So damn true. I remember in the 90s playing friends in fighting games, no matter the fighting game, this was always my prep-song, this was the jam that would hype me up.
Dude I'm 47, 1994 was my senior year when KI came out... I dumped a shit-ton of quarters in that game... this.... dude this is absolutely badass... almost 30 years later and still the BEST fighting game theme. Nostalgic AF for me. Rock on my man
I just seen a man put his entire soul and universe into some strings enough to make a grown man cry... Thank you for uniting me and many others together to hear your story
I have been obsessed with this song for as long as I can remember. I owned the CD that came Long with the game and played the track "the Instinct" on repeat. This was back in '95 and here we are 2021 and I still listen to it. Now it was covered by Andy James?!?!? My ears are crying with joy!
That's exactly what I think and what I feel right now...this is a dream come true... I've loved this tune ever since I got the game in the 90s, I have the CD right here too... Cheers bro!
Because it was a time to push the envelope and they cared about their craft and their customers now they’ve become obnoxious larian studios had to remind them
I’ve definitely considered it, I’ve even tried shooting it. But I get like 10 minutes in and realise it’s not really that interesting haha but that’s just me thinking it’s not I suppose rather than what others might get from it. It’s a relatively simple process I guess, it’s not like 7 hours of content or anything like some mix tutorials
@@floevo You could totally do an interview with Robert Baker or any number of online folks and do a dive into tone, and equipment. I geek out on that type of thing, and it may seem boring, but it is a basis for your art, like a painter's choice of brushes and canvas. 😎
@@floevo try it out for a couple videos and see how many likes and view it gets. I’ll be there, just remember , ANYTHING YOU PUT OUT IM A FAN OF BIG TIME. your thought process and tones in your head translate to pure excellence and that’s what I like.
Seriously, this interpretation of the classic title theme is an absolute thrill ride of a performance, it literally keeps sounding better Every Single Time I come back to it, Wow!!! 🎯👊💯💯💯
Absolutely sick, you have the styles of John Petrucci, Steve Via, Joe Satriani, and Yngwie Malsteen all wrapped up in one, you are truly a gift from God
amen. He is the best of all of those guys rolled into ONE package. and no bad songs ever whereas even Joe (one of my idols) has an occiasional stinker :) JP on the other hand (my guitar hero).... but Andy is the PINNACLE. best bang for your buck and WAY WAY underrated player
@@sjsphotog You cant compare him with Joe and JP. Those guys are created an era for melodic rock. Because they are not only players but also composers who can affect thousands.
I bought all his Lick Library DVDs - invested $200 or so - money well spent ! He’s an amazing teacher - they’re so dope ! Andy is def one of the best ever in his genre - He and Marco are my favorites- progressive shred metal all day \m/ \m/
Anyone who remembers the original game in the arcade can tell you that whatever speakers they installed in the games arcade booth was crazy compared to other game units. The speakers were LOUD, sounded clear, and had some serious bass to them. You couldn’t walk by the machine without hearing the music blasting and the announcer saying. ‘Killllerrrr instinctttt”
Good to see other KI fans here. I remember all those days of throwing controllers against the walls and floor out of frustration from losing to the CPUs lol. It felt good to finally finish Eyedol at the end. Thanks for making this video, Mr. James! For a musician who loves KI.... This is a real treat.
cinder was my king in this game i could excute ultra combos at will and never execute anything less than awesome to killers combos eyedol was killed personally by over 700 times on top of having most combos ect at the end of matches
I was 10yrs old, got admitted to hospital due to an asthma attack back in 94, I had only just got Killer Instinct as gift and didn't want my brothers to play it, so took the cartridge with me. Once I recovered I had to stay in kids ward for a few days for observation, to my surprise there was a games room on the ward for all the sick kids. I told the other kids that I had Killer Instinct, man we played for hours, winner stayed on, such a core memory for me...
This takes me back to being a kid playing gold on n64 and listening to the killer cuts cd. Still have my dad's 64 but sadly lost KI gold along with all his 64 games in a robbery. Killer Instinct, starfox, war zone and ocarina of time were my favorites along with forsaken 64
I’m in the gym, and that outro at 3:27 is still one of the nastiest and filthiest outros I’ve ever heard. Pure epic-industrial brutality. Listening to it literally gives me at least 3 more reps when I’m completely depleted.
There was a Killer Instinct arcade machine in my small town’s old pizza joint, I used to hang out in there all the time as a kid. The owner let me play on it as much as I wanted and it kept me from having to go back home on days I didn’t want to. Still get a bit emotional every time I hear it this song, and it is one the first songs I learned on guitar when I picked that up later. Thanks for this version. It’s freaking awesome! As my pops used to say, never stop pickin’ and grinnin’! Also, as a fellow beard and black beanie bro, guitarist, and enjoyer of green on black, game recognizes f’in game 👊🏼
Brought literal tears to my eyes... this is ascended beyond all that is. Never played guitar in my life, but this... this makes it very tempting to at least try.
Впервые за 12 лет ютуб в джеме годную вещь вставил, приятная с первого же звука. Блеск, спасибо исполнителю! Вы знаете это волшебное ощущение когда ты начинаешь слушать интересную вещь, тебя переполняет вот это нежное, тонкое и перспективное чувство что то что ты слышишь Очень Годное, и ты буквально идешь вслед за треком и хочешь чтобы не было косяков и все было на столь же высоком уровне как и началось. Вот это оно.
Звучит отлично, согласен, я видос поискал сам услышав случайно рифф из темы. Не буду тут рекламировать других ютуберов, но есть один турецкий бородатый крутой гитарист играющий в таком же стиле, фамилия Очайон
Once again, here he comes on his rocket ship of shredness, we want to see you live Andy Plz come to the states and show everyone you are here!!!!! you are the best guitar player of our time....my son is 13 and can't get enough of you....bro you inspired him to play.....bless you brother for doing that for him......we will never forget !!!
No me canso de escuchar esta version con mi hijo , tengo 43 años y mi hijo 4 y ama killer instinct y esta version. De seguro aprendera de aca ya que le tengo su guitarra electrica lista. Saludos desde temuco chile. Los mas brijidos de killer instinct arcade version.
DUDE im still blasting this on a regular basis, please please do every song in the game, one of the best covers of any game period, i always laugh whn that high note makes you shiver, music does that to me as well
I watched this quite a few times now just had to leave a comment to tell you how amazing this is. For us 40+ year olds growing up in high school in the early 90s playing this game at the arcades is mega nostalgia for us. KI was THE arcade game that dominated the scene back then. Hearing the theme music and the “ultraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa combooooooo” and “c-c-combo breakerrrr” was just mesmerizing. Your take on this theme was amazing, I love every note and touch you played. It accents everything perfectly, and then the very end riffs - got us all in the feels my friend. That character select music is so brutal, this is a 10/10 my friend. Bravo!
I just started learning and practicing guitar, there's a few cover themes I want to learn. KI, especially your cover on it, is one of them. Thank you for the inspiration.
Hungover having to cook a breakfast buffet at 445 am in the morning for 250 pax alone. put this on while mainlining 3 redbulls and a bacon sandwich. The only salvation.
After listening this track a lot of times now I can't imagine any other versions including original at 1st places. Now to me this is original. This is how it should sound when I'm playing KI.
Just love Andy he is so consistent with his music and creates a real feeling. His balance is perfect and he does a good job with emotion as well with just enough showmanship. Keep it up Andy love all of your stuff.
Man, this is awesome. Nice tone and that guitar with green details coupled with the green light in the room give me matrix feelings... absolutely amazing!
I think it's a shame that I haven't seen or heard this song from you before. Especially from minute 2:27, when you really get started, gives me so much strength. Thank you for that!
Sometimes I wonder how much those games and soundrack did actually shaped our music tastes... I didn't even knew what metal was, back then... and now is part of my life for the last 15 years. That, Zelda, and Banjo & Kazooie. Gawd
1994 was a damn good year, for this game coming out and consuming my summer lol! I was 10yrs old and me and my older brother who was 13yrs at the time held tournaments in our garage with all the other kids in the neighborhood. Let me tell you during the 90s it seemed like there where tons of kids that were your age on your block at the time and the next block over! I mean these tournaments would last from 10am till 10pm at night it was awesome! Me and my brother would just take our 24inch box tv that felt like carrying a mechanics two stack tool box to the garage and plugged in the TV and SNES open the garage and all the other kids knew what was up! I'm 38yrs old now and I fucking miss those days! This cover was by far the best one I've came across i wish when the creators of the KI would take guys like you into consideration for the new game theme. Absolutely amazing bro!!
This is by far best guitaring I have heard in a long time. Truly exceptional. There is lot of melody and pathos in your shredding. Simply outstanding. The part at 1:48 took me deep inside. Very instrospective. 👌👌👌👌🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
I did not know how much I needed that lead out to the champ select riff. \m/ \m/ This and Little V Mills iteration are my hands down favorite versions of what is to me the most epic and iconic metal gaming theme song of all time.
One of the great things about YT is seeing the amount of KI fans that comment. I didn't know many people that played the game growing up. This theme, along with many others in the 90s was what got me into guitar. It's great that Andy James grew up with the game too. Awesome cover by the way!!

