Crystal caves music

[@jennyramirez2180]

this song reminds me about my famliy and its me cry when i was small i was lost in the snow it took me forever to find my famliy.i have a ipod and i play that song in the snow its me cry so hard because my famliy and that day too :'(

[@BlazeInferno360]

Ah!!! I still have my N64. On top of that. I have DK 64, Banjo-Kazooie, Mario 64, Star Fox 64, etc. To make it even better, I still play Goldeneye 64 with my brother and my friend that I grew up with. These are treasures that I will keep for a very long time.

[@JORDANBAUMER]

awwh man i remember growing this goldeneye and earthworm jim 3D was all i played wen i was old enough to finally understand how to play videogames super nintendo was just at the end of the road and the n64 came out i loved this game i wish i could just live my years of age four to 8 all over again just one more time

[@aBDKstan]

He said on Twitter that he applied for a job at Retro Studios but got turned down. Which is a shame because he's my favorite video game composer

[@Grizzy823]

I wonder why they didnt make a Second oen this was the best Donkey kong game ever man i remember the day i got this on christmas wit the Green 64 i play this wit my little brother every cahnce i get still lots of fun

[@BEALTIMINTMAN79]

This music is the one thing that got me threw this extremely hard level. How can I stop playing if this is the music. Oh yeah, this doesn't play during the mini-games. Goodbye beautiful music!

[@HakuShiro18]

When I was a child this Level scared me. I hated the falling rocks and the Banana for Diddi in the Big house. But the Music was my favorite

[@Tysen11]

ahh my childhood right here :)

[@PenutButerNdJely]

these rare games and their music....

[@jessieland56]

@rootbeer543 Rare is now owned by Microsoft, who owns the Xbox. That is why DK64 isn't on the Wii Shop channel. At least, that's how I understand it to be.

[@Gruntilda-Winkybunion]

this were the times, rare and nintendo!!! Donkey Kong and Banjo-Kazooie the reason for my crazy and endless Fantasy x) thx Rare

[@CordyBrush]

admit it guys, no soundtrack in this game is better than the other. They are ALL as epic they can be! :D

[@Samsquamch23]

This song always reminded me of "The Goonies" lol. Awesome game, awesome movie.

[@jhoch5]

fans of this music need to get kingdoms of amalur reckoning, I was instantly reminded of dk64 when playing it and then found out its grant kirkhope who composed it, very beautiful yet simple soundtrack like banjo kazooie and dk64 before it

[@xXGRAND1]

DAMN THE MEMORIES!!

[@ItsQuesh]

Yes it would. I would love it.

[@OZZY123455]

how can anybody hate this game?? its the shit and has the best soundtrack : ^ D

[@MrScellaneous]

Lol, good memories. Sounds like one of those rainy day songs, you know? Aside from those "Club swinging Bastards", I used to get purposely killed because the thought of them helplessly trying to kill you was funny. However, being targeted and having the sniper or some shit say "GET OUT", very well freaked me the fuck out. Yup, good times.

[@DarkLeviathan8]

True, true, I realised that 3 months earlier since I bought it and had tons of fun with it again :D

[@MrEcentric]

this level....its something else.

[@Wookster5]

unfortunately hes now been let go by the company :( i hpe he gets somewhere soon hes by far the best composer in gaming,

[@rasul01]

Are you referring to Grant Kirkhope?

[@gillian3420]

I pray that someday this gets remade..I mean I downloaded every single song and put it on my ipod because it inspires me SO much ; o ;..

[@aBDKstan]

Yeah, I know. I feel bad for Grant and Chris Seavor as well. He's the one who created Conker and he got fired from Rare but Rare kept the rights to Conker. So he can't even make a game for a series he created.

[@CreativeGeoff]

YEP.. I sold my Super Nintendo games. that's because I didn't no it's value.. I got older and every single 64 game I have I still keep.. AND I NEVER FORGOT THE LANKY KONG GLITCH that gets you into every level of the game..ahhh the first real cheat code I ever put in.. aside from BEWAREOBLIVIONISATHAND from Turok.

[@Gruntilda-Winkybunion]

i am so glad i had this game and Banjo-Kazooie and Tooie and DKR!! im 20 now and i play them, i love them... waaa great!!!! the music from kirkhope is always epic! *.*

[@Gruntilda-Winkybunion]

31 now.. still listening 👌

[@thecheapgorilla110]

All other Donkey Kong Games are on Virtual Console,why not this one??

