Of the soundtrack, composers SONYA BELOUSOVA & GIONA OSTINELLI say, "The best part of scoring THE WITCHER was the constant stream of unlimited creative opportunities this unique and vast universe provided. We wrote and produced songs, score, folk tunes, and dances, collaborated with virtuoso soloists and incredible artists, recorded unique one-of-a-kind historical instruments, many of which were crafted specifically for THE WITCHER, as well as personally performed and recorded over 60 instruments. So when the soundtrack and our song "Toss A Coin To Your Witcher" went viral immediately after the show's release and topped the charts globally, we were absolutely blown away by such a phenomenal reception. Wow!"

Omg no wonder you weren't posting, too busy being a legend 😎👏🏻
hahah well said!
I concur
Please, please, please do "Her Sweet Kiss/Every Time You Leave" as well. I would absolutely love that
Sonia Belousova...The return of a CZcams legend. I watched all of your videos, with "Guile's Theme" and "Star Wars Medley" being two of my favorites. Glad to know you're associated with big media projects. Your talent was bound to take you far.
What a masterpiece. Thank you for sharing the process of the creation for this song, really interesting!
Not only was this an amazing breakdown, but highly educational for someone like me who isn’t that knowledgeable in music!
I also love "The Time of Axe and Sword is Now", the baseline gives me chills! Excellent work, this is a fantastic soundtrack and album.
It's been forever! But I'm the happiest to find out that Sonya is the one behind the song I always find myself singing without even knowing, and in one of my fave game series adaptation at that. Nerd and great musician, Sonya is the best
I really like the breathing rhythms added... reminds me of Depeche Mode songs, of all the things to be reminded of lol
This video is criminally underviewed
It's crazy to realize that there are so many different layers I'd never imagine were always there
When I first heard this song, I loved it so much, I quick went and picked up the soundtrack on Amazon. I sat and listened to it over and over one afternoon until I had it committed to memory. Thank you so much for this deep dive into its composition, Sonya! I found it to be just as riveting!
WOW!!!! No idea this was your song!! Great job Sonya. Love EVERYTHING you do!!
You’re the reason why my playlist is half hurdy gurdy now!
I would LOVE an “Her sweet kiss” analysis.
Amazing! Can not wait for a similar video for "Burn Butcher Burn".
Chorus are very beautiful
I love this type of video that describe the anatomy of a song, it's very interesting thanks !
It's really interesting to see you dive into all of the little details and history of this track that I had stuck in my head for weeks. I hope you have a good rest of your day
Thank you, thank you, thank you for doing these breakdown videos. I will watch every video posted for every song breakdown from The Witcher. You are brilliant and I can’t wait to watch the next video!
D-minor is the best key in the history of ever so good choice there 😊
I don't have a background in music and I have to say: I learnt so much from this video! It's amazing to see what goes into creating a "pop" song that works with the flow of a scene, and I also love your energy! Also thanks for explaining everything so clearly :D
constantly blown away by this talent
Id listen to you talk about the entire soundtrack!!
My personal favourite piece of music from the show is that low calm moment when geralt and king foltest talk outside the castle. It's very beautiful and just really puts the scene on another level. Thank you both for your amazing work on the show!
I really like that music.
Thanks for such a detailed breakdown/explanation!
I didn't know music production was this intense and detailed. Kudoz
Thank you for sharing!
It’s good to have you back on CZcams,and I’d love to see you make something like your old vid, when you use to sing through your piano with your friend,and do the on the Spot play.pleas don’t stop and make more video.
Perfection
I would love to see more like this, especially considering all of the One Piece stuff you've been doing. This video was incredibly informative.
So interesting! Thank you for sharing. It just gave me goosebumps.
Would love to see a video going through the story of how you ended up working on the show and other projects you've worked on over the past few years!
So glad to see you upload again! I loved the soundtrack and was so excited when I saw that you composed it!
So glad she's back
Wow. I was just schooled with a bit of music education. I am glad I understand what Sonya is saying about the different notes. And knowing the difference between sharps, minors, flat and as such. So important when composing or writing music. Thanks Sonya.
You are a hero.
Спасибо за интересное объяснение! :)
Thank you for this!! I love these kinds of videos. I've read somewhere that Joey Batey was actually very ill while recording this song. That makes me marvel at his performance even more! Can't wait to watch (and listen) to more of your breakdown videos!!!
Wow these folks are getting so successful
:O You're back!!
Thank you so much for this deep dive into a epic piece. You're an absolute legend!
Спасибо за разбор! Твоя энергия заряжает!
Интересно было послушать Джои без музыки (я вообще могу слушать его группу часами)). Надеюсь, вы снимите что-нибудь вместе ко 2 сезону (имею в виду моменты за кадром, совместные фото)).
Ещё очень хотелось бы послушать разбор Her sweet kiss. Это моя любимая песня в 1 сезоне 🙂
I'm mesmerized by music thanks to this video! Thank you sm for posting this! ❤️ Love from Russia 💞
OMG you guys are posting videos again
Siiii you're back
Très intéressant !!!
I like the detailed explanations, best regards :-)!
I like your set up.
wow..... that was fun. can you do vids of the entire soundtrack and any your other compositions, studio tour of your gear and programs? i just started getting into the DAW stuff and been having lots of fun/headaches messing around with it on my spare time.
Well, after these videos I really hope you’re being serious about seeing us later.
Ahh yes I love this breakdown!!! Can you do one of You'll Have to Fight It Until Dawn?
Hope you breakdown ragamuffin. Its such a unique piece.
Honestly, Netflix's The Witcher has the best sound track in any TV show or movie I've seen since Lord of the Rings
That's a Brazilian berimbau in the background!! Are you recording something with it? Do you play it Sonya?
Единственный повод почему Ведьмак ещё может называться славянским фэнтези это ты! :)
Если бы ещё славяне так не разосрались
You guys could release the bare vocals and hold a remix contest with the top 10 getting a spotlight. It would be awesome.
We _need_ a whistling version
Hmmm..I would love to ask Sonya what is the instrument that comes on at 1:47, or perhaps it is vocals?
Please dive into Ragamuffin!
Like that she conducts the music. lol. YOu can see she knows how to conduct and the figure for a 4/4 beat.
How can I get your piano arrangements for this soundtrack?
Puedo escuchar muy bien las notas me dicen que tengo un odio perfecto me pueden decir que significa eso tengo miedo noce que es. _.
Why are there these white flashes in this video?
Сначала вы делаете каверы, а теперь другие делают каверы на вашу музыку.
He's missing some xd flute melody. Don't make me almost
