Nuclear Fusion - METAL COVER - Touhou 11【Utsuho Reiuji's Theme】

[@YaboiMatoi]

⭐ *Get this song, Bad Apple, Japanese Goblin and 11 more Touhou covers on my new album:* ➤ffm.to/lunatic-touhou Guitar Tabs of all songs are available on my Patreon! You guys voted for a cover of Nuclear Fusion and here it is! Let me know what you think!✋ My goal with this song was to add many of my own ideas while still staying true to the original composition. I also went all out with video special effects haha! Nuclear Fusion is an absolute banger and an iconic Touhou classic too. I hope you enjoy my take on it!

The 🐐

[@lexo8064]

My heart melt when the Rin's theme came, it deserves its own cover imo. But the whole was crazily good, let's go even further in epicness ! :D

[@Hg-201]

Nuclear Fusion might be one of the most metal-covered Touhou songs, but I knew you'd still make something that stands out. The little hint of Beloved Tomboyish Girl was awesome and made me want to replay Hisoutensoku.

[@haxalicious]

Well, I mean, makes sense, considering the song and character are both very metal.

[@arkaradiat7227]

I love how he mixes all other themes in his covers, also Rin should get her separate cover!

[@YaboiMatoi]

Glad you like it! I’ll do Rin’s theme in the future too. It’s a great one!

@@YaboiMatoi You ALWAYS look like you're having an absolute blast playing. Keep rocking hard, Badass.

[@TJ-Henry-Yoshi]

the backing guitars starting at 1:34 are pure bliss! Then you hit us with the surprise good cheer 2:50 and I had to double take there

[@YaboiMatoi]

Thanks so much! I wanted try out some ideas of my own at 1:34. Happy you like it, man! 2:50 cat 👀

Phenomenal as always. This version of nuclear fusion is god tier. Great work.

[@BlackSenapi]

nothing's a better day than a day with touhou covers. love touhou love your content

[@piman3062]

☢ It's finally here! ☢ One of my absolute favorite themes and you nailed it. Absolutely love your inclusions of sirens too.

[@YaboiMatoi]

Awesome, thank you so much!! It's kinda funny, I was scrolling through all the instrument sounds that I have and stumbled upon the siren and instantly thought "Wouldn't that sound cool in a Nuclear Fusion cover?" and now we're here hahah

[@vyllix8546]

Nuclear powered guitars must sound pretty explosive

[@Batzalko]

One of the best themes and most known of all touhou games. And you played it so beautiful.

[@YaboiMatoi]

Thanks so much!

[@RieMUisthegoaT]

The short burst of drums the stop then drums (idk what you call them) gives me the strongest goosebumps. EASILY the best arrangment of this song.

[@YaboiMatoi]

Thank you so much!!! I always wanted to write a build-up like that, I'm happy you like that part

[@grzelu12]

DISCORD SQUAD ASSEMBLE! What a banger man, you (again) outdid yourself, amazing :O Also, that 2:40 riff sounds so rock&roll that it almost sent me back to 70's lmao

[@YaboiMatoi]

Lesgooo! Thanks, bro! 2:40 is very yeehaw pardner get'er done hahah

[@elpanayo4432]

The solo at 2:40 is the moment where if you haven't liked to this cover already, you do it automatically

[@EggSlashEther]

We're on red alert, unyu! Legendary ass always. Still not sure how this *only* has 1.5k views! Absolutely criminal.

[@capitão_paçoca]

Some time ago, I was studying the life cycles of stars and I thought it would be fun if I listened to this theme in loop. Best ideia ever.

[@galtonova]

AWESOME! True to the original but uniquely you. Also, as always I really like your mixing.

[@YaboiMatoi]

Thank you!! During mixing, I managed to make the snare even snappier this time haha. I've also figured out something new and looking forward to try it out in the next song!

[@elios7623]

@@YaboiMatoi i want to ask..... but i'll stick with the surprise lmao

[@JoaoVitor-nq1bu]

@@YaboiMatoi Bro, this snare sounds massive! Would you mind telling us what samples you used and how you precessed them?

[@YaboiMatoi]

@@JoaoVitor-nq1bu I use a bunch of samples to be honest but GGD Architects and Superior Drummer 3 are a big part of it. I've been mixing these drums for the past year and still working on it haha. Check out some GGD videos, they know what's up

[@starbomber]

For some reason I thought you'd covered this tune before. It is my absolute favorite Touhou track though! I absolutely love the break at 3:10 as well.

[@YaboiMatoi]

Thanks a lot! I've always wanted to cover this one, and people also voted for it so it was a perfect opportunity. I'm happy you like it!!

☢ CAUTION ☢ ☢ YABOIMATOI UPLOAD ☢

[@Hadaron]

I haven’t seen anybody else commenting about it, but the Story of Eastern Wonderland leitmotif at 1:01 - 1:22 really elevates this song to a whole new tier of awesome. Great cover, Matoi!

[@YaboiMatoi]

Thank you, mate! I'm glad you like my cover! I've used the Eastern Wonderland theme in a few other songs of mine too. It's an awesome motif!

[@yasscraftx21._.]

Lets goo the theme of my favorite character, i love this one, great cover dude

[@hecateb581]

This one was especially really fun to make! All parts just fit together so right while making it. Thank you so much!

[@dreamleaf552]

@@YaboiMatoi Gotta love when it all just comes together so naturally. Plus I feel songs like this and Pandemonic Planet just work so well as metal covers

oh my god I LOVE the way you implemented the theme of eastern story in the chorus, that was extremely cool

[@YaboiMatoi]

Glad you like it!! It was a spontaneous idea but it fits so well. Thanks so much!

[@decalcomanie123]

Great work! I especially love your performance, entertaining as always. You're actually the reason I sometimes choose to listen to metal covers of Touhou music, I used to only listen to the originals. Kudos!

[@YaboiMatoi]

Thank you so much! I do my best to make my covers enjoyable for everyone, since metal is a hard genre to get into in the first place. I'm happy you enjoy listening to it!

[@Spinning_Kosh]

Amazing job!! Man what a drop i'm melting from the amount of ☢️

[@Tobias-rj3kq]

What you did with the rhythm and how you mixed up your usual formula for solos is what stood out to me, they were amazing, and so was everything else! Hope we can see the mayones next time!

[@YaboiMatoi]

Thanks, man! I really wanted to try out something new and it felt so comfy too. I wanna play on the Mayones soon, but I need to do a little setup. I'm gonna get to it once it's done!

Always appreciate the attention to detail in your songs a lot of other covers lack, like the keyboard at 0:30 i just wish it had a tiny bit more volume to let it shine
