Alright, so who played on the classic Super Nintendo game Killer Instinct? This was a fighter game that rivalled Tekken and Mortal Kombat in my book, developed by a company called Rare. If I remember rightly, it was the first time a game was released with a full CD soundtrack. Back in those days, you had cartridges instead of discs that you put in to the console.

Anyway, one of the tunes I really liked was called "Do It Now", with eastern influences for the character called Jago. I was listening in to the track recently was wondering how it would sound if I could do a Drum & Bass version. Here is the original for reference - bring back that 90s cheese haha:

Remix

As my remix is still a work in progress, there's only a secret link on Soundcloud that you can check out here. It was a challenge to find all the samples, I had to do a lot of cutting, editing and processing to get the samples I wanted but I was particularly happy when I found out that famous "Kabuki Yo" sound that you hear at sporting events. Yooooooooo!

Let me know what you think of the Drum & Bass Twist 😜
