You want terrifying? There's a analogue synth version of METROID out there... It's like something out of a John Carpenter movie: th-cam.com/video/Q6fceLfjB4s/w-d-xo.html
@o0MisterG0o His synth covers of metroid are incredible! Either using a good set of headphones, or better yet, a high end sound system.. the bass is dope! 😅
The whole soundtrack. I... y'know if there's any vid of yours to blow up, I _really_ hope it's this one. This must've taken a _lot_ of time to do and I know for a fact from previous works that it'll deserve nothing less.
Now 16-bit is pretty great and all, but 8-bit era soundtracks have their own charm and appeal and DUDE this transposed version of the Super Metroid soundtrack is absolutely badass. It pays so much respect to the original soundtrack while also showing off the 8-bit style. Absolutely phenomenal. Brilliant work!
Eh i still prefer 16-bit. I know 8-bit has a huge cult factor and i also love it to death, but i also think 16-bit is under-appreciated in the retro community for whatever reason. 8-bit remixes are everywhere, but 16-bit is rare...
This had me hooked at the title theme!! Super Metroid has such a banger soundtrack, it could never sound bad! I appreciate you remixing the whole ost and not just one or two songs like a lot of other people do. Definitely gonna come back and listen to this to get hyped for more metroid after the prime 4 trailer dropped today!
I love this a lot, its not under, nor overdone. Its perfect. I also love how well done the ambient themes are done, especially the upper Norfair theme. Awesome work dude.
As a Metroid music and chiptune purist I had my doubts at first, especially when I heard there was something different going on compared to usual NES renditions. However, there was a legit technical explanation for what I heard and eventually the album turned out to be quite loyal to both chiptune and Super Metroid in my ears. Those little satisfying things like chord arpeggios in Green Brinstar is what make good 8-bit arrangements shine. Thanks for well thought out interpretation!
I want to take some time to appreciate the stellar artwork that was done for this video. Animated pixelated progress bars for each song? Now you've officially outdone yourself, buddy.
Amazing work loedman. There's a lot to talk about here, but i'll start by pointing out that I really like how you did those bubbly noises in Tourian. Ridley's theme is probably my favorite. You also did a really good job with the album art!
This is fantastic. The original soundtrack is already a masterpiece and these covers clearly recognized this by not adding or taking away much from the original. All the while coming off as mysterious and ominous as the first time we heard it. Excellent work!
@morganpaulree557 No, super metroid(even with graphical decreases) just would not be able to run on the NES. Its just too big and balanced around vertical aiming
Parfait !!! Genialissime !!! Beaucoup d'effort pour une qualité 8bit hors du commun ! Bravo... et je le dis en français pour que tu puisses savoir que ici aussi on t'ecoute !! Well done !!
I'm very sad to only have found out about this just now. This is really incredible, awesome work! You did an especially good job translating the Criteria Arrival track to VRC6 imo 👍 it's amazing.
This was absolutely amazing! It had toons like the tourian theme come straight from the mouths of the dead, and crateria's surface toon is as bombastic as ever! Of course, my favorite is still lower Norfair, but I think the original is the best video game music ever, so I mean I might be bias there, but through beginning to end it was a faithful rendition of the tunes, perfectly blending the heart and sound of retro music with the "I am perfect in every way and I can back up too" nature of Super Metroid (the greatest game ever). A huge prop to you Loeder, this is a mastery of music.
That Brinstar track makes me want to play Super Metroid again right now! With no offense to Mr. Yamamoto and Hamano, I might need to play that area with this version. And maybe the Samus warrior theme when I get to that part too. But that’s it, I promise!
It's just like i remember it i got pins and needles I never listen somethink better than this i love it :) It's just perfect Is that module or it just sounds like that?
This is quite possibly the best remix of the soundtrack I've ever heard. You didn't even do just a couple of the songs either, you went and did the ENTIRE OST. Serious respect. Great job on this!
Tourian is where I’ve always gave up any time I ever considered covering the OST. Just trying to cover Zero Mission’s version was difficult. I very much liked this. Trying to emulate atmosphere with Famitracker is...not easy, and I saw some good justice here.
Great job on this for sure. :) As I was listening to this while playing other games on my computer, I kept imagining in my mind what a 8-bit version of Super Metroid might look like. I have very fond memories of my older brother and I playing this on the SNES armed with the handy dandy strategy guide.
This is truly amazing, I found your Artaria cover and afterwards I've been listening to your channel and man, I'm at a loss for words... I don't even know how is it that you have so little views, you deserve, many, many more. I'm not one to do things like this but I had an idea, the Nemesis the Warlock's theme for the C64 game is one of my favorite chiptune pieces of all time, I thought that it would be awesome if you could do an 8-bit rendition of that theme. Your style is amazingly clean and it would fit perfectly! Just a suggestion though! Thanks for your amazing music!
Thank you Loeder, these are awesome! I almost cried when I heard the Green Brinstar one. Thank you for providing the download links, I will now proudly have that one as my ringtone. ☺️
Imagine if this game was remade on the Gameboy Color kind of like DKC but good. I'd imagine the soundtrack sounding like this. The analog pocket is coming out and I heard that this is going to have software or something that helps you make gameboy games. I would like someone to remake Super Metroid using this software or whatever. But there's a risk that Nintendo will take that down like AM2R.
I love this game!! sounds great and i actually have a lot of your covers in playlists of mine. Nice to see how much you've grown over the years! been here since 2k ✌
This album is so SO good. Outta been so long since I played SM that for some of these songs may have been the originals for how hard you nail them. 10/10 would buy as an LP for 29.99 at TAZ records
Just fantastic! Easily the greatest Metroid game and one of the greatest games of all time to this day. Super Metroid was Samus Aran at her absolute most powerful and finest.
Loeder, could you please do the Metroid 1 OST in the Super Metroid sound font and the SNES' audio channel count? That would be incredible... I don't think ANYONE has ever done that.
As Ian Malcom once said, "You did it! You crazy son of a (yeah), you did it!" Jokes aside, THIS IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!! Super Metroid is my favorite game, and absolutely LOVE the OST for it, so I freaking LOVE this. Also, really nice "virtual album" visuals.
Overgrown with Vegetation in 8 bit sounds like it would be in a Megaman game. :D just saying. You always do an amazing job with your 8 bit and 16 bit soundtracks. :D
Thanks for straight up saying that we could use this in our works. I will be putting this in a fan project and will definitely credit you! Amazing work! Seriously, it's beautiful.
I rarely, if ever, post on TH-cam...but I was so damn captivated by your work that I was compelled to say thank you. This took me to some alternate universe where Metroid 3 was an NES title, and Super Metroid never was. Excellent work replicating the SM music in the restricted 8-bit format. Bravo!
This is really sick, major props, also I love what you did for the aesthetic of the video, I hope you do similar stuff in the future, maybe if you get hooked with another soundtrack lol.
This was amazing. I can't believe I hadn't found this earlier. I still can't get over how well it transitions over to 8-bit using the tools you did. Amazing job, once again!
This is beautiful. The Ending one especially but they all capture the tone and feel of the original compositions. I'd be curious to find out which one was the most difficult to re-compose into Famicom.
Great question! I initally expected that either Norfair was going to be the hardest, since it's not very melodic and uses lot's of low frequencies. However, I think the Tourian theme was the hardest, since I had to figure out how to replicate those bubble sounds without making it annoying or repetitive to listen to.
"Fuck it, I'll just do the whole thing"
-Loeder, probably
lmfao
This game’s soundtrack in 8-bit is terrifying as all hell. Really nice work on this one!
You want terrifying? There's a analogue synth version of METROID out there... It's like something out of a John Carpenter movie:

