This is the music that plays in Level 5 of Kirby’s Dream Land 2, but with the melody and chords replaced with Take On Me by a-ha. This is actually an LSDJ cover of an existing rip, Yogurt Yard – Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land. It was submitted during the Nostalgia Critic Takeover. The Nightmare in Dream Land song and the Kirby’s Dream Land song are both recreations of Yogurt Yard, from Kirby’s Adventure. I wanted to submit a “de-make” of the Nightmare in Dream Land rip, but since I’m more comfortable working in LSDJ than FamiTracker, I used Red Canyon.

Main Theme – Shrek: Fairy Tale Freakdown
This is an LSDJ remix of All Star by Smash Mouth, but the notes have been changed to Meet the Flintstones. It’s a combination of an existing rip (Main Theme (Beta Mix) – Shrek) and my existing Shyabeetus remix of All Star. Every year that I attend MAGFest, I perform a slightly different version of my All Star remix, and this was the one I performed in 2018. The breakdown section features samples from Joel’s reaction to 7 Grand Dad.
Green Greens (OST Version) – Kirby’s Dream Land
This is the theme from the first stage in Kirby’s Dream Land, but the melody and chords have been replaced with the North Qeynos theme from EverQuest. This is the inverse of my first rip on the channel.
Underwater Theme – EverQuest
This music begins as the underwater theme, but transitions into a cover of Ocean Man, by Ween. I believe this theme plays in a few areas in the game (possibly Kedge Keep), but I mostly wanted an excuse to cover Ocean Man.
Main Theme (Beta Mix) – Buck Bumble
This is the Buck Bumble theme, but with the melody changed to the Inspector Gadget theme, and the vocal samples are replaced with Mike Matei’s voice clips from Minecraft With Gadget. This was uploaded during the Inspector Gadget Takeover, where only rips referencing Inspector Gadget or Minecraft were uploaded. This was a fun way to practice sentence mixing, and I was able to study how Buck Bumble’s sequenced music was set up.
Final Boss – 8-Bit Beast’s Haunted House
This rip begins with an original arrangement of the Haunted House chords and the “slow gadunk” lead, before abruptly becoming a kazoo cover of Haunted House. I started this rip as a legitimate “Final Boss” rip, but ended up repurposing it for the Kazoo Day event.
MAGFest 2017 – Open Mic set
This is an assortment of songs I played at Chipspace Open Mic in 2017. This was the first year SiIvaGunner was a guest at MAGFest, so I wanted to create a High Quality Rip inspired set. The full set list is as follows:
00:00 – All Star (MAGShrek’d Remix – 2017 Edition)
02:47 – Metal Crusher (LSDJ remix)
03:50 – Wood Crusher (Woodman melodyswap)
04:45 – Steep Halation (LSDJKK Cover with intentionally inaccurate minor scale Snow Halation)
06:59 – Cache Full Boss (Deluxe Edition)
Dark Castle – Kirby’s Dream Land 2
This is an LSDJ remix of the music that plays in Level 7 of Kirby’s Dream Land 2. Actually, it’s a remix of the Planet Robobot version. I felt bad for tricking people with Dark Castle (Neon Laboratory) and wanted to make an unironically good rip of that song. I decided to make a Shyabeetus remix, with arps, wave channel wubs, and of course, some Haunted House and Puzzle Room. I don’t think anyone understood my intentions, but it was a fun project nonetheless. It also fit in with the Christmas event, as one of the themes was Planet Robobot. I made sure to include Snow Halation and Haltmann’s theme as well.
What a Surprise! (Beta Mix) – Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix
This is a cover of Haunted House using sleigh bells for every instrument. “What a Surprise!” is exclusive to the Final Mix version of Kingdom Hearts II, and plays during enemy encounters in the Christmas Town side of the Nightmare Before Christmas-themed world. The joke is that Haunted House is a Halloween source, but this rip appeared during the Christmas event. The title is also pretty fitting. It feels both genuine (“What a surprise! Haunted House is back!”) and sarcastic (“What a surprise! THIS again!”)
Health Update (Holiday Mix) – Captain Novolin
This is a parody of Santa Claus is Coming to Town, with the instrumental set in the style of the Health Update theme. The lyrics were mostly written by Chris De Pew, and sung by me. This parody is a lot less informative than Glassafornia Gurls, and a lot more threatening, as the doctor is very sternly telling the listener to take their diabetes seriously and stop eating so many holiday sweets. The lyrics are listed below.
You’d better watch out, your sugar is high,
Better throw out that food or you’ll die,
Glassa Claus be comin’ fo you,
I’m making a list, of things you can eat,
Follow it close, I know when you cheat,
Glassa Claus be comin’ fo you.
I see what you’ve been eatin’, I know it’s a mistake,
I know when you ain’t drink yo milk, so put down that goddamn cake. Mm.
You’d better watch out, you better not try,
Puttin’ that ice cream onto that pie,
Glassa Claus be comin’ fo you!
