F Zero - Fire Field (Metal Cover)

You Got Boost Power! New Year, New Cover. This song is such an awesome tune I just had to cover it. Also somebody suggested in the comments of my Silence cover that I do a cover of Fire Field. So here it is.
My rendition of this song is essentially a hybrid of the original SNES version and the Super Smash Bros Brawl version. The overall arrangement is the same as the SNES version but I thought it would be better to use the varied chord progressions from the Brawl version in my cover. I also included an additional lead guitar so there’s some harmonies going on to make the song sound more bigger. With the rhythm guitar I tried to go all James Hetfield and downpick nearly all of it, but couldn’t keep up the stamina, so there are only a few riffs where I downpick, the rest is alternate picking.
Hope you enjoy my cover and stay tuned for more VGM Covers.

F-Zero has so much good music, really wish Nintendo would dig it out of the grave already.

[@AgeofReason]

But, It's not dead, my en-word.

[@BlueThunderO7]

@@AgeofReason That's what I like to believe too.

[@algia6112]

i got news for you

[@matthewhenry86]

Literally the most underrated song in the F Zero franchise

[@newageBoundhippie]

I think you're forgetting the entire Maximum Velocity soundtrack....

[@sno_au]

the 3 people who downvoted couldn't complete fire field

[@TwilightPB]

including motifs from other f-zero songs was such a goated move for this cover dude that shit had me flying around the room trying not to flip out

[@shinobiterry]

Best Fire Field Metal on TH-cam!

[@6metal6legend6]

Cheers thank you

[@coreychambers6543]

Shinobi Terry I agree

[@KSpartan]

I agree too.

[@CarterRage]

I love this. This is exactly how it would and should sound, if the SNES wasn't just 16bit. Awesome!

[@Pusterohr]

I like that Big Blue Solo Idea on 1:40. Very good, creative improvement.
Respect

[@snosnu]

i was like i hear big blue!! haha

[@ProjectGenesisMusic]

You are a F-Zero master!

[@6metal6legend6]

LOL

[@CaseyB3476]

This is epic! Kudos!

[@YChromosome99]

Had a hard time finding a good version. Yours is among the best.

[@6metal6legend6]

Thank you. Glad you enjoyed my cover

[@KSpartan]

I agree. Thx

[@aaronklein1490]

I don't know why I wanted to hear this but this is definitely what I came to hear

[@CafPhine]

Awesome. Reminds me of Z-Zero X. The most metal sound of any F-Zero game.❤

[@EnragedSephiroth]

This is the cover I was looking for. You did not disappoint.

[@OmegaVideoGameGod]

Won’t happen as long as Nintendo thinks the sales were declining.

[@Consolous]

Awesome job! Great seeing other F-Zero covers that aren't just the two popular ones.

[@Robint04]

I just wanted to say man. I was hoping somebody would do this for this song specifically. Just wanted to say thank you. And you didn't awesome job.

[@SoulCrusherEx]

What a legend. This theme is amazing !!!

[@Skrimpish]

Criminally underrated

[@BR540E]

This is radical man. Been listening to this for years. Finally subscibing today with the hope that you'll start back up.

[@richardmeerman6698]

Holy damn what an excellent cover! :o

[@Senjun1987]

Bro.. after all the tracks, it is time. Time for a Big Blue cover. Even there is a good version with the F-Zero X Soundtrack, we still need one from the Grandmaster! :D

[@michaelrussell2181]

MAN this is AMAZING!!

[@alpinecross4370]

This is the type of song that makes me close my eyes and shake my head so hard my vision blurs when I open them again. Amazing cover.

[@endtimeguitarist]

I only know the f zero x ost from playing it and only know the original ost from listening. Your playing is fun and the solo is sick!

[@AEWFULWRESTLING]

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKING AWESOME! Welcome to my playlist

[@merodi5768]

Kinda wish mute city and big blue werent the only two tracks in gx to get remixed versions of their original soundtracks. Imagine how awesome it would be if we got a fire field and port town soundtrack remix in gx

[@pippinunderhill9667]

Awwww yeee!

[@sototheshredder]

Sick af brah! Nailed it %100! :D

[@chimericalical]

1:30 I’m lovin’ it.
If you get this reference, good for you, lol.

[@chimericalical]

Two people apparently have seen the worlds greatest guitar solo ever

[@Deathrasher1985]

Hey man, your F-Zero covers are too on point! I love this and your Silence cover so much! You should cover Drivin' Through On Max (Sector ß) or Devil's Call In Your Heart (Devil's Forest) from F-Zero X! I think you'd nail either of these two! :D

[@6metal6legend6]

Thank you. Funnily enough I'm working on an F-Zero X cover. It's not any of the ones mentioned above but I'm sure you'll like it

[@Deathrasher1985]

MetalLegend64 no problem man! That's sick dude! I can't wait to see it. :)

[@DRIFT98]

Omg, This is the perfect cover

[@cheplays2482]

Just earned a subscriber. My complements to the drummer also. Excellent job!

