Good afternoon!
I've been working hard on the next song, Bowser Castle GBA, and took a quick break to get this short out for you. This one's for Jamison P., it's a bit of Wily Stage 1 from Mega Man 7.
One song I've been wanting to cover this year, ever since doing it in the first Mega Man Medley actually, is the intro stage from MM7. Personally it's my favorite song from t...

Here's the latest for you: The Decisive Battle from Final Fantasy V!
This was the latest Patreon drawing winner for XenomorphicTendencies. I've always thought this would be an interesting song to do, it's quite a bit different from the usual Final Fantasy boss themes.
I'm still planning to do Clash on the Big Bridge sometime this year. Another song I've had on my want-to-do list is N...

Hey everyone! Here's your early download for FFV Decisive Battle.
Also included in this remix is Evil Lord Exdeath which serves as the intro and the solo section.
I may or may not have the video up tomorrow, if not it'll be up by Tuesday. Enjoy!
2017-01-22 20:28:56 +0000 UTC View PostGood evening everyone!
I was hoping to get FFV Decisive Battle up tomorrow but I just got the first song draft finished earlier, so it'll probably be a few more days while I smooth it out and record/edit the video. I should have the early download up this weekend so keep your eyes out.
I actually spent a lot of time working on the Patreon Album son...
2017-01-21 05:10:47 +0000 UTC View PostAnd also, here's an acoustic short for you tonight. This one's for Andrew Eddy, it's the neutral Chao Garden theme from Sonic Adventure 2.
Did the whole thing since again this one's pretty simple, so it does loop!
Enjoy!
2017-01-19 02:57:54 +0000 UTC View PostIt's preview time!
Here's the first part of the upcoming song, FFV Decisive Battle.
Since this plays during the normal Exdeath battles, I thought it'd be cool to throw in 'Evil Lord Exdeath' as the intro, which is what this preview is.
If all goes according to plan I should have the first draft for this one done tomorrow and will work on the video some tomorrow and Friday and should ...

I've been working hard on lots of stuff including the upcoming song, FFV Decisive Battle, among other things, and decided to take a break to make a post.
I thought we could do something a little different and have a discussion about what our top 3 favorite game soundtracks are, and why (if you feel like going into detail xD).

With Star Dream out of the way I can finally get back to catching up on these acoustic shorts! Expect 1-2 per day for.. probably the rest of the month, haha.
Here's one for Ryan T., this is Derris-Kharlan ~Appear~ from Tales of Symphonia.
I'll definitely be getting to the Tales series this year! Looks like now I have something for the end card, haha.

The latest in GaMetal technology is here: All three phases from the normal Star Dream battle from Kirby: Planet Robobot!
This song has had a TON of requests over the past few months, easily taking the top spot for (previously) the most requested song right now.
I'm insane for thinking I'd be able to get this one out before the year was over. It took me FOREVER to get all the synth/keyboard...

The 2017 premiere is finally complete! I'll be finishing up editing the video tonight and will have it ready to go tomorrow.
I'm crazy for thinking I could possibly get this up before 2016 was over. The synths/non-guitar/drum instruments took me like 3-4 days to get together alone.
This does include all three phases of the...
2017-01-13 18:30:59 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone!
I don't think I mentioned this, but preview posts from this point forward will be available to all tiers! This was previously a Tier 3+ reward.
Here's the first minute or so of Star Dream. This one's been taking me a while because there's just a crazy amount of synth stuff going on that has been a bit of a (welcome) challenge, especially on t...

Congratulations XenomorphicTendencies, a winner is you!
The RandomPicker.com drawing is complete and this month's winner is Decisive Battle (the normal Exdeath battle theme) from Final Fantasy V.

