Hey Patrons!

Ken's Theme is coming along well and sounding pretty awesome. I should have a first draft done today and have a preview for Tier 3+ Patrons up here really soon. Assuming all goes according to plan, I should have the video complete and up around Thursday or Friday.


I got pretty much the whole week off just to work on May Madness songs so I'm gonna be super busy this week! I've also decided on 2 more brand new songs that will join the line-up.


Firstly, if you follow me on Twitter, you may have seen a certain poll I posted a few weeks ago:



These are probably the top 3 requested songs right now, on Youtube it's mostly Hopes and Dreams (by a ridiculous amount), but on Twitter, Fire Emblem dominated, and surprisingly CROWNED barely nudged out H&D. Very intriguing. xD


So the reason I made the FE choice 'a Fire Emblem song' rather than one particular song, is because the FE requests are very, very scattered. Together We Ride is the obvious #1 but maybe a bit too obvious (and will show up on the GaMetal Begins album hopefully later this year anyways), so I wanted to go with something else, and decided on....




I think it's a solid choice. It's one of the more requested FE songs, and not as obvious as TWR, so I think this song will serve it's purpose of satisfying the FE fans for now.



Lastly, I said in a previous post I was probably going to pull a song from the Patreon Request List to do, and decided on one that's been on my to-do list for years now...


It's been over a year since we had a new GaMetal Sonic song (excluding the Flying Battery remake), and that song, Oil Ocean Zone, was, expectedly, not that popular. This should help change things. I've been wanting to do a Doomsday Zone / Big Arms Battle dual remix since 2011. They're both highly requested songs so this should be pretty sweet.


Speaking of Sonic, a lot of people are wanting to hear a Sonic Fan Medley #2. We'll probably put one together later this year. Maybe a classic version this time? (Sonic Fan Medley #1 was, by completely random chance, mostly Modern Sonic songs).


So the official line-up for May Madness this year, for now, is: Star Wolf, Basilisk Mine Field, Attack of the Koopa Bros, Those Who Fight, Hyrule Castle, Id (Purpose), and Doomsday Zone / Big Arms Battle. There may or may not be an 8th song, it will depend on how efficiently I'll be able to get these first 7 done. Right now, I have the arrangement done for most of these and drums done for a few, hopefully by the end of the week I'll have the arrangement and drums done for all and the rhythm sections for at least half of them.



That's all for now! I'll also be working on some more acoustic shorts when I need a break from May Madness songs, so keep an eye/ear out for those. Thanks as always for your love and support, you all are the best! :)

AMG Doomsday Zone!!! FNNNNGNGGHGH!! *Blows up* Seriously, There is already epic remixes of this done out there but i swear Jonny will make the best one!

Oh nice! A Fire Emblem remix! I don't think I've seen that from you yet. That actually makes me want to add Lost in Thoughts All Alone to my request list. Good to see Doomsday Zone/Big Arms remix coming too. A Classic Sonic medley would be pretty good. Would give me an excuse to request Never Let it Go from you.

really looking forward star wolf and hyrule castle! Would have prefered an other fire emblem song, but it's still cool!

Wow! That Sonic song is gonna be the best of all Sonic songs you've done. Also I can't wait for that Fire Emblem song :D

Medz

Dude, no joke, the Big Arm boss them is my favorite song ever. That combined with Doomsday Zone, that is going to be freaking crazy! Can't wait to hear it!

Superscope

ooo.. good choice with those sonic themes. Both are awesome.

I don't know how this particular FE song will fare in the gametal remix, but Jonny tends to surprise positively, so...
