I've always loved this song, especially “Part 2”, the more relaxing segment (1:30-2:47 in the original), and also those chords at the beginning of the song (starts at 0:38 in the original), do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do… I like trance music, and got an idea on how this song could fit well as a trance remix. The composition is finished and most of the instrumentation is done as well. I haven’t done any balancing, EQ, compression, effects, etc. yet. Mainly I want to get some feedback on the composition, structure, and instrumentation at first. Please let me know what you think about it, looking forward to hearing your feedback!

Made it in PRC a while back, and reworked it a touch.

Use a Youtube-to-MP3 converter to download the track as an MP3. Then Google something like "Identify song by upload" where you can upload the MP3 and see if they can trace it to something or somewhere. I did that for a few tracks back in May that I've had for over a decade and don't know anything about and they certainly solved those mysteries.

The music of the Megaman X games definitely was inspired by 80s metal and rock. Didn't the 5th game literally name the bosses after Guns N' Roses members. Anyway, I'd say the MMX games soundtracks remind me most of Yngwie Malmsteen, Symphony X and Tony Macalpine. Case in point. I think these tracks are similar in style --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
