Nothing will stop me from smashing together VGM and non-VGM tunes! Certainly not @paradiddlesjosh.bsky.social @zackparrish.bsky.social @lucasguimaraes.bsky.social and @emunator.bsky.social - they enabled this smash-up from DoD’s Koji Kondo month!

New video! From "Shovel Knight", a chill cover of the beautiful "The Starlit Wilds", also known as the theme that plays in the campfire scenes! My friend Emunator helped me with the sound design. Hope you enjoy!
