When I did my first top 10 of the base game elden ring soundtrack, I think I had lichdragon fortissax around 10th. He is now top 3 in the game for me at least… it just took some time for me to come around. I have a feeling this is gonna happen with Midra as well (he had already moved up from 8 to 5 from when I recorded this video yesterday) and I’m ok with that. Gives me a reason to keep spamming repeat on the OST :)

What sells Radahn’s theme as my favorite is the fact that it’s primary leitmotif is pulled directly from his original theme in the base game, specifically his 2nd phase. It kind of represents the fact that we’ve fought him before and are now facing him again, except this time it’s a fair fight.

because of Miquella ost which is unmatched, but I'd argue for top 3

Midra is by far the best in my opinion. It really scratches the bloodborne itch.

Dancing lion’s theme is my favorite, I’m surprised it didn’t make the actual list :0

The Rellana theme has Hollow Knight vibes

Been waiting for you to upload this. Your insight on Gehrman's theme and the final boss first phase theme was an awesome catch, and as you said, I never heard this from anyone. I even think that the second phase of the final boss is the best song from any Fromsoft game. I'd include the dancing lion in my top 10 and probably rank Midra a bit higher. But the entire OST is on another level. There is no bad song in it.

god this DLC has such good music, and i love how you properly analyse the music! Midra's theme is so good!

I think I give my favorite to midra just sounds so ominous and creepy. W list as always keep up the great work!

Man I love you. You are one of the few I find, that appreciate the music as much as I do. Only after this video I see now what the appeal of Mesmers theme and Radahn’s second phase is. Thx I also think I‘ll do another longer comment with a few of my opinions

It is just slower version of main theme

messmer's boss cutscene is now one of my favorites along with lady maria's cutscene and ludwig's second phase cutscene and its made even better with the beginning music

The part that starts at 6:12 in this vid of Midra’s theme is one of my favorites of all time

Honestly Midra is my favourite OST I'm surprised it's this low. But I see comments agreeing so I'm glad I'm not the only one.

Not summoning in the Leda NPC bossfight is a crime.

the dancing lion switching between forms in combination with the specific part of the ost where it completely escalates turned the fight into one of my fav ER fights

This video was awesome! Also I think some of the tracks had some kind of dark souls 2 feel to them? I dunno but I felt that way, anyway goated vid!🎉

Damn midras ost is in my top 3 forsure, probably my favorite boss from the whole dlc

My personal favourite is still the dancing beast ost because it is the only ost in the dlc that when second phase hit and the music ramped up I literally froze in place to just listen to the song. This to say all the themes in this vid is still absolute bangers!

Radahn's theme is genuinely so good. The first phase feels like a return of a hero. The second phase actually sounds holy. The final part of the 2nd phase is just fucking amazing. It's definitely my favorite ost in the dlc.

I might not like how they have written Miquealla and the ending, but hot damn his theme is soo good. Deserved Nr.1

I think Messmer’s ost is up there with themes of Lady Maria, Slave Knight Gael, and Ludwig as one of the best soundtracks FromSoft has ever made. And thank god it’s attached to such a genuinely exhilarating boss fight

Midra and radahns osts are definitely the new best in elden ring and the first elden ring osts to crack my top favorite fromsoft themes. They just hold such a high bar with da3 and bloodborne and armored core games

Midra that low means youre wrong by default

They cooked with the music in this DLC, absolutely phenomenal, I already got my favorites in any FROM’s games just from this DLC.

Yaaay I love a good music theme video!

Rominas theme fits more to Messmer giving the fact that this was playing in the Story trailer when Messmer was marching to the scadutree castle and burnt Everything down. But still my fav dlc Theme and a very good and Well done boss😮‍💨

Wait... your fought putrescent knight but haven't found st trina?

​@@Nightwalk2 Yes channel name is Loopine sorry he changed it and I always use the old spelling.

First off, not having the dancing lion theme on the list proper is criminal behaviour. But seriously the DLC soundtrack is outstanding. I especially love how it’s used leitmotifs from the base game for multiple foes. Really isn’t something that happens minus Lawerence, Gwynn and Nashandra (lemme know if I missed something cos I’m stoopid ). Fav is defo Messmer’s theme which has become my new hyperfixation, love how subdued but intense it is and the fact it’s a corruption of the main/Radagon’s theme is fantastic but the final boss theme is beautiful, powerful and iconic. I appreciate the variety in vibes as well it’s not all the usual choral chants, horns and strings (although they’re also here and they’re awesome)

Fun fact if you didn't know that violin on midras ost is the same that the frenzied merchant is playing

Fun fact: number 6/Rominas theme is the same song used in the story trailer for Elden Ring SOE.

Relanna's sounds like a combo Demons Souls + Dark Souls 3. The fight sort of feels like that too.

