Rune-powered musician summons up 15 covers of Elden Ring's theme song
Alex Moukala covered the video game's theme in a whole bunch of different styles
In the few months that From Software’s Elden Ring has been out, the internet has enjoyed taking its creators’ carefully considered artistic vision and just kind of wreaking havoc on it. Aside from finding strategies to defeat particularly difficult enemies by doing stuff like messing with their programming so they act like dopes—a time-honored From game tradition—modders have also been hard at work making it possible to, say, enter bloody combat with a horse-riding Shrek as a battle-hardened Homer Simpson.
As impressive as all of these efforts may be, though, none are quite as transformative as the approach musician Alex Moukala has taken to twisting Elden Ring into a new shape: Reworking the game’s theme song through 15 different musical genres in a single video.
