Surface of SR-388 [Main theme] (Arranged) - Metroid II: Return of Samus Gencoil 2011-08-08 | Here's another Metroid cover, but this one's brand new! Don't have much to say about it really, I just thought the song had a good melody and wanted to have a go at it. Remember to give a thumbs up if you like it!

Waiting for Romero to Play (Arranged) - Doom II: Hell on Earth Gencoil 2023-11-27 | From maps 18 and 27 of Doom II. Took it in a more electronic direction with some middle eastern influences.

Sign of Evil (Arranged) - Doom Gencoil 2023-10-17 | From maps E1M8 and E3M4 of Doom. The choir you're hearing is a mix of Mellotron plugin and my own voice. Enjoy!Originally composed by Bobby PrinceArranged by Tobias Franzén
Running from Evil (Arranged) - Doom II: Hell on Earth Gencoil 2023-08-24 | From maps 1 and 15 of Doom II. Kind of reminiscent of "At Doom's Gate" from the first game but more atmospheric.Originally composed by Bobby PrinceArranged by Tobias Franzén
The Dave D. Taylor Blues (Arranged) - Doom II: Hell on Earth Gencoil 2023-07-16 | From maps 8, 14 and 22 of Doom II.

Hiding the Secrets (Arranged) - Doom Gencoil 2023-06-06 | This might be the most guitar-heavy arrangement I've ever done, and that's a pretty big deal because the guitar is not my strongest suit.Originally composed by Bobby PrinceArranged by Tobias Franzén--------------------------------------------------------------------Check out my other music on Bandcamp:soltype.bandcamp.comcvel.bandcamp.com

Donna to the Rescue (Arranged) - Doom Gencoil 2023-03-23 | I went industrial with this song, which I guess is sort of fitting considering when this game was released. Who the heck is Donna? Well, apparently the title refers to Donna Jackson, who was the office manager of id Software at the time. This song plays on "Slough of Despair", the second level of Doom's third episode, "Inferno".Originally composed by Bobby PrinceArranged by Tobias Franzén--------------------------------------------------------------------Check out my other music on Bandcamp:soltype.bandcamp.comcvel.bandcamp.com
Into Sandys City (Arranged) - Doom II: Hell on Earth Gencoil 2023-02-26 | This one's a bit special, it marks the first time I've covered a song from a PC game and one made by a western composer. This song plays on map 9, "The Pit". Really pleased with how the guitar parts turned out!Originally composed by Bobby PrinceArranged by Tobias Franzén--------------------------------------------------------------------Check out my other music on Bandcamp:soltype.bandcamp.comcvel.bandcamp.com
Go For The Score [Mega Man 10 - Fireball Strike (Strike Man)] Gencoil 2022-03-13 | Everything is coming full circle, isn't it? This was the very first song I covered from the Mega Man 10 soundtrack. But I always felt that this one paled in comparison to the rest of the covers, the production just didn't have the right instrumentation and lacked energy. So here is the new, definitive version!

Endless Struggle (Endless Mode) - Mega Man 10 Gencoil 2022-01-07 | I don't usually go for this sort of dance music style but it turned out to be pretty fun, it's got that classic 90's techno sound going on.Originally composed by IIIArranged by Tobias Franzén--------------------------------------------------------------------Check out my other music on Bandcamp:soltype.bandcamp.com
Title screen & Stage select + start - Mega Man 10 Gencoil 2021-12-24 | "Mega Man 10: Reimagined" is the new title of the project formerly known as "The Unofficial Mega Man 10 Arrange Soundtrack".

Sector 1 [SRX] (Arranged) - Metroid Fusion Gencoil 2021-11-24 | I played Metroid Dread recently and it made me want to go and do another cover from the Metroid series.

Soltype - Fuji (NEW SINGLE) Gencoil 2021-10-27 | Free streaming and purchase:soltype.bandcamp.com/album/fuji-singleIncludes an additional new track and two remixes.More releases available here:soltype.bandcamp.com‐---------------------------------------------------I enjoyed working on the two remixes on this single. "Road Spirit", which was a brief interlude track on the album is given new life with an extended version that's a bit faster and more energetic. "Fuji (Night Eruption Mix)" takes the song in a darker place with aggressive beats and added guitar parts.‐---------------------------------------------------Released 2021-10-27Composed by Tobias Franzén

