Topic: I can't believe it's not Castlevania music

[Jorge D. Fuentes]

This topic is timeless for another good reasons:  New games/bands/groups may come out with music that has that same Castlevania flavor.

This goes without saying. Guess who composed it? It's veeeery obvious:

OZ/The Sword of Etheria Original Soundtrack - Overcoming Sadness ~Beginning the Journey~

I have the game and i really like the music.

While some developers used special chips in their NES/Famicom games (Sunsoft and Konami in particular) I doubt that the songs from Bloodrayne Betrayal could be recreated through real NES hardware. They're much too complex. I've heard that even the songs from Mega Man 9 and 10 would sound slightly different/simplified had they been on a real NES.

I believe it can be done, though you'd need a co processor chip in the cartridge. A good example is the Double Dragon II NES game. It had a chip inside that essentially made the game a 16bit. That should be be enough power to process those chiptunes.

Also of special note, while making that particular Bloodrayne soundtrack, they were in fact using Sotn music as a stand in. Our buddy, Jake Kaufman himself is a Castlevania fan who was a tester for the game. Jake convinced the staff to give him a shot at making a soundtrack Castlevania style, and pulled it off pretty damn well.

thats pretty neat. It WAS fairly obvious they wanted more to do a Castlevania than a Bloodrayne game.

You know, these two tracks have led me to believe that OZ served as Yamane's transition between LoI and CoD:
OZ/The Sword of Etheria Original Soundtrack - Magnificent Battle
OZ Sword of Etheria-Versus OZ

[Dark Nemesis]

Not exactly from a game, but i find it so awesome and creepy. Also it reminds me Bram Stoker's Dracula game from super nes and genesis.

...Yeah, by now you'd notice I'd take any excuse to bump this thread.
Also, is it just me or am I hearing familiar notes?

[Omegasigma]

This song would fit into Lords of Shadow as a great boss tune in my opionion:

06 "Sorrow" Resident Evil Darkside Symphony

[Johnny Alucard]

Here's something no doubt few are familiar with: It's a shmup for the DSiWare library that thematically is Aria of Sorrow meets Gradius. You can hear the Castlevania influence in the first stage music here:

G.Gシリーズ DARK SPIRITS （ジージーシリーズ ダークスピリッツ）

Also, is it just me or am I hearing familiar notes?

Not sure if serious...
