Stone McKnuckle - Machine King (original)

- Looking at my current schedule I think it's going to be very difficult to finish the arrange before next year, so I'm going to go ahead and release this. I was hoping to finish up Unlimit instead to complete the "older than time McKnuckle song" trilogy (Petrol in my Veins and Lightgazer being the other two), but that's going to have to wait. This song ain't bad anyway.
This is another hyper diaper old song written for a game that never ended up getting used anywhere, and the project file for it refuses to load up. Good thing I had an old MIDI render of it, so I rebuilt it from the that instead. It uses a ton of weirdo articulations for the leads that my normal libraries don't like so instead of rewriting it completely to play nice with my normal lead I decided to use RealLPC instead. I haven't used this thing since Dream Express, and man, it sounds way better than I remember. I remember this lead being tinny and weird sounding but that's not the case at all, it's got some oomph to it. Shreddage for rhythm guitar too, so it's all stuff I don't normally use anymore.
Anyway, hope y'all have a real merry christmas and an awesome end to the year!

This sounds like the perfect song to dodge an absolute curtain of lead plasma lasers and whatever else the enemy may be throwing
I just automatically pre-thumbs-up anythng you make, because it will definitely be epic no matter what, and always is =)
You cant give him thumbs up out of simping... let the man know where he is lacking and where he can grow. Stone knows how to take criticism and flies with it
@@sydneyhudnall3566 I can, and I will, and you can have a seat =)
@@ablestmage nah
@@sydneyhudnall3566 thumbs up doesnt mean you cant criticize... jesus... thumbs just help the algorithm, yeah if you like stone. Fuckin thumbs up dude.
@@Dexter_Solid I'm sorry where does it say that I dont like stone Mcknuckle? You should actually read what is put rather than lash out emotionality
I really dig the melody and the way it is crafted together. I've had the track on repeat since yesterday!
Still waiting for your upload btw ;>
@@StoneMcKnuckle Either tomorrow or sunday ;)
Another banger original. I follow a lot of yt youtubers and I don't usually like their originals, but yours always slap Stone. Keep being awesome.
Great stuff as usual. You have this very recognisable sound to your guitars that is found in the majority of your stuff, sounds real good! Merry xmas to you as well :)
I've had this on repeat the past couple of days, I love your sound- it's very unique and the guitars you use are amazing.
I can picture two mechs dueling head to head with this track hence the title!
Keep up the great work my guy.
Phenomenal! Another one for the history books by the legend himself. 🔥 🔥 🔥
OOOooff that's one of your primes I must say! One of the best intros ever, and the battery is killing it all throughout! I love the embellishing notes, and the shredding guitar solos, and the themes and melodies... They also come together nicely despite having different things to say. This is 11/10. Dare I say, it overshadows your other original pieces... hehe... I know you know where this is going, but speaking of shadows... Would it be an amazing new year resolution to cover shadow of the beast series?
My new new years resolution is to put my shit on Spotify, same as last years new years resolution. I'm a terrible person.
@@StoneMcKnuckle please, when you do, tell us!! I'm your fan
This sounds like music from my favorite platform games and I love it!
If that's so, you better check out the rest of his stuff, a lot of it is Mega Man remixes and stuff
@@LordSturm777 I know. That's why I'm here. Your recommendation is well accepted anyways because is a great one.
The god has returned 😩
I want to hire this guy to make music for my game, but I can't seem to make a game awesome enough to be deserving of this talent.
An original from the OG, what more could I ask for? Gonna blast this bad boy on repeat for the weekend. Many thanks, and Marry 🎄
YOOOOOO THAT BEGINING IS AWSOME
Hope you're doin' alright! I appreciate the adless free music you produce, especially given its insane quality. Whatever you feel in the mood to make, I'm sure it'll be awesome and will support you all the way, man!
I always play your songs while I'm playing ANY Flight Sim games.
