DOG
Time to devour gods
the dog is real
I loved the part where the devourer of gods said “it’s devouring time“ and proceeded to devour my FPS. Truly a gaming moment of all times
True XD
"don't get laggy, kid!"
My with my i7 4820k 😭😭😭
YOU ARE NO ROUTER, BUT I SHALL FEAST ON YOUR FPS NONTHERLESS
BEHOLD THE POWER OF THE DEVOURER!!!
the dog nonstop mix is legendary, probably one of the best in the entire ost. cant wait for you to listen to roar of the jungle dragon
i agree with every word
Facts brother, so true my friend.
Also excited to see his reaction to Stained Brutal Calamity
I agree with everything you said except "probably"
Collective consciousness agrees that this is indeed one of the best, despite constantly debating which "one of the best" is the best
roar is not that banger
The Servants of the Scourge Theme is broken up into 3 different tracks cause there are 3 different bosses. Each Boss has its own unique second part of the song. The first one with the bells are for Storm Weaver the worm boss, the second more angry sounding one is for Ceasless Void, the little portal with the wings, and the third dramatic one is for Signus, the one with the creepy cloak. That's why is sounded like "phases" it's just 3 different boss themes.
Which one's your favorite boss, either design wise or difficulty wise?
if i had to day, probably Ceaseless Void. hes a pretty unique boss being a literal blackhole, and hes also pretty hard to defeat, took me a few tries as a summoner@@merilynnshark6144
@@merilynnshark6144
Storm Weaver and Signus are both kind of underwhelming and the easiest to fight since you can just run along a long platform while fighting them but the Ceaseless Void has really fun spiral patterns to dodge although they can become very overwhelming on your first few tries
@@envycollari swear ceaseless void was so much harder in previous updates, and i will never forgive it for that
@@envycollar I hate the ceaseless void man, on my first playthrough (revengence) it took me around 30 tries to beat em.
The Devourer of Gods is notorious for kind of being the main gate into the final bosses, being pretty hard and a long fight. With the song, you get a feel like there are stakes, that if you don't do this the world you've built up will be gone. It's one of my favorite fights and songs in the whole mod
its my least favorite fight in the mod (im an infernum player)
@@literallynikooneshot sad, i hate infernum providence. especially with the new update
@@literallynikooneshot i could agree
@@GET_SEALED_-db7su infernum prov isnt too bad
@@literallynikooneshot First play through with friends DoG took 7 or so tries to beat. Yharon took two
I really hope DM Dokuro has seen all the love for his calamity stuff recently, it sucks that he lost all passion for it because the fandom being a nasty fandom, he made such amazing music but when he released it they critiqued it and called the placeholder music better, they pressured him to work faster, and eventually his mental health suffered because of these issues and it sucks, I hope he knows that we love his calamity music, even if he has moved on.
It really is such a shame, I'm a huge fan of his work and it genuinely hurts to see how negitively it's effected him.
His recent music is also MUCH better. I love STILL HERE & Bacteriophage. I can't wait for the next They Know Who They Are track to be released.
@@MonochromeAlex The vibe of the new tracks is not for me but I respect the hustle
@@MonochromeAlexreal asf They Know Who They Are is really good
@@thedevourerofgods1686 the momentary highs, the unfathomable lows is honestly one of my favorite songs ever. that and keep walking
It's crazy how the D.O.G songs have become such comfort music I can fall asleep to them at this point.
the theme of one the most stressful fights becoming comfort music is ironic
@@paracame8162i mean if the music was also stressful i and many more would just give up because it would be the definition of unfun lol
Your SAN has decreased to the point where your DOG is now a friend.
Welcome DOG. Welcome what comes.
Bruh don't call me out like this, my sleep playlist has Stained, Brutal, Calamity, DOG nonstop mix, and Roar of the Jungle Dragon (And half of Tally Hall's Good and Evil playlist)
bruh how do you fall asleep to that those songs make me feel like i drink coffee 10 times each day for a year💀

ADRENALINE AND RAGE COMBO!
Universal collapse has to be hands down my favorite theme from calamity. It constantly reminds me that me and Devourer of gods (also called DoG by the community) have a history.
SAME
that’s literally just an abbreviation
Agreed
the beginning drop is the best part
Those bells... It all started because of those bells...
