Monkey Island Theme on Eight Floppy Drives:

This one surprised me. I didn’t imagine there would be such a kind of remix:

Back to the versions I enjoy more, this Le Chuck’s jazz is nice:

I’d like to visit a virtual reality universe where I can eat at a restaurant where they’re playing dinner jazz LeChuck, then on to a club where they’re playing Banana Inc Monkey Island theme*. Then perhaps a moonlit stroll with flute Monkey Island theme.

*I hate clubbing, so I’d only stay for that song.

Hmmm maybe VR could have some valuable uses after all…

Well, there’s also a Pirates of the Caribbean style version of the Monkey Island main theme!

It’s like taking the style of a rip-off to re-do parts of the original!

I still prefer other versions, like the one performed live by Michael Land, Peter McConnell & Clint Bajakian (though I guess it doesn’t count as fan-made):

Yes. The PotC style doesn’t fit somehow. It sounds like they have “tortured” the original theme to fit into the PotC theme.

Another nice piano version of the MI theme:

The scumm bar theme version is also very good:

Grim Fandango Rap by Dan Bull

Edit: I really like it, the song is quite catchy, it’s like one of those aural snakes.
It also reminds of Lin-Manuel.

This reminds me the old western music themes by Ennio Morricone…

Amazing!

Found this absolutely ages ago on Spotify and always wondered who the people that recorded it were, as I have always thought the similarities between MI and Grim’s music was notable…

Couldn’t believe my eyes when I found a live video this evening… these musician are top tier. The arrangement is genius.
