[@McBlunder]

13 years later and i still come back to this medley. Thank you!

[@X3MCTZN]

It's been 7 or 8 years, can't recall, but I still BLAST OUT LOUD this...so Loud, that my neighbours are preparing for siege, the dogs are getting saddled for battle, even NEW YEAR'S EVE came early just to enjoy this Omnipotent Medley !!!!

[@scottnealsmith1987]

Still here in 2024 and still the best, one of the only games I played wit my late grandad who was a legend.

[@PianoThad]

Of all the old gems I treasure from youtube, this is one of the videos that I always come back to. It's noticeable that you put your heart and soul into this project. My brother and I had a great time listening late at night after some beers. As time goes on and we get older, life sets us apart and we meet less and less. It was a very special and nostalgic moment. I can't thank you enough for that - and also for making the high quality file available for download. I wish you the very best in your life and success in all your projects, regards of it involves music or not. A very big hug and farewell from Brazil !

[@herikarai857]

Me too

[@SandroSensei]

2 years later, still awesome 👌🏻✨

[@DeanKopri]

I'm a metalhead, a gamer and a musician currently working on the orchestral Golden Axe medley, and this, sir, is a great piece of work! I remember listening to it years ago, and it still kicks ass!!!

[@dieglhix]

will check it out, just saw it on the results while looking for this one :)

[@JimHawpah]

This is in the HOF of video game medleys.

[@gruntgg]

I discovered this medley about 3 years ago. I still come to it when I need some epicness in my day. Thank you for making this masterpiece!

[@trueblue7746]

I'm still here after all these years. A masterpiece. Well done my man.

[@GSGDaveyBoy]

Still one of the finest pieces of music on YoutTube. Still listening after god knows how many years. Way to take something already incredible and smash it even further out the park. This is brilliant work. I'd pay good money for it if I could.

[@aldariel744]

Listening 10 years later.... awesome music! Golden Axe was the real shit growing up!

[@projetomascarasenferrujada7224]

Grandes e eternos heróis da adolescência! Em uma batalha épica, e eterna contra todas as forças do mal! Essas versões fazem jus à sua luta! Tks for this gold!

[@MAYUTHEUNDEAD]

FUCKING GOLDEN . . .AXE

[@mikasakvarelidze727]

😭😭😭😭😭 THIS IS AMAZING. I've left maybe 1 other KZbin comment since KZbin launched. You sir are phenomenal thank you 😎

[@CYON4D]

I can feel the goosebumps coming my way. This is THE best and most extensive Golden Axe cover I have ever listened. Thank you for making this fantastic arrangement and sharing it with us.

[@duffy123123]

@ProphetsOfAshes nice too see that you sat through the entire thing!!!!! There is just as much MIDI happening to called it a MIDI cover too haha, took a LONG time to put this together, thanks for the kind words. I'm surprised to see it has 12k views, last time I saw it was only 1k haha

[@McBlunder]

This has been a medley that has stuck with me for the last 6 years, I always come back to it. This game and this rendition means more to me than you'll ever know so I'd just like to say thank you, thank you so much for this!

[@Quill5150]

Beautiful. That's the only way to describe this medley. Thank you. This game was a cornerstone of my childhood and you nailed it to the wall.

[@grundalug2]

Many a glorious Saturday morning was spent defeating Death Bringer and those damn skeletons.

[@Quill5150]

Oh Yeah!. God was this the best hack 'n slash of all time or what? (In arcades) Have you guys played Golden axe 2 (only available on the Genesis)? If so how do you compare it to the original arcade game and it's ports to Master system and Mega drive? I think for the home systems and even comparing it the the original cabinet of the first game the sequel for the Genesis is a better game. But I love 'em both.

[@duffy123123]

Hope you can enjoy it for another 2.5 years

[@hyttennis]

+duffy123123 Still listening!

[@rollcaskett1812]

+hyttennis Me too! My third time of the week.

[@dieglhix]

+duffy123123 Have listened to this entirely, over 100 times since upload :)

[@shawncalley9994]

Golden Axe Team Serbia reporting. Happy New Year : )

[@JimHawpah]

I've been rocking to it for the past few years! Whenever I think of the Golden Axe days, I think of this amazing medley. Hold your head up high forever, champion! You do your fellow man an outstanding service. Keep rocking! \[T]/ PRAISE!

