- Here's another one from Ninja Gaiden, The Masked Devil theme.
I had actually started working on this one about a year ago but since the entire theme revolves around some repeating patterns I never felt there was enough substance for a proper long cover with it. Getting the hurdy gurdy sort of changed that altogether though so I decided to dig out my "old" draft and see if I could flesh it out and use the new toy. I started from a simple background accompaniment on the hurdy and then added the little melody hook in the middle of the arrangement . Then I though, heck, why stop there ? So I went out and fleshed it out even more and added as many harmonies on just as many different instrument and ... well here's the end result :)
I love when things like that happen, completely unexpected and exciting to work on.

I can't stop coming back to this one. Best rendition ever of a great but relatively simple loop made mindblowingly awesome. Just fricking perfect.
Coolest accordion ever btw.
aaaw dude. that's nuts. thanks so much for the support. this is huge

Hope you'll enjoy it and don't forget, in order to grow, the channel desperately needs your support on Patreon ;)
you've done a splendid job; the way u handled it was the best way for such simple tunes, I call it 'progressive' . it left us all wanting more.
Great job, man. Thank you.
Great job (as always). It always amazes me how well the old 8-bit tracks sound when played by skilled musicians with real instruments.
Truly a masterpiece. Thank you.
you can't touch music but music can touch you....
now, that´s an artist right there
Dude, you KILLED it on this. Gave me goosebumps. Another amazing cover, my friend.
This is incredibly impressive - ty for sharing this. I always enjoyed this track / sequence in the original game.
A good introduction for the Gurdy, I liked the 'drop' at 1:22 (or whatever the correct music terminology is) before it starts playing.
Wonderfully enhanced the emotion this theme had from the original game
Wow. This sounded so otherworldly and amazing. Great job, Ollie!
OMFG, I have been following you for many years, but I missed this gem. So many memories with this theme.
I grew up playing the first Ninja Gaiden on the NES, I remember loving the entire soundtrack and the overall atmosphere that the game was going for. It is also kind of heart breaking because I was a kid with a teenager sister. A few friends of her came to our home and one of her friends had this Cartridge and borrowed it to me. This sister's friend passed away shortly after, like 1 year later, very young age due to hart problems :(.
So I still hold the cartridge even if he wasn't my friend and barely knew him, but I know that my Sister was her friend for a reason. And I finally beat the game when I turned 21. So many memories came by with this song haha.
whoa! that hurdy gurdy
This is awesome, but I got vibes more of "Cover'd-up Ol' Rascal" (Masked Devil, but in southern American)
I know I'm late but I just found this masterpiece, this needs an extended version! So beautiful
I'm from Brazil and I played Ninja Gaiden on the Arcade. It's so good, 30 years later, to be able to listen how really beautiful is Masked Devil. Thanks for reviving such wonderful (and "soundly"improved) memories from my childhood!
Nostalgia train hitting hard, this is such a good cover. Great Content as usual
The "build up" in this cover is just amazing. It gives it such a powerful vibe.
Good job at taking a relatively simple song and making something so grand out of it. The part at the end were the percussion ends just gave me goosebumps.
One of the best NES songs ever! When I was a kid I would sit through the Dr. Smith cutscene just to hear this song and the Foster scene just so I could see the parachute part and the temple lol
I love this piece so much already... it is hard not to play it several times in a row :) You're really making the best of these epic tracks... Looking forward to hear more Tecmo renditions!
Another BANGER from Ollie!! Yo dude, the string intrument in the very beginning and the wind instruments at the end gave me the butterflies. Props my man! Taking a shot of Jamo in ur honor bud! Cheers!
Yooo, this made me start whipping out Ninja hand signs! Ive been a Ninja Gaiden fan my entire life, thank you so much for this, it's absolutely amazing!
Love the hurdy gurdy! Yet another masterpiece of acoustic video gane music, and another instant favorite - bravo!
This song not only gives me the goosebumps but it inspires determination. I can't stop listening to it. I love all ur music Ollie and i like some songs bc of nostalgic bias. But this one i think is ur masterpiece. So amazing that I am failing here to describe how perfect this is as a song and the feelings it produces. Bravo Sir, Bravo!!👏👏👏
One of the best covers I've ever heard. Most of covers I find of videogames or any other media are just metal covers and they completely destroy the original feeling of the original theme, song, track. You didn't, you did it better.
Aye my favourite ninja gaiden song! Also damn that hurdy gurdy tho
Merci !!!!
ah mais merci a toi une fois de plus :)
@@banjoguyollie Glop job ! 👍🙏😉
Man, then again, I got hit so hard by the nostalgia train, fantastic and exquisite execution as always Ollie. ❤
Man, we were spoiled for art quality in those old games. What a generally great soundtrack. I picked up Contra again recently and it blew me away that it sold for $40-$60. And yes, excellent rendition.
holy this is awesome ! there's nothing that I can yabadabado to recreate such performances !
