Dr. Wily Stage 1 (MM2) Fusion
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 фев 2025
- What if the most famous Wily stage theme to date, beloved and detested by many, made consistent appearances throughout the rest of the Mega Man classic series? That would've annoyed off a lot of fans, without a doubt, but it's an idea I was eager to explore, and in the process I strung together a grand total of 15 distinct arrangements, all made by me in Furnace and FamiTracker. It took a lot of time to brainstorm, draft, and polish every section of music, not to mention how long I spent focused on achieving near-perfect accuracy to each game's unique style. But it was all worth it, and I'm stoked to share with you all my love letter to this series (sorry, X fans, there's plenty of full-length covers out there for you to enjoy). See my pinned comment below for some honorable mentions of games that were considered but ultimately did not make the cut.
By the way, a large part of my inspiration stemmed from a MM9-styled cover by @marcine.mukuchi of this theme (I'll link it below). "Flash in the Dark" is an excellent homage to the most iconic Wily 1, so it only made sense for that track to serve as the basis for her arrangement. When I reached out asking for the MM10 samples used in her uploads, Marcine was not only kind enough to provide them, but also expressed excitement for the project's completion. Thank you again, Marcine, your support means the world to me!
I'd also like to give a shout-out to a few other awesome people:
@AndrewAmbrose, for his general support and knack for explaining things
@forple8930, for offering percussion used in the RMW3 section
@Plide, for helping me with the Game Gear section's noise channel
@infinite_sun_rays, for sending me the GBA instruments used in the MM&B section
... and @MeeowsMusic, for illustrating and editing together the thumbnail art. It turned out amazingly!
The footage in the background is from walkthrough videos by the following RUclips channels: @MegaQuint, @gr3mxr642, @videogamephenomhd, @worldoflongplays, @Sliider36, and @Overhazard.

Sorry if you didn't see your favorite Mega Man game in this video. Here's the ones that were considered but eventually cut:
- the original Mega Man (its sound didn't lend well enough to the theme)
- Mega Man: Powered Up (I would've had to find each sample on my own)
- Mega Man 11 (I'm not experienced enough to recreate its synths)
- Mega Man: The Wily Wars (it's already in that game ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)
And lastly, the various spinoffs (X, Battle Network, Zero, etc.) That would've opened up a whole new can of worms...
I assume 9 didnt make the cut for being too similar/the same as 10?
11 would probably be similar to Smash Bros tho. Or Just much more synth-eey
@@Annexialol Mega Man 9's would be just be the Mega Man 2 version wholesale
@@Annexialol MM9 was not considered because the project was inspired by an existing cover in that style by another channel. I've linked it in the description
It’s too bad you don’t have the shorts feature to show us why/how the original mega man failed to make the theme sound good
Sadly, the inner side of me want's to hear a fully remixes of each one.
They sound so good.
Even the dos version? You sure are a simple guy.
DOS or nothing @@-originalLemon-
@@-originalLemon- Mostly, 3-6 and III GB one was my favorites.
@@y0sh812now you make sense.
@@-originalLemon-well i don't think stuff like the gameboy 2 would sound very ear pleasing XD
1:22 This One Sounds Really Good
おっくせんまん！おっくせんまん！
In an alternate reality, this is the green hill zone of the mega man series
This made me realize how powerful Wily Stage 1 feels at slower tempos.
0:59 really love this part a lot
hell if this was how it actually sounded it would be one of my favorite songs in the series
2:18 I loved the mega man msdos part
2:29 this part is so satisfying
The Mega Man II (GB) part? If you say so! 😅
LOL the Mega Man (ON DOS!!!!!!!) section.
Thanks, it was my favorite part to make!
@@levir.starsmusic Wait, did u actualy played Mega Man for DOS while singing the actual song?
@@BlizzardoBuffalardo nope, I had trouble getting the DOSBox emulator to work, so instead I layered keyboard sound effects over footage of someone else's playthrough
@@levir.starsmusic Oh, makes sense now
Human voice soundfont. 😂
Greatest love letter to everyone who composed for the mega man series
I'm truly honored, thank you!
This is so awesome, every game represented here got replicated well! (That MM1DOS section is funny)
is that because it hasn't soundtrack, right? you need to imagine and sing it for your own, no? hahahaha
@@jainapower336i MAKE the music
@@PinkSupreme2012 xD
every style was scarily accurate down to a tee. incredible work on this! the attention to detail for every single part really made this more enjoyable than i expected it to be
Words can't describe my appreciation for your support. Thanks a million for helping make this project a reality, and for taking the time to listen to the finished product. You're amazing!
Gonna need a full version of 5, 6 and 10 those were mastered FLAWLESSLY
Haha, wish I had the time for those full versions but maybe someday; thanks so much!
I agree on the front of the MM10 one.
