Calcined and Cauterized – Caleb Widogast’s Theme
Hi! This is my attempt at an orchestral theme for Caleb Widogast from Critical Role!
If you're new here, hi!! I'm Elle, and I make music sometimes. Most of the other videos on my channel are related to an animated show called RWBY that you may or may not have heard of - but if you're mostly into CR content, don't worry! It's a miracle that I posted twice in one year, so if you subscribe I won't over-fill your subscription box haha. I plan on releasing more of these types of scores, and am currently attempting to brainstorm ideas for themes and leitmotifs of the other members of the Mighty Nein. Right now I'm trying to figure out how to emulate a bone flute for Cad.
If you aren't new here, sorry for the not RWBY related post, but I couldn't help myself - Critical Role is my other favorite thing in existence and I highly recommend it if you haven't seen it! I'll *try* to put out some more RWBY related stuff soon, but I can't make any promises because life is life.

For Penny - An Original RWBY Composition
Переглядів 4353 роки тому
Hi! I’ve upgraded from using garageband on my phone (which was used for... literally every other video on this channel) to logic pro, so that’s good! I can actually change the tempo without combining two different projects :’)... I still don’t have a midi keyboard though. pain This is a short original piece I wrote the other day because I was in my feels about Penny; it’s based around a combina...
Forever Fall|RWBY Volume 6 Soundtrack|Unofficial Instrumental

This was just a little thing that I made over the course of today! I heard the song and as a total geek for leitmotifs totally loved it- it’s based off of the Jaune/Pyrrha love theme that you hear in the score! I’ll definitely be doing a full cover of this when the soundtrack comes out- all piano songs are definitely excessively easier to cover. Artist Credit: mojojoj27827860/status...

Sorry for the wait! I finally got around to finishing the instrumental for the full version of this song *ahem* three months after it was released... don’t kill me as always feel free to use this as a cover, so long as you give me credit and LET ME KNOW in the comments, i want to hear it in action!!

