In 1991 I was 6 years old... Toejam & Earl subconsciously (mostly consciously) made me a huge fan of the Funk Genre. Long story short. I'm almost 40 & have been playing Funk Bass for close to 23 years...
I can't tell you guys how many times I've listened to this medley. This is amazing and brings me back to the good old days. I'll probably listen to it a million more times.
This game had one of THE BEST soundtracks. Great work! I love how your drummer switches to the pads when the keys aren't going to keep some of the digital elements in the mix
Ha ha I used to do that too (this is the bassist), and when someone would catch it they would be so happy. They make me happy too! Such great basslines!
I honestly expected this to have a million views. What did everyone else do with their childhood? And how in the Funkotron does this have any dislikes?
Folks, thank you all so much for the amazing comments and over 10,000 views!! Like many people, we've been halted by the pandemic for all of 2020, but we're getting ready to regroup and work on some more music for y'all! We've got 2 new things in the works right now and of course we'll be working on Panic on Funkotron some time in the near future :) Thank you for being patient with us and for showing some love for funky video game music. We'll see you soon!! (Chris, bassist)
I found this vid because I periodically revisit the Panic on Funkotron soundtrack. Please do a medley of that one! I think the second game's soundtrack was even better. Straight Herbie Hancock inspired. Loved watchin you guys jam out on this, hope to see more. Also, as someone who used to play jazz bass as a teenager, Chris crushed that! God damn!
Thank you so much! It was definitely inspired by the fact that there was nothing like it (that I could find) on the internet so far. Sometimes you have to make the thing you want to see!
Man, this is so good. If I could hire you guys to play this on a loop behind me wherever I went, I don't think it'd be possible to ever have a bad day again Would love to hear you cover Panic on Funkotron!
This is so awesome! You guys even added the electronic drum kit interludes with the odd fraction of a second delays... (I always assumed it was because of the Yamaha YM2612 chip). Amazing job on all tracks though. Super!
I typed in t&j cover and you were the 1st to come up. I was not let down you guys nailed it!!!!!!! Thank you so much this made my day. Also love that you had the sounds programmed into the drum kit!!!
Thanks so much! Actually did not know we are the first result :O Yeah it just so happened that Justin had the drum pad and we just knew we had to do it ha ha
It is indeed one of the very best two player games ever made. True genius. I mean what other game (not including mmporg and online shooters etc) is actually best played with two? I always felt a bit bored if I played it solo. The earthlings, the presents omg I could on.
OK yeah, this was awesome. I mean, you could have done just the first track and people would have been thrilled, but you went ahead and did the entire soundtrack. Bravo !
this is fantastic, seriously thank you for this arrangement, it's so true to the original with little improvisation (if any). I had and played this game a LOT as a kid, and I actually beat it on random mode when I was like 9 years old, something I am still very proud of :) ps: the hot tub snare drum had me rolling!
Great video guys, you nailed it! Best cover of toejam songs, alien rapmaster seems one of the trickiest ones in term of arrangement and playing in a band. Sick bass lines and mix of sync keyboard and guitar. Not to mention drums all along the tracks. Kudos for you keep up the good work
I had that same Zelda/Mario bed sheet as a kid. Also had Ninja Turtles sheets and Pound Puppies pillow cases. This is such a well done song. It upgrades the sound quality of the music without compromising the spirit of it. It's fantastic.
Thanks Jack! Fun fact: We are supposed to be REHEARSING some new material right now but we can't thanks to quarantine lol. Thank you for enjoying what we made so far though!

The best live toe jam performance through TH-cam.
Congratz guys!
SEGA/Paramount really need to make a movie based on these characters.
We are available to record the soundtrack, get at us SEGA and Paramount!
I got some news for you buddy
Basketball player Steph Curry is looking into it
When that first bass lick of Alien Breakdown hit, I descended to level zero
(Headphones with decent bass required)
If this isn't played at my funeral I'm not dying
Congratulations on potentially living forever!
Sweet Jesus this is it!!!!
I can't tell you guys how many times I've listened to this medley. This is amazing and brings me back to the good old days. I'll probably listen to it a million more times.

