Dark Sanctuary theme in Chapter 4

Wiki Discussion

Dunno if anyone's mentioned it yet but the music of Deltarune Chapter 4 has a lot of Gaster references. I feel like it ought to have its own section at this point? Cause currently the page only lists ANOTHER HIM as containing Gaster.

Certainly at least the variation seen in Dark Sanctuary, From Now On, Ever Higher, Crumbling Tower, GUARDIAN and Neverending Night which is a distinctive variation itself. Also the one from The Second Sanctuary and The Third Sanctuary is a minor motif. But like I said they are both clearly based on Gaster.

(On a related note, the theme from And Now For Today's Sponsors in Chapter 3 appears in like half of the tracks for that chapter and warrants a section to itself as well.)

idk if that's plausible. so much of anything related to gaster is still speculation & headcanon, especially when it comes to leitmotifs. it'd be really easy for it to get out of hand because of how simple the "ANOTHER HIM"/Gaster's Theme composition is. i can only see this list being expanded if we get more concrete appearances/evidence of gaster as a character alongside a consistent musical theme.

What you’re hearing in those songs is its own motif and should be treated as such. This doesn’t really have anything to do with Gaster.
