Remember how gaming was when you were a little kid? Laughing when you try dumb shit out, not knowing what you’re doing but having a blast, being absorbed in the world, spending all day looking forward to getting home to play and when everything seemed full of mystery and excitement? This is the first game in years that gave me that feeling back. I thought I’d never experience it again. What a beautiful thing they’ve created here.

[@FitzroyFracas]

Im back like I'm eating orange crush freezies in a basement and playing oblivion again. It's so GOOD!

[@yuuya2111]

Exactly! It's been more than 10 years since I felt that way... I'm 33 with a library of 30+ games I barely touched. BG3 made me fall in love with RPG again, for a month almost everyday I sit in my office chair, daydreaming about the moment I get home, turn on the PC to get lost in Faerun again... Thank you Larian 😢😢😢

[@AdventfatherGaming]

It struck me in the character creation menu that I was having a moment that I hadn’t had since I first picked up Dragon Age Origins. You summed up that feeling perfectly.

[@meawrion]

You said it all!

[@droidgeist]

DIVINE. People are gonna have such fond memories of this game in 20-30 years time, and this song will be a big part of that magic.

[@FabioGiorgio1]

You are right. Found out this gem yesterday, absolutely magical. Glad it is on spotify, saved forever.

[@mattTd7]

100%! Reminds me of how Skyrim stuck with me for so long. BG3 will be (perhaps already is?) the next entry into legendary gaming

[@aethertag1530]

It gives me really similar vibes to Stones from the old Ultima games, which was also a camp/rest scene theme that ended up becoming linked to it almost more than the main titles.

Man Borislav Slavov is so underrated. Divinity fans know this guy's a hidden gem

[@Sylfposts]

Fr, he has such a recognizable style. Like, I know it's BG3 soundtrack, but when I listen to this and close my eyes I just see my Undead walking Rivellon with Fane.

[@drunkdonkeydude]

When this hits after a soul-crushing, introspective, and intimate scene with a companion - and overtakes the campsite, even when youre set up in a cold hostile place like the Underdark... It hits so good.

THE MOST BEAUTIFUL TRACK of an exceptionally beautiful music score. WHY IS THIS VERSION NOT IN SPOTIFY/APPLE MUSIC? 😭

[@viciousrage5548]

I’ve just been sitting on my ps5 screen with this in the background before I open the game. I love the calmness of it.

[@lorenzocozza1978]

Lyrics: (start singing at 0:14) Lace your heart with mine Let your sleeping soul take flight Take me through the night Down down down by the river Down down down by the river Hanging moon in fog Mists will lead where you belong Sweep me off my feet Down down down by the river Down down down by the river Down down down by the river Inky embers Swirl and dance Just leap the flames to take a chance To be with me tonight Take my hand And hold it tight 'Cause you and I are everywhere The night is young We're going down down down by the river Down down down by the river Down down down by the river Don't wake me up Just leave me there dreaming

this theme is so good

[@Enzevil]

I literally searched for this version yesterday, glad it's up. It's too damn beautiful, God's work as always Boris!

[@Varyalover]

Same boat, I was just looking yesterday!

[@КряКря-щ9ю]

I've been wanting to hear an instrumental version of this song for a long time. I even cut the vocals from the song myself. In general, I want more versions of this magical song.

[@SpiritedPiscean]

This really hit hard after a certain scene in act 2 with Karlach romance - after finding out sad news but then being thrown into a wonderful romantic and heartfelt / poignant scene Love it ❤

[@crunchythedragon]

Alright Gale what’s this magic you wanted to sho-…….I see.

[@moliza1330]

LMAAAAOOO

[@TheHungerGamesByeRue]

HELP my honest reaction

[@boopthesnoot719]

Isn't this playing while you're creating your character? I was so distracted by the music so many times that I just stopped and stared into the void 😄

[@Trealop]

And I believe in most romance scenes

[@artisan3286]

This is soo beautiful to listen to during a midnight shift. wow I’m so glad I get to exist the same time as you and your music

[@EthanAldridge]

Spent an hour trying to figure out how to kill one guy in a room full of enemies, and the loot wasn’t even worth it. Any other game I’d feel like that was so much time wasted for nothing, but with this incredible work of art, I didn’t, I honestly just loved the fact that I got to be as creative as I wanted to, everything was at my disposal, and how every option I tried, no matter if it failed or not, had a different outcome. This game is truly a masterpiece of our time.

