Arrangement: Biker Mice from Mars (Full Theme Song)
My simplified take on the full theme song from one of the craziest cartoons ever made, "Biker Mice from Mars." It was clearly an example of trying to capitalize on the popularity of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles." (Other examples from this era from the 90s include Bucky O'Hare, Wild West C.O.W.-Boys of Moo Mesa, and SWAT Kats: The Radical Squadron.) Note that I did the theme from the original 90s version; the show got a remake in 2006, and rumors are circulating (but not confirmed) that there is another reboot in the works (alongside the new SWAT Kats series still trying to get off the ground).
Given what I had to work with, however, I chose to do it in a similar vein to my arrangement of the theme for "Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers," so my arrangement is for the following:
Sax section (alto, tenor, baritone)
Vibraphone
2 electric guitars
Bass guitar
Drums
Piano
