Soundtrack (Hollow Knight)

The original soundtrack for Hollow Knight was composed and performed by Christopher Larkin, and a few other artists. It is divided into two albums, one for the original game and another compiling the new tracks composed for the four content packs. The tracks in the albums are often composed of several musical suites for gameplay situations. A few others, mainly remixes, were omitted as well.

Trivia
 * More classic tracks of Hollow Knight were recorded alongside the "Pale Court" live recording session. They were set to be released for free on Christopher Larkin's Bandcamp following the release of Gods & Nightmares.
 * The theme of the Dreamers was omitted from the first album and added instead on the second despite being a part of the original release.
 * Christopher Larkin also released for free both new tracks of Hidden Dreams on August 3, 2017. This short album was meant as a sneak peek for Gods and Nightmares.
 * The two battle themes of Brothers Oro & Mato are swapped during the Pantheon of Hallownest, unlike any other bosses in Godmaster.
 * Different promotional cover art of the soundtrack was shown when the digital version of the soundtrack was announced in a Kickstarter post. This early art was not used for the final release.