Bells = Things got real fast
The Sentinels of the Devourer serve the Devourer of Gods. As you fight each of the three to gather materials and summon the Devourer himself, the song will play different sections depending on the Sentinel.
Most music after Astrum Deus represent fighting Gods. That’s why most of these newer songs have so many holy bells.

The the 3 different themes in SoS is representative of each of the 3 bosses that each variant plays for. The first one is the Storm Weaver, and it is the last living member of it's species aside from the DoG themself, hence why it's theme is the most reminiscent of DoG's theme. The second is The Ceaseless Void, a hole in reality created by the DoG harnessed into a weapon. It's quite a chaotic entity and it's theme reflects this well. The final is Signus, Envoy of the Devourer, a shapeshifter who no one knows the true origin of. His theme is probably the most dark because of this.
Void's lore was changed, now it's actually some sort of portal to the DoG homeland, he claimed he created it, but according to the lore item it was obviously much older than him.
A lot of DM Dokuro’s songs for the Calamity mod has that sort of feeling like “It’s the final battle. You know what to do, but you only have one shot, so make it count!”, and i am all for it.
The nonstop mix is definitely one of my favorite tracks in the ost! The tubular bells are used in the later tracks to emphasize the fact that your are quite literally facing off against gods, as well as beings above gods.
For more context, the devourer of gods saga of fights go like this:
1. You fight each of the servants as separate bosses:
. Signus-type s
. Storm weaver-type w
. Ceaseless void-type v
2. After all servants are defeated, you are able to fight the DoG(devourer of gods). The DoG fight has two phases(as you probably guessed), and jebaits you with another health bar after the first phase, kinda like the video for universal collapse does.
The roar of the jungle dragon is one of the only calamity songs with lyrics, really hope you enjoy it!
Stained Brutal Calamity also has lyrics

It really is so depressing what happened with DM Dokuro and the fandom around his music. Calamity truly would not hold the place in my heart that it does without his music, and god do I hope he sees that one day. SO many people were so nasty to him during his time working with Calamity, but god. It's beautiful music.
People just can’t let us have good things, can they
I will never get over the ethereal, floating sounding synths in the Devourer of the Gods series songs, especially in the Servants themes.
Just listened to the terraria calamity music box album, I absolutely loved it!
Thank you!
Watching you react to my favorite soundtrack is such a joy
"Tubular bells? check, it is a calamity song"
He gets it now guys, He's one of us...
Remember the chord progression from Scourge of the universe at the breakbeat part (the finishing one).
You will hear it again in Stained, Brutal Calamity. Exactly the same.
Gonna listen for it now, I never knew!
Oh, hello! You weren't lying about your addiction.
That same progression also shows up at the end of Unholy Insurgency, and I believe it's the progression at the beginning of Feral Amalgamation. I believe it can also be heard in the 7/4 bell part in Toxic Wisdom.
It seems to be just a general post-ML boss motif.
@@theforge129 Yeah that one right, but I'm talking about the whole thing. Exactly these all chords from SOTU's breakbeat part are heard in SBC's choir "Ah" part at 6:56 till 7:38.
Not just the 2 ascending and last one descending.
Give it a go, the ones you mentioned are just for these 4 chords being repeated twice usually.
Here's what I exactly mean :)

my favorite moment, you're fighting for your life, the next phase... then... "A GOD DOES NOT FEAR DEATH". Your fight is not over yet, kid.
The dog really has one of the coolest osts in calamity, also, I'm happy that you got to hear the nonstop mix, it connects the songs really well like it's telling a story/ epic battle of sorts.
Something really big here, is that most of the sprites you would have seen in these videos are inaccurate as they’ve almost all been completely remastered. Oh, and the Devourer is getting changed once again so it will have yet another resprite. God they’re pretty sprites. I do believe nonstop mix uses their updated sprites, though.
Sprite changes don't affect the epicness of the music. Doesn't matter to me.
@@StringPlayerGamerOfficial Fair enough!
Please, don't forget about "Inferior fabrications", it is also from calamity, but it is written by Pinpinneon, no dm dokuro
And catastrophic fabrications
I'd rather him do a reaction to the Infernum ost as a whole tbh
Im not sure about that, he already missed nuclear monsoon. Maybe we'll get a special video with other calamity composers?
lets hope that we get to hear it 🙏
It's not from Calamity though. It was originally composed for the normal infernum mechs, but used as a placeholder for the exo mechs until CD Music finishes the actual theme
I loved your reaction the devourers battle theme. You had the same reaction I had when fighting it for the first time. I Truly cannot wait for you to react to both phases of Yharon. Easily the best battle theme in all of terraria. That one puts return to slime and devourers themes to shame with how good it is.
