The intro theme to the classic PC game Myst, redone in 8-bit NES style, synced to the original intro movie!

8-bit music created by me, and the video was ripped, edited and synced to the music by GermanShepherd, http://www.youtube.com/GermanShepherd0 (though honestly, he spent more time creating the video than I did making the music)

Here's a video that shows how the video itself was compiled from the original, and it plays the original theme and the 8-bit theme at the same time for comparison: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=af00p8P92-M



Creation Details:
- I used Cubase SX 3 to recreate the music. To create the NES sounds, I used the VST plugins SYNTENDO, Triforce (by Tweakbench), and NES VST (google 'em :D)
- The video was created with Adobe After Effects CS4, and the video was extracted from the original Windows 95 version of Myst using Riveal, http://homepage.mac.com/rshayter/Riveal.html

Myst and all related properties, including the intro video and the original theme, are copyright Cyan Worlds, Inc.

  • This is beyond awesome and deserves to have it's views multiplied by a factor of over 9000. One of the greatest things I've seen on youtube, ever.

  • There's a bug for the original MYST fly-by. Notice @ 1:21 that the huge gears are open, as if someone's already been to the island before the player. When you link through, though, THEY'RE CLOSED! O.o