Yall are sleeping on the 2 Gameboy one and the Game Gear one, those deserve it as well
@SuperRy21. MM2GB/World 2 hell nah but I agree with MMGG
I imagine the exact whole video but "I was never book smart I'm money smart" playing on the exact tempo on each one lmao
The Mega Man Dos remix followed up by World 2 was beautiful on the ears 🔥🔥🔥
0:01 Mega Man 2
0:10 Mega Man 3

That Mega Man 7 section NEEDS a full remix, it's sooo good
Agreed
There's already one
The mirai kara no chōsensha remix was amazing!! Love the soundfont to bits
@@User_Samicom thank you, glad my attention to detail paid off!
@levir.starsmusic glad that you made this mix!
These are all great! :)
0:34 I wasn’t expecting both the SNES and GBA versions of Mega Man and Bass. You even got the WonderSwan sequel lol.
1:33 I played this weird little Game Gear game quite a few times, and can say that this is very accurate.
1:46 I got the cartridge for this one recently, and can say that it is also accurate. :)
2:30 Almost forgot about Mega Man II. It sounds just as high pitched as ever lol.
I got fucking sucker punched by the MM&B section cause I was going "Why not use the perfectly serviceable GBA logo instead of the JP one?" immediately followed by getting slammed with the GBA MM&B section
1:59 Mega Man 7. Spinning platforms in the background.
I really like the change in scale during the end of the Game Gear section
Gotta have those wrong notes for accuracy!
That one first Game Gear part was so catchy.
That Mega Man 4 one was just prefect, you straight up COOKED with this one! 👌
Absolute masterpiece. This goes straight into my playlist.
You're too kind, thank you so much!
I like the dedication and variety.
MM1's version of Wily's Revenge is simply glorious And you captured the MM2 gb You got the style
HE COOKED
ALL THE GAMEBOY STUFF OH MY GODDDDD
@@totallytidmouth can't forget the Game Boy ones!
Specially Mega Man II. I loved to hear that one.
MM2GB was my first megaman game after discovering I even liked megaman lol
@@totallytidmouth The first one I have ever played was Mega Man 5 and my second was Mega Man 3, which I discovered in a 45 in 1 controller connected via AV on TV. Then I started knowing more about the series in Mega Man Maker.
@@leandro88888the first mega man I ever played was wily wars
This video is honestly a great showcase of how each game in the Mega Man franchise has its own unique music style
My sadness was completely destroyed because of this soundfont fusion, that was very good.
This was an interesting idea and a few well executed takes on an iconic theme. Saw this posted in the OCR workshop and decided to listen. Nice job.
Ive seen this in the MMM server and still surprises me, good job you made here and keep the peak!!! 🔥🔥🔥
@@pastaG7 thank you so much!
Not sure why RUclips decided to wait 2 whole months to recommend this to me, but hey it's some pretty cool stuff.
Thanks! And yeah, the algorithm works in mysterious ways.
Oh, My, God! This war brilliant! I had no idea I needed this, but man, this was brilliant! Good job! The DOS version had me pee my pants!
this put a big, goofy smile on my face. thank you.
Amazing video!!!!
Congratulations, my friend!
The Mega Man DOS part was really realy fun!!! :D :D :D
@@emilioamaralmarquesdemorai1856 thank you so much!
Holy shit this is awesome!
Just came across this channel from this vid. Subscribed! This was a banger
This is fantastic, I'd love to see full renditions of each!
Wow, that thumbnail is really good... the music's alright too!
Help Wily, he has too many Mega Men around him! AAA!
Mega Man II with the notes an octave higher my beloved
Erm ACTUALLY, it's TWO octaves, get it right smh!!1!!!!!
@@abc_4226 Was it??
this amount of effort earned you my sub and I hope many more
Great selection of stages to draw inspiration for each remix. I would loved an X1 remix. You seem very capable of doing it.
Waiting for your next dose of Megaremixes
Good lord i need a full version of the Mega Man 8 version ASAP. This is all so good.
@@babyluther73 that was my favorite to put together!
0:34 This must have a FULL COVER!!
(I like the SNES sound font of megaman & bass)
this is really awesome, great job man !!1
Is amazing how Even in the same console they manage to give every gane a different music style
@@Ironsketches Capcom has employed some amazing composers!
@@levir.starsmusicYEEEAH, and You manage to replicate those Styles perfectly, amazing work ;]
Awesome, classic as always
Iconic DOS. I'm a sucker for MM8, but MM5 and even Game Gear takes me back Sonic DX days of games collecting emblems
I'm glad you considered the gba version of Megaman & Bass
@@Knuckles_la_Enchilada gotta account for the folks who played it on the go!
Nice job!
Thanks, man!
I love listening to soundtracks with different soundfonts! Please make more videos like this.
WE’RE GETTING OUT OF WILY STAGE ONE WITH THIS ONE 🔥 🔥 🔥
this goes so hecking hard my guy
Awesome stuff! :D
Thank you, good to hear from you again too!
you even captured Mega Man World 2's ear bleeding music, as much as I hate MMW2's music I'll give you points for accuracy
How dare you. I listened to remixes and mods which lover the pitch, and all of them make the music sound worse.
The only ear bleeding Mega Man music is Heat Man and Ring Man.