I still think dog is better. Maybe it’s because Yharon’s annoying screeches covered up the music for me, but I stand with dogs music
Also a DoG stan here. His theme just hits different, I'm in awe whenever I listen to it, such a treat. Such masterpiece. ^^
@@musicheaven7868yeah, i personally think the lyrics in Roar of The Jungle Dragon, while a very good callback to Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, don't work as well as that game. it's a lot better when they're sung by an opera in Stained, Brutal Calamity
infernal catharsis is also really good too
@@DizzyDittoMusicworst song in the soundtrack imo it just feels song and repetitive for me
After you get through the regular Calamity music, you might want to check out some of the Calamity Infernum tracks. These were made by the talented PinpinNeon. They made new tracks for some of the regular Terraria bosses that really take them to the next level, as well as the rest of the Calamity bosses that had yet to get a theme.
I really want to see his reaction on that masterpiece (especially the Inferior and Catastrophic Fabrication) since there is no one ever react to the Infernum OST, hope he will do that after calamity OST
royal retaliation my beloved
How underrated the infernum track is brings me to literal tears
infernum music besides inferior fabrications and catastrophic fabrications is kinda mid tbh
Catastrophic fabrications slaps😃
I have listened to these songs several dozens of times, but watching you react to them and play masterfully along with them?
I'm sitting here *sobbing.* It's SO beautiful!
Okay wow so much to unpack here!
Synth oboe in Servants of Scourge you say? Now that's correct :P (jk jk jk idk what instrument it is) 3:22 is great ear candy! I love songs that have a really strong beat/bass while still maintaining a clear melody. It gives me a full stereo experience. Also SoS has more theme changes than SPG has career changes (I'm joking!!)
I would agree with the tasteful combination for Scourge of the Universe. I know not everyone likes music that sends your neurons all over the place. However, I am a fan of it because it incentivizes me to listen again and again and figure out what is being played. Plus I just like the illusioniary feeling that my brain is on fire haha. (Also must look up tarantellas now because I like that part) I love pieces/songs that sound like a whole adventure because it's hard to get bored. Also trying to compose one is a whole different beast that makes you really appreciate works like those of DM Dokuro's.
Video Game Music Box you say? I should check that out
I was 100% jebaited at 17:52 . Also yes I agree DM Dokuro really loves tubular bells! Not complaining at all. It's cool that there's a "signature sound" associated with the tracks because if your music is recognizable it'll spread faster. From my observations of other composers, this "signature sound" also has to be liked by many people for the popularity to actually grow. It's a hard balance to achieve. But one I believe DM Dokuro achieved!
The Nonstop Mix sounds like the player battling a massive headache/migraine in facing off against this annoying enemy for the umpteenth time while also screaming in your head that you can defeat the boss. And each time the enemy "changes form" you have to set a new mantra for yourself. (I believe Terraria is a country...where do you think all your TC fans came from? (JOKING!) ) Also what was that at 37:51!! My jaw dropped!
It's amazing how even the range of the piece can make the music sound very "large" or "small". Obviously instrumentation matters, too, however, like said the extreme arpeggios contributed to a "wide" sound.
Thank you so much for the wonderful and insightful comment BabySploon!
I ain't readin ALL THAT
That's okay! You're never obligated to read comments not meant for you :D @@friendofyours7
The Seahorse Scrutiny's incident was tragic.
At a certain point in calamity, every boss defeated is a mountain climbed. In normal terraria there are maybe 5 stages of progression (before you fight any bosses, after the first major boss, after the final boss of the first half, after the midpoint of the back half, and after the final boss) and terraria is not a short game by any measure.
In calamity every boss after the games normal final boss really feels like you are going even further beyond, the patterns become harder, you get more freedom of movement, fights get longer, and at a certain point the fights really start feeling less like a protagonist claiming impossible odds and feel more like two stubborn gods throwing themselves at eachother until one finally gives up. The devourer of gods is that turning point. It’s a brutally difficult fight that forces you to learn the patterns, but when you do you can feel yourself overcoming this cosmic deity of destruction the feeling is incredible. In large part because of the music which makes these fights feel emotional, feel intimate, feel like you and the boss are standing toe to toe and truly both giving it your all. Defeating the DOG means you are done climbing moutiains, you are overcoming a fixture of reality.
