[@jtg55]

I was genuinely surprised at how well the SNES managed to do all that FM synth-style instruments on its sample-based system. Thank you David Wise, Robin Beanland, and Eveline Fischer!

[@marcievania]

nah DKC2 was just wise

[@jtg55]

I meant the 3 games as a whole. I know DKC2 was just Wise.

[@CravensBen]

true geniuses!

[@hamish3808]

The start to this song will forever be in my brain

[@kayorego6420]

My favourite track from DKC2

Unrelated but i never realized Kong quest was supposed to be a wordplay on conquest oh my god

[@SnevilGrey]

Ohh, so it's like both "Diddy Kong's Quest" and "Diddy's Conquest" :0

[@LockeRobsta]

4:42 The miners lament. This bit of wizardry makes me think of We All Lift Together!

[@shoomus]

I'd like to see DK island swing from the first donkey kong country deconstructed

[@NavigatorAlia]

I tried to do a General MIDI version of this music, sounds ok, but never with this sound quality (it's general MIDI after all)
Great work!

[@bigboomer1013]

Think you could deconstruct disco train? Would also love to see some pive for the 3rd game. Favorite stage music is water world

[@Saxdude26]

YES! Favourite track of all DKC2's tracks. Loved this.

[@SomaC-7]

I was waiting for this one! I love it!

[@CheddarVG]

Another relaxing vibe, I see.

[@jarrellfamily1422]

Dsp 3 is doing alot of heavy lifting

[@fer23super]

Amazing thank you!!!!!

[@PhantomWorksStudios]

O wow. After listening to this and watching the wave forms. The midi's doesn't do this track justace(sorry sequencers. I do love your attempts at this but just now realized there are some parts that went unnoticed and no its not your guys fault as we never had a chance to break the track down like this)
Once I'm done moving in and finishing some projects I will get started on this track!!

[@Anderson.jrgames6789]

Is good music

[@masterboa6321]

Not sure why, but the start of the song gives off very vague Terraria vibes

[@Dragonking3787]

was hoping for a break down of the percussion but oh well lol

[@Fvandermolen]

I have always wondered which synth or module this sound (0:36) came from? Like, is it General MIDI? Or perhaps a sound canvas module? If anyone knows please let me know!

[@Rainy-yp6je]

LOL, GM wasn't used nor a sound canvas. It's mostly KORG Instruments (and not the Damn KORG M1)

[@Fvandermolen]

I know. Korg Wavestation it was and also Roland Alpha Juno 2, I have the synth. Just curious if it would be something more.

[@ArthurRainbow]

FYI the play list in the description of the video are broken and send to youtube home page

[@googfix]

Could you do column dive from columns 3?

[@Sadeness99]

I can't believe nobody realizes this is MJ's they don't care about us. It even has the breakdown part from the song. Holy crap.

[@KhairoAetos]

Both were recorded around the same time probably. Wouldn't be surprised if there was some sort of six degrees of separation betwen David wise and MJ

[@Fvandermolen]

Actually sounds more like Kraftwerk - Metal On Metal

[@skakirask]

The percussion always reminded me more of "Shout" by Tears for Fears.

[@aguilarrojasoctavio4402]

I also felt inspiration from some MJ thing in David Wise compositions

[@KC-bg1th]

@@KhairoAetos
Listen to the bassline of 'New Junk City' from Earthworm Jim and then Higher Ground by RHCP. It's one of the most overlooked 'inspirations' in Video Gaming.

[@fatjellyfish5815]

If you dont mind me asking, how do you get each instrument of a certain song separately

[@CravensBen]

You can isolate them out with special hardware because of the way the SNES handles audio! You really have to know your way around computer chips, though. Definitely above my pay grade, but there are some really great TH-cam videos explaining it!

[@CODMarioWarfare]

SPC players let you turn on and off channels

[@backwardsface3046]

@@CravensBen you do know you can do it in software without even needing a rom of the game, right?
