Howl of the Snow Wolf

It’s time for another new song, today we listen to the Howl of the Snow Wolf!

When making this mix, I thought about combining different themes that would fit a Japanese-themed snow wolf character, which is where the name of the song comes from. Usually I name the song after the tunes that appear in it, but this time I went the other direction. The only actual snow wolf theme in the song, Blizzard Wolfang Stage (Mega Man X6), was actually added “last minute” (not quite that drastically, but I hope you get the idea) to give the song name some sense.

The more prominent themes are Surrender Robot Dharumanyo and Transformed Oedo Castle from Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon. I don’t know if the boss theme has an actual name, I couldn’t find any reliable info on that, so I just used the name of the boss. There seems to be some consensus on that idea on the interwebz at least.

Do you know how difficult it was to find a high resolution picture of one the Goemon characters for the video? I was lucky enough to find a great-looking fan art of Yae:

There’s so many songs I started to work on…it’s gonna be difficult to decide which one to finish next.
