I recently picked this one up again and found it really funny when I donned the Alucart Set the moment I entered the Forbidden Library. The first Schmoo I killed dropped the Crissaegrim instantly. I haven't laughed so hard in a while. 😆
@@JohnLucPicard98 In one of my more recent playthroughs, it took me forever. Then again, I already had the Masamune at the time and the Schmoos probably got jealous. XD
I'm currently playing it for my first time, and when i arrived at the upside library i was shocked by the music, so calming, a nice contrast from the enemies tho.
I had the pleasure of playing it for the first time recently too. Such a good game. It's reputation is well deserved. I found it awesome even now, after playing many newer metroidvanias. I can't imagine playing it in 1997.
Why are half of these comments from less than a week ago? Did everyone just subconsciously agree to replay through symphony of the night at the same time? Not that I’m complaining, it’s a great game with an equally great ost, i just find it odd
Maybe It's UA-cam algorhythm favoring this link, over the others. I used to visit another channel for this kind of music, but It seems to have been disabled.
For me, it's because UA-camrs like brawlbrst3 X and silentweaponsiii are gone, which means most of the extended versions of their songs are gone with them. I really enjoy this game though. It's so fun, especially replaying the game as Richter.
I am thankful for this extended version, I’m trying to restore higher pitches in my voice by singing along to this and it’s already starting to work. From the bottom of my heart, thank you ❤️
This tune soothes me through the tough nights several times. As all done and I finally could rest in my bed it plays with the soft sunlight in the dawn. I enjoy the moment then fall asleep. Good old memorizes in the good old days. SOTN is just a masterpiece in every aspect, especially its epic original soundtracks. The state of art 12/10.
Honestly my only gripe is how easy it is, but you can circumvent that by challenging yourself by limiting what you can use and stuff. It’s definitely still a masterpiece, basically everything especially the music makes up for it
This theme feels so...ethereal. Just like the area where it plays. It almost feels empty there, and yet rather homey too. Definitely my favorite SotN theme
The soundtrack is the epitome of the story. The game in its entirety is an artistic masterpiece. One doesn't have to be an artist, genius, exceptional to instinctually recognize that serious effort and love was put into this game. The story is a sad one. It is a dark one that symbolizes how hate can destroy families, humanity, and vengeance and anger is precipitous to destruction of oneself (dracula).
When you arrive upside library, equip holy rod/holy sword + lapis lazuli and ring of arcana (rare ring/japanese version) or 2 ring or arcana (rare ring/japanese version), and let's go hunt Schmoo ("Q" on japanese version) to drop the best sword Crissaegrim (Val Manwe/japanese version) ^_^
One of the best soundtracks to a one of the best games ever to grace the playstation, and if you have the black disc version and put it your cd player and play a certain track number it actually has hidden tracks to play. But this is one of my fave songs from the game it's just so amazing calm but adventurous at the same time
Whenever I hear this music, I remember using the Mist form on the Inverted Cathedral, on that very long stairs part. So many enemies, especially those Sniper of Goth. :D
I played through all of the Castlevanias (1 through SotN) for my first time last September. I am still listening to so many of the songs since then, but this song especially so. I still vividly remember my first time hearing it, and it has stuck with me ever since. I will probably listen to this for years to come!
This song is sending a message to the player that your long journey through the castle is almost coming to an end, and your grand battle with Dracula awaits
I hope this concept returned if there's next CV game Or at least make a whole area based on this concept. ( ex. the room inverts everytime you leave that room , and the boss on that area should utilize that gimmick , give it a chase scene like in Potrait of Ruin , but you have to play it smart as the boss have 2 modes , blue and red . Red one is invulnerable to hits , and it moves fast. Blue one is where you should hit them, and it moves slower than red counterpart. The thing is , you have to invert the whole stage to avoid obstacles )
I just bought a print of a painting inspired by this song at a convention. I've never played the games, but it was so gorgeous that I couldn't stop looking at it! It came with info from the artist about the inspiration and that they recommended listening to the song whilst looking at the painting for full admiration. I now love this song, as well.
I finished the mobile version of the game, and I really miss it already XD. I have never had this happen to me before and I've been playing video games all my life. This game is really special.
Dracula: "Thats funny. I don't remember a stack of paintings jutting from the wall where my first gold coin used to be. In fact, I dont remember this painting at all!"
This song everytime it plays when i reached the libary or the 2nd part of the castle. It always hits home. Such an amazing song that you can always come back to listen.
Just finished play it on PS4 recently again and earned my Platinum Trophy for this game, what a timeless master piece! I am here to listen the relaxable yet beautiful Lost Painting.
Even if Lost painting is my favorite track from Castlevania, the Bloody tears remake for the castlevania DLC on the game Dead Cells is fire. It got a very strong organ at the start, the theme is catchy and exhilarating, much to love about it ! Though like I said, Lost painting remains my favorite for the pure relaxing and "nostalgic" vibe it gives me
This ranks up there with Empty Tome for me lol. Both set the tone of their game wonderfully (even if they come in at the halfway point in their games 😊)
@@alyssasalmon4883 i played Sotn and rondo of blood, other than that i played those Lords of shadow. what do u recommend me to start with? aria of sorrow or order of ecclesia?
Having now played all the other metroidvania games except for Circle - i'm not even sure which game i can consider to be "the greatest" now. Each has their ups and downs but i had a great time with all of them.
I hope this song plays in castlevania series where alucard finally lives a happy life like an ending to castlevania netflix series.. but with slower and brighter version of melody of course..
I mean this track already reminds me of Leafeon. Just imagine Leafeon walking through a forest, enjoying the sunshine between the trees while this music plays.
Entire game is a sorrowful and dark sad game in terms of plot and storyline. Alucard, his father and mother, humanity wrapped in this painful unending sorrowful affair where innocents are dying due to fear, anger, unacceptable relations, etc. Why this game was WAY before its time and also the story is way deeper than most games.
Konami back in the days had a unique digital sound in their music modern gaming just doesnt have.Like its low-ish quality,but its the best quality.I cant really describe it well.My grandmother,rest her over-religious soul, used to get angry for falling asleep while playing and usually the Inverted Library was the level that did it to me because of the atmosphere&Lost Painting playing over it.
I believe some instruments in this beauty are in fact the "pizzagogo" preset of the Roland D-50 Linear Synthesizer. The same preset was used in Enya´s Orinoco flow.
I love this tune and hands down see it better then bloody tears and other tunes in castlevania because unlike other tunes this has a mystical feel to it and it actively suits the game and area of the game its in where alot of the tunes especially bloody tears is like OH YEAH THERES ACTION BROTHER LOTS OF IT THIS SONG IS ACTION PACKED LIKE THE GAME OHHHH YEAAAAAH I'M THE CREAM OF THE CROP NO OTHER ACTION SONG IS ON TOP I'M THE MACHO BLOODY TEARS MAN

