About

Passions in life - games, music and the combination / creation of the two. Doing a lot of videogame music covers, mainly rockin'!

Spent super much time as a "competitive" FPS gamer, like this. 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.

Will never forget you, RetroforceGO!

Unholy Pinballs! (VGM Cover)

7:10 AM on 08.22.2011

You best believe it took a while to sit and listen out each and every one of these roughly five billion delicious TurboGrafx-16 notes (and then figure out what to do with them all). Quite happy with how it turned out in the end!

As I've already told Chad; I constantly had his high regard for this game (as expressed on RFGO) in the back of my head from the moment I got the link to the original soundtrack, so even though I hadn't played it myself I had that "this game is amazing, I'm so motivated to do my best tribute!" feeling while working on the cover. Of course, the game is amazing as I've now confirmed (please "enjoy" my first time playing it in the video, heh) and I'll absolutely be playing it some more for all the cool bonus stages etc that I've seen on reviews and stuff.

But man, the music in this. I'd play a lot more pinball games if Devil's Crush was the norm :)

Anyway, hope ye likes.

Thanks! Well, not only was I not subscribed to your channel (could've sworn I was; rectified anyway) but also suck at even leaving any comments sometimes even though I listen to your stuff (even had the Destructoid Community Album playing as I was writing, no joke - really love all the chippy tracks!) so no worries :)

This is great stuff, one of my favorites games of all time. Excellent work!

Wow! Never played this game, this looks sweet! I love pinball games, and good video game pinball titles are fare too rare.

Thanks :) Never heard of Black Knight 2000 but sounds like it would require the sassy fap choir lol

Awesome work, I loved it , didn't know that there were more music interested Swedish Dtoiders around here ! Man I love those creepy and gory 16 bit games, splatterhouse pinball should be a thing :P

Torzelan

Yeah seriously, love the style of the bosses in Contra 3 (and thankfully Contra 4!) too. Randomly related, love this video on gory 2D bosses by goemon047 :)

Kaggen

Yeah me too , especially his music of choice in the videos , I could watch those over and over again :)
