Aquatic Ambience from donkey kong country is nostalgia overload!!! One of the best of all time!!!! 😀

[@coochmunster3375]

it makes the hairs on my arms stand up

[@GustavoOliveira-fy6ts]

@@coochmunster3375 Same!

[@gamerex9378]

Man Demon's Crest was so damn good.

[@DanielRivera-on5qh]

What's your favorite thing about it?

[@artemi7]

Demon's Crest was a really underrated game.

[@LilHaseProductions]

>open up youtube 'nintendo water music' mix >first song is aquatic ambience of course >blows my brains out

[@JimboHammy]

I come back to this mix all the time. It's such a good theme! Thanks, SNES drunk! Love you, bud.

[@16bitbrit]

Awesome idea for a video - I will now proceed to chilling out to some classic tunes.

[@Tubaka01]

Oh, man. Why did you want to go and deliberately leave out MY favorite, whatever it was? Cool playlist, anyway, though.

[@rmfjedimaster7962]

Absolutely gorgeous music!

[@VFomalhaut]

beautiful tunes, thanks for putting them together and sharing it!

[@GottesPlan1]

Donkey Kong ❤️

[@CarterJ9]

Wow, the FF Mystic Quest song is actually just a damn good song. Love the way you fade it in too, with the big synth cymbal rash.

[@artemi7]

Mystic Quest had a FANTASTIC soundtrack. A lot of the songs are real gems.

[@CarterJ9]

@@artemi7 as I have found out! I saved the entire soundtrack haha

[@alfonzoaranda8985]

Las canciones de mystic quest me recuerdan demasiado a las canciones de amor de la décadas de los 80s y 90s

[@rdrouynriv]

Mystic quest was my introduction to Final fantasy along with FF2 US. An extremely underrated game that has amazing music.

[@jhonviel7381]

You continue to spoil us. I can not get these tunes out of my head!

[@CyrusAnnihilator]

This Undersae Palace from Chrono Trigger has very little water-relation, but still a great theme. Cool selection!

[@SNESdrunk]

+Cyrus Annihilator ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@Violathewitch]

im just chilling out and suddenly the chrono trigger track barges in with its intense theme

[@jeremybarnett3945]

Say what you will about Ocean’s games, but they did a great job when it came to the soundtracks for their games.

[@adammackanin1109]

So glad you got Mystic Quest on here.

[@yopiff]

There is no other way to start this video! Aquatic Ambience is fucking amazing!

[@MarMaxGaming]

Excellent. I see you've gone from 10k to almost 30k subs in several months, way to go! I watch every new episode as I wind down for bed 👍

[@Butterforyourrolls]

I disagree with the choices!! No, sorry, you told me I could do it and got drunk with power. I love these all, thanks.

[@arolahn]

Oooh that Mystic Ark tune starts out really nice… would have loved to see Super Castlevania IV’s tune from the caves (with the dripping water).

[@sofachillreview2135]

Just knew Donkey Kong would be there . Love that song and the rest of the music through the series

[@agentn8064]

Maridia , Dk country and DK country 2 water levels come to mind as one i love

[@secretysecret1551]

Seriously, what a brilliant idea! A whole video of related to video game water music...which tends to be consistently be amazing. How about for the next round you have a list of good, all-around atmospheric music. Then you can add the Pilotwings 64 hanglider song and Klonoa's final stage song (I know, both aren't SNES...but still amazing)

[@fabimawn]

Wagyan Paradise - Deep sea is my most favourite water song by miles!

[@arminius1453]

These thematic playlists are really convenient for work and study. Snesdrunk, you do god's work my dude.

[@ryanbohl5867]

This is great to listen to while doing school work. Thanks for compiling these.

[@trisonicbrandtech]

Sky Blue - Lair of Kharyon is phenomenal as well.

[@Postumeartist]

Man some of the old snes cover art was off the hook. Every time I see old breath of fire cover art, I laugh hysterically.

[@Giggles_iJest]

Start with the best one, huh Bold

[@bennettcushenan1209]

Dude your content is good dont let anyone tell you different👍

[@galiasvirtual4078]

Oh man, my favorite music: W A T E R but seriously, this is amazing to listen, and some of these themes are really impresive for the SNES. *--*

[@henrikmak]

Thanks from BRAZIL 👍👏👌⭐

[@SNESdrunk]

Cheers

[@Nelward64]

anyone who doesn't like aquatic ambience doesn't like pizza. and doesn't like life. I think thats my favorite all time video game track. Yes, very unoriginal, but its so infuriatingly perfect for the setting.

[@blackenedwritings]

I'm not even into the DKC games that much but they did have some of the best music of any system.

[@aaronbarber6238]

You got all my favorites! :P

[@samuelallen2831]

8:23 11:15 13:38 15:40 19:12 21:23 23:04 25:33 28:02 30:08 33:17 34:29 36:12 Updated time stamps for everything past the Chrono Trigger track. I was gonna ask you to do it SNES Drunk but I thought, fuck it he’s got better things to do and right now I don’t.

