    Video Game Covers (?)

    Remove this ad: become a supporter
    Okay, so lately I've been listening to a lot of video game covers being the huge nerd I am. So I was interested in seeing if any of you guys are interested in any. It doesn't if they're popular (the *insert title here* meets metal guy) or...not popular coverists. As long as it's a cover of a song from a video game, feel free to post it on here and it can be any type of cover. Hard rock, metal, electronic, even dubstep covers are welcome here. Here's mine, from a guy on youtube called "CSGuitar89". Hope you guys enjoy, and check out his other stuff, if he interests you. skip to 0:20 in the video to skip his intro.

    Well first of all, I got bored one day and made a "remix" of the star theme from super mario when it's really just a cover with sound effects from some of the games. I thought it was crap and was going to remove it from soundcloud but it has 12 downloads so those people clearly disagree with me xD http://soundcloud.com/psychedelic-ne...ix-super-mario

    Also, there's this one guy on youtube who has dedicated his whole channel to covers of songs from the legend of zelda. They're all pretty f***ing amazing even though he's only done 6 so far AND he uses different techniques every time.

    Here's Dragon Roost Island:


    And The Song of Healing on FREAKING WINE GLASSES!!!!!:


    I also found this around the same time for the wind waker title theme:


    I have many many more videos I could show as this is one of my favourite topics. When I get the equipment I want to cover so many songs from various video game soundtracks that it's probably going to take me at least a lifetime.

    I'm also very fond of remixes. I'm subscribed to two artists on youtube who remix video game music if that counts? They've made some brilliant stuff that I'd love to show

    Kinda in a different groove but you might like some of the stuff on Over Clocked Remix... Just a bunch of geek geeking out over video game music

    You should check out Blake Robinson over on SoundCloud.

    He makes amazing orchestral covers of video game music.
