This one's a classic Castlevania theme, making later appearances in Circle of the Moon and Legacy of Darkness. It's nice to see that this game will be available on the Genesis Mini. Do you prefer playing as the whip wielding John Morris or the spear wielding Eric Lecarde? I usually side with John Morris since the whip simply feels like the right choice in a classic Castlevania game, but I do like Eric as well.

I like to play with either both of them.

I always used Eric because he could attack in different directions.

The Genesis did a great job with Castlevania

I keep hearing the sound that plays when Sonic enters a special stage

Eric Lecarde is way better than John, also i love this game's soundtrack!

Can you upload SD Gundam galaxian-over soundtrack? It's underrated gundam game. Thank you with all my life I'll wait for this. https://youtu.be/GFf1sfDWoQo

Catchy tune. Good choice!

Finally! What took you soo long to include this awsome track? I'm getting that Genesis mini, Bloodlines is a must have. Eventhough I had my fair share of hating this game, sometimes too unfair; It grew up on me a lot over the years. I also like a lot the Legacy of Darkness one. Personally I call it the Perfect Version.

Well now... This is one of my favorite themes from the game. I first heard it in Circle of the Moon, where it was hampered by the GBA's inferior soundsets. I first played Bloodlines a few years back and once more found that even on the Megadrive, Castlevania rocks. I'm so glad it got rereleased on Steam and will be on the Megadrive Mini too. Thanks for adding the theme to your collection SupraDarky. Now I do wonder, any chance of adding Prayer of a Tragic Queen and Calling from Heaven as well?

I heard the Circle of the Moon version first and definitely prefer it. But this has its moments too.

I decided to buy/play the game because I fell head over heels in love with this track. Needless to say, it was money well spent.

I like that this game has been getting a lot of attention recently through the Castlevania Collection and the Genesis Mini. Before those, having the cartridge itself and a Genesis was the ONLY way to legitimately play this game. The N64, GBA and DS Castlevania are slowly following suit.

Eyyy, my favorite theme finally made it in (though I prefer Legacy of Darkness's slow variant.)

One of the few songs I would've liked to hear in Smash.

Would have been awesome if it was a scrolling stage too

I love this song, but I prefer the non-bleepy arrangement they used for Circle of the Moon.

My favorite OST of the entire series ! Too bad the Genesis does have those crappy audio chipset, though

This soundtrack is one of the many legendary ones in the Castlevania series.
