For this month, I picked a somewhat obscure track that I heard via Nintendo Switch Online. Was just trying out NES games, picked Vs. Excitebike and it had some very catchy jingles in it. Very different from the regular version of the game. This version was released in arcades and later ported to the Famicom Disk System, basically the Japanese NES with a fancy accessory. I went for a big band-style arrangement, as it's something I have never tried before, but I added some other sounds too... hope you enjoy! The visualizer program is called MIDITrail.

I dont think Ive ever seen this specific type of interaction in an open-world game. Usually, important NPCs are invincible and will either dodge your car, have static collision (like hitting a wall) or just teleport out of the way. But in this game, they get magically pulled back to their origin in a way that can fling your car. Not that interesting, but Im cleaning up some old gameplay clips and figured Id upload this.")

Another PM submission. This is the second Sonic track Ive done, hope you guys enjoy.
I first played this on the Gamecube via Gems collection and was blown away by the OST, and then I found out that wasnt even the original version. I prefer JP, but both are pretty good and I see SEGAs rationale at the time. So I included elements from the US version in this cover.")
