I am not even remotely kidding when I say Lower Brinstar is one of my all time favorites from the gaming industry. This is so beautifully done. It actually gave me goosebumps.
It's funny... Upper Brinstar and lower Norfair get all the attention, but Lower Brinstar and Upper Norfair are the tracks I go to more than any others.
This is freaking awesome. No offense to others, but all remixes of Super Metroid soundtracks I found on YT, being good in their own ways, miss something important in the original ones.
This is such an amazing rendition, stays very true to the original version in terms of ominous percussion, which really adds to the atmosphere of the original game. The instrument choice in this rendition is spot-in imo. Synths for keyboard, and a well emulated shakuhachi really cements the atmosphere the original was going for. Honestly, I’d be really happy if you guys did more science stuff, to put it simply
You definitely hit the original spot on. This sounds just like a high quality version of it. Very nicely done. It's still amazing how a song can be beautiful but also ominous at the same time.
This is a greater level of quality & professionalism than I would expect from Nintendo if they made a full price remake of Super Metroid today. Words cannot describe how deep to my core this hits.
Thanks! As a Metroid fan myself, I'm glad these versions resonate with others. As for Nintendo, can only hope they won't shut me down for making covers of their stuff...
@@Synt5 Nintendo _can't_ take down covers of their music (legally, at least). I'm sure they'd love to, but covers are protected under all forms of copyright law.
Man, this is incredible! The whole soundtrack NEEDS to be remastered this way. Most of the orchestral arrangements don't get the original feeling of the tracks, but this really nails it. I would definitely buy such a full soundtrack. And I almost never say such a thing.
Thanks! I try to stick very close to the originals, but I generally reinterpret the sounds according to indirect cues or references to the aesthetics of the era. For example, to get the reference to process the sounds in this version, I took inspiration from Vangelis' "Antartica" and Ryuichi Sakamoto's "Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence" , two beautiful soundtrack themes that evoke a sense of desolation, with sparse sounds and huge ambiances, which I thought would fit Lower Brinstar pretty well. For more accurate versions, but in the same vibe of remastering, you should probably also check out the Super Metroid Ost restorations on The Brickster's channel, which are pretty good in their own right. Cheers!
@@Synt5 That's a very neat approach. I myself tried for some time to remake some tracks, exactly with the same feel, but as if they were played live with "real" instruments. I checked your suggestion, and the tracks are also really really good sounding as far as I heard for now, thanks!
Man I'm sitting here in awe with how good the instruments sound compared to the original, all while staying true to the original spirit of the music. Fantastic job
Literally can’t decide if I like this rendition or the original more, rare to say that one. Absolutely love the sample set you used in context. Makes me feel like I’m on a huge, thriving forest on another planet, and something is lurking in the shadows.
Brinstar will always remain in my heart as gaming most beautiful place just because of the music. Nowadays when I play any game underground specially sci-fi, I play it by heart
I can't believe this doesn't have more views. This is simply amazing. I grew up loving this game, the battery on my cartridge was bad so I could only play for so long before the save data corrupted or I was forced to leave the game on and a power surge would cause me to lose my progress. You've done a great service to the original from true Metroid fan I want to thank you for this amazing remix. You have amazing talent. Keep up the great work!! *EDIT* This is also my favorite song in the game. 💕
This is epic! This could almost be played at a melodic house rave and nobody would notice it is game music 😅. Stellar original piece as well and a great rendition 2:03 Also the calm consistency at which you play these rifts is so optimal and displays a great feeling of rhythm.
Phenomenally done. The spirit of the original communicated through a crisp and dreamy 80's sci-fi/fantasy motif. Smooth. Spellbinding. Only needs harder hitting bass, especially on the note after the rest.
@@Synt5 You know what? I take back what I said about the bass. As it turns out my other sound system just sucked 😂 Also, please consider "The Waterfall" from the Super Castlevania soundtrack!
Yeah, I've been thinking about producing a couple more Metroid remakes. But I'd have to outdo myself to make a decent Lower Norfair though, with all those choirs and orchestal instruments... Thanks!
