Donkey kong country - Super Nintendo - Aquatic level

[@camaro6t8]

This is the greatest music in a video game ever!

[@IbizanHound2]

Haha I remember pausing the game and shouting at my mom to come listen to the music!

[@IantoAndIvory]

Wait until you reach Stickerbush Symphony. and yes it's a bush, not a brush.

[@SUMMERTIMESHOOTOUTS]

I swear it is I miss this type of games 😟

[@kcsnipes]

Bro it’s up there, not the greatest for me but damn good and I just discovered this today despite having rented this game ?.?

[@craigwilson3532]

I agree n the next best would be something else from this game...or DKC2 or DKC3

[@imode256]

The best part of Donkey Kong Country's sound for me was the very subtle sound effects. They didn't overshadow the music, they didn't overdo anything, they made it clear when you got any sort of item, while keeping the mood in tact. Brilliant game. 100/10.

[@nemesis3295]

I'm not sure how the sound effects are subtle. They're very distinct and noticeable; from getting bananas to barrels. The barrels breaking are a great example and completely drowned out the sound for a moment. You're meant to know it's the priority here. They're just the sound of the game though and fit.. Go listen to 1:24 and 2:00 and try and tell me those sound effects are subtle.

[@edsstokes]

Still my favourite platform adventurer 30 years on!

[@ANSWERTHECALLOFJESUSCHRIST]

I crying right now. This took me to my teen years! It just hit me hard listening to this again. Those were simple times. 😭

I just sold all my Super Nintendo stuff. This game kept in the original box. Now I want to play it again and it's gone. Haunting music.

If you get a Switch all 3 original DK Country games are free to download 👍🍌🍌

[@timosee]

even after all these years, this track is unforgettable. listening back now with better headphones, hearing aids, and more appreciation for music, it's a masterpiece. thanks for posting this, dude!

[@FoShoMang]

ill never forget this amazing music

[@theghostlyspirit6927]

Man I remember playing this when I was a kid. My dad bought a snes and he got donkey Kong. I was around like 4 at the time and I remember the soundtrack. From what I remember these songs were what I couldn't stop thinking of when I was younger. I never got to beat the game cause I was literally like 4 but I do remember my dad andy cousins playing this. Life was best back then because I got to see and play these revolutionary games. Nowadays I feel as if games have gotten less revolutionary and to be fair that would make sense as it's hard to be that original and revolutionary especially in this day and age. But I still long for those times even if my mind is less impressionable than before.

[@Ahumada-rg9pk]

@theghostlyspirit6927 I can relate to this a lot. Love your comment G

[@guaguancos.montunodcubop8923]

Crazy. I used to vibe tf out to this music. Had to come and look for it and .......aaaaaaah soothed my broken soul. Where has the time gone. Gotdamnit

[@hectorfrausto9705]

This has to go down as one of the greatest video game levels in history just for the music and ambience alone

[@jimmyfeliciano29]

They brought back this soundtrack in Dkc tropical freeze.

[@TheDarkKRoo]

They actually brought back david wise. the man who not only composed tho song but also composed the entire dkc2 soundtrack.

Bro 16 years ago.. boy oh boy.. now I’m married, been through the military, addicted to substances and trying to figure my way out by and what to do as an adult for the rest of my life. Oh boy.. do I miss the simple times this music brings back.. born in 94 🙌

[@Digilady99]

I used to sit and watch my brother play this game when we were very young. This was an awesome game and thanks to watching my brother, I beat the whole game! I miss it so much! But I always asked they have lungs so how can they breathe underwater for THAT long? My brother tells me it's just a game. Still! :)

[@diegogamerworld5295]

beatiful music

[@jefft7705]

Oh the nostalgia! Such great memories playing this game.

[@jamesthomas4693]

My mind can't fathom that this video was made 16 years ago but came out even longer ago than that. You're telling me this video was made in 2007?

[@Fighter2014]

27th of June, 2007, exactly 🙂

[@dustynuggets22]

Such smooth game play. It's relaxing to watch-especially with the music. Never understood ASMR, but this I get around.

