Castlevania Orchestral Rock Medley - Vampire Killer/Bloody Tears/Etc. || String Player Gamer

[@bluethunder7391]

That transition from Vampire Killer to Beginning was KILLER!!

[@moonlightaffairs]

I actually finished watching without skipping.

[@deltago1415]

Almost 6 years down the road, and I’m just now discovering this. Holy cow, this is AMAZING! As a Castlevania fan, this hit all the right notes. Thank you for this!

[@LionmightOfficial]

Thanks for the great reception Stringees! This medley now out in the following shops: ITUNES: goo.gl/0csOrR LOUDR: goo.gl/V9FJVh BANDCAMP (Seamless File): goo.gl/93XvDK

[@jud6ment]

+String Player Gamer Excellent job, I really do think you got the best videogame music. If you ever do a pokemon melody you will be my hero

[@ryohazuki3071]

another great masterful performance. 👍👍👍 up tho ii wish some of the songs were not cut 😔 still thumbs up 😊

[@DankLordDemaar]

+String Player Gamer 3:27 What is that weird sound there? Sounds like when you get a steam chat message. Or is that supposed to be there?

[@VicJang]

+String Player Gamer Hey there, I just noticed that the Facebook, Patreon, and IG link in the description were cut off and don't lead to your pages. You might wanna fix that! Awesome work as always.

[@soul77125]

oh my, oh my, oh my, love it, love it, love it

[@danielhu2237]

Bloody tears was simply amazing

[@kaitoudark1]

Play, musician; and grace this world! Your music ever belongs here! It was by your hand that these covers were given sound. You were called here by inspiration and to pay tribute! These songs are as full as your soul, and mankind needs a musician such as you! (What a fantastic night to have an arranged medley!)

[@やわらかにゃんこ-k1y]

悪魔城ドラキュラの荘厳で哀愁に満ちた世界観を流れる様にメロディアスなアレンジで見事に表現した素晴らしい作品です。

[@seovania9601]

That moment when you think the video is soon ended because of the many songs that were covered but there is still 10min of hypepicness left.

[@eneomaos]

I'm crying right now! I'm 40 years old. I watched all my childhood in this medley. I preserve this games and they're consoles.

[@TheDarkLidan]

I've listened to so many covers of Castlevania, but this is the best so far!!! AWESOME!!!!

[@jovanlopez1660]

Nope Ferdk! Go and listen to his Castlevania soundtrack...he FUCKING ROCKS BRO🤘WAY BETTER... SOMEONE SHOULD GIVE FERDK A CONTRACT...go check it out

[@blackrosario40]

@@jovanlopez1660 me i like Ferdk but for me this is my favorite the reason is he put alot of feelings and efforts and he also put some orchestral instruments and its very fit to castlevania unlike to metal try to listen it again the part of dance of pales its very relaxing but yet powerful in a nice way. that's my opinion so i can't blame the other people for liking this arrangement cover. hope you understand my friend :)

[@blackrosario40]

@Rodrigo Ledur I agree with you

[@Rycamcam]

This is the sort of dude who breaks down every secret wall for those delicious Castle wall hams.

[@Loonaticx]

DRACULA:What is a String Player Gamer!? Well, he's actually quite fantastic. I recommend you experience his prowess. I think you'd quite fancy it Richter. RICHTER:...... Uh, die..... monster? DRACULA: Oh come now, you can spare 18 minutes before this endless dance you Belmont's and I have every hundred years or so can you not? RICHTER: Know what? Yes. Yes I can. Whereabouts? DRACULA: Dude, check it out, I have an UPSIDE DOWN CASTLE!!!! RICHTER: °0°

[@JoseRicardo-js3pp]

RICHTER:well I forgive you

[@juanjm12]

the parts from 10:10 are 10/10 You can really feel the energy and the dedication in those segments.

[@LionmightOfficial]

+Juanzor Thank you! Everything is let loose from that part onwards!

[@jenissailauov2997]

I fell powers in 4:48 :D

[@AmbassadorArt2]

Diwa this is a masterpiece, how are you not world famous yet??? 16 minutes for us, a year for you, it just blows my mind how amazing this is and how amazing YOU are. Dare I say it you're one of my favorite musical composers in the world? Otuside, blew me away!

[@LionmightOfficial]

I really have no answer to your question haha! But still thanks for listening! :)

[@demoniac4821]

After 5 years its still one of the best castlevania medleys out there.

[@ΣπυροσΓεραρδησ-σ7β]

IT IS THE BEST MEDLEY CASTLEVANIA MUSIC THAT I HAVE EVER HEARD !! GREAT ORCHESTRATION !! AMAZING ! WE CAN'T STOP LISTENING ! KEEP WALKING !!!!

