The Alien's Lair is too fast for this style yet this soundtrack should be integrated on an MSU1 pack for Infidelity's Contra SNES port

[johancahyadi]

Very beautiful play 👍🏻

Would you mind covering another Contra, like Contra Force or Super Contra? And also Megamen X4 & X5

How does this not even have 1K views!? This is what this soundtrack was meant to sound like! Absolutely fantastic! 👏🏻👏🏻

Great music for my morning run; I flipped right over those potholes in the road.

This is EPIC! Contra was, is, and will forever be one the best games ever! Contra + Percussion Realm? What's not to love?!

[zubareus]

Cool, very unusual instruments for this type of covers. But I think the main drum kit with its straight rhythm ruins the atmosphere.

[HanemanHunters]

No ładnie rzępolicie. Fajnie, fajnie. Wspaniali z Was muzycy. Fajny hołd dla klasycznej gry.

Mi najbardziej do Contry pasuje metal, bo u Was to czuję jak bym grał w Crash Bandicoot.

[aarongrooves]

Wow, outstanding! Did you arrange all of the parts yourself? I can't imagine how long that took. And nice editing too!

[Jordan.MusicLab]

Баса хорошо было бы выкрутить побольше. А так - огонь

[flavio-neri]

One-man army performance. What a job! Thank you!!!

[Kevin_bd]

Great job! That spread gun was definitely bad-a

[Zstray]

Omg this is Bubble Bobble orchestra playing Contra theme!!

[commonsense]

That was way cool. It's been around 30 years since ive played that game but as soon as the music started it instantly took me back.

Great job on the arrangements. You really brought the music alive in a way I wasn't expecting. Great job with all of the overlays too 👍

It never occurred to me just how much the game developers stole from the Alien movies 😂

[Dthegreat]

Overlaying the vibraphone over the hallway at 3:54 was genius, great arrangements too

[EmmanuelSchonfeld]

Qué buenas versiones en "placas"!!! Saludos desde Argentina

[JustStaringOutWindow]

Wow this is amazing. I’m totally impressed with how you all manage the strange beats

[kevinhughes]