@@2thre3 nice one m8
He just gone and done the whole soundtrack 🥶🥶🥶
Fr loll so coolllldddd 🥶
You really had to put all this effort gaw damn
The more effort in it, the more epic
And this would be perfect for Super Metroid on the Famicom though I would like to hear this as if it was on the NES
What a beautiful homage to the series' 30th anniversary. Nintendo themselves could not have done a better job, holy.
35th*
@@theshakyguy Oh yeah, oops. Samus is older than I thought.
@@Lucas-db2jq Well, yeah! However, she's aged like fine wine.
It's sad that Nintendo neglects Metroid. And apparently Zelda now too, since they ignored the 35th anniversary for that too.
@@polybius8571
Indeed. -_-
The whole soundtrack.
I... y'know if there's any vid of yours to blow up, I _really_ hope it's this one. This must've taken a _lot_ of time to do and I know for a fact from previous works that it'll deserve nothing less.

This whole thing is pure excellence but Brinstar Overgrowth is godly.
Hot damn, this rendition of Jungle Brinstar is even MORE upbeat, and I never imagined this Tourian theme could sound so goddamn TERRIFYING.
Thanks for the hour of super metroid 8 bit music. Now all we need is time stamps
OH YEAH thanks, let me add those right now!
@@LoederMusic good luck
@@LoederMusic Please make them in the description of the video, thats how they show up in the UI
Crateria arrival was already a chilling Doom 64-esque track as is. In 8-bit, it's horrifying. I love it.
I love the little Metroid with the headphones
Same here
You'd think there would be a loss of quality by going down to 8-bit... but this is amazing.
Now 16-bit is pretty great and all, but 8-bit era soundtracks have their own charm and appeal and DUDE this transposed version of the Super Metroid soundtrack is absolutely badass.

