On June 30, 2017, Lakeshore Records announced they were taking pre-orders for the upcoming soundtrack to Netflix’s Castlevania. Canadian composer Trevor Morris has written the score and you may recognize his name as he composed the music for Dragon Age: Inquisition, and several notable TV series including The Tudors, The Borgias (whose theme song won an Emmy Award), The Pillars of the Earth and Vikings.
I hadn’t realized that Bloody Disgusting had previewed the series Main Title Theme on June 23, 2017, but in case you missed their article you can check it out here. The music features a wonderful blend of strings, brass, solid percussion and a hint of chorals. What has me very excited about this is that Trevor Morris has mastered composing for historical period pieces which I think is a perfect fit for the world of Castlevania.
The album is available for pre-order digitally on Amazon, iTunes and Apple music here. The soundtrack will be released on CD on August 4, 2017, and was released digitally on July 7, 2017.
Lakeshore Records also revealed the album’s tracklist which you can view by clicking further into this article as to avoid any spoilers. Are you excited for this Netflix Original Series?
