Toby Fox- Descend (Leitmotifs)

[@tylerflory9373]

This personally shows that TobyFox is a god when it comes to working with Lemotifs

[@1cbear745]

right? and this was really early in his career!

[@Jeylime]

Toby fox changed my brain chemistry

[@N-R40k]

This has more motifs than the whole Undertale ost

[@lumiscince]

most in-depth (and accurate) one i’ve seen yet personally, thanks dude!!

[@1cbear745]

no problem!!! :D

[@Moonsong227]

ITS LIKE I CAN SEE THE SHEET MUSIC

[@koaalaeeaj403]

[@1cbear745]

[@purplenerdsplushie]

holy shit that IS the problem sleuth theme THATS SO COOL

[@madziko56]

Very great video, analyse indepth and very well thought but... BALLAD OF JACK NOIR AT THE END ? I CANT UNHEAR IT !!!

[@1cbear745]

I'm glad someone else was stunned by that realization

[@Jeylime]

This is pure facts no bs

[@kopiandpaste]

WAIT TOBY FOX MADE DESEND

[@1cbear745]

toby fox made a lot of homestuck songs!!!

[@kopiandpaste]

I KNOW I DIDNT EXPECT HIM TO MAKE THIS ON SPECIFICALLY THIS IS MY FAVE RN

[@SalemsRising]

I never noticed non compos mentis oh my god

[@ILikeCookiesandlemons]

beatdown sounds the best

[@zer0kyo]

could you do this for some other homestuck songs I love this so much

[@1cbear745]

most other homestuck songs don't have nearly this much jam-packed into them. descend is sort of special in that regard. however, i did do eternity served cold as a test for the program I later made this video in... maybe I'll dig it out.

[@ivythay4259]

@@1cbear745 I'm about halfway through, and I can say that what I've heard of the HS soundtrack so far has been very good, made by Toby or otherwise. Then again, he's composed like 2/3 of the OST at this point I'm at

[@1cbear745]

@@ivythay4259 i'm glad you're enjoying it!

[@r1cknasty567]

whats the difference between doctor and penumbra phantasm? i always thought that was just penumbra phantasm in doctor

[@1cbear745]

the difference is only a couple of notes. as for doctor taking from penumbra phantasm... I honestly don't know. I always thought they were two separate songs that miraculously sounded perfect together.

[@segafan1316]

​@@1cbear745I kind of saw it as Penumbra being a song to go with Doctor, like how Toby once tried to do a song called Patient

[@antoniovilar63]

i'm the 413 liker!

[@Glacial7]

This is cool but at what point does it stop being a song and just becomes a collage of other songs

[@1cbear745]

I mean, there is literally no point of this song that is without another songs leitmotif. It's using the collage to make something unique. despite exclusively being made up of other songs, descend has its own unique cadence, energy, and progression. so so so good

[@bugdracula1662]

Being a collage does not diminish its artistic value! I imagine it takes significantly more effort to merge like ten different songs into something that not only sounds good but has a building narrative than it would have been to just make something original.
