ludwig's theme perfectly captures the vibe of a monster becoming a man again, to challenge you as an equal instead of as a beast to be hunted

Doesn’t help that you get kidnapped to that area after a death which makes you think you did something wrong, and the fact that it’s the only time you really get background music in any area. Oh and the area itself is freaky as hell with zombie women ripping your eyes out to try to spare you from the horror ahead

Ludwig's theme is a masterpiece. He's a mad creature, a shambling mess of body parts with legs where there shouldn't be legs and FAR TOO MANY EYES. The music reflects his mental state, with the first half somewhat reminding me of trying to start a car with a dead battery, starting to build something but immediately dropping it and starting something else. In the second half the instrumentation cuts through the chaos and indecisiveness of the first half, gaining a LOT of energy but also a lot of structure.

Hail the Nightmare is freaky because it's the only environmental music of the whole game (well despite the HUB), because though you don't find the source, it's implied it's actually continuously sung by some people in the city you wander in. Depending where you are in the area, it's louder or quieter if I remember. And later, when everyone is apparently dead or morphed into hideous flesh-masses in the city, it's quiet.

If I remember correctly, Upper Cathedral Ward also has environmental music.

It is called an intradiegetic media, meaning it is an actual part of the narration so it is actually sings by (here unseen) characters present in-game. And once translated, the Latin lyrics are foreshadowin (spoiler down) To sum up, when you hear the choir (of Mensis), they're in the middle of their ritual in the real world. When you kill Vacuous Rom and see the giant Blood Moon on the lake, it's like you've gone "through the other side of the mirror" because the School of Mensis succeded in dragging the place into the Great Ones Nightmare.

Hail the Nightmare is pretty unsettling, because in-game it is not played as-is. It has a muffled effect that changes whether you're indoors or outdoors in the area it is played in. That makes it appear like it's coming from somewhere within the game and not just being used as ambiance

The moonlit melody track plays in your hub area which is basically your safe haven from the horrors of the rest of the game.
@PhycoKruskАй бұрын
No, that's the Hunter's Refuge. Moonlit Melody is the song that plays when you first see Queen Yharnam after defeating Rom. In my opinion, it's one of the most unsettling tracks in the game because for as serene and meditative as it sounds, it plays as the blood moon rises, and the terrible situation in the city of Yharnam becomes even more dire. A lullaby to herald your darkest hour becoming even darker, as the sun sets for the last time, and the true *Nightmare* begins.

I've recently realised how the time signature says things with Luswig's soundtrack. In the accursed section its 4 beats for the soundtrack of just another beast to be slaughtered, but as soon as Ludwig gets the Holy Moonlight Sword and regains his self awareness it changes to 3 beats as if you fight him properly it can best be described as a waltz. A much more refined fight.

The first song plays in the only combat area in the game with a bgm, it's really foreboding when you arrive there. For context, songs play basically only on bosses, otherwise there is no bgm.

Ludwig perfectly encapsulates a fight against an enemy that you feel bad defeating, but you want him to have a glorious and honorable death at the same time. You’re even given a chance to lie to him after the fight and tell him that what he did mattered.

I was gonna say in the 3rd song the choir was singing in latin as a fun side note. Loved your reaction to this, please do more FromSoft game songs if you can youd be really surprised. It doesnt have to be bloodborne but they have great soundtracks too but Dark Souls series like Dark Souls 3 and Elden Ring have one of the best soundtracks in gaming. I absolutely recommend checking some soundtracks out if you can thank you for this video 😊

The song “fist bump” is about the fact that without friends you won’t succeed and this song is completely opposed to the next song “infinite” this song is the main theme of the new antagonist, which says that even if you are with friends and have the courage to move mountains, but if you are yourself you have no idea why your friends need you

“Hail the Nightmare” is so scary and always creeps me out. This game has no music other than the “bosses” so the whole game you explore in silence with only the sound of the beasts and enemies. But the only place in the game where you hear an ambient music is when you wake up in cell after you were kidnapped and this music is suddenly the only thing you hear 😂 I literally stopped playing when i heard it shitting my pants i was searching for a safe place because it’s genuinely the scariest thing i've ever experienced in video games for a long time.

Can you believe that this soundtrack lost to Mario? Unfortunately, I can't remember what it was but I think it was 2015 or 2016. It's possible that this is because Witcher III came out at the same time. If Witcher had combat like Bloodborne? It would have been a 9/10 game.
