Music Producer SHOCKED by Castle Crashers OST (Necromancer/Painter+)

[@dregmek]

Castle crashers is that type of 90's to early 2010's new grounds whimsy in its humor and music

[@RikouHogashi]

Good Ole NG humor and style right here with an Epic and Funny in Harmony OST

[@dakurisu3431]

That's because it was! Behemoth studios was made by the maker of New Grounds among other very popular artists of the time!

[@MrMajin_]

CASTLE CRAHSERS? YOU? YOU REACT TO CASTLE CRASHERS? AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA listen to the snow, lava and forest world themes and the ninja themes please this game is absolutely beautiful 🙏

[@drunkonsuccess779]

Fun fact: the Castle Crashers OST was a massive collaborative effort among NewGrounds, the site where the game was first hosted. Multiple big names of that place at the time came together to donate their time and music to the project.

Castle Crashers has one of the best sleeper OSTs out there. You don't often think about it, but when you look at the tracks they're spectacular.

[@FallenA1]

Castle Crashers is one those games where I can always go back to it anytime I need a good stress relief. Its music is seriously one of the best ost’s in gaming to me.

[@LokiThePug]

13:59 The vibe castle crashers has with this song literally is unmatched because this part plays when the boss is playing the organ that it’s literally chugging bombs at you

[@Reckerless]

This video is awesome!!! I'm curious, how did you avoid any copyright as i struggle with it when using Castle Crashers music!

[@LionmightOfficial]

Good old fashioned dispute. Video was uploaded back in May 2024 unlisted.

[@Reckerless]

[@LionmightOfficial]

Good luck!

[@danielvandersloot543]

I've had a bunch of edits with castle crashers music stay up on my 14 year old channel without a single hitch, might just be really unlucky lmfao. Some of them are literally just a video with the full painter boss music under it

[@d0ps1g]

"Race around the world" and "Space pirates" are made by Waterflame (my favourite musician). Thanks for listening these tracks and reacting on them.

[@TheDevourerOfGods]

Waterflame is my goat

WAIT WHAT ?! You're telling me the legend that made the Castle Crasher OST is ALSO the legend that made Glorious Morning, the song in Age of War, the most legendary Flash Game of all time ?! I think that's too much legendary stuff for me to handle...

[@RF-Ataraxia]

Feels like half of the OST was made by Waterflame!

[@doogletmu2319]

techock was pretty iconic for the giant troll part

[@TheCreepypro]

man what a blast from the past this is! i remember playing this with my friends back in the day and enjoying the music but I don't remember it being this good! so glad to hear it here once again and I am grateful to those who requested it as well as diwa for taking the time to do a video!

[@Rilas711]

Oh my God. The violin over the theme sounds so good!

[@WolfClaw0812]

Castle Crashers is my childhood glad you enjoy its music. You playing along with the Necromancer theme just made my day ❤😁 and pretty much all the song's you listended to from the soundtrack

[@zero9462]

Im SO happy you reacted to this game, I have some ideas! Corn/Catfish boss | Jumper | Creepy Frog | Mud Holes | Snow World and Rapids Ride

[@alexandercox9004]

Till Death Do You Part is by far my favorite song in the soundtrack, and it is the main reason why the Groom was always my favorite boss, despite him being hated by pretty much everyone else. The song is just so dang fire!!!

[@theshadynorwegian6036]

It being a twisted wedding march that turns into a final battle vibe makes perfect sense since its a twisted wedding that results in a big battle between two armies. The fact he plays the organ himself as well, and that it is a weapon that shoots bombs is… well, it’s straight out of warhammer 40k and the adepta sororitas.

[@therealvolt42re]

@@theshadynorwegian6036 Castle Crashers is so brilliantly creative, there will never be another game like it.

[@Doppler_the_Protogen]

I came to this video JUST to see Till Death Do You Part, it's by far my favorite selection from this OST. Even funner to actually play that snare line because DAMN

[@zynzium]

NEVER EXPECTED HIM TO REACT TO THIS REACT TO MADNESS COMBAT/MADNESS PROJECT NEXUS OST TOO

[@srjosa8349]

YEAH Project nexus has such a gorgeous ost

[@_catto.]

THIS

[@zynzium]

@_catto. we shall spread the AAHW propaganda evenly across his channel now hehehe

[@ArtZy08]

race around the world is used as the "Level Complete!" song, so its very upbeat and ecstatic.

[@ligeirinhogameplay]

No way he actually did it!!! Thank you for attending to our request! Caste Crashers ost is really good, glad that you actually reacted to it.

[@PunkDisciple23]

Hey Diwa glad you finally got to Castle Crashers. Forest (called Jumper in game files) is my favorite theme from this mainly because of its humorous and whimsical sound. Another series that has great music for you to look into is Epic Battle Fantasy. Mainly the 3rd game but 4 and 5 also have some good ones.

[@JamesDavis-iz1jz]

You should definitely listen to Dark Skies, Mudholes, and Jumper from Castle Crashers as well. Those 3 (along with Simple Sight) are my favorite tracks from the whole OST.