[@ren.batista]

This video deserves more views, the music is superb, flawless. The classic Castlevania songs in the best form I've ever heard.

[@oliro]

You must be in possession of the legendary Vampire Killer Violin to be writing such slaying remakes. Well played, String Player Gamer!

[@murderspegurder5241]

I never played the original Castlevania so I didn’t get a chance to fall in love with its music until I heard your renditions! Thank you for bringing this soundtrack to life!

[@Heartsong]

That was incredible! I admit that I've never played any of the Castlevania games, so I don't know any of the songs featured, but that doesn't stop me from enjoying them. You have a way of giving your music that nostalgic feel even for songs or games I've never experienced. Thanks for all your hard work in sharing your wonderful arrangements.

[@LionmightOfficial]

+DoctorSympony Thanks a lot doc! :D

[@syphabelnades8445]

A little late, but II second this - I've played most of the games over the years, I loved Castlevania since I was 8 (I'm 30 now, so the franchise is a little older than I am), but didn't have all the consoles over the years, but I feel nostalgic for every single song, even the ones from the few games I missed. You did an amazing job! Thank you so much! Let's hope for another Castlevania collection (though I'd sa6y we need around 4-5 more to cover all the games.... that would be so amazing!)

[@DlCKWALLACE]

Are you human? Fantastic, so much nostalgia. Amazing work!

[@WarpRonin781]

Dick Wallace no, he is a machine!

[@davidprodigy5833]

The more I listen to it, it gets better and better. My favorite 2 Castlevania songs in 1.

[@AgentLevitar]

I never thought I'd find another Poison Mind as badass as the one in CastleVania Dracula X Chronicles but damn dude, this came incredibly close.

[@AkaiAzul]

Man, your rendition of Heart of Fire is the best I've heard! Simply amazing!

[@LionmightOfficial]

+AkaiAzul Thanks! That's my all-time favorite 'Vania song so that's probably why.

[@AkaiAzul]

***** :o You're also one of the few better known KZbin people who's directly replied to my comments! *swoon*

[@patcahill3724]

All the songs in your castlevania medley are amazing. Favorites: Bloody Tears, Beginning, Vampire Killer, and more!

[@WolfzenSkiigh]

From someone who has spent a good active 6 or so years browsing through Castlevania remixes / tributes, I can say this is one of the very best Medleys I've ever listened to. Tremendously brilliant, this is an astutely put together piece.

[@Herty1tgi]

How can 35 people NOT like this?

[@Manneville2006]

They're deaf?

[@JavierMercedes]

man all of this is amazing.

[@kylele23]

This is one of the best things to ever happen, and one of the most beautiful arrangements I've ever heard. Now here comes the obligatory "Y u no play Don't Wait Until Night" or "Castle Corridor."

[@michelleheafy]

YAY Diwaaa - you did it! Huge accomplishment! It sounds/looks so great! Nice Cartman hat in the outro, too. ;D

[@LionmightOfficial]

Yesssss Chelle! Thank you so much! Gave you a little shoutout too. ;) And I totally love my Cartman cap. Cartslevania? LOL! I'm so excited for out next joint project *wink wink*

[@shaunw2154]

My body was not ready for a melody of this magnitude. My body is defeated.

[@LionmightOfficial]

+Shaun W

[@BotWhisperer]

You literally hit EVERY song I loved from the original series of games but have never heard a updated version of, as well as the music from those games that came after. Masterfully done and I'd Love to hear your renditions of Mega Man 1-3

[@robgeorge4581]

This medley was done with a neoclassical metal feel to it. Which is the perfect approach to castelvania music.

[@VuNguyen-jv8lu]

16 minute awesome Castlevania medley = good ending in Simon's Quest I loved the selection/arrangements/performance! And that transition from Wood Carving Partita to Heart of Fire...

[@Inunah]

Hearing Symphony of the Night music makes me want to play it. So bad.

[@LionmightOfficial]

+TheInunah Me too!

[@Inunah]

It's just too bad there aren't more games with the same atmosphere and musical awesomeness as SotN.

[@sethbridge2080]

Richter: Die monster! You don't belong in this world! Dracula: It was not by my hand that I return...

[@LionmightOfficial]

Dracula: I was called here by humans who wish to pay me tribute.

[@TheRotnflesh]

+String Player Gamer Richter: Tribute? You steal men's souls, and make them your slaves. Dracula: Perhaps the same could be said of all religions. Richter: Your words are as empty as your soul. Mankind ill needs a savior such as you. Dracula: What is a man?! A miserable little pile of secrets! But enough talk; have at you!