Headquarters [Stage 3] (Arranged) - Journey to Silius Gencoil 2020-12-27 | Last one for 2020, and this is something I've been working on for quite a while. I went totally 80's with this cover, even going as far as emulating the iconic tubular bells of the Yamaha DX7. There's also a bit of old-school Depeche Mode in there with samples of metal objects being struck to get that clanky robot feeling.Originally composed by Naoki KodakaArranged by Tobias Franzén--------------------------------------------------------------------Check out my other music on Bandcamp:soltype.bandcamp.com

Searching for Friends (Arranged) - Final Fantasy VI Gencoil 2020-10-04 | Oh boy, this was a tough one. When you're covering Final Fantasy you want to make sure you get it right. I wanted to try doing something from an RPG for a change, which allowed me to make more use of orchestral instruments.Originally composed by Nobuo UematsuArranged by Tobias Franzén--------------------------------------------------------------------Check out my other music on Bandcamp:soltype.bandcamp.com
Theme of Seven Force (Arranged) - Gunstar Heroes Gencoil 2020-09-05 | You asked for it and here it is!

Cold Man (Arranged) - Mega Man & Bass / Rockman & Forte Gencoil 2020-08-15 | One of my favorite songs from this somewhat hidden gem which even Capcom themselves tend to overlook.

!!!...Shade... (Arranged) - Alien Soldier Gencoil 2020-06-15 | Such an odd little tune that starts out chill then just goes bonkers... and then chill again.

Kingdom of Devotindos (Arranged) - Rocket Knight Adventures Gencoil 2020-03-08 | Ugh, that was hard work :) This song has a lot of layers and little details that are hard to nail but I feel like I pulled off a pretty good re-interpretation.Composed by Konami Kukeiha ClubArranged by Tobias Franzén--------------------------------------------------------------------Check out my other music on Bandcamp:soltype.bandcamp.com

