Battletoads - Turbo Tunnel 2 (PRC349)
Outline
I got a request to cover a Battletoads song from my brother, so I'm picking the bike section of the Turbo Tunnel for this round! I played the SNES version of this game growing up, and man... This game was unforgiving. The Turbo Tunnel was the furthest any of my brothers, cousins, or I ever got. I used to think after the level was beaten, the rest of the levels would be unfinished and glitchy since nobody was going to get passed that level. We always played 2 player too, which made it much more difficult. My brother and I did beat the game finally, using an emulator and save states. It was hard even using those! Beating it and seeing the rest of the levels was awesome, though.
Mazedude has a medley of Battletoads with this tune in it, but no individual mixes on the site, so a good tune to cover in PRC! The MIDI I got was in pretty bad shape, mixing is not good at all. All of the notes are there, though, and I've tried to correct all the errors I heard. Forgive me if there are some wrong notes here and there!

After uploading, please check if your song plays and can be downloaded and played without problems.
Only upload MP3 Files.
It is not necessary to use ThaSauce. You can upload the song anywhere you want, but I must have a download link. So if you use SoundCloud, don't forget to allow downloads, otherwise your song does not count as an entry or bonus mix. I will still use ThaSauce as a possible place to submit songs and upload all the songs to the ThaSauce page to have the songs at one central place.
If ThaSauce is down, please also submit the song somewhere else with a download link and post the link in the Ocremix Thread.
The winner of this round may select the source for PRC351 which is not the round after this one, but the round after the next round.

I didn't have as much time to work on this as I thought I was going to, but here it is anyway! As I mentioned in the OCR thread, this song is screaming out for a rock remix, but I wanted to step out of my comfort zone and experiment a bit with some new styles. Hope you enjoy it.

This is my eccentric remix of "Turbo Tunnel Part 2" (Battletoads) done for PRC348. I tried to go for an passive agressive feel becuase the Tubro Tunnel is infamous for its difficulty. I did this my way and returned to PRC again (I thought the tune and by extension level could go in intesting directions). Enjoy ...

This is the most experimental I've done for PRC. It includes 7/4, 6/4, 5/4, 4/4 and 3/4 time signatures and it might not sound like the original. I'm not sure. Enjoy it anyways.

On vacation this week, so I had to get a bonus mix done early. Looking forward to what everyone else comes up with! https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8-q7hg2GtQPZzRReUxFYmktcUU/view?usp=drivesdk

Um, I wanted lyrics, but I really can't sing. Well I can, I suppose, but you'd probably prefer I didn't. Accordingly, I took a bit of a different route and sampled from a speech by George H.W. Bush at the National Air and Space Museum on July 20, 1989. I'm submitting this as a bonus mix since it doesn't really use the original song as much as I'd like. Still, I did use some of the original melody and I wrote it for this PRC, so here it is all the same. I'd appreciate any comments, suggestions, or angry rants you may have. I don't have much experience in writing dubstep, by the way, so if you know something about the genre, I'd especially welcome your feedback.
