Castlevania 2: Simon’s Quest Medley - NES

By: Kenichi Matsubara, Satoe Terashima

In the spirit of the season we doubled down on the spookiness. Jason absolutely nails this one! Here are some of his notes:

I think NES music has influenced me as much as any guitarist and Kenichi Matsubara made probably my favourite video game soundtrack on the infamous Castlevania II: Simon’s Quest. There are some cool covers of some of these tunes on YouTube but I wanted this version to be stripped down and as close to the 8 bit version as possible so you can really appreciate the cool stuff happening with the guitars weaving in and out of harmony. Happy Halloween!
