    This is strangely addicting. Can't get enough of it. The arrangement is sick of course. But also the video itself. The way you guys stand there, look at each other, move, get up, sit down, nod your heads, etc.. A pleasure to watch and listen.

    I never thought jazz would work with Metroid, but this is pure fire. Thank you guys so much for recreating these timeless themes.
    Also, good lord the nostalgia. What is it about his game and this franchise? Metroid takes me to places that no other video game franchise has ever taken me. Maybe it's because I grew up on the original NES game and exploring this alien planet at the ages of 5, 6, and 7 stayed with me forever in both music and imagery. It was a creepy freaking game for its time, yet I always wanted to keep exploring and go further and further into the depths of the labyrinth that was Zebes.

    Having spent hours as a kid playing Metroid and hearing the Brinstar theme looping over and over, it's seeped into my musical subconscious in ways I'll probably never fully understand. I think
    my 8-year-old self could really have benefitted from hearing some of these solos too. Great work-sounds beautiful!

    I've listened to this so many times over the past couple months.. seriously awesome audio quality (and playing of course!). People owe it to themselves to listen to this, not just on a quality pair of headphones, but if you have the means, play it on a high end sound system. The quality of this is absolutely insane! My speakers (TRYING NOT TO BRAG) are Dynaudio Confidence and honestly I am still blown away by the quality of everything here! The other tracks are equally as impressive and it's been a daily occurrence for me watching these videos. Thanks for all the hard work and quality love and care put into these! So many of us fans really appreciate being able to enjoy your gifts, so thanks for sharing!

    soooo good. watched all your vids. very nostalgic for the games and music. I could write a huge list of nes songs id like you guys to play but for know i'll just say check out and consider wizard and warriors II menu song. Has a lot of different layers to it and is complex for a nes song. It came to mind after listing to you guys.

    • @ContrabandReloaded
      @ContrabandReloaded  6 років тому

      Thank you so much, Joseph! That's a great recommendation! There's a lot going on with the menu tune. I'll add it to our list of songs to investigate for a future arrangement. Please feel free to send more song recommendations to us: contrabandreloaded@gmail.com
