Seattle Area studio video-game music cover project, headed by Mad-Mike.
Project 2A03 is a one-man video game music cover project, spawning all the way back to the dark days of the Atari 2600, all the way forward through early 90's PC and SNES games. The nucleus was an instrumental on the original LIthium Demos from 2001 called "Burning House" which had an 8-bit NES game like melodic quality to the music, so I initially started making tapes under the name "Game Genie" eventually changing it to Project 2A03 to prevent copyright issues.

Story behind the song
Metroid, in my opinion, has some of the most badass music the NES ever had. It might not have had a VRC6 sound control chip, but it DID have a well planned score for the technology availible at the time. This one I will admit, I botched up pretty good, but made a good recovery by turning it into a soulful blues type dealie at the end. It's just the old Red Kramer and the ME-6 run into TwoTrak with WinPDrums.
