That is both amazing and frightful. I like the creativity that we can find these days.

Thank you, that was absolutely worth it. :-) I just heard their medieval version of "somebody that I used to know" -- https://youtube.com/watch?v=Ch1aVmjvYTI https://youtube.com/watch?v=Ch1aVmjvYTI The lyrical changes were wonderful.

Although related to bardcore, I see this product as more about creating dungeon synth and its offshoots: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dungeon_synth https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dungeon_synth which has seen a little more popularity recently, judging by the number of views this got: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FP9_XmmmIk0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FP9_XmmmIk0

An interesting video came up on my YouTube recommendations last month that compares bardcore (and neo-medieval) to actual medieval music [1]. Western music underwent a huge change after medieval times moving from a modal system to a tonal system. Bardcore is tonal music trying to evoke a medieval vibe, and it often succeeds quite well...but it is still far different from what actual medieval music would have sounded like. If you like bardcore but are curious what historically accurate medieval music would have been like, you might enjoy the video.
