It Is My Sworn Duty

To share this kind of stuff with you. Still Alive as played by Mario Paint composer.

I don’t care if it’s old. This is full circle gaming nerd-dom.

Aw hell, we can’t stop there! Zelda (and FF below the cut)!

Zelda!

FFVI!

I prefer more limitations here, it really challenges the arranger think about the piece and pick the essential elements. There’s no thought required to just chop everything to quarter notes and ship it.
Tyson of the NW July 23, 2008 at 10:59 am: That is a bit humbug’ish Clayton. But if it isn’t what floats your boat, eh. Personally I enjoy it. But then again I really enjoy the videos where people make music with custom levels (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xz0PaPpmGa8)