Dude, I’m subbed to you and have been listening to your awesome sound for awhile now. I didn’t see these in your work and I don’t know if you do requests or not, but I would love to hear your sound with the Axelay game soundtrack! You would destroy those already great sounding songs and make something really magical and even more nostalgic! Either way thank you for all the awesome you’ve already created, and keep it up! 😁
My brain exploded, this track so so damn BLAZING !! Amazing work my dood
Merry Christmas to us! Thanks Stone!
Da best present
Hey Stone. Just thought to drop by and give you some more appreciation for the work you've done so far! I've read that you're pretty busy with housing, seeing all my mates doing the same thing I know how time consuming that can be. Whenever you're ready to work on some new tracks I'll be there to support 'em! Greetings and let's get that house of yours looking great! (P.s. have you ever considered doing something with the Megaman X Command Mission tracks? As they're already using normal instruments I was wondering if you'd like to give them your own twist.)
FINALLY SOME MORE STONE MCKNUCKLE MUSIC
I think this might be my favorite track from you, I really love this one. Even gets stuck in my head and I don't mind that at all!
This Channel never disappoints with the new jams in the years
Christmas came early this year!!! Always a good day when stone drops a vid
Dang im so late I love your originals so much even more sometimes than the megaman ones which arent really beatable
Yeah!!!!! I still listen to Chainsaw Romance still to this day! This one I can hear the Megaman influence, of course xD
this is hyper diaper for sure, thumbs up
I like how you use slides. Good stuff!
Merry Christmas, Stone McKnuckle!
old times best times~
Damn this is SSS stylish 😮😮😮
Please dont let this channel die!:(
It dies once a year. It comes back once a year too.
!!!
A new song has entered the playlist!
Don't know what exactly this would have been used for, but this would have been sweet to hear in a game, but having to 'settle' for a youtube video ain't half bad💪 Thanks for sharing and merry Christmas!
Best cardio music ever. Thank you
Adding to playlist
Like and add to playlist, the best i can do to support a song lol
@@lorenzo689 or subscribe
woooooooooooooo merry christmas to us
Merry Xmas Mr McKnuckle sir! Thank you! 🔥🤘
Christmas came early. Thank you.
Come on!!! You need to make sure everyone hears your music in all of the platforms! Facebook Instagram etc. even in 4chan ! Cuz this is epic! You are epic !!
Hell yeah
Can you please extend these songs?! They're so good that I can't stop hearing them
YOOO
Edit: Merry christmas Stone!!
This is serious boss fight quality music.
And when the world needed him the most, he vanished...
December's not far off. There'll be something. ;p
Dude, I freaking love your remixes and originals. You're awesome. I'd love to listen to a remix of Cannon Ball from you! Keep the great work going! \m/
Thanks man! I guarantee Cannonball's going to happen since I have a pretty long and decent sounding WIP on it.
I'm pumped the F up to do...SOMETHING.
your training is now complete, time to face the final boss!!!
Nice song!!! Love your work!
Hello McKnuckle! I know you were worried that I went silent for a while, but don't worry I'm still alive. Somehow. Are you all right as well? Things are going smoothly? The fuss has ceded, the dust has settled? Is it the time? eh? For something new, something fresh, like brand new Shadow of the Beast soundtrack remaster? I feel like it is!
I've been "gone" for basically as long as you, so I wasn't that worried. If I upload a new video and you don't comment, that's when I'll start having trouble sleeping.
Things are going smoothly... with my house. I basically go to work, work all day, get home, eat dinner, work on the house, then sleep. Gonna start with the interior and all the deferred maintenance on all our machines and vehicles come winter. I'll still make time for the end of the year no matter what I have to do, so there will 100% be another upload or two before 2023, but of late my "barely any free time" has basically turned into "no free time". I'm having fun though.
@@StoneMcKnuckle That's nice to hear. I wish you long and frequent periods of happiness and peace. And little bit of adventure every now and then.
