nono, AmIEvil's mix is still the best
Are you referring to "Death on the Snow Field"? That one rocks, but I'm with Wire, Ailsean's "Terra in Black" is the best.
Brinstar - quite possible.
Are we talking about Brinstar from Super Metroid here? hmmm.. I know a very cool mix made by Protricity, one of the tracks from the Relics of the Chozo CD, a Super Metroid soundtrack project. The remix is called "Full of Life", it's very well made. I think the composition comunicates soothingness and a sort of mysticism. I just love those synth sounds.
You can download this remix from
here (track #6).
Now, a heavy metal version? I just can't imagine an electric guitar or some drums, or even vocals, fitting in that melody. I think it'd be really hard to make it sound like the game.
Well it's just my opinion. Wire, I'm sure you could come up with something really nice, you're (very) creative.
And what about The Goonies 2? Not Cyndi Lauper theme, but fast-tune-that-sounds-almost-like-Cyndi-Lauper-theme or Waterfall stage? I've always loved those.
*thumbs up*
If we ever do a Bionic Commando cover, it has to be about the secret love affair between captain Rad Spencer and Super Joe. I don't know why, but the ending reminds me a little of the Brokeback Mountain kind of gayness. It's just a feeling I get.
I really loved that game, and the music from the first stage (Area 1?) of course. What wouldn't I do to hear a Bionic Commando cover :twisted: . Among all the considered options, this one's the one I'm mostly looking forward to.
And about the gay lyrics, the... secret love affair :x .. you're kidding right?
