End Credits (MegaMan 2)

For fun one day when I very first was learning laptop recording years ago I decided to learn and record a version of the credit theme to MegaMan 2.

When I mean first learning, I mean really rudimentary stuff. I hadn't yet figured out the intricacies of workstation programs like n-Track (what I use to this day) and recorded by using a setup that went as follows:

Guitar -> BOSS Metal Zone -> Smokey brand batter powered mini-amp (Marlboro Brand) -> pointed at my laptops built in microphone.

The drums were one simple look I tracked in FruityLoops I think.. If I remember correctly I was going to incorporate it into my abandoned rock opera as an intermission song..

(Get Flash to see the track player.)

And the changing seasons of Mega Man Land.

Not bad for a laptop mic!

I know that video game music reinterpreted on guitars is waaay overdone.. but in my own defense this is about 8 years old, so at least I did it when it wasn't QUITE as played out as it is now..
