Well, what you can do is when you play smash bros ultimate, just go to settings, slide the music all the way down to the left, then select your fighter and stage and just before you start, open youtube on your ipad or computer and use this music theme and when it starts, play the smash bros ultimate, hope this helps.
The musical variety in this game is unprecedented... jungle jazz, folk instruments, aquatic synth hooks, african percussion, FUCKING METAL *explodes* DAVID WISE PROFESSIONAL DONG EXPANDER
This games soundtrack is very impressive. All of the songs are deep and many of them are over 6 minutes long. Donkey Kong putting many RPG soundtracks to shame. Nintendo is rockin it lately.
That's the power of david wise, and most of the rareware musicians, longer loops makes less repetitive music. It's one of those little things that went a long way
These are all looped, so I believe the only one that is actually close is grassland grove. But yeah, compared to the Mario or Zelda series, which usually feature tracks 1 and a half to just under two minutes long, and then we get DKCTF where most of the tracks are twice that length. Its awesome. If you want really long though, KI:U does have some five minute long tracks (although they are done in the classical style.)
The reason this song wasn't the final boss theme is because the final boss is on Dk's frozen island and if this song was there it would have melted all the ice.
Before Undefeatable went way harder than it should have for a first boss theme, we had this gem. Remember rocking out hard to this when I fought the boss, twas a great time!
The final boss theme fits Fredrik because it’s WAAAAYYY heavier than this and it’s a mix of this and punch bowl. Kind of fits the boss fight and character of Fredrik, he charges like Pompy and shoots ice with a massive weapon like Bashmaster while he’s also much heavier than both physically.
The funny thing is that in the old DKC's on the Snes you can tell the boss songs were often metal. They used midi sounds representing electric guitars. But with the new tech you can tell what it actually is. Go back and listen to older boss tracks you'll notice what I'm saying
@Son Kirbio, @Keganmemestar, & @Ye traveling Xeno Plush I found this remix that appears to be what was originally intended for the SNES version. It begins with an accordion and launches into a heavy metal guitar and drums. And I promise this link is not a virus. m.th-cam.com/video/_leOWa4qw9Y/w-d-xo.html
David Wise knows exactly how to make a perfect juxtaposition between the theme of the game and the theme of the music. He's got this down to a science.
Absolute. Dude blew my mind when he was using similar chord structures with different instrumentation tones between dkc and dkc2 and between the levels of the games themselves
Plot twist - this wasn’t originally the first boss theme. That one person in the orchestra suddenly started shredding on an electric guitar and Nintendo was just like: “Yes.”
@@nerdmetall Yeah, DK ost is seriously underutilized in Smash, a few series have that issue actually, where they have an amazing ost yet only a few popular songs are used. Earthbound, Pikmin, DK, Fire Emblem (With exception of 3 Houses) and many more series have amazing music yet we just get remixes of a few main themes.
@@InternetMonster1 the first 20 and last 20 are the only candidates most of the time, but sadly they pick half good and half that aren't for a fighting game
I've been a fan of DKC before I was a fan of anything else (the first DKC game was my very first game ever, so I'm kinda attached a little bit), so I'm so glad to see that the guys who made Metroid Prime (freaking amazing games) are handling the series now that Rare isn't.
The music only gets better from here guys. Listen through the whole playlist, and you'll realize that we have finally received another godly video game ost that should be remembered throughout the next decade, but will instead be ignored because "Donkey Kong is for kids, hardcore gamers play Last of Us".
In all fairness though, the Last of Us is incredible in every way except it's soundtrack. Also, WHERE DO YOU GET OFF comparing platformers to survival horrors?! Really?! I mean I guess there's a feeling of SURVIVING HORROR when you're jumping through all the chaos in a particularly hard level, but really now...
purplecowadoom Haha, The Last of Us is survival horror? Gameplay-wise, it's a pretty by-the-numbers stealth shooter, and the horror theme is almost non-existent. Go play ZombiU, System Shock 2, or REmake if you want legit survival horror. And anyways, that's not his point. Most gamers will skip TF because it isn't "hardcore" like TLoU. He isn't insulting Naughty Dog's honor; there's no need to get offended.
