    Searching on YouTube, you can find 8-bit remixes of almost anything.

    But no matter where and how hard I try, I can't seem to find any 8 bit remixes of EverQuest Music, neither from EQ I or EQ II...

    Does anyone know any of those? Or are there even a few 8 bit compositors who feel up for the challenge?

    I'd love to see some of the EQII music 8-bit-alized...

    wont happen. most EQ music is midi anyway, so you could probably play it with sid sounds without too much work.
    people prefer to remix TV music and hits on 8 bit, not modern PC games, or remix 8-bit songs on new platforms.

    There are 8-bit remixes of everything from chocolate rain, kyary pamyu pamyu, disney movies, Super Mario 3D World, Deus Ex, Silent Hill and everything but the sink (unless there is a sink 8 bit remix in which case I apologize if the sink was offended).

    Both the EQ2 main theme and the Hold of Rime: Ascent themes would do great 8 bit remixes. As would the short song that plays in Obol Plains near the swampy beach.

    EQ2 needs some 8 bit remixes done.

    I wish SoE had a competition for it. If nothing else, it would be good PR.

    And the midi files are only true for EQ1, in EQ2 the music is all MP3.
