October is in the books! We now look ahead to November for a bunch more songs that I mentioned in the previous update post. Oh yeah, and before I get off here today, I have some new...

We still have one more song left for October, coming this Tuesday: the winner of the Halloween Poll! (I'd mention it by name, but I make all these new song posts public!).
So I'll be seeing you again real soon. I'l...

Video tomorrow, hopefully. Until then, enjoy! :)

Back again with another NES Medley #5 preview for you all, this one's the Dungeon theme from Startropics.
If you're an old GaMetal fan, you might remember this one was in the very first NES Medley back in 2009. I've always loved this song. xD
One more preview coming for you either later or early tomorrow, until then, enjoy! :)

Hey Patrons! Here's the first song up for October: Doom Dragon from Golden Sun: The Lost Age!
Probably one of the most technically difficult songs I've done in a while. It's a really awesome tune though. It's always interesting covering Golden Sun stuff. xD
I'll be taking a small break tomorrow and getting to some acoustic stuff. Until then, thank you all as always for your support and contribution! I can't stress enough how thankful I am for eac...

Hey again! I didn't think I'd get this one finished tonight... but I did! So here's your early download for Doom Dragon!
I'm gonna try to get the video up tomorrow, but it could still end up being Monday. Cause this song is hard as hell. Haha.
Enjoy! :)

Hey Patrons! Here's a super quick recap of today's drawing stream.
Well, we didn't really have much to draw this time, so I mostly just hung out and talked with you guys for a little bit. With only one drawing song this month, there's not too much to go over, but you can always check out the archived stream video if you want to. :)
So here's your winner of this month's Patreon Request List drawing:

We still managed to squeeze a 3rd song in before the end of the month! Here's the second drawing winner for September: To the World of Darkness from Zeliard!
September is now in the books, and we're moving onward to October and I sitll have an enormous amount of things to do. I'll have an update post for you all very soon.

Yes, that's right, this is not a drill... here's the early download for the next song, the other request list drawing winner for September: To the World of Darkness from an old MS DOS game called Zeliard!
Chances are you've never heard of this game, but it has a really solid soundtrack. This song in particular sort of gives off some Castlevania vibes.

Undertale is back and this time we're taking on both of Undyne's battle themes: Spear of Justice and Battle Against a True Hero!
BAaTH was recently drawn from the latest Patreon drawing, and I've always made a note that if I were to ever do this song, I'd be dual mixing it with Spear of Justice. It was drawn at almost a perfect time, with Undertale recently celebrating it's 2 year anniversary, and also recently being released on PS4.
The next song up will be the other drawing winner for ...

Good morning/afternoon/evening Patrons!
Here's a preview of the upcoming song, the dual remix of Spear of Justice and Battle Against a True Hero.
This is the first part of the first half of the remix: Spear of Justice.
I'm pushing to get this one up tomorrow, so for you Tier 2+s out there, the early download could come a bit later tonight!
Enjoy!

Finally: The Genesis Medley has arrived!
This took me a lot longer than I had anticipated, so I'm going to change up the order for the next few songs. I was originally going to follow this up with NES Medley, but I'm instead going to push it back a couple of songs and get to Spear of Justice/Battle Against a True Hero and To the World of Darkness first. I'm hoping to get at least these 2 out before the month is over.
I'll have a small up...

It's finally here: the Genesis Medley is complete! I'm hoping to push the video out tomorrow, but there's a possibility it could end up being Wednesday. Only time will tell!
But for now, at least the song itself is finished! A big chunk of my arrangement time was spent condensing the songs into a shorter version convenient for a medley (a lot of these songs are 2-3 minutes long originally), with my aim being for about 45-70 seconds each. Which I think I achieved for the most part, haha.

Hey Patrons!
I'm FINALLY almost done with the first full draft for the Genesis Medley. It clocks in at a little over 11 minutes! I'm hoping to get the video up by Sunday, but it should be no later than Monday.
So like I usually do with medley previews, I'm gonna post 3 different songs from the medley for you, starting with the opening track of the medley: Laughter from Phantasy Star IV.
A couple more previews will be coming later. Until then, enjoy! :)

As promised, here's a recap of the drawing results from today's stream for those who couldn't make it.
First up, the FOUR Patreon Request List songs. One for the month of September, and the other 3 from extra drawing milestone goal rewards! I'd like to note once more that this won't necessarily be the order the songs come in, and they won't all be in September, but will span from this month to October, early November at the latest.
So without further a...
