8-bit Music Theory | Bloodborne’s Best Boss Theme? || Music Theory Analysis @8bitMusicTheory | Uploaded January 2024 | Updated October 2024, 4 days ago.
Ludwig's theme from the Bloodborne: Old Hunters DLC captures everything that's great about the Souls series' music. The piece bounces between eerie dissonances, somber melodies, and huge dramatic builds with effortless fluidity, while also adding an emotional context to the fight that deepens our understanding of the character without any explanation necessary. Let's take a look and see if we can see just why Ludwig's music is so beloved.
