2 orchestrated tracks from different authors. The second one is more basic and needs volume boost. I’ll do it when I get my hands to add those to the music section.

Felix The Cat NES seems has almost no music covers at all. The game is not well known I guess. It’s an easy game, and if you want to introduce NES to a kid that could be a good choice for 1 player game, tho the controls could be tricky at first.
Batman NES is you typical hard rock cover. Done in good clean quality.
The Transilvania theme from Quackshot Starring Donald Duck SEGA Genesis is something avantgarde, with dissonant notes. It also reminds weirdness from other Transilvania themes(like Duck Tales 2 NES)

The music from the homebrew Astro Ninja Man is really good. It took inspiration from various games vibes 8-16 bit. I suppose it is made on Recca Summer Carnival 92 engine. You may hear Alien 3, Gyruss, Darkman, Silver Surfer, Legend of Kage, Super Spy Hunter, Recca(obviously) as well as 16 bits Streets of Rage and Batman influences and many more.
This recorded directly from the console.

Videos this days has a new feature, showing the most viewed spots of a video. I checked Chip And Dale OST from NES on 2 different videos and Zone J most viewed on both of them.
Checking another OST. Shadow of Ninja NES, KAGE on Famicom. And it has 2 boss themes as the most viewed spots. Two videos has a bit different order, so the spots are on different places in them. But that are the same music tracks:
What does it mean? The most memorable melodies? I do not know. But lets check our game – The Guardian Legend. I found only 1 video with enough views to show those stats. It seems that forest walking area is the most viewed one. Does it mean that it’s the most memorable music from the game, or is it most impactful, or do people like it the most? What do you think?

Harmsing recorded a great jazz music cover on the corridor 5,6.
He had a contest year ago and as a prize he suggested he would make a music cover of the choice. How lucky we are that the winner was one of the game’s fans. He asked for the corridor 5,6 music.
And here we go, a year later the prize is ready.
The winner is very happy. And so we are!

This tune was created for C64 computer somewhere in July 1985. And you know what? It’s earlier than Super Mario Bros. released.
The techniques used in the song are shared with NES. There were some composers who did similar. Codemasters games come to mind and also Tim Baldwin and Jeroen Tel.
The Rob Hubbard’s – “Thing on a Spring” (C64, Commodore 64) sounds way superior than 1985th music of the NES.
Music chips were different on C64 and NES. I think the ability of C64 to play any type of waveform(square pulse, saw, triangle, noise) on each of the channels was so much better than the NES chip that had each channel for each type of waveform.
I wish NES/ Famicom had the same thing where each channel could play any type of waveform. That would lead to much more advanced and interesting music on NES/Famicom.
Lets go!

I am a music lover. Konami brought many cool games and music in it. Castlevania became a classic and has a lot of games in the series. Vampire Killer is a very definitive tune for me as I heard it in childhood in the Vampire Killer on MSX. I did not owned MSX. It was my friend’s mom who worked at some place with computers and we sometime went there and played.
That’s such a great idea to gather all versions of the song in one place. I could not imagine there were so many. This song doesn’t even need covers because there are so many(50+) official versions of it!
