- Hitting the large variety of styles for this game was really cool. Video game music was really starting to come into its own around this time, and it's reflected in how game soundtracks started getting much longer around 1987. You'll notice the production and synth variety in this project is much greater compared to my SMB1 work.
I located the source of another of the percussive elements used in the original game, so "Sea Side", "The Sky", "Iced Land", and "Pipe Maze" now reflect that. "Swimming" has improved MIDI sequencing (thanks to feedback from Church of Kondo's The Brickster for that). "Overworld" and "Ending" have slightly better sounding steel drums.

This video appears to be hitting it big. That's great!
To those new to the channel, I usually upload individual songs, posting projects in chunks as I complete them. These compilations you've been seeing are of projects I originally completed a good while ago, with minor adjustments here and there as noted in the descriptions. You can check the Playlist tab for other projects I've done--I've done more than NES games, and moving forward my focus will be on 90s game music for a good while. I'd like to compose more original music too--right now I have just one original song up.
Check the Community tab for downloads. Thanks for listening!
How so?
What did you use to make this?
@@thirdeye440 VSTs and soundfonts of a lot of 80s synth/sample libraries. There might be more (it's been awhile) but I definitely did use:
-Roland L-CD1/S-50/S-550 libraries
-Roland MT-32 (main drums)
-Roland D-50
-Roland JUPITER-8
-OMI Universe of Sounds Vol. 1 & 2
-E-mu Emulator II factory library
-Ensoniq Mirage (timpani)
-InVision Lightware (didn't know this at the time but it came out in '89, oops...)
Hey there, do you have a bandcamp or other site in which I can purchase these tracks in a higher bitrate?
@@DannyTan6675 No.
It's like when playing those PC games that had a MIDI soundtrack that you always heard with default LQ samples, and you finally get to plug in the actual synth the soundtrack was composed for.
Like the Sony MIDI Instrument pack that came with Final Fantasy 7. That thing enhanced so many games!
These are definitely MIDI files. Nothing remastered about this.
@@joeythibodeaux4300It's not "remastered" as in taking the original mix and improving the EQ and all hes. You could say it is re-rendered since it is indeed the original MIDI files played with another synth and recorded this way. But for an average person who doesn't know the technicalities, this word is what gives the best clue of what you can expect from the video, so in that sense it is fitting and appropriate to target the right audience. :)
This is so cool! I would like to believe that this is what the team pictured when they first arranged these songs!
Baldi and :Pringles.
this reminds me of how they kind of sound in the super mario super show
You gotta little spaghetti on your overalls @@kiwirocket64
@@kiwirocket64and that’s mama Luigi to you Mario!
I have rarely in my life experienced anything as flawlessly executed as this.
Wow! This sounds like it could have been a demo tape that Koji Kondo made around 1987/88, before implementing the music on the NES
Exactly what I was going for :)
@@aquamidi6775
You NAILED it!
@@aquamidi6775bravo 👏👏👏👌
I love it! It sounds like lost music from the Super Mario Bros Super Show cartoon. 😄
Honestly, this was pretty exceptional. Like I could imagine Koji Kondo originally envisioning it as this before adapting it for the NES. Obviously, we can't know how he initially envisioned it, but I think you get what I mean.
this sound quality is INSANE
This is truly awesome. It reminds me of those obscure arranged soundtrack albums Nintendo would release way back then that hardly anybody knows exist. This sounds exactly like one of those.
Wait please elaborate what 😮
yea hold on can you explain??
Wait, what obsure arrangements are you talking about? Never heard about that
Like the super smash bros remix songs
Duuude I completely forgot about those. That's some nostalgic memories
It's astounding how similar Iced Land sounds to the arrangement that the cartoon The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 used. Each piece you produced really does sound like if the original songs were upgraded, in a sense. Great job!
I thought that too. I always liked that arrangement of that piece on the SMB 3 series.
I HEAVLY appreciate the way these are remixed, usually when I look up remixes I just get heavy beat almost trap remix or things that just go waaaaay overboard. This is the type of remix I’m looking for when I search for them, not too far from the source material, and higher quality sounding while still keeping the identity. Excellent work.
This is absolutely incredible. I I know everyone else keeps saying it, but it really is just exactly what's in your mind when you're listening. When I heard the first song I was confused because it hadn't changed at all from my memory.
This sounds like what a Switch remake of Super Mario Bros 3 should sound like! Good stuff!
Sounds more like a clearer version of the Super Mario All-Stars version.
