In the midst of the night, when the moon bleeds crimson and the church bells toll, Shade Man awakens once more. This is my melodic rock/metal cover of Shade Man’s theme from Mega Man 7. Rock on!

Thanks man, glad you liked it. It naturally had a sort of jazzy feel to it, so it was tricky but fun to try to turn it into a rock song while keeping the essence of those notes there

Racing through dirt and mud, here is my rock cover of the theme of “Donut Plains” from Super Mario Kart. With roaring guitars, thrashing drums and pure SNES nostalgia, the big guns are here with a collaboration with High Z, joining forces once again to deliver a blazing double guitar solo together. Rock on!

The whole soundtrack is pretty good, I recommend you check more of them out. Not only from this game but the other Capcom versus games also have solid theme songs (some which I've also covered) That's an interesting take on my tone, and I'm glad to hear as I like that kind of sound given that it was big in the 80s. It's great that you're picking up the guitar. it's a fantastic instrument and both useful for rhythm and leads which makes it a complete instrument. It's good what you're doing to get better. If I had the best universal advice to give, it's this: whatever you do (scales, chords, improvisation, etc.) always start slow with a metronome, and slowly increase the speed once you've mastered it and played it perfectly. That way you learn well and don't make mistakes later. It's like when lifting weights, you first learn the technique well and slowly increase your strength progressively. You do the same here with your coordination and skill. You want to develop the muscle/mind connection and do so progressively without rushing the process. To answer to your question, I've played for about 11 years now. I'm self taught. Learned from watching videos and learning songs. I think I could've been better much earlier had I learned the correct techniques and did what I suggested above. Learning technique well from the beginning will save you so much time and frustration in the long run. Thanks for the words, I'm glad you liked this cover. Check out the rest of my channel if you wish to hear more of my work, or in streaming services like Spotify, etc.

Here's my rock cover of Rogue's Theme from X-Men Vs. Street Fighter. The music from this game and the other Capcom versus games is simply phenomenal. Always a pleasure to cover these themes.