[@6metal6legend6]

Thanks for subscribing. The drums are actually programmed.

[@riftshredder5438]

Man you need to do every F-Zero song out there

[@kuriputaa07]

1:10 FTW!

[@joeflores4057]

I love your vids dude! Keep up the awesome work!

[@6metal6legend6]

Thank you

[@jrkuzel3786]

[@B1G_Dave]

[@toxiconflict]

[@majortughjedi9813]

This is beyond great. Its amazing

[@djdai8901]

Gr8 choice!!
I love F-ZERO tune.
Big Blue, Mute City,and more....

No.1!!!!

[@6metal6legend6]

Indeed, this is a great tune

[@Cellmate412162]

Excellent cover! Now I wonder if Fire Field was in the hot diamond planet 55 Cancri E…

[@poipoipoipoipois]

sooo fkn great man had a relisten, still as epic haha, Rock on!

[@signalsix3548]

[@Optimator7]

Love this one

[@smh9902]

0:48
Yeah, there's nobody I personally know of that can actually pull off that solo, either.

[@gang-ridertv5433]

LEGENDARY!

[@Par-Crom]

Incredible man !!!!!!

[@endtimeguitarist]

@1:11 I am flying down the giant ramp about to launch across of all firefield and glitch land right to the finish line driving the sonic phantom (the skull) 💀

[@renslo689]

siiiiick. Awesome stuff man. Love F-Zero, Why do nintendo do nothing with it? :( 17 years since the last one

[@quote57]

Frickin awesome. You should do Big Blue next.

[@6metal6legend6]

Thanks. I actually did a cover of Big Blue a while back which you can listen to here: soundcloud.com/6metal6legend6/remix-f-zero-big-blue-metal-cover

[@F-ZERO]

this is awesome man. thank you so much \m/

[@6metal6legend6]

Cheers. Glad you liked

[@BradfortBottlenose]

This sounds better than the original in my opinion. The extra guitar lead makes it feel much more whole. Always felt like the original was missing something.

[@djhero0071]

It sounds very Guilty Gear esque. And I'm all for it. There needs to be more F-Zero covers beyond just Mute City and Big Blue.

[@RetroGamerN64]

You need more views you are awsome

[@deejay3297]

so gud

[@fra93ilgrande]

This is perfect to represent my perfect Fire Field run on MASTER using the Blue Falcon 😎 ☝🏻️ YES

[@snosnu]

Did you add big blue in there or is that how the song goes at 1:41

[@Pusterohr]

The song is actually different.
You've got the same sensitive ears like me and you're right.🤟😄
It *is* from the Big Blue melody.

[@joshuaroberts4245]

Subbed!

[@gang-ridertv5433]

YUS.

[@julianofs6041]

This is what I heard when I beat Fire Field on Master with every vehicle

[@ayar2]

underrated circuit track, despite being the only one that its in every f-zero game.

[@flamingphoenix1425]

1:41 common Big Blue W

[@Poke-oz4hc]

noice

[@zasu8068]

He is a perfect

[@KartKing4ever]

I put this on while I was 15 minutes late for work this morning and only got there 6 minutes late. True story, actually. As soon as the highway opened up I put this on.

[@retrodave4493]

Can you do more Fzero stuff? Your covers are on point

[@6metal6legend6]

Funnily enough I've been working on a new f-zero cover which I'll upload next week

[@arcticwolf8150]

Awesome, u should do the Feel our pain fire field song from GX with the solo that would be awesome

[@jorgefernandz6585]

Esta buena esta rola como para calentar antes de correr en cinta!!!!

[@renslo689]

maybe you could do some Biker Mice stuff? from either the game or their theme :)

[@Fatherpingu]

Why isn’t this in f zero x or gx

[@zackboring3314]

.......welp I'm gonna try to learn this song

[@FrankyChords]

geil

[@Damatt2407]

[@JVR10893]

You should do Port Town.

[@6metal6legend6]

I certainly will at some point. That's a great song too

[@FighBat]

😍👌

[@LordMelgorth]

Excelent im suscribet \m/ \m/

[@6metal6legend6]

[@eudaimonistic]

Outside of the original soundtrack, do you have a favorite course in the original game?

[@6metal6legend6]

Sorry for the late reply. I quite like Port Town stage

[@SoarinUpHigh]

[@plexus07]

[@grandremixbeats9272]

Put it at 1.5x speed and thank me later :D

[@usedsweatpants799]

[@Sagaexp]

[@barrelroll_poopoopeepee]

Is there somewhere where I can download a flac of this?

[@6metal6legend6]

Unfortunately not I'm afraid sorry

[@OmegaVideoGameGod]

Very fun always hated the course because the nightmare fuel of what caused the death of the planet.

[@TheFourthDefender]

[@ukyo6195]
