Synthesist Gil Assayas (Glasys) shared his shredtacular live take on Plant Castle theme from Castlevania II: Belmont’s Revenge, released on Gameboy in 1991 by Konami.
The music for Castlevania II was composed by Hidehiro Funauchi.
Here’s what Assayas has to say about the technical details:
All sounds performed live simultaneously on Sequential Prophet XL, Prophet 6, Studio Electronics Boomstar 4075 and Arcadia custom controller.
Pedals used are Chase Bliss Audio Thermae, Cooper FX Generation Loss, Red Panda Tensor. Drum samples are from NI Battery 4.
I use a delay on the hi-hat samples and Polyverse Gatekeeper on the bass sound for the rhythmic effects.
this is fucking insane. <3
Love it. Amazing dexterity between controllers.
Awesomeness
Drums and bass with one hand. Amazing!
