Almost 6 years down the road, and I’m just now discovering this. Holy cow, this is AMAZING! As a Castlevania fan, this hit all the right notes. Thank you for this!
DRACULA:What is a String Player Gamer!? Well, he's actually quite fantastic. I recommend you experience his prowess. I think you'd quite fancy it Richter. RICHTER:...... Uh, die..... monster? DRACULA: Oh come now, you can spare 18 minutes before this endless dance you Belmont's and I have every hundred years or so can you not? RICHTER: Know what? Yes. Yes I can. Whereabouts? DRACULA: Dude, check it out, I have an UPSIDE DOWN CASTLE!!!! RICHTER: °0°
Play, musician; and grace this world! Your music ever belongs here! It was by your hand that these covers were given sound. You were called here by inspiration and to pay tribute! These songs are as full as your soul, and mankind needs a musician such as you! (What a fantastic night to have an arranged medley!)
@@jovanlopez1660 me i like Ferdk but for me this is my favorite the reason is he put alot of feelings and efforts and he also put some orchestral instruments and its very fit to castlevania unlike to metal try to listen it again the part of dance of pales its very relaxing but yet powerful in a nice way. that's my opinion so i can't blame the other people for liking this arrangement cover. hope you understand my friend :)
Diwa this is a masterpiece, how are you not world famous yet??? 16 minutes for us, a year for you, it just blows my mind how amazing this is and how amazing YOU are. Dare I say it you're one of my favorite musical composers in the world? Otuside, blew me away!
I never played the original Castlevania so I didn’t get a chance to fall in love with its music until I heard your renditions! Thank you for bringing this soundtrack to life!
That was incredible! I admit that I've never played any of the Castlevania games, so I don't know any of the songs featured, but that doesn't stop me from enjoying them. You have a way of giving your music that nostalgic feel even for songs or games I've never experienced. Thanks for all your hard work in sharing your wonderful arrangements.
A little late, but II second this - I've played most of the games over the years, I loved Castlevania since I was 8 (I'm 30 now, so the franchise is a little older than I am), but didn't have all the consoles over the years, but I feel nostalgic for every single song, even the ones from the few games I missed. You did an amazing job! Thank you so much! Let's hope for another Castlevania collection (though I'd sa6y we need around 4-5 more to cover all the games.... that would be so amazing!)
Thanks for the great reception Stringees! This medley now out in the following shops: ITUNES: goo.gl/0csOrR LOUDR: goo.gl/V9FJVh BANDCAMP (Seamless File): goo.gl/93XvDK
+String Player Gamer Hey there, I just noticed that the Facebook, Patreon, and IG link in the description were cut off and don't lead to your pages. You might wanna fix that! Awesome work as always.
From someone who has spent a good active 6 or so years browsing through Castlevania remixes / tributes, I can say this is one of the very best Medleys I've ever listened to. Tremendously brilliant, this is an astutely put together piece.
You literally hit EVERY song I loved from the original series of games but have never heard a updated version of, as well as the music from those games that came after. Masterfully done and I'd Love to hear your renditions of Mega Man 1-3
Yesssss Chelle! Thank you so much! Gave you a little shoutout too. ;) And I totally love my Cartman cap. Cartslevania? LOL! I'm so excited for out next joint project *wink wink*
+String Player Gamer Richter: Tribute? You steal men's souls, and make them your slaves. Dracula: Perhaps the same could be said of all religions. Richter: Your words are as empty as your soul. Mankind ill needs a savior such as you. Dracula: What is a man?! A miserable little pile of secrets! But enough talk; have at you!

