Video game music cover artists

(Copy/pasted from Facebook, with slight html enhancements)

Who are some good video game music cover artists (and of other stuff, I guess, but I'm mostly interested in video game music) on Youtube, or elsewhere? I don't mean just remixers. If I wanted that, I could just go to OCRemix. (Wait, is that even still around anymore? *checks* Okay, good. But that's not precisely what I'm looking for right now, regardless.)

Ones that I'm following now are:Also, anime/cartoon/movie/TV music covers would be okay too, even if they don't do video game stuff.

Also also, while I'm certainly fine with rock/metal stuff (e.g. GaMetal/RichaadEB), I'm more interested in stuff like the acapella or the more acoustic/folksy type stuff.

Can't say I follow much in the way of actual cover artists or remixers myself. I learned of Alina Gingertail from you - not sure if I knew about Smooth McGroove before you or as a result of you as well. XD

If you're a fan of touhou music then you can find all sorts of remixes to those tunes on bandcamp pretty much all over the place. The result of ZUN being pretty open with fan projects and the like - which is also why there was such an explosion of Touhou fan games (and official games) on Steam and consoles over the last year.

Touhou Lunar Nights is a fun game btw if you see it on sale on Steam. Basically a metroidvania crossed with a bullet shooter (particularly the bosses...). Pretty well done imo. Now that I think about it I still haven't beaten the extra boss for the epilogue portion...