Well that was a lot of effort Watch me put this out and the official instrumental be released tomorrow 2 whole months Also if you can’t tell, Weiss is 100% my favorite character in the show Again if you’d like to use this in a cover feel free to do so as long as you credit me (and leave a comment so I can hear it!!) Artist Credit: jesper-mojo.tumblr.com also if somebody wants to teach me how to...
I barely know what RWBY is but this work of beauty is blowing my mind... This is awesome.
Knew you since years without even knowing, I've always loved your Path to Isolation instrumental I forgot about RWBY for a while so I didn't heard this one sooner, but I love it as much And while I'm here, may I ask if you could make an instrumental version of Home ? I'm seeking for once since years but I can't find anything really good, so it would made my day (Yeah it's to sing, but only in my room for now) So uh, thanks in advance whatever the answer is
This sounds so beautiful 😭❤ Penny is such an awesome character and I always feel terrible for what she had to go through, this suits her so well 🥺
I admit, I've always wanted to hear This Life Is Mine without the vocals, but I was always frustrated that every video I found was basically just the OG, but basically distorted as Hell due to trying to muffle out said vocals or some crap. At the very least, I love the work you put into making your own instrumental cover! This is very well done, and I love listening to this whenever I want to fantasize Weiss Schnee becoming a collaborative kind of skin for Fiora or someone else in League of Legends' roster of playable characters. Like, fr, if Riot Games made special skins where characters from other IPs filled the shoes of their champs, I admittedly would eat that up that like a delicious luxury dinner I don't need, but want anyways because I saw it.
Deutsche Übersetzung des Lied Textes (German Translation of the Lyrics) Es beginnt Mit dem unerwarteten Verlust Von etwas Wichtigem Die Wärme Die getröstet und gewiegt hat Verschwindet einfach Und an ihrer Stelle ist nichts Nur ein endloses leeres Loch Das Licht, das den Weg zeigte, verschwand Und die Dunkelheit nahm Kontrolle Bitterkeit und Wut füllen schnell die Leere Der Weg in die Isolation Ist übersät mit zerstörten Träumen Die Kälte Scheint in meiner Seele zu wachsen Sie verschlingt mich Verwirrt Und ich verliere mich In dem Sturm werde Abgestumpft Geschubst und gezogen Ich entwirre Kann mich nicht finden,wenn ich Ständig gezwungen bin mich anzupassen Feinde umgeben mich aber Die Schlimmsten erscheinen als Freunde Lügner und Heuchler Versuchen nur, ihre Ziele zu erreichen Alles zerbricht Direkt vor meinen Augen Ich schaue in den Spiegel Und sehe jemanden, den ich nicht kenne Die Freude Die mein Herz kannte sie Entzieht sich mir Entfernt Und das Einzige, was ich fühle, ist allein Das Lächeln verblasst Und ich drehe und sinke werde schwächer Eingefroren in Einsamkeit Es friert bis auf die Knochen Erinnerungen entfliehen Als mein Herz sich entleert Narben, die Wunden bedecken verbergen nicht selbst zugefügten Schmerz Alles was mein Verstand will Im Konflikt mit meinem Herz Kämpfe um weiter zu leben Doch jeden Tag zerbreche ich noch mehr Spiegel, was ist das was ich seh? Wer starrt mir entgegen? Ein Fremder zu meinem Herzen füllt meinen Verstand Spiegel hilf mir, wer bin ich?
Mirror Can you hear me? Do I reach you? Are you even listening? Can I get through? There's a part of me that's desperate for changes Tired of being treated like a pawn But there's a part of me that stares back From inside the mirror Part of me that's scared I might be wrong That I can't be strong I've been afraid Never standing on my own I let you be the keeper of my pride Believed you when you told me I was nothing on my own Listen when I say I swear it here today I will not surrender This life is mine! Amazing how you conquered me Chained me in servility And made me see The world the way you told me to But I was young, and didn't have a Way to know the truth Born to live your legacy Existing just to fill your needs A casualty of this so-called "family" That you have turned into a travesty But I don't intend to suffer any longer Here's where your dominion falls apart I'm shattering the mirror That kept me split in pieces That stood between my mind and my heart This is where I'll start I'm not your pet Not another thing you own I was not born guilty of your crimes Your riches and your influence Can't hold me anymore I won't be possessed Burdened by your royal test I will not surrender This life is mine! Shame that it took so long To rescue me From the guilt you used To tie me to your family tree I guess your training failed You're not in charge, I'm free Your patriarchal prison won't hold me Now this conversation's finally over Mirror Mirror, now we're done I've pulled myself together now My mind and heart are one Finally one! I'm not your pet Not another thing you own I was not born guilty of your crimes Your riches and your influence Can't hold me anymore I won't be possessed Burdened by your royal test I will not surrender This life is mine!
Me and friend of mine were thinking of using this cover for a song we wanna do and i was wondering if it would be cool if we did
new ringtone
Do you believe in Destiny?
Not a cover but I used your 2 Weiss tracks in an anime analysis video. I hope that’s ok ;_;. I made sure to credit you in the description. ua-cam.com/video/ud0dtImuAG0/v-deo.html You can skip to the last time code if your only interested in the bits with your song.
This so perfectly captures the depth and lore behind this character! Keep up the good work! Ps. I love the voices in the background
oh also fun title facts if something is calcined, it is exposed to flame or heat in a process that purifies or desiccates it. if something is cauterized, it is typically organic matter burned for the purpose of long-term recovery and healing.
Me: THIS LIFE IS MI- *COUGH COUGH*
okay I remember saying I would use this like 2 years ago but I never got to it cus my voice sucks maybe today I shall 🤪
Good luck lol- my voice broke while singing
@@kteth007 jvhg same 😧
@@ThisisRaP44 I can't stop laughing when I try doing the vocals bc I sound so weird
@@kteth007 fr 💀 I try singing without the music and I realize just how.. childish(?) my voice sounds
@@ThisisRaP44 OOF
meanwhile at Afterlife Pyrrha-soooo, how does it feel to be alive ??? Penny- it hurts...........but worth every seconds
This is an insane punch to the gut, and since in the description you said to leave requests, do you think you could do Indomitable next? It kills me every time I hear it. (Loved your forever fall instrumental btw)
i’ll try working on it and we’ll see what happens! it should be easier to tackle now that i have a better program haha
Awesome work! I really feel like this captures Penny's character well
Simple, warm, and deeply touching..... Just like her. A truly lovely piece!!! And good to have you back. 😎👍🌹💖🙏
thanks, it’s good to be back! :)
This is very beautiful-well done! I was actually really confused when I got the notification for this video, since you completely changed your name and picture 😆
lol yeah i’ve been trying to compile my online tags together haha. glad you enjoyed!
@@cr1ticalfailure Yup!
This sounds absolutely phenomenal! Thank you for taking time to create this beautiful composition!!!
It's breathtakingly simple and a very human composition. I love it.
Really excellent work. The harmony in particular, the use of upper structure while still remaining within the A minor diatonic framework, gives it that sense of simultaneous emotional complexity and innocent simplicity. I hope you find it in yourself to do more of these sorts of compositions, because you’re obviously quite skilled at this.
thank you! i’m definitely considering doing some more compositions similar to this :)
Heh, I suppose we've all got to get "in our feels" for Penny sooner or later. I absolutely loved this btw! During this entire run through, I got chilling flashbacks to V7E7 (after the massacre, and before Robyn and the others had their heist). I loved your usage of pianos and strings, to really give that "Alex A. charm". We need more content like this, and while I've tried to capture that very essence myself, it seems like you nailed it! Id love to see you tackle an Oscar track, or maybe even one for Cinder (considering they both got a lot of score development in Volume 8, as far as leitmotifs and ideas). Wonderful work!
i just watched through several of your videos and they’re great! could i ask, what library does your cello sound come from? i’ve been meaning to buy some better sounds for orchestration but haven’t figured out what i want to get yet lol
@@cr1ticalfailure well, the Cello vst is the Tina Guo Legato bundle (which I warn, is pretty expensive). The other orchestral VST's I use range from Spitfire's Labs, Original's, and BBC Symphony Orchestra. The choir patches (which, if you haven't seen Alex's vids on it), come from VOXOS (a choir vst that comes with a built-in phrase builder). On another note, since you seem rather in tune with the show's score and leitmotifs, I'd like to perhaps share some ideas/ collaborate with you on some new stuff, if you're willing, of course. 😁😊
@@Josef_Germany totally, i’d love to! :) i’m slowly working on getting some vsts... right now i’m still just using what comes with logic and what i could find for free (spitfire audio labs, which has the piano sound i used here). right now i’m working on a speakeasy-style version of bmblb that may never see the light of day (it’s hard to write swing without a midi keyboard rip)
@@cr1ticalfailure I feel ya on that one. I've always wanted to render some of the songs into different genres of music, but I never knew how to go about doing it. (Btw, do you have any other social media? We could share thoughts and ideas in more detail there)

