Ah yes. This particular remix got me through my sophomore year finals in high school. Just sitting in the computer lab and bumping this while researching. Great stuff
Unfortunately not all of us are nearly rich enough or experienced enough to fund and/or make this project. But there have been an 8-bit version of megaman 8, so maybe this isn’t impossible
Anyone who whined that the X8 soundtrack wasn't "as good as the 16-bit games" should listen to this video. Seriously. This is beautifully executed and, as far as I can tell, stays true to the original tune AND the sound limitations and instruments of the 16-bit Rockman X games.
wow this video came about 10 years ago, when i used to play megaman x8....those were my golden days...school..video games..cartoons..life was reall good and peaceful...and it hurts realizing you cant get back to those days 😢😢
Haha yeah, I can definitely relate for sure. I have to fight for time to do that kind of stuff anymore... Squeeze it in where it never seems long enough, or else sacrifice a bunch of sleep and struggle trying to function the next day. Sometimes that's worth it, though. Hang in there and try to make the most of what you have! :) Thanks for the comment.
@@ReavoEnd man this video of yours is a real gem...it took me back to my some real good times...i can come here whenever i want to feel good so thanks to you too for uploading such video ❤
Man!! that's the most beaultiful snes style song that i have ever listened!! it's trully awesome!!! i've got tears all over my face! thanks for the great piece my friend ;)
Yeah, it sounds pretty cool, but I think for the main sound of the song (the opening of the song that plays throughout it) makes it seem like the song would sound better in X1 soundfont with that main opening sound using the same guitar sound from X1's Stage Select theme.
X9 should just be, well, *X9* and not try to be Megaman X1 - 3 with the snes style, Megaman 11 looks good I wanna see them do that same style but with X9
Totally badass even after all these years!!! 😁😁😁🙂 I love it *I like it even more than the actual track from X8, in which I'll admit it was good, I always wanted to think about what it would sound like if it was on snes, not that a ps1 version wouldn't be bad, but hearing it on the snes soundfont of the x games would make it more fitting 🙂
@megamanxz1 Thanks haha. Yeah it's true, the instrument clarity is higher than the SNES would produce, only because the samples I used are direct rips from the game's memory. When the game itself uses those samples, it adds its own set of effects to them, from varying forms of reverb to chorus to vibrato, and also some inadvertent "effects" that cause the samples to be rendered with less clarity than they have as stored in memory, if that makes any sense. If this could be converted to SPC form..
@SabreMage Then it could be played back with the same sort of more "muddied" levels of sample/instrument clarity that sounds more like it's playing on the SNES. Interestingly, it's possible to extract the original MMX1-3 OSTs from their SNES roms as tracker files, which can then be played back with the clarity of the original samples. It sounds really good, and quite different from how it sounds in-game!
@Overwa7ch Permission denied, at least for now. This arrangement was created especially for use in GameDragon's MMX Engine, which will be a public, open-source engine upon release, and will come with a demo level or two. Because the demo will be open-source, I'm sure anyone will then be free to use this arrangement of Jakob's Elevator in their creations.
@HyperKenny1991 Yeah haha I've been thinking about that since I finished this. Would be interesting, especially to capture the few 3D elements in 2D. Avalanche Yeti's ride chaser stage in 2D would be really interesing, since there was only one throughout all of MMX 1-3.
Someday someone could make Mega Man X9 but in the style of the SNES trilogy with the same instruments from each MMX game (1, 2 and 3) Then Mega Man X10 in the PlayStation Style with music elements from X4, 5 and 6 I dare to see someone make Axl into a 32-Bit Character since people have made him into 16-Bit Sigma could be threatening again, Ailla could have a bigger role in the stories and not be annoying, The party members in Command Mission could be characters in those games too as new Maverick Hunters, Vile would have his own team of Repolid killers with him being the leader, Layer’s crush with Zero could gradually increase to the point Zero notices I could go on but you definitely get my point
@drn000 I think that if you'd make it the same length as the original, reformated it into .ogg file and named it the same, the game would propably take it, although I'm not sure, I think I'll give it a try. In case you're wondering, the ingame tracks (at least in PC version) are stored in ogg folder wherever you instaled the game.
I hope that Capcom realizes that Mega Man X was best suited for the Snes/pc with MIDI tracks and if they make a sequel make it 16bit with a MIDI rock soundtrack.
@SabreMage If Anything I think It would be Changes around COMPLETELY I would think that the Avalanche Yeti and the Gigabolt stages would Revert mainly back to Platforming. Just a hunch, It's prefer it that way too xD
A MIDI file was not used. I transposed the song by ear, imported instruments, edited effects and etc. directly within FL Studio.
I salute you
@@theshellderinslowbrostail5422 Me too❤️
Very based
THATS INSANE
Sick work. No wonder the music note sounds a lil different, cool style bruh
This proves that Capcom still has the classic Megaman music intact. this sounds so natural like it was meant to be played back in the SNES days
Wow, I thought this was going to use X1's instruments. Good call going with X3's soundfont.
WOW, like, this was released in 2010 and I am seeing this 8 YEARS AFTER ITS RELEASE!? I ONLY MET THIS REMIX NOW!? Oh my, that's seriously amazing!
Ah yes. This particular remix got me through my sophomore year finals in high school. Just sitting in the computer lab and bumping this while researching. Great stuff
It would be really awesome if someone managed to convert Megaman X8 into an SNES-style game.
X8 would certainly be easier to do that to than X7.
Unfortunately not all of us are nearly rich enough or experienced enough to fund and/or make this project. But there have been an 8-bit version of megaman 8, so maybe this isn’t impossible
MMX8 SFC ?
Edu TV how’s that going
@Edu TV Do you have any screenshots on any forums?
It reminds me of Tunnel Rhino stage.
its totally rhino stage
yeah these are MMX3 style guitars
Now I want to hear an Xtreme version of this to see if it'll sound like that version
tribute to Bob Marley this
"I shot the sheriff"
No
This is ...Incredible
This sounds like Megaman X2's music tracks mood, yet it also reminds me of when Zero went to rescue X in X3's intro stage. Very neatly pulled off! :)
holy crap this is fucking epic
I will stay in this elevator forever.
Holy shit, this is amazing. Where the hell has this been all my damn life?
Hidden among TH-cam's billions of videos, waiting for you to discover it...
This song makes me high in the emotion that I'm on a quest to save someone with X-Buster and Saber at hand...
I'm here just for the MMX8 16-bit demake
I can't believe that despite the years it still sounds so good, that means it was really made with love and is well made, I LOVE IT!!!!
X8 Demake def worth looking into if you still round Reavo. Waiting on Jakob onwards developed next update(s)
@@bayzul7405 Huh. Neat! I'll check it out, thanks

