I love the sound of a (purposefully) sloppy trombone! This is really well done, it doesn't have that "studio" sound that so many recordings of brass instruments get. It actually sounds like you're listening to the players, rather than a microphone that's crammed down their bell.

@TranscendentLion

11y↑19

One of the things I like about this theme is how it changes over the series, much like LeChuck himself. In 'Secret', LeChuck is a bit comical, and the theme matches. In 'Revenge', he becomes much more sadistic and evil, and the theme changes to fit that.

I heard a song at a car-show the other day that sounded very close to this! I had to look it up and it was Bedlam by the Bel-Airs.

I thought maybe it was an old sixties surf rock song that the creators of Monkey Island borrowed from, but no!
Bedlam came out in 2001 and sounds suspiciously like LeChuck’s theme!

It was about LeChuck with the blowing air in his tar black hair, he fills the bravest one, with a jolly good scare, and shiver in all his bones, and the one who dares to be an opponent, his heart become as rock, his body a component, in the army of the demised, take heed the captain is disguised, inside a coffin he hear someone try to knock, as a passed away and demised man, he won't even need to wear a single sock, try to become a living person again, if he want and can, a man would be dumpt by his bride-to-be, if he ceases to be, if he can't break the chain, and is just a skeletal, who become as mental as a vegetal, in the bony army of LeChuck.
