So, there's a bit of a history with this track, but first of all, I wanna link to @savagedregime8176 's KZitem channel. For anyone who's into modern FM synth musicians, he is absolutely one of the best out there, and if you don't know him, you really should! ^^
But, as for why I decided to cover this, it goes back to a video by @BasementBrothers where they covered the Neo Geo port of Xeno Crisis. At one point in the video a point is made about how the official Neo Geo port uses compressed recordings of the Genesis soundtrack for its music rather than dedicated Neo Geo chiptune remakes. Obviously it's a little disappointing, but I'm sure there are a number of technical reasons they couldn't remake the music using the YM2610. So, I thought I'd try doing it myself!
Full transparency, I copied the FM patches from the track in the Genesis version of Xeno Crisis for this one, but I tried to put more focus on the sampled instruments and add some new FM patches where I could afford to. I also decided to use the King of Fighters channel layout with only 3 ADPCM-A channels used at a time during the music. Considering how frequently sound effects play in the game, that made the most sense to me.
Hope you enjoy! ^^
