The Konami Kode

The Kode Secret - Classic Video Game Band

About Me



The Konami Kode is a video game music cover band. We play songs from all of the old systems, as well as some of the newer ones. Most of the time, we play tunes EXACTLY how they are in the game, and sometimes we jam them out in an original fashion. Live sets feature music from Mega Man, Contra, Super Mario Brothers, Sonic The Hedgehog, Mike Tysons' Punch-Out!, Castelvania, Zelda, Killer Instinct, Paperboy, etc. We know you enjoy these tunes, otherwise we wouldn't be doing this! So check us out sometime, as the shows get quite ridiculous...
