I really enjoyed making this and I hope you enjoy it too! It's mostly just to say that I like that song more, haha, but I think it made an enjoyable ending. I hope you'll hear the original clearly enough in the background. I managed to service my Demon's Souls fanboy by putting the Nexus right in there at the end. At the end of the song, I used the hub theme from Demon's Souls when the drums drop out.

The drums might be a bit repetitive for OC ReMix, but I think they work. I did a lot of original material over the source, but I tried to keep the original intact with the strings and other elements. I really enjoy chilled out music that has some emotion to it and I feel like it's a really natural thing for me to come back to. I've had some hard times with music lately and here I felt like I was returning to a younger Alex whose style I have neglected for a long time. It's mostly just chords with some little bits here and there. It's the last safe hub area of the Souls games that I haven't touched, mostly because I wasn't sure I could do anything with it that was worth doing. As he was exploring Firelink Shrine, I got the urge for remixing again. This time I have remixed 'Firelink Shrine.' I was inspired mostly by ENB's new Dark Souls playthroughand if you somehow don't know who ENB is, then check out his channel. It makes me really happy to know that my Souls remixes mean something to the people that play these games. It's a game that set me straight when I needed it. But Dark Souls helped me through tougher times. Demon's Souls will always be what made me feel accepted into the Souls community and have an insanely supportive fanbase on my YouTube channel.

It's a strange feeling to know you owe a lot to a video game franchise.

' The Souls games have become a pivotal series in my life. This song however retains the high production quality that we're accustomed to from Alex now.'ĭitto all that it's Alex, it's Dark Souls, and so there are some safe baseline assumptions you can make about emotive, expressive, & polished music, but this leans more on an acoustic kit groove and piano - while still highlighting some haunting, immersive strings. The focus on the piano melodies and the supporting drums give it a much more relaxed feel than his other submissions. This one is different from his usual style though, with a less straight-up symphonic approach. 'Yeah it's yet another awesome RoeTaKa (Alex Roe) Dark Souls Remix. I think Sir_NutS can open things up for us, actually:
