It's been a while, eh? To my defense, it's been a busy summer... but autumn is upon us and I shall try to make more covers! I had problems figuring out what to cover, I happened to stumble across this Megaman song, not really one of the classics, but damn, it's hella good anyway! Comment and subscribe good people, cheers!

Thanks! I'd say that it's also one of the most "underrated" themes.

[@AKATheTitan]

Glad to see you're back in style! Definitely one of the best Megaman covers you've done so far. Have you considered adding more of your own solos to your covers, like you did with the Punch-Out!! suite? It sounded great there and I'd love to hear more of it.

[@Azgarde_]

Flawless cover. Awesome dude !

[@iSometimesWriteMusic]

The best NES Megaman music is concentrated to mainly 2 and 3, but there are a few nice ones past that. Glad I found Blizzard Man, I think it's really awesome.

[@alfr83]

Wow ! I've never been paying attention to this BGM but it rocks ! Great job dude !

[@iSometimesWriteMusic]

Thanks! My Bass VST is Spectrasonics Trillian. It's easily the best one out there.

[@AL0QVENGO]

Best cover so far!

[@iSometimesWriteMusic]

Thanks! Hmm, I kind of feel like a cover shouldn't add something just for the hell of it. If I am to create a solo with my covers it would need to fit in perfectly, which is easier said than done. Just slapping on a solo isn't the problem, but creating a really good solo that compliments the composition - that's really hard. So I rarely feel like a solo does anything good - the music is melodic to begin with.

[@CrescentGrizzlySlash]

So cool. You made me a fan of this stage theme again.

[@ravenrue]

It's been 9 years, you think you could do this again? Great job on the cover.

[@alternativeware]

Excellent dude, it sounds awesome, such a lively composition, you rule in mega man covers. So fresh it's a utopian sound.

[@ivanenhaced1751]

Amazing bro

[@M3MB3Rrr]

Perfect cover, one of the most beautiful themes of Megaman. Nice job.

[@GikasaX]

[@ajpetracci]

Well done, sir. Also... nice KILLING JOKE pic on the wall.

[@Blues_Light]

Hell yeah! I love Blizzard Man's theme so much, and this is just the perfect remix!

[@Thunderhorse706]

This is awesome, I remember this is the one Megaman NES Cartridge that I owned so I played the hell out of it. Had to rent the others from blockbuster lol those were the days... Now that ive been reminded how great a song this is on guitar. I am learning to play it tonight haha. Gj dude

[@cactuarrockman]

[@iSometimesWriteMusic]

Thanks dude!

[@guscp9]

thanks buddy, many memories come to me when i hear this xD

[@Furber216]

Megaman 6 music is so under appreciated. Thank you for doing it justice! I have yet to hear a great Knight Man cover/remix, if you're looking for any ideas for future Megaman covers :D

[@iSometimesWriteMusic]

You're awesome!

[@sammyyo461]

Nice Cover :D

My favorite too (: Thanks!

[@uulalaa5835]

Cool guitar dude. I have exactly the same one ;)

[@jonomolyneux]

Cool bane t-shirt man!

[@iSometimesWriteMusic]

I use the built in compressor in Addictive Drums for the kick. Rather than using a single compressor on the whole drum kit, I use the mastering tool iZotope Ozone 5 on the drum channel, where I use multiband compression in various degrees across the spectrum. I love iZotope Ozone 5 for mixing just as much as mastering, it has plenty of awesome features built in just that one plugin. One of the "must haves" if you ask me.

[@OmyyTv]

Like and fav, great cover :).

[@Catguy19]

I love you.

[@iSometimesWriteMusic]

Thanks (:
