I wanna thank everyone for supporting me and for motivating me everyday to make and create these videos. I am always dumbfounded by how respectful, kind and loving all of you are. This year has been an amazing one, one of growth for both this channel and myself personally. I love you all so much!! You are the greatest fans anyone could ask for, have a spectacular New Year!! And be ready for a whole New Year of entertainment and laughs!
Well thank YOU for doing your best on everything you do! It definitely shows how much you love the things you do and that is reflected in the final product. Here's hoping this next year treats you well!
Thanks for entertaining us, the one thing that separated you in a good light from other music reviewers is your crazily versatile music taste! The fact that you can take a review from Dr. Wily's theme and then watch this and have it be from the same channel is astonishing! From chiptune 8-Bit themes like Dr. Wily's Theme to jazzy and upbeat themes like all of Cuphead! And also, it's great that you can show this in only your latest 2 videos! Bro, you are actually great!
The sheer amount of editing and skits and solos thing you did in this video is Absolutely insane! Even though it's 3 f#@$ing hours long, you made it fun to watch the entire time. Fabulous job man👌
How do you not have at least a billion subscribers, your editing, your clear yet exciting explanations for why love these songs, and your hat……gosh. Chefs kiss!
2:35:58 I think it's says "Caute Cave Mortem" which is Latin & translates to "Carefully guard against Death" or "Beware of Death" which...yeah is kinda Dark when you look at the Battle against Chef Saltbaker where he is essentially KILLING THE SAME INGREDIANTS YOU HAVE FOUGHT SO HARD TO RECEIVE & HAVE GIVEN TO HIM
Here's my personal top 5 5. Carnival Kerfuffle: pretty good, but you made a good point about some of the solos being pretty unmemorable 4. One Hell of a Time: Fast paced and very fun 3. Floral Fury: Really well composed and fun 2. Doggone Dogfight: Has a nice sort of chill energy but is still intense, the end also slaps 1.Baking the Wonder Tart: Absolute masterpiece and fits the fight insanely well
I think the thing about the main game tracks that diminishes theur quality somewhat is the face that tgey were made on the fly, and then fitted to whatever boss it feels right for. This works most times, but falls flat for me sometimes. I'm not sure if it's the same way for the DLC, but the DLC tracks feel like they were made specifically for the bosses.
One awesome little reference in One Hell of a Time that I don’t really see many people talk about happens at about 1:06 (at least in the OST version. Not sure about the in-game soundtrack). The trumpet solo at that part of the song is actually a returning leitmotif from the original version of the Die House theme, shown off in one of the very first trailers for Cuphead. Its just such a cool detail to have one of the first Cuphead songs made show up in one of the last.
Genuinely one of my favourite videos on UA-cam, you have such a charisma that so little UA-camrs have nowadays and that’s one of the many, MANY reasons I adore your content, keep up the fantastic work!
2:38:35 That "missing" portion actually plays also on Saltbaker's third phase, only if you manage to take that long to defeat him. It even plays to the very end, with the organ solo and the coda (without vocals). You can hear all of it on a Whetstone Only run.
Holy cow! I didn't completely enjoy Honeycomb Herald before, but seeing your jam out ( which I love the uncanny amount of ) to it gave me a new appreciation for it and I enjoy it significantly more! Nice!
For the past year or so, I've been regularly searching youtube for a deep dive into the Cuphead soundtrack, but only managed to find brief rating videos. This video showed up on my frontpage today and I'm overjoyed that the exact thing I've been looking for is now out there! Thank you for making an extended three-hour deep dive to expand on your previous video, I will be putting some time aside tonight to watch it 💖
Watch me: I think High-Noon Hoopla is one of the messiest Cuphead songs. It's so disorganized and many parts of it feel like they should have come a measure earlier or a measure later. It's also very drawn out and much longer than it needs to be, and the super high pitched trumpet sounds very irritating imo. That being said I can understand why one would like it because it's pretty unique compared to the other boss music. It's just not really for me.
I've only just finished the Floral Fury section of the video but I LOVE the energy you bring to your videos. You dancing along and jamming out to the songs as you talk about them just remind me of how I enjoy dancing to songs whenever I'm alone and there's no one to judge me how I can't dance. The Cuphead OST goes hard. RIP that cane. Snapped before it reachced its prime.
Kristofer Maddigan is a genius for not only composing so many different tracks, but also still coming up with alternate versions to the solos of those hundreds of tracks.
Fun Fact, Coin-op Bop (and High Score) was played on a hell of an instrument called the American Fotoplayer! its basically a piano, organ, marimba, drumset, and various wacky noise makers all lumped into a wall-covering cabinet. The machine also plays itself via paper piano rools, so the joke about the piano player having to keep up is moot. I love this thing!
