RIP Art Bell you were a real champ of the midnight airwaves

SHADOW PEOPLE

Truly absurd to think a dog could swap two horizonally adjacent panels in order to match three or more panels of the same color. I sure hope someone got fired for that blunder.

Panel de Pon / Tetris Attack - Forest Stage (Poochy) [2-N163; 0CC-Famitracker]

(insert YTP quote of your choosing here) 

I've got a cover all ready for Halloween, but... well, it's not Halloween yet. So once again I decided to cover something quick and easy just to have something to tide myself over. Plus, this is a song I've been wanting to do anyway, so it all worked out.

Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog - Dr. Robotnik's Theme [2A03; 0CC-Famitracker]

Happy Halloween!

This was quite possibly the most difficult and convoluted song I've ever covered. Jake Kaufman really does go unhinged mode when writing these tracks.

Shovel Knight - La Danse Macabre (Lich Yard) [SNES; Mega Man X-style]

Even though it's short, Centaur Man's theme has always been a favorite of mine; It's a bit more soothing and mystical than your usual 8-bit Mega Man song. 

I tried to expand on that idea here with lots of echos and chords, to give it more of a hazy vibe.

Mega Man 6 - Centaur Man [VRC6; 0CC-Famitracker]

LURKER

Mostly based on Symphonia, though I borrowed a couple of elements from the Tales of Phantasia version.

Tales of Symphonia - Fighting of the Spirit [2A03; 0CC-Famitracker]

A song about gender moods and anime 

special thanks to ZeroJanitor for the breaks sample (www.youtube.com/@ZeroJanitor)

lyrics:
a sailor suit and a magic sword
a miniskirt and a loaded gun
i’m gazing at a girl ideal
dysphoric haze, nothing is real
warping life around the screen
distorted brain trapped in a dream
her pixel eyes stare back at me
i want to end it i want to scream

polymorphously perverted
gender drawn with jagged lines
crashed like a broken machine
and melted down with alchemy
a transformation sequence plays
i’m armed with painted eyes and blades
ready to fuck and ready to kill
just like a beautiful fighting girl

two dimensional sex and violence

BEAUTIFUL FIGHTING GIRL

Hey it's another Tales of Symphonia cover! I've actually played the game since the last cover I released and I liked it a lot! The battle system in particular is super-fun.

Anyway I decided not to use DPCM for this cover and just use noise percussion, since I think the song has a little bit of a Capcom feel to it.