Now I want a switch remake! 😮
This is what I want more of when it comes to old VG OST covers…less power metal covers and more of an attempt to capture the intent of instrumentation from the original.
The modern rendition of the SMB 3 OST describes what Yoichi Kotabe's Mario illustrations sounds like.
Oh the desert zone sounds so good ! That stanky slap bass and “dhoooo” drum sound is so good.
just stumbled across this in my recommendations and like holy crap this is amazing.
Wow me too
A lot of people have said it, but I've always thought that 'remasters' of chiptune music often lose the spirit of the original music in favour of realistic instrumentation, adding too many channels etc etc. This, on the other hand, is a PERFECT example; using modern tools to create a version that fleshes things out and raises the quality whilst retaining the exact same 'sound'. Phenomenal work here, you should be proud
I think this vocalizes a lot of my disappointment I often feel with remasters of old OSTs.
100% agree. Hard finding a faithful remake of the original or Super Metroid's soundtracks because instead they're so bombastic and remove all the atmosphere
Another example I can think of is the remastered versions of certain Pokémon OSTs. They tend to keep the same sounds, but also feel like they are trying to hard to be a “new and improved” version of it meanwhile the original is already great and doesn’t need to change
Agreed. Have you checked out Jammin' Sams restoration of the donkey kong country trilogy soundtracks? I guess those are a bit beyond chip tunes already but he actually tracked down all the original synths used but without the compression and ran them through the games programing and it basically gives you the same soundtrack if it hadn't been made with the snes compression.
And on that note if you can find a disc or rip of the original Super Mario 64 soundtrack CD it's all rendered before compression as well. I think the version on the bonus feature soundtrack has it as well too, though they did not patch it into the actual game. Too much work I guess. ..
Incidentally, I think the remasters of this game made by the original composer for actually make it justice.
If you told me this was the arranged soundtrack from DiC's _The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3,_ I would believe you. It's quite good!
If this wasn't unofficial I wouldn't be able to tell, amazing
The consistent mario artstyle/branding started in mb3 actually being used in NA may very well be a big part of his continued popularity. For whatever reason NA boxart did not care too much about recognizable characters for quite a while. This singular image of mario has been imprinted on my brain for more than 2 decades. Its incredibly clean and they did it when not a lot of other people were doing it (in NA at least)
The underground theme from SMB3 has always been one of my favorite video game tracks. Absolutely nailed it here.
Reading the title and hearing this is EXACTLY why I love SMB3, You've done excellent work and execution to pump this ost full of new life!
This was so good that I've watched the whole thing!
This truly sounds like an orignal remaster. Would love to play SMB3 with this soundtrack!
You did a wonderful job. Wish every publisher would respect their audience so far as to recreate the things we loved, not new, not "improved", just better and the same.
You did it to perfection and wish you the best for everything you want to achieve in life.
You let my heart be a kid again.
im so cold
Nah I don't need the ost like this.good remix tgi
idk man, if we just kept getting the same, gaming would be pretty boring. And Nintendo is honestly one of the only major publishing and developing studios who understands that
I'm so glad I got recommended this, this is absolutely sick and sounds like what the original OST did to me as a kid.
Bro just dropped the best remaster of all time
I listen to a LOT of remixes, remakes, and remasters of NES and SNES soundtracks, so to be blown away by this is really something.
2:03 that is just excellent! The Reggae feel of it is immaculate
Fun Fact: Petey Pharaoh has Reggae inspired music as his theme in "Super Mario Striker"
This world may have inspired that sound for him later on..
Edited: Mistakenly called the World a level.. My apologies..
2:53, I thought no one but me imagined it like this.
All it needs is some snapping, jazz bass, and a saxophone.
You get the Pink Panther as a result.
I don't know how else one would instrumentate it, unless you do a Paper Mario 64 "Club 64"-style arrangement.
Sounds like that one cutscene track from Sonic Adventure 2
Yeah this is pretty much the version from Fortune Street which gives off that jazz vibe
@@RyanSwiney It already is on NES which is the point.
@@AaronVaqueiro if you’re talking about the original Fortune Street I meant the version on Wii when you trade stocks
This is what I think the demo tapes would sound like. This is amazing!
2:54 this sounds EXACTLY like something out of sunshine
This sounds just like it was an OST to some unreleased Mario cartoon or movie or something! Amazing!
There was a super Mario Bros 3 cartoon
It sounds exactly like the cartoon
This just became my preferred version of the Mario 3 soundtrack.
