The reason the song from 12:45 and out feels so raw compared to the rest of the song is because when writing this song, they told Casey the song only had to be about 7 minutes or so (I don't remember exactly what they said specifically, all I remember was that he was allowed to end the song at that point), but because he assumed this would be his last time making music for DMC, he decided to go all out for the ending, adding an extra 2 or so minutes of pure, raw emotion as a love letter to the DMC franchise

[@evodolka]

That's just awesome, shows they had an absolute blast working on it

[@tipsy634]

That's right. The music doesnt play for long ingame but with all the transitions and dynamism, they need to be quite long. So they would need about 7 minutes. Then Casey took it to the next level! They responded by having it be the final boss music in the Vergil DLC.

Fun fact, Casey Edwards was told he couldn't use guitars at all, only for the chorus toward the end. So he had to improvise and use synthesizers to make the heavy parts and everything before. Another fun fact too, Casey Edwards studied under Mick Gordon, the composer of the DOOM Soundtrack for the modern games. Which is why it has a similar feel. Oh and Bury the Light shares chord progression with Devil Trigger which is top notch.

[@phinix473]

well he did make devil trigger so that isn't surprising he knows it, didn't know he trained under Mick, that makes so much sense.

[@winn3975]

This isnt true. There are plenty of guitars before the final chorus, especially in the bass and faint countermelody.

[@phinix473]

The wild thing is that up to 12:45, it's all synth. The Devs told the music writers not to have guitars. That's why the last part is so raw, he added electric guitar as a personal omage. Vergil is one of his favourite characters ever and you can feel it. The passion slaps so god damn hard.

[@andylawlzz]

I dunno why people misconstrue this point so often. there's still electric guitar in the chorus, and there's acoustic guitars during the verses. the restriction was no electric guitars outside of the chorus, and they later made the exception for the ending section.

The first big vocal entrance made my jaw freaking DROP! As someone who loves melodies, I appreciate a simple percussion that can drive the rhythm/enhance the music without sounding boring. The meter changes, jumps, and key changes are all EPIC and really make this song so unique! Okay 12:44 absolutely blew my mind!! I hadn't thought of how space in a melody can make it more musical. Then again, music tells a story and who makes stories? Humans. And what do humans do? Breathe. So it checks out! This is definitely the type of music I LOVE to listen to when I need high energy that's also "focused".

The drummer for this song is Anup Sastry, who is an insanely talented dude. He's got such a deep pocket, but is also very tasteful with his fills. One thing to also mention is that this was mixed by Adam "Nolly" Getgood, who is one of the greatest rock and metal sound engineers of our time. He's incredibly smart and meticulous with his craft. He's done a bunch of other work, but most notably is one of the minds behind Periphery's sound, as well as they're former bass player. There was a lot of talent that went onto this track, including Victor and Casey. Overall this is one of the greatest video game compositions of all time.

The thing about dmc 5 soundtrack is that it progresses based on your style rank. For example this song plays build up (that is not in the version you are listening to) on A rank and then chorus variation on S rank and it's so good

[@DianaProudmoore]

But Vergil can skip from no style to SSS in a span of 3 seconds, so you had to slow yourself down just to listen to it properly~

I personally put a dmc Spotify playlist when I play bloody Palace, listening to the chorus every wave gets really annoying,

[@taktika4764]

@@jimbocraggins there is a common misconception about this actually. SS and SSS ranks do not influence the music in any way. It plays either i am the storm or forsakened i am awakened parts when you reach S. If you keep S rank up for long it will eventually get to the bury the light deep within part. After that part it loops back to i am the storm or forsakened if you still have S rank

With Bury the light you can imagine the entrance of the main antagonist (in this case Vergil) at the start then as the "fight" or music progresses it gets more and more intense with breaks in between, until you reach the massive climax near the end.

I only just found your channel but your passion for music and actually enjoying what your listening too while dissecting it is very admirable!

It's probably just because it sounds cooler to have the song fade away instead of an abrupt end, but I like this thought more. Makes it more poetic/symbolic or something.

You should really do a reaction video on the Frostpunk soundtrack. The Game is about surviving in an apocolyptic winter set in the 1800s as the last city on earth. I recommend listening to 'the city must survive' from the main game, to 'the last autumn' and the 'on the edge' theme from the two dlc's. It's entirely orchestral, and my personal favourite soundtrack of all time. I always love watching these reaction videos, because I love learning about what makes the music I listen to so captivating.

You need to make a full version including your violin skills because dayum that section was insane

Ever since DMC5 released Vergil as a playable character, this song has been such a freaking banger every single time, even mentioning Vergil automatically plays this song plus The song encapsulates Vergil'a childhood and his pursue of power in exchange of abandoning his humanity in hopes of getting it since deep inside he's afraid of getting hurt or someone getting hurt and because of him, he now is on a quest to search for power that can truly surpass Sparda (Vergil's father) and be able to stand up against the challenges before him, may it be demons, angels or even Dante (his twin brother) One thing's for sure, the song itself is an empowering feeling yet hiding a sad, lonely secret that only Vergil keeps inside

You KNOW a guitarist is at the peak of talent when they give you such a clean, precise solo and you can feel their joy at playing and they just take their time to just put pure melody into our ears. It's my favourite part of the song and it's what inspired me to learn to play. It's not flashy, it's not hardcore or over the top, it's just.... amazing talented play that KNOW he enjoyed performing.

OH MY GOD, that violin just felt like it could fit in the original song. That's so nice to hear. Thank you for the small plugin

Seeing as you are taking suggestions! I would absolutely ADORE a look at the music from the game “Touhou: Luna Nights”, it is not an official touhou title but it is officially recognized by ZUN and has some really fun remakes of classic themes from EOSD which is the game Luna Nights is based apon! It is byfar one of my favorite games and is a total love letter to the franchise its based on!

We can all always use more Touhou music!

I really loved your reaction to Bury the Light. This is, in my opinion, one of the best pieces of music ever written, and you listened and reacted so genuinely and sincerely. Your analogy of the "music needs to breathe" was perfect!

Bury the Light is simply one of the best pieces of music from a video game. It really just hits the soul, that’s the best way I can describe it.
