Shinobi III '80s Action Movie Arrangement

Featured Replies

I don't have much to do with cover tunes or video game music these days, but with new Ninja Gaidens and Shinobi games coming out, it appears 2025 is indeed the year the ninja master returned.

I have better gear than they did back in '93, so I arranged the theme from Shinobi 3 in the '80s martial arts film score style I believe they were going for on that old Sega soundchip!

 

Hey @AngelCityOutlaw!

Very cool track!  Reminds me a little of Kow Otani the Japanese composer who wrote the music for "Outlaw Star" an anime that was popular right before the reign of "Cowboy Bebop".  Thanks for sharing this cool "Asiatic" track!

Thanks Peter!

I'm not familiar with Outlaw Star, but I have heard some of the music from cowboy bepop. As I recall some of the composers from the Shinobi games originally worked under Joe Hisaishi, who went on to score studio Ghibli films, and I've always kinda heard a bit of his influence in the games.
