So add me please!
For your listening pleasure, I present a selection of twelve tracks culled from what I've found so far in the genre of video game cover music. I haven't included any here, but I'd also recommend these metal renditions of Metroid music if that sounds like the kind of thing you might be into. Click the Kirby to save the song as MP3:
<(^o^)> // Low-Tech Son - Fever [Dr. Mario]
<(^o^)> // Temp Sound Solutions - Hudson's Adventure Island
<(^o^)> // The Advantage - Braveheart Level [Solar Jetman]
<(^o^)> // Wave Theory - Simon's Town [Castlevania 2] (LIVE @ MAGFest 2)
<(^o^)> // Temp Sound Solutions - Bio Senchi DAN + Friday the 13th (LIVE @ MAGFest 3) These MAGFest 3 tracks are a bit quiet and mono, sorry but it's the best I had to deal with. Can't find the official recordings from this show.
<(^o^)> // NESkimos - Zelda Dungeon (LIVE @ MAGFest 3) A really nice jam on Legend of Zelda dungeon music.
<(^o^)> // Smash Brothers - Zelda 2 (LIVE @ MAGFest 3) Anyone who didn't like Zelda 2— you're just wrong.
<(^o^)> // Minibosses - Mike Tyson's Punch-Out! Medley
<(^o^)> // Fumapero - Super Mario Bros. Thank you, Japanese person whose name I will never know. This is amazing.
<(^o^)> // The Advantage - The Moon [Duck Tales]
<(^o^)> // CAst - Mother Earth [Mother]
<(^o^)> // virt - Crystal Flash [Super Metroid] A 22 minute medley of all but one song in the game
For more info on these and other acts, I'll provide a slew of links here:
Want to grab live recordings from MAGFest 2 and 3? Follow this link.Japanese Cover Bands thread on VGMix // My source for Low-Tech Son, CAst, Fumapero and others.
The Advantage // The worst web page ever. I hope the future spread of MySpace profile design to seperate websites is kept to a minimum.
Minibosses // The first act I knew of to do this thing, also check out all the YouTube footage.
Temp Sound Solutions // A great one man (?) act with what has to be the widest range of songs. Check out the Now You're Playing With Powar! series on the Music page to see the list, rich with typos.
virt // virt's page with a big pile of music he's made. He also seems to have launched a demo reel/business site, so if you're looking to hire someone with talent you could do a lot worse!
NESkimos // Songs up on a Soundclick page, and also a messageboard.
MAGFest // On the East Coast? Want to see a bunch of these acts perform live? Here's your best bet.
bit shifter // Music programmed and performed on Game Boys? Original compositions, at that? You bet!
