- Singing and playing viola da gamba on this soundtrack was an amazing experience! Here's a behind-the-scenes look at how I performed Divine Bloodlines and the Divine Bloodlines Reprise that played during the credits of episode 6. Thank you eternally to composers Trey Toy and Trevor Morris!
The Castlevania: Nocturne soundtrack is out NOW!

Damn that was amazing! Now I just wanna see you sing Divine Bloodlines without the scene playing in the background
Super boring without the scene lol🩸 #CastlevaniaNocturne #DivineBloodlines #Castlevania
@@AriMasonThis is everything but boring, this is incredible! 👏
I grew up with this song, back then when I heard it for the first time 25 years ago. Gives me strength in rough times. I know it probably doesnt matter but I just wanna thank you.
These types of comments actually matter a lot to me! Thank you for sharing your connection to this song!
@@AriMason Spotify just gave me one of your songs. Great work. Move over Grimes
I've listened to this song SO MANY times after this season dropped on Netflix.
You brought new life and energy into such an iconic theme with your majestic vocals.
Beautiful work Ari.
same
You were absolutely amazing in this scene! Such a fantastic performance!
Honestly I wasn't so sure about watching this new series, but this new version of divine bloodlines was the biggest incentive to watch the series, so thank you
It's the first time I've heard such a beautiful voice. From Japan
This is easily one of the best iterations of Divine Bloodlines if not the best. I got into Castlevania for the first time in high school I think, but there’s one thing I think we all can agree on. The music for Castlevania games or otherwise is always very good.
You have one of the most beatiful voices I've ever heard. Plus this was my favorite scene in Castlevania.
Aww, thank you for your kind words!
The first time I heard that ending song, I thought, wow, that's really beautiful. That's no doubt in part to Ari being such a wonderful singer.
Ari, you did an excellent job of doing the Divine Bloodlines. You make me happy when you did that, though. I grew up playing Castlevania Dracula X on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System.
I watched this scene mere minutes ago. My jaw DROPPED.
I kid you not as I was writing this I swung my arm around, mimicking Richter's movements, and knocked a glass off my desk and it SHATTERED. Great song though. Great animation. I'm loving Nocturne! Have a nice day
My favorite version of Divine Bloodlines. Such a beautiful rendition! I had no idea you did all the voices
This is easily the best version of the song yet! Nice work!
It's one thing to be singing on this track but you did your thing on the viola. My WORD. You gave life to a track I didn't even think needed it at first. Your talent and extra seasoning was peak for all of this show and even standalone for the song. Easily my fave rendition of Divine Bloodlines that you have to listen to it as a suite to fully appreciate your work here.
Thank you so much!!! When I was told how much this song would mean to the fans, I put my all into it!
@@AriMason It shines through quite clearly in that right. Thoroughly impressed!
This scene made me cry. This was always my favorite Castlevania song, bar none! You breathed a new and beautiful life into it! From the bottom of my younger self’s heart, thank you! Keep doing what you love!
You're excellent.
My lord I must have listened to this song about a 100 times or more at least since I watched Nocturne and the music was BONE CHILLING. I was sooo hooked and my lord fit the scene so well. Can I just say how happy I am that smaller animated studios reaching out to unknown and smaller music composers is so freaking awesome? It's happening more often and I'm super glad that people are getting the recognition they deserve for making such beautiful music. I have no idea if you came up with the lyrics yourself (Latin) and the arrangement but either way for you to record it all by yourself and sing it single handed was amazing. WELL DONE and I REALLY hope that you come back in season 2 for more BONE CHILLING music.
Thank you for the excellent work. The OST have become my favorite playlist on Spotify right now.
hopefully more performances for season 2!
Thanks for bringing this track and scene to life!
Beautiful vocals on an iconic track from one of my favourite games from when I was a kid!
Me encanto está version de Castlevania Divine Bloodlines, espero ansioso la segunda temporada
Impressive! I grew with music of Castlevania series, I have heard various versions of Divine Bloodlines, this is the most beautiful and remarkable one by far. You did a great job!
Such an amazing voice and talent. Thank you for sharing this with all of us!
Oh thats amazing. I love how the vocals are haunting, yet hopeful. Like their in awe of Richtor's true strength.