You managed to take something simple and find a way to extend it and make it even better. Bravo man
Love your work man big up from north africa land of amazigh people ⵣ
So much awesome tracks from the NES trilogy.
That one was not the most spectacular in my memories, but it's pleasant to see what you did in order to demonstrate your talent with multiple instruments !!
In itself the original music was a beauty, and you turned it into a masterpiece. Congratulations BanjoGuy. it looks like an 8 bit piece of music turned into High Definition. Thanks Friend for your Contribution.
A wild hurdy gurdy appears!
Beautiful job with this song. It's one of my favourites, you did it justice.
This is easily the best tune in Ninja Gaiden. I don't know why I love it so much but it always stuck with me.
I didn't know your channel until another streamer I follow played this video when beginning a live stream (crediting properly, so here I am). AMAZING work! You're really incredible, man!
Holy molly! This is an amazing cover!
Man, I have played this several times, enjoying it each time more and more, I loved all the additions you did to elevate the track to a new level. The original was repetitive true, but yours keeps building and rising till the end. Thanks for sharing.
awesome nicely vives thx mate, like many used play ninja gaiden
Amazing work, especially with your additions. Hit the right spot, unique and emotional.
Видео уже больше года и все еще нет ни одного минуса - это очень редкое зрелище. Мое почтение автору.
Увы, но уже есть(
I can't believe I missed this beautiful song, amazing work, great ensemble of intrruments harmony, your music always have the perfect feel and personal touch that makes it unique .
Ninja Gaiden music is amazing in all the nes trilogy and somehow people only remember the first game tunes for the most part. I love the songs in the third game: the intro, that has a complete different feeling on each part to add to the storyline gravitas. The desert song on the second level is also terrific, but among all I think the music for the water cave in level 3-2 just blows my mind, I think there's a lot of meat for a talented musician like yourself to elevate those chiptunes into musical bliss 👌😌
Discovered this channel because I got an ad on an AVGN video? What?
Anyways im glad I found it. This is straight fire. Keep it up.
¡Que chingona 👏🏽🙌🏽😃!
Ollie busted out the hurdy-gurdy for this one!
You are now my living playlist in the car ... thanks for the memories you manage to embellish !!!
You’ve made an absolut masterpice out of a great song!
Goosebumps! Full sounding mix too! Good shit my dude!
Great!
Woah, horribly under-subbed channel! Saw an ad for your stuff and had to come subscribe. Keep it up!
Nice!
Love the hurdy gurdy!
Awesome rendition of a classic!
Badass. Adding the hurdy as both a melody and a break, excellent choice. Gives it a retro sound like the nes sound chip, but organic since it's an instrument. Very nice!
Excellent take!... sounds amazing.. great job!. 🙌🏼
Même si mon monde "nostalgique" tourne plutôt autour du CPC et de l'Amiga, j'avoue avoir été particulièrement remué par ce travail ! Un grand merci pour m'avoir fait vibrer :) (la dernière fois ici, c'était avec Turrican ^^ )
Fan FKN tastic!! This deserves waaaaaay more views. Good job man Greetz from Holland my Friend.
My favourite NES game of alltime. Great take on this sad and epic tune Ollie ^^
Wow!!! Awesome!! 😲😲😲
Whatta sound!!!
Incredible!
Excellent cover!!!
You always have some great stuff :)
Just wonderful
I just discovered your channel thanks to a re-tweet of Jan Beta. I'm absolutely overwhelmed by the amount of talented passion on display. I hope for many more great tunes in the future and will now start binging your channel for a while. Cheers, Peter
Thank you for such great video game music . You have a great gift of bringing these timeless relics to life !
Great cover as always Ollie.
Love it!!
This is beautiful. Great job!
This is so good
i love your melody, really fun.
That hurdy gurdy is an amazing addition to your arsenal, and I'm looking forward to seeing what you can do with it in the future!
Душа поет и сердце радуется
Pretty sweet!
True love
Awesome cover, loved every bit!
OMG yeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssssss!!!!!!!! Memory lane here i come !!
It's just fantastic! Very good job mate!
thank you
This confirms Ryu Hayabusa for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate... Nah just kidding, awesome job on this one Ollie, i'm a big fan of NG since i was a kid (i'm 32 right now).
Thanks for all this amazing job bro!
Masterpiece!!
Wow that hurdy gurdy makes a very special atmosphere. Loving it. And thanks for introducing and explaining it in the other video recently! Didn’t know it before! Greets from Germany
incredible
OHMYGOD Ninja Gaiden! Those games have some of the absolute best music ever!
Great rendition! As always, your musical reinterpretation is outstanding!
P.S.
if you ever do more Ninja Gaiden music, I have two suggestions/requests:
Ninja Gaiden 2 intro cutscene theme music
Ninja Gaiden 2 Act 2-2
Don't forget Ninja Gaiden 2 Act 1 theme!
