd believe if you accept defeat you are put in the void, but I have no solid evidence to say for sure.
The Circus: If Gaster was the one who made Jevil insane, Jevil would always reference him somehow, so he just put something he could remember of him in his theme?
The World Revolving: Same as the Circus.
The Holy: If Gaster is the Knight making all these fountains, his theme would be where you destroy the fountain.
Friendship: Since Gaster was the one who threw you into Kris' body (the beginning of the game), it would make sense that he is still watching your actions, maybe even trying to prevent you from being able to do some things, so maybe this just shows he is still watching.
If anyone can think of anything for Rouxls Kaard, comment below and I'll add it :)
I doubt April 2012 has anything to do with gaster as he was created late into undertales development. Unless it's where Toby derived the theme
Another him , Scarlet Forest , Card castle , Rouxls Kaard , Darkness Falls and Friendship have Gaster lemotif others im not sure
the first scene 0:15 - 0:35 really caught me off guard, really nice cut
I was wondering if you could please make a video on all the music in Super Paper Mario that use the Flipside leitmotif?
Undertale fans when watching memes: WAS THAT THE FIRST FOUR NOTES OF MEGALOVANIA!?
Undertale fans when listening to music: WAS THAT THE FIRST FOUR NOTES OF GASTERS THEME!?
I *want* to play the other chapter, my hype for UT and Deltarune will never die
it only makes sense he'd be in many of the songs related to the Dark World, since entry 17 talks about darkness. plus, he's shattered across time and space, so little pieces of him being around also makes sense. i get the feeling Toby gave Gaster such a simple theme so that he could easily fit him in everywhere
April 2012 was originally a song written for Homestuck, there is literally no way it could have the Gaster motif.
Any Undertale/Deltarune song: S-so what is it?
MediaMotifs: You have been tested Positive for a Gaster Leitmotif
When the heart appeared my phone vibrated lol
idk man, 7th-root-5th-root is a relatively common thing. it's a stretch to call it a full motif unless it goes down a semitone afterward like the original song does.
some of them _might_ be right though, like another him
I love the part in the world revolving
After some of your videos and some of Jakob's, I have been getting nightmares where I TALK TO GASTER.
It really was (pun not intended) ver, VERY interesting!
So this is how one of the dreams went:
He takes me to a dark void-like place. Starts talking in a 'dead' and high-pitched voice: "H...ello."
Ok that is going to be hard to write and I am not in the mood of writing a comment for an hour on straight so all of HIS dialogue is not written in the way I described, unless it becomes important to do so.
"As you know, we doctors are supposed to cure people, so I have to go."
This place reminded me of delatrune. Scarlet forest, especially, I don't remeber much to describe it though..because this specific dream happened a few days ago.
"So we have a patient here...... I am goi...ng to cure
him."
Was it Jevil? Was it Toby? I can't remember.
"Why are you here in the dark world? Go back, this place is dangerous, there are demons here. "
Me: "Are you a demon!?"
* He makes sad noises *
"Ye...s."
"Oh sir! Can you please stop haunting us and reveal every single thing about yourself soon? I have been scared of everything 0_0"
"You should, NOT
be very excited. It will happen
SOON, ..."
HIM: "I, can...t. I cannot tell everyone."
"Will you tell me about yourself?"
HIM: "We will meet evey once in a while. Hehehe. Have fun.
We demons have to scare people, I do not know why, but we just do it without question.
I don't want to be scary, you know?"
I was silent. Felt relaxed.
"I want to go back, but it will be too difficult, so I gave up."
His face looked sad, I felt sad :(
By this time I was deeply asleep, so I don't know what happened, maybe the dream continued, maybe he said something, but for me it mostly ended, also, I haven't really tried to remeber this dream thinking that people in the internet will find it stupid, haha, but I just did it, I posted it here.
Wait my ...thing is lagging, will have to continue in a reply or something.
Ok! Reply = faster and smooth typing again, so here I go:
My theory is that Toby probably thought that we would be affected in these ways by the games, like, think of it once, UNDERTALE and deltarune have both been games which affect your thinking, they CONTROL YOUR MIND.
They play Mind games with you, because Toby did a great job of making us do what was indicated at any point while playing.
For example when fighting Toriel, we spare her, but eventually become irritated to spare anymore, and go for different strategies. These strategies then lead to us killing her, exactly what Toby wants us to do as a mistake for the first time.

at this point it feels like you’re nitpicking at small parts of songs and saying “bro its gaster”

ok, this is a common pattern to use with these types of songs, and if it was even close to gaster's leitmotif it should've been like this cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/308788230101270529/543149262956003328/unknown.png

really dont see how this is gaster's leitmotif, its close i guess but really doesnt seem intentional in any way

same thing with darkness falls,
I'm pretty sure that very few of them are intentional quotations, myself (as stated in the disclaimer). I'm almost certain about Another Him, and the first part of Darkness Falls seems fairly likely, though.
