🥷🥷🥷This version of "Terrible Beat" is heavy on the expansion side, particularly because of how short the original is. It was meant to be fast and frantic, but I wanted to add some more meat onto the bone to beef it up. Here's my fully fleshed out rendition to give this kinetic boss theme a bit more muscle.
You are amazing man listen to a lot of your tracks. I pretty much understood a lot of what made these game tracks and composers great and us some far more than what I expected. A-Class
I don't know why I dislike remixes with expansions, except when it's official, or when compossed by the original compositor. I think it's because feels out of place, like they added notes that aren't in the original or don't sound like the original. But I'm also hypocritical when I hear Touhou fan music, because they tend to add stuff that aren't in the original themes. PD: I'm not a composer, nor have knowledge about music theory.
Not really, no. At the time, they thought ripping off iconic characters was fine. Turns out, not so kosher. I base my music off the original 1.0 version of the game, but afterwards, there were several revisions to the game that changed a lot things, including these characters.
Love this! My one gripe about Terrible Beat is that it was to short and this not only fixed the issue, it sounds like it belongs in the original game. It’s perfect. You nailed this. Thanks for the awesome work.
Amazing! Loved the expanded bits. Also, to this day, I still don't know how SEGA didn't get sued for having the Terminator, Spiderman, Batman and Godzilla in this game.
Good luck with getting copyright laws upheld internationally let alone have their own government punish them for doing something they themselves didn't consider wrong at the time. Although knowing Joe Musashi is a bigger badass than all of them combined still makes me grin to this day.
They managed to keep Terminator, but in later revisions Spiderman was made pink, Batman was changed to a bat demon, and Godzilla was changed to be a skeleton with guts for some reason.
The only music i hear in shock when i learn of Spiderman's crossover to enemy territory, before it was revealed to be a clever disguise by Batman. the treachery!
Was waiting patiently for this one and it's finally here. I knew this was going to be fire as soon as it started and I wasn't wrong. I loved how you continued with the fast pace energy of the beat and didn't stray too far from the original, using the original instruments mainly. Keep it up as always, can't wait to hear what's next!!
@MaestroDraven Thrilled and love the work you have done. This one, chinatown and ninja step are my current faves and I do enjoy others such as the shinobi, run or die and like a wind. Excellent Work!
I was waiting for you to do this theme for a very long time (even before you started your remixes of the Shinobi OST) and you *delivered* Really feels like something that would come out of a remake of this game, I especially like how you added more buildup in the beginning, and the expansions were a great way to keep the fast pace going. I also like how you mostly used only instruments from the OG theme. And as always it sounds so clean... Great job, Maestro!
WOAAA!!!! A loooot better than I expected, my friend. You are the BEST! This is by far my prefered track in this game, thanks for bringing my best memories playing it :D
I don't know how I missed this, but I'm glad I came back to check it out before I listen to Willow's theme (you know who I mean);Terrible Beat is probably my favorite track of this whole game, and so to hear it remixed, expanded, and enhanced in such a fantastic way is a dream come true; it is a shame that the original was so short While the original Terrible Beat is the kind of song you'd hear as the intro to a TV program, I'd imagine this to be like the "full version" - there's a lot more than just what the mainstream public knows by heart, and even though we may not know all the lyrics outside of the chorus, it is such a fantastic tune that you can't NOT dance to it I think I can really imagine this version of Terrible Beat in a remastered version of Revenge of Shinobi where the bosses themselves are remixed from their simple attack patterns and given extra abilities or a brand new phase to fit in with the newest era of indie revisits to classic games a-la Sonic Mania The very beginning of the expanded portion was probably my favorite original part of the composition, as it just transitioned away from the fast-paced original so seamlessly... oooh, I love this track
Thanks again! For this one, I didn't want to hit the ground running like the original did, so I tried to imagine what an extended mix might sound like if it ever existed. From there, it was just a simple move to create a buildup to the chorus. Secretly, I wanted people to wonder if it would still have the same impact when the original song kicked in. I wanted them to be nervous a bit.
Great! You’ve nailed the genesis soundfount and compositions really well. I’ve got a new headphone + amp and these are sounding awesome. Waiting for Chinatown.
Round 1 Boss: Blue Lobster Joe: Blue Lobster! Where is the Ninja Master?! Blue Lobster: Ha ha ha! NEO ZEED will conquer this world! Give yourself up and die! Round 2 Boss: Shadow Dancer Joe: Shadow Dancer?! I killed you! Shadow Dancer: I am not to be felled so easily! I will kill you here! Round 3 Boss: Supercomputer Joe: This must be the drone that is controlling the international military! If I destroy it, NEO ZEED will be powerless in Japan! Round 4 Boss: "Hulkinator" Joe: What the?! One of NEO ZEED's robot warriors... I won't let you stop me from saving Naoko! Round 5 Boss: Missile Drone Tanker Joe: Another one of NEO ZEED's weapons... I have to destroy the power supply before it reaches New York! Round 6 Boss: Spider-Man/Batman Joe: Who are you?! Spider-Man: NEO ZEED will rule this world! (After Spider-Man is defeated...) Batman: You cannot destroy me! Round 7 Boss: Godzilla Joe: What is this?! A robot monster?! No matter, I will destroy you!
I remember hearing an expanded track like this before. Was that you? Only this one seems better. Like the drums and effects are even better than the one I heard.
Man, this beat is anything *but* terrible! 😎👍 (and yes, I'm aware that the word "terrible" can also mean "causes one to feel terror", which is most likely the intended meaning for this music's title; just let me have my dumb little joke, ok? 😅)
Ngl, this sounds like you took a Smash Bros rendition of Terrible Beat (which doesn't exist sadly because I can see Yuzo making this for Joe if he made it into Smash) and made it a Genesis tune.
I must ask, what happened to your older Expanded and Enhanced version of this song? This newer one is good, but if my memory serves correctly, I prefer your older one and wouldn't mind hearing it again.
They sidna good jib because the origialnal is so good that its fine being short with nothing added so now if u add something it better be good and not screw it up so this add on. Is ok and not bad at all but i still orefer the original but this ones production quality is awesome.

