So here's something new: my first cover of a song that isn't from a video game! I've known about this original from MovieMovies1 for at least a year now, so when i saw he made a MIDI available of the GXSCC version, i got to work on my own cover. While my cover is still based on the original YM2608 version (linked below), i used the GXSCC version as a template for my sound design. It's kind of like a "console-accurate" recreation of the GXSCC version, ...save for the fact i used two expansion chips. Gotta love that FDS bass though/

So this one was quite the bitch to get right. The entire second part of the song is really wacky when you split it up. Parts often jump octaves and go higher and lower than others, and its just overall a pain of a song. But it sounds nice, so i did this.

Yet another amazing song from Harmony of Dissonance, and one ive attempted to cover around 5 times, with this being the only successful attempt. If anyone was to ever plays this live, the drummer would have a hell of a time.

This ones pretty short; only took around two and a half hours to finish. Pretty much the same idea here as with Beginning and Prayer: take an already great VRC6 song and cover it in my own VRC6 style.

Ive wanted to cover this track for a while, but i always thought it sounded a bit empty...that is, until i found Teckworks MIDI version on VGMusic.com. It has a lot more going on and overall just sounds better. So i figured id translate his work into a FamiTracker project. The accompaniment on the VRC6 is entirely his work: i simply ported it into FamiTracker.

(I also did a VRC6 version which is a bit simpler. It can be found here: https://soundcloud.com/cs2612/first_time_on_koholint_vrc6)")

Well, this is unexpected, huh? Not this cover in particular really, but moreso the timing. This took about two hours in total to finish, not only cause the song is so simple, but because i pretty much didnt take any breaks while making it. Im really happy with how it turned out too, so i think its a win-win. If only i could keep to a schedule this consistent for more than a few covers.

That practice from the last video paid off, eh? I was worried i wasnt going to be able to do enough with some of MM2s tracks since a lot of them are quite simple and dont fill out the 8 channels i have to work with. After attempting to write my own harmony for the middle section and failing spectacularly, i turned to the backing track Sword-Bolt came up with in their MIDI and went with that (after doubling up the notes because why not). I think it turned out pretty well though!
If i want to go in alphabetical order, i could do Bubble Man next. Wily Stages 1-2s track could use an update though...
