Mustin & Dale North - Chrono Trigger - Team Gato

[2001.03] http://www.Mustin.net

It's very hard to explain this one. I think Dale and I were riding on the immense success of "Needles." Feeling incredibly goofy one nite (as we often were late at nite), we began talking about an audio drama featuring a nite club act called "Team Gato" that performed arrangements of the 4 measure "Gato" theme from the Chrono Trigger Video Game. I ended up going home, and the next day I had the first part of this song, and Dale had the second part of this song. Then we met up and worked together on the third and fourth parts. Thus, the song was completed and the legend lives on.

[2001.03] This arrangement garnered some major attention. John Romero, creator of Doom and Commander Keen loves the track and played it around the office often. We've had many, many eMails from all kinds of people all over the world praising the insanity. Unfortunately, it was encouraging, which lead to the "Legend of Zelda 2002" arrangement (see number 11 above). Regardless, "Team Gato" has been labeled a "Video Game Remix Staple" - a must have. With inside jokes a plenty, it seems everyone remotely interested in video game remixes/arrangements comes across this song.
