30 Days of Video Game Music: Day 19 -- Cover of Music by a Different Artist

Check out the Day 1 post for the full challenge list.

“Night Trap” – Sunny BlueSkyes and Martin Lund

Game: Night Trap (1992, SEGA CD)
Original: YouTube
Cover: Rico and Jeeves (YouTube, Bandcamp)

Well, I’ve been doing covers and/or remixes for every single piece of music so far, so this one was easy! I decided to highlight one of my very favorite VGM covers of all time. I just love the effort that went into the music and the video for a relatively obscure video game song like this. Killer solo at the end to put the cherry on top. Lovely cover.

As for Night Trap the game, I also have an immense soft spot for it. I finally played it for the first time this year (in its 25th Anniversary Edition form), and it’s a wonderfully stupid camp horror game. I haven’t played any other FMV games, and I may never do so, but with Night Trap, I can at least say the concept wasn’t completely ill-advised.