The bells that toll for the bosses eventually change meaning from their familiarity, perhaps they have chosen you as their new champion, perhaps you have wrestled them from the influence of another, or perhaps the bells were yours all along.
Few games achieve the feeling of ascension, of becoming a being of godlike power, of perhaps not even being human anymore. Simply through the tightly crafted boss fights and music. There’s basically no dialogue and no cutscenes, but as the music progresses with you it becomes easy to feel like you the player have worked hard and gotten better and you can feel and hear yourself bending the universe around you. Though these later bosses fight harder than nearly any other, you are their inevitable fate and not the other way around.
The Tubular Bells are used because the ost is. . . Totally Tubular!
. . . I'll see myself out
Church bells: _exist_
DM Dokuro: Hm yes, this is banger
i loved it when i forgot how hard calamity infernum was on my pc's frames and when i spawned DoG i had 2 fps
I've been waiting since the first calamity reaction for this video and I'm so glad it's here! Definitely my favorite songs in the whole soundtrack.
SANITY ZERO! SANITY ZERO! Initiating Universal Collapse.
Oh it's just SO fun whenever you cover a song by following the main melody, but then suddenly break off into a completely original melody
The devourer of gods got that DOG in him.
Sorry, I’ll see myself out.
his reaction to the fakeout in universal collapse is priceless
you were correct with saying that "its like the boss has multiple phases" beacuse this is a nonstop mix of all of the different songs for the diffirent phases of DoG
This has nothingbto do with the music. But can we appreciate this mans hair. The colors are insanely done will, lf its natural you got blessed.
Thank you! My natural color is black hair, I wish I'd have natural red, but artificially colored is the next best thing.
i need that electric violin omg
man, every time I listen to the Nonstop Mix it actually brings me to tears, like if im not mentally prepared for it I get overwhelmed and start dancing and jamming out and tears start leakin out of my eyes and, well
it's my favorite song
I may not listen to it all the time, but it's my favorite song, hands down
only took me 23 years to decide on a favorite, but if I was ever going to choose one, it'd be that
I'm so excited it's finally here! Universal Collapse is my favorite song in all of gaming, and has been since I first discovered it years ago, so much nostalgia :')
I always love when you add your own part with your crazy looking eclectic violin, you’re very skilled! Also, I’d give anything to hear a song like Scourge of the Universe played by a live orchestra lol
The way you analyse calamity tracks and always find some secrets inside of them is amazing. Cant wait to watch your reaction to roar of the jungle dragon and stained brutal calamity❤
I have been waiting for this one for so long! Absolutely definitely my favourite part of the STELLAR Calamity mod soundtrack. But there's more to come, and I'm excited for that too!!!
Lmfao I love how you reacted to the video version of Universal Collapse. The reaction to the intro bait had me laughing
I don't really ever listen to each of the tracks separately and I've never taken the time to sit down and compare the three tracks to the nonstop mix so it was actually really interesting to see just how much is added in it. I always thought it was just the interlude between scourge and universal collapse as well as little connecting bits between the tracks. I never really realised that it adds so much.
"A GOD DOES NOT FEAR DEATH"
i hummed the melodies of all these songs because they have been ingrained in my mind after multiple playthroughs lol
Iirc DM dokuro composed universal collapse within a few hours due to learning about the final phase of that boss right before release
I love the way the three types of Servants of the Scourge represent their respective bosses. The soaring music in type W for the alien apex predator of the skies, Storm Weaver, the heavy drums and bass that seem to suck you in of type V for the permanent portal to an alien dimension, Ceaseless Void, and the mysterious sound of type S for the most mysterious of the Distortion trio, Signus.
THIS is the episode I’ve been waiting for. Also, really glad that you’ve basically kept with the progression order. Some of the tracks in the official order are out of order with progressing through the modpack.
Waiting since Crabulon OST to this day, my favourite Calamity OST! 🤩😆
"The air is getting warmer around you."
YES, I've been waiting for so long to see you listen to the devourer of gods theme!
endless beging for last endless boss, you kill last boss ending game but not the mode. You summon another boss just for dmg numbers to be added to the save file. This music is the best for that.
