Hello again, Calamity enthusiasts! As you may have already seen, "Scourge of The Universe" is now complete. Give it a listen here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y7mpoZSer7zYZ4k.html I'll be taking some time to purge Calamity comments here, as they aren't exactly relevant to Cave Story. Really sorry about this decision, but I hope you understand.

It's sad that everyone is just saying "lol calamity bells funi" and nobody is just talking about how fucking amazing this sounds, from the beginning you were a legend DM DOKURO.

Even back in 2014 he had those bells! I love how well this builds on the original theme, and the chiptune parts are amazing!

Theme of “I’ve already lost 80% of my health to the Blood Stained Sanctuary, now you want me to fight a boss without a save point?!”

2014: Wow, what a neat remix of a Cave Story song. 2017: _W O R M B O S S_

The fact that this didn't get as much attention as the undertale stuff you did concerns me, considering the level of quality present here. This is beautiful

this is a perfect example for "like father, like son" with Last Battle is the father and the DoG theme is the son

Old song, but I feel like I can hear a lot of things here that inspired the theme of DoG. Also, gotta say this is a sick remix. Much better than any remix I've ever heard of Cave Story. Good to see that you always were a *sick as hecc* musician.

Holy shit. HOLY SHIT Hands down my favorite cave story remix project, that includes the official remasters. This needs more exposure!

Finally. A song that feels like an epic final battle, didn't forget what the original melody sounded like, and it even has an added bonus of giving you the feeling that "this moment is what I've been fighting for!!!". 2015/10. Or higher. The most feels I've felt in a while.

If I ever make a game, I want this guy to be in charge of the soundtrack!!!

I pity ballos, i *_REALLY_* do. Betrayed, tortured, driven to madness, then sealed away, only wanting the release of death, but too mad to kill himself.

This is, by far, the greatest last battle version I have ever heard. Amazing song.

This music makes me feel like I should create more accounts to like this video.

Finished Cave Story recently as a long-time Calamity fan and finding this was like a birthday present I never knew about

This... This is INSANE. AND IN A GOOD WAY. HOLY CRAP, YOU DESERVE MASSIVE PROPS.

It's this kind of music that makes me stoked for this game all over again. I feel pumped enough to try beating Ballos again. *half-hour later* Welp, still not beaten ;_;

Some of your best work, I just keep coming back, even years later

Wonderful remix: really emphasizes the culmination of things riding on this battle. Not only everything Quote has done, but also all the stories and losses required by the other chars. The true meaning of "This means everything."

*Goes to school *Realizes who my Best Friend is hearing a epic theme *He shows me Cave Story *Questioned to myself why i didn't know the game before *Plays Cave Story,loved the game Thank you for this masterpiece Mr.Dokuro (ik its DM xD)

I've loved the Cave Story soundtrack forever, but you've turned it into nothing short of ear-porn. Amazing work.

For whom the bells toll

Magnificent. It's astonishing how well you blended the other boss themes into the mix too, I don't think anyone's thought to doing that in the past. Every instrument is on point, and the new original segments of the song fit in seamlessley. I'm proud to have the album.

Final battle themes are ALWAYS better with big bells. Amazing arrangement!

The fact that this sounds like Scourge of the Universe makes me feel like this song inspired The Devourer of Gods' theme. I love it!!!

I haven't played cave story, but now I want to.

I love how this song inspired Scourge of the Universe, I didn't even realize it until just now!

Having played through Cave Story and the true ending just last night, it's always a lovely treat to come back to this album. I love a lot of the work you've done, but Cave Story Arranged holds a special place in my nostalgic heart. It is hard to imagine who I was when I was 14 and how the music you created shaped how I thought of arranged music.

I still consider this to be some of your best work, dude. This track just.. Oooh it makes me feel good

I have been listening to a ton of your stuff lately and gotta say, hits different. Seriously appreciate your songs that contain combinations of orchestra while still including electronic beats. I do understand I'm a Calamity clone but you have to realize there is a ton of us for a reason. Looking forward to more work produced! Hopefully I can see it in more games or remixes 👍

Godlike.

I have been such a big fan of your music for a long time, from Cave Story- to Clamity. Thank you.

I have never played cave story, and have no idea for the context of this song, but DANG is it one of the most epic songs I’ve ever heard. Truly a masterpiece, and an extremely well executed remix, that I can still feel the intensity and desperation of the fight. Great work!

Words cannot describe how amazing this is

Looks like this work of art finally hit 1 million views. Well deserved!

God, when the mimiga village theme comes in, I get shivers. No joke.

I love how epic and fitting this is. ^w^ I can see an animation idea here, I can see Quote and Curly flying through the catacombs fighting a sorrowful Ballos

All the last battle remixes remind me of DoG's music damn DM DORUKO with their beautiful music Thank you very much for giving me a lot of entertainment and a large number of songs. You are a great person and if at some point the creators of calamity mos add the final battle against Yharim I hope his music is created by you, thank you, DM DORUKO.

It's criminally underrated

This is definitely my favorite Cave Story remix. Nice work DM Dokuro! I especially love the use of bells in the song.

