This is a VRC7 Remake of the Elecman Themes from the Nes and the Gameboy. It took me about 40 hours in total to finish it so it won't be perfect. Please tell me what parts you think are good and the parts you think are bad, criticism is welcome on my posts ;D

I like the part where there's complete silence.

Greatest cover ever, man. You deserve a Grammy or seven.

Now that's just mean; telling someone they deserve a Grammy's like wishing ball cancer on somebody. :P

Haha, wow, I didn't know that REM also did Elecman before Elecman. Interesting that it was recorded in the same year that Journey released "Faithfully". This is sort of like "Ghostbusters" by Ray Parker, Jr. and "I Want a New Drug" by Huey Lewis and the News. I guess some ideas are just too good to not find their way into music.

I'm sorry for the delay, I must have forgot to attach the song, damn that upload button!! Oh and the reason it took about 40 hours is that I took major breaks in-between working on it.

A pretty average cover overall. The song would benefit greatly from volume control and more dynamic VRC7 instruments.

I'm not too good with VRC7. I just found out how to customise instruments yesterday, but possible changes could happen in due time.

The triangle is hardly noticeable. I added some echo effects and lowered the volume for the FM chip ; and added noise/triangle/Square drums in 12 and 07. This remake you've cover will fit nicely in a Genesis collection of the Mega man games.


*Edit*


It's still not perfect though. The internal hard ware is now too loud..


*Edit*

Added some volume slides for the square instruments.
