Classic 8BIT NES music - part 5

[thecam01]

this game rocked! and the music too!

[RaDiumDrummer]

Hey ive never played this game nor heard the songs and i have to say they are really good

[luxurious297]

Castlevania 3 was the best game I've ever played!

[THEsquirrel3d]

Famicom version is superior.

[onweeed]

i dunno what it is.. i cant play an instrument or anything, but i can remember every lil note in video game music an either whistle or hum it out even after so many years. hah love nintendo

[nowweareone]

music is math. if you can grasp adding and subtracting, you can grasp the basics of music theory.

[Enclavefakesoldier]

I only remember this music of the game...

[wareagle884]

Many an hour was spent with a controller in my hand and this music in my ears.

[cubemasterchampion]

was it a website

[cubemasterchampion]

were did you get this music?

[Joelomite]

I absolutely adore the 2nd track (clocktower). It just fits so well. It reminds me of swinging across those pendulums. Great times, back in 1990...

[idi0m]

yep one of my all time favorite castlevania tunes too!

[NintendoInfection]

I thought they sounded the same?

[weofparadigm]

The Japanese version had a chip in it that could partially imitate the sounds used by the super nintendo. The music for the Japanese version is much crisper, more complex, and does not sound 8-bit at all.

[nsrrenard]

Incorrect, actually :]

The Famicom allowed for sound expansion chips (in Konami's case, they used their VRC6 and VRC7 chips) which simply allowed for more sound channels, not more sample or PCM channels. It's still entirely 8-bit and simple square waves - the VRC6 didn't allow for other sound waves. Other chips like Namco's N106 allowed different pulses and waveforms, and Konami's VRC7 allowed for very complex FM-style emulation (like in Lagrange Point)

[weofparadigm]

My bad. I am not technical.

[Zedacabra]

i think on a Chord progressive level this is one of the best songs ever made int he history of man kind.. no lie

[minnamner]

I love the first song. Reminds me of the good days.

[mikemadden89sonic]

i know distr0ia!!! lol i love the castlevania songs for some reason, they remind me of a hybrid of beethoven and khachaturian

mike

[goddammf]

the hottest song is this game was the song from the frankenstiens tower and atlantis was also a great track, you should really consider adding them and not just the first 5 melodies

[luxurious297]

@goddammf

I agree. Also he should have added the other musics called: OVERTURE, DEMON SEED, OVERTURE, ETC.

[distr0ia]

how do they come up with one solid melody after another?!

[Mike9456]

there was this one castlevania theme that sounded so fucking awesome.. i forget what it was

[TheTimeDevourer]

shame on you, every Castlevania OST is awesome :P

[Ruudos]

I recommend to you the music from:

Faxanadu

Solstice

Incredible Crash Dummies

[Zedacabra]

if you listen to pretty much all the tracks they have three sections the bass and two coinciding melodys or riffs which go in different places and a some hilariouse electro percussion and yet i could just sit hir and listen to this all night long which is exactly what im gonna do

[Zedacabra]

why is it that all the music from these classic games is soo much fucking better than any thing made today some of these composers really suck balls

listen to this 8 BIT Peice of music which HITS MY SOUL IN SO MANYS WAYS

[afreakout]

I hear that!

[genocyde83]

Amen brother. It seems like they put a helluva lot more effort back then. Although I like hearing some of the music now just done in 8-bit. Like Castlevania SoTN. Sounds great in 8-bit.
