A prog-rock remake of level theme music from the NES game Contra Force!

Perhaps after all the 8-bit stuff I've done you can all understand my obsession with 8-bit music now. When I hear a great 8-bit tune, sure I hear the bleeps and bloops... but simultaneously in my mind, I hear stuff like this, the musical POTENTIAL. It's my DUTY to make it a reality!

This one is, in my opinion, LOADS better than my other Contra Force track. This one is longer, it hits hard AND soft, and yeah, I just love it. This is the music from the Boat level, where you fight everyone from a top view rather than a side view. This whole track is actually based on less than a minute of chiptune, it's a short piece of level music.

If the guitars sound obnoxious at times, I tried my best! :)
Let me know what you think! Go kill a hundred terrorists to this music!

This song rocks. Way to keep the Spirit of the good ol' NES alive! You got my respect. I really want to learn how to make stuff like this, and the great chiptunes you have composed.

So nice to see that the spirit of that old NES is still alive, also Contra Force is such a great game. That is stage 2! Your remix was awesome, not very far away from the original song but still matches perfectly the style of the game. You deserve this 10/10!

I already love 8-bits, but you've intensified it for me now. VERY rockin' with a major feel for the classics! Well done!

"Ah, Level 2, The Submarine Stage"

Hey man great work, but to be honest with you, I really wished you did the song up to the original speed because that is what truly makes the song great but either way, awesome job.
