While this whole mix is absolutely insane. I just can't get enough of those first 5 seconds. The initial blast and then that smooth bass just serves as the perfect start.
I kind of agree, I don't know how much of that is nostalgia though. I just feel the stage Megaman X Boss Select Screen(not this video) is the most "appropriate" music in all gaming. Being 5 years old, opening this up, playing through the epic highway level, getting your ass kicked by Vile, then that theme plays with those 8 badasses staring you down. Ohman
Once again you got it ... earlier it made me realize that there was still something alive inside me ... and now it keeps that flame burning. Again, THANK YOU SO! I imagine the work is hard. Please do not stop ... but if you have to stop, know that you have already done a spectacular job!
Ironically, I remember being pretty unhappy with this when I made it. Now, not to toot my own horn too much, but I'm glad it's racked up a bunch of views because holy shit this is really good. The solos in this song are completely nuts and I seriously love them. I just basically never listened to this song after I made it but after getting drunk and listening through my own crap (because that's what you do when you're drunk apparently) this is just way the hell better than I remember and I'm super happy to see a comment mimicking my own exact feelings. Hats off.
@@StoneMcKnuckleSometimes it takes extreme measures to make us realize the good things we do. And btw that story is hilarious. 😂 Keep making stuff like this, because I’m not the only one who loves it.
Man. I love how you give love to the less common tracks. Everyone does Wily Stage II, FFVII Battle Theme, or Chrono Trigger main theme. These songs are just as good, and you do them justice! Have a subscription.
Ah, classic MMX! Truly one of the best games of my childhood. I remember that Launch Octopus's was the first selectable stage that I ever attempted for the simple reason that it was at the top-left corner of the board. I quickly discovered that it was not the most appropriate stage for a new player. I found Launch Octopus to be just overwhelmingly difficult without the Rolling Shield. By the time I finally settled on an order that I preferred for taking on the Reploids, I left Launch Octopus for the latter half, my 6th target.
Been Crack-fiending for another one of your mixes lately. The Crack high gets even worse when i know it's an X Mix. you always bring that heat man. Keep on Rocking Stone. See ya next mix.
The sonar synth is a super nice touch that I honestly wish the original had. Gives the whole song a good, fast pace and keeps with the underwater theme.
Dude... Im sure that you hear this pretty often; but you are my freaking hero!!! Seriously... you dont have idea how many memories come to my head when I listen your themes... I grew up playing MegaMan X (BTW in my personal opinion was the BEST BY FAR of the X saga) One thing I hope: Capcom dear to recover some dignity and re-take the X saga just like they did with Rockman. And the other thing, and this is IMPERATIVE: they must hire you to make the sound tracks of the hole game!!! Thanks again for this, its simply AWESOME!
Love how talented people like you does wonder into creating Megaman and or Megaman X songs into metal alteration, shows that Rockman and his younger brother X can F'n "ROCK" and "Extremely Rock". Megaman and X songs + Metal = Magic to the ears.
I am of the opinion that of all the Mega Man X series covers, you most perfectly capture the intent of the originals while still making it fully your own and fully epic. 👍🏻 🌟
Fun fact: This was the first Megaman level I ever played, and I was hardcore grooving to the track EVEN AS A KID. So hearing this LEGENDARILY good remix just takes me way over the top.
This is, the real workout song and also depression cure song, the power of this music, is pure motivation to move on and defeat the most hardest obstacles in our lives, because everyone of us, have to fight some kind of mavericks of our own. So guys never give up, the fight because, that is what, mavericks want from you. So head up and together we will win
The only i can say right know is that you made my night with this song , btw nice work i was actually waiting for a new mmx remix but i think this is a perfect way to end a night
My friend : what do you think about Launch octopus? Me: meh, for me it´s the worst theme in all the game My friend, huh, really? Listen this Me: ok but i not get excit- OH MY GOOOD THIS IS INCREDIBLE
@@StoneMcKnuckle I really don't mind that it's slower to the actual theme, because the way the tempo and arrangement goes gave this underrated theme the justice it deserves :D
The mix is amazing on this one. Best cover of this song by far. Awesome job! You captured what the original was going for to it's full potential in my opinion.
Everything you do is fucking solid! Please however give us a zero X-X4 compilation and a storm owl remix!!! The world needs your versions of these songs
I love All of your remix! Your work is just the best of TH-cam! For this christmas, you make a great present for me! Thank you very much and please don't stop your incredible remixes. 😍
This is one of my all time favorite songs. Ringtone, too! Could you make a mix that wasn't so high pitched? Doesn't have to be bass boosted, though that sounds appealing. My Asperger's is like Venom, and I get a headache after a while on repeat.
Honestly, I doubt I will. Bandcamp is kind of an annoying jerk of a site and I've had tons of problems with it in the past. Whether you're after the high quality audio or you simply want to support me, that's what I've got patreon for.
You got this bro. As a musician I have one piece of advice for you. Even if you hate it, its worth sharing because Art does not live within the confine of anything. It is what it is. This is a sick cover.
I know, I know. It's not like I think this thing's crappy in the end, I'm just a tad disappointed in myself for not being able to stay true to the vision I had for it.
Yo, i just wanna put this out there, i'm a huge fan of the mega man series, and this is like, some of the sickest shit i've heard in my goddamn life, keep up the good work
@@StoneMcKnuckle Haha, is that it? Well I'm glad you had the confidence to tackle it then. Thanks for making it! By the way, I wouldn't mind an X1 Sigma's Fortress Stage 1 theme either, if you ever get a chance... ;)
@@StoneMcKnuckle Yeeeesssss! There are barely any remixes of it compared to other themes (let alone good ones), so I hope you can make something work. I definitely see how it could be difficult due to its style and instruments used, especially with much you tend to utilize guitar in your remixes, but I'm sure you can make something great one way or another. No rush!
@@WowMyNameIsUnique Looking over the other Launch Octopus remixes on TH-cam and found this: th-cam.com/video/w-gXgaSr7dk/w-d-xo.html By Gt. Ryosuke. This does what I wanted to do in the first place - capturing the feel of the original - but still making it metal as fuck and all that good stuff. It's super awesome and better than mine IMO, so have a look ;>
While this whole mix is absolutely insane. I just can't get enough of those first 5 seconds. The initial blast and then that smooth bass just serves as the perfect start.
I just got done listening to the spark mandril mix. and, while I LOVE that one, this one is actually bonkers in how much detail there is.
Dude I agree so much, makes you feel badass for no justifiable reason
Mega Man X has one of the best soundtracks of anything ever. You sir, by far, have the best covers.
I kind of agree, I don't know how much of that is nostalgia though. I just feel the stage Megaman X Boss Select Screen(not this video) is the most "appropriate" music in all gaming.

