It is clearly divisible by 4 without any "stutters", so I would say it's 4, 8 or 16 beats. Whichever unit was used in the score isn't relevant though. It is a very fluid piece harmonically and tonally though, so it sounds sort of like an irregular rhythm as the progression is sort of blurry.
My god! That rendition of the Moon level theme is on whole different level to an other cover I have seen. I love how this guy is a fantastic bassist as well as a guitarist, alot of others would just play root notes but I am very impressed with this.
Um sir. This video has single handedly become the greatest guitar video I have ever seen in my life. Thank you so fucking much. This is my favorite video game of all time.
Disney made a wise choice hiring capcom to develop their nes games. Ducktales is hands down one of best nes games capcom has ever made, especially the music.
People who go on about the Moon theme and ignore the rest of the music probably didn't actually play the game and just read about it in website features etc. The entire soundtrack is stellar, and the Amazon theme has always been my favourite xD (especially the Remastered version)
Wandered in, listened, realized you actually look like you're having fun doing this stuff and it sounds pretty damn awesome, decided I like you: Have all my likes and a sub, good Sir. Carry on!
I showed this to my dad and he noticed that some of the progressions are very similar to some of Joe Satriani's songs, which makes this song all the more awesome haha.
By far the best video game metal cover I've ever heard. I like how you respected the original songs, you didn't change them much, just enough to make them sound great as metal songs. Candy for the ears, thank you!
Yeah, how dare the man put some energy into his work. It's what sets him apart from a lot of other UA-cam musicians - dude actually looks like he's genuinely enjoying what he's doing.
What!!!! You didn't!!!! I loved this show! Kids today just completely missed out on all the amazing Saturday Morning Cartoons, The Disney Afternoon cartoons, and anything else that's 90s and later. Like Johnny Quest, Speed Buggy, Top Cat, Dudley Do Right (all Hanna Barrera cartoons) . Heck, even the Gummi Bears and The Snorks!! Awesome job dude!! Oh Childhood.. Where did you go?!? /cry
Over 9 years now, and I still listen to this on almost a monthly basis. Best soundtrack interpretation I've heard in any genre, and one hell of a soundtrack to begin with!
I was jamming out to the entire thing, and then that Transylvania one hit and I was like "HOLY SHIT!!!!!!" I have never heard anyone do that and make it sound great like that!
This is one of my favorite video game cover songs ever. I have listened this so many times but what's best, it's also my daughters favorite song. She's only 1,5 years old and she goes absolutely crazy when I even start humming Duck Tales theme. If I start humming it accidentally, It means immediately that I need to open UA-cam, start playing your video and dance around our apartment with her. It's so fantastic. Great job and thank you for this great cover.
I didnt expect that i will find a person to cover the songs from ducktales on electric guitar..but yes it happens finally!thanks for the great cover and the awesome memories you give me while you playing
I imagine that if you played in a live concert you'd stop after the boss battle theme and make it seem like you're done or the lights would go down. Then at 5:20 that opening section of notes would make the crowd go nuts
This was ducking awesome. A quack of good medley. I cane't believe how good this is, pure gold. A hurricane of awesome, a duck blur if you will. Listening to Duck Tales, just... Woo hoo.
F-ing moon. Every other song from this game are examples of okay video game music... but somehow... Moon is a meteorite of pure musical enlightenment that crash landed on earth inside the composer's soul. And this weird kid, whoever he is, has a tiny, but perfect, spark of that original madness deep within him. Perhaps Moon's Meteorite and the Ducktales composer made love for 1000 days and this kid (and 999 dragonflies) were their offspring. Galactus Approved!
My God! I love the enthusiasm. You act like their isn't even a camera there and just look like your having a great time rocking out to your sick guitar medley
I seriously considered that you'd do this since it easily occurred to me playing it and watching your stream that this music is unbelievably good for its time. Good choice man.
Ok, this cover is more than awesome, it's freaking unbelievable how you nailed each and every track of ducktales. You should try to make music covers for indie titles like starbound! You got amazing talent and your accuracy is really impressive. I recommends your channel to any gamer, new or old school that I know!
This was a game my cousins and I would always play during holidays. Literally one of my favorite games of all time, thanks so much for this Jules. You da man.
That Moon theme is the best thing ever.
it's been my ring tone since months ago. sometimes I let the phone ring just to hear a bit of it.
probably because it was written in 15/8 time signature
Lawrence Chan it's not.
RedTriangle53, what's the time signature then? 15/16?
It is clearly divisible by 4 without any "stutters", so I would say it's 4, 8 or 16 beats. Whichever unit was used in the score isn't relevant though.

If you don't tear up at 5:20, you cannot be trusted. It's just so damn beautiful
Especially if you associate it with Della now.
Still one of the best medleys of all time on UA-cam, 10 years later.
5:24
Oh right that's why I clicked this link in the first place :D
Whoever wrote the moon theme is a genius. Love it. Great vid, thanks for the upload.
Hiroshige Tonomura if you wanted to know.
