♫TMNT: The Arcade Game, NES Arrangement Collection - NintendoComplete
This is a collection of themes that I have arranged from Konami's 1989 arcade game Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I have arranged them for native playback on NES hardware, and the audio was recorded directly from a toaster-model US NES deck.
It seemed like it would've been a bit too tacky to call this a "Cowabunga Collection," and any other play on words I would've come up would've have been even more cringe inducing, so here is what I've decided to call the "NES Arrangement Collection." There are six themes featured in this video:
Main title theme (streaming PCM) 0:00
Scene 1: Office Building 0:12
Scene 2-2: Sewer 2:28
Scene 3-1: Freeway 5:06
Scene 5: Technodrome 7:04
Shredder Battle 9:31
You might've already heard the Technodrome cover if you saw my upload of it earlier this week, but since this is a compilation of all the songs that I've done on the NES from the game, I wanted to include it along with the rest.
These tracks were so much fun to do with PCM samples. I based them on the original arcade arrangements rather than the music from the NES conversion (with some creative liberties taken along the way), and I think that the heavy drums and orchestra hits give the songs a fun kick without completely ditching the NES's distinct sound signature.
Everything here was created with the SuperNSF driver (not FamiTracker), and I recorded it all from my NES by running the .nsf files from a PowerPak flash cartridge.
Thanks for listening! I'd love to hear any thoughts you may have on the way they turned out!
