Hey Patrons!
I have a preview post for you today (haven't had one of those in a while because of the May Madness preview stream, ey?) of our first (and only) brand new song for May, and recent GaMetal Discord Request Battle winner, The 13th Struggle from Kingdom Hearts.
Hoping to be finished with this one tonight, but if not, it'll be ready early tomorrow. Video either ...

Here's a new acoustic short for you (I know, it's been a while ð ) from the list of Kishoro, fulfilled for MarioManiac88, this is The Boy Who Had Wings from Ys III: Wanderers from Ys.
I'll be getting back to regular acoustic shorts next month once I'm finished with all of the May Madness material. Till then, enjoy! :)

Song #5 of the month has landed: here's Valestein Castle from Ys III: Wanderers from Ys!
To be a little bit different from the awesome Oath in Felghana version, I instead based this arrangement mostly off of the NES and PC Engine CD versions.
I'm anticipating the next videos will be ready on Tuesday and Thursday respectively. Till then, thank you all as always for your ongoing contribution and support, you all are the best! ð
Hey Patrons! I'm about to begin the Youtube News/Q&A session Live Stream! You can join us in chat here.

Hey Patrons! I have a few updates and reminders for you today.
The first public Q&A/News Live Stream of the year will be taking place on the channel tomorrow at 2:00 PM US Central Time.
The biggest thing to note during the news portion is that I will officially be opening up the 2022 GaMetal Song Ballot at the start of the stream. But since you all are awesome Patrons, you can get a head start on the ballot and enter your sub...
Song #4 of the month, and our first that isn't a remake of an old full GaMetal remix, Solar Man returns from the 2013 Mega Man Mega Medley for our a full version of Solar Inferno from Mega Man 10! This was one of the most popular requests from both public and Patreon remake voting.
I've always loved this song since I first covered it in that medley, in fact, learning it for that medley was the first time I had ever heard it.
We'll now have a short...

May Madness 2022 continues with a revisit to a true GaMetal classic: Hyrule Temple (aka Palace Theme) from Zelda II: The Adventure of Link!
This is like... the FOURTH time I've covered this song. ð
Out of all the remakes this year, I probably changed this one around the least. I've always been fond of the arrangement I came up with in 2010... just not so much the sound quality from back then (as well as the 2013 remake).
Three songs dow...

We've only scratched the surface of May Madness remakes this month, with the next one, Hyrule Temple, coming tomorrow.
That said, I'd like to give you a rough outline of the remaining song order. This could change slightly throughout the month, but it's likely to stay close if not exact:

GUH-HUH! The bear and the bird have returned for May Madness 2022 with the return of Rusty Bucket Bay from Banjo-Kazooie!
I first did this song back in 2014. I've kept the fast-paced feel of my old arrangement, and as usual made a few changes here and there, the biggest of which being scrapping and replacing the intro I did in the old version. (Didn't care for it, lol)
This one has barely missed the cut for May Madness the past couple o...

May Madness 2022 begins!
It was supposed to begin yesterday, but I was having some upload issues with Youtube, haha. Anyway, here's Cradle from Goldeneye 64! One of my favorite N64 songs, personally.
This time around, I bumped the key back up to the original, and made a few slight changes (mostly in the solo section).
The next video should be ready and up on Wednesday. Till then, thank you all as always for your ongoing contribution ...

The beginning of May Madness 2022 is upon us! Here's the first song up for the month: Cradle from Goldeneye 64.
One of my favorite Goldeneye 64 songs, and the first and only one I've done in full, back in 2014. Dam was in the Nintendo 64 Medley, but that one hasn't gotten the full treatment... yet.

Hey Patrons, here's your first update post for May 2022!
It's May Madness time, and I have a HUGE month planned for you! I've already revealed all of the upcoming remakes at the end of April, and have been working hard on getting every one of them ready for this month.

The latest video has arrived: Battle With the Four Fiends from Final Fantasy IV!
An excellent classic FF battle theme that I've been meaning to cover for quite a while. Glad it got pulled during the Patreon stream!
One more song left this month which should be ready to go by the final day of April. Till then, thank you all as always for your ongoing contribution and support, you all are the best! ð

2022-04-22 16:31:26 +0000 UTC View PostGreetings from GaMetal land, it's time for an update post!
Included with this post is a preview of the next song up: Battle With The Four Fiends (Dreadful Fight) from Final Fantasy IV! I'm just about finished with this one, you can expect the early download tomorrow (Friday) and the video up on Saturday.
Here's a quick look at our to-do list:
Alright, it's time for the actual song that people have been clamoring for (not that there's anything wrong with Fatal Fury's Big Shot which is also awesome): BIG SHOT from Deltarune Chapter 2!
I really wanted to get this song done and out before the 2022 GaMetal Song Ballot opened, as it was sure to take a top spot. As know, a new Kirby game came out recently, which added another song or two that could potentially take a top spot... but ah wel...

I'm still working fervently on BIG SHOT and just about have it finished. However, I have some family business to attend to over the next few days (visiting), so I may not have it totally finished for a little while longer. I anticipate the early download will be ready and up on Friday, and the video the following day on Saturday.