That's exactly what I think and what I feel right now...this is a dream come true... I've loved this tune ever since I got the game in the 90s, I have the CD right here too... Cheers bro!

Damn. I forgot about the CD.
I still have the game and the Nintendo console. And the controllers... FIGHT!
I know it sounds cliché, but it's pretty cool to see I'm not alone!
This better get played at my funeral or I'm coming back as Cinder
This one got me 😂😂😂🔥🔥🔥
Assuming you got cremated
You can't, you got COCOCOMBO BREAKER!!
I am embarrassed at how many times I have listened to and watched this. I will never tell anyone. This so fucking good.
How and why did they go so hard on soundtrack for a game in the 90s? Peak nostalgia.
It was the first time Nintendo said "okay, be violent. Show Sega what we can do."
And Rare, yes, that Rare, did so. 😊❤
Because it was a time to push the envelope and they cared about their craft and their customers now they’ve become obnoxious larian studios had to remind them
Late 80's too. No idea why, but I'm glad they did.

Shit man, this is epic!!!
Outstanding. Goosebumps
Great job, I can’t stop listening 😊
it's been 8 days, are u still loopin this song?
This is the best cover of this song in all the internet 🤜🤛
I literally don't know why I can't stop listening to this... It's one of the best plays I've ever heard. 😎

Honestly one of the top tier musicians ever to enter RUclips. The man loves music and we love hearing it.
0:50 made me shiver with nostalgia. Beautifully executed man, truly!
One of my favorite guitarists, playing the theme of one of my favorite games ... what else can I say? Thanks for everything!
