Heart of Fire - Don't Wait Until Night - Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow

What a kickass tune, an awesome combination of the Haunted Castle tune, and the Castlevania 1 (NES) stage tune. And even more awesome because of the epic battle that happpens while the music is playing and the guitars are jamming.

Reminder that this guy is 55 when you fight him and even then, he's holding back, and it's STILL a challenging fight!

[@kirimusse]

Forget about Simon and Richter; when the next Smash game comes out, I want him to represent Castlevania.

[@2006arpg]

And on top of that the Vampire Killer was extremely weakened to a state hardly similar to it’s original power

And to think he was holding back...on purpose

[@johnnyace2287]

You kinda want Julius to show all his best moves!!

[@bruvathroatpuncher500]

Julius needs his own game. I mean this guy was able to take on Dracula alone, and at this time Dracula was not only at full power he was boosted by the chaos and conflict of the world too, Julius came out triumphant despite that.

[@epicgamer6678]

@@bruvathroatpuncher500 Yeah, unlike John and... Jonathan, he managed to take on war-boosted drac alone. He's just that cool.

[@JOEmega64]

@@bruvathroatpuncher500 he wasn't really alone, though. In fact, he was arguably the LEAST alone, lol. He was directly backed and supported by a global military coalition and the forces of the Church.

This and the clock tower themes are my two favorite songs off of the OST. And that fight. THAT FIGHT. I always anticipate that fight in replays, like "how badly is the old man gonna bloody me THIS time?"

[@JorgeFuentes-TGMagus]

And big J is taking it easy on you because he knows you're not really evil.

[@alucardstalker]

Doesn't mean the fight isn't difficult. If it's that tough and he's just going easy on you... I hate to be Dracula on the other end of that whip in 1999, when the mighty hunter was in his prime.

Heart of Fire was my favorite track in CV1, so when I heard that part show up out of nowhere in the fight with Julius, this song instantly became one of my favorite tracks in the series.

[@kyletheneko2745]

You forgot Haunted Castle

[@anubiscerberus4348]

Almost for me, Julius Belmont is a harder boss than Chaos. But thats how it should be, after all, Julius is the strongest Belmont Besides Just and Richter.

[@chavaspada]

He is the strongest, he actually killed Dracula for good in 1999

[@anubiscerberus4348]

Oh i know that, i was just sayin that, almost for me, the gameplay vs Julius is harder than Vs Chaos.

[@chavaspada]

Jack Noir Ah, yeah haha, indeed.

[@Alouette_EXE]

Jack Noir Maybe its because you can challenge Chaos again and again then you get use it and find Chaos easier than Julius. Its a tie for me

[@anubiscerberus4348]

I guess you are right. But in-rol, Julius is the one who finally destroys Dracula, so, he then is suposed to be stronger than chaos. I guess?.

[@hexagon-nebulous2010]

It's 2017, I replayed CastleVania Aria of Sorrow. Same type of enjoyment when I used to play it long time ago. This game is the boss.

[@mysticalacer94]

I don't know if there were more memorable battles in the history of GBA games such as Soma vs Julius. But i admit it i enjoyed this rather than fighting Graham. The part from 2:03 sounds a bit like Bloody Tears.

[@KhristianBolano]

It sounds like Bloody Tears because it's a common passage in baroque music, which is the inspiration for Castlevania music. You can find it in Heart of Fire, Bloody Tears, Aquarius (kinda), and other songs also

[@JD4we]

When I first played with Julius I thought: great Castlevania on steroids, cause fck he's so damn powerful.

Absolutely fantastic render, my good sir. I love this one to death. However, there IS one little gripe I have with it. The bit starting from 2:03. The GBA version had some pipe organs thrown in there, and I've been scouring the internet to find a proper MP3 rendition of that. Sadly, I did not find that here. But besides that lil' nit pick, awesome. Truly awesome.

Pro Tip: Use the gun in the fight, it makes Julius a complete joke.

[@JorgeFuentes-TGMagus]

@megatokiorio I take it you have an older version of the tune in your system? I made an MP3 a long time ago with a different set of instruments and I was far more limited in my compression choices with the converter I had used at the time. However, I'm quite fond of that version as well as this one. Do you like that this version is more 'digital'?

[@easygamewalkthrough2794]

This music is Really a toughest one as its a medley combination of old themes Can't wait until night and Heart of Fire. I tried it several times in my Keyboard and was unable to play even now. Trying this theme from 1 year. Any one day I will learn to play it.

I just found your channel yesterday and I really love most of your stuff.
