Evangelion Chiptune Music by Studio Megaane
By The Eva Monkey on Monday, July 11th, 2016
After spending some time with Andrew’s Evangelion Chiptune album the other day, I did some poking around on YouTube for some other substantial efforts to recreate Evangelion’s iconic themes with lo-fidelity sound chips. In particular, I came across Studio Megaane, which has done an impressive volume of chiptune renditions, with a strong preferance for mecha anime. So it should come as no surprise that they’ve done an entire album’s worth of Evangelion themes. Studio Megaane appears to work primarily with the Famicom/NES, and after spending some time listening to their rendition of tracks like Soul’s Refrain, Kokoro yo Genshi ni Modore, and Beautiful World, I definitely feel like they’re pretty accomplished with translating music to 8-bit sound. For your convenience, I created a playlist of just their Evangelion tracks, it’s definitely worth giving a listen.