[@ChemoHerrera]

This is probably the most amazing Castlevania medley!

[@miriam6822]

A magnificient way of waiting for your 100 000 subs, you evil genius. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

[@saiaijin1651]

- Blushes. - UGGHHH my favorite one of all time is Lost painting.. I just love that music I listen to it every night :O. I also love to stare at Ayami's artwork while I listen to the soundtracks.

[@lucri988]

I Like that little moment the guitar player and keyboard player share at 08:54

[@BoltFraction]

This is some incredible talent. It's criminal that this doesn't have more views!

[@StrangeStorylines]

At 3:09 I half-expected an actual stop for the damn "What a horrible night to have a curse" text box, lol. Awesome arrangement btw!

[@ashiehakoto1490]

this is exactly what I imagine the OST would sound like if it was...a live orchestra playing the theme songs just fits so well.

[@RoPanuganti]

Happy Halloween indeed, an awesome horror rocker indeed!

[@LionmightOfficial]

+SwigglesRP Thanks Ro! Happy Halloween!

[@jenissailauov2997]

You need 1 million subscribies! Your remix is amazing!

[@MrMarket1987]

Time after time, I am impressed by each new arrangement, but it's no contest that this video is among my favorites so far. Thank you for sharing such a splendid performance.

[@LionmightOfficial]

+MrMarket1987 And thank you so much for staying on with my channel!

[@danmanx2]

Great job! Simon Belmont would be proud!

[@LionmightOfficial]

+danmanx2 Thank you! Simon Belmont rocks!

[@void2258]

This is great! Also the gameplay in the background has reminded how riddled with invisible semi-random stuff the original Castlevania was.

[@LionmightOfficial]

+Elliot Jenner Ahh yes the good old Konami days! Hahaha! Thanks man!

[@Lusana32]

the transition from wood carving partita to heart of fire is so well done

[@Duhernt]

I still keep coming back to listen to this. Love it.

[@BRGKasumi77Main]

This medley deserve a second part. There's more Castlevania games including Castlevania Lords of Shadow!

[@BaroqueBros]

As an avid retro gamer, I always love listening to your covers of all the greats. Keep rocking, brother.

[@Josh_Fredman]

I'm so happy you included "Lost Painting"! I'm sure I'm not the only one who requested it, but I was definitely one voice in that chorus. Outstanding work overall! I'm sorry I'm two months late to the party. It's been a really busy autumn. Thank you for your wonderful work!

[@sydgooding148]

It's here guys! The wait is over!

[@Console-gamer]

This gives me goosebumps. Excellent work, Diwa. 👍

[@forevercomescrashing]

This is the most perfect arrangement I've ever heard in a Castlevania medley. Brilliantly preformed. Amazing. Wonderful. Awesome. Great. Cheers!

[@lindaboralis4794]

A long hike down nostalgia lane. Thank you for making this wonderful collection of cherished and distinct music from one of my favorite series during it's glory days of 2D.

[@TheKornstalker]

I just realized. Castlevania was NES (or retro in general) Dark Souls. Same sort of themes (sort of a Gothic, Medieval horror setting) , dope ass music, both hard as balls, and Dark Souls is basically 3D Metroidvania. That said this medley is probably my favorite medley ever. I actually listen to this shit all the time and it's fucking great. You're a fucking legend my dood.

[@Tarso333]

dude, best castlevania medley on the WHOLE INTERNET

[@santa_poring]

He is Dracula Castle's Maestro

[@mastersantacruz]

14:19 The Requiem is so fantastic. Amazing job 👏👏👏👏👏

[@NathanThomson]

Got the chills when symphony of the night came on. So good!

[@Williamdrift1]

Escrever em português mesmo, assisto esse video toda vez que vou tomar uma cerveja, nostalgia do melhor game de nes e snes que existiu, nossa época foi fodástica! Eu quando vejo esse vídeo, tiro o like, mas só pra apertar de novo

[@samuraian5905]

Absolutely epic. From the arrival at the gates of Castlevania to the Requiem, I was transfixed.

[@zamasterhando3399]

If it was just one song it would have been phenomenal, but with all these amazing songs crammed into one video, one like really doesn't seem like anywhere near enough.

[@DuoMaxwell007]

Now that was damn good, it actually made me dust off my NES and play Castlevania while listening to it on repeat

[@inaliann]

I must say, those violin players are really synchronised with each other

[@numberpi5473]

I was beginning to think this would NEVER come out. But it did. And it's beautiful

[@LionmightOfficial]

+Yashum Pi YES! And thank you so much for your patience!