[@matiasignaciopalmacontrera5132]

Aquatic Level es muy buena, además la música es muy relajante porque haces que te tranquilice y olvides todos tus problemas.

[@greenjay86]

thank you so much for bringing back so many lost memories. i couldnt help but drop a few tears. I used to play this with my closest friends and family. they are no longer here but when i watch videos like this, theyre sitting right next to me...thank you again.

[@MsNotzi]

Dang...I feel like you actually recorded me playing this level for the first time. This is almost exactly the way I'd play it back in the day. Thanks for the memories!

[@dokuro9207]

It’s 2020 Friday the 16th of October I should be asleep but this song came into my mind The nostalgia it’s just like makes you think of how fast time flies I hope it gets recommended in the future even though The video is 13 years old

GREAT OLD MEMORIES. MY FRIEND LOVES THIS GAME BUT DOESNT PLAY THEM. SHE JUST KNOWS ABOUT IT FROM ME AS IM AN ELDERLY GAMER.

[@RaptureMusicOfficial]

I played DKC in 1994 for the first time in vacation, I brought my SNES with me to vacation to the ocean in summer.... me and friend were blown away! And we always dreamed of that music when we bathed in the ocean on that 1994 vacation. Great times! DKC rules, esp the first part! DKC2 and DKC3 are ok though.. :)

[@Terry-nx8kg]

Pretty much on par with the water level music from the Sega Genesis game World of Illusion.

[@noahlsmith2488]

I love the music on the water stages. Even though they seem to have a sad tone. It does bring nostalgia. A lot of it. But I know it has a sad tone to it. And that is not just because of the nostalgia.

[@veronicalopez-hudson3268]

My daughter is playing a roblox game that is using this music , my heart jumped ! Oh the memories, I’m going to have to buy all this stuff now to play because now I’m here showing my 9 and 6 year old the Donkey Kong game and they are amazed 🙂 thank you for this video 😉

[@RinocerontusReal]

IT'S BEEN 13 YEARS HOW HAVE YOU BEEN?

[@yoshtg]

man, im from germany and the nostaliga is insane. i remember playing this at grandmas house while watching a beautiful sunset when i was like 7 years old. and i remember vacation on mallorca around the same time.. everything was so exciting. im 22 years old now and everything seems so boring. i kinda wish i could go back to the old times with the knowledge i have now. it would be insane. overall i had a bad childhood but i can remember few moments which have been really good. i kinda want to feel the excitement that i had back then. as i said before i was 7, im 22 (almost 23) now that means that i was closer to non-existence than to my current age back then. infact more than half as close. eventually i will die and be non-existent again just like 23 years ago. feels kinda weird to think about it :/

[@ThePedrotrance]

YoshTG Perfect times :)

[@joselara5694]

Lol I was really into psychology around your age. Take some LSD learn what existence means, then you will kinda just stop caring about it because you realize there is nothing you can do to change it, then just focus on going to work and paying you Bill's, and enjoying your free time.

[@litterboks]

This level was almost impossible for me to play when I was a child. I always saw horrifying skeletal bunny heads in the stone sprites. For example at 2:35 the stones on the right upper side. Edit: Another variation of it at 2:38, donkey passing right through it. I know it was just a weird way to interprete it but it scared me A LOT

[@jwilliams1031]

i see it

[@michaelahernandezxd9658]

everything for me was simple and I was only 9 back then, the only season that was hard for me to play was the one that looks like polar lol, but I love this game, i dont know if its me and my nostalgia, but it doesnt compare to the games that people play these days.

i feel bad for the kids of today. They won't really experience the legend that is Donkey Kong Country. More than a decade later I still remember playing, and beating, this game so, so, clearly. I remember cheering when I finally beat King K. Rool and being shocked when he got back up. This music always makes me happy, in a nostalgic sort of way.

The empty seabed in the background was always oddly relaxing to me. The music and general vibe certainly did their part towards that.