Your expansions sound perfect. Like it was meant to be in these tracks. Love your taste and your content as a Sega Veteran. Keep it up!
In my 36 years of life this is easily one of the best remixes I have ever heard

@@jonny-nava-367I'd just chalk it up to preference. I can be the same way at times but stuff of this quality is an exception for me.
You knew Zeed was becoming desprate by hiring Spiderman,The Terminator,Batman and Godzilla to take down Joe Musashi
Don't forget Rambo!
@@mehnas786 An army of rambo clones.
Shit still didn’t work 😂
How the fuck did he managed to hire Godzilla

After fighting against zoe musashi all those years zeed gave up and became DJ, which has had a successful career in
He whips his hair as he plays
Short but extremely effective fanfiction, thank you sir. o7
I love how in the night club in level 2, "Zeed" is literally plastered all over the wall. Like they aren't even trying to hide who they work for.
Wrong title, this is a Fantastic Beat 😎
Perhaps the best version of Terrible Beat for Revenge of Shinobi on TH-cam. Pure perfection!!!
Is there some lore behind why a T-800 Infiltrator, Spiderman, Batman and Godzilla were in this game that makes sense?
Not really, no. At the time, they thought ripping off iconic characters was fine. Turns out, not so kosher. I base my music off the original 1.0 version of the game, but afterwards, there were several revisions to the game that changed a lot things, including these characters.
@@MaestroDravenI am loving the track man. 🔥
@@FireBomberBassist - Thanks!
To this day, I still can't believe Spider-Man, Batman, and Godzilla were bosses 😂

@@freddywilliams9837 Also Sonny Chiba stopped being Joe in later versions.
Omg, you returned!! I thought this song disappeared from the interwebz forever.
Thank you based Maestro
I think it's a pretty good beat
Omg one of my favourite soundtrack from the game! Very well done as always! :D
Holy sh*t. This is amazing!!! Totally wasn't expecting this to be this godlike.
I'm loving the Parade of Bosses. Loving all the RoS remixes. Please keep it up.
Nice work. I like how you went with the original boss designs too, instead of the revisions.
Keeping it classy! Also, love ur work!!
The only music i hear in shock when i learn of Spiderman's crossover to enemy territory, before it was revealed to be a clever disguise by Batman. the treachery!

1:38 - 2:07 in my opinion, the best part of the song
Mine are 0:50 , 1:26, and 2:08
THAT WAS INCREDIBLE!!! I LOVE IT!!!
I should still have this game. Favorite song
The wait was 100% worth it. Killed it. Definitely gave this song the urgency of a boss fight! Another classic for the books!
@MaestroDraven Thrilled and love the work you have done. This one, chinatown and ninja step are my current faves and I do enjoy others such as the shinobi, run or die and like a wind. Excellent Work!
Tears flow from my eyes, is this a dream? amazing job!!!
WICKED!!💣💥💥💥💥💥
god damn ! incredible expansion !

Great job, Maestro!
Who knew that the Terminator, Spiderman and Batman were fighting a shinobi....
Thanks for remembering my childhood!
Always liked this boss theme and here you go making as good, if not better, than the original version.
1:26 goes crazy 🔥🔥
Awesome
WOAAA!!!! A loooot better than I expected, my friend. You are the BEST!
This is by far my prefered track in this game, thanks for bringing my best memories playing it :D
So far I am loving these versions of revenge of shinobis OST.....just waiting on sunrise blvd...gotta see how you do that one.
Quite the performance, Bravo! 👏
Oh my goooood this beat is *teeeerrrrribleeeeee!!!* 😱😱😱
You’re turning these gems into masterpieces!
The FIRST game to show the REAL power of MEGA DRIVE ! Ps. Regards from Brazil.
Amazing remix, my favorite with GG Shinobi - First Step.
LEGENDARY!
Can’t wait to see what you do with the shadow dancer album ….. Statue of Liberty 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

nice
es simplemente epico no puedo
legendary
Ngl, this sounds like you took a Smash Bros rendition of Terrible Beat (which doesn't exist sadly because I can see Yuzo making this for Joe if he made it into Smash) and made it a Genesis tune.
hire this guy to do the soundtrack for the new shinobi game.
Huge compliment thank you!
There will be?
Ohhh right. There will... For shinoby Streets of rage and golden Axe. Seem we are old dude ahah. But i m only 20
😮😮😮🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOH SHIT THAT EXPANSIOOOOOOOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would like to see a remaster of this not using samples from the genesis. Something a bit more epic orchestra would be awesome.

Do a mash up with find your flame for some extra flavor
Not a Terrible Beat. I'm going to use this song in my project without crediting you.
Your channel is bad and you should feel bad.
Fuckin yes................
This is awesome! Might give this a listen while I do a run of the dungeon in Blade and Sorcery, it’s just that damn cool!

I noticed that Godzilla doesn’t have any dorsal plates