You even animated a music player instead of just slapping a static picture for the video. Dedication.
This had me hooked at the title theme!! Super Metroid has such a banger soundtrack, it could never sound bad! I appreciate you remixing the whole ost and not just one or two songs like a lot of other people do. Definitely gonna come back and listen to this to get hyped for more metroid after the prime 4 trailer dropped today!
My guy Loeder just went and remade the entire soundtrack. Respect
TH-cam needs a "standing ovation" button for this video. Thank you, and congrats on such a gem, wow! You made me and my young daughter's day :)
I love this a lot, its not under, nor overdone. Its perfect. I also love how well done the ambient themes are done, especially the upper Norfair theme. Awesome work dude.
The last metroid is in captivity. The Galaxy es at peace.
Masterpiece.

Oh, great! 8-bit style sounds very creepy and obscure. I need a Super Metroid demake for NES with this soundtrack NOW!
"yo dawg, I heard you like retro music so i retro'd your retro music so your retro music is even more retro"
nice work, this is awesome!
I want to take some time to appreciate the stellar artwork that was done for this video. Animated pixelated progress bars for each song? Now you've officially outdone yourself, buddy.
this is so fuckin good?? like holy shit u poured ur blood sweat n tears into this whole ass remix of the entire games ost
This sounds like last generation NES music. And I love it.
Super Metroid Demake sounds like a cool concept
Way better than most remixes out there. This one keeps the original sinister atmosphere!!
11:41 me when dialling someones number whos not on mein contact list
Amazing work loedman. There's a lot to talk about here, but i'll start by pointing out that I really like how you did those bubbly noises in Tourian. Ridley's theme is probably my favorite. You also did a really good job with the album art!
I need an extension of that ridley track god damn
Metroid Planets brought me here, good work on this as it gives its glorious life to Planet Novus
Digging the covers of the OST, like most everyone here. I'm also getting a kick out of the headphones on the metroid.
Dude, the item room theme made me step back and check to see if i was still on the same video. It's so perfect, holy crap
This is fantastic. The original soundtrack is already a masterpiece and these covers clearly recognized this by not adding or taking away much from the original. All the while coming off as mysterious and ominous as the first time we heard it. Excellent work!
Very nice. Getting some serious C64 vibes from Brinstar Overgrown.
Wow the entire soundtrack in 8bit? Impressive work
Green Brinstar sounds like something out of Terraria and I'm here for it
Super Metroid for NES would've been cool too! This is amazing!
@morganpaulree557 No, super metroid(even with graphical decreases) just would not be able to run on the NES. Its just too big and balanced around vertical aiming
Parfait !!! Genialissime !!! Beaucoup d'effort pour une qualité 8bit hors du commun ! Bravo... et je le dis en français pour que tu puisses savoir que ici aussi on t'ecoute !! Well done !!
Un autre Français ! (ou Québécois ?)
@@mysterystar6415 Un français ^^
Well, I wasn't expecting this! I always think it's cool when entire soundtrack remakes are created. Thanks for giving everyone a blast from the past!
I mean if the 16-bit sounds nice, this one on 8-bit sounds awesome! superb work m8!! 👏
50:17 Tourian - this track sounds like music from Game Boy's Metroid 2!
Awesome. Sounds like its on Gameboy now. Totally awesome.
I'm very sad to only have found out about this just now. This is really incredible, awesome work! You did an especially good job translating the Criteria Arrival track to VRC6 imo 👍 it's amazing.
I wonder if he likes Super Metroid
probably not
OatsnGoats has to listen to this!
If Tim and Geoff Follin composed Metroid.
i no joke, practically cried my eyes out at the end credits...
Thank You.
awesome. simply awesome
we need more entire game cover albums
Thanks! That means a lot coming from you!
Yo
Downloading this without even listening to all of it first. Sick!
sand maridia brinstar jungle kraid and statue chamber are great in 8 bit
so is the rest
I love the item pickup room remix!
I recently replayed Super Metroid. This version of the soundtrack is absolutely amazing! It fuels me as I am studying for my Master degree.
That's awesome. Hope your successful in obtaining your masters!
Trying to imagine the looks I'm going to get when I try to explain this and that it's kind of a big deal.

Amazing work bro !
I made my own interprrtation of this fabulous OST !
That Brinstar track makes me want to play Super Metroid again right now! With no offense to Mr. Yamamoto and Hamano, I might need to play that area with this version.
And maybe the Samus warrior theme when I get to that part too. But that’s it, I promise!
Nah do all the theme remixes
lol im kidding
OMG Loeder! This is AMAZING! Thank you...really enjoy listening to this! :)
24:06 me when I noticed I forgot homework and it's 5 minutes before the turn in. (Play on loop 5 times for full 5 minutes)
Well done! One of the best OSTs in history.
It's just like i remember it
i got pins and needles
I never listen somethink better than this
i love it :)
It's just perfect
