Gangplank Galleon (SSBU Version) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2026-09-23 | Gangplank Galleon (SSBU Version) - Orchestral Arrangement
Spore Spawn / Botwoon Mini Boss Battle (Super Metroid) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2023-10-21 | Getting back on the Metroid train! I like doing spookier tracks for October because of Halloween, so I tried to make a cover of this track that's more ominous.
Sada/Turo Battle (Pokemon Scarlet/Violet) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2023-09-27 | Scarlet/Violet's ending sequence is the best that Pokemon has ever had imo. I love the music of the final boss, so here's this!
Avaks Dynamo (Bionicle Heroes) - Orchestral Rock Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2023-08-30 | Fun fact: Avak was the last brown Bionicle set because they didn't sell wellBionicle Heroes has a pretty darn good soundtrack for being a licensed game. I didn't get this out early enough for 810NICLE Day because *life*, but I'm glad that I got it out before the end of the month.
Amorbis Battle (Metroid Prime 2) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2023-07-19 | There have been a few requests for this one, so I finally got around to making it! I worked on and off on it for a while - it was admittedly frustrating to make at first. The song has quite a few weird chords and everything had to be transcribed by ear since no one has made sheet music or a MIDI for it as far as I'm aware. It's definitely not the best thing I've ever made but I'm happy with how it turned out!
Menu Theme (Metroid Prime 2) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2023-06-30 | Here's the menu theme from Metroid Prime 2! I wanted to experiment with the actual choir instruments used in the Prime games. I think it turned out alright and isn't too out of place - I tried using more realistic choirs at first but I wasn't able to get the bombastic feeling that the original has.
Title Theme (Metroid: Zero Mission) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2023-05-26 | Here's Zero Mission/Metroid's main theme! I've been busy this month between family obligations and Tears of the Kingdom and will continue to be busy due to a vacation for MomoCon, so I did this cover since it was relatively simple.Also, people have been requesting an Amorbis cover so know that it is in the works! I don't know if it'll be up next because it's a harder song to transcribe and it's ultimately up to when the creative juices decide to flow, but I'll finish it eventually.
Chykka Adult Battle (Metroid Prime 2) - Orchestral Rock Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2023-04-27 | This was relatively easy to make since I had already done the Larva battle! I tried replacing the synth drone instrument with an electric guitar and since tempo was faster with a decent amount of percussion, I figured I'd make it a bit more on the rock side.
Magmoor Caverns (Metroid Prime) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2023-03-31 | Here's my cover of Magmoor Caverns! I didn't really have a good choir instrument for the main melody, so I used some trumpets among other things - I did try using the original Prime choir, but I thought it stood out a bit and sounded too much like the original.
Title Theme (Metroid Prime) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2023-02-25 | SO METROID PRIME REMASTERED HAPPENED. I wanted to get this cover out to celebrate its release! I've already done a 100% run and will have to do Hard Mode at some point in the future.This was a little tricky to make in terms of thinking of suitable instruments - I ended up using a glass harmonica for some of the synth sounds and violin scratching/plucking for the Phazon effects. I also used a theramin because it was the best thing to keep the feel of the original song with the high-pitched glissando (slidy/bendy) parts.Enjoy!
Prologue / Theme of Samus (Super Metroid) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2023-01-31 | “The last Metroid is in captivity. The galaxy is at peace...”I've been busy and wanted to make sure I was able to get some music out this month, so I chose a shorter song - this heroic theme!
Phendrana Drifts (Metroid Prime) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2022-12-10 | It's about time that I did a cover of this and thought that December would be the time to do it! I cheated a little by using a synth instrument in the orchestra, but I think that it works ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Serris / Yakuza Battle (Metroid Fusion) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2022-11-13 | Fusion's soundtrack does a great job of conveying a sense of isolation and horror... except for this track, which is a total banger.
