[@RichaadEB]

Gonna keep reminding y'all to HIT THE BELL BUTTON if ya wanna receive notifications from me - KZbin is kinda messed up right now with their attempts to fix the demonetization issue and it seems the repercussions are falling on channels like mine. Hope to see you all soon!

[@accountname8330]

Sad to hear it, because this song is AMAZING. I keep coming back to it!

[@TheShoryukenhadoken]

RichaadEB it does help being this comment helped me notice my bell was not clicked to get notification for ya

[@TrashWorld]

How is this not Advertiser friendly?? ?????????

[@colos8724]

I would love to see you play a more full version of bloody tears from the castlevania series :D

[@seibpa]

i rang that bell as if i were at texas tech

[@kingdedede4856]

I don’t know how to properly convey to my wife and daughter that I am crying because I’ve been moved by a metal cover of a song that plays in the background of a game where two monkeys swim toward a goal post.

[@richardrowland9511]

Hahahaha the song was made for feelings it’s okay

[@ZoneOniLunaTetsuga]

[@meme-ah2298]

How in the hell were you able to turn AQUATIC AMBIANCE INTO FREAKING METAL. LIKE HOW AND IT TURNED OUT AMAZING.

[@citizensunitednegatingtech9783]

EVERYTHING SNES IS METAL, JUST HIDDEN A LITTLE, SOME DONT HIDE THEIR POWER LEVEL, CHECK THE GAME "LAGOON" ITS OPENING IS SPEED PUNK METAL, OUT OF THE BOX

[@phantom_wolf5274]

You can turn anything metal if you have an electric guitar, bass guitar, drums, and a distortion pedal

[@riotjavelin]

>was listening to the original tune >wondered if there's a metal cover of it >typed 'donkey kong aquatic ambience metal' ya know, just to relax >found this, played it >the chills around my body won't let me relax >10/10 not disappointed

[@Kamex]

This is so freaking underrated

[@The8BitDrummer]

That was Incredible dude! :D

[@hermishmer]

Hell yeah it was

[@blackholedays]

Holy fucking shit, it was indeed

[@lancelnce]

You're both incredible. xD

[@Shadycicada]

Probably my favorite cover of this song yet! Also how did you hold your breath underwater for so long :O :O :O

[@toasterstrooder8628]

Look up "Between Music" and ask them. Rich probably used the same technique that they did.

[@ItsLeah43]

When I first saw this, I legitimately thought "How could you ever make a metal cover of Aquatic Ambiance?", But this is easily one of my favorite covers of yours. It has so many layers, I love the piano that was mixed in, and the slow, quiet intro leading into the rest of the song is brilliant. Keep being awesome, Rich!

[@xXRazorbacksXx]

It's risky as hell to change up a classic song that's dear to so many people so much. But my god dude you do it with amazing results consistently. I think I might actually like this better than the original. You're insane my dude.

[@DYLZAL]

rich on twitter: soz no cover this week, I'm busy eating turkey. *one day later rich: just kidding here's tHE BEST FUCKING THING I HAVE EVER FUCKING DONE!

[@sheriffcrandy]

1:49 I almost threw my phone that was such a sick pause.

[@RoPanuganti]

This might be the next most beautiful song you've done, and thats topping Corridors from ya. Pls keep being extra special

[@ToxicxEternity]

hell yeah man. so good!

[@victorbarbieri4567]

Man, its been a few years I've been following your channel and never left a single comment. But with this video, I just have to thank you, for giving me this awesome experience and congratulate you for this awesome work, everything is insanely good, the video, arrangement and mix. Amazing.

[@gabrielegian198]

I'm going through a difficult time, had a lot of changes in my life... and sitting here, listening to your music, especially this, make me feel good... it's awesome, thank you for this 5 minutes of inner peace, it's exacly what i needed

[@SupermarioWyatt]

hope you're doing good now chief

[@jnsk1a2b3c]

How did you record your guitar in the ocean did you use a special cable?

[@gabocarina96]

Holy shit man..! Probably a new favorite for me... also it looks very nice! :D

[@RichaadEB]

ty dude!!!!!!!

[@tdkey777]

This one still remains your best work in my mind. Absolutely love it.

[@stedankel]

Um... WHAT!? THIS IS THE MOST AMAZING THING I HAVE HEARD IN A LONG, LONG TIME! (And I'm a music producer) It literally brought me to tears... Just so accurate and EXACTLY what I envisioned as a metal cover! I can feel the passion and love you have for these games and the music. I think Dave Wise would love this! Seriously, well done!

[@RicoRomanProductions]

2:20-2:40 just shredded my fucking BRAIN. So amazing

[@Gradivisor]

Richaad! Just wanted to tell you how much I love your music! I feel like everytime you release a new vid I always end up thinking, "Oh, this is my new favorite!" You literally just keep getting better as time goes on, and its really cool to watch you grow as a musician! Thanks for the bangers man! Stay cool mah dude! xD

[@RichaadEB]

Gradivisor will do my dude!! thanks!

