Castlevania Media: Overclocked Remixes. Overclocked Remixes is a website filled with fan-made arrangements from many, many video games.
I just returned from three months backpacking in Asia. It features real strings and guitar. I played it even though Im not very good at neither, it was the first time I played the violin :D. But it ended up okay. I'd say this is a pretty good way to come back after a three month backpacking trip in Asia jealous! This segues into a reserved, beautiful organ and piano segment with very dynamic ride cymbals accentuating every beat.
ReMix ends beginning with the section at 3'34", which abruptly moves into heavy rolling kick drums, double-time hi-hats, and cool chromatic detuned saw synths that end the piece with a cool reverse cymbal hit at the end. Often, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts, and I think AmIEviL's pieces personify that saying by having dozens of memorable sections, effects, instruments, harmonies, and what have you. But it's the way he chains them together into sonic works of art that's so impressive - his previous Super Metroid ReMix also illustrated his skills for combining multiple themes into a seamless, high-quality presentation, so check it out too.
Not much else to say other than it certainly comes highly recommended and is delicious dunked in milk or eaten plain :. Memblers has his own sound, for sure, and I think it's a good one.
It was done in a tracker, but the acoustic guitar sample used is quite decent. This piece has its own unique feel to it, and is quite bit "spookier" IMO than the original. Give it a download and see if you agree.
