Destructoid's weekly Sound Card Remixer Profiles highlights the works and music of the internet's game music remixers. If you've read our game music primer, you'll know that "remixers" are what the game music community calls fan arrangers of videogame tunes. There's a bunch of them out there, and we aim to cover the best ones for you here.

This week we look at the varied and awesome works of Japanese release group Hyadain.

Hyadain. What a perfectly geeky name for a group that reworks videogame music for public performance. Never heard of them? Well-versed gamers know "hyadain" as the name of one of the stronger ice spells in the famed RPG series Dragon Warrior. Too geeky for you? Well-versed game music fans know Hyadain as the makers of incredibly popular remixes sweeping YouTube right now.

Hit the jump to read more on (and hear more of) Hyadain.

Unfortunately, there's not a lot of information on Hyadain out there. We do know that they are probably a group (some say a trio) of Japanese musicians who made themselves net-famous with their vocal remixes of popular RPG tunes on Japan's Nico Nico Douga video sharing Web site (think YouTube with real-time text scrolling over the videos). As is the case with much of the other crazy/notable content of Nico Nico, Hyadain's songs slowly made their way onto YouTube, and now the group is slowly becoming a worldwide name. 

Hyadain takes music from popular role playing series like Dragon Quest, Final Fantasy, and even Mother and puts their own spin on them. This "spin" is usually full instrumentation, high quality production values, and, most importantly, awesome vocals. Their works usually have a dance feel to them, and many contain vocal harmonies. It's hard to summarize their works, as they vary in source and type. They're all great, though!