Servants of the Scourge: Types W, V, S, and D; Scourge of the Universe; and UNIVERSAL COLLAPSE...
The calmer sections breaking up the action provide a _much_ needed breather. There's a great Beat Saber run of the Nonstop mix with chapters saying exactly what the player thought of each section. During the first few slow parts, they complained about it being boring, but was extremely grateful for the later ones due to how demanding the sections around them were.
The other thing is that Servants of the Scourge has an easily noticeable common motif, but I personally feel like it's... incomplete; like it's missing a section. Scourge of the Universe helps feel like a culmination of what came before by completing that motif, and then UNIVERSAL COLLAPSE builds on it further helping it feel like the finale of the entire symphonic suite.
Devourer of Gods: Nonstop mix is easily one of the two contenders for DM Dokuro's Magnum Opus. Probably the only negative thing I can say about it is that it doesn't really have a real ending. It just fades out while it otherwise continues going strong.
The other contender has no such weakness.
The other one is obviously seahorse scrutiny.

I WAS WAITING SO LONG FOR THIS REACTION!! This is absolutely amazing!!

i actually cannot wait for the next calamity video. The last few are genuinely amazing. even compared to the rest of the great soundtrack, the last 5 are even better and are my absolute favourite songs from any game
As a person who didn't know i listened to specifically *your* songs (music boxes) i am very pleased
When you get to the final boss theme (stained, brutal calamity) I recommend pulling up the lyrics and reading along as you listen. The choir is a bit hard to make out in the crazy and chugging beats of DM Dokuro’s composition
Oh I didn't know you reacted to the non stop remix thats awesome its such a good remix I listen to it daily
how am i supposed to focus on beating the devourer of gods when this banger is taking all my attention
"A GOD DOES NOT FEAR LAG"
Dokuro He is a musical genius
Facts
Servants of the Scourge, and it's segments during the nonstop mix, are incredible.
Each boss shares the same first half, and the second half changes depending on which one you are fighting!
Type W (Storm Weaver) is the most similar to the Devourer's own theme, the whole segment being present, because they are of the same species.
Type V (Ceaseless Void) is the most intense and different because the Void is a barely sentient and barely controlled black hole of a sentinel.
Type S (Signus) is the most melodic because it is sentient and intelligent, the most controlled and loyal of the sentinels.
I loved your addition at 16:50! It went really well with the original but added its own spin to it :D
Bluds got the adamantite viola 💀
little fun fact but scourge of the universe is a kinda redo of the song last battle from cave story. dm dokuro made a remix of that song which was a placeholder for the devourer of gods
Ever since i found the crab(Crabulon) video i've been patiently waiting for this wholesome reaction from both these talented individuals. And it was better than expected.
This makes me happy and also sad that this will eventually come to a close. I'll be looking forward to the next releases of the songs that are left.
And with it i also leave a suggestion. If you like hidden gems @stringplayergamer then give the OST from the game "Cyber Shadow" a chance.
You should totally try playing the Calamity mod :D
Don’t torture the man by making him play calamity
@@faeyzaihsanulfikri9975I mean, if he plays only at like expert its fine
You play, I make content.
@@StringPlayerGamerOfficial the joke is that Calamity is an absolute hell-hole to play :>
This is just another variant of "Dark Souls" humor.
About all the chiptune/tubular bells and more pixelated feel to Scourge of the Universe, this is because originally the first track it had way back was a remix(arrangement?) from DM Dokuro from Cave Story, in which he still used the sound font to give it the same feel, but composed completely anew. If you ever feel like hearing what that used to sound like, the specific song the Devourer of Gods had in the beginning was: "Cave Story Arranged - Last Battle" It's also quite amazing. If you listen to it you can hear how heavily it inspires Scourge of the Universe, and it's great.
I absolutely love the part where the string guitar comes in to play the melody. It feels so pure, no excessive extras to hype you for the battle, just the pure feeling of reflecting on the fight and how you have to win.
The part when you get to fight the servants and eventually DoG, is my favorite part of the mod, you can feel the passion, the efforts and the love the devs put in that part, and the OST amplifies all those feelings to the MAX level, you can feel how well made was that part in the mod... This is a true MASTERPIECE
FINNALLY DEVOURER OF GODS NONSTOP MIX LETS GOO
Is incredible the pasion of this songs
So we've got the dragon and then the witch herself left. The three gigantic pieces.