[@WisePlagueis]

I've been listening to this for seven fucking years and I still get goosebumps. Hope you're doing okay man. Cheers

[@3PiecesOfBread]

I've been listening to this for like an hour and I wish I'd been listening to it for 7 years

[@ContemporaryCompendium]

After all these years since I first heard it, this song still absolutely is the bar to which I set all other video game music. Not just remakes or covers but all game music that I hear. The way this work completely captures every aspect of the game and is able to transfer that to the listener is something very, very few composers and musicians can do, in any genre of music. This is beyond timeless, friend. I speak for everyone when I say thank you creating such a memorable and enduring piece of art!

[@l33tster]

Wow. Apparently this was one of the first videos I favourited years and years ago, and I just stumbled back on it today. Absolutely brilliant, saved it this time Goddamn masterpiece, this was my favourite game on the Sega Genesis with my favourite soundtrack of all time

I've had this mp3 for years. Haven't played it in a long while. I remenber when I discovered old game music being played by talented musicians. This is one of the finest examples of this niche. It's friday 19:00. I have a beer mug and this blasting through my speakers. Awesome!

[@Kris-ck2md]

One of my fondest childhood memories is co-oping Golden Axe 1 and 2 with my Dad. We beat those games so many times together. This tune not only captures and retains the overall vibe of the original, but builds on it while respecting the source material. Excellent, excellent stuff.

[@nerdicwarrior]

If Golden Axe ever had a movie this would be it's soundtrack!

[@ENFDO]

In fact, Conan is the movie that inspired Golden Axe (and where Sega took a lot of sound effects).

[@michaelmorar]

This is just so good . Thank you, sir, I can't even begin to comprehend the hard work and talent that's gone into this.

[@8bitpro85]

Wow this gave me goosebumps! Thank you guys for the nostalgia!

[@8bitpro85]

That's awesome I love these old games lol!

[@bino994]

This is... simply amazing. Really, there are no words. I have a hard-on for the 90's now. Thank you for sharing the dropbox!!!

[@kristyjoy]

Hi, I came here on a link from the original soundtrack. I haven't played Golden Axe in over 20+ years, but the music is still epic. Your renditions are... masterful. Amazing. Thank you!

[@DJSHaKa]

This is the result of a Golden Axe fan who is a awesome audio producer. Kudos man! wow..

[@metalkbc]

Wow it's pure gold! A true fan masterpiece!

[@Paul07791]

17:44 Ground Control to Major Tom, Ground Control to Major Tom Take your protein pills and put your helmet on...

[@NightmareWalkthroughs]

LoL

[@LDV86]

this music is totally epic, i'm really diggin it

[@muzikusan]

Damn KZbin is a strange "world" on the one hand there are stupid kids just talking shit,recording it, uploading it and getting millions of views for that and on the other hand there are people like you...great musical talents totally underrated....a masterpiece like this medley just having 98 views...poor world.... .... GREAT JOB!!(ok still not enough to express how i enjoyed listening to this) *bows down and enjoys the music*

[@ThePhobos100]

This is pretty awesome actually or maybe an understatement

[@ElAdvenimiento]

The best golden axe medley ever. A master piece, deserve more views. A Revenge of Shinobi medley with your skill shoud be perfect!

[@duffy123123]

It's super awesome that you listened in such detail, however, this is my arrangement, and nothing is "missing" as such , everything is the way I wanted it to be, and the link you posted is for C64 not SEGA Genesis :D Thanks for listening!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ArmzKiro]

God bless you 🙏

[@josecarlosmartinezmartinez36]

The best Medley on the world. It's really amazing.

[@PaulBosanova]

Had to come back again, Man this is so good!!

[@stacykeiblerslovesla]

Mad talent! It feels almost like listening to a Golden Axe movie.

[@smokemachine2322]

In awe over the amount of effort and ability put into this. 10/10 classic video game remix.

[@brianriecks8363]

I can die happy now...AMAZING!!

[@DanielAraujoNazar]

This is simply beautiful. Some arrangements remind me of Dream Theater.

[@kostykrump]

this is incredible. i cant think of anything else to say. utterly speechless.