This is perfect (with a very slight knock on Airship, even if I know the desync is intentional).
You're like an angel from the mushroom kingdom sir
Thanks for making this and also the ghost and goblins that is one game that doesn't get any love
Everything about this feels amazing, it's like being able to listen to these songs for the first time again.
Though it would probably be a good thing to look what synths and samples you use
i like how you seemingly used the same drum sample they actually put in the game
also is that the same string sample used in a link to the past ( i swear ive heard it in other places too, not just video games, so it must have been prevalent or something )
Bro...
I don't know how to describe what joy my ears just listened to!
My childhood is flooding back to me again
Thank you man
finally one pipe maze remix that sounds good
A time machine back to 80's. Thx bro.
This is something I've always wanted done. I think you basically captured the vibe Kondo was aiming for. I love what you did with the pipe world theme.
It's like as if they had made a Gamecube version of the game! This is so awesome!
I need a 10 hour version of this warp zone 3:59 it's so soothing
I'm a music producer and even one wrong note in covers/remakes bugs me lol, but you nailed every damn note in every song and I love it! Your attention to detail and commitment to recreating such flawless remakes of these songs is unparalleled thus far! Well done 👏👏👏 Subbed!
software extract notes from ROM of the game and conver it to refular midi. Then assign new sound to midi tracia in your DAW. Thats how all notes and signature are in point without any effort.
@@leonordeborbon2121 oh.. well no longer impressed then 😕
@@RandomBros88 Almost every song in this was done by transcribing the notes by ear, listening to individual tracks in NSFPlay. This is how the vast majority of my NES remasters/arrangements are done. NSF2MIDI rips are actually quite cumbersome to use, as they handle BPM in a strange way that makes manual note adjustment difficult, often interpret individual notes with ugly pitch-bends that have to be manually fixed, and can't fully rip DPCM percussion (or noise channels usually). I did rip the MIDI for Airship so it'd have the same off-kilter percussion pattern as the original, and I likely ripped some/most of the tiny fanfares. That's about it though.
This is 11/10 work. Absolutely incredible, the quality of it is astounding.
I genuinely think you could not have perfected the sound of each track more than you have here. Awesome.
This remaster sounded so correct I genuinely forgot the original soundtrack didn't use samples for all the instruments
Crazy solid production!
Super Mario Bros 3 and Synths, definitely the perfect 80s combination.
My favorites are the sea world and the ice world, the synthesizers definitely sound perfect and add a special touch (the first one sounds like something out of some Vaporwave composition)
By the way, some tracks sound a lot like improved versions of the Super Mario Advance 4 soundtrack, and I really like that.
I almost don't hear a difference from what my imagination filled in, that's how spot-on these are. You've clearly captured the original vision.
yes i daftly know what you mean
This is not the original vision. The 8 bit OG is much better. But this is a nice remix
@@troywright359 Yeah, because you know exactly what koji kondo's orginal vision is, right...?
I hear a difference idk maybe you just have a skill issue or smth
@@troywright359I don’t know what you’re on about this version is way better than the original
I want this on vinyl... like right now!
I found you 😅
Blessed be The Algorithm that served me this truly magical work of art, great work!!!
That Athletic theme tho...
🔥
this game is one of my earliest memories, the ost is imprinted on my brain lol
This really good, amazing job! 👍
I love the bass in big island
these are so awesome..you truly got that feel of super mario bros. 3!
Wow these are amazing. The string section in the credits theme has been stuck in my head for a while and I couldn't figure out where it was from. Mario's old end themes are so good.
They really are. SM64 in particular is a favorite.
This is amazing! I love how Battle With Bowser sounds like a Mega Man X2 song. Great work!
My #1 favorite video game of all time, so naturally, I loved this.
Honestly, this feels like something straight outta the Super Show, and I love it.
Oh my god you're so right
I was thinking The Adventures of Super Mario Bros 3 lol
@@Nikowo1610 niko oneshot based
I was going to comment the same thing! This feels like it’s a pure rip from an episode of SS!
Probably because Super Show and ASMB3 both took very similar approaches to remastering the games' soundtracks, using higher-fidelity synths that the NES simply Is Not Capable Of.
I love it when the algorithm gives me amazing things like this.
Good music stands the test of time regardless of instrument and this really does sound like the originals if they were live somehow but at the same time still in game. I feel 7 again.
As someone who grew up on Super Mario Bros. 3, this is perfect. You did an amazing job! ❤
Put me in a good mood. Good job!
Love your rendition of Sea Side so much!
