MUSIC DIRECTOR REACTS | Stickerbrush Symphony - Super Smash Bros. Brawl

[@DrumRollTonyReacts]

We should probably do more votes to pick vids. I had fun with this 🎵🎵 I also did the 2nd place vote video - God of War 3 Overture. It's on Patreon in the FREE VIDEO section www.patreon.com/c/drumrolltonyreacts

[@Kanakou_DX15]

How're the songs picked out for the polls then? If there's ever a Touhou poll I'll be there to cast my vote!

[@DrumRollTonyReacts]

@Kanakou_DX15 i grabbed them from the discord suggestions channel

[@Kanakou_DX15]

@@DrumRollTonyReacts Ah, I see. I don't have a Discord, but I do hope someone suggests a Touhou tune on my behalf. Cheers for the response either way though, Tony

[@DrumRollTonyReacts]

I listened to the original on stream tonight... def liked it! Great to hear the contrast between the two

[@weldy00]

Ahaha, love that, was just down here to suggest it! Both versions hit hard for me as they were from different parts of my childhood! DKC2 was a game I played with my dad, and Brawl was one of the first games I played with my lifetime friend! Thanks for the wave of nostalgia! Keep being awesome Tony!

[@hellohamza2]

Where can we catch your reaction to the original - was it a stream on twitch? I couldn't see any recordings of past streams there!

[@Velos3]

Hah, see I told ya the music is awesome. This year I suggested this song and you weren't convinced if it's popular enough

[@Pharoah_Nines]

This song brings back memories

[@dylansilva2589]

You should check out the DKC2 version of this song. That is where the track originally came from, and that version feels a lot more euphoric (sounds like you're floating on a cloud). 100% worth a listen. I prefer the OG over this remix for smash, but to each their own!

[@DrumRollTonyReacts]

I'm definitely going to check that out

[@epu7539]

I definitely agree with this comment

[@wisemonkey6716]

this remix is more of a repurposed version i dont think they're too comparable but the og is definitely a classic

[@kevin13cabello]

I personally love both versions but people tend to forget about the original one so if we could put more of a spotlight on that one as well, that would be awesome.

[@wisemonkey6716]

@@kevin13cabello thats interesting i always thought it was the other way around, but ig smash bros was probably more accessible to my generation than the original donkey kong games

[@alispie]

David Wise (the composer of the original version for Donkey Kong Country 2) is a legend. He made so many great tracks for Rare back in the day.

[@komi___]

This version of the song, for some reason is really nice to listen to when there is a thunderstorm outside and you can hear the rain fall. It's like the thunders complement it.

[@Guardie]

There is an INSANE cover of this in a brawl fan album called "Harmony of Heroes" The track is called "Rush of the Rainforest" and its easily one of my favourite VGM covers ever made!

[@thenonexistinghero]

Well, gotta remember to look that up soon.

[@Very_Bord]

To this day, this remains my all-time favorite video game song. It's just so absolutely peak. I don't even play Donkey Kong lol.

[@SnowyJop]

This is a favorite of mine! An orchestration based on the original composition from one of the greats, David Wise, who wrote the music for the original Donkey Kong Country games. If you ever get the urge, listen to the original Stickerbush Symphony or some other fan favorites, Aquatic Ambiance and/or Forest Interlude The songs are super ahead of their time, they’re almost predictive of the shoegaze resurgence, but stand as beautiful pieces of music that evoke a sense of nostalgia, calmness, and mystery.

[@doomcheck]

Thank you for reacting to my suggestion. Will definitely suggest more in the future.

[@Greekanese31]

Glad to hear you liked this piece! When I first played Super Smash Bros Brawl years ago, this song immediately captivated my heart, such that I went out and bought Donkey Kong Country 2 where this originates and another game composed by the arranger of this specific rendition. The difference between these two is rather large but both I think are exceptional tracks for different reasons. The original was composed by a legend in video game composing - David Wise - and this arrangement comes to us from a rather underrated composer Michiko Naruke. She is most well known for her work in composing the Wild Arms series of RPGs starting back on PlayStation 1, composing the first 4 games of that series solo before later leading the sound team for those titles. Those soundtracks are very interesting for being extremely inspired by the scores of spaghetti western movies - especially those composed by Ennio Morricone - which is rather rare for game music, especially coming out of Japan. I'd love if a track from that series ever were to come up in a future poll, though I understand they are a lot more niche and unlikely to win

[@thenonexistinghero]

I think this and the main theme are pretty much the first 2 songs that people think about when it comes to SSBB music. And for SSBU I suppose it's that one birdman's song of which I forgot the name, but it's based on the BotW song. It's not quite as transformative of a remix though (but still great).