Hey there. The sound source was a white noise generated by the sound module (the black box above, Behringer model D, a clone of a Moog Minimoog). I used the Beatstep (the other box with the lights pads) to trigger the sound repeatedly in 16th notes (every light signals a new "trigger"). Later during mixing I shaped the sound further during mixing with a tape echo and a decay automation to achieve that sense of space. I choose to do it that way because it sounded the best. It might be quite intimidating info at first, I know, but if you have a basic keyboard, maybe you can achieve a similar result by using a hand clap sound (usually part of a drum set), and feed that into lots of reverb or echo (if your keyboard has onboard effects), or play it and it with an arpeggiator. Cheers!
This is amazing, I've been looking for something like this for quite some time. If you were able to recreate all of the tracks, somebody could probable make it into a romhack to include cd quality tracks. This plus the widescreen romhack would make the definitive version to replay Super Metroid.
The subbass is really good, ive got a 21 in a humongous box right behind my couch and its cookin with this one Everything else in the track is great too, i've listened to this on headphones a lot and just not noticed the bass til now
Thanks! To produce this cover, I was inspired by the sounds in Vangelis' Antarctica soundtrack, and I tried to emulate the same sense of space and isolation with the reverbs and effects.
Idk if you know, but modern everdrive for super Nintendo now can emulate a chip called the MSU-1 chip. Basicly allows cd quality audio in place of the original music (and also video). Super Metroid is one of the games that has some mods using it, however, if you were to ever recreate every track, I can absolutely see people using yours over literally every existing one.
Sure, I know the MSU-1, and would be thrilled to have someone take my remixes and inserting into the game. For now, I should aim to complete at least the main level tracks - maybe that could already be enough for a MSU-1 patch, who knows? Cheers!
what an astonishingly fantastic cover of my favorite metroid song of all time. this is the only cover of this song that comes close to the original for me.
Holy crap . this is amazing. Edit: Glad to see you guys are still making stuff I saw You have even newer videos than this i have not seen ! I remember years ago The first vid i saw from you guys Was the streets rage piano Cover
Man, this really deserves more views. I know how much work not only goes into composing, but recording and editing something like this into an entertaining video. Plus the composition is crisp and clean, awesome job man. Hope you get some more recognition for this kind of work moving forward.
Thanks for the kind comment. Yes, that does take a lot of work, but it's strangely rewarding. Thankfully, I'm not in a rush to make these, so I take the time to get everything right. Cheers
I Am Speechless, DUDW IT"S FLIPPN PERFECT! TRULY I Bought this game NEW When RELEASED And YES THE SOUNDTRACKS ARE THE BEST IN HISTORY But You CAPTURED The Feeling I Had As A Child Playing This. Please Oh Please This Song With The Chorus Of Thee AH,... AH,... Bum Bum, ... Bum Bum Please Remix That Part With Chrono Trigger Schalas Theme Or Bottom Of The Night! PLEASE W?B I SUBBEDJUST BECAUSE CHILDHOOD ME SCREAMED AT ME TO NOW TO REPLAY ! TY SO MUCH YOUR AMAZING!
Your remasters should be used in the MSU1 patches for Super Metriod. MSU1 allows the game to have high quality CD audio on a game if patched and of course only done with a SD2SNESS flash cart
Spot on job true to the atmosphere of the game and your attention to detail in keeping with the original even dropping out certain instruments as it transitions is really cool, its a pleasure to hear the original remastered so well and with such complementing instrument choices, well done indeed! also if its your kind of thing it would be really interesting to hear your rendition of a track from quantum fighter (an nes game) some really unusual tracks in that one, if not chrono trigger has some amazing tracks, corridors of time, secret of the forest etc, and one more interesting choice would be from a game called skyblazer on the snes, you'll either love it or hate it ha ha but definitely an obscure and interesting ost. Just thought id throw some interesting and unusual ideas out there. but whatever you choose anything you make for us to hear is appreciated so please keep em coming!
Hi again! I could probably do a few remakes from Chrono Trigger this way, but I have to make sure they'd really stand out from the million other remixes out there, and that takes significant time and effort, but still I'd be inclined to do it. Quantum Fighter and other 8 bit games would demand a different approach: since they don't use samples, the reference of timbre to produce a CD-like remaster like the the Super Metroid tracks would be tricky. But it can be done. I know Skyblazer, thought it was really cool back in the day, but can't remember the music - I'll definitely check it out! Finally, I'm all in for obscure OSTs - it could really be an interesting path to explore, as so many other channels only focus on the mainstream (FF, Chrono Trigger, DK, etc). Thanks for the suggestion!
