And now, a song that fits like a glove for this year’s Halloween Special: a duo remix of Grimm and Nightmare King from Hollow Knight!
These 2 songs are usually requested together, so I had planned to tackle them both at once if and when I got around to it. These songs (when combined) were in the top 10 most requested songs from the 2019 GaMetal Song Ballot, and Hollow Knight was the #2 most requested series that we haven’t covered a song from yet.
For this remix, I took a bit of a different approach than usual: the lead Guitar plays mostly an assist role here, while the Pipe Organ is up front for a lot of the song. It was such a key component to the original, I couldn’t bare to push it to the back and guitar everything up.
I tried to go for a symphonic black metal feel, ala Dimmu Borgir, or whatever it is the kids listen to these days.
Also, as is now our tradition, our Halloween Special features a special guest in the video: the Knight!