This is one of the best things to ever happen, and one of the most beautiful arrangements I've ever heard. Now here comes the obligatory "Y u no play Don't Wait Until Night" or "Castle Corridor."
16 minute awesome Castlevania medley = good ending in Simon's Quest I loved the selection/arrangements/performance! And that transition from Wood Carving Partita to Heart of Fire...
I'm so happy you included "Lost Painting"! I'm sure I'm not the only one who requested it, but I was definitely one voice in that chorus. Outstanding work overall! I'm sorry I'm two months late to the party. It's been a really busy autumn. Thank you for your wonderful work!
Time after time, I am impressed by each new arrangement, but it's no contest that this video is among my favorites so far. Thank you for sharing such a splendid performance.
Castlevania music is my favorite video game music of all time. This, by far the best medley in the interwebs. Thank you Diwa for this! Happy Halloween!
A long hike down nostalgia lane. Thank you for making this wonderful collection of cherished and distinct music from one of my favorite series during it's glory days of 2D.
These are some of the best covers of these songs I've ever heard. Probably 100 of the views are just from me listening over and over. Thanks so much for gifting the world with these arrangements!
From two fans who have grew up from the Castlevania series, you have nailed the epic theme/music embodied within the series please keep up the good work. You are amazing and we look forward to all future projects that you may embark upon.
My expectations were soaring for this one, and you still blew me away like always. You've done justice to both my favorite holiday and one of my favorite game franchises. This is the first time where I can't even pick out a favorite; They all sounded simply awesome. Also, extra respect for the Cartman hat. This latest season has had me dying of laughter every episode.
I'm not even a big Castlevania fan, but this is probably the best thing I've heard in my entire life! I have no words to describe how amazing this medley is! Eargasms all the way through! :D
Omg, you never fail to make me smile at music. Not only are your arrangements sooo powerfully AWESOME, but you also look like you're totally having a fun time. I LOVE IT, KEEP UP THE EXTRAORDINARY WORK!
Wow just wow, this was so amazing i immediately had to listen to the whole thing again. I'll probably end up listening to this many times over the next few weeks. This was definitely worth the wait and all the effort and time you put into it.
- Blushes. - UGGHHH my favorite one of all time is Lost painting.. I just love that music I listen to it every night :O. I also love to stare at Ayami's artwork while I listen to the soundtracks.
Honestly, with transitions this smooth between the songs, I think it would be hard to tell it's actualy a medley if it wasn't stated in the title of the video
If it was just one song it would have been phenomenal, but with all these amazing songs crammed into one video, one like really doesn't seem like anywhere near enough.
So far this is the best cover/medley for Castlevania songs imo. I listen to it almost everyday. A shame i didn't found it earlier. Greetings from Brazil.
I just realized. Castlevania was NES (or retro in general) Dark Souls. Same sort of themes (sort of a Gothic, Medieval horror setting) , dope ass music, both hard as balls, and Dark Souls is basically 3D Metroidvania. That said this medley is probably my favorite medley ever. I actually listen to this shit all the time and it's fucking great. You're a fucking legend my dood.
I haven't finished to watch and hear this and I'm already writing. This is so magnificent, so full of talent and feeling. I love it. I want to find a bottle with this talent and drink it! Congratulations!
One of the very best medley ever ! Everything is so just in his right place and the result sound absolutely divine. Can't thank you enough for that beautiful work !
I just time traveled to my childhood where I played and beat 90% of what you showed, beautiful thank you so much, back when music meant as much as the game :):):)
That transition from Vampire Killer to Beginning was KILLER!!
I actually finished watching without skipping.
Almost 6 years down the road, and I’m just now discovering this. Holy cow, this is AMAZING! As a Castlevania fan, this hit all the right notes. Thank you for this!
That moment when
you think the video is soon ended because of the many songs that were covered
but there is still 10min of hypepicness left.
This is the sort of dude who breaks down every secret wall for those delicious Castle wall hams.
Castlehamia
Mysterious wall chicken!
Lycanthromancer WALL TURKEY!
DRACULA:What is a String Player Gamer!? Well, he's actually quite fantastic. I recommend you experience his prowess. I think you'd quite fancy it Richter.
RICHTER:...... Uh, die..... monster?
DRACULA: Oh come now, you can spare 18 minutes before this endless dance you Belmont's and I have every hundred years or so can you not?
RICHTER: Know what? Yes. Yes I can. Whereabouts?
DRACULA: Dude, check it out, I have an UPSIDE DOWN CASTLE!!!!
RICHTER: °0°
RICHTER:well I forgive you
Bloody tears was simply amazing
Play, musician; and grace this world! Your music ever belongs here!
It was by your hand that these covers were given sound. You were called here by inspiration and to pay tribute!
These songs are as full as your soul, and mankind needs a musician such as you!
(What a fantastic night to have an arranged medley!)
1 year?
Easily worth the effort and time. You did a fantastic job.
+SashaandStorm
I've listened to so many covers of Castlevania, but this is the best so far!!! AWESOME!!!!
Nope Ferdk! Go and listen to his Castlevania soundtrack...he FUCKING ROCKS BRO🤘WAY BETTER... SOMEONE SHOULD GIVE FERDK A CONTRACT...go check it out
@@jovanlopez1660 me i like Ferdk but for me this is my favorite the reason is he put alot of feelings and efforts and he also put some orchestral instruments and its very fit to castlevania unlike to metal try to listen it again the part of dance of pales its very relaxing but yet powerful in a nice way. that's my opinion so i can't blame the other people for liking this arrangement cover. hope you understand my friend :)
@Rodrigo Ledur I agree with you
I'm crying right now! I'm 40 years old. I watched all my childhood in this medley. I preserve this games and they're consoles.
the parts from 10:10 are 10/10
You can really feel the energy and the dedication in those segments.
+Juanzor Thank you! Everything is let loose from that part onwards!
I fell powers in 4:48 :D
悪魔城ドラキュラの荘厳で哀愁に満ちた世界観を流れる様にメロディアスなアレンジで見事に表現した素晴らしい作品です。
You must be in possession of the legendary Vampire Killer Violin to be writing such slaying remakes. Well played, String Player Gamer!
This video deserves more views, the music is superb, flawless. The classic Castlevania songs in the best form I've ever heard.
Diwa this is a masterpiece, how are you not world famous yet??? 16 minutes for us, a year for you, it just blows my mind how amazing this is and how amazing YOU are. Dare I say it you're one of my favorite musical composers in the world? Otuside, blew me away!
I really have no answer to your question haha! But still thanks for listening! :)
After 5 years its still one of the best castlevania medleys out there.
Are you human? Fantastic, so much nostalgia. Amazing work!
Dick Wallace no, he is a machine!
All the songs in your castlevania medley are amazing.
Favorites: Bloody Tears, Beginning, Vampire Killer, and more!
I never played the original Castlevania so I didn’t get a chance to fall in love with its music until I heard your renditions! Thank you for bringing this soundtrack to life!
man all of this is amazing.
The more I listen to it, it gets better and better. My favorite 2 Castlevania songs in 1.
Man, your rendition of Heart of Fire is the best I've heard! Simply amazing!
+AkaiAzul Thanks! That's my all-time favorite 'Vania song so that's probably why.
***** :o You're also one of the few better known TH-cam people who's directly replied to my comments! *swoon*
IT IS THE BEST MEDLEY CASTLEVANIA MUSIC THAT I HAVE EVER HEARD !! GREAT ORCHESTRATION !! AMAZING ! WE CAN'T STOP LISTENING ! KEEP WALKING !!!!
That was incredible! I admit that I've never played any of the Castlevania games, so I don't know any of the songs featured, but that doesn't stop me from enjoying them. You have a way of giving your music that nostalgic feel even for songs or games I've never experienced. Thanks for all your hard work in sharing your wonderful arrangements.

