Nikmis' "Forgotten Name #5" and Mickey Mania's "Mad Doc 2"

[WhiteSongBoy]

Similarities exist between these two tracks, however mild it may be. As I listened to Nikmis, I was suddenly struck with a sense of familiarity with the melody at hand. Thus, I ventured forth into my vast collection of audio files in search of the companion to said melody.

Nikmis song:
http://nikmis.bandcamp.com/track/forgotten-name-5
Melody begins at 2:38

Mickey song:

Begins at 0:15.

Similar, though different. It struck me as interesting, and so I share this gift with you all.

I always hated how fat and tinny the genesis synth sounds

I LOVE the Genesis sounds. Nintendo was always good too.

I find them to be on some impassable middle ground in terms of sound. Some games sound a million times better on Genesis than Nintendo, and vice versa.

I love Rocket Knight Adventures and The Adventures of Batman and Robin on the Genesis. Those are the best.

Nintendo has Super Mario RPG though, and that's probably one of the all-time greatest things ever.

he hasn't been around in a while. i sent a note to his deviantart email as i've named a few patches after him on a recent synth. not that he needs to be concerned.

i hope he's alright, and hasn't been gang stalked or earthquaked or fukushimaed nasty like.

i named patches on "standard VST" nikmis 1-3. you're welcome to a copy of the synth bundle license (or others), pm me an email to send the zips to if you like.