There goes my heart again. Dear god, this is simply stunning. Beautiful, _beautiful_ work.
thank you!! this means a lot :)
This is gorgeous!
thank you so much! :)
Hnnnn every time I hear her leitmotif it's like getting punched in the chest 😭 absolutely beautiful work!
4:57 wtf was that
I guess adjusted the bg
lol i didn’t know how to edit videos
I saw in the desc that I should comment if I’m using this, I’m singing Path to Isolation as part of my Vocal Portfolio for college but I’m not posting it anywhere besides that^^ and I’ll def give you credit
What about Neo?
Hilow! Can I use this in a cover and credit you?
Excuse me, can we use your instrumental for the cover? The cover will be under NotADub channel and we will give all credits to you! If you are okay with this, can we ask you for wav or 320kbps file please for the higher quality of the cover! Thank you for your amazing instrumental!
Hey dude, dropping my cover of this soon (I know its a couple volumes late but still a great song).
I'm a HUGEEEEE RWBY FAN!!!!! This freakinggg slapssssss man!!!! I play guitar and bass, I'd be happy to help you out with any future guitar/bass parts (Unless it's Jeff's solo's, cuz those are fucking unREAL)
Hi! Is it okay if I used your instrumental for my cover?
PLEASE MAKE A LONGER VERSION ❤❤❤❤
Heyah friend! Finally was able to upload the Cover with your instrumental! Sorry it took me so long ;-; My idea with the music video never worked out, so I finally decided to upload it like any other song x.x Hope you haven't forgotten me haha x3 ua-cam.com/video/gERUAfD9PwI/v-deo.html
You always nail these. Great job!! (I used your first instrumental for a silly video of mine; I credited you. Thanks!) ua-cam.com/video/7WhLgc4n5Fc/v-deo.html You earned my subscribe!
Why am i using a kazoo
Imo this is better because I really don’t like the singer
if i may ask, why?
This song explains my life.
Does anyone know where I can find this instramental, but where the guitar in the third/last part sounds exactly the same as in the song?
i wish you good luck in finding it. i did what i could to recreate the last part but since i don’t actually play guitar it doesn’t sound the best. i don’t think anybody else has posted an instrumental, though.
I feel like this song could be like Weiss's mother speaking to her or something
Hey! I'm one of the team members From KRWBY Productions(RWBY: ABRG)! I'd love to get in contact with you about your work! Please feel free to email me if able or shoot me an add of discord! KristinaMickel@yahoo.com Widowmaker#8234 on discord!
Also! I simply love your covers aaaaand I was wondering if you could cover "All that Matters" from RWBY as well? It's an amazing song and I think it would sound beautiful if you covered it!
i’ve considered covering it but because it’s swung it will be super difficult for me to do- basically i need better equipment to make it work. i’ve gotten a few other requests for that song so as soon as it’s a possibility for me to do i’ll be on it!
@@cr1ticalfailure AMAZING!! Yeah, since that song has no instrumental, at least from where I have looked, I've been dying to get my hands on a good one! I can't wait to hear your's, good luck!
Would it be alright if I used your cover for a vocal cover on my channel? I will credit you of course!
thats totally fine!
@@cr1ticalfailure Nice! Thank you
No copyright?
i made the instrumental completely from scratch, so it’s covered as far as copyright goes.
Singing this for my chorus soon 😅
i don’t know if you’ve already sang, but if so then i hope it went well, and if not i hope it does!!
Oh I'm definitely using this for my cover of this song!!
OMG, THIS IS ART