Man, i'm laughing so hard at 2:03:55 LOL Still, keep up the good content Michael Jose, i haver never stopped watching your videos! ;) (and i'm also grateful you like Railroad Wrath more now lol, it's my favorite boss and was one of my favorite themes before the DLC came out)
Hey, I think i figured why Bootlegger Boogie sounds so much like you're in the middle of a gang fight. I think it's because only the brass instruments are played so chaotically, because if you pay attention, the drums and piano are actually quite calm. It almost feels like you're inside a midnight bar that's falling apart. The brass instruments represent the Moonshine Mob.
1:38:07 So, what happens here is like in the Clip Join Calamity and Carnival Kerfuffle. The main melody playing is the Fiery Frolic melody, and in the background you can hear Ruse of an Ooze, it's hard to hear though... But if you pay enough attention you can hear it.
If you liked the clarinet solos in the game, then you should definitely check out the unused version of high seas hi-jinx, as it has an amazing clarinet solo a couple minutes in, which replaces the saxophone solo that is in the in game version. Also, amazing video as always! I loved the skits and in depth reviews of all the songs! Keep up the good work, and I hope you continue to love and appreciate this game's amazing soundtrack :)
Normally whenever I watch 3 hour long videos I get bored or tired like half through, but continue to watch. This was exciting and super fun to watch the entire time. I loved this Video!!
This has got to be the longest video that I’ve sat through the ENTIRE WAY through in ONE SITTING WITHOUT SKIPPING EVEN ONCE The sheer DEDICATION, PASSION, AND QUALITY put in this video is PHENOMENAL HOW ARE YOU ONLY AT 8.9K SUBS
This comment may sound cliche, but the production quality within the first song review is outstanding, something that I'd genuinely expect from a channel with at least 500K subscribers and five editors, so imagine my dismay when I saw your subscriber count sitting under 9K. You're a great musician and I love how much you commit to the bit here. I'll do what little I can and subscribe and tell my friends about this great video.
19:15 originally this track was written for a planned underwater inkwell isle so that could explain the absurd length and would definitely explain the piano version
HOW DID I NOT FIND THIS VIDEO BEFORE?! your presence in this video is so beloved and likeable!! you really caught my attention throughout the whole video!! especially your editing with the instruments, so well done!!!
55:49 As someone who has played the trumpet parts(mostly for fun tho) I'd say the adrenaline you get from playing it greatly overpowers the exhaustion (at least for a while) I've always struggled with high notes so the first time i got all of them for the first time was amazing
I've been a fan and singer of barbershop for almost 4 years now, and when I first saw this game open for the first time, needless to say I was overjoyed. Awesome video man, and damn this must've taken months of editing haha
This video is so good that I watched it for 2 hours straight the first time without even realizing. The sheer execution and editing alone make this one of the top videos on the platform, and you definitely need more support.
This entire video has so much work put into it! I love the comedy and acting. Thank you for not rushing this masterpiece video even with all the comments.
I am one of those people who started to LOVE "Honeycomb Herald" just because of this video. Dude, this melody always seemed to me somehow boring and gloomy, but after this video, this is definitely one of my favourite track in this game. Thanks Michael
dude. this is one of the best, if not _the_ best music ranking video ive ever watched. you made it so entertaining for almost 3 HOURS its insane how much energy & effort you put into this. i enjoyed every moment, from the skits to the jam out sessions, and of course the review of the tracks & game itself. i may not agree with all the rankings, but you definitely have my respect. you're a very talented guy, & you definitely deserve a lot more recognition for your work. amazing stuff man, i really enjoyed this one & your older cuphead video as well !!
2:14:13 Well to be fair, The Queen is known as the most powerful piece on the chess board. The Queen may move through an unlimited of unoccupied squares in any direction-horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. The Queen’s moves combine the moves of the rook and bishop, making it an extremely strategically useful piece. Meanwhile The King can move one square in any direction. It may not be the most powerful piece in chess, but it certainly is the most important. If you lose your King, you have lost the game.
1:52:36 Also, in "A Far Off Isle" you can hear some clear leitmotifs used later in the climax of "Baking the Wondertart". So maybe MDHR's intention was to give subtle hints about the final boss.
Phenomenal. I was actually kind of worried to watch it, because I didn’t want to miss the new year, but I just ended up pausing the video like a sane person. Also, I was wondering, do you actually play some of the instruments that you sync to in the jam sessions, or are you just pretending? The video is awesome either way. Happy 2023, Micheal!
Happy New Year to you too my friend! No, I do not actually play a majority of the instruments you see me using in the videos. I played drums a little once upon a time and I can play a few songs on guitar, but that is it!
I swear to god we need a full movie for that war veteran scene. Epic video my guy! I’ve always loved this games OST and it’s great to see you talking about it again after a year. I hope we get more out of this game soon.