Lavender Town (Pokemon) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2022-11-01 | Happy Halloween! Scarlet/Violet is right around the corner and I am HYPED
Hive Mecha / Incinerator Drone Battle (Metroid Prime) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2022-09-30 | This theme goes pretty hard for a totem that spits out bugs and a dinky robot with a couple of flamethrowers
Title Theme (Metroid Prime 2) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2022-08-24 | Another cover finished from the Prime series! I tried to do it justice - as with a lot of the music from the Prime series, some stuff can be difficult to translate from synth to orchestra.
Deku Palace (The Legend of Zelda: Majoras Mask) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2022-08-01 | I wanted to get something out by the end of the month, so here's a cover of this catchy theme!Normally I just loop the song a couple times (if it loops), but this one was short enough that I decided to layer on instruments for each repeat.
Menu/Credits Theme (Metroid Prime) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2022-06-28 | I was hoping that we would have a Nintendo Direct soon that announced the rumored Metroid Prime remaster, but oh well. At least the Direct Mini today had some good stuff in it (I am HYPED for Sunbreak and Persona 5 on the Switch is pretty awesome).Anyways, here's my version of the Metroid Prime credits theme! The menu theme is just a shortened loop of the credits theme, but of course I have to do the longer one.
Chykka Larva Battle (Metroid Prime 2) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2022-05-23 | (Artwork from Rundash on metroid-database)Yet another cover of a Metroid boss theme - this time, the weird bug-whale-thing!
Spark Mandrill (Mega Man X) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2022-04-30 | I wanted to get something out by the end of the month so I threw this together quickly over a couple of days! I also wanted to have some saxophones in the latter half of the song but good (and cheap) sax sounds are hard to find.Anyways: man, this game's soundtrack slaps
Fountain of Dreams / Vs. Dedede (Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2022-03-09 | My version of the battle against the penguin trying to clobbah dat dere Kirbeh! The Smash Bros performance will always be the best, but I still wanted to give it a go.
Upper Brinstar / Green Jungle Overgrowth (Super Metroid) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2022-02-16 | Super Metroid music slaps! Finally got around to doing a cover of one of my favorite level themes from the series.
Parasite Queen Battle (Metroid Prime) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2022-01-20 | It's been a hot minute since I've uploaded something since I was with family for the holidays. Here's a cover of the theme of one of my favorite first boss battles!
Cynthia Battle (Pokemon DPPt) - Orchestral Rock Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2021-11-14 | BDSP is releasing in less than a week, so here's this to celebrate! I am once again ready for Cynthia to kick my ass
Mt. Pyre Interior/Shoal Cave/New Mauville (Pokemon RSE) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2021-10-31 | Happy Halloween! I wanted to get something spooky-ish out for the holiday so here's this.
Emperor Ing Battle (Metroid Prime 2) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2021-10-06 | Had some people asking for the first phase Emperor Ing theme after I did my second phase remix, so here it is!This was one of the more difficult recreations I've done but I think it paid off. I couldn't find a MIDI or sheet music for it so everything had to be done by ear.
Lower Brinstar / Red Soil (Super Metroid) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2021-09-05 | Just another song that shows off how atmospheric Metroid music can be - peaceful yet mysterious.