Let's hope for another Castlevania collection (though I'd sa6y we need around 4-5 more to cover all the games.... that would be so amazing!)
I never thought I'd find another Poison Mind as badass as the one in CastleVania Dracula X Chronicles but damn dude, this came incredibly close.
Thanks for the great reception Stringees! This medley now out in the following shops:

+String Player Gamer Excellent job, I really do think you got the best videogame music. If you ever do a pokemon melody you will be my hero
another great masterful performance. 👍👍👍 up tho ii wish some of the songs were not cut 😔 still thumbs up 😊
+String Player Gamer 3:27 What is that weird sound there? Sounds like when you get a steam chat message.
Or is that supposed to be there?
+String Player Gamer Hey there, I just noticed that the Facebook, Patreon, and IG link in the description were cut off and don't lead to your pages. You might wanna fix that! Awesome work as always.
oh my, oh my, oh my, love it, love it, love it
From someone who has spent a good active 6 or so years browsing through Castlevania remixes / tributes, I can say this is one of the very best Medleys I've ever listened to. Tremendously brilliant, this is an astutely put together piece.
A magnificient way of waiting for your 100 000 subs, you evil genius. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
You literally hit EVERY song I loved from the original series of games but have never heard a updated version of, as well as the music from those games that came after.
Masterfully done and I'd Love to hear your renditions of Mega Man 1-3
My body was not ready for a melody of this magnitude. My body is defeated.
+Shaun W
This is some incredible talent. It's criminal that this doesn't have more views!
YAY Diwaaa - you did it! Huge accomplishment! It sounds/looks so great! Nice Cartman hat in the outro, too. ;D
Yesssss Chelle! Thank you so much! Gave you a little shoutout too. ;) And I totally love my Cartman cap. Cartslevania? LOL! I'm so excited for out next joint project *wink wink*
That rendition of Dracula's Castle rocks
How can 35 people NOT like this?
They're deaf?
Lol Doppelganger Orchestra. In true Castlevania fashion 😊
This is probably the most amazing Castlevania medley!
As an avid retro gamer, I always love listening to your covers of all the greats. Keep rocking, brother.
Hearing Symphony of the Night music makes me want to play it. So bad.
+TheInunah Me too!
It's just too bad there aren't more games with the same atmosphere and musical awesomeness as SotN.
Richter: Die monster! You don't belong in this world!
Dracula: It was not by my hand that I return...
Dracula: I was called here by humans who wish to pay me tribute.
+String Player Gamer Richter: Tribute? You steal men's souls, and make them your slaves.
Dracula: Perhaps the same could be said of all religions.
Richter: Your words are as empty as your soul. Mankind ill needs a savior such as you.
Dracula: What is a man?! A miserable little pile of secrets! But enough talk; have at you!