Fantastic as always, man. One note, you don't have to worry about covering the ingame DLC songs. From what I can tell, the ingame and soundtrack variants are the same. That aside, this was astounding. Nearly 3 hours of work, filled with fun skits, hilarious jam sessions and an overall really nice ranking, and you STILL don't have a million subs yet?! Just for fun, I'll share my personal top ten. 10. The Key Ingredients 9. Gnome Way Out 8. Fiery Frolic 7. Junkyard Jive 6. Clip Joint Calamity 5. Botanic Panic 4. Baking the Wondertart 3. Doggone Dogfight 2. Shootin' n' Lootin' 1. Threatenin' Zepplin
I might be a lil late but idc this is honestly one of the best videos I’ve watched ever, the editing is so good, the jam sessions are fun, and god, I love the cup head ost so much I’m so glad I got to watch this amazing video, 5/5 cttmttatdlc
I can't believe your channel has less than 100k, actually less than 10k?? Sounds like a straight up crime, especially considering how long this would have taken to practice the pieces, how many takes for the performances, and the editing. Ridiculously underrated, hopefully this video, and thusly your channel blows up soon!
Lmao I don’t actually play the instruments, I just try and look like I do. I still need to practice a little so I can make sure I’m hitting the instrument or moving the instruments at the appropriate times! That and some sly editing, I would say the most difficult instruments to pretend play (make it look like I’m actually playing) are the drums followed by the piano. Practicing everything I’m gonna play takes usually no more than 2 mins. I usually do multiple angles to ensure I can cut in case a shot didn’t look right. And thanks for the flattering comment about 100k subs. I’m touched😁
Clip Joint Calamity actually sounds like music you would hear in casino based stage in a fighting game, fitting given Ribby and Croaks are based on Ryu and Ken
Now I know why it took so much time for you. Like DLC itself it was 100% worth the wait. Here's my personal 5/5 list Botanic Panic, Ruse of an Ooze, Floral Fury, Honeycomb Herald, Admission to Perdition, Railroad Wrath, Gnome Way Out (I honestly expected you to love it, it is so energetic and fun track), Snow Cult Scuffle, Highnoon Hoopla and Baking the Wondertart. Not mentioning tracks that are 4 and above.
This is the first video ive ever watched from you! And what a first impression! You've earned a subscription, Michael! This is absolutely phenomenal!!! Also, for 1:38:18, the percussion and backing is from Ruze of an Ooze but the main melody of Firey Frolic. Firey Frolic's backing is slightly different than the version in Admission to Perdition.
I'm honestly a bit surprised that not more DLC tracks were in the top 10. I am honestly in love with Bootlegger Boogie, Doggone Dogfight, and, my favorite, Snow Cult Scuffle. Snow Cult Scuffle is fantastic, and I really love that xylophone/vibraphone solo that is then followed up by an amazing clarinet solo. Also, I just want to say that with Admission to Perdition, I feel like most of those motifs I'm not sure about, but one that I haven't seen anyone else point out is that the short melody immediately after the intro sounds kind of like a distorted version of the victory theme. Anyone else think so?
My Ranking Of The Full DLC OST: 1. Baking The Wondertart 2. High-Noon Hoopla 3. Doggone Dogfight 4. Bootlegger Boogie 5. The Key Ingredients 6. Gnome Way Out 7. Snow Cult Scuffle 8. A Chef's Coda 9. The Queen's Riguadon 10. Bourree On The Board (Knight) 11. Bourree On The Board (Pawns) 12. Bourree On The Board (Rook) 13. Bourree On The Board (Bishop) 14. Inkwell Isle Four 15. The Delicious Last Course 16. A Far Off Isle 17. The Finishing Touch 18. Triumphant Trio 19. Recipe For Ms Chalice 20. Chef Saltbaker 21. King Of Games' Castle (Rococo) 22. Porkrind's Provisions 23. One Hell Of A Dream 24. Inkwell Isle Four (Piano) 25. Joyous Promenade 26. Chef Saltbaker (Piano) 27. Joyous Promenade (Piano) 28. King Of Games' Castle 29. Prelude And Proclamation 30. An Ominous Stroll 31. An Ominous Stroll (Piano) 32. Caute Cave Mortem
This is honestly incredible. This must of tooken mounths. You deserve so much support and I can’t believe there’s only 4.6 likes! This easily deserves 1 millions views. Thank you
If I'm not mistaken, I think the piano (or piano adjacent, I should say) in the Queen's Riguadon is actually a harpsichord (probably just a Single Harpsichord, rather than a Double Harpsichord), which is a very similar instrument to a piano, and very popular during the Baroque period.
I can’t Bellevue it how has this not blown up already I’ve bin waiting on the edge of my seat for this ever since the dlc dropped. Also how much time did it take just to do the shots of you playing instruments.
I have to say man, I almost never comment on any videos I see, but I feel compelled to do so this time. This was an absolutely phenomenal video. The passion that you clearly put into this was so contagious that it was almost impossible for me not to want to dance along when the jam sessions came on. Ever since I got this game last year, I have been completely enamored with it, every part of it, but especially its soundtrack, and to finally find someone on UA-cam who is just as passionate about this soundtrack as me is such a great feeling. Keep making videos, man. If this video is any indicator of your channel quality, you are absolutely going places.
I was not expecting a feature length video from one of my favorite UA-cam channels but i enjoyed it the whole way through and it was the best notification to get after a busy work day
Unironically, this is become one of my favourite videos on youtube. idk what it is, but it makes me so happy to see someone gush about music like this.
