Thorns - Friday Night Funkin' [8-bit; VRC6+FDS]

Surprise! I'm back~ with a new League of Legends song cover. I had quite a bit of fun making this. Please enjoy!

Edit: why did no one tell me the download link was unavailable?? Set it to download now! :)

Imagine Dragons - Warriors [8-Bit] (LoL World Championships 2014)

Another requested track that I felt like doing because I enjoyed NGE before the last two episodes and the movie made things dumb. Enjoy! 

Here's a download link to a cute ringtone version: https://www.dropbox.com/s/f27piqcwnslkpb7/Lumena-tan%20-%20Misatone.mp3?dl=0

Check out the sequel! https://soundcloud.com/lumena-tan/splatoon-2-spicy-calamari-inkantation-8-bit-vrc6

I kinda cheated by importing a kick sample from some Yamaha soundboard but shhh this will be our secret~ If you couldn't tell I had a bunch of fun covering this tune. Go play Splatoon if you already haven't!

[VRC6] Splatoon - Calamari Inkantation

Well then, I hit my 1k downloads limit. Thank you so much!! Here's a direct download link from me: https://www.dropbox.com/s/eo9ncl87d4bxg1x/Undertale%20-%20Ghost%20Fight%20%5B8-bit%3B%20VRC6%5D.mp3?dl=0

Cute ghost deserved a neat chiptune rendition of their battle theme. A first in an ongoing series of Undertale chiptune recreations inspired by two of the many Famitracker tunes in the soundtrack (Spider Dance, Metal Crusher). Go play Undertale if you already haven't! Easily worth the $10 price tag :)

Edit 2/28/16: There's a sudden drop in BPM (nearly 10!) right after the chorus that I'm glad no one picked up on. That was a technical oversight on my part due to how Famitracker handles sudden BPM shifts via tempo effect modifiers. Thank you for not beating me up over it! ;)

[VRC6] Undertale - Ghost Fight

Just about two months after my Ghost Fight cover, my cover of Spear of Justice is finally complete. Whew, thank you all for nearly 1.5k followers on Soundcloud! Happy holidays n__n!

Edit 2/28/2016: Arrangement changes made in the first verse based on suggestions @potato-tan made due to them having initially sounded off. (thanks again teto aaa)

[VRC6+MMC5] Pokémon B2W2 - Aspertia City

Undertale anniversary! -confetti and party poppers-

This one took me a few days when it hit me that the anniversary to one of my favorite games was just around the corner, and I've always wanted to arrange my own version of the song since I first heard it. Undyne's easily one of my favorite characters in the game. 

The "But The Earth Refused to Die" section was inspired by Unkempt Hair's piano arrangement. Check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7UA2Wruwgsg

Please enjoy!!

[VRC6] Undertale - Battle Against a True Hero

It’s been two weeks since Pokemon Sun and Moon came out and I absolutely adored the soundtrack. Decided I’d cover a couple of the songs on Famitracker starting with the Team Skull battle theme, composed and arranged by the wonderfully skilled Minako Adachi. Please enjoy!

Pokemon Sun and Moon - Battle! Team Skull [8-bit; VRC6]

Gladion reminds me of a particular rival from my favorite Pokemon game (BW2), and it’s no surprise that both their themes share similarities due to the mastermind of Go Ichinose being behind the composition and arrangement of both their encounter and battle themes.

Yet another NES-like take utilizing the VRC6 chip in tandem with the N163 chip to get the perfect slap bass instrument -- affectionately named “big slappy” -- and was created by @commandycan ! As always, please enjoy n__n!

Persona 5 is honestly such a really good game from the 90 hours I’ve sunk into it since I started playing in late April, so @jillsandwich93​ and I decided to take it upon ourselves to collaborate on a series of Famitracker arrangements of some of our favorite songs starting with Last Surprise! Please enjoy!

Persona 5 - Last Surprise [8-bit; VRC6] (ft. Jilly Shears)

Do you remember? That heavenly melody? The one and only?? SQUID SISTERS! I'm unbelievably happy over the fact that Toru Minegishi and Shiho Fujii managed to outdo themselves with the final boss theme in Splatoon 2 after the first one was such a banger! I figured it would only make sense that I make a follow-up arrangement to the one I made in 2015. Please enjoy, and continue to stay fresh!

Splatoon 2 - Spicy Calamari Inkantation [8-bit; VRC6]

Arranging this song was a lot of fun because it really reminds me of the Mega Man X series soundtrack, so I tried out some wacky synth leads and N163 buffers for the bass. This track was particularly arranged for CEOtaku 2017 by yuzukimasu's (https://twitter.com/yuzukimasu) request (and popular demand :P). I mean... I would have done it anyway because I love this song (Raito is incredible) but the tournament gave me reason to do it faster! Please tune in this weekend \o/

The first thing I did when I heard Octo Expansion drop was look up the final boss theme and get right away to arranging, but a few gratuitous setbacks here and there had me postpone this to make it the visual spectacle it turned out to be, and I couldn't have done it without @jtangc yet again!!

One of my favorite things of Octo Expansion's soundtrack -- and Splatoon as a whole -- is how strong the recurring motif usage is, like how they build up the final boss theme with the Mission Complete jingle!! Can't expect anything less from the audio team at this point. Hope you enjoy!

A very relaxing piece compared to our last video.. It's my first time working on something this relaxing since most of my work has been fast or energetic tunes, as a result I chose to exclude Pearl's extended rap in the second verse as I felt like it wouldn't work for a track like this. Sorry!! Please enjoy~

If you expected me to not arrange a Deltarune track then you're mistaken!! This game really took me by surprise, as did Undertale when I went into it blind. It's very nostalgic going back to work on arrangements of Toby Fox's music and I'm happy to be able to share them with you! Please enjoy~

Deltarune - Field of Hopes and Dreams [8-bit; VRC6]

[lumena-tan uses two expansion chips as to appear competent]

Rude Buster has this unusual thing where it's ever-so-slightly off pitch from the key of F# minor, so it made arranging this a pain in the butt! Thanks Toby!! For this arrangement I used the N163 chip to complement the arrange with a grittier bass to give it more oomph. Hope you enjoy it!

Am I legally required to cover the Smash Ultimate remix of this track? I mean.. It IS pretty good...!

This cover was fun to work on if only for recreating Lyn's vocal performance in a reduced sound fidelity! Just one of many Persona 5 arrangements to come. I'm really REALLY into the new Persona 5 R opening theme wink wink

(also happy birthday to me! please enjoy this gift from me to you)

Another Famitracker arrangement in a series of Smash Ultimate-specific remixes. This one particularly was my way of figuring out how to mix Shovel Knight's style alongside my own. I feel like it's one of my best yet. Please enjoy!

What can I say except Go Ichinose absolutely does it again with a Pokemon soundtrack! This one took me by surprise since I'm used to listening to his bass-heavy composition work. Feels like a slight callback to his gen 2 style even. Please enjoy!

Immediately as I finished listening to Hop's theme I just knew I NEEDED to cover it in this style. Go Ichinose blows me away with another battle theme! There's lots of little salsa elements in this, also kind of Mario & Luigi vibes. Makes for a very jumpy and energetic theme!

Marnie's one adorably cool gal, so I felt her theme needed a bit more punch to emphasize this by throwing in a few parts from her encounter theme while adding my own for the "battle" vibe. Enjoy! and happy new year~ See you all in 2020.

Criminally underrated theme; this deserved to play more than just once. Interestingly, it's one of the few instances where Ichinose and Adachi collaborate together on a track, with the original being Rose's encounter theme that would be later used to base Oleana's battle theme on.