Its good, however Megaman 2 - Hold my Guitars! th-cam.com/video/zquDLt8W_R0/w-d-xo.html
@@richardlao9897 The sheer abundance of remixes and covers in multiple different genres is clear evidence that it is not just nostalgia.
@@richardlao9897 I introduced two 10 year olds to the game and they played it like addicts till they beat sigma. The game has aged very very well
Streets of rage 2. Streets of rage 2. Its a tie.
This is legit. I hope boomer kuwanger would be next

@@Megaman8707 +1! We want Boomer!
Look at all you losers with Mega Man for a profile picture!

He launched us a nice Christmas present in high-octane.
I see myself out.
good one...

I was never fond of Launch Octopus' theme but *HOLY SHIT* you've made it better
you absolute madlad it's one of my favorite tracks from the game lol

@Vincent Montreuil well, that's the next youtube upload in advance for the 22 peeps who clicked the link before I noticed anything lol
Amazing as allways! So happy about a new Megaman Cover, they have so much energy! Hope to be able to support u on Patreon again in the near future.
OH BOY IT'S STONE MC KNUCKLE WITH THE MEGAMAN X UPLOAD
ITS THE GREATEST THING SINCE THE LAST STONE MC KNUCKLE MEGAMAN X UPLOAD! YAAAAA!!!!
Like 100, congrats
I'm not even sure I can wear socks again they've been rocked off so hard
You'll have to replace your whole lower legs with gigantic robotic prosthetics.
And dude don’t be so hard on yourself because you are great at this even if it is not my favorite I still love it
Holy man! So epic!!!
Boomer Kuwanger next pls!!

This came just in the nick of time for some motivational gaming music. I love the way it sounds so far. Missed you! Keep up the excellent work!
stone McKnuckle covers are pure gold
This is pretty damn amazing! Only a few mavericks left. Sting Chameleon, Chill Penguin, and Boomer Kuwanger.
Sting is cool
I'm usually not a fan of launch octopus, but I've gotta say, this is outstanding
You should do boomer kuwanger or sparkling scorpio from mmx corrupted

This is simply a masterpiece. There’s no other way to put it.
This is by far my fav of the MMX remixes.
When those dueling guitars came in, I was so happy.
The return of Mega Man X1 songs. Holy shit this gave me chills.
God damn, everything you touch turns to gold! Keep it up, my man!
I'm just waiting on Chill Penguin now. Once Stone does that, he'll have the entire original eight Mavericks done!
Same, also there aint a lot of chill penguin remixes out there
This is the best pre Christmas gift man
This is the second MMX remix I've heard of yours then I clicked your channel and I saw Sorcerian and Brandish remixes so take this sub
2:27 After +5 years of watch time, you know your extended take on the song is good when it is VISUALLY the most replayed part by a MILE.
This is a miracle! I was just listening to this theme so much today!
I was beginning to think that I was overdue for some new MMX remixes and then this happened. Welp, adding this to a playlist.
It's not often you find a Launch Octopus remix (or maybe I'm just not looking in the right places). Well done.
HOOOOOOOLY shit. This is AMAZING.
0:50 this part was the true perfection
Bro this is awesome!!! Great work, keeping me pumped up and awake tonight to finish a work deadline. Owe ya one man
Please never stop making these
The only i can say right know is that you made my night with this song , btw nice work i was actually waiting for a new mmx remix but i think this is a perfect way to end a night
It’s comforting to know that the Megaman series’ music still gets so much love after all this time.
My friend : what do you think about Launch octopus?
Me: meh, for me it´s the worst theme in all the game
My friend, huh, really? Listen this
Me: ok but i not get excit- OH MY GOOOD THIS IS INCREDIBLE
I'm a fan of a more fast-paced metal remixes of X themes...
but this...
this one fits perfectly with your style. Keep on rockin' dude!
It actually ended up being a tad slower compared to the original 'cause those crazy synth solos just sounded completely bonkers at 160 BPM :p
@@StoneMcKnuckle I really don't mind that it's slower to the actual theme, because the way the tempo and arrangement goes gave this underrated theme the justice it deserves :D

The mix is amazing on this one. Best cover of this song by far. Awesome job! You captured what the original was going for to it's full potential in my opinion.
You are the best dawg
Oh yea I was waiting for someone to make a rock version of launch otpus
Also thanks for the remixes that you make 0:33
This have so much potential! Mega Man X3 - Gravity Beetle
Metaltool just did an AWESOME job with that one recently. Check it out!
Any way to get these re uploaded without drums in them lol

Been waiting for this for sooooo long man, since im subbed to this channel, 4 years or more. Ty and keep doing this stuff. 👍🎉
