    People wanted Jesper Kyd and Blood Money, I'd say this is a pretty great callback to both of them.
    Didn't feel inspired with the timestamps names, besides that cheeky Silent Assassin reference.
    Next main level upload will be Whittleton Creek, my personal favorite.

    It's really hard to pick which level has my favorite music in the game--Nielsen did a spectacular job through and through--but maybe it's the Isle of Sgàil that takes the cake.
    The smooth intro from the Introduction theme to the At The Gates theme eases you into the level's gloomy atmosphere without you even noticing it. The recapitulation of the Mission Accomplished theme--which I like to refer to as the ICA leitmotif--along with the castle looming in the distance gives you a strong feeling of finality. This is what the entire game has built up to. You're at the last mile now. It's almost as if the familiar ICA leitmotif, juxtapositioned with the apprehensive Isle of Sgàil strings, is encouraging you to give it your all in the home stretch.
    The music of the castle--both the upper and lower levels--sounds dark, sinister, and wicked. The society itself could probably described as such; the moody castle themes are fitting for the Ark Society, which literally runs the world from the shadows. They turn the tides as they wish, even though they are just a drop in the ocean. I like to think that the chanting is an interpretation of the Ark Society's pride; they're all confident that they're the best the world has to offer since they essentially hold all of its power. As such, it may not be a stretch to say they might think of themselves as gods. Gregorian chanting is used in church music, and the word "sanctus" appears very frequently in the chanting; "sanctus" means "holy." But that's just what I think.
    The Confronting the Constant theme captures the tension of leading the Constant to the exit very well. The instruments--or lack thereof, save for the heartbeat and the trembling strings in the background--makes my shoulders tense up when I hear it in game. You've got the Constant--the key to dismantling Providence--as your hostage. You're leading him past crowds of unknowing people; he could easily run for help, compromising the entire plan to rid him of all his power, except he can't. One of the world's most powerful men is at your mercy, and you can't afford to fail now.
    And the reward for your hard work? The glorious Exfiltration theme. When I hear Sgàil's variation of the Mission Accomplished theme, I imagine Ark members in the dungeon cells, chanting and banging on the cell bars. That combined with the violins makes it feel kind of angelic; it's like a heavenly choir has descended to sing your praises.
    TL;DR, the Isle of Sgàil has some real bangers.
    Its soundtrack being used in the 7DS Lust level is the only reason it's my favorite lol

    I’m pretty sure they’re speaking in latin, I wonder what they’re saying though

    Does anyone know what the track is being played when you enter the bar in the beginning? Its the one being performed by a pianist and cello on stage?

    Is this only on CZcams. Or can the music be found somewhere else.

    Does it include the song we hear during the mission briefing? I can't find it.

    • @Salem33

      Mission briefing music never is included in my mixes as it is part of the briefing video itself and would have to be isolated (I don't know where to find the readable file anyway).
      However it usually is a remix or different take on one of the themes playing in the level, for example Janus' house theme in Whittleton Creek. So you can still listen to something close enough here.

    I associate this mission with a movie "Eyes Wide Shut".

    The ambiance in this mission was amazing. But a little bit too clean. Those hitman miss some "dirt" we had in the previous hitman (the butcher house for instance). Like the vilains aren't that vilains.
