Battletoads in Battlemaniacs is the property of Tradewest, Rare and Nintendo.

Here is my newest VGM cover. I originally was going to cover another song from this game, Ragnarok Canyon. I wanted to upload a new cover this month as I haven’t been uploaded a cover since August. However, I still wasn’t ready to record ragnarok canyon, so I picked this tune instead. It’s a great fun tune to play and was able to put this cover together quickly.

With this cover I didn't put together an intricate arrangement like I do on some of my other covers, I more or less stuck to the original version, including the instruments that are played. I also didn’t throw in a guitar solo or have the lead guitar play the keys part. In my opinion it’s not necessary and I thought it would be nice to let the keys take the spotlight.

I hope you enjoy this video and stay tuned for more VGM covers and original material.
