OHMAN. Thank you so much. I'm sure I'll be listening to them non-stop for the next week. XD

So I've made requests about these games before, but am still really anxious to see something come of them! I just recently got my hands on a copy of Gradius II: Gofer no Yabou (also known by its European name, Vulcan Venture) for the PCE/Turbografx (as opposed to Gradius 2; weird hiccup in the series), and I am simply giddy about the music. The tracks from the first two stages, Burning Heat and Synthetic Life, are simply outstanding, and overall, the music in the game is fantastic. And of course, I've always adored the music from the SNES port of Gradius III since I was young, particularly Fire Scramble, Mechanical Base, as well as Uncharted Territory, all of them getting a frequent listen on my iTunes. It was, however, good to finally see some submissions for Gradius III in the past year. But one thing I'm surprised about is the lack of R-Type remixes. I've always thought that the music from that series, whether it be from the original (Arcade/Turbografx), Super R-Type (SNES), R-Type II (Arcade), or R-Type III (SNES), was absolutely amazing and well-written, and very deserving of remixes, and although djpretzel's remix of Solitary Flight from Super R-Type was pretty awesome, I crave more. So much more. I think the music from these shmup legends are being overlooked, and these great tracks deserve to be transformed into equally great remixes. I'm hoping to see some awesome mixes of these in the near future!

Ohman, I've always hated the main Battle Theme to the point that sometimes I avoided battles just so I could continue to enjoy better music like Tyran Castle. But this, THIS...this brings the song to justice. Incredible work from all angles, a virtually flawless remix, you certainly turned a lusterless, forgettable track into something infinitely memorable. Great work!

THANK YOU!! It's about damn time someone made a Gradius III remix! I've been posting on the request boards hoping someone would finally make one. >_< But aside from that, this is an awesome track, and really brings back age-old memories of blasting apart gigantic space plants. Great job!

I'm actually kinda shocked there wasn't much of a selection for Gradius III remixes. Songs in particular I'd love to see redone would be Fire Scramble (stage 5), Mechanical Base (2nd to last stage), Uncharted Territory (last stage). A few other requests would be tracks from The 7th Saga, battle music in particular; the music from the 1st level of R-Type III: The Third Lightning; and I'd also like to hear some kind of epic, maybe war-like remix of the Dark World Theme from LoZ: A Link to the Past. I'd really love to see some of these put up on here! Please look into them. Thanks.
