Super Mario Kart - Rainbow Road (Genesis Cover)

[Tex]

I was just analysing the original for chord progressions in seventh intervals. But suddenly felt like covering it.

Hey,

 

IN OVERALL

I love this. In my opinion it gives a fresh breath to the original, but keeping this vibe of SNES sound. Also, I think it's more easy to dance to.

 

ARRANGEMENT / INTERPRETATION

- The drums in 0:57 are sick

 

PRODUCTION

- Very correct YMO.

- I have curiosity, can you name some of the sounds you use? which library or synth are they from? because I like a lot the sounds you have picked

 

STRUCTURE

- It's coherent, and sticks to the original. I don't have a problem with that

 

Keep up the amazing work!

Thanks for your comments ; )

Even when I stick to the originals, I always try to make them easier to listen to in a songwriting perspective when I feel there's potential for that.

I used VOPM with synths and drums from a Genesis game called Star Cruiser and FL Studio's 3xOsc to simulate the square wave PSG channels on that system.