A lot of people told me that I should play this game. After hearing your remix I decided to play it. THANKS, DM DOKURO! THANKS!!!

This is easily one of the best songs I’ve ever heard oml I love it

2:13 Just one word, Masterpiece

You, My Sir, deserve a lot more subs and recognition for your amazing work

I listened to this and I swear, scourge of the universe follows such a similar pattern to this one it's insane! bravo :)

Dude your work has a constancy of amazingness!

2:34 i love the inclusion of Gestation, the theme of the first area in the game. as well as the best part of Gravity right after.

It keeps the 8-bit feel while also being at least three times as epic. This is the best.

I'm surprised at how many times I have skipped this video and not recognize how FUCKING beautiful this sounds

DEM BELLS BRUH

When you trying to listen to music but then an ad interrupts it... **B E R S E R K E R M O D E**

Ah still the best version of this song you made, really really well made, Cave Story deserves this kind of love

This captures the essence of the fight so well.

I hear everything that you took inspiration from to craft the devourer's theme. Same instruments, similar sections, similar drum patterns, It really feels like father and son like other people stated. That said, I honestly regret discovering your music unrelated to calamity later than I could've. I love your music and style as much as I love Toby Fox's. You're both geniuses on a similar level, despite a comparison between you two being almost impossible.

This is one of the most juiciest songs I have ever heard

It’s everything I love in a Boss Battle Theme, Thank You

An inspirational and classical remix. That's what I liked to see in a last battle like this.

Oddly, this goes good while playing that google dino run game

Very, very nice. You're good at what you do, bud.

I can't breathe This is so great! I hear all the other boss songs and it's just ahhhhhhhh

I have to say DM your arrange of this OST is really good. I enjoyed using it as a mod for my game doing a 3HP run. These tracks work incredibly well on hard or 3HP run.

The beginning sounds like a final boss theme of a 2005 - 2010 Sonic game. Strings + escalating Drums Neat.

Surprised there are still people who remember Cave Story to this day X3 I love the mix, btw! I gotta be honest, though, Ballos was fucking hard to beat. XD

Been listeni.g to this since you dropped it and it is still the best remix ive ever heard

dm dokuro hands down is a good person, he's really good with what he makes. I wish I could be as good as him.

This song inspired me to beat hardmode, very thanks Dokuro!

Sounds like a expert mode last battle

0:45 absolutely heavenly, I keep coming back to this part to this day

Dm dokuro thank you for all the cool songs

God I still love this song years later,,, Your older compositions like this, Reality Check Through the Skull and Garden still hold up well compared to stuff like the glass structure songs and the mini Cerberus remix. God your music is just

Last comment i'ma make tonight but wow. This is the first track I ever heard from Dokuro and since then i've always loved his music. Now about the game, boy oh boy Ballos, what a guy! Convinced by Misery into creating the demon crown and accidentally destroyed everything even his own family in the process, being too powerful for his own good. I feel bad for Ballos, as soon as you meet him the only thing he wants, is for you to succeed in putting an end to him, even if his untamed power, malice and sorrow prevent him from standing by to accept death, he gives the fight everything he has while pushing you to overcome him and free him of his immortal torment.

coming back here after playing cave story once again after not playing in years just makes me relive some old fucking memories man. I aprecciate the existance of this theme, and the entirety of Cave Story Arranged :)

So glad someone thought of adding a ballos variation, always felt off that he didn't get his own final theme

If there is EVER a fanmade remake on unreal engine this NEEDS to be included, Also the others!!!!

If this isn't boss music I don't know what is

Been looking for good music for a while, downloading all of these because WHY NOT?

Considering the age, I'm glad I found this before it was over a year old. This one is going into the books.

damn, listening to this made me realize that cave story is actually amazing

I was listening to this for like 2 hours while doing my school work.

The sheer power of this song is just amazing! I hope when he do a cave story reboot for Project NX I hope Nicalis uses your soundtrack! Your soundtrack is beast to the max!

Total VIBE. Great job!

This is sooooooo goood!

what da DoG doin

this is a BANGER! great work

THE EPICNESS IS TOO MUCH!

Not only has calamity come a long way, but the Legend DM DOKURO has too! Ps: love ya DM!

0:27 and 1:15 are absolute bangers, you can’t change my mind

how could anyone Dislike this? this is truly a masterpiece!

DUDE. This series of yours is quality content. Love it to its core! (That joke tho)

its so weird to hear my two most favorite games mixed together. it works well, which impresses me. (mostly because the two are so drastically different from each other.)

Imagine a time where sombody from about 3 years from where this was created is still watching this non stop I do 👁 W 👁

This song makes my ear cry tears of joy

Listening back to this, it actually sounds good. I thought it sounded weird, but I actually like it now.

this shits so good even undertale fans love it

MY FAVORITE SONG IN THE WORLD I LOVE IT

This is still one of my favorite songs of yours

Still is, to this day, an absolute BANGER.

0:02 Is a real charge up

*Been playing cave story for years* *Still can’t beat Ballos*

My favorite cave story remade masterpiece!
