It's been a while, but here's Caravan! This one took a long time to do, because I couldn't find any MIDI files to base it on. I had to make one from scratch and then NESify it.
I adhered to the NES limit of 4 maximum simultaneous sounds (technically it's 5, but I use two combined for the kick drum as did most NES composers), which means that in order to accurately represent the chords, I had to arpeggiate some parts and harmonise with the bass in others.
Oh, and yes, I made the image by tracing over the original album cover and by applying what I could discover about NES colour palettes.
Want the MP3? Send me a message and I'll send it to you. Alternatively, just rip the audio off here.