[@rambu3013]

6:40 Race around the world is my JAM

[@theshadynorwegian6036]

Race to the edge of the world really just captures the frantic comedic race, because while you’re fighting alongside your friends, it’s also a competition. And then it comes back down to the more relaxed part to remind you you’re still friends.

[@cheesy_macz2579]

PLEASE DO MORE PLEASE PLEASE I LOVE THE CASTLE CRASHERS SOUNTRACK, winter bliss is my absolute favorite

[@AdamsDisownedJack]

Out of all the games, i wasn't expecting him to react to this classic game.

[@comradebusman3]

Oh man, the castle crashers OST has so many great tracks! I'd also recommend checking out "Jumper", "Ninja Pirate Battle", "Barracks Song", "War Machine", and "Spanish Waltz"! Those are my personal favorites (in no particular order)

[@UnkleKlumsy1353]

Castle crashers has some lovely music, though in game I was always too busy button smashing my way to victory to truly appreciate it. Battleblock theatre is another of Behemoth's games that has some great music as well

[@GrimCreeper1179]

I love getting to not only watch someone's first reaction to these songs, but also a person who can actually appreciate the music. Far to many people just view it as background noise, when the music is a giant part of the story telling.

[@fossymanplays]

I still go back and play this every through months, great to see you covering it! :)

[@andycrisis971]

castle crashers is some of the first video game music I can remember hearing, but especially the main theme definitely part of why I grew up interested in music.

[@kaihookins3273]

Please Listen To Creo! Preferably One Of These Songs: 1. Nautilus 2. Atmosphere 3. Challenger 4. Dimension 5. Enigma 6. Dune This Is Just A List Of My Favorites Personally But If You Want To Please Listen To More Music Of His! He Makes Some Really Good Instrumental Music!

[@ElTaitronAnim]

Not a game I ever played or knew anything about, but I really like the songs that were included here, along with your added violin. I also really appreciated your commentary on what instruments or parts were interesting and why; it felt more in-depth than usual. Thanks for the video :)

[@blzuczz]

man i LOVE the music. Its so goofy and perfect. ive been hyper-fixated on this game for a LONG time.

[@TempoGeko]

castle crashers was my childhood and gave me my love for classical music

[@DereckLunar]

Unexpected gem that came out in the 2010's straight from the guys at Newgrounds at the time. If you had a PS3 or an 360 at the time and wanted a good arcade game to play with your buddies, it was the best bet.

[@MrBiggyfoot69]

My cousin introduced me to Castle Crashers when I was younger and I miss playing it with him. We would do some weird system where we'd build ourself up on the the Barbarian(been awhile, think that's his name) and would get through the first other missions with ease. Not to mention we'd go back to that boss if we needed money. It was usually a 4 to 6 hit on him and he's dead. So no resources wasted

[@ironmaiden3166]

9:48 "MY ART WILL BE YOUR DEMISE"

[@derokomaha]

This is so out of no where what. I've always wanted to see a reaction of the necromance theme and your the first one thank you so much for giving this game a chance.

[@sqoonspring7851]

PLEASE, do some more of castle crashers

[@dioscelto]

One of my favorite games of all time! Been playing it since I was a kid. Such a cool game to see you talk about!

[@netherslayer3561]

Oh man, the nostalgia hits hard... and the music is just as impressive as I remember. It'd be awesome if you could react to the Hades OST next!

[@Zenoferrum]

2:50 you were double right. You fight with AND against each other. You play missions together, fight in the areas around the map and you fight to the death over princesses. Easily one of the best "simple" games ever made imo.

[@bronx9]

I can tell you really feel the music especially in 4 brave champions, it truly is an honor to see you react to the ost of one of my favorite games

[@Urani_um]

Wow this game is my childhood, very nostalgic!

[@MozzarellaWizard]

Whenever I get to the Necromancer fight in a speedrun, I turn up the music volume for the VIBES

[@negible]

I watched you because your undertale videos, and NOW ITS CASTLE CRASHERS?! BEST DAY EVER AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[@BiggEBoBo]

Would love to see you react to Winter Bliss, Vain Star, Dark Skies or Landfall. Those are my favorites from this game.

[@fastvelocitor]

Yesss! Winter Bliss is absolutely beautiful, especially with the violin in the middle; it's my favorite song in the entire game. It's a shame it only plays three times though, and *two of those* are entrance screens.

[@mrdannyboy7088]

Howdy, yoh! i was wondering if you could make a Madness combat video My sugestions: Cheshyre - Madness Combat 10 Cheshyre - Madness Combat 9 Cheshyre - Madness Combat 6.5 and theres also a videogame called MADNESS Project Nexus 2 My sugestions: Cheshyre - Dandy Cheshyre - Bass Thrombosis Locknar - Blood Son Locknar - Brimstone i hope do you read me :'3

[@Maximum-Narezki]

WE NEED to see his reaction to Chaoz Japan

[@MansurPG]

the music was so good that even music producer started playing along

[@Xperant]

You played the violin really well to these melodies

[@NINJAfries07]

I had a lot of fun playing through this game with friends when I was younger, and I still have fun listening to the music from time to time.

