I'm telling my children that this is country music.

I've only played the games a handful of times, but have listened to the soundtracks thousands of times. This music sticks with you.

This is one of those cases of technical limitation leading to the creation of something very special. There's just nothing quite like the DKC SNES soundtracks.

This game holds a special place in my heart. I used to play it with my aunt as a child, she loved the Aquatic Ambience music. We recorded it from the tv onto tape and then later in life I burned it on disc for her.
When she died, that game and song take me back to beloved memories. Brilliant, really.

Donkey Kong music is so iconic. Going back and listening to the tracks now takes me back

As soon as you mentioned having two favorite tracks in DKC 2, my first thought was, "Is it Stickerbrush Symphony and Forest Interlude?" It's really cool to see someone appreciate Forest Interlude as much as I do. That frothy synth and the rising background hum creates a vibe like no other. I think the soundtrack in DKC 2 is really a testament to how well a good soundtrack can complement a game and make it even more enjoyable than just its core gameplay.

This is one of the most beautiful games ever made under every single aspect.

david wise is a genius, thanks for spreading the love for a great composer

It's odd that, when the top 16-bit soundtracks are named, the DKC series isn't instantly named the #1 example. Even among the Final Fantasies, Chronotriggers, and Streets of Rages, there's nothing quite as rich, bold, soothing, and (most importantly) eclectic as Rare's trilogy of masterpieces (especially the first two).

When the title says that the music changed your life - I literally resonate with that on so many levels.
I have always loved the music and now I'm learning to compose music

Did you know that the basslines in DKC3 were actually so deep that when Evelyn was converting the ost from the SNES to the GBA the speakers of the development GBA she was holding spontaneously combusted. After that, David Wise had to step in & recompose the entire soundtrack from scratch.

I remember as a kid, pausing the game before finishing levels because I didn't want the track to end. You nailed the way this music in particular made/makes me feel. Awesome video!

I literally pumped my fist and audibly shouted "YES" when you said Forest Interlude is your favourite from DKC2, that might legitimately be my favourite VGM of all time too, it's technically impressive in it's layering, super emotional while also heavily ambient, it has basically all of David's strengths rolled up into one so well.

I always cite Donkey Kong Country, particularly David Wise, for introducing me to my love of atmospheric music. Not only do these compositions encapsulate incredibly memorable melodies, but they also evoke such depth in conveying atmosphere; they really breathe life into areas of the game. If you had someone listen to the tracks and ask them to guess where each might take place, I don't think there would be a single track that would be guessed incorrectly. They truly are THAT good at setting the mood and complementing the area. And even with all my praise, we all know this is just scratching the surface.
As someone who's been looking to get back into her studies of music theory, I cannot thank you enough for this wonderful video. I'll be coming back to view it again and again, that's for certain!!

Growing up with the SNES in the 90's was maybe one of the greatest times to be alive as a kid in the entire history of human kind. The feelings and memories these soundtracks evoke in me are truly priceless.

The work of David Wise is timeless, brilliant, and wonderful, the steady bounce, the rhythm, the feel, as well as these incredibly calming and soft pieces. Eveline did good work but she couldn't quite get the same bounce and layering. I don't know if I'd call DKC the straight best video game music of all time, there's just so much good out there and timeless, from Zelda's wonderfully enjoyable thematic songs to Halo's iconic chorus to the absolute master piece of the DKC trilogy, but it is at the very least one of the absolute greatest works. I own a number of CDs, spent more than I'd be willing to admit on collecting original physical media. I regularly sleep to a combination of calming tracks from Mario Galaxy, DKC Trilogy + Returns & Tropical Freeze, and Zelda music. DKC 2 definitely holds a top billing in the best soundtracks ever created regardless.
Jib Jig is definitely underappreciated, it's a top favorite beneath Forest Interlude and Stickerbush Symphony with the flapping of the flags, ah it's such a clever and well-done blend of atmosphere sounds into music.
Video games are such wonderful art forms that have so much to give.
I wasn't aware of the David Wise DKC 3 port music. I'll absolutely listen to that.

You nearly brought me to tears while revisiting the music of DKC. Especially DKC2. I was only in kindergarten and going into first grade when I was playing it, Yoshi's Island and a handful of other games on the SNES back in the early to mid 90's. I became entranced with the music of these games, but especially DKC2's. I loved just about every track, but Mining Melancholy hit me harder than any other. And only when I got a year or two older and finally managed to reach Bramble Blast did Stickerbush Symphony become one of my all time favorites as well. Maybe it's because I was playing the level or thinking of the game around the time, but I always, ALWAYS get flooded with pleasant memories of mid to late Autumn, especially late October and all of November (which it is now as I write this; go figure.) Being that young and excited to play in leaves with my family, prepare for Halloween with getting pumpkins, decorating the house, and eagerly anticipating trick-or-treating, and awaiting the joy of Christmas all November long. Without this getting longer than it is, Stickerbush Symphony makes me 5 years old again and fills me with warm Autumn childhood feelings. And somehow, without me fully understanding why, it also evokes fondness for my grandparents. I miss them all so very much, even now that I'm in my 30's. May they all rest in peace.
Thank you for this wonderful video about an amazing collection of games and their sublime music. You're truly spot on about the incredible power of music that many of us, myself included, take for granted all too often. David Wise, among many others I admire (Koji Kondo, Junichi Masuda, Stewart Copeland, Grant Kirkhope, etc.) have blessed us with an amazing experience that is simply irreplaceable and cannot be easily replicated. Thank you to all who are involved with these incredible games we love, and for the music that moves our souls.

The DK music is something I only really started appreciating the last year or 2. The depth of the music is surprising considering it's SNES and like you said it just sparks something on an emotional level.

Forest Interlude is my favorite song of all gaming and I am so happy to not be alone in feeling this! Hits me right in the heart every time from when I was a teen to even now as an adult. Great video! Oh and subscribed! :)
