Song of the Week 2: 'Legend of the Snake' by Reuben Kee

Song of the Week returns for the second time with another arrangement from OverClocked ReMix (http://www.ocremix.org/). This one is from Metal Gear Solid, called Legend of the Snake, by Reuben Kee. Reuben Kee died in a boating accident only 2 months after I joined the OCR community on the forums (http://www.ocremix.org/forums/showthread.php?t=13286&highlight=Reuben) (http://www.ocremix.org/forums/showthread.php?t=13320&highlight=Reuben). He has some truely amazing music and excellent piano skills. The song page for this remix can be found at http://www.ocremix.com/remix/OCR01322/ and to listen to this song go to http://ocrmirror.org/Metal_Gear_Solid_LegendoftheSnake_OC_ReMix.mp3. I love the piano at the beginning and the intensity that builds into several recognizeable themes for those who've played Metal Gear Solid before. I have actually not played any Metal Gear games except for Metal Gear Solid Mobile on my cell phone. Still this remains an epic piece, another one of my favorites. Excellent stuff.

Broken link.

Now the sad thing is that it took this long for anyone to notice. I fixed it.

Till broken for me.

Also, perhaps rather than not being noticed, it broke some time ago.

Met said...

True, probably back when OCR did site renovation and removed the sidebar. Wow, that was a while ago.

Reogan said...

How long?

Met said...

6 months to a year ago.

Wow. I missed that entirely.
