You know that Tetris soundtrack? Well it wasn't always like that. This version of Tetris named the 'Minuet Version' has a completly different soundtrack. In this video I will show you how to find one in the wild and also take a listen to the creepy alternative soundtrack!

I remember back in the day of gba flash carts discovering this version of Tetris quite by accident, downloaded a version of the rom and everything seemed normal til I got to the music select screen. At the time was shocked by it, but later found myself wanting to go back to it, by this point the more common dump floating around was the 1.1 version so it litterally took more digging to find at the time.