The production of this video is super awesome all around! WELL DONE! I can't believe this video is this underrated, you'll grow big in the future for sure
1:49:26 Keep in mind that the first time everyone heard this song, was from a full Orchestra and the Flapper singers at Game Awards. That one was a homerun
okay this video is wonderful and you did an INCREDIBLE job on multiple accounts, this was a blast to watch and it genuinely looks like you had such a great time making it, which is something I really appreciate in watching a video like this. It is a love letter to this OST, which it deserves as it is genuinely one of my favourite albums of all time. One thing I feel like I'm not seeing enough praise for in the comments is your choreography during your instrumental breakdowns! Absolutely phenomenal (particularly your maracas during Floral Fury). Especially impressive to record and sync it multiple times over multiple instruments and angles! Really great stuff, a pleasure to watch.
I just wanna give a big shout out to how well this whole video was shot, like damn! you're telling me one person did this?! This is some great editing, and I am in awe at how much charm this video has.
I was going back to this channel today, because I thought: „That guy made the awsome Cuphead Video“, because the DLC came out and that was the best thing I could have done today. That was one of the most entertaining videos I’ve ever seen! The time went by so fast! The editing and the gags were phenomenal again! I smiled the whole video! :) That video was a experience I will definitely remember for a long time. Thank you for that Masterpiece! ⭐️
This video is too good and more people NEED to see it. My one complaint is I don’t think the thumbnail is eye-catching enough for people to click on, and the “Soundtrack dive” text on it could have more contrast. But editing wise there are no complaints. It baffles me that this whole video is so well edited throughout it’s almost 3 hour duration. Keep going man!
Great video, and congrats on being able to actually rank every song in this amazing OST. I enjoy Gnome Way Out a lot personally, but I do sorta wish they did a little more with the banjo(?) we hear at the beginning and I can see why you're not a fan of it.
I love your skits here! soon as you got jamming with botanic panic I was like YES!!!! Boss theme of the gods there! Absolute favourite and it’s the FIRST BOSS 🥰🥰❤️ Also I love railroad wrath sooo much and wish you mentioned the amazing chugga chugga sounds in there it’s hard to describe in words but it’s that steady pace the song gets as it transitions just mmmm Also, inkwell isle 4 main theme? BEST ISLAND THEME NOBODY CAN CHANGE MY MIND! Oh it’s too smooth ❤️
This was an amazing video, it was funny, high quality, and very entertaining! I will definitely have to give this soundtrack a listen, and maybe even a download! Can't wait for more, of course after a well deserved break!
I didn't hear this mentioned and I didn't see this in the comments either, so here goes. In Baking the Wondertart around the 2:29 mark, you can hear a of A Far Off Isle in the theme. I always loved how they added that in... It just adds to it being my favorite theme of them all.
I watched this entire video like 5 times. The editing is just amazing, I love your personality and I'm amazed that you made the video funny, entertaining and fun for the entire 3 hours. You deserve a lot more fame and recognition than you have. New sub man, you're amazing

Thank you, for being my (most of the time) favorite UA-camr ever. If all time
Good thing ur back bro
If you want a contender to the best videogame ost in history you should do Mother 3 :) actually Earthbound is also fine
Thanks for entertaining us, the one thing that separated you in a good light from other music reviewers is your crazily versatile music taste!

“I’m the Gayest in the land”
Made me laugh harder than I expected. Awesome content to be sure.
Me too! 😆
The "toy piano" in The Queen DLC song is called a harpsichord. It's used in royal-sounding music a ton 😁
Like Slim shady
Or the Mantis Lords
@@WL-bs4nc ye
Or doors
thought it was spinet
This dude has SO MUCH CHARM. I love it
For real
I relate to his energy
The sheer amount of editing and skits and solos thing you did in this video is Absolutely insane!
Even though it's 3 f#@$ing hours long, you made it fun to watch the entire time. Fabulous job man👌
How do you not have at least a billion subscribers, your editing, your clear yet exciting explanations for why love these songs, and your hat……gosh. Chefs kiss!
True
True
Missed opportunity for saying "Chef Saltbaker's kiss"
I think the same thing; his skills are unmatched.
2:35:58
I think it's says "Caute Cave Mortem" which is Latin & translates to
"Carefully guard against Death" or "Beware of Death" which...yeah is kinda Dark when you look at the Battle against Chef Saltbaker where he is essentially KILLING THE SAME INGREDIANTS YOU HAVE FOUGHT SO HARD TO RECEIVE & HAVE GIVEN TO HIM
OH THAT MAKES WAY MORE SENSE…
I just always thought it said ‘Cuphead. Mugman’ respectively aha-
I was thinking it says "Cuphead Mortem" aka "Cuphead death"
I thought it was saying Cuphead locked in.
At the end of the previous song, the voice chants "caute". Thats why I think this voice says "cave mortem" as a continuation of the previous song.
