Dragonforce is the most popular Power Metal band in the world right now. So I decided to make a tribute to their incredibly fast beats. This mep will feature the most powerful points in their songs without lyrics. In the future I may make another one that focuses on their lyrics but right now their beats are more important.

Here is the full mix: Dragonforce MEP (Full Mix)
(Yes, the opening qoute in the Full Mix will be used on the MEP because its true.)
Just download the full mix and use the timeframes listed below or pick a track and download it seperately by clicking on the Green Text. You can easily listen to them separately using the full mix by placing them on a timeline in premiere and then inserting the timeframes listed all so.

(Taken:NerdStrudel, Anime:DBZ) - (Speed Rating: * to ***) - (Length: Long)
<b>Notes:</b> This track starts out slow with some huge build up in potential then takes off full force speed wise. Make sure to use this potential... It's important because this is the middle of the amv, need to keep the viewers interest.

(Taken: Cast To Stone, Anime: Highlander) - (Speed Rating: **) - (Length: Short)
<b>Notes:</b> Ending track try to have a battle that has ended maybe so I can fade it out.