I know how a house can keep you occupied, but just wait until you have a child. I now have a 2 year old boy, and its very different. Free time is... scarcer than ever, and whenever free time shows up it somehow is gone faster. Like a physics paradox, time gets heavier and slower when it's empty, and flies by when it's full of things to do.
May your time always be as heavy as you can carry without too much effort.
holy da goat
amazing
I'm not really a metal guy, but this seems to be an exception. Nice song!
Годно.
Благодаря.
WOOT
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
I Absoulutly love these type of songs in makes me go sweat mode in mhw and xenoverse 2
Bro Capcom needs to hire you to make the soundtrack for a mega man game
Please do some command and conquer tracks (red alert 1 would be a good place to start or even command and conquer the original!). Thanks Stone you rock man!
I will. :>
Cool! Is there any context for this character?
Suas músicas são top
Cool🔥
Taofliedermaus brought me here
Fuckin rips!
The picture gives me Devil Gundam vibes.
Chingón 👍
VS Neko Man
Ninja Gaiden - Unbreakable Determination
That's something I wanna see you pull off
I have a WIP of it but I don't like it very much. I'll start over on it some day.
@@StoneMcKnuckle I can't workout in the gym without your music bro , you've been pulling out such masterpieces and I worship you for it 🙌
Does anyone know what program is used to make music like this I'm making a game and I'd love to know. Also another awesome song stone!
You still alive bro? I need my dose of synth metal from you! :(
I'm alive, just very busy. There'll be some stuff coming before the end of the year.
@@StoneMcKnuckle Glad to hear! Wish You the best.
Here's a couple suggestions, all by Hyakutaro Tsukumo.
Steel of Destiny (Thunder Force V)
Hands of Guardian (Claymore)
Wirbelwind (Naval Ops: Commander)
Broken Thunder (Broken Thunder)
Night Sweeper (Hyper Duel)
Run Of The Destiny (Blast Wind)
I've heard 'em all but thanks anyway. There'll be more Tsukumo later down the line for sure. :>
@@StoneMcKnuckle holy shit
Out of all of them, which is your favorite?
@@duskshel8119 Ugh, asking the hard questions are we? I dunno, I guess Wirbelwind. The Hands of Guardian is a great song as well but I've listened to the previous two a lot more. Steel of Destiny cheats by having 500 different iterations tho.
EDIT: I'm being dumb, I'm confusing Steel of Destiny with The Justice Ray. Anyway, Justice Ray, and by extension Wirbelwind, wins by cheating.
@@StoneMcKnuckle Regarding Justice Ray, it's bound to be higher than 500 lol
Mine's going to be Steel of Destiny, by a long shot.
Though, if Tsukumo ever remixes the final boss theme of Thunder Force III (forgot the name) it'd probably be that, assuming it's redone in his usual style.
Joseph Bailey (Qwesta) has a lot of music inspired by Thunder Force IV and V. Oh, and two Justice Ray variants because clearly 500 variants wasn't enough.
@@duskshel8119 Yeah, I've heard a lot of Qwesta's work and love the shit out of it. Regardless of whether I've already heard them, I'm glad for the recommendations! I've discovered a ton of great music through the UA-cam comments section, so it's always welcome :>
Oh yeah!, Christmas is earlier this year
What happened to you uploading stuff man? It all rocks!
I'm super duper busy. I'm gonna drop some stuff soon, very very hopefully this month.
Sounds good , could be a tuneup megaman music
Really hope you release a video on how you eq rhythm guitars or add legato to the synth leads. By the way, do you use guitar rig?
I've answered this in a previous video somewhere, I'll go find it. As for the synth legato, it's either by plugin or by manually programming pitch bends. In this song it's both, all the regular stuff is done using pitch bends and the crazy high-pitched octave-wide slides are done using Sytrus.
Welp, can't find the answer so I'll write it down again.
