Phoenix Wright: Justice for All OBJECTION!

After having fun with the OBJECTION! theme from the first Ace Attorney game, I decided to go for the second one.  I really like this tune and this it's underrated in the series.  I stacked some extra claps on the backbeat because it just felt right!


Hope you guys enjoy the 2002 version.  This series has some great music!

Matthias Lakits Nice tune, and fun to listen to even if I've never played the Ace Attorney series... Do you like Okami? That game's music is incredible, it would be great if you could do an arrangement of it.

seerpea I had to use the YouTube version as I could not get an RSS feed going (for any of the last 3 shows, even though i had previously viewed prior 2) with Diamond or Weekster. Is there a different audio process used for YouTube from RSS feed? The voices were very muddled compared to the RSS feeds I was able to get the past month.

When I first started recording Objection! 2001, I thought to myself how fun it'd be to record a trilogy of Objection themes from Ace Attorney.  This one finishes it off.  I had a blast with these songs!

Cerulean City from Pokemon R/B/Y :]

I keep coming back to this classic soundtrack for a few reasons, but mainly because I really, really like the whole thing.  It has intense songs, cute songs, weird songs...it's probably the most diverse Game Boy soundtrack I know of.  Cerulean City reminds me of a care-free day and I had to see what I could do with it.  Some ad-lib happened towards the very end; hope you guys enjoy my version!

Christine Gallagher You know, this is one of the first tunes that come to mind when I think about my first experiences with Pokemon (or with gaming at all, really). Somehow, I never remembered that this was from Cerulean City. This really does sound amazing though.

It's been a while...Mega Man 2!

So about two-and-a-half years ago I did a version of of the Dr. Wily Stage theme.  It was a super-intense track and I had tons of fun embellishing the adrenaline-pumped NES version.  I don't know why it's taken me this long to get back to this game (probably the fact that there's hundreds of songs from hundreds of other games that I still want to do) but here's Metal Man's theme from MM2!


Are there any other Mega Man songs you'd like to see me do?  I know I have a few in mind :0)

Zelda: ALTTP Story theme

It's no secret that the SNES Legend of Zelda is one of my favorite games of all time, and this amazing theme opens the game in an awesome way.  I really love the chords in this song.  I've wanted to do this song for a really long time but was honestly confused on how I'd pull off the fast strings.  This time I decided to experiment, and I think it turned out better than I thought!  Someday I want to do every song from this classic game; though I could say that about a number of games :P


Let me know how you guys liked this rendition, and are there any other songs from A Link to the Past that you'd like to hear that I haven't done already?

I've missed doing font stories. This is a new one! I wrote another tonight, but I was dying to post this right away. I see it really cut up, fable-like, as an illustrated children's book. That is, if anyone wants to draw for it (*cough cough meowza hakk*)


I think it is funny to see a cute small animal talk so big about the world, so naive and self-centered. The world hasn't repositioned for the little baby yet. Who knows if it ever will? It is the way of the foxes.


Hope you like it!

Kristian Fischer I really like this. Gotta say, I was a little worried that the final scene would be the baby fox and its family snout deep in the crow's entrails. The actual ending was much better, though. "You may be clever, but I'm old, junior!"

Jesus Gutierrez The idea of two tricksters having a battle of wits was really fun and intriguing. Love the interaction between the baby fox and the crow and how even in the end there was a respect among them. Awesome job.

This has been a huge request for a long time; not just this song, but any song from the KH franchise.  Once I got my feet wet with these games, I finally felt like I could dive into the soundtrack and enjoy it!


Hope you guys like Traverse Town!  For those of you who've played KH, I know you've heard this song at least a thousand times :]

Edouard Lorenceau If you do KH themes, could you do battle songs? they're particularly epic. Preference on KH2 but in 1 there's the Halloween battle theme and the Monstro Battle theme that are amazing!
