Return to Monkey Island - LeChucks Theme (DK's Musicbox Cover)

Ron Gilbert told me...
(Composed by Flair Gorey)

[@michaspecht]

This is the second best cover of Le Chuck's Theme I've ever heard!

[@dksmusicbox1371]

Ahh haha. Thank You.

[@Thyphoon]

what'is the first? 😉

[@michaspecht]

@@Thyphoon What I was trying to say is that this is the first best cover of Le Chuck's Theme I've ever heard. 🥳

[@pauloakden3201]

Five reasons why this is the greatest VGM channel on YT. 1. They highlight the strength of the original compositions so well. 2. They are really well shot and edited. 3. An amazing collection of instruments! That hammond, the Juno, its all great stuff. 4. Obviously, this guy can play. The understanding that these keyed instruments require different skills to play. A piano is different to a moog, is different to a hammond, and DK is a master of all of these. 5. Most importantly, the skill of arrangement of these songs. Dire dire docks still blows my mind, its just incredible. Love this channel.

[@dksmusicbox1371]

Thank you.

[@The_RedVIII]

Dude, I was already worried you stopped doing this. Glad you're back. Hope there will be more in the future. :)

[@oliviadrinkwine1411]

Same honestly

[@lylouf8900]

I was there too

[@jonathanstark9147]

Me too!

[@florianb1022]

The mix between Lechucks and Kate's themes is awesome !

[@Aycheffe]

As a hobbyist keyboardist, a professional drummer, and huge monkey island fan, this video had me on the precipice of tears. Thank you for making this.

[@romaosantos6352]

I think this is the coolest version of Lechuck's theme I have ever heard, and that's saying something

[@brankogredelj6153]

great stuff all around, amazing and entirely fitting sound choices ❤

[@ashpraterpiano]

Amazing as always, still probably the most impressive/high-quality VGM covers on the platform

[@KarlRanday]

Making this my ringtone and alarm for all eternity

[@bsrbt]

The most interesting game music covers on youtube, good job!

[@matfly4832]

Oh man this is so awesome! Great job covering this great pirate tune!

[@rigel875]

mamma mia... simply amazing...

[@Qwazin]

Seriously one of the best video game villain themes up there with Gruntilda's theme from Banjo-Kazooie.

[@Xalted118]

Your covers never disappoint. Aced!

[@OneShortEye]

I have this on repeat and have been bobbing my head the whole time.

[@GothicWytch03]

Yesss I'm so glad you did this one great job as always!! ❤

[@yarrharr7196]

Happy to see you back! Glad you're still making covers. Your picks for songs to cover and approach to them are quite unconventional, it's great.

[@Wuschu21]

Listen to it, set it on repeat and listen to it another 10times, like everytime😁another great cover as always❤️

[@hiimlolo4140]

oh my f*ck.... the nostalgia hittin' me in the nostalgia bone! Gettin me all HYPED!

[@Andromitor]

[@LightTheLightBringer]

Glad you're back! Incredible as all your covers!

[@arnaumuntalcorrales9196]

Man you're simply, amazing.

[@steven.m3299]

Truely amazing! Great music and videos you are making every time! Keep it up!

Amazing arrangement! Now, I'm selling these fine leather jackets...

Good to hear from you again! ❤

[@rshort]

I love this, this is off the charts brilliant!

[@cookedchicory6742]

Mister DK, this is again what the youngster call, a banger. Glad to see a new cover.

[@icarusdjr]

This is just amazing. Fantastic job!

[@yove2934]

This is so good! Amazing cover.

[@guilmm]

Glad you are back!

[@sockpocketpre-alpha8258]

never heard of this game or song, but you rocked it

[@MrConeman]

Never actually played the game, but just glad to see you make a return. 10/10 production as always!

[@dereklearnslow]

This is *chef's kiss*. Subscribed.

[@tomashallenberg]

Accidentally had speed at 1.25 and it became seriously groovy.

[@StefanodeLucadirector]

superb

[@DrStealYourFace]

So thrilled to see another cover, and as always, it was amazing! I don't know if you have considered starting a Patreon, but if not, you should. I for one would be more than happy to toss some money your way every month for the joy these give me!

[@tangledgrove7238]

Great version of this classic, love it! :)

[@quentinlynch]

The epitome of funky! I love it.

[@aleipiano]

Beautiful!!!

[@Myuu]

Randomly found your channel the other day and since then binging your videos. To me it doesn't even matter if I know the song or not, your style so unique and good. Please keep doing it. P.S.: Also would love to listen to your stuff on Spotify :)

[@csabasanta5696]

Oh my, four 20L5s? Wow, I also in love with the music, BTW ;D

[@fredvdp5029]

This is perfect. Well done!

[@tfootball8704]

Amazing!

[@sockpocketpre-alpha8258]

I was thinking about the style of music you like covering, and I’m pretty sure the crawl soundtrack is something you might really enjoy covering, it’s very much your style. The songs crawl, fugue, curses, and toccata would be totally up your alley, I’m certain. Ought give a listen sometime.

[@NagatoPyon]

Amazing!! Love it!!

