 Oh hey a good thread hiding out on the third page of PYF.

Someone posted songs remade for minor key a couple of pages back. Youtuber YAOG has a whole channel based on that.

 The theremin is one of those instruments that would be really cool to know how to play, but probably downright miserable to learn.

 The FLA cover above is fantastic.


This group has released an album with metal covers of music from Studio Ghibli movies.

 I think I've posted Hellsongs before, but I hadn't heard this one before and it's a bit different from their usual low-tempo lounge style.

I learned about Sturgill Simpson from the retrowave thread of all places, and this is now my favorite rendition of "In Bloom". Those fuckin' horns.
Sturgill Simpson is great. I'm hoping he comes to play in Europe some time.

HvB is great, I listen to this all the time:
Hildegard is great because they actually put effort into their covers, including doing a great parody of the lyrics.

There's a lot of crappy bardcore covers on youtube where someone has just taken a MIDI file of a song and played it on a soundbank of harp instruments.

I mean, this certainly fits the title of the thread, because I don't recognise the original from this at all. :confused:
The title is a bit misleading because it's a rearrangement of the intro screen music on the Amiga and Atari, not the main menu theme. If I remember correctly the C64 version of the game didn't have the intro.