Here's my personal top 5
5. Carnival Kerfuffle: pretty good, but you made a good point about some of the solos being pretty unmemorable
4. One Hell of a Time: Fast paced and very fun
3. Floral Fury: Really well composed and fun
2. Doggone Dogfight: Has a nice sort of chill energy but is still intense, the end also slaps
1.Baking the Wonder Tart: Absolute masterpiece and fits the fight insanely well
My list is nearly the same except swap doggone dogfight for bootleggers boogie.
The end of Baking The Wonder Tart is so good
Swap wondertaet for High Noon Hoopla...and we are on the same track
I think the thing about the main game tracks that diminishes theur quality somewhat is the face that tgey were made on the fly, and then fitted to whatever boss it feels right for. This works most times, but falls flat for me sometimes. I'm not sure if it's the same way for the DLC, but the DLC tracks feel like they were made specifically for the bosses.
Where is high noon hoopla
One awesome little reference in One Hell of a Time that I don’t really see many people talk about happens at about 1:06 (at least in the OST version. Not sure about the in-game soundtrack). The trumpet solo at that part of the song is actually a returning leitmotif from the original version of the Die House theme, shown off in one of the very first trailers for Cuphead. Its just such a cool detail to have one of the first Cuphead songs made show up in one of the last.
In the jam out sessions, he could be playing the right notes and we would’ve had no idea.
Genuinely one of my favourite videos on UA-cam, you have such a charisma that so little UA-camrs have nowadays and that’s one of the many, MANY reasons I adore your content, keep up the fantastic work!
truuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuue
2:38:35 That "missing" portion actually plays also on Saltbaker's third phase, only if you manage to take that long to defeat him. It even plays to the very end, with the organ solo and the coda (without vocals). You can hear all of it on a Whetstone Only run.
Holy cow! I didn't completely enjoy Honeycomb Herald before, but seeing your jam out ( which I love the uncanny amount of ) to it gave me a new appreciation for it and I enjoy it significantly more! Nice!
Omg I’m so happy I could do that for you!!😄 Welcome to the Honeycomb Appreciation club!!
Michael's editing style and sense of humour will never get old to me, lol.
Can I just mention, how much it looks like he’s having mimicking the instruments in certain segments, like high-noon-hoopla
For the past year or so, I've been regularly searching youtube for a deep dive into the Cuphead soundtrack, but only managed to find brief rating videos. This video showed up on my frontpage today and I'm overjoyed that the exact thing I've been looking for is now out there! Thank you for making an extended three-hour deep dive to expand on your previous video, I will be putting some time aside tonight to watch it 💖
That means a lot to me brotha!! I’m so happy that I can provide you what been longing to see🙏❤️😁
No one can deny that "High-Noon Hoopla" is one of the best cuphead music.
Watch me:
I think High-Noon Hoopla is one of the messiest Cuphead songs. It's so disorganized and many parts of it feel like they should have come a measure earlier or a measure later. It's also very drawn out and much longer than it needs to be, and the super high pitched trumpet sounds very irritating imo.
That being said I can understand why one would like it because it's pretty unique compared to the other boss music. It's just not really for me.
@@nunyabizness8919its really unique and chaotic and its the themes gimmick
It's those last few measures where the band plays the main theme but varied just slightly and closes out on a glorious high...my goodness thay song
@nunyabizness8919 it is very very similar to if not a direct copy of big band western music...so it may not be a genre for you...
It's a 4.4 at best
I've only just finished the Floral Fury section of the video but I LOVE the energy you bring to your videos. You dancing along and jamming out to the songs as you talk about them just remind me of how I enjoy dancing to songs whenever I'm alone and there's no one to judge me how I can't dance. The Cuphead OST goes hard.
RIP that cane. Snapped before it reachced its prime.
Kristofer Maddigan is a genius for not only composing so many different tracks, but also still coming up with alternate versions to the solos of those hundreds of tracks.
Frl there's so many different solos for the songs
I mean the solo thing is more on the Players and not the Composer. But amazing Soundtrack none the less.
The skits and jam outs were great, honestly I'm jealous of how many musical instruments you have.
Fun Fact, Coin-op Bop (and High Score) was played on a hell of an instrument called the American Fotoplayer! its basically a piano, organ, marimba, drumset, and various wacky noise makers all lumped into a wall-covering cabinet. The machine also plays itself via paper piano rools, so the joke about the piano player having to keep up is moot. I love this thing!
HOLY HELL, HOW THE FUCK DID THE DEVS FIND ONE OF THOSE?! Seriously, those are very few and far between.
Man, i'm laughing so hard at 2:03:55 LOL
Still, keep up the good content Michael Jose, i haver never stopped watching your videos! ;)
(and i'm also grateful you like Railroad Wrath more now lol, it's my favorite boss and was one of my favorite themes before the DLC came out)
Hey, I think i figured why Bootlegger Boogie sounds so much like you're in the middle of a gang fight. I think it's because only the brass instruments are played so chaotically, because if you pay attention, the drums and piano are actually quite calm. It almost feels like you're inside a midnight bar that's falling apart. The brass instruments represent the Moonshine Mob.
