1- One of the few catchy songs in the game and might be the games defining piece. I composed it and sequenced it in one sitting (well, ok, I got up to use the bathroom unlike some MMORPGers). This boss theme is longer than in the original Castlevania because I intended to make the boss fights longer and more intense.

2- A song that I feel fits in well for an opening number. Definitely was thinking haunted house when I composed it. The base is probably the most dynamic in this one.

3- The first song I composed for this game, I didn't think it wouldn't be topped. A fairly complex song, the main goal here was to get two melodies harmonizing well together. I'm hoping it will enchant the listener rather than create confusion.

4- The most dramatic tune in the game, not something that would be easy to hum. Loaded with tons of arpeggios and features several unique chord progressions (If I remember correctly, it opens up "e, F#, C, B, F, A#, E, B"). This one could turn out to be the favorite.

5- An 8bit rendition of Dance of Pales, and a very glorious one. This one really tested my skills as a sequencer, particularly the timing of the 32nd notes. Lots of different timbres used. This was for the Castlevania fans of course. Will likely be the most popular song in the game.

6- One of the more unusual songs. While it does have 16 measures, they do not go 4 4 4 4 in chords, but 3 3 5 5. Special thing about this one is the timbre created by echoing of the square channels.

7- This song sounded better on piano, particularly the opening, but I'm not disappointed with the way it turned out. A song that makes one feel deceivingly at peace.

8- The last song I sequenced. I wanted this to sound very intense. The base is a little sloppy, but the hectic melody from the less dominant square channel kind of drowns it out.

9- Probably the song I like the least, but it does plays well on the theme of mystery. Starts out nice in and ends nice, but the middle kind of drags and doesn't really seem to blend well (one transition in particular).

10- The ending piece turned out very well and it is one of my favorite pieces in the game. I think it has excellent transition, and is a successful example of a contrapuntal tune.

11- Not much to say here. I expect complaints about its repetition, and I'm think of expanding this one actually.

12- Probably not the most appropriate choice for this game's title screen, but I like it.


13- Eh, it's ok, but... It was meant to be slower. The base and melody not being together might make people cringe.

14- The traditional death jingle used in Castlevania.

15- Short and dramatic. Inspired by a song that I never finished for the games soundtrack. I added this phrase at the end of it in a fit of hopelessness and I was like "I guess it's game over for this piece".

C-3P0 would ask if he could favour master with a gentle kiss.

He has no lips. He'd have to put a duckbill on his mouth to actually have one.

Or he could inhail air and be like a vacuum.