As overplayed as Final Toccata may be - this theme however in my opinion fit perfectly with each of the locations it was used in. The Inverted Library along with it's light blue color palette, giving it a mysterious and magical feel. The Inverted Chapel along with it, being a chapel - giving it a comforting and refreshing feel.

I put my baby to sleep with the song, it really works, and love it. 😍
Interesting
then imagine what's happen in his dream :)
Listening to this while closing my eyes and taking deep breaths never fails to calm me down.
@@Diablo2addict-u2x the baby be grinding for that Crissaegrim in his dream xD
Good dreams.
when this song plays I hear the Crissaegrim slashing, the Tin Man steam engine and the sword familiar "SLICE!!!!"
Ah, SOTN. A true classic. Thankfully, it's got worthy successors these past 25 years as it deserves.
Bloodstained ritual of the night is worthy. That man Iga knows his genre 🙏
@@JohnLucPicard98 dont think so, it's pretty good but nowhere near close to the level of SotN, DSvanias, Aria :(
Hollow Knight is in par with Symphony of the Night. Art, gameplay, and music, a true masterpiece.

best track imo
Good night😂
Playing this against my belly for my unborn daughter. She's moving like crazy. Gonna make her nerdy like mama and daddy.
that's cute. congratulations!
The baby name is Alucard
Sorry if I'm late but you could name her Maria.
I named her after my late mother so no nerdy name for her. But my 10 year old is named after a Resident Evil 2 character!
😵
I'm currently playing it for my first time, and when i arrived at the upside library i was shocked by the music, so calming, a nice contrast from the enemies tho.
Most of the enemies are references from Wizard of Oz

This is my favorite music in the entire Castlevania series.
I've been using these long renditions as background music.
Thanks for uploading these
This theme feels so...ethereal. Just like the area where it plays. It almost feels empty there, and yet rather homey too. Definitely my favorite SotN theme
Lost painting reminds me of walking in a snowy park alone while thinking to yourself

I love Simon's Quests OST. My favorite ever
Then listen again.
It sounds like sinking old sanctuary with another song but I can’t remember
At 150% the plucked strings in the background sound like the start of Out Of Time from CV1
2009 me farming those damn Schmoos for the Crissaegrim
Alucart, son of Trácula, will help you. 😉
This song is sending a message to the player that your long journey through the castle is almost coming to an end, and your grand battle with Dracula awaits
Grinding for 3 hours for the Crissaegrim this was burned into my brain
I sincerely wonder why no one puts this much effort in game soundtracks anymore
Sem hesitar, uma das melhores músicas de jogos de todos os tempos e sem contar claro que Castlevania tbm é uma dos icônicos! Saudades anos 90 rsrs
Lost Paintning é a melhor musica da série inteira, depois vem Dracula Castle

go to song when i want to relax 2024
This plays when you die and go to heaven.

Not really a Christmas track but if it gives good vibes, might be worth a shot, playing that on Christmas.

Reverse Long Library, Reverse Underground Cavern or Reverse Royal Chapel.
Songs to poke your eye too.
(Props to whoever gets this reference.)
I learned this so g from beat saber
For this soundtrack, i like to stay more time in the chapel, library and underground caves from the Inverted castle.
As overplayed as Final Toccata may be - this theme however in my opinion fit perfectly with each of the locations it was used in.
The Inverted Library along with it's light blue color palette, giving it a mysterious and magical feel.
The Inverted Chapel along with it, being a chapel - giving it a comforting and refreshing feel.
And the Inverted Underground Area with it's icy areas, fitting that place's cold aesthetic. The slight echo works great to further enhance that feel.
Still though, i really wish that the whole Inverted castle wasn't as rushed as it turned out to be. The game becomes kinda boring from that point onward, even with Saturn exclusive areas.
This track kind of reminds me of Leafeon for some reason but to be honest, it suits it so well 😸
anyone else hear the similarity to Out Of Time from the original Castlevania?
Idk about you guys, but the inverted castle was torture for me.
