The percussion on the Dynamo cover is really weak and sounds kinda inaccurate.

i am 100% ignorant when it comes to trackers but that cover of who turned out the lights is the sickest shit

Some of Dynamo's hi-hats are mistimed for sure, that was my bad, but I don't think the main beat is inaccurate at all
Weak in DPCM or just really quiet noise? I could probably agree with the second too haha

also thanks red ol buddy

Updated with TWO songs from Mega Man X4

Updated with all 8 Mega Man X4 mavericks at the top of this page
Two were here before but they're slightly different (slash barely magma kinda)

probably taking a break then working on 2a03 stuff to improve my instrumentation instead

Your instrumentation needs a lot of finetuning, IMO. Trying to make the songs sound like the original songs is hurting them a lot because of your lack of expertise on instrument-making. Sometimes it's better to stick with simpler noise instruments because the NES noise can only do so much. Your square instruments would benefit a lot from using more instrument mask fades and not being sustained on a really high volume value, too.

Your sequence seems to be pretty decent in most cases, though. I would've done some things differently to adjust the composition more into style (it's FC, so it does claim to have a style other than "generic 8-bit"), and there are still some questionable octaves choices on some sections, but it's generally consistent with the original songs. I said "in most cases", because your instrument choices make most of these covers sound bad.

It's impressive that you actually got around to make 8 songs, though. I wish I still had that sort of creative drive.