And I think there is also Catastrophes Before the Calamity.
alot of people dont recognize that military march on devour of god themes when they first listen to it
The bells I like to imagine the most powerful and god-like entities you fight in Calamity. And the bells give off that feeling of the presence of a god or god-like entity. Which explains why it becomes so prominent later in the soundtrack. Because you start fighting these god-like entities and their power can be conveyed through the bells. Which some songs I think act as a call or herald to the entity and the louder the bells shows the presence of the god-like being in front of you trying to stop your progress in obtaining victory against them.
Im early for once!
I see he's run into the great God Eater himself - I'll definitely update this post once I'm done watching
EDIT! Oh yeah, Im back, and Im glad that you choset o listen to the nonstop mix - it adds so much to the original, I hardly believed I heard one first before the other.
So, each of the themes matches the creature involved:
Storm Weaver has bells like the DoG itself because they are from the same, god eating race - only its much younger ( not direct relatives tho)
Ceaseless Void is a sentient rip in space time cloaked in armor, its theme first represents that insatiable appetite before showcasing its ability to expell the souls of those it had consumed
Signus is an Eldritch Assassin who tried and failed to kill the DoG, but in turn they became work partners - his theme to me seems to indicate "You're almost there"
The DoG itself is the pinnacle of the famous worm-boss type of creature in Terraria - worms were always looked dwon upon, but the DoG's race was able to absorb the abilities of those they consumed - this is the source of its power, never ending hunger, and other traits that make it such an interesting boss in lore and in game.
The Servants of the Devourer are attracted to the player due to the Player holding a relic they ripped off of Providence (the one with the anime intro boss theme), who they were hunting. Thus each fight is basically your player ambushing them and then using their defeats to lure out their boss.
My favorite thing about the DOG's themes are the callbacks to the placeholder song way back used for the boss - also made by Dokuro, this song was a remix of the theme that plays when you face Balrog in Cave Story (hence the chiptune nature of it). It is also a banger, and you could kinda see the DoG's theme as a spiritual successor when you listen too it.
I like to think of the intro of the song and the second stage as the DoG unveiling itself, as it usually travels within its own pocket dimension before ripping a hole into the main realm to fight its opponent - or take them back with it.
Truely one of the bosses ever
LETS GOOO, He did do the nonstop mix. my request was seen!!! tysm
no it wasnt, it is part of the devourer of gods theme. your request did jack shit
Did you know that: This song was made about a week after this brand new change to the Devourer of Gods, in which it is given a final form, whipped this up within mere HOURS of this new information
Can't wait for 'Roar of the Jungle Dragon!' Maybe try listening to Universal Collapse With Lyrics a fan made song by 'Noah Green' maybe bolth The Regular and the Remastered!
Listen to The Binding of Isaac OST's or Devil May Cry 3 or 5 maybe even MGRR (metal gear rising revengace)
soothing interesting I noticed when you were listing to the servants of the scourge, is that in the non-stop mix the servants themes are a bit faster than this video!
Yes! The reaction video to the DOG gang! Like a late birthday gift, This was amazing!💖
Great upload to start my morning with!
STUNLOCKED :O ur titles are always so nice haha
Have loved all the reactions thus far, only one small gripe is that the video preview for the source music in the top right corner isn't in sync. For Devourer of Gods Non-Stop mix and some of the not yet listened to songs, it would be better to have it sync'd correctly, as it labels in the video each segment. Keep up the amazing work, happy to see Dokuro's work getting so much love!
Playing my part in the "Don't forget Interior Fabrications (And other non-dokuro tracks)!" rally!
I hope he reacts to the Epic Battle Fantasy music because the organ play is insane for As the shadow and Blaze of Iris. It is by far the best music I have ever seen out of any flash game.
ebf seen and acknowledged, strongly agree
God, you can just tell that DM Dokuro poured his heart and SOUL into this soundtrack
dm dokuro really is a musical genius and this video like the others really helps us appreciate how much so thank you for that!
Love your reactions
I know that the entire soundtrack has been recorded already, but whilst reviewing the videos, focus on yharim's motif, it will become much more apparent in the other songs (can be heard at 40:12 to 40:15)
I am hyped for his reaction to "Roar of the Jungle Dragon". Nonetheless, great video man!