2017-01-08 00:54:25 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone!
I've been hard at work on Star Dream the past few days, and it's currently about 60% done. I'm expecting the synth parts to take me a bit longer than usual, since a lot of sections (especially the P-R-O-G-R-A-M section) are extremely synth and effect heavy. My plan is to have this one finished by around the 10th of the month.
But for now, we have the next
One more for you today, this one's for Hornlitz, it's the Lorule Castle theme from LoZ: A Link Between Worlds.
The original is super long (for a Zelda song), so this is a condensed version (the song structure here was actually arranged by Hornlitz himself).
Enjoy!
2017-01-04 00:18:03 +0000 UTC View PostGood afternoon Patrons!
I've been hard at work on the upcoming song Star Dream, I just finished the rhythm guitars a little bit ago. Took a break to get you a couple more acoustic shorts!
Here's one for DarkPrime25, this is 'To the Gateway' (Gateway Galaxy) from Super Mario Galaxy.
I should really get around to a SMG song sometime this year..
Loops. Enjoy!
2017-01-04 00:15:13 +0000 UTC View PostIt may not have won the Halloween poll, but Wicked Child is here... in acoustic form! This one's for Chris Bonner.
Don't let the length fool you: I looped this one in the proper spot a few times and ended it. The original has a sort of long intro that I didn't really want to leave out that doesn't get looped with the rest of the song.
That's all for today, I'll have more for you tomorrow. ...
2017-01-02 19:39:44 +0000 UTC View PostHere's the second acoustic short for today, this one's for TheHarDeOne, it's the Match 1 theme from the NES game Nintendo World Cup.
Loopable!
Enjoy!
2017 is here so let's start off with some acoustic shorts!
I'm still a little bit behind on a few people, and I can't thank you enough for your patience. I plan to get caught up this week by doing 2-3 shorts every day.
For starters, here's one for Avarik, this is X Hunter (or Counter Hunter) Stage 1 and 2 from Mega Man X2. This one also happened to be in the SNES Medley!
Also this on...
2017-01-02 19:30:53 +0000 UTC View PostGood afternoon Patrons!
So, as you can tell, I'm unfortunately not going to be able to get Star Dream up before the year is over. The Sonic medley took me a lot longer to finish than I had anticipated which only left me with a few days to work on Star Dream. I've managed to get some done on it, but definitely not enough to get it up tomorrow. xD
That said, Star Dre...

The video is finally here!
Man, so this one took me FOREVER to do. Even though it's only been 12 days since the last video, I literally spent 8-10 hours a day on this for the past week and a half or so. I also had family visiting last weekend that held me up a little bit but I was expecting that.
It took me so long, I posted the early download like what, 3 days ago? Haha.
So at this ...

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays everybody!
Since today is Christmas and all, I decided to make today's early download available for all Patrons. Hohoho!
So I originally intended for only 12 songs to be in this medley, then that managed to move it's way up to 15, and finally ended up at 16. I threw in one more Sonic 1 song (Marble Zone) to even out the song amount for the trilogy titles ...
2016-12-25 22:14:52 +0000 UTC View PostHere's the final preview: Hydrocity Zone Act 2 from Sonic 3 (and Knuckles).
Hydrocity Zone was, surprisingly, the 3rd most requested song overall with 16 votes (which is around the area where entry counts started getting close). I went with Act 2 for the medley since most of the votes were for it.
I swear it's taking me like an hour per song just to get these keyboards/synths in...
2016-12-24 06:21:41 +0000 UTC View Post:o Here's another SFM2 Preview for you! Chemical Plant Zone was the second most requested for the medley with 27 entries (the most entered was Stardust Speedway Bad Future JP with 35), and starts off the Sonic 2 portion of the medley.
One more preview coming in a bit... enjoy! :)
Preview time at last!
After several grueling days of working on this medley, I'm almost done with the first draft. I was hoping to get this up on Saturday but it's taking me a bit longer than I anticipated, so hopefully I'll be able to get it up on Christmas or the day after at the latest.
Here's a preview of the first song of the medley, Green Hill Zone. This is like, the third time I've ...

This was the latest Patreon Request List drawing winner for Alfonzo Frejoles. Revenge of the Enemy is the theme that plays during the first half of the Masked Dedede and Dark Meta Knight battles in Triple Deluxe.
Because of this, I thought it'd be a cool idea to incoporate the Masked Dedede and Dark Meta Kn...

Don't let the laid-backness of this first run through fool you, it get's more intense later on.
I'm actually just about finished with the song and looking to have it up Saturday. Maybe even Friday if we're lucky!
Enjoy!

Here's a quick acoustic short for you. This one's for Hornlitz, it's the Hyrule Field Theme (or just Main Theme) from Twilight Princess.
Just a normal short here, no looping as the original was a little bit too long.
