Meshuggah Zone (Sega Megadrive)

This is a videogame reinterpretation of Meshuggah's music.

The first part contains Automony Lost, followed by Rational Gaze. Instead of doing a simple midi-to-vgm FL Studio hack job, I did more by meticulously changing things around, slightly altering bass/guitar lines, thickening the sound with some delicious high-end synths, increasing general tempo, and more importantly: I've added extra melodies and twiddly bits.

The hardest part however, was to get this all sounding relatively nice, and while I still think some parts could have been done better (like the solo), I think it sounds pretty solid. So put your volume on max and bang your head along to this track!!

Plugins 'n stuff used: Magical8bit, FM7, FM8, Nexus, NES Soundfont, The Ultimate Megadrive Soundfont, Sonic 2 ripped drum samples, SynthFont program (for the pitch bending solo, FL Studio failed at it)

I'm amazed at the positive feedback, and ashamed of having dropped this youtube account for so long, only to return to find these awesome comments. I don't know if I'm making more of these, but I'm definitely considering ;) Stay tuned, people? Peace!

The Genesis Chip was strangely awesome for emulating raw distorted guitar tones. Take a listen of the intro from Demolition Man on Genesis and compare it with the SNES version.

BTW, this is awesome!
