Hello everybody,
thanks for sticking with this channel, even though I struggle to release stuff on a regular basis.
I want to cover so much, but time. I am working on a special project with original musci as well, but I won't neglect the usual Megaman tracks, as well as other series, I already dove into in the past.

Today however I present you my interpretation of the 2nd and 9th stage theme from the game
"The King of Dragons" ,titled "Hard Long" or "Treasure in an Old Castle" if you go by the stage name.
The soundtrack is full of incredible tracks,
all composed by the great "Yoko Shimomura",
whom I admire for all her works in the video game industry.
As the game came out in 1991 just as Street Fighter II, it's audible Ms. Shimomrua worked
on both games at the same time, one can hear similarities.
I discovered this game through emulation in the 2000's, but I have it in my collection via Steam,
I replayed it casually over the years. A fun game.

This time I tried to focus less on the metal aspect and tried to steer more towards a
early 90's Arranged CD feel, like Y's and Alpha Lyla. I'll release some more this year,
so you guys won't have to wait until Christmas.
I hope you enjoy!!!
And thanks for all the positive support over the years.
Only few people will know the tracks I cover sometimes, but I like doing them. And maybe
I can introduce some people to those soundtracks.
