    Sounds like a (Boss-)fight theme for a video game. As such it is nicely done. But i for one don't get the "evil"-feeling from it. For that it would have to be slower and perhaps indicate the feeling of impending doom through lower pitched sounds. Sorry if this doesn't make much sense. English isn't my native tongue.

      Here's the original track from the NES game. Startropics as a whole had a lighthearted vibe so it's unsurprising that the boss theme wasn't particularly intense. The game was a fun action platformer, so even though the monsters were "evil", it made more sense to arrange the track with that emphasis on action. The title Locked In with Evil is just because Boss Battle sounded kinda boring.

        I see. I do like what you made of the track though. I wonder what an "evil" theme would sound like if you did it from scratch.

          No idea! I've never had an opportunity to make one. Although... The Body Count soundtrack... That might qualify as "evil". But of course, that's tightly under wraps ;9

            I wasn't thinking of modifying an existing soundtrack. i was thinking about creating it from scratch.

              Body Count is an original video game by us at ControllerTape. But as I say... tightly under wraps ;9
