Chef Saltbaker himself is also an unbelievably gorgeous piece of animation, it's an absolute shame that the fight is hard as nails so it's difficult to appreciate while playing.

FINALLY SOMEONE WHO REALIZES THE ORCHESTRAL GENIUS OF THIS SONG, IT CAPTIVATES THE VILLANY AND CRUELTY OF CHEF SALTBAKER WHILE ALSO WORKING AS A GREAT FINAL SEND OFF TO THE CUPHEAD SERIES (sorry I just think this song is villan musical perfection and chef saltbaker belongs in an old disney film as a villan)

Cuphead's artistry is almost (if not entirely) unmatched. I've never played it because I know my limits (lol) but I'm FASCINATED by every aspect of it. Like you said, the music is so unique, I love jazz so much, this ost is like a bunch of Xmas gifts. As a Brazilian I have to be cliche and say Floral Fury is my favorite theme with its VERY ACCURATE 20s style samba with cuícas and everything. There isn't a single bad song in this ost! ❤️

Chef Saltbaker is such a cool bossfight. The way the first phase incorporates all the ingredients you've been collecting so far was really cool to see and the last phase? A giant salt tornado? That was one of the most visually pleasing bosses in a videogame.

I never realized how different the song was listening to it by itself than listening to it in the context of the game (Listening to it while playing the game).

"Ah i gotta catch my breath" thats basically how the fight feels

It's a fine day for a swell battle! Ready? *WALLOP!*

What will really cook your noggin is how in the first few tracks, they hint at the motif of the final boss. That all is not well and sinister things lurk below. Then you hear this track and you realize it's all been building to this. Subtle hints in a very Disney sort of manner of what's to come.

I love the fact that the first half is great, but it picks up even more in the second half, it actually gives me the chills

Finally someone reacting to Cuphead OSTs. Cuphead has literally one of the best OST list of all games. I can't think of a "boring" song or something. Devs literally hired a big band, with most/all of the instruments being "organic". And even so that's one of the few reactions I have ever found for some reason.

I love the organ. It's such an expressive instrument. I LOVE the style of Cuphead, and musically, just the fact they brought back barbershop trios is

Boss's animations r really neat. Its mesmerizing to watching them change phases. Oh boy! Cant wait to see what *monstrosity* they r gonna turn into next.

4:05 Fun analogy (NOT BY ME) is that notice how the Jazz slowly comes in and grows louder as the fight progresses symbolical of how you're beating Chef Saltbaker and starting to pull through

Ngl, this track goes harder than it has any right to. Even still, it I expected it to go hard but wow.

I saw the title and I was like "Oh YES!". And it's a freaking salt shaker. 🧂

Kristofer Maddigan is an absolute genius

As an old soul. I LOVE this style of music. It’s better than anything currently main stream IMO. As someone that regularly listens to Nina Simon, Billy Holiday, Frankie and of course Louis Armstrong to name a few. I LOVE CupHead and the music style. It’s is so so good and satisfying.

i finally joined your discord to really get on top of the uploads, best decision ive ever made. did not expect the cuphead content but theres definitely so much good music to dissect her

How have I never seen a rhythm game chart for this!?!? It's so perfect for a high dificulty noodles + rice chart... (Noodles = Long/Hold Notes, Rice = "Spam"/Gap Notes)

This song definitely took me by surprise, so fitting for a final battle, much better than the devil's.

Amazing song. This is my first time actually ever hearing it. I like the classical jazz feeling it gives with it's brass and such. But it's so unique on it's own. Definitely not something you hear in ANY other video game OST. Completely unrelated to add as well. I do not know where to exactly "suggest" songs but i'd love to hear your reaction and thoughts on the song "Roland - Library of Ruina" It's a fantastic piece of music with beautiful violin play and piano play all at work in it. I cannot recommend it enough for I feel you'd enjoy it very much. Either way! Love the videos Marco and your thoughts on music. You really are a unique youtube channel and I cannot wait to see what is in store for the future!

There is no chance I would ever expect this music was from Cuphead

The animation... The music... EVERYTHING PERFECT!

4:55 ...need I say more? 🤩🤩🤩

In some parts i could actually picture this as being the OST for a major Final Fantasy boss fight.

Now that's a really great suprise. I love Cuphead's music and this theme is one of the best themes in the game, the intro sequence with a choir is the best part for me. By the way, would you be interested in checking out Pizza Tower music? It doesn't have any real meaning behind it (game doesn't have any real lore), so it may be not really worth your time, but some of the themes are soooo epic. Especially "Bye bye there"

Should let your opera singer and conductor friends hear this amazing piece… Also…would love to see you take on so many of songs…Howdown Hoopla, Bootlegger Boogie, Doggone Dogfight…all kinds of amazing…as are you!

Cuphead's music is an all time favorite of mine.

Marco dancing to Cuphead just made my Monday 😌

Yes, a Cuphead review!! This was one of my requested games and now I feel sated. Hopefully you get the chance to listen to, or maybe even play Touhou in the future too although I'd understand if you don't want to or can't rn

This is my favourite music so far, thanks for reacting to it

Yeah, baking the wondertart has gotta be my favourite cuphead song tied with High-noon hoopla

The song that plays when private from penguins of Madagascar has had enough

Oh!? I knew I forgot a soundtrack!! Cuphead is such a phenomenal game! And this DLC is a banger!! And DAAAM!! THIS SONG IS PHENOMENAL!!!

