Bubble Bobble - Introduction ~ Main Theme (Famicom 2A03+Konami VRC7 Cover) (4-7-2026)

Crazy to think it's been over 2 years since I last did something with the audio capabilities of the Konami VRC7 in Dn-FamiTracker. Though in the time since then, I've done some stuff with the YM2413/OPLL, the chip that was cloned for the audio processor of the VRC7. Some of you might already know that I love the iconic bell patch that was used for the music in Taito's 1986 arcade classic Bubble Bobble, and I've used it plenty of times on the OPLL as well as the YM3812/OPL2. I was recently discussing with some friends how I'd love to someday do music for mods or ROM hacks, and I realized that I could demonstrate that by attempting to replicate the arcade sound of Bubble Bobble on the Famicom.
