There's been a demand for more Castlevania and looking back on my videos it's been a long time since I satiated those requests. Heart of Fire is a tune that was stored in the back of my brain to suppress my frustration with the later part of the game but hearing it again made me remember that when I wasn't a complete rage case at the level, the music is amazing! I actually think it was the Super Guitar Bros. who reintroduced me to the song with their medley of it.

Every cover I've ever done has been a challenge, otherwise there'd be no fun in doing them. I try to push myself with every video I do to become a better player. That being said, few covers are this much of a testament of my all together patience and frustration. If you're listening to this cover, you're listening to the fourth time I've had to record the whole thing due to my external hard drive deciding to commit a random file holocaust. Lost most of my original tones, tracks, midi rolls and the one thing that I think took the biggest hit, all my original mixing. Especially after a grueling set of finals, this cover was no picnic. I wish I still had the original tracks since I thought they were so much clearer, but a deadline is a deadline. Hope you enjoy it all the same! I tried to pretend I was enjoying recording this for the fourth time!

Next week, maybe I should something happier? Maybe something indier? Haven't done something like that in ages!
