Fear Factory in pristine studio quality. This was made possible by locating the sounds from workstation keyboards and drum machines such as the Korg Wavestation, Roland S770, and Roland R8, and plugging them into the music instruction data ripped from the game, plus a little mixing magic to create might have sounded like with the veil of 16bit compression lifted. Part of a project to restore the entire DKC series soundtrack

1994 feels like it was just yesterday and I was still learning how to play this game. This was one of my favorite tracks and replayed the levels just to hear the music.

[@julianofs6041]

Seems yesterday because this game will never get old, this is a classic game, and classic games never die.

What do you mean? 1994 was just five years ago.

[@Grizzlox]

Rare: we need an industrial theme that still fits in this jungle game we're making. David Wise: I'm sure i can come up with something

[@SilverHunterN]

I made a comment not too long ago being the Rare/Nintendo Emplooyees saying "Mr David Wise, we need an underwater song for our Monkey game" "Make a timeless classic? Here I go!" Fun fact: Wise is from England, and so am I. I've not come across him in person though. I have met and talked to Dan Green, who does the Voice of Yami (Yu Gi Oh) and Knuckles (Sonic X version) though.

Listening to this games soundtrack as a kid heavily influenced my taste in music as an adult. Thanks for all these restorations.

[@kaminarikatuhstrofik9534]

Me too. I listen to a ton of blues and retrowave as an adult now lol.

[@LatinaCreamQueen]

It also gave me a huge respect for video game OST. They can be some of the best stuff out there. Undertale/Deltarune is worth checking out, it's a great OST.

This track was tragically underused in the game. It would've been awesome to have the factory be one LONG, LONG level before King K. Rool.

[@warioland523]

A level like that would have fit perfectly in World 6. Like an underground factory that's at the heart of the Chimp Caverns.

Stuck in my head for the last 25 years. Epic game, epic soundtrack. Well done on the restoration of these tracks as well. Cheers

Dk's Point of View This place is new, this place is strange, From rocks and trees, an unwelcome change. This place is unlike any I've seen before, fiery furnaces and cold steel floors. What are they making, and at what cost? We know in t the process something will be lost. The air is brown, the water's green, the land is torn, all to satisfy this complex machine.... But why??

[@Giant_Rash]

This is what I love about the the environmental message in this game. They're not shoved in your face as in "DO YOU GET IT? DO YOU FUCKING GET IT??? THE PLANET IS DYING!!1!1!!!!11!!!1!!!!!1!"

[@TheSuperPlayer707]

Wow Sam... Now this sounds absolutely perfect!!! Awesome update!!!

[@truth-seeker1015]

I remember when i first got to this stage as a kid I was blown away! Music fits the stage extremely well

[@GreatWestern175]

Every time I drive by a steel mill, power plant or heavy industrial estate, I always play this music.

[@omegagamerex2148]

Imagine a darker Donkey Kong game, where the island is being industrialized by these humanoid beings, being put to work against their will by a self aware robot. I would love to see this song in like the level before the final boss. It would really fit the nature vs. machinery feeling of this song.

[@OGYouTubeEnjoyer]

That wouldn't be Donkey Kong then eh. Why not just create a new ip. Why try and mutilate every franchise with whatever gay fanfic you pulled out of your ass?

IKR? The fact that both levels this plays in are in my top 5 (with Blackout Basement being my favourite) helps appreciate the music even more.