I just wanna like, hang out with you guys. Y'all seem chill AF.
I'm so glad this exists. Funkiest video game ever made. I always play TJ&E bass lines during sound check and see if anyone catches it.
Ha ha I used to do that too (this is the bassist), and when someone would catch it they would be so happy. They make me happy too! Such great basslines!
i would
Come to Glasgow.
I love that this exists. I was just trying to see if anyone covered Funkotronic Beat, and you guys did the entire OST! This is amazing!
Each and every one of you are PERFECT on every song! Your playing is so good that I can hear OOGIE BOOGIE BOOGIE every now and then.
This snare drum is honor to us.
Hahaha yesssss! ToeJam & Earl was me and my brothers all time favorite! You guys are awesome! 💚
love how the keyboardist is making room for toejam and earl to get down
Nothing but RESPECT
I love how you have the elevator music between tracks. :)
JAMMIN'!
Much love from the child that still exists in me
y'all ain't no poindexters at all, y'all are funklords!!! awesome!!
30 years later, this tune still sits in my head.
I came looking for lo-fi, but this is amazingly done and, I guess, just as chill as what I needed!
No Poindexters here… pure Funk Lords 😎 Thanks for making this, it’s made 11 year old me smile all the way from the ‘90s
Yo im a weiner yo.
The fact that this only has 6.8k views as of Dec 2020 is a disgrace. I hope this vaults into 2021! #Money! #Wahhhhhhh
I honestly expected this to have a million views. What did everyone else do with their childhood? And how in the Funkotron does this have any dislikes?
We suspect they're all dentists
@@SuperHiTopsVGM I imagine them more as lawnmower guys. Either way, not people you’d ever want to hang around with.
Oh, using the electronic drum to replicate the elevator beats was genius. 15 minutes well spent, time to put this on loop for my morning commute.
Broooo this shit goes hard!!! Toejam n earl was a staple part of my childhood in the 90s and you guys absolutely nailed it!
The funkotronic beat sounds the most difficult to cover tbh but you guys did a good job

Best news in times! Hahaha! Good to know that. You guys are TOO AWESOME to release only one video!

Thank You !!!! Four years and still listenning!!!! Yummmin!!!!
I've probly watched this 100 times since it came out... best version of these songs on the internet IMO
Thank you so much! It was definitely inspired by the fact that there was nothing like it (that I could find) on the internet so far. Sometimes you have to make the thing you want to see!
Stunningly put together, talented humans. I love you.
This is the best thing my ears have ever experienced
I hate to see how someone loves that game more than i do 😅 just kidding. Awesome, guys! Thanks for a great jam ;)❤
I'm about to cry of joy! The first Toejam & Earl has my all-time favorite OST from games. Songs have a special place in my heart.
I’m not sure why you did it, but I’m damn glad you did.
THIS IS AMAZING. WE'RE NOT WORTHY.
Thank you. Smiling from ear to ear
Perfect!!
Jammin'!
Elevator Beats Transitions got me subbed!
Mad respect to the Bassist!
Hey thanks!
Man, this is so good. If I could hire you guys to play this on a loop behind me wherever I went, I don't think it'd be possible to ever have a bad day again
Would love to hear you cover Panic on Funkotron!
Y'all are unbelievable but the electric keyboardist is truly a special kind of awesome!
Wedge is amazing (this is not her writing this btw lol), you should also check out The Returners VGM for more of her video game keyboard chops!
@@SuperHiTopsVGM Yeah, I grew up with this game. I think it's incredible how y'all got all the tone and vibe perfect. The Returners rule, too!
I want you to play at my wedding, my first born's birth, and my funeral
What a weekend! :O
@@SuperHiTopsVGM ha.
@@SuperHiTopsVGM 🤣 HAHAHAHA!! ROFLMAO!
@@SuperHiTopsVGM LMFAO Perfect
Send it into space
You guys have no idea how much I appreciate this
This is the single most greatest thing I have ever seen/heard in my entire life.
Sorry for the grammar Nazism, but it's either "most great" or "greatest"; "most greatest" is a double negative.
@@antipsychotic451 I think they could go further with mostest greatest, which would be a quadruple positive
This was so Awesome, Thanks! These Toe Jammin, Big Earl Slammin, Wham Bammin Thank You Mammin Melodies Made my day!
So awesome to see this performed live at Classic Game Fest, cheers folks!
just found this. Toejam Jammin & Funkotronic Beat *chefs kiss*
That's a very life-like drum machine you got there
aaaaaAAAACHU
Thank you for this. We are watching true Funk Masters. The Great Funkopotamous is proud!
Jammin’
Alright!
This is everything I wanted and more 😂 Amazing work with this you guys, it sounds amazing and was a ton of fun to listen to on my walk today lol
Thank you! We try to make our covers as ambulatory as possible, really pleased to see it's working!
This is absolutely amazing one of my favorite games. I’m extremely impressed
This is so awesome!
You guys even added the electronic drum kit interludes with the odd fraction of a second delays... (I always assumed it was because of the Yamaha YM2612 chip). Amazing job on all tracks though. Super!
Man... You all made me cry... Tnx
This legitimately made me grin. Thanks for the positive vibes.
Fantastic!!! Perfectly faithful, and making great time. Thank you for sharing this awesomesauce
Wow... I've had a wonderful dejà vu. Thanks a lot!!