@@genyakozlov1316How dare you. I listen to both Heat Man and both are Ring Man and both are bangers, especially on remixes. The only ear piercing song is Proto Man's whistle.
@@berdinactionHow dare you. I listen to Proto Man’s whistle and it’s a banger, the only ear piercing song is… uh… uhm… uh… wait a minute give me some time to think
@@Newibethe game over theme for mm&b cftf
As a World 2 OST enjoyer I disagree
You nailed the Challenger from the future one.
@@OrbitalFrog_ sounds like the extra work I put into that one was worth it, then!
@ it most definitely was. Also, the rest were fire as well. The mega man DOS one made me laugh
@@OrbitalFrog_ haha, thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed them
Pretty solid, I must say.
I'd say my favorite ones would have to be those done in III (GB), 4, 6, 7, SNES &Bass, and 10's style.
I was half expecting DOS to just be pure silence, but this was much funnier.
this is actually the best video ever
The MM10 sounds like pure heaven, PLEASE make the full version holy shit
Now That's What I Call High-Quality™!
The Dr wily’s revenge section is so beautiful… :]
this man deserves a trophy
Very unique music video dedicated to the Blue Bomber. 👍
I feel like even in a toaster this song would be a banger
2:09 best part
If disagree fight me : P
If there can be a soundtrack with mm2 and mm5 combined, I can die happily. It'd be my funeral music.
Mega Man II version legit makes the song sound way better. I want the full version.
In fact I want all Mega Man soundtracks remade in that soundfont exclusively for my listening pleasure.
I'm not joking. I'm a gigant Rockman World 2 fan.
@@genyakozlov1316 I have an arrangement of the NES Metal Man Stage that I finished but haven't posted yet
I'm a Rockman World 2 fan too, in fact, from every Mega Man Gameboy I have ever played, this one is the easiest one to finish, and I mean, without saving states, cheats or anything. And even high pitched, the OST is really incredible, my most favorite soundtrack is Top Man.
hot dang you made all these arrangements on your own? incredibly impressive
@@RT55J thank you! I think my work paid off ☺️
@@levir.starsmusic Did you use Famitracker on those NES soundtracks?
OMG I NEED A FULL VERSION OF THE MM6 VERSION
Yooo this is insane
I'd like to hear a fusion of both Wily Fortress 2 MM3 and Wily Fortress 1 MM4, please!
They are both my favorite themes after all.
DOS FUCKIN KILLED ME LMAO
Due to how overused this theme is I came into this thinking ot was gonna be lame but I'm happy to day I love this
honestly a second video for the x games would be cool this is really amazing tho
おっくせんまん！ おっくせんまん！
Now. I want this again but with music from X, Legend, Zero, Zx, Battle Network and Starforce
i’d MOURN an extended version of the MM10 ver, this still sick as hell though
ROCKMAN 10!!! YESSS
Mega Man 5 section seems to have that frantic feel to it.
It used the Dark Man theme as a base, BPM included, so that’s probably why.
@@AverageJoeMama interesting.
I would love to hear the full versions of these remixes someday, especially the Mega Man 5 remix
Nice!
I like the back to back to back Rockman & Forte part
MM7 and MM10 went hard
FR, and mega man III
0:60 It gave me vibes from the same song in smash bros
The Mega Man Dos one was genius.
Shame that 11 wasn't there but awesome job anyway!
Thank you
HOW IN THE WORLD DID RM&F for Wonderswan Appeared??? Nobody ever made a remix using the samples of that game, and it sounds so good 😭😭😭😭😭😭 HOW???
1) Isolated the audio channels using Oswan, a WonderSwan emulator, and recorded each one throughout different parts of the game
2) Used an Audacity plugin called Nyquist to generate waveforms from recordings I captured
3) Imported the waveforms into Furnace while sampling the noise channel for the percussion
... and voilà, a fairly accurate reproduction of Rockman & Forte: Challenger from the Future's sound. Hope this helps!
0:59 Mega Man 6. So grand.
I really want the8bitdrummer to play this song like he did the other Wily fusion collab
It would make no sense to drum to another fusion of the same thing
Thats like eating a chocolate cake after having chocolate ice cream in the evening
@@torino20 if he does, it could give the video more attention, also the guy did 5 versions of Megalovania, 3 rush E's and multiple We are Number Ones
@@space470-1 I mean yeah but those Megalovanias were variations, same for the Rush E's and the WANO's, this is a fusion of a song that already has a fusion that he already drummed, would be redundant
This is so Dr. Wily 1 Stage (MM2) Fusion ngl
2:09 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼
God I wish there were full versions for a lot of these especially mega man 6
The History repeats itself…
That intro music.....
*SMBZ Flashbacks*

Aw yea. 😎
Thanks again for your help!
@@levir.starsmusic My pleasure, bro! ^w^
@@levir.starsmusic My pleasure, bro! ^w^
This is AWESOME! Also, the General MIDI and/or Sound Blaster and/or Adlib instruments you used for DOS Mega Man were EXACTLY as I remembered them :-p
desperate for a full version of the MM6 and MM7 ones... especially the latter