You have a criminally low sub count for how good this is.
DreadnoughtDT i know right terrible music gets popular but not this! I just hate society
HeroMaster 2028 dont hate society, we're not all that bad
WHERE HAS THIS BEEN ALL MY LIFE???
Right here, waiting for your ears to stumble upon it. :]
...Going up.

Dear god... this is beyond awesome!
Man!! that's the most beaultiful snes style song that i have ever listened!! it's trully awesome!!! i've got tears all over my face! thanks for the great piece my friend ;)
Thank you! It's comments like yours that inspire me... Someday soon I hope to create more music like this.

I am going to listen this video ten minutes before The New Year ;D
Yoooooooo dat retro guitar so clean man great job on this 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
0:14 AWESOME! The beggining was kinda OK, I guess? But oh boy, the rest is... *tries to find a good adjective* ... *MIND-BLOWING* !
This should be the intro stage of Mega Man X9, with this very track arrangement.
X9 should just be, well, *X9* and not try to be Megaman X1 - 3 with the snes style, Megaman 11 looks good I wanna see them do that same style but with X9
Wow 8 years and you still reply to comments, that's crazy
Zero: so wait, this time I can kill a girl....ON PURPOSE!!!! "
This mix it's a truly nostalgia trip for me, it's been 12 years and still sounds great.
It's wild to me how this one-off project from way back resulted in something people still find value in to this day. Thanks for listening!
X3 would be even better. That Toxic Seahorse/Gravity Beetle/Blast Hornet awesomeness.
First SNES remix I heard back then. Good times. (':
Absolutely awesome.
wow, one can tell a lot of time and dedication went into making this :D perfect
"Jacob this is not your house"
Man it's 6 years since I first seen this video, I really forgot how good this remix was. I'm glad I came back to this
no words for describe that
the old times... i miss megaman x games...
My God, this is amazing.
Automatically subscribed.
AMAAAAAZINNG
Please make the OST for the Megaman X8 demake
Muito pika, nostalgia demais slc.
I love it! It sounds AWESOME
Good choice of instruments, sir. Very nice remix
The one dislike is one scrapped Reploid oh yes. This is really good! Memories of the old MMX days are flowing back!! ^.^
Whoa! This is wonderful!
nice track hope to see more megaman x tracks like this
Awesome Style!
Omg this is awesome
Wonderful masterpiece!
Oh Man! I'd LOVE to See Megaman X 8 Snes Style xD
This is amazing
i can rock out to this all day CX
To me this is the real theme song for the elevator
Totally badass even after all these years!!! 😁😁😁🙂 I love it *I like it even more than the actual track from X8, in which I'll admit it was good, I always wanted to think about what it would sound like if it was on snes, not that a ps1 version wouldn't be bad, but hearing it on the snes soundfont of the x games would make it more fitting 🙂