@@Synt5 ha ha my thinking exactly about obscure tracks. I get where you are coming from with the samples will bare that in mind in future. Skyblazer is a funny one you can hear the instrument choices so clearly but the rhythm can be chaotic and hard to reproduce, very unique style though. The "temple infernus" and "beginning of the journey" stand out in my mind from that game. will be keeping an eye on your content for sure!
@Garyth Mardellis I just wanted to let you know that I've moved forward with the "obscure tracks" idea. I've just posted the first cover in what I suspect will become a series of videos - a song from Super Binball Behind the Mask for the SNES. In time, when I figure out a good approach to take on 8-bit titles, I should try the Quantum Fighter Stage 1 you suggested, as well as other NES and Master System songs I've been flirting with. Cheers!
@@Synt5 That's great man! I'm stoked to hear you're moving into obscure ost territory. I would honestly be thrilled to listen to your take on a quantum fighter ost, one of my favorite 8 bit soundtracks for sure. Thanks for keeping me posted and I look forward to what is coming!
@@garythmardellis1289 The problem with 8-bit osts is that you don't get the timbral cues you'd normally get from sample-based systems like the SNES, so you have to rely entirely on the music to find good production templates. The Quantum Fighter is a cool challenge: it is surely 80's sounding, so I am already having a few ideas. For example, that "drop" in QF's Stage 1 music with that low, sustained bass note right before the music repeats itself reminds me of a similar drop in The Bolshoi's 1986 single Sunday Morning at 3:43 (or 3:40 in the ext version). So I keep collecting references such as this one until I feel I have enough to guide my versions. Cheers!
Cara! você me fez se emocionar com este som perfeito, essa musica e uma das que eu mais amo, estou muito emocionado com seu trabalho, está de PARABÉNS!
Thanks! In time, I plan to do all the main stage themes, that one should be included as well, maybe as a medley with the more tense "Space Pirates appear" theme. Cheers!
Yeah, that one shakuhachi... So, when recording the guiding tracks for the video, I used the JV-2080. But later during mixing I kept the midi and replaced the sound with the shakuhachi from the E-mu Proteus 3 module, using an Emu sample bank from Digital Sound Factory. I applied EQ and reverb, but what you hear is essentially E-mu P3. The thing is, E-mu has a long history with shakuhachis since the Emulator II (= the Enigma flute, Peter Gabriel's Sledgehammer, etc), but that specific sample from the Proteus 3 has a different nuance to it. When choosing the samples to be used in the game, composers had to take into account the size of each sample, so they used a very short flute sample (taken from the Proteus 1/2), and programmed the modulation and volume expression for the melody in Lower Brinstar. In the Proteus 3, the shak sample is much longer, and already contained much of the same vibrato and volume expression that the original flute sound in SM was trying to convey via programming. However, despite the Proteus 3 module was already available in 1994, it would not be a viable option to be used in the game due to the size of the sample. Since my version is basically an exercise of speculative interpretation, I thought it would be a perfect fit to expand on the supposed original intention for Lower Brinstar.
@@Synt5 Wow. This is honestly one of the most awesome and insightful comments I've ever read on TH-cam. Thank you for sharing your valuable knowledge and information! Your attention to detail and creative expression here is epic.
![Super Metroid OST - Upper Brinstar Theme (Green / Overgrown Vegetation) [HD Audio Remake/Remaster]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/GfCHqIVwlZI/mqdefault.jpg)
I am not even remotely kidding when I say Lower Brinstar is one of my all time favorites from the gaming industry. This is so beautifully done. It actually gave me goosebumps.
Thanks! Please check out the Bandcamp page, you can download the track and listen to it without YT compression. Cheers
It's funny... Upper Brinstar and lower Norfair get all the attention, but Lower Brinstar and Upper Norfair are the tracks I go to more than any others.
@@danielsank2286love lower norfair/magmoor caverns too
I listen to lower brinstar on loop for hours at a time regularly. it's such an amazing piece of music,
Brinstar Green, Red, Galactic Warrior, Maridia Water.
All literally some of my favourite music of any type
Dread was awesome and FAST, but this vibe is what it was missing… the slow creep of the unknown.
This is freaking awesome. No offense to others, but all remixes of Super Metroid soundtracks I found on YT, being good in their own ways, miss something important in the original ones.