[@CAMPANELLO]

These are some of the best covers of these songs I've ever heard. Probably 100 of the views are just from me listening over and over. Thanks so much for gifting the world with these arrangements!

[@penandtag]

Aww yeah, Vampire Killer, Bloody tears,Simon's theme and Heart of fire made it in! Amazing as always :)

[@LionmightOfficial]

+penandtag2 Good choices! Thank you!

[@HeeminGamin]

All the old songs were amazingly epic and the newer stuff was beautiful great choice of instruments... I wish I could apprcate the pieces more but I've never played a castlevania game.

[@LionmightOfficial]

+HeeminGamin Thanks a lot dude!

[@Dewderonomy]

That transition to Heart of Fire from Wood Carving Partita has ruined the Long Library for me, in a good way. I can't play it without expecting HoF to come in out of nowhere and blow my mind.

[@estelian5959]

Honestly, with transitions this smooth between the songs, I think it would be hard to tell it's actualy a medley if it wasn't stated in the title of the video

[@DarkCode]

Lol Doppelganger Orchestra. In true Castlevania fashion 😊

[@JanjoZone]

this deserves more views

[@AndrewTheTransformer]

Veryyyy nice!! I usually listen to each and every one of those soundtracks but having it all as one is just mind blowing O_O

[@LionmightOfficial]

+Sac huhuhu Thank you!

[@TeraCMusic]

IT HAS FINALLY BEEN RELEASED!!! This is just magnificent :D Totally worth the time you spent slaving over it~ 💜

[@LionmightOfficial]

It's over, it's finally over! Haha! Thank you very much Terarara

[@staple72]

Castlevania music is my favorite video game music of all time. This, by far the best medley in the interwebs. Thank you Diwa for this! Happy Halloween!

[@LionmightOfficial]

+staple72 Thank you for the kind words! :D

[@michaelcole8196]

This was absolutely incredible! I don't know how I haven't seen this before. I absolutely loved it, and what a great tribute. AMAZING job.

[@faaeen]

Amazing version of Wicked Child :)

[@alexmotts]

faaeen it was always my favorite

[@KenshinHimura10]

From two fans who have grew up from the Castlevania series, you have nailed the epic theme/music embodied within the series please keep up the good work. You are amazing and we look forward to all future projects that you may embark upon.

[@Robstar0]

So epic! Needs 100 times more views!

I'm not even a big Castlevania fan, but this is probably the best thing I've heard in my entire life! I have no words to describe how amazing this medley is! Eargasms all the way through! :D

[@LionmightOfficial]

+Ulf Turgeon That's amazing dude! Thank you very much!

[@verinenpihvi]

those not liking and favoriting this video should receive a whipping.

[@LionmightOfficial]

+Verinen Pihvi >:D Evvvul!

[@misterwariobro]

I agree, either that or they need one of the Belmonts or even Alucard dropping holy water on them!

[@Sal.Manila]

I was more than halfway through this video, pondering to myself, “How do these guys all have such similar hair? They almost look like they could be brothers-kinda like the Japanese Ramones of Nintendoland!” When I read the entire description, I felt like an ass. It’s the SAME PERSON! You “prossess” excellent musicianship!

[@nyonelove7617]

This guy's effort is second to none.

[@maxmigue]

this is, by far, the best Castlevania music I've found! Congratulations, it's awesome!

[@stevenvandj8503]

Symphony Of The Night, gives me nostalgic, did a pretty epic version of these soundtracks

[@GammaRay-yy4ns]

This masterpiece was made by only one person!!!! Holy moly jesus christ

[@kewano5091]

the castlevania games have some of the best soundtrack out there!

[@rainmaker907e5]

So far this is the best cover/medley for Castlevania songs imo. I listen to it almost everyday. A shame i didn't found it earlier. Greetings from Brazil.

[@LionmightOfficial]

Wow, thank you!

[@fabriziovm]

I haven't finished to watch and hear this and I'm already writing. This is so magnificent, so full of talent and feeling. I love it. I want to find a bottle with this talent and drink it! Congratulations!

[@hdblacksabbath4271]

This is incredible. So many classics. I love Dwelling of Doom and A Requiem.

[@MetallixKnight]

My expectations were soaring for this one, and you still blew me away like always. You've done justice to both my favorite holiday and one of my favorite game franchises. This is the first time where I can't even pick out a favorite; They all sounded simply awesome. Also, extra respect for the Cartman hat. This latest season has had me dying of laughter every episode.

[@LionmightOfficial]
