Asis Galvin – Game Over (The Mixtape)

Leave a comment

Check out Asis Galvin’s video game beat tape Game Over on Bandcamp. Featuring nineteen instrumentals and a bonus rap song, Game Over features chopped and screwed tunes from games like Super Mario RPG, Mario Kart, and Pokemon.

One of my favorite tracks on the album is a remix of Scott Pilgrim vs The World: The Game, originally written by Chiptune rock band Anamanaguchi.

The album is tightly produced, dynmatic hiphop fashion, perfect for freestyling over or just some easy listening. At only $5, what’s not to like?

Asis Galvin has also produced a Final Fantasy Remixed album and an Okami Mini-Mixtape. If you’re a fan of any of these games or simply laid back hiphop beats, head over to Bandcamp to support this man!

DJ Nerd42 – Deltron 3742

2 Comments

This post was discovered on NerdcoreNow.

Deltron 3742 is a sequel to DJ Nerd42’s “Chrono Tied” (2009) which combines the lyrics of Deltron 3030 (2000) over beats made from sampling the Final Fantasy VII soundtrack. (1997) The album explores the concept of a dystopian future (much like the game does) from the point of view of an underground resistance fighter named Deltron Zero. (portrayed by
Del tha Funkee Homosapien)

The album was produced by DJ Nerd42. All lyrics are from Deltron 3030, except that track 8 samples the chorus from Ronan Keating’s “Time After Time” and track 10 samples Nickelodeon cartoons.

Most of the instrumentals came from Lost Perception or The Specialist. The instrumental on track 9 is from DJ Green Lantern, Prinz and Kool G Rap – “We G’z” from Alive on Arrival, Team Invasion 2006. The instrumental of track 1 was produced by DJ Nerd42 by sampling the album, “Distant Worlds; Music from Final Fantasy.”

Shag – Flyule

1 Comment

I’m a big fan of hiphop, and Zelda, as it should come to no surprise for those famailar with some of my projects. Flyrule is a near-masterpiece to me. With MPC Style beat-chopping and a fresh take on the classic soundtrack, beat-maker Shag takes us to a Legend of Zelda we haven’t heard before.

This is a compilation of Zelda beats I’ve made over the past 6 months or so. This game defined my childhood. I spent countless hours surrounding myself in the game and it’s music, so it’s only natural that I pay homage to it in the best way I know how.