Masterpiece. Probably the best video I've ever seen on UA-cam. Dude, you're a freaking legend. I have no words...
That High-Noon Hoopla part was ABSOLUTELY my favorite bit here, masterclass.
1:38:07
So, what happens here is like in the Clip Join Calamity and Carnival Kerfuffle.
The main melody playing is the Fiery Frolic melody, and in the background you can hear Ruse of an Ooze, it's hard to hear though... But if you pay enough attention you can hear it.
If you liked the clarinet solos in the game, then you should definitely check out the unused version of high seas hi-jinx, as it has an amazing clarinet solo a couple minutes in, which replaces the saxophone solo that is in the in game version.

The sheer DEDICATION, PASSION, AND QUALITY put in this video is PHENOMENAL
HOW ARE YOU ONLY AT 8.9K SUBS
This comment may sound cliche, but the production quality within the first song review is outstanding, something that I'd genuinely expect from a channel with at least 500K subscribers and five editors, so imagine my dismay when I saw your subscriber count sitting under 9K.

Keep the epic work up! This was absolutly worth the wait!
Nice profile pic
1:39:28
The Honeycomb Herald motif is actually that descending clarinet I think it is?
It plays during the trombone part at 1:10:54
Correct
19:15 originally this track was written for a planned underwater inkwell isle so that could explain the absurd length and would definitely explain the piano version
It doesn't make it more bearable 😣
HOW DID I NOT FIND THIS VIDEO BEFORE?! your presence in this video is so beloved and likeable!! you really caught my attention throughout the whole video!! especially your editing with the instruments, so well done!!!
55:49
As someone who has played the trumpet parts(mostly for fun tho)
I'd say the adrenaline you get from playing it greatly overpowers the exhaustion (at least for a while)
I've always struggled with high notes so the first time i got all of them for the first time was amazing
I've been a fan and singer of barbershop for almost 4 years now, and when I first saw this game open for the first time, needless to say I was overjoyed. Awesome video man, and damn this must've taken months of editing haha
This video is so good that I watched it for 2 hours straight the first time without even realizing. The sheer execution and editing alone make this one of the top videos on the platform, and you definitely need more support.
Im honestly so glad that you gave Honeycomb Herald the recognition that is deserves. It's truely a wonderful song and is so underrated
This entire video has so much work put into it! I love the comedy and acting. Thank you for not rushing this masterpiece video even with all the comments.
I can’t believe this doesn’t have way more views, the amount of effort that obviously went into making this video is incredible
I am one of those people who started to LOVE "Honeycomb Herald" just because of this video. Dude, this melody always seemed to me somehow boring and gloomy, but after this video, this is definitely one of my favourite track in this game. Thanks Michael
dude. this is one of the best, if not _the_ best music ranking video ive ever watched. you made it so entertaining for almost 3 HOURS its insane how much energy & effort you put into this. i enjoyed every moment, from the skits to the jam out sessions, and of course the review of the tracks & game itself. i may not agree with all the rankings, but you definitely have my respect. you're a very talented guy, & you definitely deserve a lot more recognition for your work. amazing stuff man, i really enjoyed this one & your older cuphead video as well !!
25:33 This man playing all those instruments really highlights how contagious the music is in this game
Excellent video as always! This game has an astounding soundtrack.
1:18 thanks for including me :)
2:14:13
Well to be fair, The Queen is known as the most powerful piece on the chess board.
The Queen may move through an unlimited of unoccupied squares in any direction-horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.
The Queen’s moves combine the moves of the rook and bishop, making it an extremely strategically useful piece.
Meanwhile The King can move one square in any direction.
It may not be the most powerful piece in chess, but it certainly is the most important. If you lose your King, you have lost the game.
This guy has the best energy! Awesome video
1:52:36 Also, in "A Far Off Isle" you can hear some clear leitmotifs used later in the climax of "Baking the Wondertart". So maybe MDHR's intention was to give subtle hints about the final boss.
Phenomenal. I was actually kind of worried to watch it, because I didn’t want to miss the new year, but I just ended up pausing the video like a sane person. Also, I was wondering, do you actually play some of the instruments that you sync to in the jam sessions, or are you just pretending? The video is awesome either way. Happy 2023, Micheal!
Happy New Year to you too my friend! No, I do not actually play a majority of the instruments you see me using in the videos. I played drums a little once upon a time and I can play a few songs on guitar, but that is it!
Honestly this wasn't a delicious last course. This was a Savory Delectable Finishing Final Meal
They called it that cuz it stands for Dlc
@@Spiralreddfr? I thought it was disgusting lick course!
@@molohadimolohadi3942 why?
@@Spiralredd you're pointing out the literal obvious
@@molohadimolohadi3942 yeah totally obvious since I heard that there were literally people who didn't know that for like two months after it came out
I swear to god we need a full movie for that war veteran scene.
Epic video my guy! I’ve always loved this games OST and it’s great to see you talking about it again after a year. I hope we get more out of this game soon.
