Video Game Music Month Song #30: I Am The Wind

This is it. The curtain call and swan song of the list. It's been one heck of a run, but all good things must come to an end sometime, and I can't think of any better way to end things than with a great song to send goosebumps to the nostalgic gamer out there. Anyone who's played Castlevania: Symphony of the Night knows what I'm talking about, and the song I've picked for the finale is none other than the stellar ending theme to the legendary Konami adventure and classic - "I Am The Wind". Sung by Cynthia Harrell (who also sang "Snake Eater", the opening theme of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater). It's one of those video game themes that I've kept near and dear to my heart, and its jazzy tune accompanied by perfectly written lyrics are so inspiring and beautiful that I'm always in awe every time I listen to this song. Give this classic a listen.;)





With that, this brings an end to my Video Game Music Month list. Thanks for listening!

Video Game Music Month Song #26: Vampire Killer

25 years of whipping out the Vampire Killer is a long time. If there's any way to celebrate a quarter of a century's existence and note how much of an impact the franchise has made in gaming history, then there's no better way to commemorate Castlevania's 25th Anniversary than playing the iconic theme song that has carried over to most installments of the Konami series - Vampire Killer.


Castlevania OST - Vampire Killer

Funny. It's the 26th installment of the list, and it's for a game that was released on September 26, 1986. How utterly appropriate.