[@Kirioh]

Wow this is the sound of my childhood! great work!

[@gianpa]

5k view? HOW! This is amazing. You deserve a lot more!

[@dimitreze]

very cool, man!

[@ludothorn]

love

[@cullendelmore2614]

Tight. Also, the gear - much respect.

[@Grin_cheux]

Good job as usual ! keep going ! :D

[@ivancoppola8551]

Speechless

[@Thyphoon]

I LOVE this cover 🥰

[@pav8lo]

Wonderfull, man!

[@user-bt5qt9pp4x]

Somehow makes the song less evil and menacing and more jazzy

[@Daffz]

super groovy man!!

[@wendela5759]

Awesome!

[@Golliebollie]

Incredible

[@globecointrotter3739]

Very good job !

[@mandytoh8760]

Thanks to continue

[@thedupy124]

Le retour de DK Musicbox sur un de mes thèmes favoris, quel plaisir !

[@guywood4955]

beautiful :') can't wait for the game to be released

[@thatbrokenchair]

awww yeah new cover, let's gooooo

[@unofficialadverts]

Every time I listen to your covers, i look at the few views you get and i think about the day you might wanna stop doing this ; then this idea makes me sad... So i keep replaying and talking about this channel to every one who could appreciate it, hoping for that day never to come. ❤

[@Ropa7891]

Amazing

[@gamertechkid1490]

LeChuck's theme goes so well with Kates theme. Genius

[@kypello3512]

I love it!! If LeChuck ever opened a casino, this would be the music

[@lylouf8900]

The kind of notification that brings me a big smile when i see it !

[@TheOttozone1]

LETS GO ANOTHER RELEASE

[@chrdrno]

Super remix comme d'hab !

[@BrklynZu36]

awesome!!! =)

[@PanchoakaElchapucero]

awesome

[@the_real_vdegenne]

very cool.

[@RodrigoeAnaa]

Nice!!!

[@3762302]

Excellent! This soundtrack still rocks today! Will you consider doing a ''the Dig'' one?

[@envy0mental358]

Amazing work!! You have such a unique music, editing, and visual style that feels handcrafted and very enjoyable to watch/listen! May I ask, is there a specific genre that you aim for? a lot of your videos to me feels like watching something gothic/cyberpunk dystopian and is reflected in the music/editing if that makes sense. Was there anything that inspired you to make your music and videos sound and look this particular way?

[@dksmusicbox1371]

Thank you. well, there's not one specific genre i'm aiming for, i like a very broad spectrum of music. But you are right, I like it a bit melancholic and dark. That goes for the visuals as well. I try to capture the mood of the game when filming. For example, when you play the first Monkey Island there are a lot of blue colors, but Le Chuck's color is red. On the other hand, I also try to keep my visual style, for example with the lighting.

[@efeakkayaa]

I love all of your covers and would love to hear C418 - Aria Math from you

[@Kaizzer]

We need an extended version of the second half !!!

[@Twinbee74]

An extended version of the whole track would be even better.... here's hoping for the 12" version!

[@alenkiu9886]

Ron Gilbert told me that you'd never make another MI cover unless..... (plupppp......)

[@countluke2334]

Do-Do-Mi-Sol-Fa-Fa-Re

[@paulgoes]

Love to see and hear a Philicorda.

[@OneShortEye]

I'm working on another Monkey Island video. You mind if I use this tune? It's amazing.

[@dksmusicbox1371]

Yes you can use this tune. Your last monkey island video was great, looking forward to the next one.

[@magnolerriccardo6840]

IMPOSSIBLE not to put a LIKE on this!

[@BAlivreV]

Of course you did that 🙂

[@oldschoolgamer8278]

Realy great work! wars gewollt, dass am ende des lechuck themes patterns ein paar noten anders gespielt sind, als im original. Sorry, my inner Monk said, there have to be other ones. dont be upset, please. It sounds fantastic.

[@dksmusicbox1371]

Thank you. yes, there are a few small variations in the melody. And in the slow part there are some reharmonizations to make it sound sadder.

[@jamiem3343]

Ron Gilbert is the master at monkey island so looking forward to the new one come soon amiga 500 12 disk loading time click click click good old days the new generation dont even no hahahah

[@walysonvelascodeazevedo8441]

H E I S B A C K !

[@November1014]

will these jewels ever be streamed? spotify or something? i dream of vinyl too...

[@justjobiwan]

Hi! Just wondering if you would mind if I used your rendition of LeChucks theme in a video I'm putting together for KZbin as a backing track. Happy to credit ofcourse. It's the perfect sound for what I need. Let me know. :)

[@dksmusicbox1371]

Yes, you can do that.

[@justjobiwan]

@@dksmusicbox1371 thank you!

[@MushPlate]

Wow cool keyboard

[@arnaumuntalcorrales9196]

[@auremilka]

[@Spiritofhamlet]

Tolles Arrangement, liebe den sentimentalen Beginn. Was für eine Melodica ist das?

[@dksmusicbox1371]

Danke dir. ist ne günstige Hohner Student Melodica.

[@paulreed07]