This song took me by surprise. The boss themes were so non existent in DKCR, and I really wasn't expecting any good music when the fight started. Then this started playing and I was really impressed. Dang this is a cool song
More of I was impressed that there was an actual boss theme. The ones in the previous game were nothing special, just generic little drum beats. But I do genuinely like this song, and I didn't expect a metal song, and it's just really catchy.
Praise be to Retro and David Wise, this is the best 2D Platformer I have played since the original Yoshi's Island. Now get fucking hype for the Punch Bowl in Smash 4! (please)
I got to 3:16 and thought it was an epic finish...and then David just *DROPPED THE BASS HARDER THAN THE SEAL BELLY FLOPPING ON DONKEY KONG.* (Also, fun fact: you can kill the sea urchins in this fight with Cranky, and you can also kill the big fish quickly if you jump on them at the right angle and get three quick jumps in consecutively.)
Returns' first boss: haha ugly frog thing, whatever let's just make a normal song real quick. Tropical Freeze's first boss: Haha big Sea Lion, whatever let's just *make a heavy metal song*
This arena would be great for a SSB5 stage..think about it: the halfpipe at the bottom would be great for pit fights and Pompy could rarely slide through it once or twice, but since the slopes aren't too high they could place platforms above so you don't have to worry too much about him. The walrus guys wouldn't be there to bump you back and like Pompy, they'd show up randomly--maybe only one shows up at times. With the areas on the side this'll be a walk off stage. Platforms would dangle in the middle being made of junk vehicle scrap held by cables and in the background, we'd have enemies from past games spectating. Sometimes it's snomads, other times tikis and maybe some kremlings fill the chairs in the back. They'd sit there watching the fight and cheer when someone's launched, rave when someone's KO'd and boo someone who's idle. If they get angry enough at the idle player, they'll start throwing popcorn and trash at the player from the background! All while this awesome music plays. Can you imagine it? The Omega version will have this place flooded by shark-infested water with one long, thin flat platform of scrapmetal held by two cables from the ceiling. Aquatic enemies from past games will watch in the back and foreground to cheer and rave but that's it, and on the rarest occasion, Squiddicus will stop by to observe. He does nothing but look menacing and interested in the fight, but at bedt he's a minor distraction.
I am very fascinated by the idea, and I am surprised that no one has commented on how amazing this idea is for a stage, it is a pity that this has not happened for the present, maybe in some future Smash
This is such a sick boss song. After all the tropical, happy stuff before this, WHAM you're hit with heavy metal... haha awesome. All the bosses in this game were great. Long fights, usually challenging. Great game.
I never thought I'd say this, but I think I found a song in a game more epic and intense than Marvel Super Heroes VS. Street Fighter's Hidden Character theme. And it's the theme for the first boss in a Donkey Kong Country game.......... DONG EXPANDED BEYOND FEATURE LENGTH
This song makes me feel like I can take on anything! Its nice to see Nintendo putting a bit of heavy metal in their games. Pokemon X & Y, SM3DW, now DKCTF. Then there's Kirby Triple Deluxe. Heavy Metal is the last thing you'd expect to hear in a Kirby game. XD
This has to be one of the best songs ive ever heard. The mix of the piano and guitar riffs are nothing like ive ever heard. A catchy melody mixed with some badass metal. Even after 500 times listened i still cant get enough. David wise truly is a frickin genius.
I like to play a game with people where I play this song and ask them to guess which game it’s from. Then, I love seeing their faces when I tell them the game
Gosh, I have to: *Plays this in a school* Kids: Yo? Where'd you get that sick track? Slip knot? ACDC? Ramstein? Me: Donkey Kong Country! *Shows video* by Nintendo! Nintendo: Hmmm....sales of the Wii U have increased 10 fold lately....
***** XD! Knowing the kids of today, probably, but I may get some street cred for blasting it at volume 11 with a #4 T shirt from animal Crossing and an umbrella. The more obscure you look, the winner you get!
***** Hehe, I actually always wanted to wear a Sonic costume. Keep people asking questions. ...a Sonic Costume with a Master chief helmet playing Super Mario bros on the 3DS and shouting, "It's in the game!" like the EA sports logo.
