Sir you i like a lot hope you go far.

[@Crunkman2k]

I was not expecting Monster Dance, Dwelling of Doom, and Mad Forest to show up here. Most of the time when Castlevania music gets done for this kind of thing, it's limited to Vampire Killer, Bloody Tears, and/or Beginning. Nobody ever remixes/orchestrates those (especially Monster Dance, holy crap), shows that you guys actually know your stuff.
Also that version of Brinstar Depths/Kraid's Lair was beautiful, really captured the unsettling, foreboding, isolated feel that it's supposed to.

[@luisiglesias6101]

Totally agree!

[@thinkingfubuki]

I like how it starts off with mostly Castlevania stuff, then ends with a huge fanfare from Metroid.
And, of course, how each song blends into the next so well. Good arrangement!

[@Nazgul_Rex]

Amazing performance! The transitions between music from Metroid and Castlevania were very well done. I only wish that I had some way to purchase your music.

[@blackhearteg2759]

That was amazing! Two of the greatest videogame franchises of all time united in a magical performance. Keep doing it guys!

[@Midn8_Qc]

WOW! J'ai assisté à beaucoup de vos concerts à Otakuthon et aux 2 de Québec et j'avais jamais entendu cette pièce. Étant un IMMENSE fan des deux franchises et de leur musique, je viens d'être ému aux larmes, c'était MAGNIFIQUE!

Oh wow! Quel compliment. Merci!

[@Softenuneh]

Nice, one of the best things in the world is listend to orchestrated versions of nintendo music. Continue playing 😍

[@jmjm7641]

Just incredible

[@Shijunos1]

Incredible performance. I wish I could watch it live.

Come to Montreal ;)

[@Aeroprism]

C'est glorieusement magnifique, comme toujours. Metroid! METROID! Vous êtes les plus fort. Pas de compétition.

[@ChiefSmackahoLLC]

I never ever ever thought I'd hear an orchestral Kraid's theme let alone the original Metroid theme... This is amazing. my only bitch is that they did not include the iconic Norfair/Magmoor caverns theme. That would have put this way over the edge. Anyway maybe next show will have a little more Metroid and not so much vania

[@sebasstheflash9495]

Amazing!!!

[@Skiziteur]

Bravo !!!

[@scottwillard7998]

[@SteveTaylorGames]

Incredible as always, though is the title "Final Fantasy SNES" for anyone else?
ya might have to change that if it's not just me

[@benjaminstorace6699]

Same, though the tab says otherwise. Probably one of those RUclips quirks. 1:54pm 4/6/18 EST for reference.

[@macmcseboy]

EPIC WIN!

[@asspsu0112]

[@paxtonfairbanks9216]

I misread Metroidvania and Megalovania. Was not disappointed though.

5:26 C'est un archet de violon qui joue du glockenspiel/vibraphone en arrière à gauche?
Ça sonne comme le son d'une coupe qu'on fait résonner avec son doigt.

[@Bobbeyjazz]

Daniel Major oui! C'est bel et bien ça! ;)

[@MrMattRib]

I first thought the vania was from megalovania

[@MrMattRib]

[@averypatrick5279]

I hate myself for reading this as megalovania.
