Enjoy the Video Game Rock Medley!
The above full sequence of awesomeness comes courtesy of Swedish musician Fredrik Larsson, better known as FreddeGredde. Even if you don't know him by name, I guarantee you've heard this man's handiwork before. For one, he made this medley of tracks from Mega Man 9, but much more importantly, he was responsible for "Wind Waker Unplugged," my absolute favorite Zelda musical arrangement EVER! With the help of drummer Louis Abramson from the band JOLLY, Fredde tears through 34 tracks spanning multiple platforms and generations. Represented games include Cave Story, Shenmue, The Secret of Monkey Island, Mega Man 2, Fire Emblem, Halo, Yoshi's Island, Dr. Mario, and tons more. If you aren't busy this evening (and why would you be, you slackers!?), check the whole song out! Did you know? You can now get daily or weekly email notifications when humans reply to your comments.
Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)Was blown away by this when a friend showed it to me yesterday. Plus it doesn't hurt that the drummer is HAWT. Is it just me or does anyone else feel like crying when they hear the ffx song zanarkand or that kindom hearts song. All i can think about is tidus death and soras sacrifice. <3 FreddeGredde. He's such an excellent musician. I dig the drums too.