Hebe in the Sky (Arranged) - Hebereke/Ufouria: The Saga Gencoil 2020-02-09 | I can't claim to be a huge fan of this quirky little series but I do enjoy some of the music from the first game and didn't see a whole lot of covers out there.Composed by Naoki KodakaArranged by Tobias Franzén
Main Theme [Rapadanga City] (Arranged) - Monster World IV Gencoil 2020-01-26 | The original song is a bit short so I wanted to expand upon it and give it a grander, slightly orchestral feeling. What do you think? :)Composed by Jin WatanabeArranged by Tobias Franzén--------------------------------------------------------------------Check out my other music on Bandcamp:soltype.bandcamp.com
The Sky Line [Air Raid] (Arranged) - Thunder Force IV / Lightening Force Gencoil 2020-01-05 | A personal favorite of mine from this amazing soundtrack. Most people tend to prefer the songs that lean toward metal but I think these smooth, prog-rock tracks deserve some love too.Originally composed by Takeshi Yoshida & Toshiharu YamanishiArranged by Tobias FranzénCheck out my other music on Bandcamp:soltype.bandcamp.com
Immigration Ship L-229 (Arranged) - Blaster Master Zero 2 Gencoil 2019-12-01 | I thought I'd give this highly underrated track the cover treatment it deserves. If you haven't listened to the Blaster Master Zero 2 soundtrack then by all means do, it has some really nice songs and overall feels like an improvement over the previous game.Check out my other music on Bandcamp:soltype.bandcamp.com
Galaxy Desert (Arranged) - Alien Soldier Gencoil 2019-10-09 | Another Alien Soldier track that plays a bit later in the game in an epic assault on Z-Leo's base. Really gets you pumped after defeating uh... Five Force? That don't sound right. Anyway, enjoy!Check out my other music on Bandcamp:soltype.bandcamp.com
The Foggy Cave In The Darkness (Arranged) - Contra: Hard Corps Gencoil 2019-06-09 | This is one I've been wanting to do for a long time and with the Contra Anniversary Collection out now, what better time to do it, right?Check out my other music on Bandcamp:soltype.bandcamp.com
Next Level (Arranged) - Blaster Master Zero Gencoil 2019-05-11 | A slightly synthwave-y arrangement of the second dungeon theme from Inti Creates' excellent reboot of the Blaster Master series.Originally composed by Hiroaki SanoArranged by Tobias FranzénCheck out my other music on Bandcamp:soltype.bandcamp.com
Top Man (Arranged) - Mega Man 3 Gencoil 2019-02-28 | I know a lot of you have been asking for more Mega Man, so here's a rockin' rendition of Top Man's stage theme!Check out my other music on Bandcamp:soltype.bandcamp.com
Soltype (Arranged) - Alien Soldier Gencoil 2019-02-10 | A very tense and atmospheric track from Norio Hanzawa, a man who could truly make the Mega Drive sing.Check out my other music on Bandcamp:soltype.bandcamp.com
Good Weather (Arranged) - Gimmick! Gencoil 2019-02-01 | One of the best soundtracks of Nintendo's 8-bit machine deserves a proper treatment. It's hard trying to nail that trademark Sunsoft sound but I think I pulled it off fairly well without straight up ripping it off.Check out my other music on Bandcamp:soltype.bandcamp.com
Feel Pleasure To The Death (Arranged) - Gofer no Yabō Episode II/Nemesis 3 Gencoil 2019-01-13 | Yeah, about that title... that's what the official soundtrack calls it, in all its engrish glory :) This is the song that plays in Stage 2.For those of you who don't know, Gofer no Yabō: Episode II is sequel to the arcade game Gradius II: Gofer no Yabō (or Vulcan Venture, as it's known as outside of Japan), made exclusively for MSX. Thanks to a plot involving time travel it takes place in two different parts of the Gradius timeline.Check out my other music on Bandcamp:soltype.bandcamp.com
Ice Scream [Planet Freon / Round 5-2] (Arranged) - Ristar Gencoil 2019-01-02 | Guess who's back? :)So after a very long hiatus I finally feel like I have the proper setup to have a go at this music stuff again. This is a song I've been wanting to do for quite a while. Ristar's soundtrack is amazing, from both a technical and musical standpoint.Listen to the updated version here: youtube.com/watch?v=4Bk2k6zGfKcOriginally composed by Tomoko SasakiArranged by Tobias FranzénCheck out my other music on Bandcamp:soltype.bandcamp.com
Riding The Waves - Wave Man (Arranged) - Mega Man 5 Gencoil 2012-08-13 | I'm truly sorry for not uploading songs more often. My old computer still hasn't been fixed so in the meantime I decided to upload another oldie from 2003. Some of the orchestra hits are a bit off but it's still a pretty nice, simple rendition.Please try not to be too harsh :)
Memories of Times Past - Robot Museum (Arranged) - Mega Man & Bass Gencoil 2011-08-29 | This one was made last year but I never bothered to upload it to YouTube. So in case you haven't visited my site, here it is :)MP3 download:http://www.klustr.net/arrangedmusic/files/E-Tank_-_Memories_of_Times_Past_(Mega_Man_&_Bass).mp3
Underground Flora - Upper Brinstar (Arranged) - Super Metroid Gencoil 2011-08-21 | Gotta give Samus a proper 25th anniversary celebration! Here's the third and last Metroid cover, the track that plays when entering Brinstar. I noticed that microKORG has a sound very similar to one found in the Metroid Prime soundtrack, and this track was just begging me to use it somewhere. Can you guess which one I'm talking about? :) MP3 download: http://www.klustr.net/arrangedmusic/files/E-Tank_-_Underground_Flora_(Super_Metroid).mp3
Kraids Lair (Arranged) - Metroid Gencoil 2011-07-25 | This is a really really old one that I made back in 2003. It's very simple and straightforward, but I kind of like it.
Space Odyssey (Gradius II: GOFERの野望 Medley) Gencoil 2011-07-20 | Oh god, it's done. After months of work, it's done. So here it is, my epic (over 10 minutes long) medley that covers nearly half of the Gradius II (also known as Vulcan Venture) soundtrack. The music of the Gradius series has always been nothing short of amazing, so I hope I did the songs justice. Originally, I was going to add some announcer vocals shouting "Shoot it in the head!", "You need some practice!" and so on, but it ended up sounding corny so I scrapped that idea :P Tracklist:00:00 - Intro00:44 - Equipment01:22 - Tabidachi02:16 - Burning Heat03:43 - Take Care04:25 - A Shooting Star05:40 - Synthetic Life07:15 - Crystal World08:50 - A Way Out Of The Difficulty10:01 - Game OverDownload MP3 here: http://www.klustr.net/arrangedmusic/files/E-Tank_-_Space_Odyssey_(Gradius_II_Megamix).mp3
A Brighter Tomorrow (Mega Man 10 - Staff Roll/Ending) Gencoil 2011-03-14 | Oh man, has it really been 6 months since I last uploaded a song? Well, it took a longer time than expected, but here it is! Putting this together wasn't easy, it's probably the most complex piece I've done so far.MP3 download:http://www.klustr.net/arrangedmusic/files/E-Tank_-_A_Brighter_Tomorrow.mp3Check out my other music on Bandcamp:soltype.bandcamp.com