The music of this game is good. The gameplay is godlike.
this is so faithful oh my goodness gracious
Love the king’s room song, gave me paper Mario vibes when you speak with the star spirits
this feels like what'd be made if mario 3 got a pc port in the mid 90s with all stars graphics and cd quality audio
It sounds like if Super Mario Bros. 3 was released on PC à la Sonic & Knuckles Collection. Very impressive
This is how you use "à la" but it's spelled "à la" not "a lá"
@@vascosanchez oh, my bad
This is truly amazing. It's so authentic and nostalgic
If Nintendo ever were to make a modern-day, remastered version of SMB3, this is EXACTLY what I would want the soundtrack to sound like.
Well, if they did it right now it would be BIG BAND and JAZZ because FUCK IT
nuh-uh i would rather listen to SMAS version
either that or just straight-up lift music@@n0vi
@@n0viGood.
@@learcticus3879The vocals in Wonder were literally only in like 2 songs
I like to imagine these were the compositions first, then they were created in 8-bit from these
This feels like a remaster of the SNES/GBA ost, amazing work!
Beautiful...
INSTANT sub! OMFGoodness this is absolutely fantastic! It keeps the very essence of the original 8 bit sound, but brings it to life in such a near indescribably great way. Take a bow, you've rewritten Mario musical history in my ears!
This is really cool, it captures the feel of the original songs perfectly.
given the numbers this video is hitting, i sure hope you have monetization turned on. you deserve the imbursement, because this is excellent work! you've captured the spirit of essence of Mario Bros. 3 perfectly! definitely a soundtrack remaster I will keep coming back to. :)
This sounds like official covers that would be used for the Super Mario Bros Super show. It fits the style of around the time that show came out.
God, that Giant Land theme is so good.
Great job on this project. I really enjoyed Castle of Koopa and Bowser Battle. They all turned out well! It was a strange sense of nostalgia.
Oh boy, I sure remember playing Super Mario Bros. 3 for the Windows 95 with this masterpiece of a soundtrack, the times, man.
@@CapitalQhe isn’t being literal lmao, he’s making a joke. This is what it would sound like if Mario 3 came out on windows 95.
after a few months of the algorithm giving me stuff like "Nirvanas Nevermind in the Mario 64 sound font" I originally thought it was giving me this video as a twist on that meme
Regardless this is a fantastic remaster, you should be proud of your work
Amazing. Really stands out amongst a sea of horrendously overproduced remixes. Great job. Now who is going to be the legend to set up a way to play the original game with this ost?
Very very good
Windowlicker 64 was pretty great. Your stuff is a serious cut above the sea of SM64 soundfont MIDIslaps.
I didn’t know I needed to hear this
You needed to hear this
You have no idea how much I love this. This is amazing!
This is some genius work. Reminds me a lot to Anime tracks from the 80s
I love these remasters, I feel like if there was a modern port of the all-stars versions of the games and they were to remaster the music, it would sound something like this. I would love to see the custom Mario Maker arrangements for SMB1 and SMB3 remastered like this as well!
Dude, This sounds fantastic! My favorites are the Pipe Maze, Swimming and Music Box themes. Keep up the good work!
Wow, absolutely hit the nail on the head using the DX7 bass for desert hill. Feels like that's exactly how it was intended to sound. Same with the (I think) D-50 for the bass on the underground theme.
This is really great! It feels like such a natural expansion on the originals.
man this is absolutely awesome! congratulations!!!
this is great stuff, some of those instruments sound like the ones in TSQUARE songs
Jez I wonder why considering Koji was a fan of them.
The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 vibes! Great work on this remastered soundtrack! I particularly love the Big Island, The Sky, Overworld, Underground, Hammer Bros. Battle, and Bowser Battle themes.
Excellent work. This is probably how Koji imagined this soundtrack. I still prefer the original sound of the cartridge, but only for nostalgia.
Excellent work
This sounds absolutely amazing! You should definitely do Super Mario World eventually. Would it technically still be 80's synths since the game came out in '91?
in japan it came out in 1990
@@Frying1Pans True
The game was in development in '89 too. Granted the samples probably had changed by the time the game came out, but there's still a chance it's the same as in 1989.
I did remaster Super Mario World, with (almost entirely) the originally used synths and samples. The playlist is on my channel.
@@aquamidi6775 Right, I need to go back to that playlist because it's so good 🎧
If Super Mario All Stars had never happened, this could be the perfect reimagination of these classic SMB3 tunes!!
