Music: Guitar Rock covers of Turrican tracks
'BadHairlineProductions' plays music from video games. Now he has also recorded some tracks from Turrican I and II as guitar rock versions, which are available as videos under the title link.
As the artist told us, he started playing some Mario, Pokémon and Zelda tracks with his fusion band a few years ago because, as jazz musicians, they liked the vibe of the early Mario music. Then, during the pandemic, he had started digging deeper and eventually did a lot of academic research on the history of video game music. Among other things, this also gave him the chance to talk to Chris Hülsbeck twice last year (BOING magazine's interview with him from issue #6).
