Grimm / Nightmare King (Hollow Knight: The Grimm Troupe) - GaMetal Remix (Halloween Special)

[@JonnyAtma]

Shoutout to the -Hollow- Knight itself for helping me out by playing all the instruments in the video. :)

*You fool, the Hollow Knight is a different character! For your mistake, I will* politely correct you.

You know, the memory of The Wonderful 101 will never die if you do Guyzoch Space Pirates/Guyzoch Space Pirate Teio Form. Such a beastly masterpiece that deserves to be GaMetalized.

Now, this song's scary and all...but I think *Volcano* from *Dino Run* is even scarier. I mean, it plays while you're traversing a *Volcano,* still on the *Run* from the wall of doom.

[@dekkadeci8860]

Who wants to make last-second bets on what Project One is? My first guess was a Xenoblade album (based on One -> Mono -> Monad -> Monado), but did Jonny name Project One before or after he figured its release/teaser date was going to be 11/11/2019?

[@FuryFX]

My guess is the #1 most popular series in the song ballot.

[@Volcanic_Rave]

Patron here, surprisingly we know just as little as you do, so I’m just gonna share the theories most commonly mentioned in the discord’s Patreon chat There’s the theory that the one stands for 1-up and it’s a Mario album, but the most prevalent theory is that it means year one, and that it’s remakes of some of the super old tracks back when he still went by Jonny Death

[@dicksonmattxenoblade6491]

My honest guess is what the most common theory seems to be, probably covers of old songs from his first year. What I hope it is but I'm sure it isn't is a Xenoblade album...three guesses why I hope it is.

[@dekkadeci8860]

@@Volcanic_Rave If it really will be Year 1 (to 2012) songs, and that seems plausible given the chiptune nature of the teaser clip... 1. Will Jonny really pick only his songs from 2009 (his first year releasing GaMetal tunes)? There's only 7 of them, and he's already redone at least 2 of them. 2. If Jonny actually picks his songs from 2009-2012 (i.e. his "Old" category on his website), will he pick any songs he's already redone?