[@corderostevenroman]

This is better than 99% of metal bands.

worst take i've ever heard

[@DacianGradaMusic]

oh boy after all that intense ambiance, that final breakdown

[@flopfish-qx5fy]

I reasentally started listening to you and this is probally my favourite song that you have covered. Its so freaking good!

[@lmildrum]

That opening at like 0:32 gave me chills. Ever since hearing a metal cover of Lockjaw's Saga from DKC2, keep looking for as many of these as I can find

[@Altamyr]

Every single video Rachel films looks so good and then every single video that comes next looks SO MUCH BETTER fantastic visuals, amazing music. I hope you had a very relaxing Thanksgiving!

[@notrachelable]

awww thanks Mallow!!!

[@Altamyr]

it's a very good song!!

[@christianschweda2530]

Awesome cover! :D 4:35 - BEST PART!!! Love your stuff, the songs get me through the workdays...

[@t3chn0w1z4rd]

This cover is a monster, and such an amazing improvement on the original.

[@tribacioustee2846]

I never realised how badly I needed this cover until I saw it in my feed.

[@epicgamer235]

Amazing! It sounds so dramatic! Very nice work. Thank you!

[@Kaaskip64]

I love how you tackle all of my favourite games. Every new song gives me goosebumps. Keep doing what you're doing man ^^

[@DemonshireMetalMusic]

This may be one of your best covers. I absolutely love it, and hate myself for never being able to come up with something like that!

[@DanVasc]

AWESOME stuff! So nostalgic

[@Legendav]

holy smokes this video is the best i think i've ever seen from your channel. and your arrangement is EXACTLY the kind of richaadeb i like

[@ygypt]

this is my favorite song and you are my favorite cover artist. just wanna say ive listened to this song a billion times since its release and it still bangs

[@DeepThoughtG]

One of the exceptional pieces of the 16-bit game era. Fantastic choice and great arrangement and playing, as always!

[@wyattthomas1763]

This turned out so well, brings back a lot of memories from my childhood. but if I leave it on loop like I like to It makes me fall asleep!!!

[@fightingthefaith]

I can't believe this song doesn't have over a million views yet

[@JTriggerVideos]

Awesome job dude, that guitar tone is fucking rad. This theme seriously sends me on a huge nostalgia trip. Your rendition of it just makes that even better :D

[@mario101395]

Jesus that was amazing, easily one of the best things I have heard VGM cover-wise in a long time, great stuff!

[@freddywondercat1362]

This is the best cover of this song I've ever heard to this day

[@sonicfan27music]

Ohhh that breakdown and those 0-0-0s! the riffs and the leads just everything! this is drop c heaven and who knew metalcore and videogame music could be so sick together!

[@ChristianRichardson]

Everything about this is just beautiful T_T

[@HaarasNC]

Sick rendition! I love it

[@facepwnagewtf]

I have heard many renditions of this song done as a metal tribute but goddamn this is by far the best iteration i have heard thus far.

[@laxplayactiongameplays9272]

Brutal!!

[@GiovannyRijckewaert]

How the bloody bollocks did I just discovered this just now?! This is an amazing metal cover!! Thx for this!! 🤘

[@JoeSurprentis]

This is the best donkey kong cover of all time easily without a doubt. I almost want RichaadEB to do it again but somehow make it even more epic but I dont think thats possible because this is the pinnacle of epic I just wanna see him do it again for the hell of it honestly.

[@ldeverglobal1]

I am Abosultey floored by this version. Was looking to find a cover version and found this gem. Awesome work.

[@notrachelable]

I'm buying this as soon as it's live. It's definitely one of my new favorites

[@Mik3Th3Rock3r]

1:50 gets me everytime. Amazing

[@MoonSpiritChannel]

(lighting my phone's flashlight function to pay tribute)

[@johntitor5543]

MoonSpirit cringe

[@Lazarus3737]

It doesn't work. Use a real lighter.

[@Aucelo]

How is that this hasn't at least 2M views already?

[@corpuscallosum1357]

Not only did you respect the source material, you elevated it. Epic as always. Now do Moonlight Sonata. You king.

[@LeviBechtold]

Love the lighting effects! You're production quality is outstanding!

[@ForrestFurst]

Fell in love with this cover at second one. Great job!!

[@darkIkarus]

Beautiful, powerful, setting the right tone for building a bridge from the original to the rocky cover. I love it! Thanks for sharing.

[@adampickett6011]

never cease to surprise me dude. keep up the fantastic work.

