i haved played the game a 300+ hours allready, and your music never gets me tired! This music like a dream! As always a great work! 4:35 especially this part was blessing for my ears...
It's really one of the most beautiful tracks in the game. Although I don't think I've ever lingered at the Crossroads intentionally... Trying to figure out new comps holds me there for a long time already :D
The cello at 3:04 will forever be my favourite part of the track. It really gives the sense of how much the world has fallen and the heroes are there to witness all of it.
I firmly believe Darkest Dungeon as a series would not have taken of nearly as much as it did if it wasn't for Stuart Chatwood's music. It really compliments the vibe so well
I started playing DD2 about two weeks ago and soon after I started, I was searching for this theme on the Internet, but it was damn hard to find, because it exists in many different versions, with different intensities, and here I am, with this amazing tune delivered right under my doorstep! Thanks a lot
I have been very patiently waiting for this track to officially drop and i am finally rewarded after 2 years! Definitely my favorite, alongside the menu theme. Excellent work as always!
Hauntingly beautiful and hopelessly ensure you to fight this maddening world. Madness, Hopeless, Sorrow, Horror, Terror, you think it's enough? Shaken? "there is still so much worse in store"
There are many more things coming. MANY. I believe they’ll be new stuff dropping over at the next four years! Some of the DLC will be bigger and will have a small fee but like the original game, you’ll be able to grab all the DLC and soundtrack in an affordable package.
@@StuartChatwood Sweet! I didn't expect such a private question to get that kind of answer! I loved the Shieldbreaker DLC in the last game, so if Red Hook is looking for fan feedback, I would recommend more stuff involving the sands of the East, mysterious desert warriors, and nightmares from the past. Anything you guys make will be good, though, I'm sure. I guess I have a bit of a dilemma then. Do I get Darkest Dungeon 2 now, or do I wait a while to get a discount on the pack? I suppose time will tell. Either way, your work absolutely makes this series, Stuart. I loved the music in The Binding Blade teaser. I assume that that was you again, so here's some more well-deserved congratulations!
@@warrioroflight6872 i deadass forgot to get the "Iron Crown Package" when DD2 first released (both games from the series together, with a 25% discount) well i only forgot for the 1st game
Stuart Chatwood always attempts to do the "Try Not To Make The Most Athmospheric And Amazing Soundtrack On Earth" challenge and fails every goddamn time
That riff at 4:34 is incredibly memorable. This song overall puts me in a nostalgic mood every time I hear it. It reminds me of playing Torchlight 2 back in 2012 because Matt Uelmen's composition also used acoustic guitar and had a similar oppressive gloomy mood.
Absolutely fantastic! One of my favourites by far! Driving after dark with this blasting from the speakers is an unforgettable experience. 4:35 always gives me goosebumps, I wish I could learn to play the guitar just for that part, so that I could keep repeating it over and over.
Would it be possible to upload the quiet version of this soundtrack? The one that plays when visiting a location during a region (Hoarder/Academic's Study etc.). It's the best variant of the soundtrack IMO.
I Love it, i'm wondering if they are going to add more areas to the game, i know they game was already released and at this point red hook studios is just releasing patches but i would love to see new areas and of course hear new ost.
Wonderful Stuart! The game feels so much more alive with you as it’s voice. I can’t think of any other game which’s ost is so good it’s a main reason why I’m excited for dlc! Will we be hearing a new track from you when The Warlord makes his march in with the first DLC?
Is there a way to access to this soundtrack's 'low-light' (lower than 50 flame) version? There are some tidbits of it in this video, but not quite the 'full' version of it. Would be really happy to listen to it if possible. Thanks for your answer in advance, Mr. Stuart. Love all the hard work you do!
If you go on my BANDCAMP page you can listen to track 11 the-winding-valley-complete. It contains all levels of intensity (flame level). PowerUp Audio would have seamlessly blended these depending on you progress. If you buy the track the quality is superior to the Bandcamp free preview version.
Hello, I have a request from you. I would like you to upload the Welcome Within ost song of the Prince of Persia Warrior Within game. I could not find this song on your channel. It is not even on ubisoft music. I wish you a good day❤
@@StuartChatwood I think the 'medium' (second?) intensity variant is the best! When I first started the game and heard it right at the beginning, at the crossroads, I just remained on the spot, stunned for a few minutes by the music. Unforgettable!
Thanks for listening. Check out the full album and add it to a playlist on Spotify, Apple, Amazon or other sites!
You summoned Morricone with this one Stuart; you really gave the intro a distinct feeling.
It really sets the mood. It almost feels like an invisible clock counting down toward a melancholic end for the world.
because it is, just without the clock
i haved played the game a 300+ hours allready, and your music never gets me tired! This music like a dream! As always a great work!
4:35 especially this part was blessing for my ears...
Glad you enjoy it!
@@StuartChatwood Of course! Wishing you health and inspiration till next time :)
same, that part is special
Sometimes I find myself just sitting at the Crossroads listening to this track. Absolutely mesmerizing.
i passively listen to it a lot because it takes a while to look at everyone's quirks and picking the right path
I know if I still really like it after recording and mixing then it should resonate will people.
It's really one of the most beautiful tracks in the game.
Although I don't think I've ever lingered at the Crossroads intentionally... Trying to figure out new comps holds me there for a long time already :D
The cello at 3:04 will forever be my favourite part of the track.