Now here comes the obligatory "Y u no play Don't Wait Until Night" or "Castle Corridor."
16 minute awesome Castlevania medley = good ending in Simon's Quest
I loved the selection/arrangements/performance! And that transition from Wood Carving Partita to Heart of Fire...
I'm so happy you included "Lost Painting"! I'm sure I'm not the only one who requested it, but I was definitely one voice in that chorus.
Outstanding work overall! I'm sorry I'm two months late to the party. It's been a really busy autumn. Thank you for your wonderful work!
You need 1 million subscribies! Your remix is amazing!
Time after time, I am impressed by each new arrangement, but it's no contest that this video is among my favorites so far. Thank you for sharing such a splendid performance.
+MrMarket1987 And thank you so much for staying on with my channel!
This is great!
Also the gameplay in the background has reminded how riddled with invisible semi-random stuff the original Castlevania was.
+Elliot Jenner Ahh yes the good old Konami days! Hahaha! Thanks man!
the transition from wood carving partita to heart of fire is so well done
Aww yeah, Vampire Killer, Bloody tears,Simon's theme and Heart of fire made it in! Amazing as always :)
+penandtag2 Good choices! Thank you!
This gives me goosebumps. Excellent work, Diwa. 👍
Great job! Simon Belmont would be proud!
+danmanx2 Thank you! Simon Belmont rocks!
Castlevania music is my favorite video game music of all time. This, by far the best medley in the interwebs.
Thank you Diwa for this! Happy Halloween!
+staple72 Thank you for the kind words! :D
This was absolutely incredible! I don't know how I haven't seen this before. I absolutely loved it, and what a great tribute. AMAZING job.
this is, by far, the best Castlevania music I've found! Congratulations, it's awesome!
Now that was damn good, it actually made me dust off my NES and play Castlevania while listening to it on repeat
A long hike down nostalgia lane. Thank you for making this wonderful collection of cherished and distinct music from one of my favorite series during it's glory days of 2D.
Veryyyy nice!! I usually listen to each and every one of those soundtracks but having it all as one is just mind blowing O_O
+Sac huhuhu Thank you!
These are some of the best covers of these songs I've ever heard. Probably 100 of the views are just from me listening over and over. Thanks so much for gifting the world with these arrangements!
dude, best castlevania medley on the WHOLE INTERNET
From two fans who have grew up from the Castlevania series, you have nailed the epic theme/music embodied within the series please keep up the good work. You are amazing and we look forward to all future projects that you may embark upon.
This is the most perfect arrangement I've ever heard in a Castlevania medley. Brilliantly preformed. Amazing. Wonderful. Awesome. Great.
Cheers!
This is AWESOME! It's worth waiting for!
+4everandeverwow Thank you for the patience man!

But it did. And it's beautiful
+Yashum Pi YES! And thank you so much for your patience!
Can't stop listening to this, thank you so much for making it!!!!!! :D it brings back so many good memories!! 💜
At 3:09 I half-expected an actual stop for the damn "What a horrible night to have a curse" text box, lol. Awesome arrangement btw!
I still keep coming back to listen to this. Love it.
I'm not even a big Castlevania fan, but this is probably the best thing I've heard in my entire life! I have no words to describe how amazing this medley is! Eargasms all the way through! :D

Happy Halloween indeed, an awesome horror rocker indeed!

This medley was done with a neoclassical metal feel to it. Which is the perfect approach to castelvania music.
Omg, you never fail to make me smile at music. Not only are your arrangements sooo powerfully AWESOME, but you also look like you're totally having a fun time.
I LOVE IT, KEEP UP THE EXTRAORDINARY WORK!
This medley deserves a lot more love!
Amazing job, one of my favorites playlist in spotify
This guy's effort is second to none.
Absolutely epic. From the arrival at the gates of Castlevania to the Requiem, I was transfixed.
So epic! Needs 100 times more views!
more like 1000
1.000.000
Wow just wow, this was so amazing i immediately had to listen to the whole thing again. I'll probably end up listening to this many times over the next few weeks. This was definitely worth the wait and all the effort and time you put into it.

Amazing work!!! I just listened to the entire thing and I'm about to hit repeat.
This is so beautiful it brings joy to my life. Thank you sir!
Jeez, an entire year. I don't know about you, but I say it was worth it. Bravo, you magical finger having man.

If it was just one song it would have been phenomenal, but with all these amazing songs crammed into one video, one like really doesn't seem like anywhere near enough.
Having given it some thought, this is one of my favourite videos on TH-cam. You rock!!
IT HAS FINALLY BEEN RELEASED!!! This is just magnificent :D Totally worth the time you spent slaving over it~ 💜
It's over, it's finally over! Haha! Thank you very much Terarara
So far this is the best cover/medley for Castlevania songs imo. I listen to it almost everyday. A shame i didn't found it earlier. Greetings from Brazil.
Wow, thank you!
I Like that little moment the guitar player and keyboard player share at 08:54
Amazing job, my friend!!
One of the best medleys I've ever seen. Perfect!!!!
Congrats!!!!
Thanks!
