Hard Drive Divinity

Hey there, long time no see! I bet you’ve been expecting some Mario stuff though, so here’s the story:

I’ve been playing the Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth games recently (I’m at Re;Birth2 right now, which is the remake of Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2) and I’ve been digging the soundtrack (and the characters…).

So while I’m still trying hard to make something for the Mario anniversary, I felt a sudden urge to do something with Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2‘s Battle Theme, Solid Park. And that was the birth of Hard Drive Divinity (named after the transformation mode). I’m pretty happy with the way it turned out. Even if you don’t know the series at all, I’d say it’s well worth a listen!

As usual you’ll find the video and download below. Want to show your appreciation? Donate!

And here’s the video, featuring Lastation’s amazing CPUs, Noire and Uni:

It’s kinda funny, I’ve been struggling for weeks now to make something for Mario’s anniversary, but this only took me a bit more than a day to make. I’ll eventually get something done next week though. (I hope…)

Let me add some words about the Hyperdimension Neptunia series while I’m at it. Personally, I enjoy the games a lot, so I’d like to give it a little shout-out. To sum it up: If you’re into JRPGs that don’t take themselves too seriously, with silly, likable characters and tons of video game references, I suggest you check out the Hyperdimension Neptunia series.

On Days Like These

…kids like you…

…SHOULD BE BURNING IN HELL.

What a nice way to start off the presentation of a new remix, right? Prepare yourself for On Days Like These!

It’s a mix featuring both Last Battle from Cave Story and (you guessed it) Megalovania from Undertale. Now these tunes certainly make for an epic mix, no? I’d definitely say so. I think it was also a good decision to wait an additional week to get everything right.

So according to Sans, you should be burning in hell, which is actually a level in Cave Story. Both games were made by one person (some help might have been involved, but stop nit-picking~), both have nicknames (Daisuke “Pixel” Amaya and Toby “Radiation” Fox) and the list of similarities goes on and on…but most importantly, both games are great and have some really catchy music.

One more fact: Although nowadays most people would think of Undertale when they hear Megalovania, the song’s origins are elsewhere, as it already appeared in a Halloween hack of Earthbound and Homestuck (I did some research but…don’t ask me what exactly that is~).

And here’s the video:

And that’s that! Since Undertale has a lot of cool tracks, I’m sure we’ll hear more of it next year.

Although I’m glad I waited an extra week to finish this song, my schedule is now kinda messed up. What to do…

Night of the Poltergeist

Happy Halloween 2015!

Look at that table…did that just move by itself? This time it is the Night of the Poltergeist and his companions, and where those are involved, nothing is as it seems!

Naturally I included tunes from Luigi’s Mansion (Main Theme) and Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon (Paranormal Chaos), but there’s also a huge portion of Wicked Child (Castlevania) and Mining Melancholy (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy’s Kong Quest) in this one, going with the trend from last year (where I included Enchanted Forest) that DKC2 tunes make a good addition to Halloween mixes. Haunted Mansion (Kirby Triple Deluxe) as the song’s intro makes the mix complete.

It made me a bit sad that I wasn’t able to include Phantom Ensemble, but on the other hand we had that a little while ago (Disciple of the Sound) anyway. Oh well!

Finally, here’s the related video, don’t forget you can donate if you feel like it:

 

And if you want some more, here’s the complete Halloween playlist:

 

And that’s that. I’d tell you what comes next, but I’m not exactly sure. There’s still some things planned, but the year is almost over already. There’s only time for three more songs before this year’s X-Mas mix. One thing I definitely want to do is something for Mario’s 30th anniversary, I was thinking something like that.
