Hey guys, long time no see.

First of all, I would like to sincerely apologise for not being active for over a year and therefore, keeping you in the dark.

Rest assured nothing bad has happened to me. Simply put, I got burnt out from doing videos, trying to juggle that with my real life outside of this channel. As I don't make a living from doing these videos, I put creating VGM covers to one side to prioritise the things going on in my real life instead.

The remainder of this year however, I am going to make an attempt to at least upload a few covers. I can’t guarantee I’ll be uploading weekly or fortnightly but instead once a month in the long term, like I used to do.

I do have a few covers in the works I have been working during my hiatus. They’re almost complete, it’s just now a matter of putting the final touches to mixing and editing. I’ll be uploading one of these covers sometime tomorrow.

I also like to thank all the positive comments on my videos. Very much appreciated


Anyway, once again I apologise for keeping you guys in the dark for so long and I’ll try to upload some new covers over the following month to make up for lost time.

Hi folks,

just to let you know I am at the finishing stages of my winter themed VGM cover. I shall have it uploaded by tomorrow afternoon. I just need to make some final editing tweaks and then render the video which I’ll do when I get back from work tomorrow. In the meantime here are some clues for you to ponder as to what game it is from:

It is from an RPG game released in 1994
It is the second instalment in the franchise
Its main protagonist has appeared in every super smash bros games released.

Find out tomorrow...

Hey guys,

I hope you're all having a good holiday so far. I have two videos I will be uploading over the next week or two. One of them is another original tune I have been working on over the past few months which I'll upload tomorrow evening. Its very much a straight forward fast rocker.

The second is a winter themed VGM cover which I'll upload next week. I started working on it a few days ago and originally had intended to finish and upload it before Christmas eve, but I overestimated how long it would take to put it together, and as I am currently away for the holidays and I wont be able to finish the cover until next week.

Anyway, have a Merry Christmas and be excellent to each other.

Hey folks, hope you’re all doing good.

I realise I haven’t uploaded any videos in over 2 months. As usual life gets in the way which in turn leaves me unmotivated to regularly produce content.

However, over the past month I have been composing another original song which I intend to upload in the next few weeks. As well as that I have been working on a cover which I hope to finish either by tomorrow or Monday.

The cover in question is from the Castlevania franchise. It first appeared in the first Castlevania video game on the NES and plays on the 6th & 7th stage. I’m sure many of you know what song I’m referring to but either way, find out in the next 24-48 hours

Happy Halloween!

Hi folks,

As mentioned in my previous community post, I have been lately working on some original material. Tonight around 9pm GMT time I will be uploading one of these original tunes on this channel. This piece piece is an instrumental tune I have been working on over the past month. Stylistically the song steers in the style of symphonic metal, but there are some elements of doom metal and death metal too.

I look forward to sharing this composition with you guys tomorrow. Stay tuned...

Hey guys, just a little update.

My apologies for not uploading anything in nearly two months. Things have been busy for me during that time which has meant I have put creating content for this channel on hold for a bit. On the occasions where I have had free time however, I have been working on some original material which I plan to share with you in the next few weeks. One of these songs I have written recently over the past month. Another is a song I wrote a few years ago but have recently revisited and fine tuned it. My goal is to have these two songs recorded and uploaded within the next month. So finally you guys will get to hear some original music from me for a change instead of just covers.

That’s all from me, have a good day.

Hey folks,

Just to let you know I have a new VGM cover I’ll be uploading in a few hours. It’s from the Donkey Kong Country franchise but from a game I haven’t touched on yet. Here are some clues for you to ponder in the meantime:

The game the theme originates from was released 25 years ago
The theme plays on industrial stages in the game

Stay tuned to find out...

Hey folks,

As I have had some time off recently I have been working on another cover which I shall be uploading tomorrow evening. I managed to put this cover together fairly quickly. In the meantime here are some clues for you to ponder as to what I could be:

• This theme is from a crossover game released in 1993
• It’s one of the first themes to play when the game starts

Stay tuned to find out...

Hey All,

Just so you know my cover will be uploaded this evening when I get back from work. Sorry if you were waiting for it last night. Once again I underestimated how long it would take to complete editing/mixing etc.

Stay tuned...

Hey guys, an update for you all.

My left wrist is much better now, and can play the guitar and bass without any pain. So as a result I’ve been cracking on with that cover I was telling you about. I’ve already recorded the instruments onto my DAW, I just need to mix the audio, then film and edit the video, which I will get on with the rest of this weekend. Hopefully I shall have this cover uploaded by Tuesday next week.

That is all. See you soon...
