4:32 This is literally why I love this song

[@iris1568]

Same, it's such a satisfying sound and gives such a great depth to the whole piece

[@seankkg]

I've been lying in bed listening to this with my eyes closed and when it kicks in at 5:20 I legitimately almost started crying.

[@CravensBen]

DSP 2 is the most iconic bass synth in VGM history.

[@SinisterSwiss]

Man DSP 2 is putting in some major work in the feels department

[@futabamajima]

A great deconstruction, although the title of the song is actually Stickerbush Symphony. This is a common mistake, but I'll just let you know regardless edit: i know this sounds pedantic as hell, im leaving it up just for the comments

[@alltreeofyall645]

No one cares

[@retroreina400]

Well I thought it was interesting

[@art4truth]

Probably because the name Stickerbrush Symphony rolls off the tongue better than Stickerbush Symphony.

Unironically the best bass line I've heard

[@chaosemerald7654]

me too

[@Kamoto24]

Im fascinated by how many beats were used to compose this 16-bits masterpiece. Its really magic

[@krushingbro6620]

wow dsp 2 and dsp4 together soloed sound menacing af yet the whole context of the song is so laid back and chill, amazing song.

[@pedrogomezid]

it works because it results in dissonance and makes it sound sad :3

[@chrisrockett5897]

This sounds like the type of music a detective from the future would listen to while smoking a cigarette in the rain beside an alley.

[@Outer-Heaven_Supercomputer]

strangely specific

[@xXBlueSheepXx]

I love it every time the bass goes "DO-do-DO-do"

[@taal223]

I've been addicted to these videos lately. Hearing the song assemble itself lets me enjoy every piece of it.

[@JTCurtisMusic]

So glad to see this masterpiece deconstructed. Those first three layers almost sound like a classic mellotron (think The Beatles STRAWBERRY FIELDS). Thanks for the upload.

[@SurprisedPikachu247]

I just want give david wise a hug and tell him these themes were a big part of my childhood. Fucking crying rn man.

[@commetsftw]

That chord progression and bass is what really sells this song. It makes gives it a lot of heavy impacting melochonic vibes and key changes that a lot of romantic post metalcore songs have.

[@deebznutz100]

Am I tripping or is the bass echo missing?

[@carpathia808]

It's missing because the sound is deliberately played out of phase, to sound like it's behind you, but that has the downside of messing with the sound waves so they don't appear in the software I use

[@deebznutz100]

I figured out my issue with the bass echo. I'm listening on my phone and it only has one speaker. I listened to it later in stereo and the echo is present.

[@jtg55]

A beautiful song. Could've worked as a Settings theme for the SNES too, lol

[@EXT4NT]

You have no idea of how much I've been waiting for you to upload this, thank you so so so so much

[@treyyates]

I come back to this video so often

[@FacetCute]

This song literally feels etherial.

[@Dayserking]

Ethereal* And yes, you’re right.

[@VT8104]

@@Dayserking minor spelling mistake

[@mob8502]

Ooo that's a good word, gonna be using it from now on

[@Formula_Zero_EX]

Ethereal is a word I didn’t expect but now needed in my entire life.

[@ChronoSquare]

Meant to be the underwater equivalent of DKC 1 's aquatic ambience, but not in water as that was already covered enough. Something like that.

[@TheCookiePup]

4:33 at the last note of each phrase, DSP 2 doesn't look like it's playing anything, but I can definitely hear a note there, just wider. Are we seeing the L+R result? If so, maybe both the left and right channels perfectly cancel out if played in mono for that note each phrase.

[@fidodoghero1498]

That is actually very true. When I tried listening in mono audio(not through the SNES hardware), the L+R effect cancelled out, which at first was odd to me, but now that you mention it, I’m very surprised.

[@Arkonu]

“Let’s all work together and do our part! We might sound a bit off now, but when we work together, it’s gonna sound great! Trust me!” -- And then that sweet sweet payoff…

[@thrillhouse4151]

3:35, this part always reminds me of The Cure for some reason.

[@awesomejacketdude]

Beautiful 😭

[@koda1778]

If I'm like 20 hours late, why is this under 1K views, and why do you not have more subs for this content? Anyway, love this song, and I love the remix they made for the Smash series.

[@crastipeter]

DOING THE LORD'S WORK HERE

[@wigwagstudios2474]

this does NOT sound like a SNES song, or a song for a Donkey Kong game even! You could tell me that this was a Windows demo soundtrack for an obscure older version and I'd probably believe you!

[@TekMan05]

It's crazy how ethereal this track is where all the sounds are organic and heavenly sounding but then DSP2 kicks in as the only sound that's obviously synth sounding but is like the glue to the track and just meshes so well. It's also why I prefer covers that include that sound over ones that don't and my only gripe about the SSB version.

[@limelad37]

Y'boy be pumping these out and quick! We appreciate it!

[@art4truth]

Wikipedia says SNES has 8 sound channels. This song uses 8 channels so how'd they do the sound effects that I know were in the levels that used this music track? Is there a 0 channel or something?

[@ssabmud6990]

They just cut out the music in one sound channel to play the sound effect. You can hear this occasionally if you listen real close

[@art4truth]

@@ssabmud6990 Is it one that's staggered with an identical track to produce an echo effect? Maybe that wouldn't be as noticeable as cutting other tracks.

[@ssabmud6990]

@@art4truth I think so, yes

[@SoulStoneSeeker]

this. i love this.

[@GyreArts]

Seeing how complex the synth lineup actually is, is crazy to me bruh

[@jeremyknight9980]

4:12I remember pausing the game sometimes because it would mess with the music frequency trying to hear this sound clearly. what instrument is that?

[@Breadward_MacGluten]

Jeremy Knight kinda just sounds like a cheap theremin to me, or like a weirdly contorted violin sound?

[@cadencebirdsong]

So how do the bass and other instruments get that filtering envelope sound???

[@SendyTheEndless]

It's multiple samples of a saw wave with varying cutoffs and resonance, resequenced.

[@ChrisGaldamez]

[@requiem165]

I hate how the thumbnail says stickerbrush and the title says stickerbush

[@mob8502]

Is there a way for me to extract certain sounds to sample and make beats

[@TekMan05]

What's the name of the pulsing sound at 3:15?(DSP 2)

[@dewgonquazar9978]

It’s a sawtooth with a low-pass filter. There’s 11 distinct samples of different levels of low-pass.

[@tomsmart7908]

The only problem is that Microsoft has Rare
