Yeah, here's me experimenting with sample sets of games and trying to nail down the overall style from the game they come from with games I haven't tried this before once again lol

Ngl, considering how much the Fiend theme sounds like a Pokemon battle theme I'm surprised no one tried this before, not even a shitty MIDI slap cover or anything like that, but tbf that also ended up being a pretty good motivator to try and make a cover of this myself, and considering how much I not only like Gen 5's music overall, but also love the hell out of the samples that they used, I thought it would be cool to try out something like this, and I even went the extra mile and made it sound more like a alternate battle theme for Ghetsis, including adding the vocals and some timpani parts, along with doing something else related to them as a nod to something in relation to Ghetsis overall, but I'll let you figure that one out for yourself :)

Btw, might as well throw out this little piece of trivia your way, but if you didn't know, this track actually first came out for the PS1 port of the first SMT game, which predated Nocturne's original release by at least 2 years IIRC, not to mention there's also a specific theme that they made exclusively for the Alice fiend encounter in the PS1 ports of SMT 2 and SMT If..., which I'll definitely cover at some point in this exact same style since IMO it sounds even more like a Pokemon battle theme than the Fiend theme already does, but regardless here's some cool trivia you probably didn't know before I guess :P
