GamesBeat doesn’t have a great reputation when it comes to being good at Cuphead (even though I beat it just fine when I was reviewing it). But we really do quite like the challenging side-scroller, and that adoration extends to the run-‘n’-gunner’s soundtrack.

The original tunes sound great, but fans have a knack for finding ways to arrange their favorite video game songs in clever and interesting ways. Enter “Pluckhead,” a string arrangement of Cuphead’s old-timey songs.

You can find the album on Spotify, iTunes, and Bandcamp. It comes from the artist String Player Gamer, which has also created albums based on music from Undertale, The Legend of Zelda, Castlevania, and other classic games and franchises.

It’s all good stuff, so take some time and check out their work.
