Metroid Music - Surface Of SR388 (Synth Cover)
Metroid II on Gameboy is the first game in the series I ever played.
I'll never forget that feeling of being all alone on a creepy alien planet and being in awe of the size of the world and amount of exploration. This tune is the first you hear when you start the game on the surface of planet SR388 - the soundtrack gets a lot weirder and creepier as you descend into the depths of the world.
Here's my tribute to the Metroid game that started it all for me:
This is a live arrangement, all sounds are performed simultaneously. I use a lot of layering, delay and reverb to achieve a big sound with this limitation. If you wanna find out more about my arrangement process, check out this Ridley tutorial from a couple of weeks ago.
