Here is my entry for the November Pixel Mixers cover contest "Metroidvania", you stil lcan participate here: https://www.reddit.com/r/VGCovers/comments/3r5dy8/pixel_mixers_contest_4...

This song is from a game i've never played, Super Metroid, but i knew this song thanks to some awesome covers on youtube (ToxicEternity & Familyjules7x, Ace Waters, RebeccaETripp...).
It has a really great dark atmosphere it fits a kind of prog power ballad really well, i hope you'll enjoy the different parts i've made for the arrangement :)

I used my Mustang floor for all the clean sounds but i had to use the Podfarm UX1 for the distortions to bring more power! the tone i use for the "all along arpeggios" is kinda creepy but i like it very much :p

It was composed by Kenji Yamamoto in 1994 for Super Metroid on Super Nintendo.
