One of my good pals showed it to me yesterday; appearantly, this guy took his guitar and a high end synth, and remixed almost every song (he still has a few to go) from the Original Metroid on NES into ‘metal.’ Most of the remixes are really good. Even though I don’t believe that all of them should be remixed in the exact same genre, they’re really nicely done, and I am thoroughly impressed. Hell, I don’t like metal. I don’t like Metroid. But I like this stuff Y’all should give it a listen.
Certainly impressive I’ll give it that. I’ve never heard Samus Aran’s own music so rocked out…though unfortunately I don’t think I’ll ever rock out to it.
You know Sin, dissonance IS done on purpose sometimes Especially in that particular genre.
And I dunno, I really think the minibosses are…well, ok. They don’t have a very amazing drummer, and that makes the entire band sound mediocre I think. Minibosses are nice, but overrated I think.
I just figured this would be a great place to mention the “should be known by now” www.ocremix.com
awesome music there, check out Ailseans Metaltroid , its pretty similar to the stuff by stemage. I mainly love the super metroid songs “4 little metroids” and “Zebesian Midnight”
likewise, i have over 800 OCremix mp3’s on my HD at the moment, so i’ll just stop listing good songs at the best of the metroid ones, (in my opinion, of course)
Y’all should give it a listen.