[@Tokalafox]

I often put this on when i go to sleep, it's kinda relaxing. Hard to believe it's almost 5 years old.

[@gdreyer]

Even with limited harware resources there were amazing artists in making games. Awesome!

[@christianfarparan]

Dude keep doing what you're doing im fairly young but I grew up with this game me and my brother would play this all the time when I was young well this and contra but I feel like this is a masterpiece

[@two1001]

Benn playin golden axe since I was 9 years old and now I'm 17 and still playing I love golden axe true golden axe fan😭😭🖤

[@radoz4740]

Still epic after all those years \m/

[@marquesaurus]

I played a lot this game, and I am an Metal music fan! I have to say this is simply genial! Thank you for doing such epic medley! Really awesome!

[@Rascus75]

This is one of the best metal covers I've ever heard. Some songs from the game, like The Wilderness, lend themselves well to metal, but others don't as much, yet you still made them work really well. I'm amazed that you were able to make even the whimsical tune that plays during those sequences where the player kicks those tiny thieves to get magic potions sound badass.

[@OutletMuzac]

This is amazing. It's rare to see a classic game soundtrack remade while keeping the feeling of the original but this pulls it off and them some. Great rendition.

[@MastaGambit]

This is fucking awesome, dude! Deserves more views

[@KevinBiasci]

Absolutely impressive! Great work mate :-D

[@grundalug2]

If anyone closes it after one minute they obviously had a shitty childhood. This is great! I have listened to it twice today.

[@DCFHazardRebornChannel]

Bless you with this amazing work and the fucking feels man.... The fucking feels. Do I need to say more? Like, sit here and explain this and that and when I played it and how young I was and all the occasions and all? No, I do not. Why? Because we are many man, we are thousands, no, we are probably much more than that, and I am but one little person from all of us that have shared in the same feels all with our own collection of timeless memories :) Awesomeness overload, epicness overload, nostalgia and feels overload... I might as well close my eyes eternally on this :) I only hope that the so many others out there get around to hearing this as well. So many in our generation that grew up with this, so many that moved on, life, growing up, etc... So many that forgot that child playing along. If this could only fall across their path at some point to remind them of those days and bring back some of those memories. It would really do something special for them. I know it :) I only hope for that ;)

[@DCFHazardRebornChannel]

ps, to complete my nostalgia trip, I am listening to this (and the originals among other retro songs in a playlist I made) whilst designing finally my own retro themed platformer :) screenshot as proof of what this awesome track helped me put together (as early as it still is at the moment) - i.imgur.com/6VXHkQ1.png (zoom to proper size to enjoy the proper feel of the... PIXEL... lol)

[@duffy123123]

I want to play that game...................

[@DCFHazardRebornChannel]

duffy123123 which one? the one I am designing? O.O Kewl! :) Well I only started (this is also my first shot on pixel art so still learning things, its quite early). It seems to be something I can put together quite fast atm compared to other games I tackled, so I should have an update soon maybe even on my KZbin channel about it :)

[@X3MCTZN]

You aint alone my brave battler ...... !!! Shut up u've almost make me shed a tear the only in my entire life !!!

[@DCFHazardRebornChannel]

X3MCTZN ;)

[@omegacorn]

Seriously the most epic, nostalgic.....nostalpic thing I've ever heard! Thank you!!

[@TroySpencer-c3e]

Very cool! Good work-I remember when this game first came out! (Old dude)-The pageantry, the spirit -DT Project should be proud of you. \m/

[@Pauly421]

This deserves orders of magnitudes more views! I listen to this as I play Chivalry.

[@Paul07791]

For me, this is one of the greatest things on the internet. I know I already commented on this, but I recorded the "better quality download" ^ (from the description above) onto cassette ...bear with me... and coming out of my stereo it sounds totally mint! I played Golden Axe all the time in my youth, and still play it occasionally, already knowing all the tunes so this blows me away each time.

[@PianoThad]

Thank you very much for creating and sharing this. LOVED IT. Even subscribed to your channel. Excelent work my friend. Thank you very much again and a very big hug from Brazil ! :)

[@detjkimbell]

Damn this is amazing! A real pleasure to listen to.

[@martingrund2856]

Absolutely brilliant! Thank you.

[@gronndar]

Took my breath away when I first heard this. It still does.