It elivates the scene so stunningly
the vocals really give me chills, amazing job!
Goosebumps all over. Voice of an Angel. God Bless 🙏🏻.
Such a beautiful work 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
This is my favourite song in the entire series great work i’ve been listening to this on repeat after finishing it ❤
Phenomenal performance! I've listened to it dozens of times since the series dropped and i always get chills
one of my top remix versions i love of a game ost
I grew up playing Castlevania, your rendition of Divine Bloodlines is an absolute blast!
When I was young, I loved this song. It has a certain "Magic" on it.
Your version is even better. You put the magic in the music. And it's more than appropiate for the scene! So, thank you for this one. And I hope to hear even more of you!
Amazing
This version of divine bloodlines really kicks like a mule!
I discovered your music by chance, through Spotify autoplay. One night, I fell asleep with headphones in my ears and the volume turned all the way up.
When I woke up, Spotify was playing your fantastic "Beasts Tonight".
What an amazing experience
Thanks for your music!
Live long and prosper 🖖🏻

I did not particular care for Nocturne nor the previous seasons. They have not really struck me as great. It's not bad either, but nothing to really talk about.
However, this is, IMO, one of the best scenes EVER. The way they incorporated Bloodlines into this scene is undescribeable. I seriously cannot put it into words how it is. Saying you did an excellent job on this (esp. the chorus part) is a severe understatement.
Thank you for the job you did.
This was a highlight of the season for me and I wouldn’t have punched NEARLY as hard without your vocals!
You did such an amazing job in this track !!! I’m blasting it Everytime I have a chance it’s so damn epic ! Cheers from Belgium !
Hype and goosebumps are an understatement for this crazy moment🤩😱🤯 excellent job😁😍
Amazing work: divine bloodlines reprisal is amazing
It would be great if someone puts lyrics to this epic song, sung by your grace
Amazing ❤
I'm so happy to see you are still doing music! I always really loved you ☺️
It made me so happy to see something so recent 🌹
Thanks! I've been active since 2014 and have never stopped--I'm working a lot in film, tv, and video games the past few years. But I've still been putting out at least one solo album every two years as usual! My sixth album came out last December called Prodrome, in case anybody missed it. I think it's my best one:)
I can't stop listening to this version of Divine Bloodlines. Absolutely fantastic work!
I was admiring how epic this song was while watching the show - what a pleasant surprise to see that a new fav artist did the vocals! Excellent work
Thank you for listening to my music! So glad you liked this song💖
Your stuff is great, keep it up!
There’s a part of the song where you or someone is chanting or singing rapidly along with the music. I heard it in the show but I can’t find that part in any of the music. It sounded so epic that it’s killing me not being able to find whatever ost that was.
That's me, and it is happening here although it's really hard to hear. You can hear it really clearly in the Divine Bloodlines Trailer version, which has been released as part of the soundtrack so it's actually pretty easy to find!
@@AriMasonThank you! That scene was so epic I just had to find it again!
Hope we get to hear more of you in season 2!
Belíssima voz Angel lírica
I love it thank you so much!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️✨✨✨✨
You're so welcome💖
big fan of your songs! your singing parts were great, cant say much for that opera singer character tho.
Whoever came up with those lyrics is a genius. So deep and poetic. I especially likek the "oooo" part.
Thanks I worked super hard on them
Very beautiful and love the viola da gamba parts towards the end. I would love it if you used that a bit more in your own solowork also.
I don't know you but i love you 😍😍😍
Hmm, is there lyrics you sang towards the end? Or is it only vocalizations?
I am singing in Latin for the reprise (the second track here). In the second half of Divine Bloodlines (first track), there are multiple tracks of me chanting in Latin too, but I didn’t want to clutter the screen with multiple shots of my face during an action sequence
@AriMason Oh cool! I knew I could make out Latin!
Can you please share the lyrics? Their meaning? Or are you not allowed to?
@@MetaloraYeah I wanna know what the lyrics are
Wonderful track. Are the lyrics to it available anywhere? I’ve not had any luck searching for them online and sadly lack a good ear for (what sounds like) Latin.
I was going to sing something plain and ordinary and simple before I finished this song, but fuck it.
I really wanted him to say something witty or boss at that moment. It would have solidified the intensity. Still good tho 👌🏾