+Kris Reds There are no news of a new F-Zero; but some guys thought "if Nintendo won't do it, we will" and there's a new Wii U game called "Fast Racing Neo". Check it out. It's pretty much inspired by F-Zero and the music seems to be fast-paced electronic. :D
Introducing returning favorites: El Toro Loco, BigFoot, Blue Thunder, Bulldozer, Monster Mutt, Megalodon, Maximum Destruction, Predator and *Grave Digger* And coming out of retirement: Air Force Afterburner, Avenger, Black Stallion, Captain’s Curse, Raminator, Snake Bite, Gunslinger and Reptoid
i will never get over how they not only made this the most badass track, but also made it one of the longest in the entire game, covering the whole 5 minutes. On the first boss. what?
So reminds me of Erazor Djinn's theme from Sonic and the Secret Rings. At least the intro does. STill, after the lol that was Rock Rock Mountain, I gotta admit I'm blown away to hear rock music this good on a Nintendo game. Maybe they have been taking notes from Sega...? Either way, imagine Dixie rocking out to this back in DKC2's time!
Luink7 Yeah, I read the comment about F-Zero X after I wrote that. Though in fairness, one of the F-Zero games was made in cooperation with Sega I believe. I knew Ninty had it in them, but for a Mario style game, this is a first. (Gourmet Race from Brawl doesn't count. XD)
Mario Mastar GX was made 'in cooperation' (in actual fact, it was developed by Sega's AV team, and published by Nintendo). F-Zero X was made back when Sega and Nintendo were still against each other, and F-Zero GX was only a few years after they abandoned the Dreamcast. Although for rock in Mario games, look at the boss battles in Super Mario 3D World. They definitely do have rock in that game.
The final boss theme of Super Mario World was remixed in Fortune Street into one of the most metal songs I've ever heard. I suggest you look that one up.
rainmaker113 Nintendo does have the potential. I'm still getting over Gourmet Race in Brawl actually. Bowser's stages always tended to have good heavy rock music though, but I'll check that out.

it would be cool if a DKC had every old enemy and a new faction (tho executed better than Sonic Forcing me to be dissapointed)
Agreed. Hopefully that will be done in a next Smash game.
@@JoseMat2953 Heck, hope they can add this as extra music for DLC anyway. I’d definitely pay.
This is how a boss theme should be done. David Wise, Kenji Yamamoto, yall owned this one.

This wasn't done by David Wise nor Kenji Yamamoto,but by Daisuke Matsuoka,who also did the score for Samus Returns.

Hey, a circus boss! It'll probably have music similar to Hisstocrat in 3D World!

XD! Knowing the kids of today, probably, but I may get some street cred for blasting it at volume 11 with a #4 T shirt from animal Crossing and an umbrella.
The more obscure you look, the winner you get!
***** Hehe, I actually always wanted to wear a Sonic costume. Keep people asking questions. ...a Sonic Costume with a Master chief helmet playing Super Mario bros on the 3DS and shouting, "It's in the game!" like the EA sports logo.
Genius.
Shulk called, he wants his Metal OST back :P
(He's not really feelin' it without it)
10 years later and still a bop
If there is ever a 3rd installment in this rebooted version of the Franchise i def want David to come back and compose it
This song needs to be in Smash 4.
Red Legend Sadly, it's not. Maybe it'll be in Smash 5.
Please be in Smash Ultimate!
This song needs to be in Smash 6
@@ArcRogerr its not in smash ultimate, a squandered opportunity....and a disappointment.
Nintendo: this is just a funni seal, dont go too hard.
David Wise: sure
This track is SO AWESOME!
This game really thought "Yeah let's just make half of the game's bosses have the most badass tracks in the series"
I remember raging at bosses in this game at 2015, good old memories
This goes harder than the final boss music imo
And it's the world 1 boss
This boss theme bops!
That's way the level is called big top bop
Years later, and I can say with 100% certainty, once again, David Wise COOKED
You know it’s a good song when the “most replayed” peak is at the beginning of the video
Heavy metal boss music for a world 1 boss that’s a sea lion named Pompy?
I’m not complaining.
I categorically don’t listen to heavy metal, but damn after encountering the first boss and hearing this masterpiece I just had to make an exception.