[@Kharnivore2099]

Great work mate, some of my fav game compositions there and you have adapted them very well to the rock/metal style. Just what i needed at work this morning!

[@CeeOmega]

God, this is awesome! Genius at work.

[@katoman23]

I have listened it around 100 times, it's very very cool...

[@Rozmic]

I used to play this on Sega Master System, it was tough. But your tunes are EASY. Listening. :D

[@lumossir5012]

This is fantastic. I applaud you dude well done!

[@SandroSensei]

This is truly awesome sword & sorcerry 🗡🔮

[@altide8784]

Awesome work. This is just amazing

[@put_istine]

This deserves more views. Best Golden Axe performance that exists on the Internet. However, a small section missing after @07:46 . Despite this, the remarkable thing.

[@HunterXsk]

This is a treasure on youtube!

[@odeiocriaruser]

the nostalgia... too strong. god damn it.

[@ElwoodBlatch]

oh fuck it's you playing!!! At first I thought it was gonna be a midi cover medley (which is almost just as applaudable because one needs a good ear to compose a cover, playing it is the next step lol) AWESOME JOB!

[@mintydog06]

OMG 3:36 got me feeling all nostalgic, it's like it's 1991 all over again

[@Sir.Budman]

Holy SHIT!!!!!!! This is just the perfectest damn example of a cool ass thing made GODLIKE! Reminds me of the days of Golden Axe, and Conan the Barbarian. thank you.

[@DarkMoe]

One of the best renditions I've heard in a long time

[@Alvarin_IL]

Thank you, it is a very ear-pleasing arrangement!

[@pedrotenoriomendes]

Incredibly awesome!

[@duffy123123]

I'm pretty sure I got EVERY piece of music from this game included in here :D

[@JamesGadbury]

This is superb! Top notch. Thank you for sharing. Hope to hear more of your remixes.

[@cesar9058]

Epic remix, why can't I subscribe to you?

[@Pander1985]

24:42 that’s just stunning onward the fading in 🧐

[@BrunoJ3ans]

A Master Piece! Thanks God! My prayers have been answered with this song! Thank You for uploading your song! It's the best Golden Axe remix in the KZbin. I hope that in the future I can hear more of your musics Keep your good work! ;) (Now I will pray for a remix of the game "The Revenge of Shinobi" :P)

[@duffy123123]

I applauud your for listening that far into the track!!! Most people according to the insight info close the video after 1 minute haha.

[@claudiocastagnoli1733]

espectacular adaptacion sin hablar de la linda nostalgia que me causa! muy buen trubuto a la rea dorada de los video juegos

[@BloodyBay]

Now _that_ has to be the most stirring version of Battlefield that I've ever heard! If only it came by itself in a 30-minute extended version too.... ;)

[@MegaBizMan]

GET READY FOR AN EPIC RIFF IN 3...2...1... 13:25

[@meyawabdulaziz3863]

DIGITALN0MAD always loved this song it timeless in my opinion

[@l.a.8841]

always was the best song for me. thanks for the note

[@bigmez83]

the greatest one

[@ryujijitei]

I'm not going to lie, I seriously think this is an epic masterpiece up there with Symphony X's "The Odyssey" and Edge of Sanity's "Crimson." I respect you more than almost any other musician on the planet, Lee.

[@shayadar4478]

Totally deserves more likes and views.

[@KevDSt]

Excellent medley, really well put together. Now +1 for a Guitar Hero version!!

[@marcelopresa1442]

Es realmente asombroso ,que bueno, que buena version de los temas

[@deathbydart3891]

holy cow balls this mix is so epic!!

[@carlodepatre2015]

Finally "Showdown" got justice!!!

[@PianoThad]

Hi, Thank you very much for sharing this. I can't get enough of it. Since I am a Tag freak, I completed the tag with your information and the information of the composers found on wikipedia. I also added a crazy kickass custom cover using art from the game. Let me know if you want me to share with you. Thanks again.

[@duffy123123]

I'd like to see the cover art :)

[@PianoThad]

duffy123123 The least I could do. Hope you like it. I Made a link: drive.google.com/file/d/0B9Alwk-_agXlM3RWUnRYUjQzUkU/view?usp=sharing

[@PianoThad]

duffy123123 Glad you approved. :)