Fantastic as always, man. One note, you don't have to worry about covering the ingame DLC songs. From what I can tell, the ingame and soundtrack variants are the same. That aside, this was astounding. Nearly 3 hours of work, filled with fun skits, hilarious jam sessions and an overall really nice ranking, and you STILL don't have a million subs yet?! Just for fun, I'll share my personal top ten.

I might be a lil late but idc this is honestly one of the best videos I’ve watched ever, the editing is so good, the jam sessions are fun, and god, I love the cup head ost so much I’m so glad I got to watch this amazing video, 5/5 cttmttatdlc
Wowww, I can't believe how long this must've taken you, it looks like SO much work and it really paid off. This is awesome, we appreciate you
This is a masterpiece. I always love the skits in your videos too, they’re always so filled with energy and life
I can't believe your channel has less than 100k, actually less than 10k?? Sounds like a straight up crime, especially considering how long this would have taken to practice the pieces, how many takes for the performances, and the editing. Ridiculously underrated, hopefully this video, and thusly your channel blows up soon!
Lmao I don’t actually play the instruments, I just try and look like I do. I still need to practice a little so I can make sure I’m hitting the instrument or moving the instruments at the appropriate times!
That and some sly editing, I would say the most difficult instruments to pretend play (make it look like I’m actually playing) are the drums followed by the piano.
Practicing everything I’m gonna play takes usually no more than 2 mins. I usually do multiple angles to ensure I can cut in case a shot didn’t look right.
And thanks for the flattering comment about 100k subs. I’m touched😁
@@YourboiMikeyJay are the instruments real??
@@FreshestCoolThey are yes! They’re just really cheap and probably don’t play as well as the more expensive ones!
@@YourboiMikeyJay wow. You sure got a lot of em. I swear, you need more subs.
@@FreshestCool Lol thanks brotha, I really really appreciate that!!❤️🙏
Clip Joint Calamity actually sounds like music you would hear in casino based stage in a fighting game, fitting given Ribby and Croaks are based on Ryu and Ken
Easily your best vid yet! Keep up the great work Michael and happy early new year.
Now I know why it took so much time for you. Like DLC itself it was 100% worth the wait. Here's my personal 5/5 list
Botanic Panic, Ruse of an Ooze, Floral Fury, Honeycomb Herald, Admission to Perdition, Railroad Wrath, Gnome Way Out (I honestly expected you to love it, it is so energetic and fun track), Snow Cult Scuffle, Highnoon Hoopla and Baking the Wondertart.
Not mentioning tracks that are 4 and above.
I hope you have a happy new year guys especially you Micheal
Oh btw my favorite in OG soundtrack is Fiery Frolic
It's not spelled "Micheal" its spelled "Michael"
Such a great video! Definitely was not expecting a 3-hour special!
Also rating Doggone Dogfight any lower than #1 is a crime 🔫
Yeah, it's #1 on my list though.
aviary action, railroad wrath, murine corps, and honey one are the GOAT songs
Excellent way to end the year, and to start the next.
I wish you a good new year, Michael. ;D
Your enthusiasm is so incredibly refreshing, love it
The man did it. He really did it.
Btw if anyone doesn’t know, there is a setting that changes the DLC opening to the original opening (title screen music). (If you purchased the DLC)
This is the first video ive ever watched from you! And what a first impression! You've earned a subscription, Michael! This is absolutely phenomenal!!!
Also, for 1:38:18, the percussion and backing is from Ruze of an Ooze but the main melody of Firey Frolic. Firey Frolic's backing is slightly different than the version in Admission to Perdition.
I'm honestly a bit surprised that not more DLC tracks were in the top 10. I am honestly in love with Bootlegger Boogie, Doggone Dogfight, and, my favorite, Snow Cult Scuffle. Snow Cult Scuffle is fantastic, and I really love that xylophone/vibraphone solo that is then followed up by an amazing clarinet solo.
Also, I just want to say that with Admission to Perdition, I feel like most of those motifs I'm not sure about, but one that I haven't seen anyone else point out is that the short melody immediately after the intro sounds kind of like a distorted version of the victory theme. Anyone else think so?
I agree. I also thought he would rank baking the wondertart 5/5 but it his opinion

@@deepcownewnosh thank you, for respecting by respect
@@robocfam4577 you're welcome
YES BAKING THE WONDERTART IS AMAZING, and fr an ominous stroll goes on the bottom
This is honestly incredible. This must of tooken mounths. You deserve so much support and I can’t believe there’s only 4.6 likes! This easily deserves 1 millions views. Thank you
Its actually 4600 not "4.6"
He meant 4.6k
If I'm not mistaken, I think the piano (or piano adjacent, I should say) in the Queen's Riguadon is actually a harpsichord (probably just a Single Harpsichord, rather than a Double Harpsichord), which is a very similar instrument to a piano, and very popular during the Baroque period.
