Blaster Master - "Radioactive Decay" (Boss Themes 1 & 2 remix)

[@MinnesotaCouchpotato]

I really like this remix. Do you have an account on Bandcamp or somewhere that I could buy or download the song?

[@sykodx469]

This particular remix has not been uploaded by me anywhere, other than here on KZbin. I was in the process of completely redoing this song from the ground up, so that I may upload the audio here and to my Soundcloud account (which has just VGM remixes + remixes I made when I was briefly posting over on Dwelling Of Duels). Unfortunately, my ability to record videos and upload to any platform has been quite severely limited as of late. Until I can set up something new to curtail that, what is on this channel and what's over on the Soundcloud is all that is currently available for VGM remixes. Feel free to go check out what's there, if you haven't already. And thanks for giving my remix your attention for a few minutes. soundcloud.com/rifftus

This is the greatest thing ever made by a human.

[@kimmolaine8069]

Nice, a metal version of game music that is actually metal

[@tgtterrorizor3407]

The beginning of this sounds like something you'd hear just before a showdown.

I'm really liking this. Best Blaster Master music remix I've found so far :) You paid attention to detail and each instrument is really tight. Btw, I love the simple pics in your video and the way that you explained what you're doing and how you responded in the comments. I'd like to see more of your work and hope to see more on your channel!

[@sykodx469]

I appreciate the kind words, man. I do what I can with what little time I get for myself. Unfortunately I cannot promise that I can make/upload videos any faster than I have (especially game remixes) but I am always trying. And I promise that as soon as something new is completed (have a few things in the works, aside from finishing the redo of this), it will be here for others to enjoy.

I am liking the guitar style. Reminds me heavidly of the late 70's to mid 80's. Hmm... I would have to say the guitar style also reminds me of a few songs from the movie Silver bullet. anyhow good job, been a fan of BM since I was a kid back in the late 80's.

[@kimmolaine8069]

I agree. This is really a metal version of the songs, instead of cheesy synths and Jackson guitars. Reminds of early 80's speed metal the most.

[@sykodx469]

Thanks very much for the kind words man. And spot on comment about the 80's speed metal. I don't know if I'm as talented as the bands that came from that time/scene, but I do look to them for tons of influence, for sure. :)

[@MrZanthiel]

Metallica comes to mind. Also Megadeth. :)

[@SwordsmanOrion]

Wow this sounds great! It sounds just like something straight from Metallica's Kill Em All.

[@davidjellofox]

I like what you've done with the boss theme. Nice job.

[@TheCynicalFinn]

Oh bloody hell. This is mindblowingly good! Great job! The only critique i have is that the ride sound is a bit odd, but it doesn't matter that much. Keep it up!

[@Kirschkuchen18]

MAD MAAAAAX!!!!

[@Akureisenshi2]

very awesome :)

[@artb76]

I would love to see a reboot of the game with this exact music for every boss.

[@sykodx469]

If you play the 3rd game in the Blaster Master Zero series, the very last battle has a very similar idea going on there. They took the NES boss themes, mashed them together in a very logical way, and added some FANTASTIC toplines over the whole thing (far better than the lines I wrote/am writing for my fan version here). Inti Creates' musical team REALLY did that song justice with that version. Go give it a listen. It's so freakin' good!

[@SaviourV]

@@sykodx469 Indeed, INTI Creates really did justice to Blaster Master's boss themes with their arrangement for Blaster Master Zero 3.

[@GammaTheSpaceSnail]

I'm looking forward to your album! Best of lucks to both of you :)

[@GammaTheSpaceSnail]

We need an mp3! Please upload one :) I'd be happy to listen to this on my smartphone

[@Skycrusher]

Everyone saved their pet frog. Fucking rad!

[@MasterZebulin]

Did...did you just slip Ironsword into my Blaster Master without me noticing!?

[@infantrystudd]

Fucking Wicked!!!!

[@sykodx469]

Glad you like it!

[@t.cbasey6439]

Everytime I hear speed metal I just feel like running

[@sykodx469]

Speed metal definitely has that effect, for sure. Glad you dig it!

[@t.cbasey6439]

@@sykodx469 yeah man I also like Billy Kane theme London March from king of the fighters 1999 which is also speed metal and testaments theme from guilty gear X2 it's called bloodstain lineage and also the 90s Japanese xmen intro which is speed metal... it's called cry for the moon by rising
