“this guy fucking rocks at Mario!”

[@SkyanUltra]

in this video, we can see a player so stupendously skilled at Mario, that he constantly styles on the level multiple times a second. despite the obviously precarious platforms, he rocks so hard at the game that he just can’t stop styling like a badass. it’s through pure, unadulterated skill that he easily sends our mustachioed friend straight towards the end of the level in record time. subscribe if you think this absolute beast of a player should be awarded and praised for their incredible gameplay.

[@Diamond_Aura]

A lot of Mario World Castles have obstacles that force you to wait or at least take it slow. This theme sounds like the type of castle where you’re meant to move as quickly as possible, either due to low time limit, or obstacles that will kill you if go too slow. In other words, Shmoovement Castle

Kaizo Castle

[@takerboi365]

honestly I like that idea - a castle designed to still be a good bit difficult, but able to be sped through by a skilled enough player like a dkc level. I could imagine the Cape Feather being the powerup of choice, letting those who have enough of a grasp on it glide through the level while still dealing with controlling it properly and managing the level hazards themselves. also, going off of mario world bosses, any of the koopalings that just casually walk up walls (I think Ludwig and Roy do that, maybe also Morton) seem like the best fits outside of king koopa himself.

[@swagsleepy]

i know nothing about music theory but that chord progression at 0:25 is so warm it made me go listen to all your other smw songs and i absolutely love your style now i'm excited to see what you have in store next!!!

[@CoolMintMC]

I’ve heard it be referred to as the “anime chord progression”; if you look that up, you should be able to find more information about it. I genuinely love it so much, so I hope you can find more like it as well.

[@Ryan91487]

​@@CoolMintMC Term is called the Royal Road chord progression.

You dont need to know anything about music theory to enjoy or make music

[@misterjersey5460]

GET UP AND SLAM AND WELCOME TO THE JAM

[@willjace789]

This theme is so banging, I would feel so sorry to bust in on Bowser and his crew celebrating their victory in a Death Battle episode while listening to this theme.

[@dariusbrown7870]

Mario and his friends all up in his castle.

[@Grassinio]

This track has got that 70's funk, that soul, that R&B jazz train that blues artists seek. It's truly unique and gives homage to the founding fathers of vintage genres. Well done, RRthiel. Also I get a bit of Shovel Knight Dig vibes, just because of how this seamlessly blends action with disco funk.

[@A_CD_By_Thomas]

I could definitely go for more Bowser-themed EDM after this - honestly feels like it really embodies the "Coney Island Disco Palace" feel of Bowser's Castle in SMW, it's menacingly funky. Definitely can't wait to hear all these tracks come together!

[@inigo-z7q]

The John Tay remix on this one gonna go INSANE

[@Yume2kki]

i think it takes some inspiration from john tay's fortress or it might just be me lol

[@tytanium654]

Definitely.

[@mistorbear]

@@Yume2kki i can hear the resemblance though it might just be because of the smw soundbank being used in both songs

[@Lumiesfinetoo]

Tay and Thiel are just a peak generating duet

[@tytanium654]

@Lumiesfinetoo you ever make something, then look at someone else's work and it blows yours outta the water? That's how i feel with Tay. They do stuff with the YM2612 I can only dream of. Though in time I'll get there.

Love that Castlevania-esque progression at 1:18

[@YamashitaTsubasa]

Holy shit that's what it is

[@dariusbrown7870]

This REALLY makes me think about how the normal SMW castle theme sets the pace for the castle. This makes me appreciate the normal’s slower tone.

[@yoshisreal]

from a cool DOOM-sounding song to an absolute fire party song

[@toekneemart5597]

This is one of those times where the theme isn't your enemies. It's yours!

[@nabbitgohome9672]

I like how Mario looks here he looks like he’s ready to throw hands or standing while grooving with this castles music beat or ready to face whoever is the boss with anticipation.

[@Fatih_M177]

The feelings that i have for these tracks is so hard to describe. It's like "Fake Nostalgia" has now become real, cause this is how SMW music felt in my mind, not what it actually sounded (Not saying that the OG is bad of course, what I'm trying to say is that i remember it "better")

[@Burgorton]

I wanna say this blends perfectly with Mario Wonder’s castle levels

[@RealKymil]

Fire usually brings Fire but this time it's straight up Lava with a burning groove. Keep it cooking

[@jakedastenjako]

[@Confusioniskey]

Now sir, I say I say that is the stuff right there. The stuff you sir indeed you have it.

I _will_ be playing this romhack when it releases (unless it already has) thank you dingaling kid for making me discover these bangers

[@ShookieShook]

It's astounding that despite feeling more "intense," it still fits perfectly with all of the other songs lmao.

[@MacheTheFerret]

this straightup sounds like a SNES-ified anime OP, amazing

[@Hadragoon]

This song perfectly shows how u the player are nearing the end with a mix of triumphant music but yet intenseness foreshadowing the challenges you’ve still yet to face including the final battle TLDR: another banger from rrthiel