[@xNekomimi93x]

I LOVED the race you had to do in this level XD my friend and I had so much fun cuz we always messed up :] @galaxyguy159 - I was raised with all of them ^^ Mario, Zelda, DK 64 AAAAND banjo kazooie!

[@salsamonkey65]

I personally like the demented catacombs and ballroom music lots!

[@thecool9]

i lost this game somehow... listening to this is killing me... i wanna play it again so badly... :(

[@Slvrdcky]

i hated whenever the spikes started falling. it was real fun beating up the guy with that club.

[@Tailsfan803]

You know, thats all true. Most new games are begging to turn into that. (kinda)

[@CreativeGeoff]

I hated when that thing kept hitting the level...it scared the crap out of me lol

[@DTOWNRW16]

one of the few games i have yet to beat. God damn door wont open to get to K rool

[@TMW001]

Completly agree with you MettanAtem.

[@Deader87]

I do to, because it's sort of melancholic & childish in a nostalgic sort of way. With the crystalline-fantasy world in it

[@ZTheTinyTonTerror]

Hey... I seem to remember the "dum, dum dum dum da dum dum dum" sort of bassy sound being a flute in the game..

[@DementisXYZ]

I'm more than certain Rareware could make a lot more money were they to release a TRUE soundtrack for this game, one with almost every song on it. How many people would shove their money in rare's face to get that soundtrack?

[@Necromagenvi0n]

Grant Kirkhope is a musical god among mortals.

[@salsamonkey65]

@SelenyumSe34 Creepy Castle had sweet music too!

[@BigOrangeSnowman88]

Best Game Ever. EVER.

[@theetimelincoln]

i think a 3ds remake is in order. or heck a full on sequel!

[@AzureFlame5n1p3r]

same here i miss this game ;_;

[@SprDrumio64]

that friggin diddy kong fish challenge

[@XxArachitexX]

HighLandHotPocket - That's exactly how I felt, the anxiety, the mf rock smasher, the fear. lol. It's true; great game anyway

[@SexinessIsMine]

@DementisXYZ I would definitely pay for that and ones for Banjo Kazooie and Tooie!

[@breegull64]

Can anyone tell me why there's a muted guitar at 01:42 instead of a panflute?

[@Star_Lord_3099]

@777Icedtea i still have this game and my N64 still works :)

[@Kiirlu]

@Lews026 no, nintendo owns the rights to donkey kong and the kremlings :P

[@UltraZapdos]

@Nsanity96 About the Kirby game. It's a game about yarn!!!

[@SamMitchell90]

Did anyone else get scared on this level or was it just me? I can't remember exactly what but I used to be scared of going certain places haha

[@Kaboomboo]

I wrote lyrics to this music for my friend for Christmas one year.

[@squidsquidsquid32]

This level was so hard for me.

[@Mariooo57]

Best game ever.

[@yamigekusu]

that part of the game still gives me nightmares to this day

[@NinSega89]

Yeah, without using the internet or cheating.

[@Angeldxmichaels]

i,m crying when i hear this song..

[@TheInfernalToad]

@9legoboy9 Could not have said it better, this is my favorite game of all time :D

[@rootbeer543]

@JabuJabule But Nintendo owns rights to all things Donkey Kong. They have the rights to DK64, but the jetpack belongs to them. Its the only thing that Nintendo doesn't own in the game.

[@205whitewolf]

@TheMinh234 thank you man much appriciated

[@Grayson1048]

even without the memories, if it catches you in a bad day, this melody can make you cry even if you never played DK 64

[@njrk97]

@niniwata97 wish they would make a sequel

[@Deader87]

It more makes me think of the victims who died in 9/11 because, I played this game around the time that happened

[@metamaster5469]

gun dude:get out!!! me: okay i'm going! sheesh.

[@TheDrewol]

I also have a working N64, but i have some problems with the sticks on the controllers, they aren't stiff anymore :/

[@jessieland56]

@rootbeer543 I'm sorry. I was thinking of Banjo Tooie. My bad!

[@cutter0fsteel]

Anyone know if this will be on the wii virtual console soon?

[@ConsciousMessPodcast]

that used to be so afraid of that when i was little

[@Deader87]

Wow, what an interesting coincidence. Do you necessarily associate this game with 9/11 because you played it around the same time

[@JORDANBAUMER]

ohh and i forgot tony hawk pro skater 1

[@BollyBibby]

This level was hard for me to find when I was little. I mean, the ear?

[@Aeoncalcos91]

@theetimelincoln YES! :D

[@DoctorEvilYR]

thats beautifuel

[@church7089]

I'm currently 100%ing it!

