Really brought the ending credits theme to Half-Life to mind until I remembered that immortal Metroid 2 credits theme. This is amazing, it brings back memories of a not-really-incredible-but-still-good Metroid game. But seriously, the soundfonts used in the beginning make me think of Half-Life. @_@

So yeah, this is awesome. Kinda like everything else that's been coming in and giving me a need to review nearly every damn piece for the last few weeks.

The GBS-esque soundfonts remind me of those times a long time ago where I'd listen to the sound test on Game & Watch Gallery 2, only infinitely superior and with more reverb. Good times.

Edit: Soundfonts, really, or samples? I don't know anymore, it's all the same to me. Heh.

As an old Metroid fan, i'm very pleased to see more and more remixes of previous games flowing into the site ..and i'm impressed by this one .
Catchy, funky and generally very listenable track.

Good job BGC :o :D

Metroid 2, believe it or not, is one of my favorite. And yes, the credits theme is quite immortal. BGC has given this song new life. I love it. I really do.

At first, I was like "omg, is this the credits?"

And yep, I was right. This remix impressed me far more than the other one, as it had been covered much better by Ziwtra (no offense). However, I found the arrangement solid throughout the whole piece, and I thoroughly enjoyed the interpretation.

none taken. there's got to be a starting point for everyone, and "Begin the End..." just happened to be mine. (and z-man is an exceptional mixer who puts out a tough act to follow regardless) :)

Wait a second, I don't recall Ziwtra remixing the same song that BGC did. Surely they were both from the same game, but not the same song. Or at least I think so...

But anyways, I liked this song a lot... As I do with just about everything else showing up on this site these days. You did a great job on this song and it surely shows a great deal of improvement from your last release, which I also liked quite a bit.
