Cobalt Scar (Othmir Beach) – EverQuest

This is the song that plays near a passive group of otter folk in EverQuest, but I turned it into a medley of memes and other themes. It starts with a fakeout: the midi steel drums have been replaced with the ones from “Crank That” by Soulja Boy, followed by the snaps, and Soulja Boy’s voice, before returning to the midi steel drums playing the Nutshack theme. The other segments, in order are: Meet the Flintstones, Megalovania, Gangplank Galleon, Haunted House, Snow Halation, Bloody Tears, U Guessed It, Go My Way, Pokemon Go Song, SMB3 Overworld, Gourmet Race, Axel F, U.N. Owen Was Her?, Cruel Angel’s Thesis, the Simpsons, the EverQuest theme, Green Hill Zone, and SMW Overworld. The song ends with the notes from Crank That.

K.K. House – Animal Crossing: City Folk

This is a bait and switch, where following the intro, a K.K. Slider cover of Haunted House plays. The joke is simply that “House” is in the title. K.K. Slider covers make up a huge part of my Youtube channel, so not only was I excited to cover Haunted House in the style of a live K.K. performance, but I was finally able to contribute a K.K. cover for SiIvaGunner. Rather than modify an existing MIDI, I built this arrangement from the ground up, and tried to come up with a unique, but believable K.K. Slider sound for each instrument in Haunted House.

Dark Castle (Neon Laboratory) – Kirby Planet Robobot

This is actually just Haunted House, pitch corrected to the Puzzle Room theme from Kirby Planet Robobot. Puzzle Room was a recurring meme on the channel, which was commonly used to troll the fans. Since Haunted House was my attempt at trolling the fans, I combined the two songs, and picked a different title from the Planet Robobot soundtrack with the word “Castle” in it. This may have been one of my more mean-spirited jokes, as fans were actually hoping for a rip of Dark Castle. I would later try to make it up to the fans by submitting a different rip.

Castle Boss – New Super Mario Bros. Wii

This is the theme that plays when fighting a boss in New Super Mario Bros. Wii, but the main lead has been replaced with Haunted House. Castle Boss is the alternate title of Haunted House, found within the NSF header information, which is the entire basis of this rip. This is the first Haunted House mashup on the channel, as opposed to being a melody swap, bait and switch, or sequenced arrangement.

Creepy Castle Boss – Donkey Kong 64

This is the theme that plays when you fight King Kut Out in Donkey Kong 64, but the melody and chords have been replaced with Haunted House. This is the first Haunted House rip to be more than just a bait-and-switch or midiswap. The joke is that “Castle Boss” is in the title, which is the alternate name for Haunted House.

The Feerrott (Oggok Entrance) – EverQuest

This is an EverQuest-styled midi of All Star by Smash Mouth. There actually isn’t any song that plays in the Feerrott, just the sound of swamp life. The joke here is that Oggok is the city of the ogres, and All Star is commonly associated with the opening scene from Shrek. Other sound effects are present in this rip, such as the sound of an ogre fighting a froglok, and someone’s footsteps–which are pitch shifted to sound like the Nutshack theme.

Someone Stole All of the Lyrics

A year after Storm Blooper Special: Someone Stole All of the Remixes, we released Volume 2, featuring even more renditions of Storm Blooper’s song. In addition to contributing the ice cream truck sound in the intro track, I submitted an arranged version of Someone Stole All of the Ice Cream with my own lyrics. Scroll down to sing along!

Someone stole all the ice cream,
Now I’m quite saddened,
Wish I had bought some,
Sadly I hadn’t.
I need some ice cream,
I’m on a mission,
I need my daily
Nutrition.

Could someone point me in the right direction,
All I want is to purchase that tasty confection
Can’t someone, anyone, help me to acquire,
The creamy deliciousness that I so desire.

Someone…
Stole all…
Of the…
Ice cream…

Someone stole all the ice cream,
Why can’t I find it?
Here is the freezer,
Nothing behind it.
Nothing can beat my,
Frozen obsession,
I’ll just melt into
Depression.

(BRK solo)

Neopolitan, mint chocolate chip,
banana split, topped with cool whip
orange sorbet, vanilla bean,
coffee chip, filled with caffeine

Strawberry swirl, pistachio,
And don’t forget cookie dough,
Please wake me up from this bad dream,
So I can get my ice cream!

Who stole all of the ice cream,
I have a craving
If I don’t get some,
I’ll stop behaving.
I’ll have that ice cream,
Some day, I swear it,
And when I do I
Won’t share it.

Glassa Milk

A timeless tale about a man and some milk. Mm.
The main artwork comes from the Super Nintendo game Captain Novolin. I created the different mouths and hand in Photoshop, and animated them to Chris DePew‘s voice in After Effects.

Captain Novolin is a game about a superhero with type 2 diabetes. Before each stage, this doctor character tells the captain what he is allowed to eat, and this often includes a glass of milk. Chris and I refer to this character as Dr. Glassa.
