Bloody Tears (Tread Lightly remix)

Originally composed by Kenichi Matsubara, Bloody Tears remains to be one of the most memorable and popular songs to have come from the Castlevania franchise. With a series of remixes ranging from house, trance, even a metal cover under debates over its true composer, its presence amongst both music and gaming fans is strong, as are countless other game scores.

Now, with the recent pull towards the series again, I couldn't help but be inspired to do two things. One was to do a song that would get me interested in making new original tracks than to constantly rely on older ones, and second, to start off by doing a cover than to go right into something original. It only made sense to do something based on the game at hand, and for what I'm still working with, I feel it came out nicely, though it's much slower than its original and fellow covers.

Plus, seeing as that I'm slightly getting back into this, I'm not exactly getting too deep into picking more elaborate sounds. Perhaps once I feel more comfortable with the program again, we'll see.

Still unsure what genre it sits best in, mostly because of the drums. Leaning towards trip-hop...

@mazterarius Thank you =)

[KaiCalimatinus]

Its not nearly as brash as most of the others, its simple, serene, yet is still very emotive.

Very well done indeed

@KaiCalimatinus Thank you. It means a lot that so many are enjoying this take of it.

did anyone get a holloween vibe during the first few seconds?

[psylentknight]

@robloxfan459 I've been told it, before, but most have compared it to Tubular Bells, too.

It's a Castlevania lullaby...<3

[TheHolySwordFarewell]

Gives Bloody Tears a new light. Unlike any mix I've heard for this song. Well done, this version seems to fit the name very well.

[dj1ofakind2k10]

Very ominous, yet relaxing at the same time. Excellent remix!

[ShadowValentine]

Wow. Very interesting remix. Sounds like it would go perfectly with one of those moments where Simon Belmont reflects on his journeys after the ending of a game.

GREAT !

@Lunhyver Mike Oldfield... Tubular Bells, To France and most of all, Moonlight Shadow ! <3
