Our live cover of "Clock Tower Stage" from Marvel vs. Capcom 2, originally composed by Tetsuya Shibata. This arrangement by Patrick Bartley. Recorded live at Black Cat LES in New York, NY on December 1, 2019.

"COOL DECISION" for clicking on this video! - Aight, I'mma be real with you: this soundtrack is probably my (Pat) favorite fighting game OST of all time, and the fact that we actually played this track got me super emotional. I got goosebumps just editing the audio afterwards! We actually saw this one requested a lot from us (or anything from MvC2), and it made us so happy to know that people would get what they wanted, once we uploaded it. This track was so special, we had to put in the original "solo" lines from the different sections of the song just to do justice and give tribute to Tetsuya-san, one of the GOATs in jazz VGM writing. Of course, we extended this one out to work as a standard tune so we could "TAKE YOU FOR A RIIIIDE", and you'll hear some great solos throughout - "JUST AS YOU EXPECTED."

Who was YOUR favorite team to use in MvC2? Of course it had Amingo, right? ... RIGHT? *boing boing*
