Night in the Caves

Hey, uh…long time no see! It’s Halloween, so no matter when my last upload was, that means it’s time for the Halloween Mix of 2024! Continuing the spooky locations from 2022, we investigate caves this time with Night in the Caves!

Night in the Caves (6367 downloads )

As expected, the song features a bunch of cave themes, namely

  • Upper Brinstar (Super Metroid)
  • Underground Theme (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island)
  • Dark Cave (Pokรฉmon Gold and Silver)
  • Thwomp Caverns (Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time)
  • Gruntilda’s Lair (Banjo-Kazooie)
  • Mining Melancholy (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy’s Kong Quest)

Ready for a spooky cave adventure? Here we go, and mind your step:

Happy Halloween everybody! With some luck you won’t have to wait until next Halloween for the next song…

Sloprano Drift

There are certain times during the year where it becomes necessary to make something. Today is such a day. A day where kings are fools and fools are kings. A day where brown is the new black. A day to flush down all that doesn’t belong from your system.

And that is what today’s song is all about. I present: Sloprano Drift.

This fast track to brown town is a remix of Sloprano from Conker’s Bad Fur Day. After Technoprano and Dirty Business, this marks the third time the song has appeared in a mix – although this is the first time it actually features vocals.

The vocals are by yours truly – although I had to adjust them quite a bit, because I couldn’t get the notes right even slightly. But that’s alright, because now you get some techy robo vocals. It was hell to mix them in though.

As usual, there’s a video to go along with the song. I tried out a different format this time, trying to make it look similar to how OC ReMix presents songs nowadays:

And that’s your April Fools treat for the year, I hoped you liked it ๐Ÿ˜‰

In other news, I’ve been following my wish of making a video game, which is part of the reason for the recent radio silence (the other part is me being lazy and playing video games instead). I’m still learning and figuring out how things work, so it will still be a long time until I’m ready to show anything though. However, I am determined to get it done eventually – and a video game needs some fancy music too, so there will be a soundtrack to go along with it by yours truly.

I’m not sure yet how I’ll go about releasing the music before the game is finished, so don’t expect anything anytime soon – but there might be some sneak peeks as the release draws closer ๐Ÿ˜‰

As for other videos, there will likely be more radio silence ahead, in the absolute worst case until Halloween, but who knows – there might be one or two videos here and there before we get to our favorite time of the year. Either way, I’d be happy to see you around next time as well! ๐Ÿ™‚

Night Drive

Hey, it’s been a good while without any updates, but Halloween is a good time to give some. Turns out I’m still alive and kicking, I’ve just been looking into other things besides music lately, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t gonna be new songs – in fact, I have one here right now: 2023’s Halloween Mix, Night Drive!

Night Drive is a Eurobeat-inspired take on Diddy Kong Racing‘s Haunted Woods, which I already featured several times in past Halloween Mixes. It also includes just a little bit of Sturm’s Theme (Advance Wars) for good measure.

And here’s the video, I didn’t really change anything to the format, but you get some bouncy Wizpigs at least:

And with that, Halloween is saved! …Right?

No idea when the next song is gonna come up and what it’ll be, but keep your eyes peeled, I guess! Also if you’re into the spooks, you can check out my Halloween playlist featuring all of the past Halloween Mixes, including this one!

Happy Halloween!
