Hi everyone!
The ergo is whispering... this arrangement is my first one that is not from a From Software game. I will still be covering mostly FromSoft game music, but I had to make an exception for this one since it's so incredible. Lies of P was truly a breathtaking experience for me, and honestly I thought that they matched FromSoft in quality and design. I'd even go as far as to say NeoWiz exceeded them in a couple of ways. I have played a ton of soulslike games made by other companies as it's one of my favorite genres, and I really enjoyed and still love a bunch of them (The Surge, Mortal Shell, Nioh, etc). However, this one was certainly the best one for me - playing through Lies of P reminded me of how I felt when I first played Dark Souls the day it came out back in 2011. It was extremely challenging which I crave, and it took me nearly 2 months to complete my playthrough. It was so engaging and intense the whole way through - some of the bosses took me over a week of repeated attempts each evening. If you haven't played this yet, enjoy dying a lot like me, and love FromSoftware's games, I highly recommend you give it a try.
The music in Lies of P also really struck me. Of course, the beautiful records in the hotel are amazing and get most of the credit (like Feel, Quixotic, Memory of Beach), but I also thought the boss music was really well done and very memorable (and not getting enough credit tbh). I will go more into this in the music theory breakdown, but I really appreciated how I could hear some aspects of Dark Souls/dark fantasy style harmony, but it was mixed with a more modern film score approach as well as a few nods to the Belle Epoque era that the game is based in. I will keep this as spoiler free as possible because the game is pretty new, but this 2-phase battle was my favorite fight from the game and the one in which the music really enhanced the battle. I also had to do an unbelievable amount of attempts to win here maybe 30-40, so this song was drilled into my head over and over again. The soft, melancholic first phase which spirals into the bestial and energetic second phase is a tried-and-true method that absolutely did its job here. (We saw this approach in Sister Friede in Dark Souls 3 too, and Fire Giant from Elden Ring, to name a few). Lore-wise it's also a very heavy moment.
I hope you enjoy this arrangement! If you're sad it's not a From Software song as usual, don't worry, I've got more content coming soon. Thank you so much for watching. And if you're interested, I'll be putting the detailed music theory breakdown for this song in the comment section below.