Arrival (Halo 4) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2021-08-13 | I've always loved this song and wanted to do my own version of it and maybe introduce some people to it. Even though the original is also orchestral, it was fun and a good learning experience to reverse engineer it (I really wanted to get the drums right and I think I got close!). This is based on the Midnight (campaign) version that has a slightly different middle section and a different, more heroic ending that I prefer to the other ending that just fades out.I know some people are divided on Halo 4, but I very much enjoyed it. The story was great: it allowed us to see the more human side of Master Chief, the Didact was a truly menacing villain, and Cortana's death was tragic. Of course, the subsequent comics and Halo 5 completely ruined all of this, but still.Original song by Neil Davidge (who did a kickass job overall for the Halo 4 soundtrack)
Brinstar (Metroid: Zero Mission) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2021-07-25 | I know there are several orchestral versions of Brinstar floating around, but I'm still happy with how it turned out and the energy I put into it (and with all of the Metroid covers I do, how could I not make it eventually?)Also I probably could've just labeled this as the NES version but the ZM version has four extra measures so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Among Us Drip (Among Us / Leonz) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2021-07-14 | a remix of a remix? kinda susoriginal by Leonz - thank you for the glorious memewilhelm scream by wilhelm (citation needed)
Bazelgeuse, the Invading Tyrant (Monster Hunter) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2021-06-12 | I tried mixing the World and Rise versions of the Bazelgeuse theme while adding my own flair to it! Both versions are incredible and are honestly pretty perfect, but this was still fun to make.apologies for potentially triggering any memories of getting divebombed by this thing
Beach Chant (Bionicle: MNOLG) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2021-06-04 | Lot of nostalgia in making this one - funny how some point-and-click Flash game from years ago can have such an impact. I know it's a short loop and not particularly complex, but I love how ambient the original is and how it captures the mysticism of the early years of Bionicle (for a story made for a bunch of plastic robots, the lore is surprisingly deep).Original by Justin Luchter of Templar Studios - thanks for your work!
Showdown at the Tower (Donkey Kong (Gameboy)) - Orchestral Rock Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2021-05-29 | a gameboy song has no business being this much of a bop
Kraids Lair (Metroid: Zero Mission) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2021-05-22 | a.k.a. the waltz of the fat dragon
Meta Ridley Battle (Metroid Prime) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2021-05-05 | I tried the best that I could to translate this into an orchestra - unfortunately the original just has a bunch of synth sound effects that don't really sound like any real instrument. Still happy with how it turned out, though!Also it's kind of funny that as much covers as I've done of Metroid music, this is the only one from Prime 1 so far - I'll be fixing that.Original by Kenji Yamamoto (praise be unto him)
Never Forget (Halo 3) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2021-04-29 | Original by Martin O'Donnell (absolute legend)I honestly think the original version is perfect as-is, but I wanted to do a cover to practice dynamics and to pay tribute to one of the games that sparked my love for video game music.Also as of writing this, I'm just shy of 1k subscribers, so that's neat! I'm glad you all enjoy my music enough to stick around for more.
Dr. Wilys Castle (Mega Man 2) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2021-03-06 | I played this game once and I was terrible at it
Nightmare Battle (Metroid Fusion) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2021-01-31 | Making this song was a NIGHTMARE haha not really it's so short
Marnie Battle (Pokemon: Sword & Shield) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2021-01-12 | marnie is a bean
Mutated Emperor Ing Battle (Metroid Prime 2) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2020-10-08 | (Artwork attributed to Rundash via metroid-database)Theremins are orchestral, right?Trying out a new percussion library (Damage 2) - sounds pretty good, although I may have made some parts of this a bit too bombastic. It's at least good for filling out the gaps where Metroid music would normally have random synth sounds.
Gangplank Galleon (SSBU Version) - Bardcore / Medieval Cover Wingus Dingus 2020-08-17 | apparently people are making medieval covers of music so my contribution is this dumb crap
Delfino Plaza (Super Mario Sunshine) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2020-08-06 | I couldn't find a decent picture of Mario riding Yoshi from Sunshine for the thumbnail so instead have a nice Pianta holding a fine fruit
Industrial Park (SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2020-07-09 | ...
Dark Samus Battle (Metroid Prime 3) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2020-05-23 | Whamus Bamus it's Dark Samus
Blooming Villain (Persona 5) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2020-04-28 | woah joker you're looking cool
Chairman Rose Battle (Pokemon Sword and Shield) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2020-03-16 | dark souls is leaking into pokemon music
Multiplayer Theme - Hunters (Metroid Prime 2) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2020-02-08 | the multiplayer sucked but the music didn't
Ko-Wahi (Bionicle: The Game - GBA) - Orchestral Arrangement Wingus Dingus 2019-12-07 | #bringbackbonkle