You'll maybe like this one m.th-cam.com/video/9bKqUd5Qc1U/w-d-xo.html
@@franklemmer5415 Thanks for your recommendation. I think that piece is good in a similar way indeed.
I understand, the originals have something of that magic surrounding the creation of this game.
i agree. almost all covers lose what the original had, and i almost always love the originals significantly more. this one though...
They lack the emotion of mystery and fear
This is as close to perfect as you can get for Lower Brinstar. Goodness this is marvelous
Thank you for listening! Download links are available through Bandcamp.
Couldn't agree more!

I rly wanted that Ghost of Tachunga guy to bust out his rendition of Brinstar during that PS conference while playing his Shakuhachi
This absolutely sets the atmosphere for a swampy and mysterious environment. The transition from a lively jungle to this somber melody is amazing.
I can hear Quiet Robe talking in my mind with this.
This is fantastic! You really captured the creepy, alien vibe of the original track.
Thanks!
You definitely hit the original spot on. This sounds just like a high quality version of it. Very nicely done. It's still amazing how a song can be beautiful but also ominous at the same time.

Just came from upper brinstar, this kicks ass too!
Thanks!

Found this on my feed and love it, and it's also giving me major Xenogears vibes, and that's a good thing
best version so far
Loved the rendition. Great job!

Absolutely fantastic reimagining.

Exploring a pit called: "Sheol" deep within the bowels of the earth, a place where we all must go soon.
How do you make that echoing drum sound at 0:16? Sorry idk shit about shit but I love music & bought a keyboard.
Hey there. The sound source was a white noise generated by the sound module (the black box above, Behringer model D, a clone of a Moog Minimoog). I used the Beatstep (the other box with the lights pads) to trigger the sound repeatedly in 16th notes (every light signals a new "trigger"). Later during mixing I shaped the sound further during mixing with a tape echo and a decay automation to achieve that sense of space. I choose to do it that way because it sounded the best. It might be quite intimidating info at first, I know, but if you have a basic keyboard, maybe you can achieve a similar result by using a hand clap sound (usually part of a drum set), and feed that into lots of reverb or echo (if your keyboard has onboard effects), or play it and it with an arpeggiator. Cheers!
This is my absolute favorite rendition of Lower Brinstar. :)
the sustain on the reed/wind instruments is superb
AWESOME!!!!
This is amazing, I've been looking for something like this for quite some time. If you were able to recreate all of the tracks, somebody could probable make it into a romhack to include cd quality tracks. This plus the widescreen romhack would make the definitive version to replay Super Metroid.

Maybe you could do Crateria Surface when the rain stops and the awesome theme plays.
Thanks! In time, I plan to do all the main stage themes, that one should be included as well, maybe as a medley with the more tense "Space Pirates appear" theme. Cheers!
@@Synt5 Cool, though i hope it is it's own thing separate from the Space Pirates Appear theme. Regardless i look forward to it!
superbe travail
merci!
Great!
Sois unos genios.
Wow! This is incredible. What do you use for the flute/shakuhachi sound? It is absolutely astounding
Yeah, that one shakuhachi... So, when recording the guiding tracks for the video, I used the JV-2080. But later during mixing I kept the midi and replaced the sound with the shakuhachi from the E-mu Proteus 3 module, using an Emu sample bank from Digital Sound Factory. I applied EQ and reverb, but what you hear is essentially E-mu P3. The thing is, E-mu has a long history with shakuhachis since the Emulator II (= the Enigma flute, Peter Gabriel's Sledgehammer, etc), but that specific sample from the Proteus 3 has a different nuance to it. When choosing the samples to be used in the game, composers had to take into account the size of each sample, so they used a very short flute sample (taken from the Proteus 1/2), and programmed the modulation and volume expression for the melody in Lower Brinstar. In the Proteus 3, the shak sample is much longer, and already contained much of the same vibrato and volume expression that the original flute sound in SM was trying to convey via programming. However, despite the Proteus 3 module was already available in 1994, it would not be a viable option to be used in the game due to the size of the sample. Since my version is basically an exercise of speculative interpretation, I thought it would be a perfect fit to expand on the supposed original intention for Lower Brinstar.
@@Synt5 Wow. This is honestly one of the most awesome and insightful comments I've ever read on TH-cam. Thank you for sharing your valuable knowledge and information! Your attention to detail and creative expression here is epic.