5:42 is my favorite part of this, just the way he starts that part of the moon theme was amazing
The moon theme gives freaking goosebumps, awesome! 😎👍
This may be literally the best thing to ever touch my ears.
My god! That rendition of the Moon level theme is on whole different level to an other cover I have seen. I love how this guy is a fantastic bassist as well as a guitarist, alot of others would just play root notes but I am very impressed with this.
The Bass sounds amazing.
Everyone going off about the Moon (yeah its great) but are we gonna ignore the rest of the themes? My fav is Transylvania at 2:40
Definitely a good jam.
My fav is the intro and boss battle
That pick slide at the beginning of Transylvania makes it rock at least 20% harder.
Um sir. This video has single handedly become the greatest guitar video I have ever seen in my life. Thank you so fucking much. This is my favorite video game of all time.
Disney made a wise choice hiring capcom to develop their nes games. Ducktales is hands down one of best nes games capcom has ever made, especially the music.
Glad that tracks OTHER THAN the Moon theme got some love!
I love how this dude is so into his craft.
Loved the moon theme ... A LOT
No shit
People who go on about the Moon theme and ignore the rest of the music probably didn't actually play the game and just read about it in website features etc. The entire soundtrack is stellar, and the Amazon theme has always been my favourite xD (especially the Remastered version)
Your arrangements stand out from the rest for being really inspired and different enough from the originals. Thanks for the great material.
Still coming back to this. You were always a big part of my childhood. I hope you can someday understand what you mean to us.
Wandered in, listened, realized you actually look like you're having fun doing this stuff and it sounds pretty damn awesome, decided I like you: Have all my likes and a sub, good Sir. Carry on!
He doesn't read his comments sadly
I think the only reason that most of came here was just for the 5:20 mark... and fucking Hell, you did not disappoint. That is epic.
That little flourish at the end there really makes the medley.
NES games had the best music, and that moon level song is ICONIC, Cheers !!!
Take a look of Draconus by Atari. Metal version
I showed this to my dad and he noticed that some of the progressions are very similar to some of Joe Satriani's songs, which makes this song all the more awesome haha.
you just can't listen that without checking all the other videos, amazing !! ! ! ! ! ! !
By far the best video game metal cover I've ever heard. I like how you respected the original songs, you didn't change them much, just enough to make them sound great as metal songs. Candy for the ears, thank you!
5:35 That smile, I do that every time i hear that beat. Grinnin' from ear to ear. Awesome music my friend!
Moon Theme. So much memories
This makes my hair stand up from my hairline to my feet. Wonderful job dude.
So many people love the moon theme the most but i love the transylvania the most. Well played cover.
Honestly what makes this even more awesome then it just being a duck tales cover is that it has the feeling of being in a 90's video game.
This... OMG! I almost cried tears of joy from the memories.
Good times...
Moon Theme is amazing.
Love the songs, covers... the cheesy dancing, smiling, pseudo laughing I could do without
Yeah, how dare the man put some energy into his work. It's what sets him apart from a lot of other UA-cam musicians - dude actually looks like he's genuinely enjoying what he's doing.
You always look like your having so much fun when performing these tunes. Keep up the good vibes, the world NEEDS it.
Yeah, now I remember things too. Thanks for the souvenirs, from France.
Well, i have permanently damaged ears now from blasting your sweet tunes through ear buds for the past two years, worth it %100
You have done my childhood justice. Thank you for not ruining the Memories. (y)
I know everyone always raves about The Moon theme as a video game classic, but you just made it SO much better!
I've got the remastered version and I'm loving every minute of it!
Wow... you really nailed the true essence of the Moon theme man, really great video
6:58 teared up here
I can't stop crying and messin' myself. Awesome!
Got to be one of the most underrated soundtracks of all time. This thing is a masterpiece, and your cover--as always--does not disappoint.
The bassline from Amazon starting at 1:46 is awesome! :D
Greetings from Germany. Love your videos ;)
Probably my favourite Family Jules video.
when the screen turns black for a couple of seconds we all know what time it is GOD MODE ACTIVATED
Hum.. Pure epicness. Thank you !!
man u just had me revisit my childhood with awesomeness...i would to play duck tales again but with your music version !!!
I came for African Mines and wasn't disappointed. I only wish it were a longer section.
FJ7X + MOON THEME = I JUST CAN'T.
F**K YEA that bass solo at 1:46
Fit in perfectly, dude, nice.
EDIT - Sick Bass work through all of Amazon, really.
What!!!! You didn't!!!! I loved this show! Kids today just completely missed out on all the amazing Saturday Morning Cartoons, The Disney Afternoon cartoons, and anything else that's 90s and later. Like Johnny Quest, Speed Buggy, Top Cat, Dudley Do Right (all Hanna Barrera cartoons) . Heck, even the Gummi Bears and The Snorks!! Awesome job dude!! Oh Childhood.. Where did you go?!? /cry
+Ghrimvixon There's tons of good shows on today too.
