      The Other M music as a whole was a disappointment compared to Super, Fusion, or the Primes.
      Did it even have any original themes? Every game has rearranged Ridley’s theme, but the others I called out have plenty of originals too. I only played Other M once (and that was too many times) but at that time I only recall remakes of known Metroid tracks.

    I actually found that for all three of these you definitely got the feel of the series as a whole. Every single one I was like "huh, yeah that DOES sound like it would be in that game". The Zelda one I actually thought would fit more in a modern Zelda like Breath of the Wild, and the Pokemon one may not have been in a gym but it most definitely would have been in a cave or some other dungeon. The Metroid one would have been another boss fight; the Ridley theme is just too famous that they have to use it in a Ridley battle 🤣

    I love every one of these songs because they fit the games so well! I really want you to compose the score for a whole game now! Your whole approach to paying attention to vibes and themes that would accompany the gameplay and being so intentional with tones is so amazing. It's inspiring to see that not only are you an amazing instumentalist, but your approach to writing and crafting music for a specific purpose is on a whole other level. You would bring a lot of value to any team hoping to have the music add to the level of fun of any game. Hopefully this video launches your video game composer career!

      Now I'm just thinking about how awesome it would be if you were to compose music for a video game and to have you guys make a documentary about the whole process because how you get every tone is interesting, and even seeing your thought process behind the kind of song you want to create and the tones you hope to achieve is fascinating! I would seriously watch a feature-length behind-the-scenes documentary of you guys making music for a whole video game.

    Good stuff. I feel like that Zelda track could've used a bit of reverb to help tie everything together and place it in the world, but that impression may just be my groggy brain failing to process things properly.

    It was really interesting to see (and hear) how Emily approached music creation as opposed to demoing pedals.

    Woah Em!, that Metroid toon is on point! light years ahead of the stock war drum bite they used. I love how much fun you guys have making these videos, there's some excellent advise for Sound director and effects creatives working in the gaming industry too!. Amazing work :)

    I know this is an older video at this point, but subscription earned. I came across your channel through a short that was on my recommended feed. This video stuck out to me because of the video game connections, and I loved the concept of this video. After checking out a few other videos, I had to subscribe. Great content, keep it up!

    Just discovered this channel. Glad I did.
    Yes, Pokémon remixes the gym theme from the first game in every game; however, in Black2/White2 each gym gets its own specific remix. The Ground gym has a cool bassline, the Flying gym has heroic horns, the Bug gym has symths, etc. My favorite is the Poison gym which has a punk version complete with a chant.

    The Metroid boss music is the same time signature, rhythm, and same first 3 notes as the Mission Impossible theme, you nailed it
