Life in the Mines - Donkey Kong Country (Arr. by Andrew De Lange)

[@andrewrecreatormusic3536]

I'm sorry for the swift re-upload. I realized I had published the wrong version! Especially sorry to the first commenters. I've bee holding onto this song for a long time, trying to get that anvil/monkey sound backbeat sounding right. Stick around for a nice outro at the end too. Man, these DKC songs are so timeless.. As much as I'd like to arrange something from another game, I keep coming back to David Wise's magical tunes.

[@pangolothian]

I love you for it. Your aquatic ambience is unmatched. This is a masterpiece as well.

[@andrewrecreatormusic3536]

@@pangolothian Ah thank you :) that aquatic ambience piece will always be my favorite

[@fleemzx9623]

This sounds incredible, once again! Who does the art for the image here? I like those too!

[@sojourner650]

I don't know what it is about your style, but when you re-make a track, it goes from flat 2D to full 3D in my head. Amazing work!

Haha!

I dont care if isn't faithful. Finally a FRESH cover. 🥰🥰🥰 Thx mate. 👍

[@Cryptospuridiom]

You often hear DKC music admirably recreated or reimagined and it's a welcome treat. Rarely, however, is the original track actually elevated to something exceptional. Life in the Mines has never exactly been on my top ten tracks from the series, but this rendition is powerful and arresting, truly. Very much in the spirit of Wise's work with a whole lot of something more interwoven. Forgive me for gushing, I am officially a big fan.

[@ximension]

You are kidding right? I love you man. You are always remixing my favourite songs. This is so amazing. I can‘t describe how I am feeling right now. Somehow relaxed but also thoughtful, you know. Thank you so much, this is so good.

[@andrewrecreatormusic3536]

AH! yeah!! that's exactly the only reason I make music. Weird/relaxed/thoughtful/wonder vibes. Thanks for the comment :)

[@ximension]

@@andrewrecreatormusic3536 Nice, you do it really well :) (helps me through online meeting right now)

[@AyiLaBelle]

Bravo! nice remix of the best music ever composed for a videogame!

[@SunBunz]

One of my favorite themes! Made so much better. You’re amazing! 2:37 the feels, omg. This gave me goosebumps!!!

[@andrewrecreatormusic3536]

Yes! The atmospheric tracks for this game were somehow able to still utilize incredible melodies and themes to where they don't really seem atmospheric anymore. The cave and underwater songs are some of the most moody and beautiful in the game.

[@MetalHeadKendra]

Aw, no! I new I should have checked my subscribed videos sooner. I would have had this on repeat all day dangit. Another beautiful masterpiece, I absolutely ADORE what you make. This is a unique spin on this particular track that makes it stand out from the rest of the remixes in my opinion. Love how it came out; seeming like a magical experience deep within the caves and mine shafts, showing wonder and awe with light inside the darkest places ♥

[@andrewrecreatormusic3536]

That's the most amazing part about this environment in the game. The music feels like a lost memory or something, mixed with the scenery of little lights in long cavernous tunnels. Such a sense of wonderment. Glad you like it :)

[@jeremyknight9980]

I was looking for lofi remixes of DKC music wondering if there was a cover of Life in the Mines. I Found this instead and I'm very blown away, I love how this has an emotional epic adventure feel to it. 1:40 to 2:08 and 3:04 to 3:50 are my favorites.

[@Duhemsounds]

One of my fav Donkey Kong track, you've made a good work on it Andrew

[@andrewrecreatormusic3536]

I super appreciate it :)

[@RebeccaETripp]

This is so neat! The percussion is groovy, mysterious and a little creepy. ^_^ The synths also have a very haunting quality about them.

[@andrewrecreatormusic3536]

Yes! And thank you. I had a good time making this one :)

[@RebeccaETripp]

@@andrewrecreatormusic3536 I'm still listening! I hope you'll be able to share more music soon! ^_^

Wow. Great work. I love DKC soundtrack (and the games too) these games reminds me the good old days. I wish I could go back when I was a child and play for the first time. Thank you for that. From Switzerland :-)

Finally, I have been waiting for your take on this song, which is my favorite in the trilogy. This does not disappoint, thank you.

[@andrewrecreatormusic3536]

Thank you! What's your next favorite?

[@Jtmingus1]

@@andrewrecreatormusic3536 For the trilogy, Cave Dweller Concert. I know it's more of an ambience based song, but it is beautiful to me. Shame there are hardly any good remixes of it. Otherwise Wing Ding from Tropical Freeze.

[@andyjoed]

@@Jtmingus1 Oh this was one I wanted to mess with too. I love the minimalism of it. Also, if you like Cave Dweller Concert, you should check out the Myst soundtrack.

I've adored all of your work and this might be your best yet, I can't wait to see what you come up with next!

[@guywatchingm3m3s]

I remember chilling to this when I was younger. Now it is just a fine composition for me, nothing more. It's great, hands down, it's just me who got dried up by a long day of speaking

Please continue to complete this soundtrack! DK, especially DK2 will always be a legendary series and soundtrack. I feel like Lockjaw will promise. Also off topic, Dire Dire Docks would add to the nostalgic to many of us! 🙏

They're all just so good... I'm definitely in a DKC vortex, although I think the next one should probably be something from another game, just to mix it up a bit
