MSX - Music from Nemesis II (SCC), part 1

[teamdoa]

One person is tone deaf.

[Halaitsame]

Man, I love Ancient Planet. It needs a remix so bad.

[crapheadandidiot]

Hm... I do believe that the Floating Continent stage and the Flame Planet stage themes are reversed.

[Ponderdrol]

Great music.. but it is a littlebit too fast.. it should be somewhat slower.. maybe the reason is this is the NTSC version and I played PAL versions

[FastAsADonut]

@Ponderdrol That is the reason, yes.

[TheBlackSky000]

Thanks for the great videos. You bring old memories back.

But I think and if I'm not wrong that stage 4 and 5 musics should be swapped. Am I right?

And thanks again for your great work.

[megamarsvin]

Air Battle is such an awesome song.. ♥ ♥ ♥

[73joramone]

A lot of cool memories.

I recorded years ago all the musics from Konami games, 'cause they were the best.

[Matarazzi]

FUCK YES!!!

...sorry bout that got a little excited....

[Funkytripz]

Best part is 4:00 up to 4:38 with the climax at 4:25

Best game music ever...I always got shivers then :D

[team2ch]

stage 4/10 and 5/9 music are not right.

[crapheadandidiot]

This is probably the best soundtrack of the three! Thanx for the upload!

[konamiman]

Ooops! The musics of levels 4th and 5th are swapped in the video!!

[floresed]

I say it again, this game its some of the coolest music in any Gradius game. The remake Gradius 2: Nemesis 94 for the sharp x68000 has an awesome arranged version of all the songs.

I have the emulator on my computer and sometimes i play Nemesis 94 just cause of the great work done on the music.

[pekkis1979]

Can't believe I played this game through with an original MSX :) Can't remember how many times I died in level 8 pre-boss where objects was moving up and down. Absolutely one of the greatest 2d shooter ever made. Love the game, love the music.

[APOL1000]

one of the best games .

dude tank u .

[miiwii93]

This is a good one, but I especialy liked the remake made in '93 (Nemesis '90 Kai) I can also say this is one of the harder Gradius games out there.

[streetphase]

this sounds badass =p

i never played this or am familur with it but its really cool

[oldskoolgamertje]

After I finish my replay of Space Manbow (another side scrolling shmup) and I feel gutsy, I might do some recording of the Nemesis games. They are hard.

[Nintega]

Thank you for uploading this :D

[oldskoolgamertje]

Thank you. It appears I am the only one on YouTube doing this sort of thing with music from MSX games.

[METAL1ON]

Is this recorded from an emulator?

some of the channels are missing from the sound.

This is a fault with certain channels not being played loud enough the Toshiba MSX suffered this problem with the scc chip.

I know this because i still have the original carts and 2 msx computers.

[oldskoolgamertje]

As long as I can remember it sounds like this. Even on my old MSX. Never had the original ROM, though. I will check it out some time.

[IvanisovitschGrozny]

It IS better with a few more Db's for the PSG, imho.

That's also how I remember it but I'll admit that I had an 'equalizer' on it back then.

[porcorosso81]

@oldskoolgamertje

Did you have a Philips MSX machine?

On those, the PSG is too quiet. Konami uses the PSG for drum sounds, which are almost inaudible on my Philips 8250 and 8280. So I modified them.

[METAL1ON]

the game i took my name from many years ago METALION (although someone on youtube already had it so i had to spell it METAL1ON)

[Zebpro]

Thanks for this !

By the way, you swapped track 7 and 8 music. :p

[oldskoolgamertje]

I did?! Oh, I thought I was thorough enough, given the time I spend on researching the titles and composers... :-/