[@rootbeer543]

@drummaboy65 No because DK is still owned by Nintendo. They put the original 3 DKC games on Wii Shop Channle. The only thing in DK64 that isn't owned by Nintendo is Jetpack. That's why Nintendo can't put it on Wii.

[@calebdoerksen2]

@rootbeer543 They were able to bring it to the Wii U.

[@Kiirlu]

Beat this level :D

[@baleenmorning]

dis fucking tune man

[@Cazzerpot]

Same. It's the reason I never beat the game.

[@JonnyJinx04]

@xHackAttackx What are you talking about? Nintendo are doing better than ever.

[@ChaosMaelstrom]

I always made it my first order of business to kill that Spikey-club-viking-helmet dude who kept causing the stalagtites to fall so I could listen to this music in peace.

[@noobking111]

join the club. I have never finished it ether. lol.

[@JingIeFett]

Thumbs up if you got all 201 bananas back in the day :)

[@Joeyyyyzx]

Listening to this just brings back childhood memories of playing this

[@plux24]

I LOVE that music!!!!! it's very relax.

[@ohno2121212]

@KennethMoreland (coming from the microsoft fanboy) not taht i dont love microsoft and all but hack is right rare and nitendo made some amazing games :)

[@rootbeer543]

@drummaboy65 Oh that other person must have been talking about Tooie then. xD MY bad. I thought they were talking about this game.

[@007e7]

but microsoft lets rareware publish games for DS because they dont give a shit about handhelds cuz they dont have 1. so there is a possibility. small but still.

[@CrazyPilf]

What a brilliant game, and the music is just as fantastic! Now that i think about it i never finished the final boss battle :( still great game. This and Jungle Japes are my favorite from this game.

[@austin2460]

@KennethMoreland rare hasnt made shit for microshit. i hate my xbox i am glad i sold that shit for a ps3.

[@editorjosh]

@KShade93 Oh without a doubt! Can't enjoy the level otherwise! haah

[@NinjoXEnlightened]

@aurlis2012 well it was certainly different but i wouldn't say it sucked... at least it was better than grabbed by the ghoulies... not much of a platformer tho... besides i didn't say good i said creative, don be puttin words in my mouth foo :P

[@Wookster5]

So stupid that they did that...bet ya they wont even make anymore games of that series too so its a waste

[@MaggotKumar]

when will they make a sequel to this game..a proper adventure one, i have been waiting almost 10 years!

[@rasul01]

Now you've been waiting 23 years, yay!

[@Grizzy823]

why the didnt make a second one is beyond me this was such a good game they need to make it for 3DS

[@rasul01]

A DK 64 sequel for the 3DS would've been so good.

[@smitbg]

HackAttack is correct. Nintendo completely lost their creative edge on making games. Just like all movies are 3D now, all Nintendo games are silly new ways to gyrate your wiimote. And Rare failed miserably at Microsoft, Nuts & Bolts was the only semi-decent game they put out in 10 years of being apart from Nintendo. Did that deal work out for anyone? Absolutely not. Take the time to appreciate the majestic partnership between N/Rare that gave us some of video game's all time bests. N64

[@curtv3]

THIS GAME IS IMPOSSIBLE. I lost mine, and it was finished, before we moved to another neighbor hood, so it must still be at our other house. BUT, I got it for Christmas in 2004, and beat the Hideout Helm in 2006. BUT I CAN'T GET THE FREAKIN' RAREWARE COIN FROM THE DONKEY KONG ARCADE GAME!!! Which is impossible.

[@gonfle10]

yes I got 201 banans, but it took me months to win the final battle... Alaways I failed with Chunky and had to start it from the begin with... by the way: did you recognize that the last banana dont have a nintendo sign? (it has the Rare-sign on it)

[@Lews026]

@cutter0fsteel I don't know. I doubt it. Rare are a shadow of their former selves and are now owned by Microsoft not a third party for Nintendo anymore. It's probably available for download on a 360 now, though.

[@Vlavv]

Wah! Thanks for the tip. I had never heard of Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, but I'll check that right now. Glad to hear that Grand Kirkhope is still producing VG music.

[@NinjoXEnlightened]

@Nsanity96 well kirby's yarn hasn't come out yet... and rare's new games are certainly creative... if nothing else... viva pinata, banjo nuts n' bolts are good examples

[@ToadsWinningGoal]

Its sad to say i dont see the day that Nindendo will work with Rare on another project, but who knows, 10 years ago who'd have thought sonic would be in a game with mario?
