I've practically already praised you in the topic concerning of you playing most of this song with that bag over your head (which was the shite by the way) But being a long time Castlvania fan, (since numero 1) This does justice to Clockwork, so including I like me some piano solos often, so again, Dshu, great job!

Outstanding. Performances like this make me want to learn to play the piano.

This song really grows on you after repeated listenings. I mean it was great from the get go but over the last few weeks ive been listening to it and all I can say is Amazing

The youtube video is nice but the echo's and lower quality dont do it justice, Listen to the MP3.

Dhsu is a piano master, no doubt about it. This piece starts out somewhat slow and ponderous, but it's the frantic, frenetic, and downright amazing stuff in the second half that really makes this arrangement shine.

Wow, someone just sent me a message on YouTube telling me they transcribed the entire thing into Mario Paint Composer by ear. Impressive! Most impressive!

[Scaredsim]

w00t! That's great : D

A classic OCR track, IMO. It has a grea tfeel throughout, and the ending half is totally rocking stuff.

Not much to say but this is (vampire) killer work, and you should check it out immediately.

The unhurried pace of the first source playthrough hints at the delicate thoughts and emotions it covets. Then, as if to throw them out the window, the second iteration morphs into a perilous yet poetic simulation of the Clock Tower falling apart (or maybe it's just Trevor quickening his footsteps on the stairs). The intensity pulls back at just the right moment in Vampire Killer (2:14) before ramping back up with an extra helping of tense bass notes (2:29) and closing with a final tease of Clockwork.

Bag or no bag over head, this is a cheeky little romp.

Oh wow. I feel like I got a "two for the price of one" remix. This is a really interesting because of the mood and tempo changes; it's like the entire mix is a whirlwind crescendo. First half is melancholy and well paced, then the chaos seeps in giving it a panicky, hurried feel, which as an immediate prelude to Vampire Killer seems so deliciously appropriate. Needless to say, this is an awesome mix.