I can’t Bellevue it how has this not blown up already I’ve bin waiting on the edge of my seat for this ever since the dlc dropped. Also how much time did it take just to do the shots of you playing instruments.
That took about 1 month😅
I have to say man, I almost never comment on any videos I see, but I feel compelled to do so this time. This was an absolutely phenomenal video. The passion that you clearly put into this was so contagious that it was almost impossible for me not to want to dance along when the jam sessions came on. Ever since I got this game last year, I have been completely enamored with it, every part of it, but especially its soundtrack, and to finally find someone on UA-cam who is just as passionate about this soundtrack as me is such a great feeling. Keep making videos, man. If this video is any indicator of your channel quality, you are absolutely going places.
Keep up the hard work and remember your awesome
I was anticipating for this video! Happy you finally reviewed the DLC tracks!
Love all the effort you put into this video!!
And I love your energy and OH MY GOD how many different instruments do you have 😂😂
I was not expecting a feature length video from one of my favorite UA-cam channels but i enjoyed it the whole way through and it was the best notification to get after a busy work day
I’m touched to hear that! Thanks so much bud!!❤
This video is amazing, Cuphead is truly a masterpiece
The cuíca solo at 36:25 is honestly the best part of the entire OST to me
I AM LEGIT SO HAPPY YOUR OPINION ON RAILROAD WRATH CHANGED!!!!! It's one of my favorites
The effort I’m already seeing in this video was more than enough to subscribe 😌 13:56
Unironically, this is become one of my favourite videos on youtube. idk what it is, but it makes me so happy to see someone gush about music like this.
The production of this video is super awesome all around! WELL DONE! I can't believe this video is this underrated, you'll grow big in the future for sure
1:49:26 Keep in mind that the first time everyone heard this song, was from a full Orchestra and the Flapper singers at Game Awards. That one was a homerun
okay this video is wonderful and you did an INCREDIBLE job on multiple accounts, this was a blast to watch and it genuinely looks like you had such a great time making it, which is something I really appreciate in watching a video like this. It is a love letter to this OST, which it deserves as it is genuinely one of my favourite albums of all time. One thing I feel like I'm not seeing enough praise for in the comments is your choreography during your instrumental breakdowns! Absolutely phenomenal (particularly your maracas during Floral Fury). Especially impressive to record and sync it multiple times over multiple instruments and angles! Really great stuff, a pleasure to watch.
I know I’ve already commented like 3 times but, this is amazing
I just wanna give a big shout out to how well this whole video was shot, like damn! you're telling me one person did this?! This is some great editing, and I am in awe at how much charm this video has.
I was going back to this channel today, because I thought: „That guy made the awsome Cuphead Video“, because the DLC came out and that was the best thing I could have done today.
That was one of the most entertaining videos I’ve ever seen!
The time went by so fast!
The editing and the gags were phenomenal again! I smiled the whole video! :)
That video was a experience I will definitely remember for a long time.
Thank you for that Masterpiece! ⭐️
This video is too good and more people NEED to see it. My one complaint is I don’t think the thumbnail is eye-catching enough for people to click on, and the “Soundtrack dive” text on it could have more contrast. But editing wise there are no complaints. It baffles me that this whole video is so well edited throughout it’s almost 3 hour duration. Keep going man!
Great video, and congrats on being able to actually rank every song in this amazing OST. I enjoy Gnome Way Out a lot personally, but I do sorta wish they did a little more with the banjo(?) we hear at the beginning and I can see why you're not a fan of it.
musician myself I love your take and sense of humor also editing top tier. Also as a jazz trumpet player my favorite is introduction 100%
The guy with a straw during the Floral Fury skit killed me. Keep up the great work man
Ive been waiting for this!
I love your skits here! soon as you got jamming with botanic panic I was like YES!!!! Boss theme of the gods there! Absolute favourite and it’s the FIRST BOSS 🥰🥰❤️
Also I love railroad wrath sooo much and wish you mentioned the amazing chugga chugga sounds in there it’s hard to describe in words but it’s that steady pace the song gets as it transitions just mmmm
Also, inkwell isle 4 main theme? BEST ISLAND THEME NOBODY CAN CHANGE MY MIND! Oh it’s too smooth ❤️
I love watching all the jam sessions!!!
This was an amazing video, it was funny, high quality, and very entertaining! I will definitely have to give this soundtrack a listen, and maybe even a download! Can't wait for more, of course after a well deserved break!
this may be my favorite review or rank of anything cuphead related video ever
5/5 video! so fricking gooooodddd!
I didn't hear this mentioned and I didn't see this in the comments either, so here goes. In Baking the Wondertart around the 2:29 mark, you can hear a of A Far Off Isle in the theme. I always loved how they added that in... It just adds to it being my favorite theme of them all.
this video has no reason to have so few dislikes compared to view count- phenomenal editing and bits I loved every second of this
I watched this entire video like 5 times. The editing is just amazing, I love your personality and I'm amazed that you made the video funny, entertaining and fun for the entire 3 hours.
You deserve a lot more fame and recognition than you have. New sub man, you're amazing
