Nerdcore Instrumentals 2: Dj CUTMAN + Sammus release Metroid album

It’s the second collaborative album of beats from Sammus and Dj CUTMAN. Re-worked and remastered versions of the instrumental tracks from Sammus’ nerdcore Metroid album, ANOTHER M, available here: bit.ly/1ohwo9W

A note from Dj CUTMAN:
An instrumental mix can be so much more than just a track without vocals. With this volume of Nerdcore Instrumentals, I wanted to re-create the atmosphere of Metroid with each track. To create an immersive and full-sounding experience, I utilized an army of audio processors and created a unique soundscape for each beat. I hope it makes a suitable soundtrack for deep cavern exploration and alien extermination.
