about

"Metal Dragons" is a small album with metal covers of some old Dragon Ball Z videogames like the Super Butouden saga (SNES) and Ultimate Battle 22 (PSX). While not the greatest fighting games ever these had a bunch of good tunes that are a big part of my childhood and it was a matter of time to do something like this.

While relying mostly on metal as genre you may expect a lot of varied elements ranging from orchestral to industrial, lots of woodwinds and synths, both aggressive and smooth parts, etc. If you like variety in metal you might love this. Even more so if you happen to like Dragon Ball and these old games!

While most of my usual music is silly shitposts this album is rather serious, instrumental and I'd dare to say even good and accessible to the public, normal ears. Seriously, while not perfect I'm so proud of finally getting this thing done and ready to release! I have no words to describe my feelings regarding this. Just listen without fear, hopefully you'll like! :)

I was extremely lucky to count with a bunch of talented musicians to play some of the instruments for my arrangements. Just look at them in the "credits" part of this info and don't forget to check their wonderful music!

Arrangements/covers of videogames music, mostly metal. Sometimes full synth, sometimes counting with talented artists playing for me. I was known for ruining music with silly vocals and occassionally keep doing so, but don't let that to fool you; I do serious stuff too! ... more
