Top Floor - Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow

[@squiredoodad]

The feeling when you expect a dramatic, elegant march to the final room, and then suddenly everything is on fire for some reason.

[@altreon3608]

fitting for a game that takes place in the future, tbh

[@lunarstarthedarknessdemon2999]

And talking about "on fire"; reminds me those main rooms in Top Floor. There is one where you have the enemies and in the background there are these armors but there is no fire; but on the next room you can find the same but now the armors have demon faces and there is fire in the background.

[@meathir4921]

Castle Corridors, Heart of Fire and Clocktower are ones everyone loves, but this is always up there for me.

[@zturtle1630]

I really hope that pun was intentional

[@zturtle1630]

@@blasterjretrogameresp8034 That's not what I meant at all. I was merely wondering whether or not he meant for that pun to be, ya know, a pun. This song is a banger, no doubt about that, and so are the other songs he mentioned

[@zturtle1630]

@@blasterjretrogameresp8034 The song is called "Top Floor". They said this song was always "up there" for them. Get it? Top Floor? Up there?

[@soldaluz3116]

Wait, didn't other guy say in Clocktower's comment section that Clocktower was underrated? I'm confused

[@Squideey]

Is this Dracula's dance floor or something?

[@greenzero2169]

Squideey close, is the music before the fight against Dracula's reincarnation.

[@somacruz7759]

Excuse you! I am Dracula's reincarnation not Graham >__>

[@CrimsonHybrid]

Technically, it's _your_ dance floor. lol

Nah, that’s what the Dance Hall is for.

Now I'm picturing Soma moonwalking, grabbing his crotch, and the monster in front of him bursts.

[@fyighfreak]

The best remake I have seen yet.

[@retrowild6778]

Soma has to face the unfortunate (or perhaps rather fortunate) fact that in a past life, he got funky.

[@spotsthecat7913]

Dracula must have some killer dance moves..lol SPOILER wait..but you control Dracula (albeit reincarnated) in this game, eh?

[@awesomeariados6501]

Achan Dukdik Yeah and if you press the down button to crouch a bunch of times quickly it looks like Soma's shredding on an air guitar

[@somacruz7759]

I guess I kind of do xD

[@zturtle1630]

dont spoil the game for people who just wanna listen to remixes

[@ashencometmom5291]

yeah watch me press left, right, left, right, etc to the beat like a true dancer extraordinaire

[@squiredoodad]

How do you think Mina fell for him? Eh eh eh?

[@JorgeFuentes-TGMagus]

@Spadehyena Hi, thanks for the comment. Yeah that's kind of my thing. I don't really 'remix' as much as just upgrade original arrangements, and try to do the least meddling with the original composition. Sort of what a 'bonus disc' for a game OST would contain. Glad you like it. :)

[@Nakurye]

I can't believe you did this one! You're a bard god

[@IronyExtremist]

+Na Kurai Shovel Knight Bard approved

[@fayflowright]

I really love this arrangement. It's extremely true to the original and improves the crappy GBA soundtrack quality immensely. One of my favorite songs in the game, by the way.

[@squalllionheart5538]

Its okay to say this song is a masterpiece

Here’s a little reference: This Top Floor theme is actually Lament of Innocence’s “Holy Cross Obsessed By The Moon”! I believe Lament of Innocence was before Akatsuki No Minuet?

[@iiVoltageWolf]

@@SomeDemoMain Awesome. Thanks for pointing that out. I felt I got the year right, they’re just a few months apart.

[@JorgeFuentes-TGMagus]

@oniaidama Thanks! Yeah you just described the reason I do these arrangements. Even on an official disc, you don't always get upgraded instrument. Often, it's the original hardware playing the tune (especially with some of the gameboy/gba tunes). Glad you like it. Enjoy the others, too.

[@garethmanEXE]

The last area should have been just an elevator, no enemies, just an elevator. This sounds like it would play in Dracula's elevator.

yes here is everyone played this game 10 years ago

[@Clesarie]

Exactly. Its just fuzzy. I listen to your mix over the original because if it's clearer quality.

[@oniaidama]

Nice work here dude! No more of that shitty quality I can finally listen to this song "normally" Thanks.

[@grahamjones8352]

Only this area give to you a bit of challenge

[@zombieplasticclock]

If you take requests, can you rearrange the battle theme against Graham? I think it's called "Battle For the Throne"

[@israelreveles956]

exactly what was needed to destroy the all might 8

[@teafollet5361]

How do you get that sound 0:40 (arpeggio in the background) ? I have no idea how to reproduce such a sound. Does this synth instrument have a particular name?

[@allanduarte3078]

man you are a good realy good now i am downloading i am a you fan i love castlevania and songs

[@JorgeFuentes-TGMagus]

@zombieplasticclock Already done, dude. Check the "Aria of Sorrow" playlist and you will find a track called "Throne Fights".

[@Clesarie]

@Plingio I like the more crisp 8bit sound it has. The GBA technically doesnt even have a sound chip. The cpu was powerful enough that all the sound is done in software. Hence why it sounds cruddy.

[@Simiann]

wow !!!

Sounds better than the GBA version, because gba has the worst sound ever. However the little clap you use in the background is of a shitastic sample rate.
