A marginal refinement of knowledge on how to use effects channels over FACE!!, Deatbot Saves the Day makes an attempt at a clearer sound and plays with a few new concepts along the way. Click on the links below to download individual songs from the album.
- Message from Afar [ 2.66meg 2:54 ] - For this song I recorded my own voice and lowered and distorted it so i could sample it. I had often joked about using this line in a song and I finally got around to it. This is a really simple song, not much to it, but kinda catchy. The kind of song aliens would play to you as they're forcing a mandatory dance party.
- A Noble Sacrifice (Low BPM Mix)
(originally from Megaman X) [ 3.2meg 3:30 ] - To those of you who
remember the really old version from "The w00+ Album", this is my "version 2". The old version was my most
downloaded song for many months, even after other albums were released
after it, so here's to you guys! For anybody, unfamiliar with it, this the ending theme of the original Mega Man X.
- Palace Trance
(originally from Zelda 2: The Adventures of Link) [ 2.79meg 3:03 ] -
This is one of the first songs I made on the album, and it's also one
of my favorites. I use to not like Zelda 2's gameplay, though it did eventually grow on me, but I have always liked its soundtrack. It wasn't a large soundtrack, but what few songs were on it I liked quite a bit.
- Plumbers Underground
(originally from Super Mario Brothers) [ 1.45meg 1:35 ] - This song is
amazingly simple. It's basically just drums and bass. There is nothing technically impressive about it in any way, but it is exactly what I wanted it to be. Very minimalistic and true to its source.
- Jinko No Theme [ 2.24meg 2:27 ] - My brother, Jonah, use to write a webcomic called Jinko No. This was the theme song I wrote for that comic. The comic went on for a pretty limited time, changing artists quite frequently before ultimately stopping altogether. Though that comic stopped, he now runs a few comics at Randompiratecomics.net
- Terra (originally from Final Fantasy VI) [ 2.1meg 2:17 ] - This is the song on the world map of FF6 (or FF3 by the old American numbering system). It starts out with the military snare shuffle, comes in later with some fast drums, and finishes off with some nicely filtered slow drums. All in all, a satisfying blend.
- Last Chance to Dance [ 2.83meg 3:05 ] - This is a nice little original. I used some wasp instruments in this one as well as an old forgotten drumbeat I had made long ago. That happens sometimes. Anyway, it's a nice, fast dance track.
- Mad About Me (The Cantina Band's DJ Mix) (originally from Star Wars) [ 2.98meg 3:15 ] - This is a fairly simple remix. Got some nice heavy drums to the 'ol Star Wars Cantina song known as "Mad About Me." Overall, it's pretty straight-forward, but there's a pretty crazy part somewhere near the middle where I take the well known clip and slice it up whilst adding some crazy instruments.
- Viral (originally from Megaman X) [ 2.11meg 2:18 ] - This is one of the weirdest Megaman songs ever. It's from the third Sigma-stage on the original Megaman X. I always thought this tune was just really weird, then all of the sudden I totally fell in love with the bass-line and had an overwhelming desire to remix it. Although the other instruments don't, the main drums actually sound more like rock drums than techno drums.
- Bad Blood (originally by Ministry) [ 3.29meg 3:36 ] - An online friend by the name of Liriel requested I do a remix of this song for a theme to her comic entitled Bad Blood. The original had little to no drums in it, strangely enough for being a harder rock type song. So all drums in the song are added by me, as well as lots of crazy effects and what not.
- Return (originally from Super Metroid) [ 3.20meg 3:30 ] - This is a fast paced medley of 2 different songs. One is the slower Brinstar song and the other is the very memorable song in Norfair. This one is pretty crazy. Instruments are all over the place!
- Anyone Anyone
(originally by Dashboard Confessional) [ 2.27meg 2:29 ] - This remix was an experiment to test out an electronica/accoustic rock hybrid collaboration project between Jonah and I. The project only saw one song come out of it which I'm actually not fond of. Things never got off the ground.
- Shiro
(originally from Wolf's Rain) [ 2.69meg 2:56 ] - Wolf's Rain is an
anime from the creators of Cowboy Beebop. The soundtrack was handled by the amazing Yoko Kanno. This remix was a CoolEdit
nightmare to make since there were so many parts where the strings
would change tempo on me and fitting drums to certain parts grew
difficult. After a slow part the strings went back to a fast part, but
it wasn't QUITE the same tempo and so I had to remedy that and so on. It was an arduous and rather unenjoyable process.
