Need help identifying an NES music track

Basically, the situation is:

Ok here is a fan-made game, "Bowser the Warrior". Keep in mind that the game was made using The Games Factory, so don't be surprised if it doesn't control too well (or seem well in any other respect).

For the above game, at the title screen, hold control+shift and press enter. You'll access the BGM menu.

I'm interested in BGM 11.

Does anyone recognize it from any NES game? It's an 8-bit kind of fan game BTW.

Okay, gonna try to repost this. Last time it froze on me.

The music is neat, but isn't from a game, you can tell it has a homebrew type feeling to it.

Gameplay isn't that good, and the guy's main language can NOT be English, it has to be a second or third.

However, the concept is interesting, and the graphics aren't too bad either.

Although I appreciate your input on this, I'm sorry but I have to doubt that it's a BGM made from the ground up. Knowing the creator, he only has the knowledge and skill to design the game itself, and not creating music (and even then, the game isn't that... but he's no expert and he used The Games Factory to make it. Also, he's polish, which explains his poor English). Plus, he's the only developer behind the project.

I have reason to believe it came from an actual NES game also because all other tracks in his games come from NES games. Perhaps he cut the tune down to loop at a much shorter time?

Still, you may be right, but I'd like to get a second opinion on this.

I thought it sounded similar to a Ninja Gaiden Game, but none of those games had that song in the soundtrack.

Yeah, I checked the 3 NES Ninja Gaiden games. Plus I checked the NSF's for other possible Tecmo NES games.

Anyone???

It's Kick Master, track 17. (Played at a higher pitch/speed.)

That track wasn't really a Ninja Gaiden sound, more consistently of a Natsume sound, so I checked all of Natsume's NSFs, and a few Taito ones too. Bingo.

Hey, thanks so much, bro! Awesome!

I hope you can forgive me for bumping an old thread.

I found a music track:
jilost_-_belmonts_revenge_praying_hands.nsf

Does anybody know if there is another game that uses this track? I have never played Belmont's Revenge, but I definitely recognize it.

If somebody can help, I really appreciate it!!!

edit: Sorry about the mess.
edit2: Broadened scope.

The BGM's that you can find in Bowser The Warrior 2 are from Vice: Project Doom, so I think the ones in Bowser The Warrior 1 are from American Sammy NES games.
