The music that plays for the battle with Zeromus, one of the best final bosses in any RPG (only in my opinion, of course).

This piece was one time-consuming son of a bitch. So many instruments and their octaves went into this one that even preparing the soundset itself was a challenge. While I said that my last video probably took me the shortest amount of time to put together, this one was right up there with the longest. I like the results, though.

Because there's so many instruments flying by in this one, I thought a key might help. Some might be obvious, others not so much. The list includes:

Mushroom--Bass drum
Boat--Cymbals and snare drum
Ghost--Bass
Heart-- High bass
Yoshi--Low trumpet
Fire Flower--High trumpet
Plane--Low strings
Shyguy--Middle strings
Piranha Plant--High strings
Face--Low organ
Coin--Middle organ
Car--High organ

Again, I know the tempo is a little slow thanks to a timing gap in the MPC program and there's nothing I can do about it, so deal with it. :p

Enjoy!
