AAAAND here's an SNES remix of King Knight's stage theme from Shovel Knight (Wii U, 3DS, Steam).

I've been playing a LOT of Shovel Knight since release. It's just that good. The music in particular is great, and Jake Kaufman did a great job making all of these wonderful 8-bit tracks. I don't think I stated this in the last remix, but I personally think The Forlorn Sanctum is one of the best songs in the entire game due to how tragically ambient it ends up being (hence why I remixed it first). King Knight's stage theme is also a really incredible song.

As with the previous remix, I ended up using only Zelda: A Link to the Past soundfonts to create this version. I wanted to evoke memories of Hyrule Castle from that game in this remix from the beginning, and you might hear that here. But in the end, I think it ended up sounding a lot more like the Dark World theme from the same game. I also tried to use a bit of harpsichord-sounding strumming instead of a piano (okay, here I cheated by having two sounds for the harpsichord effect - the Zelda III harp and piano together).

I actually had it done soon after "The Forlorn Sanctum", but I was out of town and was unable to post it until today, so...apologies for being late. I had fun making this remix, though!
