This tribute album was made by cutting and pasting physical tapeloops from various Metroid soundtracks. I warped the loops and added subtle guitar and synthesizers bits. My goal was to create a new desolate sound in the Metroid universe, I hope you enjoy!

Going for a more liminal approach to the sound this time, trying to warp the melodies in many different ways. Used some backmasking, layering multiple distortion and the mighty mellotron pedal from EHX. Enjoy :)
-- moolenbroek.bandcamp.com --Momentary Peace / A Wish | Ambient Tape Loop Remix (Paladin’s Quest & Secret of Mana)glimlicht2026-08-29 | This one starts with a single tape loop from the beautiful track "Momentary Peace" from Paladin's Quest. It cascades into multiple analogue delays and morphs into the haunting "A Wish..." from Secret of Mana. So its basically a 26-minute track that consists of two tape loops.
This track comes from my 2022 release "Secret of Going Nowhere" on bandcamp. I finished the remaster of it and wanted to share it here.
moolenbroek.bandcamp.com/album/secret-of-going-nowhere --Mario Paint – BGM 3 | Ambient Tape Loop Remixglimlicht2026-08-29 | Mario Paints mysterious track "BGM 3" is in my opinion one of the coolest tracks that the SNES ever produced. For this mix I used the audio from another remix made by @jkallen11, put it on tape and rearranged the whole thing. I mixed this one live a few times, its a fun one., always different.

moolenbroek.bandcamp.com/album/secret-of-going-nowhere --Super Mario 64 – File Select | Ambient Tape Loop Remixglimlicht2026-08-21 | My Super Mario 64 project is slowly taking shape, I'm working with cassette loops, reel to reel loops and lapsteel guitar for this project. The cassette loops are sometimes a pain to work with but they sound very saturated and at times even noisy! Let me know what you think of this style. As always, everything was made with analogue methods :)
moolenbroek.bandcamp.comTorn Peaks - A Twin Peaks Fan-Album made with analogue tape loopsglimlicht2026-08-02 | Here it is, my Twin Peaks album made in the same style as the previous albums. Went for the title Torn Peaks because most of the tracks I made gave me some feeling of being torn.. A lot of the people of Twin Peaks are not with us anymore and it feels like i'm giving tribute to the memory of them. The space they occupied in our head. In special Mr. jackpots himself, David Lynch.

The original idea was to mash them together but that didn't feel right for both worlds. They both deserve the same attention. Hope you enjoy!

I recorded the OST from Link's Awakening (both Game Boy and Switch) on a tape reel and started making tape loops from it. The loops that resonated with me were saved in jars with ideas written on them. Every jar filled with tape loops got made into a song, I mixed them with analogue equipment and added effects, both physically on the tape and with guitar pedals.
I always play through the games while doing a project like this and that effects the decision for which songs to keep on the album. Also, I like to translate my experience of playing the game through sound. Link's Awakening is a very psychedelic and melancholic game and apparently it took inspiration from Twin Peaks, which is one of my favorite things ever.
On the other side of the tape reel I recorded the Twin Peaks OST and while doing this project I also made some songs for that. So that's coming soon as well..
Let me know what you think of this album and what kind of videogame soundtrack you think will fit this treatment. You can find this album also on bandcamp:

It will not be the only track on the album that will use this beautiful melody as it comes in many forms. Let me know what you think of this track!
-- moolenbroek.bandcamp.com --Tossing and Turning - Ambient Tape Loop Remix from Links Awakeningglimlicht2026-06-13 | The first few tracks from my Links Awakening tape loop project are recorded. This one is a taste of what is on the horizon. The sound is quite fun to work with, its way more chiptune-like then Oxides of Time. It all starts to feel more psychedelic and I think that fits the theme of the game very well. I am combining the original GameBoy OST with the Switch OST. The physical loops are scattered everywhere but it starts to make sense. Especially the dungeon themes are so beautiful while they are falling apart, stay tuned for more!
The artwork in this video is a collage of the same two screenshots across GameBoy versions of the game. The storm from the beginning and Link "Tossing and Turning" in his bed. Not sure if it will be the definitive artwork for the album.. Let me know what you guys think!
--- moolenbroek.bandcamp.com ---StarFox 64 select theme - Ambient Tape Loop Remixglimlicht2026-05-30 | Had some image in my mind of the Arwing getting lost into deep space. So I freestyled with some analogue tape loops made from both the n64 version and the upcoming Switch2 version of the "Select Theme". Made entirely with analogue techniques.

From those pieces I made tapeloops which I manipulated (both physically and through guitar pedals) and mixed into tracks. I was aiming for a heavy sound that sounds tired and bittersweet with a lot of decay and melancholia. Hope you enjoy and visit my bandcamp for more music!

This tribute album was made by cutting and pasting physical tapeloops from the Earthbound OST soundtrack. The loops are processed with analogue effects and recorded from old reel to reel players. I also combined some small guitar and keyboard bits in some tracks. Hope you enjoy this version of the Earthbound sound!