One of my top tracks in the game.
I agree! 3:04 is the best part! And the 3:22 drop ^^

Haunting. Dreadful. Foreshadowing.
You never cease to amaze this community Mr.Chatwood. Thank you for your work.
Thanks for stopping by to listen.

🙌 I'll drop more in the coming weeks.
I rarely want to leave the crossroads because of this theme. Phenomenal work, as always, truly fitting for a place Between places.
Hauntingly beautiful and hopelessly ensure you to fight this maddening world.
Madness, Hopeless, Sorrow, Horror, Terror, you think it's enough? Shaken?
"there is still so much worse in store"
So Stuart, now that I know about the Crusader's comeback, I want the game for real!
Am I allowed to ask how many more DLC's are being planned?
There are many more things coming. MANY. I believe they’ll be new stuff dropping over at the next four years! Some of the DLC will be bigger and will have a small fee but like the original game, you’ll be able to grab all the DLC and soundtrack in an affordable package.
@@StuartChatwood If that means we will get more of your music, then I'm all in!

When i see these broken, desperate and (a little) insane characters - THIS is the perfect theme for them!
I find my self humming this tune once in a while, a nice song to get stuck in your head.
I’ve been known to hum this one as well.

Glad you're enjoying this as it was one of the favourite pieces for the entire audio team.
You really never miss the mark, man! Unlike my Leper...
Stuart Chatwood? More like Stuart Chadwood! Incredible work as usual! As haunting as one can get!
This haunting track is one of my favorite parts of the game, aside from the inn and menu themes. Well done, can’t wait for more 👍
what about the cultist fight theme?
@@kamilslup7743 Cultist fight theme is definitely A tier. I just don’t like it quite as much as the motif used in the inn and main themes
This really sets the tone for "Gotta make the most of a living that you can, while you still have your life".
Pleeeease please release the version where you're at the crossroads choosing your party. This soundtrack is amazing though, lovely and great work
Getting "A Brief Respite" vibes from this, can't get too comfy on the road so we'll take what we can.
Trying to keep a theme through both games.
You are a genius Stuart. Love you with passion
Thanks for your support
Лучшая игровая музыка💪🏻
GOD!!❤
This game couldn’t pull me in the way the first one did but the music is phenomenal regardless. Fave part for me is 3:04 to 3:46
I have a few favourite moments in this track but the cello hitting the melody is perhaps my fav as well.
Best gift in this time. Tnx, mr. Chatwood.
Thanks!

I think some fans have successfully ripped this from the in game audio engine.
Love your works, greetings from Argentina!
Nice and atmospheric track, suitable for exploration of depressing apocalyptic landscapes which players can see during the game. Great work, Stuart! 👍
Thanks for your comments.
You are legitimately a musical genius.
Thanks for the kind words
I Love it, i'm wondering if they are going to add more areas to the game, i know they game was already released and at this point red hook studios is just releasing patches but i would love to see new areas and of course hear new ost.
patches? we just got the 1st DLC mate, which brings back crusader, adds a new hero and adds a new miniboss
WHAT! REYNAULD IS BACK?!@@kamilslup7743
New DLC in December and more DLC planned for the next number of years. No one is abandoning this game. Like the first game it will continue to grow.
Love your work
Cheers!
The Crossroads - Who will step forward into the light?
Thanks for listening
Amazing.

@@StuartChatwood fantastic good to hear! My sister loves your old band!
Is it just me, or does this sound ever so slightly faster than the version we get in-game?
Should be the same.
와.. 사랑합니다
듣기 주셔서 감사합니다
I hope for a third game mainly for the ost. lol
Im pretty sure this song is effected by light levels, does anybody know where i can find the low torch vers?

Is there a plan for vinyl recording of your music like in DD1?
There are ongoing vinyl discussions.

UNfortunately Ubisoft controls most of those rights. :(
@@StuartChatwood I understand thank you very much❤
Which area does this music come from?
"The crossroads, a place beetwen places"
This is the main exploration music. The full version is 26 minutes of different intensities.
