Seriously this is the best covers I have ever heard. Hopefully you guys can say the same. His arrangement of Perfect Cell's theme is just...I can't even describe it cause of how great it is.

These would have been much better as a set of videos; it's hard to spot some of transitions and some bits seem to end as soon as they begin. Also, no Super Namek.

That said, I've been wanting some faux-choir instrumental takes on some of these songs for too long! The lighter version of Hells Bells worked out much better than I would have thought. Some were straight covers, which was fine, but when it started matching Cell music I was like "Okay, Ginyu Transformation wh- well, never mind!" :D

Nice, yeah the modern orchestral sounds help a lot :) Back then our orchestral MIDI sucked...10 years later...yeah things have moved forward so....

My comment:
Nice job! I'll send this to the other ex-Faulconer crew. You even got the 7/8 time right for SSJ Vegeta :) Mike will appreciate that. And you hit all four composers: Mike Smith (most everything), myself(Garlic Jr), Julius Dobos (Buu), and Bruce Faulconer (Ginyu Transformation) btw, I like the Howard Shore stye interpretation of the Dragon Theme ^^ Cool idea.

I'm still pretty fond of Hulusa Twin\AgentMoon's stuff though. He has a creative energy that is just euphoric to me. And I'm incredibly biased towards this being a favorite:

Heck, even I liked some of that.

But he's also a fighter, through and through [...] he fight until he has, in no uncertain terms, beaten his enemy on terms they can both acknowledge. He doesn't want to kill anyone, or even prove that he can win... he just wants to know he can. He's an ineffably charming bastard who's manly leanings were really incendental, and yes, the fact that he was voiced by a squeaky woman made the combination perhaps all the more charming.

If it's our business to ask, cRookie, any responses from the other composers?

No :(

Mike has kinda dropped off the face of the earth again. I need to call him. Nothing from Julius either. I posted it on Mike's FB and tagged Julius.


[edit] someone just sent me this =D

It sounds better than the original version, because I never liked Faulconer's music but these covers are actually pretty good.
