### [N163] Undertale - MEGALOVANIA (Plus 2 more)

So with all this love for Undertale coming from everywhere, I decided to cover some of the songs from it.
1 - Megalovania
This took me a week to do. All by ear, so if something seems off, let me know! ^^
Note: I know the drum patterns aren't accurate. I made them up.
2 - Your Best Friend
A few hours to do this one.
3 - hOI! [Arranged to sound more music box-like]
With this, I took the main melody from "dogsong" and "Tem Shop" and added a backing track to give it that sleepy, music box feel.

I haven't played it, but I've heard about it, seen the Ruins portion of the game in videos. Oh, and that crazy battle against Sans -- I can agree that he's got a totally epic track and it sounds like you captured it pretty well (though it doesn't feel like it loops properly).
(Incidentally, Bulby / MrBulbaMike over on YouTube recently did a Capcom-styled 2A03 version of the same song and it came out just as epic. link)

I stumbled upon this page when I realized that "Megalovania" was part of a Homestuck soundtrack. I really dislike Homestuck for being an too-unstable experience that is so confusing and somewhat annoying, but the music of that webcomic was better than Homestuck itself because of the strong variety. The Wikipedia article for Undertale even states that "Megalovania" was created for a EarthBound ROM hack released in 2009. So in addition to being a Undertale song cover, this may be the first time a Homestuck song cover was posted on the new Famitracker forums. The other two songs are definitely from Undertale.

Speaking of Homestuck, can you cover "Sunslammer" in VRC7?

I used the MP3 from the OST, it's missing 2 bars off the end. Dunno why. However, if you remove the B00 from the last pattern, you can see that I did extend it lol.

I'm so far out the Homestuck loop, that I didn't even hear that version until recently, as with the Earthbound Halloween 2009 ROM hack. Just as well though, I listened to the Homestuck version, and high quality guitar on low-quality samples just sounds nasty as heck.

I'm not particularly comfortable with VRC7 any more, not since the chip's sound changed a few years ago.

I agree that the Homestuck version of "Megalovania" is worse than the Undertale version of it. Thanks for your comments!