This piece feels like it blended together the music style Cuphead uses with a JRPG final boss track.

This game is full of incredible music.

That's probably my favourite boss fight in the game, even though there are so many amazing ones to pick from.

Would love to see more breakdowns of more Cuphead tracks! Great video!

If you love the organ in this you'll love "confrontation" from spiral knights ^^ so unexpected from that games soundtrack

WOw jazz at its greatest! I love it. Never played cause not my style but i heard about the game but wow!

I dont know why and how but this Song captures the fight against Saltbaker very Well, The agressive and smooth Nature behind the music is great the Song gives Off the vibes you have of Saltbaker very Well The music feels manipulative and Strong, Just how Saltbaker is, this isnt music anymore, its Not even a great Game anymore, this is ART in every Look of this great artistical music piece its ART

One of my all time favorite video games and video game scores! It's so epic in all of the best ways!

I really can't stop thinking of Lionel Hampton when that music plays

Hi Marco, just wanted to share that a new game is out called Have a Nice Death, and the music in that game is actually amazing , maybe you'd give it a try . Keep being awesome

wonderful video as always

This soundtrack is genuinely _almost_ perfect. Whilst I myself personally find the later parts of it to be sligthly forgettable when paired up against the unbelievably memorable OST of this beautiful game, the first half ABSOLUTELY carries this piece and is genuinely iconic. The vibraphone and violin in the second phase part *(**1:00* and onward) of it go unimaginably hard and have a weirdly cosmic and astral feel (Ironically enough that's also a part in the fight where you're lifted way high up, probably that was the intention?), which I absolutely adore, I really can't believe that the vibraphone was played *LIVE,* like holy shit it's so fast-paced and ludicrous! The organ and overall sinister mood and feel in the first phase part also go extremely hard. If the general quality (Subjective thing to say, I know, I do agree that the quality is great even in the second half) and memorability aspect was consistently kept up throughout the entire song, then I would have not hesitated one second to call it one of the single greatest pieces of music in the history of video games, but even with its slight shortcomings in mind, it is a damn musical masterpiece given to us by a genius. It is truely insane how seriously the developers took the music of this game, and I for one am ABSOLUTELY all for it.

When chef salt baker is in his second phase of his song it is so bop bru

Ngl, the thing I like about Baking the Wondertart, especially Phase 3's part, is how full-circle it works Saltbaker's deceit into its very fabric. This isn't the Devil, a knowingly malicious force the Cups got tragically indebted to. This is a being that was lying to you about the deal he made from the START - a cheery, overly helpful facade hoping to make Miss Chalice alive again, only to become a cackling, cruel colossus who's planning to dominate reality itself and use your MC's severed *heads* as the vessels. And that Stage Three part of BTW being a dark reprisal of A Far Off Isle's stinger brings that home. Saltbaker's literally taking the theme that brought you to his part of the Isles *and twisting it against you*. Absolutely perfect theme to close the Cuphead series in general and his fight in particular on.

Are you gonna listen to CROWNED from Kirby's Return to Dream Land? If you are, I recommend you listen to the remastered version.

The music from this piece makes me think about the genre of klezmer music! Because it sounds so similar.

Great reaction! I’m glad you enjoyed the music.

Love your vids man your analysis are very entertaining. I think you would love the library of ruina soundtrack its full of bangers.

Cuphead music is so deliciously (heh) complex, one of my personal favorite OSTs!

Well, I think someday you should check Hotline Miami soundtrack

We play this whit our orchestra…. Its amazingggg especially the vibraphone solo! (At Spotify at 1: 14 )

Cuphead is the one of video game song you should introduce your girlfriend to first in my opinion

3:43 I am so used to hearing this part of the song

Pizza Tower OST - Tombstone Arizona (Wasteyard)

Please check out the song Dissociative Identity from the game Killer7. Even if you don't make a video about it, I think you'd really like the song and the meaning behind it.

Hey Marco! Can you react at Ys franchise soundtrack? I sugest begin with "Sunshine Coastline" from Ys 8: Lacrimosa of Dana. Thanks for always bring us awesome videos and reactions.

you should listen to the lyrics version of it

Badass edit. How many deaths until you got it?

Can you please cover some Darkwood soundtracks? Maybe Dawn.

Try do the one by rced tell me IT'S AMAZING (one lyric"baking the wondertate is such a simple task..." )

《promise》from Silent Hill 2 please！

I implore you to listen to The All-Father from God of War Ragnarök. I’d love to hear your thoughts on it

Ok, this isn't related to cuphead buuuuuut Hammer of Thor?

A small feedback from a random viewer about the editing, clips of people mimicking motion like this 6:21 feel kinda off in between the vibe of the channel, the clips of gameplay and instruments being played from time to time is great 'tho

Man, you reviewed do many coold soundtracks. I love your vids and i hope you'll checkout Steam version of Dwarf Fortress OST. I guarantee you no regrets.

could you react to Super Smash bros Brawl : final destination please. I absloutely love this piece and it's so memorable

Could you listen to the music of OMORI? The soundtrack is godly. Here are some that you could listen to: SUNNY, Underwater Prom Queens, and BREADY STEADY GO.

When are you doing moon halo honkai impact 3rd
