About Me


Doing a lot of videogame music covers (mainly rockin')!



26 y/o dude, Sweden. Passions in life - games, music and the combination / creation of the two. Got a decent little nerd base of my own, but always struggling to stay afloat economically.



Spent super much time as a "competitive" FPS gamer, like this. Have lost the motivation though and found the work/time/headache to fun/reward ratio to be really messed up, so quit that right before newyears '09. Back to the roots - fun games for pure enjoyment! Mega Man fo' lyfe.



Big fan of the Destructoid podcasts. Will never forget you, RetroforceGO!

Just got done with Juri's Theme from Super Street Fighter IV so thought I'd blog 'bout it (seen more dtoiders post their covers on various instruments!). Hope Solgrim likes this one!
Game release in two days (also my birthday!), get pumped!



Did Wily Stage 1 from Mega Man 2 (best game ever) about two weeks ago.



A quick Mega Man 10 cover (one of two) I tossed together just before that, "Fireball Strike" from Strike Man (or as I can't seem to stop calling him - always thinking of Samit - Sports Man)'s stage.



Aaand the oldest one (last month...), "The Decisive Battle" from Final Fantasy VI (or III, if you're one of those guys ;))



Ehm, yeeap.



Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

Fun fact: SUPLEX TRAIN was the position in which I was conceived.

'sall by ear, can't read sheet music either and tabs are... well, nice if they're done properly (mostly not) or exist at all, which often isn't the case especially with new stuff like SSF4 and MM10 so being able to listen somewhat really is the best.

Can't say I'm huge on collabs (though have one in the past and one ongoing actually), mostly because I just do what I want to do when I feel like it (literally, really not spent more than like two days on anything I've heard/learnt/recorded/uploaded) so having to want to do the same thing as someone else, at the same time, and getting it done that fast (before I'm off to the next thing lol) can be tough.

Also have to say, as I began writing this I checked your CBlogs to see if you had anything uploaded and just clicked the first thing I saw (being "Piano Journal - April 24, 2010") with the intention of just letting it run a minute or so... Don't know how long I've been sitting now but all I can say is holy shit, I'm not worthy anyway hahaha. That's just magic on a piano (actually just now the first thing I recognized - Castlevania! - came on, but it's been flawless and enjoyable the whole way through and I'm not even the kind of guy who will be glued to stuff like this normally).

Mp3 ended, going to listen to more on your site now... But rounding this off, don't even know what to say really, you're a so much better musician that it's not even funny. I'll work on my skills for a decade or two lol.

Congrats for the mention on the front page man. I listened to the rest of your stuff after hearing the remix of Juri's theme and I liked what I hear, I definitely fap'd. Hope you don't mind that I ripped the audio off the videos to put on my MP3 player since there is no download link. This shite is too good to be only limited to listening on a stationary computer and bulky laptop.

Thanks, yeah I've been a bit sloppy with MP3 links (usually have the publically requested ones in the YT description), just lemme know if anything's missing and I'll up it no problem.

Not a big deal to some people (not too fuzzed myself) but YouTube definitely adds some extra clipping here and there in the (redundant?) re-processing.
