That was really well done! Pretty impressive translation. I have to say though, most of their stuff should cross over to techno really well (I would be surprised if more of their songs had not seen similar treatment). Have you heard the one done in Mario Paint composer? That one is really impressive to me because its such a limited format.

Yep, yep. Heh, I've even heard them reffered to as the Nintendo metal band... even tho that's not quite right .
These guys would be more like the nintendo metal band :http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8Gt4tOUd-g

I could probably say electronic power metal or electronic speed metal for their later stuff. As for Mario Paint it's quite limited indeed. Some people recorded 3 mario paint tracks at once to make their song sound good. Music 2000/Generator is limited in term of sample palette memory (can only use 2 MB of instrument sounds and loops per song), requiring you to burn your wav samples on CDs then load the CD in the Playstation to import them in the game and only allowing 24 notes to be played at once but it's far much better and versatile than Mario Paint. THe PC version is not worth it though IMHO because the controls are annoying and on XP it crashes a lot
