Rhythm Tengoku Gold's Laboratory of Love remixed photo

We're enthralled with Rhythm Tengoku Gold at the Destructoid fortress, and in fact have been for some time. You may have noticed. In an effort to give voice to the adoration spilling from our hearts for Tsunku's masterpiece, a few of the Dtoid editors decided to put their heads together and come up with an original remix of the song that accompanies one of the minigames, called "Love Potion".

You can check out the video after the jump, which features singing, original music and lyrics from Dale North, and illustrations by Jonathan Holmes. If you aren't dancing around after twenty seconds of this, you have severe depression and should likely kill yourself. No, I'm kidding. See a doctor, because this is funky and awesome and if you have a shred of love in your heart for Rhythm Tengoku Gold (or Rhythm Heaven as the U.S. knows it as), you day's about to get a little brighter. If you'd like to download it so you can listen to it on repeat, as I did, go grab the MP3 here.

Man, Dale told me he was working on this like six months ago! I'm glad it's finally done.

Very nice remix Dale, also great art Jon! Are those the lyrics to the English Dub of Love Lab or your own?

Since MGS2 was my first MGS, I just don't see anything wrong with it.

That was actually fucking awesome. I'm not really a fan of the music in Rhythm Heaven (though I love the game), but this was great.

There are many songs that convey a feeling of emotion, a blend of happiness and sadness. Soothing melodies to create a genuine flow of feelings, something that is a joy to listen to and fun to move along to. This is one of those songs.

In other words, this was awesome. :D

I'm looking for a good adjective to describe Dale's singing with... ah, to hell with it:

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUM!