@daveeeey Indeed, thanks =D about twelve hours worth of transcription work here. ^^
an awesome version of a awesome song ^^
Holy Shit that is epic! xD Nice job :D
+pizzaschnoesel Thanks!
Because most elevator rides don't last long enough for the song to actually kick in.
This is an awesome arrangement! Do you mind if I make an extended version?
QuadFactor Works for me, so long as you give credit and link to this video. Thanks!
OMG this good I can't wait for the X collection for the Nintendo switch so I can play X8 again
@SabreMage Then it could be played back with the same sort of more "muddied" levels of sample/instrument clarity that sounds more like it's playing on the SNES.

Good times, remember when I was playing this level in PC. :D
amazing!
wow love this music
WHAT THE F___, THIS IS AWESOME!!
EPPIIIICCCCCCCCCC !!!!! 5 ***** !!!!
It gets a bit noise-heavy at times when all the instruments are playing at once, but when it works it works really well.

Awesome.
I never played X8, but if music like this is in it, I'm sold. Also... She's stuck on my ela-elavator. - Florida
Yes, most of the instrumentation here is performed with X2 samples.
dear god, its awesome, if capcom decided to make all of the megaman x games in the snes style, this would have totally been in X8!!!!
Pretty damn good! :)
OH my god!!!!!
You did this by EAR?
Very good work.~
...AND I FUCKING LOVE IT.
awesome
DAMN
Best elevator theme ever(especially when u put it at 1.25 speed) ur welcome.
@HyperKenny1991 Yeah haha I've been thinking about that since I finished this. Would be interesting, especially to capture the few 3D elements in 2D. Avalanche Yeti's ride chaser stage in 2D would be really interesing, since there was only one throughout all of MMX 1-3.
I PREFER THE ORIGINAL VERSION BUT THIS ONE IS VERY GOOD TOO. EXCELENT JOB!
Great.
Dayum. Dis sounds gud
There's a 30minute extension of this remix!
Is there? Cool! But I couldn't find it, hmm.
Reavo End A guy called QuadFactor extended it , it probably won't be it, but it sounded very similar.
Someday someone could make Mega Man X9 but in the style of the SNES trilogy with the same instruments from each MMX game (1, 2 and 3)
Then Mega Man X10 in the PlayStation Style with music elements from X4, 5 and 6
I dare to see someone make Axl into a 32-Bit Character since people have made him into 16-Bit
Sigma could be threatening again, Ailla could have a bigger role in the stories and not be annoying, The party members in Command Mission could be characters in those games too as new Maverick Hunters, Vile would have his own team of Repolid killers with him being the leader, Layer’s crush with Zero could gradually increase to the point Zero notices
I could go on but you definitely get my point
Edu TV I didn’t know that at the time but cool!
Edu TV Ooh! I’m excited to see videos about it!
Sorry for double post,but seriously
This rules
Like's X3 music style
100 likes and no dislikes whatsoever. i guess this means the mavericks are no more
@drn000 I think that if you'd make it the same length as the original, reformated it into .ogg file and named it the same, the game would propably take it, although I'm not sure, I think I'll give it a try.

I hope that Capcom realizes that Mega Man X was best suited for the Snes/pc with MIDI tracks and if they make a sequel make it 16bit with a MIDI rock soundtrack.
Holy crap. This sounds really X3-ish!
Oh, yes!!!
I've never been to Atlanta, but if I ever find myself in the area, I'll try using this as my personal elevator music.
This really is excellent work man. Think you can do more in this same style? :D
fucking fire
nice!!!
@SabreMage If Anything I think It would be Changes around COMPLETELY I would think that the Avalanche Yeti and the Gigabolt stages would Revert mainly back to Platforming. Just a hunch, It's prefer it that way too xD
@SabreMage I was wondering the same thing. I say the new set up encountered a glitch and posted my comment twice.
