So glad to have finished this one after all that on-and-off working!

Exactly what the title says. A VRC6 rendition of the famous theme that plays when you fight Zero Two (or 0^2, if you prefer) in Kirby 64: the Crystal Shards.

And as a little bonus, I decided to throw in a 2A03 version, showing what I think it would've sounded like if Kirby 64 were a classic NES game. Kinda difficult, seeing how much it varies from other Kirby boss music, but I think I pulled it off nicely.

Please leave any comments or suggestions. I'm always open to (constructive) criticism!

Well dang, I covered this song in n163 and as a bonus made a 2a03 version. I haven't posted it yet so it looks like you beat me to it.

Compositional wise it is pretty good. The only complaints I have is that the lead initially is pretty bland, a pure saw or square wave is not the most pleasant thing to listen to so when possible add a vibrato, tremolo, etc.. Anything to spice it up. Also I felt the opening cymbals were a bit overbearing and long. I attached an edited ftm btw. I hope I'm not being too nit-picky. Other then that the song is well composed and is enjoyable.

Hey, thanks!

I was trying a bit more for accuracy, so I think I'll have another listen to the original version to see what I can do about that first bit of saw.

Ok, I did my own edit, and I'm actually happier with it. I also put in the little music box riff that I forgot in the first draft.

Thanks for the feedback!