Rhythm guitar A sent to channel 1 on the mixer, guitar B sent to channel 2. These two channels have compression and EQ stuff on them to bring out the palm mutes, and are then forwarded as follows: Channel 1 -> Channel 3+4, each with their own amplifier, and Channel 2 -> Channel 5+6, also with one amp each. I like to offset the timing on the channels with the amplifier a bit to create a fake dual channel effect for fatter guitars. Forward 3+4 to channel 7 and 5+6 to channel 8, pan 7 to the left and 8 to the right. Then forward both those channels to channel 9 where I do final post processing for the rhythm guitars, usually stereo separation/imaging, some more compression and EQ, and then finally send all of that back to the master track. I do leads in a similar way.
Every song's different so the inserts generally have different stuff on them and I screw with EQ to make sure I'm not flooding the soundscape, but this is the general gist of what I do for every single song.
EDIT: Oh, and yes, I do use Guitar Rig. I have a bunch of different amps but Guitar Rig is my go-to.
@@StoneMcKnuckle oh so your guitar process is a manual version of the amp cab ir blender feature in Heavier 7 Strings!
Gives me some real nice megaman x vibes.
hello, I have a channel of fights of mortal kombat movil, in the last video I put some of your songs (your music is fantastic). Can I upload the video or will I have copyright problems?
sorry if the reading is messy, use google translate
go ahead and upload, just put a link to my channel in the video description or say the music's from or whatever
What VSTs do you use to achieve such amazing sounding guitars?
Normally it's Prominy V-Metal for both lead and rhythm, but in this one it's RealLPC for the lead and Shreddage 2 for the rhythm. The only fancy VST I use for the mix is isotope ozone on the master channel.
Since I first started bugging you about this:
I got married.
My mother got cancer.
Opened up my own business.
The pandemic happened
Got a chid.
My mother got cured of cancer.
I moved to another city.
A war started.
I shut my business down, became the lead developer in another game dev company.
Scientists detected two black holes merging.
So... considering all of these would you please kindly reconsider the possibility of making shadow of the beast soundtrack remix?
Yes. I'll consider it. Glad to hear your mother made it, cancer's an asshole.
You should do a cover of marvel vs capcom onslaught character
please tell me you're still somewhere, shredding away, working on the next big banger?
Kinda, yeah.
has the song is sonic 3- final boss snappleman. but your improved vercion.. Please!!!!!
I get megaman x vibes from this ngl
Can you do “One Must Fall” sometime?
Yes, when the project file doesn't sound like crap. I've tried it twice and failed, but I'm not about to give up yet 'cause the OMF title theme is one of my favorite tracks of all time.
@@StoneMcKnuckle It will be well worth the wait I’m sure!
McKnuckle would you like someone you could rely to play with you, and collab. Im looking for someone really talented that I can try to impress, and play for them and with them. I would start by learning a part you want me to do. To ease for you, and you could enjoy sitting back and having my part.
Sounds interesting. Drop me a mail at stonemcknuckle@gmail.com, maybe we can work something out.
@@StoneMcKnuckle You got it, I can send you a mail now. Ill send a introductory letter, then work on a piece for you and send it. Thx mr. McKnuckle.
Hey wend are you going to make a remix of Chill Pinguin them for Mega Man X?
It's coming, but no ETA. I had a catastrophic hardware failure which set me back a bit, and I wasn't exactly churning content out even before that happened.
OK, thanks
do you sell sheet music?
u call my music sheet bro say that to my face
No, I don't. Sorry.
@@StoneMcKnuckle that's ok, i can earball it.
Did you stop making songs??!
Nope, just derping with my house and stuff.
@@StoneMcKnuckle Oh ok, I just noticed it's been a long time. You have the best megaman remixes I've ever found
hey bud, u doing ok?
Yep! The house just eats all my free time right now.
Write the next music for Megaman X9 please
mad love king.
