Mega Man 5 - Seeing Stars - 8-bit Famitracker [N163]

.0cc: drive.google.c...
I love Star Man! His design, his stage, and ofc his MUSIC, they're really really good. This song is another one of those songs like Ring Man's theme that are kinda disliked. I think this one isn't as hated as Ring Man because it's somewhat comprehensible, but it is weird af for a Mega Man song. Anyway consider this the sequel to my Ring Man cover, except this one is way better I think. 5 whole minutes of Star Man-related chiptune!!
I actually started this cover allll the way back in August, and somehow it's been sitting in my "currently working on" folder that whole time, despite being taking multiple-month breaks for lack of inspiration. But the other day I realized that what it NEEDED to get finished was a sudden shift into the David Bowie song of the same name!! At which point everything else clicked and I ended up with something I LOVE. Lots of stuff I find really unique and cool here so I hope you like it :D
Also, some of the N163 chord rhythms reference another familiar "Starman" song, see if you can spot that :)

Mega Man 5 OST truly needs more love. It’s good to see that you fully understand it! I really like how you turned mysterious Starman’s theme into more romantic tune. Also, nice easter egg!

[@roland_the_cursor]

Star Man certainly is a charming guy in the manga! So this fits perfectly. And David Bowie's song worked so well.

[@samirjohnson4524]

Agreed! 5 in general needs more props. It's very solid

I screamed at the David Bowie reference this might be one of the best robot master covers out there ever made for any of the RM's. This is too damn beautiful

Man, I only just now found your channel and you are the most hidden gem of remixers I’ve seen by far; I was wondering if anyone would mix Star Man with David Bowie’s song and this is one of the few times I laughed out loud while listening to a remix out of joy. This is gonna be a regular listen for me now

I'm a Star Man fan, and I approve of this message.

hi starman

[@Synthescissor]

jesus christ isabelle this is amazing!! i was already vibing and then 2:19 hit and it went from a pretty cool cover, to an amazing musical spectacle. i can tell you put a lot of effort into this, it really paid off :)

isnt the entire song the starman segment? considering who the song is for?

Ohhhh man I love this song and this is such a nice rendition

[@HollyBunnySilly]

Fun fact: Star Man is incredibly gay. Like, absurdly homosexual. He likes men to quite the tomfoolerus degree. Perhaps, even a floptoferus amount of enjoying men. You might be able to say that he has a flinkledifferouscositoritly high amount of enjoyment for male beings.

[@IsabelleChiming]

If not for the guy begging for Mario 3 McDonalds Commercial I would absolutely pin this omg lmao

[@cheezocheddarman7163]

@@IsabelleChiming KZbin only allows one pinned comment? Cringe.

[@HollyBunnySilly]

Update: It has been discovered that Star Man is optorfloralintrisically attracted to masculine entities. Possibly, even a Trostotockalinsatoricalapally high degree of sexual attraction towards the same gender as himself. (The gender, in question, being male.)

[@AtomicDeathray]

A perfect Mega Man cover just when I needed it :O Making a new MMMaker level and music is always an inspiration 🤘

WITH THE BOWIE IN IT TOO FUCK THIS IS SO GOOD

[@DerKapitan_]

This sounds absolutely stellar (get it?), great work! :)

[@IsabelleChiming]

I do get it!!!! 😁 ty!!

[@cheezocheddarman7163]

This cover is all over the place...and I LOVE IT for that! Normally, I'm not TOO big on music that shifts tone, key, tempo, whatever so frequently, but this piece manages to do that VERY well, each part feeling unique yet also coherent at the same time. HOW DO YOU DO IT? Also really like the parts with the Triangle channel and those chirps (for a lack of a better term) that temporarily give the cover a genuine sense of traveling the stars.

[@IsabelleChiming]

Thank you!!! Really appreciate how much detail you put into this comment ☺️

[@cheezocheddarman7163]

@@IsabelleChiming Thank YOU for this cover! There was a lot going on and I sorta had a lot to say.

[@dobrakawanimat]

I absolutely hate Star Man's theme, and this has made it more tolerable for myself, fair play to you because not any other cover/remix of it has done that for me. I like the more improv stuff you did after the loop as well I should mention.

[@_V.Va_]

The inclusion of Bowie's Starman was truly a nut busting moment. ❤

[@azureangel42]

I love how this fully brings to light the romantic personality that Starman has, and lights up the entire tune just like a star would. You really outdid yourself with this one; Depicting a character through each note as smoothly as you did is no easy feat! Look forward to others in the future!

[@ZenoPyrio]

That's awesome! Those triangle arpeggios are incredible, the notes flow together really nicely, and the creative ideas are excellent! Very good stuff, I should try out some of these techniques in my covers.

Never heard this song before. Your covers never disappoint. I tried out 0cc famitacker for a little bit, but I gave up because I couldn't adjust the microscopic Ui or import my settings from the normal version. Didn't feel like dealing with that at the time.

[@somebodyelse9130]

Although I've never played Mega Man, i find this a pretty interesting song to listen to. I like the time changes, and the build-ups are satisfying to listen to, probably for reasons I'm not listing (I don't think I'm qualified to give music critiques tbh). But it's really good! I'm going to listen to the actual song after this.