@@SuperHiTopsVGM it turned out amazing yall rock!!
This. Is. Awesome. I keep a Sega Genesis just for Toejam and Earl. My cats were named Toejam and earl. This. Is. Awesome
I got it for the Nintendo Wii. Cost a tenner for the download, awesome.
@@zeldagoblin recently??
@@aaronmartin9204 a few years ago. My brother recently got the original for playstation though

That is awesome! But in my humble opinion, there are so many other great Genesis games alongside TJ&E
OK yeah, this was awesome. I mean, you could have done just the first track and people would have been thrilled, but you went ahead and did the entire soundtrack. Bravo !

Simple yet genius
This is so awesome. Great job yall
Bravo Bravo Bravo!!!
Perfect!!! 👏👏👏
This is in my regular roto at work. Blasting it out in an open kitchen.
I love how you guys respect the silent spaces in the grooves. I would love to hear you playing the Pilotwings 64 soundtrack.
very very good
I had that same Zelda/Mario bed sheet as a kid. Also had Ninja Turtles sheets and Pound Puppies pillow cases. This is such a well done song. It upgrades the sound quality of the music without compromising the spirit of it. It's fantastic.
The snare drum hot tub from Level 0. Epic win!
perfect balance between digital and analog sounds
i've been watching this on repeat for three days in a row already! it's amazing, thank you for this :)
Best music video in TH-cam
Niiiiice, bringing back ALL the memories!
I love it!
I have only one thing to say:
JAMMIN'!
I just want to say Thank You. Truly.
That big earl bump hits different!
Dope!!!! I love it!! ❤️🔥💯
A perfect cover of toe jam and Earl never existed until now. Thanks!!!
Absolutely brilliant 👍
Amazing! I remembered my 12-year-old playing on my SEGA GENESIS in the long-ago 1992.
Perfect!!!
This is the funkiest. You nailed it!
I was just figuring if anyone had done this and yes! Thanks!
the whole dang soundtrack in ONE take! and those spot-on tempo changes! wow! 👏👏
This is what i needed in quarantine. Cheers guys
Thanks Jack! Fun fact: We are supposed to be REHEARSING some new material right now but we can't thanks to quarantine lol. Thank you for enjoying what we made so far though!
Meu Deus! Escuto toda vez!! Nota millllll!
I love how base-focused this soundtrack is.
WOW. Thank you for that. That's so great. I remember all the songs, somehow they stayed in my head since the 1990s 😆
