This week's cover + other updates
Music work + ....work work has been messing with me a little this week, but I'm excited to show you guys some of the stuff coming up! First of all, I'll be doing Lavender Town this week. It's a cover I always wanted to try, and I feel like it would be a good cover for this spooky month we have. On top of that, I met up with an amazing cameraman to help direct the special "You Will Know Our Names" video. Any visual progress made will be shown to you guys. That also includes storyboards if there a...

The music in this game is good. I got a chance to try the game. I'll be honest with you guys here...I didn't enjoy it at all. The game play is way too long and boring (even if you remove the touch control gimmick, using ONE attack requires a button combo of: A, up, hold A, up, up and then waiting a little more). Also for every piece of good dialogue you've seen on the internet, there have been 20 bad lines to accompany it. Every speech bubble has a joke in it, and I found it way too forced and u...

so for this week, I'm actually torn between two covers (as usual). I might hit up a classic (Bayou Boogie from Donkey Kong Country 2) or "Ashley's Theme" from the Wario Ware series because HALLOWEEN. I figure I have to get into the spirit at some point :) That being said, I will probably do one more Undertale rock dance on the 31st, since it'll be exactly one year since the bonetrousle one. I was thinking of doing "dummy" and having my buddy and I dressed up a mannequins, but that depends on if ...

Pretty happy with how this one came out :) I love grooving to swing-style things.
2016-09-30 11:42:50 +0000 UTC View PostDark Matter 02 - Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon
The title totally made me think it was Kirby when I first found this. Still an amazing theme, and it was a lot of fun to play around with! :)

SOOOOO I might get a little backlash for this one..or none at all! It really depends. While I'm not a huge fan of Paper Mario Color Splash, some songs are pretty damn awesome, and I pictured a pretty cool rock cover for the battle theme, so I'll be giving it a shot. Hopefully everyone will enjoy that :) More Paper Mario tracks will be coming eventually, including the very hype Rawk Hawk's theme :OO

I went with the pokemon mystery dungeon song. Lots of fun! :D

I might end up deciding for myself, but for this week, I'm torn between two pokemon songs. The first one is the final boss theme from pokemon super mystery dungeon. Really damn catchy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5jpdiv1718The seconddd is the trainer battle theme from Pokemon Sun and Moon. Also pretty catchy, albeit more fun. 2016-09-22 10:26:23 +0000 UTC View Post
Battle Against a True Hero (Metal Cover) - Undertale
This is one of my favorite covers now. I was so fun to do, and playing around with the lighting was very fun :) I hope you guys enjoyed it if you already saw it! It looks like quite a few people are checking this one out. The views on average are doing pretty good!

This one is definitely a favorite now. :D
2016-09-16 10:30:37 +0000 UTC View PostWhat this week's second cover will be
I wanted to celebrate Undertale's 1 year anniversary with a cover. I was hoping to get it done by tomorrow, but it MIGHT have to wait until friday/saturday unless I have time to buckle down tonight. The song itself is "Battle Against a True Hero" (thanks, Sanj). I'm really excited about this one. If my mic arrives in time, I could probably record some cool stuff for the bridge. Guess we'll see!

I finally got to cover one of my top 10 favorite songs. Loads of fun. Reversing it and hearing Zelda's Lullaby was fun too! :D
2016-09-13 03:47:00 +0000 UTC View PostThis Week's Cover(s?)
OKAY so for this week, I would like to do an Undertale cover because of the anniversary coming up. I would like it to be one of the battle themes. I have no idea which one yet. IF YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS, FEEL FREE TO LET ME KNOW. I know for a fact some of you are Undertale fans here. Let's make it awesome.
Another idea I had for this cover was to make it a little special and do it in different genres for fun. I don't know if I'll do this yet. It really depends on the song, but it could be ...

Despite this month being a hectic little bastard, I would like to do one of these still. both the $5 and $10 tier are able to enter (you're the only ones who can see this anyways). Just a couple points to make:- Please pick 3 songs to request. Giving more choices is always better!
- It doesn't have to be JUST video games. Feel free to request songs from animes, shows, etc.
- Try not to be TOO obscure. Picking tracks that are out there are okay.
So ther...

I obviously wanted to post this much earlier. I've had a lot of stuff happen that I need to take care of, and it's been taking a lot of my time. Things should hopefully clear up by next week. That being said, there is still a cover coming saturday. It's "Ballad of the Goddess" from Skyward Sword. It's one of my favorite video game songs, so it should be pretty fun. Gonna record....everything tomorrow. Audio and video. That should be fun. Not the first time it's happened anyways :) LOOK FOR...

This cover was a LOT of fun. I've been wanting to do it forever. I added a lot of my own original riffage to the track, but I think the other half of the fun came from trying to glitch it out a little. It was originally glitched even more than the version now, but it became a little too obvious and jarring at that point. I'm very happy wit this result. I hope you guys enjoyed :)

Hoo boy, I'm dyin. Been way too busy with work and other things, but I'm excited to say this cover is coming out pretty damn well. I've been wanting to cover it for awhile. This week's song is "P.R.O.G.R.A.M" from kirby planet robobot. It's really cool sounding, and I had a lot of room to be creative with it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JMtRysYUoF8
