♫THE SILENCE OF DAYLIGHT #2 (Castlevania II) SNES Arrangement - NintendoComplete
192This is an arrangement of "The Silence of Daylight" from Konami's Castlevania II: Simon's Quest for the NES. It has been arranged for native playback on SNES hardware, and the audio was recorded directly from a launch-model SNES deck.
It's October, and I was in the mood for some Castlevania. This started as just a straight cover that I made to have a go at mimicking the sound of the NES on the SNES, but then I figured I'd have a bit of fun mucking around with it and this was the end result. While working on it, it occurred to me that I had never heard anything resembling trap brass on the SNES. Totally random, yes, but synthy horn blasts did make for some fun experimentation. I had Edward Scissorhands on in the background when I was working on it, so the crazy religious lady in that movie was what inspired the organ bits :)
Thank you for listening!