[@kevin13cabello]

​@thenonexistinghero If you're talking about Kass's theme, that one was Yoko Shimomura. I can see how you mixed them up though bc they have a similar composition style (or like instrumentation usage) when it comes to their smash arrangements, at least imo.

[@kevin13cabello]

Another one of my absolute favorite arrangements that she did for brawl was the Ocarina of Time Medley. It's absolutely gorgeous. I have got to check out her work in the Wild Arms series bc I love what she's done for Smash.

[@thenonexistinghero]

@@kevin13cabello I didn't mix them up. It was about how that remix for SSBU is usually the one that people think about when they think about SSBU music after the main theme.

[@davewu8938]

Absolutely love this. This track is probably my favorite song choice when I play (or practice) competitive Smash ultimate. So calming yet so motivating at the same time. Cannot get enough of this!

[@Kur0m0ri]

You should definitely react to the main theme of brawl. Nobuo Uematsu himself composed it

[@DrumRollTonyReacts]

👀

[@willtg4508]

Title says Stickerbrush, video says Stickerbush, I'll never know the real name of this song

[@DrumRollTonyReacts]

👀 oh mannn 🤣🤣🤣🤣 oooops

[@alexpaperstar]

As always, loved your reaction and breakdown Tony. Especially for this piece, as it's kind of a classic imo. You're right the loop didn't add anything different, but I wonder for future votes if people should mention in their suggestion whether there are any differences.

[@radiantbro256]

This is one of those nostalgic pieces for me and it will forever have a place in my heart. glad to see it mentioned!

[@rinner_senpai]

The original is one of my favorite songs of all time.

[@beats321]

Absolute nostalgia.

[@realkiller2160]

This song is the reason I'm even interested in musical composition. This song and Gusty Garden from Galaxy was the best part of my experience with the Wii.

[@olaf8778]

really bummed that war without reason isnt getting covered, but this one is a classic aswell.

[@luiztomikawa]

I voted for this one and didn't even knew what song it was. But man what a blast from the past! 😅

[@michimaybe]

thank you for reacting to this drumrolltony 🤍

[@MortalMercury]

Ah, I remember the video of the original version, it was an internet checkpoint but it got deleted and then reuploaded by someone else.

[@vlander1992able]

If you get the chance, even if you don't record it, you must listen to the original. It's an experience that can't be described with words but with memories.

[@boltsquad6445]

You should listen to the original stickerbush symphony, this is song is actually bramble blast (The Brawl remix of the song). The OG was actually made by david wise and mans was a goat

[@Flipcrash]

2:00 Why do i feel like if i sesrch it up i wont be suprised the person who wrote this did the MyHero and Haikyu sound track

[@yorkwestenhaver8680]

You gotta do the main menu theme from Bloodborne!! It's the best song in the game!

[@ricardoorozco9757]

Check wing Ding from DK tropical Freeze please 🙏

[@ricardoorozco9757]

By The way that arrangement of Sticker Brush symphony was made by Michiko Naruke The composer of The OST from Wild Arms 👌✨ she is one of my favorite composer of videogame world .

[@GatikiKartzi]

You should listen to the ost from Super Mario Galaxy. It's imo the best orchestral music of any video game soundtrack ever

[@KN33_01L]

tonyyyyyyy! eve album droppeddddddd

[@TG-bl9kr]

Hello! Have you checked out any of the Tetris Effect music at all yet? Their level music is rather unique and was curious

[@blissx7556]

Need to check out the original from Donkey Kong Country 2. This one just doesn't hit the same.

[@DrumRollTonyReacts]

We listened to it last night on stream. It was great. Definitely has that SNES of musical elements
