When I heard 8bitdannoct1's cover of this song, I really felt like i also had to cover it, but without any expantion chips.

The most difficult part of covering this without any expantion chips was to keep it from sounding empty, but with the power of arpeggio, and some tricks with the echo, I think I did a pretty good job of not making it feel so.

Before you listen to this, I want you to know that 4 or 5 things that i just couldn't get right, I copied from 8bitdannoct1's cover, so credit to him for that. And the drum samples are from jrlepage's cover of creepy crag.

Feel free to tell me what you think. And if you feel like something is inaccurate or needs improvement in any way, I'd love if you told me how to improve it, or if you'd edit it yourself.

Enjoy!


Update 1: Tweaked a few barely audible things! This version became a .man file when I uploaded it. I have no idea why, but just open it like a normal .ftm and it should work.

this sounds good, although the drum samples I used were directly from flashy so that would've been more accurate (if that's what you were going for) :p

nice job

Thank you! And yeah, It would've sounded better with flashy's drum samples, but I didn't feel like it was right to copy them too. Except if it's okay for you that I use them in my cover?

And BTW, your cover was Amazing with a capital A. Actually, all covers you do are amazing.

This is awesome! I like how it sounds like a European soundtrack. (not that that's bad thing.)
Also, have any of you actually played Super Secret Service?

To be honest, I have not played it, but the soundtrack is awesome.

Yeah, the music is incredibly radical. (The game is awesome too)