[@joshualeal4079]

I was surprised not to find the Ocean of Origin theme from E.V.O. here (kzbin.info/www/bejne/kJbLe2OId5iogtk). It's definitely my favorite.

[@thevi0lat0r]

+Joshua Leal I agree. An oft-overlooked great soundtrack in general.

[@metaldragon416]

Super bonk underwater is like train underwater

[@XTRABIG]

The Winner is.... AXELAY!!

[@trisonicbrandtech]

Not really a water level, but Island of Ruins sound track from Ardy Lightfoot has one of the most ridiculously calming rhythms I've heard, and sounds like it would fit in with a track from Chrono Trigger. Actually, Ardy Lightfoot in general deserves more recognition, it's one of the least documented SNES games on youtube sadly.

[@orinanime]

Track 18 is just a hours long compilation of every Ecco the Dolphin video game soundtrack LOL

[@orchNEStra]

Never too late to add Bubble Crab's theme from X2... just saying.

[@ThewOrldIssqUare]

Nice stuff. It's true, water themes have a special quality about them regardless of the game. I will say I'm surprised to see no Serpent Trench here, it's a big favorite of mine. FF5 had a good water theme, too. I would also have included a Kirby Super Star track. :) Not complaining, though. Thanks for the playlist. All very good.

[@siskavard]

aquatic ambulance

[@Georghiou2D]

this is basically the same tracks as the snes relaxing compilations

[@willisstryker2467]

Definitely would have added music from the water levels in both ActRaiser 1 and 2, but awesome selections nonetheless 👍🏾

[@the555deal1]

Yo! If you haven't heard of Super Castlevania 4's "The Waterfall" (or for that matter, the entire soundtrack), you should listen to it -- especially try playing the stage the song appears in. You'll love it!

[@philippediego]

[@luter7568]

2024 Спасибо тебе, друг.

[@Darwingreen5]

Still have a hard time thinking E.V.O or Illusion of Gaia didn't make this list.

[@chrisrj9871]

Think you can do the other 3 elements? Fire, Air, Earth? (with Breath of Fire in the fire category, natch?)

[@cameronwilliamloomis]

What was the first 23 seconds? It transitioned beautifully. What an intro!

[@maghrebforever2012]

Breath of Fire 1 is a not so? hidden gem

[@maxzandarskix]

great

[@peterj.anchorg.2105]

Ohh I thought the Skyblazer one would make it on the list =[ Great, you put the one from Demon's Crest..! (even thou you are not such a fan of the game) =P

[@catherines2315]

is it just me or is this a bit messed up? Undersea Palace only plays for a few seconds before skipping to the next track, and the timestamps after that go to the end of each track instead of the beginning... Other than that it's pretty good, lots of my favorites mixed in with neat music i haven't heard before :)

[@MR-kw4oh]

Just you buddy

[@rocko7711]

❤️👾🎮🕹️❤️

[@xDTHECHEMISTx]

Donkey country number 1. Super adventure island very close 2nd and for me castlevania X stage 5 I think I was

[@YukiSenmatsu]

Under Water from Phalanx would've been great on this list

[@Gator159]

Star Fox SNES has a water level??

[@DoomRater]

No Drakkhen or Dragon View, but solid DKC shows up so can't really complain.

[@craiggamache2211]

Music... the only good thing about water levels.

[@lisawarner4858]

Sweet video! n.n lmao

[@johannengelhardt5885]

Be carefull you don‘t create another internet checkpoint

[@Whelkman]

Waterworld ironically missing.

[@SNESdrunk]

Heh, didn't know how good the music was in that game until much later

[@ayuloveappears]

Ahh what, no Super Black Bass?! j/k.. I thought for sure I'd see Super Adventure Island's Blue Blue Moon on the list, though.

[@estrum1647]

so... no waterworld?

[@marcushale1931]

Actraiser 2 water level.

[@edwardgaines6561]

No MegaMan VII or MegaMan X themes? 😮

[@user-oy7gz5bf2h]

Couldn't listen to the first one 'cause of the feels.

[@user-wy4wj3kv9c]

33:20

[@chilldedede]

How the fuck did you manage to forget super metroid but then add ffmq?

[@dionysus122]

I can't believe you deliberately left out MY favorite water track, whatever it was, so I'll have to deal with these. Geez. So inconsiderate of YOU! Edit: I only make this comments because I find the gall of some people so ridiculous. +SNES drunk- Do people really complain to you about your selections?

[@SNESdrunk]

+TightManlyPants All the time, but that's the nature of the internet

[@DhinCardoso]

"that's the nature of the internet" [2]

[@heathmcrigsby]

Uncharted Waters: New Horizons had some awesome music as well. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZqcdpuwgM-NidU

[@Hotsaucedeluxe]

How about the Serpent Trench from FF6? kzbin.info/www/bejne/pamQq3SkfLqZkJY

Händels watermusic is a joke compared to this