[@TheDevourerOfGods]

Castle Crashers and Battleblock Theater made my childhood. I'd love to see more episodes!

[@just4_star]

If Castle Crashers was possible, then Madness Combat can be a possibility. My suggestions: Madness 12 Madness 10 Madness 6.5 Some from the game MADNESS Project Nexus: Dandy Aahw Murder Room The 80's Callback

[@Monomyth_studios]

If you do another one of these videos, i SERIOUSLY suggest going over "Factory", "Archetype", and "Rage of The Champions"

[@seasick_diver4788]

Dude! I first started that game in like 2017. Holy crap. I cant believe you are reacting to this amazing series.

[@SoullessNazzerin]

[@trigger2009]

You REALLY should listen to "chaos in japan". Actually one of the best tracks in the game

[@horacioherejia40000]

If you liked the Castle Crashers ost, you should react to Battleblock Theater soundtracks too, there are very good songs

[@paperverp]

Castle crashes is possibly one of the most impactful games when it comes to indie stuff on consoles. If I may request a video I would really like to see a video on “omega strikers” the game is quite underrated, especially its ost

[@fironmaplez]

It's weird that yesterday I played Castle Crashers and you uploaded a music reaction of Castle Crashers.

[@itskyaru2404]

The world doesn’t know how badly I need him to listen to and try the Sea of Thieves soundtrack, especially the rise of the Reapers soundtrack. Just as much as I grew up with Castle Crashers, Alien Hominid, and Battleblock on 360

[@procrastinatordave]

I'd recommend the Pit People OST, another game by the same devs as Castle Crashers. It's good and has a simuler style/vibe to the Castle Crashers soundtrack

[@The_CodFish69]

This is such a blast of the past wow it’s been about a decade since I played this game.

[@Tea99735]

12:58 I need an extension of this NOW!!!

[@RiddleAnim]

Four Brave Champions: By David Orr. The man's a Newgrounds legend,making some absolute *atomic* orchestral pieces,especially in Sinjid and Sonny. His style is instantly recognizable by people familiar with his other work,and the song is an amazing pick for the game's main theme. Simple Sight: By Piercing Lazer/Real Faction. The only song of theirs that I know... and it's an absolute *BANGER.* It's so unlike everything else on the Castle Crashers OST,but it somehow fits in with the Necromancer boss in question. And boy howdy,ain't that fight intense and long. Race Around the World: By Waterflame. This delightful tune plays whenever you win a level after opening up the final loot chest,a perfect companion to a moment of absolute victory,since,in multiplayer,the players need to fight over the chest. Waterflame's style is best described as *insanely versatile.* If I had to guess,he wrote around 80-90% of the game's OST,and you'd be hard-pressed to figure that out. He even has a channel here on KZbin! The Show: Also by Waterflame! The Painter is a particularly *zany* boss,constantly moving around and doing Newgrounds' typical surrealist nonsense as a boss gimmick and general characterization. 'Till Death do I Impart: By MaestroRage, He very intentionally built on the Wedding March,because the boss is a groom... *At the altar.* Space Pirates: Another Waterflame piece! Hilariously,this track plays in a dense forest level,where the primary enemies are forest bandits. And,somehow,it fits.

[@hypo7351]

That third song is played after missions, so it is fitting it starts off chaotic before slowing down as the players take a small break to see stats, level up, etc

[@otamatonefan8996]

Necroancer's theme absolutely has Galacta Knight vibes at the first part, even the intro is like Galacta Knight's phase 2 in Kirby Planet Robobot.

[@chasingdreamsSFM]

Damn the nostalgia just hit me I remember playing it on my old Xbox 360 like at 16 or atleast 14 at best... I can still imagine playing it endlessly

The song has lyrics you gotta watch that cover version. Lurking in the shadows Do you see a sudden movement? The tricks your mind plays on you Might not be just an illusion Noises, scratches on the wall Do you think you are ready? For once you step into these halls You're in the beast's belly! Try, and try again to escape your fate But once you drop dead, your body's mine to take Rise and live again, the biblical call Rotting mind and flesh, moving as my thrall Don't you want to see what happens when you die? Would your mind know, or be in an afterlife? Trapped inside a hell that I will fabricate? As I enchant your body to complete my evil ways? Welcome to the palace of the Necromancer Stepping over corpses that they got their hands on Abandon all your hope before you try to enter 'cause one simple step can mean you meet your end here Hope is an illusion you try to cling to As you watch your certain fate loom before you. Backed against the wall you find you've no place to run So enjoy the show! And try to have fun! More fresh souls to add to my pot Line up now, while your body's still hot! Feel the burn of the lighting strike Bow down in front of your master's might! Do you feel the worms crawling 'round Getting a taste before they chow down. Your fresh flesh feels ripe for the take The bugs in your brain gonna feast for days Try, and try again to escape your fate (Necromancer!)