Those United In Common Cause is one of, if not the greatest musical achievement in the franchise so far (in my opinion) While i love the characters in these games, i have never liked going through their questlines themselves. I think we may all agree that a questline being ruined because you didnt speak to a character in a specific point in time, only to find them dead (or gone) later, is very frustrating and tedious. The quests in this DLC were no different, and i didnt want to ruin them so i checked a guide. It was tedious as usual, but the characters were very likeable (especially Ansbach) Yes i knew the fight was coming, i knew it would be an npc gank which i hate, i knew what characters would be on my side, and what rewards I'd get; so i was just expecting to get it done and move on when the time came. Never did i expect the fight to have dialogue between all these characters, and most definitely didnt expect that incredible music. Without the song, it would have been a cool moment but nothing special, especially since i knew it was coming. But with its inclusion, it elevated this event to being one of my favorite moments in the whole franchise. There might be more grandiose pieces for the bosses in general, like Radagon, the Soul Of Cinder, Gael or Ludwig. Those pieces elevate what is already a great fight into monumental levels. There have also been instances of crappy bosses having bangers, but most dont remember them because its attached to a bad fight. This piece is attached to a lackluster encounter (mechanically speaking), but the way it accentuates the stakes of it, the fact thst most of these characters will die in this fight, it just makes it such an emotional and memorable moment. Thats why this track is so incredible and my favorite in Elden Ring as a whole.

Your top 3 is my top 3 lol. Lets see how things change as time goes on though

I thought Metyrs theme was really good. I don't know how to describe it but that very grand feeling but also like tender sounding. It then becomes every ominous and fits the cosmic horror entity it is. Was overall very good for the mother of fingers

Correct. St Trina and Miquella are two people in the same body like Marika and Radagon.

Aw my favorite didn't make the cut lol. I adore the Mother of Fingers theme. It follows in the footsteps of the Ebrietas theme in that it mixes rapture with horror, though I think Mother of Fingers surpasses its predecessor.

I didn’t quite realize who I was looking at during that initial shot at Radahn’s boots, until the strings came in with half of the closing motif of the original score. I proceeded to absolutely lose my fucking mind from that point

Messmers theme makes me want to cry

When prime Radahns second phase hits: I aaam Chooclaaaate

How dare you not put Bayle in number 1?? It’s so crazy how underrated it is, it’s by far the best fromsoft boss music imo

I really loved Leda and the group’s theme. That’s my all number one fav. Hearing it first time and fighting them was really emotional and powerful. Just reminding me of fighting Lady Maria and Gerhman the hunter. ❤also really loved your music! Please send the link 😊🎉❤❤❤

Fun fact: the twin moon knights theme is the remix of the soe trailer theme

Dancing lion theme goes so hard thoooooo…

Dancing Lion below Jori, which is IMO an extremely forgettable song is wild

bayle at 5 is sinister.

I haven't listened to everything the soundtrack has to offer yet as I just finished my first playthrough almost entirely guideless. But from this experience my top 3 would be right now: 1 Promised Consort theme 2 Midra, lord of of Frenzied Flame (how could you put him so low) 3 Those united in common cause

Ur song sound very peaceful

St. Trina isnt a boss, personally I would put Midras theme a lot higher just for the nod to the base game frenzied flame song about 3 minutes in, also I dont know if the audio you got for it in the video was altered somehow, but I swear it sounds way better than that in game. Radahn does go crazy though, I remember the first time I beat him, he went into his meteor at the end of the fight, and right when he landed is when that climactic part of the song played from the story trailer and it was so cool

Radahn from The House Velaryon, also Bayle's theme also has something from Game of Thrones + Bayle=Balerion Igon=Aegon... it all coming together GRM

Wasn't Elden Ring's soundtrack composed by a live orchestra? The Budapest Film Orchestra? Pretty sure it's not digital except for a few exceptions. Don't know about the DLC tho.

st trina´s theme kinda fits with the scadutree avatar haha

I love Dancing Lion.

I agree with most of this list but I would personally move messers theme a little lower as I personally don’t find it as memorable as say rellana’s theme. I would also have put dancing lion over petruescent knight or the dungeon ost

The boss’s theme better be god-tier you’re gonna die 1000 times having to listening to it

Shaman village hits different

I knew I wasn’t crazy. I thought I heard Melanias theme

I’ll have what you’re smoking to have elder inquisitor above Divine beast

I feel like Leda’s theme is perfect for what I feel was the coolest boss in the DLC

Romina is #1 for me, simply beautiful.

we all know the best banger is gaiuss

Radahn, Dancing Lion and Midra top 3

Metyr theme underrated

Dancing is the top 1 lol

my personal number 1 is the divine dancing lion theme, soo good

At least im not alone in thinking Midra was one of the best in the game

I’m unable to enjoy radahns thems as much I’d like because of how much I dislike his fight and listening to the soundtrack just reminds me of it, but oh my this is probably this most epic theme since Gaels phase 3

Midra made me lose my mind with how terrifyingly good the OST was (Pun intented).

Absolute top tier tracks man, Fromsoftware cooked their hardest in this DLC imo. Scadutree avatar deserves a spot here, mainly cuz of the 2nd and 3rd phase and how sad and desperate it sounds.

I didnt like this ost that much but the divine beast theme felt like it was at least top 3

Phase 2 Radahn / Miquella OST is possibly the best piece of music ever made tbh

Disagree on some things but nuber 1 is best by far