[@Archontasil]

More DKC 1 and 2 please!! Jib jig would be fun

[@starvein8841]

Archontasius jib jig would be nuts! We can only hope...

[@dragon_turtle]

Definitely got an August Burns Red vibe from this. Been waiting for this one for a while, nice job!!

[@jordanbruce]

Beautiful bass interlude after the guitar solo. Didn’t expect that

[@z2023__]

Haven't come to this channel in a long time. Haven't heard this cover in a while, almost a year since last time 🤣 I get goosebumps everytime

[@Redcom001]

The guitar solo sounded even better than I was imagining it in my head before I randomly decided to look this up

[@LocuritasOfMadness]

Sick mixing. You are awesome.

[@mrcoolr429]

My all time favorite game track and you pulled it off.... Bravo 👌

[@pinchauvas9747]

I'm pretty sure you don't speed up the videos, I'm confident in your skill, but sometimes you're so good that I kinda start doubting it. Like, DAMN, that part at 2:30 was amazing, and you've probably played faster tunes in those Touhou covers. Keep being awesome

[@LadyStarFox]

Was waiting for this cover!!!!!!!

[@gubberdude9963]

Never really a fan of the metalcore/breakdown drumming, but the guitar work and arrangement is just so amazing!

[@Baalthazzar]

Ok so this is my favorite video game song of all time, I have so many memories connected to it. You did a wonderful job on this cover, I really like the different take on this one.

[@Chalmsloff]

I had always hoped that you would cover this beautiful song, and finally you have ;; It's magnificent.

[@ronbrokaw2779]

Gives me chills every time. Beautifully done

[@lovemypearldrum]

So glad you did a cover for this!!!

[@Jamailmusic]

I wasn't ready. This is amazing!

[@Taha632RMF]

I never expected this song to work with heavy metal, but it surprisingly does

[@Almarad]

My favorite game OST being played with my favorite guitar, this is simply amazing

[@SlenderHugger]

OMG! Hell yeah!!! The DKC series OST is probably the OST that I like the most. If you're doing any more DKC 1-2-3 songs in the futur, I'm gonna lose my mind Rich! This song is GREAT and I lOVE it! PLEASE make more from DKC 2 or 3! :D

[@DannLink]

The best rendition of Aquatic Ambience ever

[@Gahuboy]

Another incredible Cover, thanks for the hard work man =)

[@AlefSousa017]

The djent is strong with this one! Great job, Rich, it is awesome!!

[@williamkoscielniak820]

You just turned Aquatic Ambiance into metal and made it work. Hats off to you sir!

[@130grit]

Yea bass solo!

[@RichaadEB]

BASS IS HARD

[@lackey2954]

Hell yeah!!!! I love this cover so much man. I love when you do your rhythm riffage !!

[@rubenjorge13]

One of your best covers!!! This is EPIC!!!

[@jumpfold]

Very nice clean and precise. Love your content bro keep it up.

[@Ritual_toaster]

Loved the game and love how you've made it come to life even more. Keep up the good work!

[@AndrewMarkII]

I'm a simple man, I see aquatic ambience, I click...

[@Mr-rj9dg]

stop being so good. Seriously keep it up rich

[@krazykillamofo1]

great cover! DKC is a near and great game from my childhood! Would love to see DKC2 Covers too! Like K. Rool Boss themes from DKC 2 which is a fav of mine or any others form DKC 2. I love the music in that! Keep up the great work!

[@tales.noheads]

That was indescribably amazing! 👏

[@RarelyKnownAs]

I was just listening to this OST and the underwater levels always stood out to me, so hearing a cover of this is amazing coincidence.

[@KadeKalka]

I'm definitely getting some BTBAM Colors vibes from this. But really though, you did fucking amazing with this!! I loved a lot of the stuff you did to the chord progressions and I really enjoyed the D J E N T parts. Keep up the great work Rich; you're a real inspiration to me!

[@FelipeMS90]

I heard just one second and already hit the like button. Good job!

[@Mike-ck8kl]

Still one of the top five most beautiful and entrancing songs I have ever heard about monkeys riding on fish.

[@contrapassose7en]

It's the best cover I've ever heard for this tune. Very very impressive!

[@xdeathwalkingterrorx]

liked before even listening. stoked to hear dis.

[@edge3220]

Metal + Ambient. Never thought I'd see the day. I can't stop smiling!

[@estebanbenitez7687]

You should definitely make this into an hour long loop. I would listen to this song all day

[@NahTony]

This is outstanding. Looks and sounds beautiful.

[@SirSlyBird]

Man this is Awesome. It's amazing how one song is interpreted differently. Little V is more mellow and yours is heavy. Love em both. So I Bought them both.

[@raybrown8337]

I love this cover. The Cover that you did with Ace Waters was also really good too! I was almost wondering why you decided to do a Metal only cover too but after hearing it I love it