[@kassraniavarani9927]

I feel like a child again, long time since I feel the same way, long time since hear good music, you melt my heart away...and I am happy find music from composer channel

[@duckinator2951]

I shed a tear when I didn't see any new tracks released at the last panel from hell. Then I downloaded the patch and heard this and have been waiting for the track to release ever since! Thank you Borislav, you and your creations are awesome

[@KostiaKovalchuk]

Masterpiece, sadly this instrumental version is not on spotify, any chances we'll get it there?

[@Ponders11]

Борислав,вы один из самых лучших игровых композиторов на данный момент. Настоящая живая легенда. Обожаю ваш саундтрек к DOS 2 и жду не дождусь послушать больше ваших потрясающих работ в Baldur's gate 3!

[@alexfromrussia4393]

Он ещё и для Crysis 2 и 3 красивые саундтреки написал. С этих игр у меня и началось знакомство с творчеством Борислава

[@rosvall216]

End your aggresions in Ukraine and play more BG3 blyät!

[@xser4321]

Много благодяря. Като начинаещ китарист се опитвах да хвана акордите на песента но вокалите ме объркваха. Така само с инструментала е много по-лесно!

[@reqb8595]

Такая аккуратная и душевная музыка. Всегда даёт вдохновение

[@Nirraart]

Как вы точно дали определение - "аккуратная"! Именно такая!

[@RaeTheSpoonyBard]

This is easily my favorite BG3 track thus far so thank you for uploading it. It's especially nice to hear male vocals being utilized since they can be just as enchanting and ethereal as female vocals and the male voice fading in and out of this is amazing. (Makes me want to know what the Harpy's lure would sound like hummed by this male vocal *sigh*) Anyways, you're a talented man, Boris, and I'm so happy to have discovered your music.

[@TwinIonEngines]

Your music gives me the perfect sense of adventurous melancholy. A wondrous world to explore, decisions to make, fates to change.... and the impact of loss and hardship. It's all beautifully encapsulated, and makes the world so much more believable and beloved.

[@astrea4020]

I’m holding off on playing the new patches and am waiting for the full game to release but I will always be here for new ost additions.

[@JimNZ]

Borislav... beautiful piece!!! thank you so much for your art.

[@lsthero5863]

I love the part where it goes "35 years old i am divorced and i live in a van down by the river". A true work of art xD

[@DebbyMargMusic]

Wow. I love this song so much.... ❤️

[@maxbrestable]

Such a gentle yet powerful piece. Love the recurring variations throughout the game. Well done.

[@radiantblog]

The feels are killing me. I have so many ideas what will happened and the music is sooo emotional, so … I lack the words to express to you what I feel! ❤

[@claverdiere91]

I can't wait to experience this glorious masterpiece

[@Karmychan]

Mr. Slavov, your music is always so beautiful and enchanting.😍 A pleasure for the ears and the mind ! I also loved the Divinity 2 soundtrack which is also amazing. Thank you for all this 😊

This was definitely the most memorable exploration theme for most of act 1.

[@MizuMing]

Yes, new music update! ❤️

[@thedreamingfairy6801]

Been waiting for that track for so long ! Nothing could bring me more joy today ! Thank you so much ! 😍❤

Probably first main character in game was 1 level wizard with epic backstory

[@Shamus1019]

Mr. Borislav, I've never been so mesmerized by a sound track that I instantly bought the game, I knew nothing about baulders gate 3, but then I played the open beta, and created my character, and fell in love with the world you help create

[@divinezeisu5470]

I've listened to this for 2 days straight on loop now, still not sick of it, it's such a beautiful song to sleep or bask to, I'll have to listen to this until I get the game itself cause my hype is that great! :3

I remember playing this early in early access with friends and this song was on repeat for like an hour because we were all creating characters and one of us couldnt decide (it wasnt me)... this song has been permanently in my skull since 2021.

this song is amazing. just heard it for the first time today and it really adds a whole new appreciate for the game as a whole for me

Opening up this game for the first time and hearing this song as I made my character was such a trip. I felt like I could actively FEEL my neurons working overtime to make this something I would feel nostalgic over in a few years' time. Am I the only one who felt like that?
