[cralo]

when you're contemplating life waiting for deadbolt 2

[Shadow_Bush]

I can't tell you how much I love Deadbolt. I've listened to the soundtrack countless times and it's my favorite song. It's a great job, Chris, thank you.

[Sketchy]

This is both heroic and depressing at the same time...

[khorneflakes]

4:00 here it is. Can you feel it? That spark of earousal transitioning to a blazing eargasm. That's music.

[シヨウウトウ]

In my mind came the picture of driving alone in the heavy rain at night. The wiper wipes the rain on the glass, and the light shines through the rain to the front of the road.

So, I was just re-downloading from Bandcamp the updated files for the RoR2 Ost, when it just felt right to click on DEADBOLT for some reason. I barely remembered the game existed.
I get welcomed by Ashes to Ashes (to ashes) and think, man this is groovy! I keep listening, it looped back to Now I am Become Death, and I just keep getting more and more amazed by how well different styles are blended one after the other seamlessly, jamming like it was music I've listened to for years
After listening to the whole set, purchasing it for double the price still felt like a steal, and I'll probably have to send some copies to friends as gift if I want to feel even with Mr. Christodoulou

[Ashirlevi]

God the final solo still sends shivers down my whole body. Every. Single. Time.

[Aquaterrius]

The synth lead at 2:33 easily has to be one of my favorite moments from this entire album.

[devilsownweaponhaha]

This is currently my favorite track from Deadbolt.

[OmegaMkVII]

This song came up in a playlist while working and thought this theme was really good, went to check out the video and come to find out it was from none other than Chris Christodoulou, never stop making great music, this instantly reached the top favorites for me!

[Frayo]

This song sounds absolutely amazing. Somehow I have the picture in my head of a man walking home after a long day of work when listening to this. What did you have in mind when you made this, Chris?

[sol_ARG]

This song has a very faint Nuclear Throne-esque vibe to me. I think it's the guitar.

It's also freakin' incredible. Well done!

[kingofthemoon]

I love your work, Chris. I've been digging your music since Risk of Rain, and got Deadbolt as soon as I saw they had you doing the music again. You're damn good, don't let anyone tell you otherwise!

[APKAK-]

Hands down the most welcoming/depressing song I've heard.

[Zebo]

Man, at first I undervalued this game and the soundtrack.


At some point, I gave this OST a listen through and fell in love. Even with all the awesome work you're doing with Risk of Rain 2 at the moment, I still came back here. You're a master of musical compositions.

[TheOwlGilga]

Holy shit Chris you absolute mad man, felt like listening to your music again and usually I go back to stuff I jammed my ears shut with, without enjoying it as much as I did when I first discovered it but this song has such a wonderful composition like how the elec that the songs begins with goes into the background and then the drums kick in, the synthesizer theremin sounding thing sounds like a voice. The main guitar also has a really chill feeling to it.
The songs how they are based on parties from different time periods/genres really nail it, all of them and how the Deadbolt theme always hits in the end and fits into the song.

Can't wait for your next project!

[artistadam]

This part in particular (3:21) makes me think of finally findincg closure of something that took so long and hard to deal with, kind of like this entire ordeal with Reaper and Ibzan

[NullCipherZero]

Christos Spirakis's guitar _really_ howls in this one. so emotional! I love this piece so much, gentlemen!

[rectaalborween]

4:04
Oh shiiiit, this is where the beat drops!*VOLUME 100% READY TO ROCK*
*calm music*
:| why do you do this Chris?Do tortured souls really taste that good?

[djweegeenyc]

This song reminds me of my dog who is no longer alive. I sob uncontrollably whenever I hear this song now.