You can tell he was having a great time with this
Let's be honest, you guys were only here for 05:20 ;)
nehhh
I always listen to this for the intro
Here for the Amazon one, didn't see anybody else do it on an electric guitar.
0:25 and 5:20
Heh! 025 | 520
That song is overrated if you ask me. It's certainly not a bad song but the entire soundtrack is fantastic.
This will be the video I show to people when I introduce them to your channel.
The Moon is awesome, but the Main Theme is the best.
The Moon gives me chills. Every time.
Over 9 years now, and I still listen to this on almost a monthly basis. Best soundtrack interpretation I've heard in any genre, and one hell of a soundtrack to begin with!
I knew the Moon cover would sound awesome, but that Transylvania cover caught me by surprise! So badass!
I was jamming out to the entire thing, and then that Transylvania one hit and I was like "HOLY SHIT!!!!!!" I have never heard anyone do that and make it sound great like that!
The African Mines, while being often misregarded in the original soundtrack, is really awesome with real instruments.
Dat moon
Thanks for the memories. I love that old show.
I couldn't resist and sang along at the beginning. And I know all of you did, too!
Transylvania and the Himalayas are life changing when you cover them, haha. So excellent!
The transitions are seamless.
This is one of my favorite video game cover songs ever. I have listened this so many times but what's best, it's also my daughters favorite song. She's only 1,5 years old and she goes absolutely crazy when I even start humming Duck Tales theme.

Great job and thank you for this great cover.
Staying with the retro feel...Dude that was rad!
I'd be lying if I said this didn't bring a smile to my face. Bravo Jules!
I didnt expect that i will find a person to cover the songs from ducktales on electric guitar..but yes it happens finally!thanks for the great cover and the awesome memories you give me while you playing
One of the greatest games of all time.
It seems every time I go on UA-cam I have to watch this it's so addictive mainly cause its so f**king awesome
After hearing this piece of art, it’s extremely urgent a remake of that game
This happened almost 10 years before, check out Ducktales Remastered.
God why is the moon theme one of if not the most epic video game stage themes ever. Especially when played like this
Probably one of my all time favorite soundtracks, just amazing music for it's time.
I imagine that if you played in a live concert you'd stop after the boss battle theme and make it seem like you're done or the lights would go down. Then at 5:20 that opening section of notes would make the crowd go nuts
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS COVER FOR YEARS YOU THE MAN JULES
This was ducking awesome. A quack of good medley. I cane't believe how good this is, pure gold. A hurricane of awesome, a duck blur if you will. Listening to Duck Tales, just... Woo hoo.
Amazonia theme sounds so fucking awesome !!!
*Amazon
What am I doing? This is a 7 year old Comment
That was freakin' awesome!! Rad, man. I really wasn't expecting that.
Amazing!!! One of my fabourite games of NES, so much nostalgia :')
8 years old, and me and my best friend played the crap out of this game. Good times!
Thanks for the walk down those memories. Via metal!
Finally the rest of the game's soundtrack gets covered!
This is probably the funnest video you made. Totally captured the games feeling. Awesome!
I get chills every time I hear this
This literally sent chills down my spine. another fantastic video.
I am very glad to see a great guitar player without super sized ultra long fingers. There is hope for me yet.
Yeah I came for the moon theme but Jesus dude you killed that bass at 1:46! Well done!
Talk about GODLIKE!!!. Such an awesome medley of one of my favorite NES games. X-D
I just came in after a horrible day at Uni and you have really perked me right up man. Thank you so much. It was amazing as always :D
F-ing moon. Every other song from this game are examples of okay video game music... but somehow... Moon is a meteorite of pure musical enlightenment that crash landed on earth inside the composer's soul.

I hate people like you. If youre going to cuss, then fucking do it
herp derp
You are dumb.
I'm calling your house to tell your mom about your bad behavior.
SHE LIVES WITH ME I DO NOT LIVE WITH HER
"Ok"? Theyre all good. Moon theme is a little bit better though.
Wow, this takes me back. Love this one, mate!
I have no words to say... truly amazing...
My God! I love the enthusiasm. You act like their isn't even a camera there and just look like your having a great time rocking out to your sick guitar medley
I am so pumped to get home every Tuesday for a new cover! Fucking nailed this Jules, awesome medley!
I seriously considered that you'd do this since it easily occurred to me playing it and watching your stream that this music is unbelievably good for its time. Good choice man.
holy cinnamon buns! "the moon" part really got to me. love your vids!
Ok, this cover is more than awesome, it's freaking unbelievable how you nailed each and every track of ducktales. You should try to make music covers for indie titles like starbound!
You got amazing talent and your accuracy is really impressive. I recommends your channel to any gamer, new or old school that I know!
Can't even tell you how many times I've listened to this
This was a game my cousins and I would always play during holidays. Literally one of my favorite games of all time, thanks so much for this Jules. You da man.
Ok, i uploaded the mp3 and listened it. I have to say that i love you Jules. THANKS
