Retro Games Reviewer #13; Retro Games' Music Covers.

There are many great retro games' covers all over youtube. Through those, we can see that the good old cartridges had in them some serious music composing. For all kinds of music genres. As a musician, I'm very fond of some great soundtracks in Video games.



Here, you have the castles' themes from the very first Super Mario Bros. in Metal version, by the band Nylithia. It's fucking awesome. The videoclip is also quite amusing. Check it out until the end:



Contra Jungle theme, by Vertex Guy. Also Metal. Of course, what else? This awesome track in violins? I think it wouldn't work. A lot of improvising, and guitar shredding which I liked:



Sonic, Green Hill Zone "a capella". Meaninig: a single guy - Smooth McGroove - did all the sounds in the song, through his own voice. And mixed it all.


Acoustic version of Castlevania's boss theme, "Poison Mind." Performer goes by the name of Oroz5



Also, check out this Swedish Band. They are "Game Over", and they have great songs based on NES classics. Zelda, for example. With voice, lyrics, it's all there. NESperado is one of their albums. Here's "Zelda. Hyrule's Angel (The Sleeping Beauty)."