When your boss music guy has no idea what the boss fight is like, but goes 100% anyway.
Lmao this is a fact, wasn't expecting to hear this amazing track for a dancing seal
I would trust this man for an F-Zero soundtrack if they ever make another (please do)
+Kris Reds There are no news of a new F-Zero; but some guys thought "if Nintendo won't do it, we will" and there's a new Wii U game called "Fast Racing Neo". Check it out. It's pretty much inspired by F-Zero and the music seems to be fast-paced electronic. :D
+Nyah Senai Actually Shigeru already mentioned that they're planning to do a new F-Zero game.
ShadowFalconPictures
For the Wii U? :D
+Nyah Senai I think for Nx
Old comments, I know, but source, please? Everything I've seen says the exact opposite.
Recuerdo que cuando jugué este juego la primera vez en el Wii U y llegué a este jefe dije "joder no me esperaba un temazo asi en un DK"
WHATS THIS? SEA LION COMING WITH THE STEEL CHAIR!
BAH GAWD, SOMEBODY STOP THE DAMN MATCH
THIS IS THE SOLE REASON I WANT A WII U.
....YUP.
Just buy a metal record guys. Or a bunch lol. If you enjoy this there's so much you could discover that you could like.
Zyborggian Yeah, but great music by itself is nothing compared to what happens when great music combines with a great game.
Or buy a Nintendo switch they have this game
My god this is amazing!
Damn there's a reason why its called Big Top Bop
I love this song, I can't belive that this is from a DK game xD
Man, DKC Eternal is sounding brutal! LOVE it!
Funny thing is that both games are the peak of their genre and franchise.
I really wasn't expecting this rockin' masterpiece in a Donkey Kong game... but I LOOOOOOOOVE IIIIIIT!
Not the song I was expecting for a seal on world one in a Donkey Kong game. Amazing
Play this in Monster JAM!!!! WORTH IT!!!!!
Introducing returning favorites: El Toro Loco, BigFoot, Blue Thunder, Bulldozer, Monster Mutt, Megalodon, Maximum Destruction, Predator and *Grave Digger*

@@SrMechaGojira93DING DING
i will never get over how they not only made this the most badass track, but also made it one of the longest in the entire game, covering the whole 5 minutes.
On the first boss.
what?
Should've been the final boss theme.
Too fast-paced for the slow battle against Lord Fredrik, but it could be the final boss theme for another game.
This should have been the last boss theme.
Have you HEARD the final boss theme?
Yes and it's not as good.
Holy shit. I watched a video of the final boss, but muted it and played that music instead.
It fits so much it's almost outrageous.
Punch bowl also would have fit the final boss much better lol.
That music is very nice. That is a very good music for a boss.
So reminds me of Erazor Djinn's theme from Sonic and the Secret Rings. At least the intro does.
STill, after the lol that was Rock Rock Mountain, I gotta admit I'm blown away to hear rock music this good on a Nintendo game. Maybe they have been taking notes from Sega...?
Either way, imagine Dixie rocking out to this back in DKC2's time!
Go and listen f-zero x music.
Luink7
Yeah, I read the comment about F-Zero X after I wrote that. Though in fairness, one of the F-Zero games was made in cooperation with Sega I believe. I knew Ninty had it in them, but for a Mario style game, this is a first. (Gourmet Race from Brawl doesn't count. XD)
Mario Mastar GX was made 'in cooperation' (in actual fact, it was developed by Sega's AV team, and published by Nintendo). F-Zero X was made back when Sega and Nintendo were still against each other, and F-Zero GX was only a few years after they abandoned the Dreamcast.
Although for rock in Mario games, look at the boss battles in Super Mario 3D World. They definitely do have rock in that game.
The final boss theme of Super Mario World was remixed in Fortune Street into one of the most metal songs I've ever heard. I suggest you look that one up.
rainmaker113 Nintendo does have the potential. I'm still getting over Gourmet Race in Brawl actually. Bowser's stages always tended to have good heavy rock music though, but I'll check that out.
Big Top Bop's Superstunt Show!
This should be in Smash 6.
This song should have been in all boss battles. It's absolutely insane!
