Street Fighter II is the property of Capcom.

Hey folks, I'm back with a new cover. It sure has been a while since I uploaded a new cover. I have been sidetracked with other errands. That I have been a bit lazy as of late if I'm honest. My apologies to any of my subscribers who have been eagerly awaiting a new cover from me.

With that said however I have been working on this cover over the past month or two, putting it together bit by bit. Originally I was going to cover M.Bison's theme and I did put together a recording, but I wasn't too happy with my rendition and couldn't think of any ways of improving my cover without drastically changing it from the original version. To top it off one of the bass riffs in the songs was quite difficult for me to play on bass at full speed so ultimately I ended up scrapping the the idea and went with Vega's theme instead. I am much happier with the end result of my cover of this song.

As always I made some minor adjustments to the riffs and melodies. The biggest change being the beginning melody being played an octave lower. This was so I could palm mute the riff and not deaden the note unlike playing it an octave higher, plus it makes the melody heavier, suiting the genre of music I went for with this cover. I also included some chord orientated riffs as a substitute for some sections to help the cover send bigger and heavier.

I hope you enjoy this cover and stay tuned for more VGM covers in future
