Yoshi's Island - World Map Theme Acapella

[@SmoothMcGroove]

Back when my channel had like 50 subscribers, someone requested this in a video comment. So this one's for you, dude from six years ago. I finally did it :)

[@mike_nelson]

Quality comment from one of the best KZbinrs out there. I've been subbed since 1000 something, not quite from the very beginning like the dude who requested this. But any video you put up gets an insta-click to watch. As always, keep up the great work and I hope things are going great for you. (BTW, my twin daughters have been bouncing along to your tunes since they were younger than 1. They'll be 6 this year and they love your work too!).

Good to see you read our comments! I'll keep making requests, but remember, I am not going to force you to do anything, when I, and most of your fans, ask for songs in the comments, we are only doing suggestions. Just do whatever you want to do, our requests are just some ideas we give you.

Oh! I've played the bongos as well!

It's called "beatboxing" or "voice sampling".

[@amaice]

Ángel Hdz I don't think that's really beatboxing...

[@SkyeGMSquad]

I tried to do this myself and couldn't. I don't know if there's a method or if Smooth just has a face just more suited to that.

Oh my God you even did the extra instruments thing as you unlock other worlds. AMAZING!

[@blueshooter390]

when smooth mcgroove hit high notes: *PUBERTY HAS LEFT THE CHAT*

[@AnthonyMtheGamerArtist]

McGroove just has super-smooth vocal range; kinda required for acapella.

[@Maxwell_Twist]

Puberty hit my vocal cords like a god damn semi. I went from a mid-range tenor to a low and loud bass. Every time I try to get those somewhat high notes, my voice cracks more than it did when I was actually going through puberty.

[@Crom87]

I truly love that you did all versions, not just sticking to one. I expected only last version.

[@Dargonhuman]

Right? This is basically how I have these themes on my MP3 player.

[@K4RN4GE911]

I was literally thinking at work earlier today, "I wonder if anyone's ever done acapella of Yoshi's Map Theme. It would be awesome to hear Smooth McGroove do it!" AND YOU DID!!!

[@dierare]

Honestly man, your acapellas are really awesome and all, but the best thing about it is that you seem to have blastin' fun time in each on. I'm glad you can do this for a living! Keep up the good work!

[@SSTrunks666]

Love the layers to this one. How you're able to keep adding new elements over time, creating something amazing! Well done!

[@c0mf0rta61ynum6]

I love how that's actually a reference to the actual game, where the further into the game you get with each world, it adds more to the song.

[@aIkaIi]

It's for each new world. Each new world in the game adds some new element/instrument to the music.

Oh boy, did it feel gratifying to listen to this map theme after finally finishing the whole game (it took wayyyyyy too long to beat). I really felt accomplished to hear this cheerful tune...wait. Smooth McGroove made an Acapella of it? My man, you've done it again!!

Literally my favorite theme from Yoshi's Island, another outstanding acapella!!

[@Figgydonut]

Yoshi's Island is one of those games that defined my childhood. Another great theme from this game is the Castle/Fortress theme. I used to just stand in one just to hear the music, way before the internet had everything. I'd love to hear your take on it. P.S. Your cat is gorgeous and must think you're delicious.

[@Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet]

This song is a slow burn of joy, beginning with a smirk that evolves into a cathartic skipping into the sunset.

Not just saying this, but I don't think I click anybody's videos faster than I do Smooth McGrooves. Thanks for the tunes man. Constant nostaglia.

[@JonathanRobertAlexander]

Personally, I'd be ecstatic if he did Miracle Matter. The way it starts off with the main boss theme dying out; the more low-key sections providing a "quiet space" in between the adrenaline-pumping choruses; the sweeping orchestral part leading you back to the start of the loop...a deviously well-constructed boss theme all around.

[@MarkoJerry]

Yay a new Acapella good job as always!

[@ceeviceevi]
