Super Mario 64: Koopa's Road (Vector U Remix)

WOOOOO we're starting off the N64 album with a BANG fam :D
The lady picked this song since it's her favorite childhood game, and I think it was a great choice. When I was picking a genre for Koopa's Road, I wanted something energetic but also epic/evil sounding. This is my first Complextro song, (a wubby sub-genre of Electro House) and I really like how it turned out! I tried to sort of tell a story with the in game sound effects, starting with the evil foreboding Bowser laugh and ending with the triumphant defeat. The intrinsic nature of complextro lent itself to the choppy syncopation of the lead and chords. In short, feelsgoodman.

[@savagelysuperior8913]

Vector U, can you tell me which ones were right and wrong?

[@Nova-qx2lm]

Respect for taking the time to do this😂

[@savagelysuperior8913]

@@Nova-qx2lm Thank you! It took like 2 hours

[@Kroc-but-October]

RESPECT

[@BizzareScape]

a little late but here are the corrections :D 0:55 Mario triple jump third jump or long jump 0:56 Boss takin damage or thwomp hitting the ground 0:58 landing from triple jump or backflip 1:24 Pipe opening or exiting pipe 2:50 recovering hp 2:56 goomba death pretty close i would say

[@Miyamoto_Jim]

_So long gay bowser!_

[@LatinTrousle]

gai bowsaer

[@Miyamoto_Jim]

@Cerebral Nova of course! Though sadly we had to kick Nobama so I could take his place... never did figure out his last name....

[@J.Diaz23]

Yeah that’s a classic 😂😂😂

[@leo_carlini]

Oh that reference ! ...

[@duplicake]

@@LatinTrousle indeed

[@genorpg8397]

This is probably your best one!!! You’re getting to the skill of @vgr here!!

[@eudaimonistic]

This track is what a SM64 speedrunner hears internally when they actually make it to Bowser for once lmao There's so much sonic density in this composition. I could listen to it a dozen times and hear something new every time. Great remix Victor!

[@benredfield6643]

Except, being a speedrun, they only hear it for 12 seconds xD

[@volt7958]

Except you rarely ever make it there

[@gloving4hire]

yeah it's a befiting tune to Marios quest. Like think of this playing it's drops to a mario anime or ssb trailer

[@dopamixvgm]

Wow. You can really tell the love you have for the game in this mix. You paint such a clear picture of your vision that I feel I could see exactly what you wanted us to see, and feel exactly how you wanted us to feel. Awesome, awesome job. Definitely my new favorite of yours, and I would argue your cleanest, most technically proficient track to date.

[@Vector_U]

Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm glad my efforts came across this way!

[@MarioFan-gh1qj]

1:36 Legit made me tear up. IT'S SO GOOOOD.

[@Mgamerz]

Ive listened to a lot of different koopa's road remixes and this is easily in the top 3. Absolute banger.

[@xxCross2]

This is SICK MAn! I love the direction you took with this track. @1:36 is LIT!

[@Neyo-vo6rt]

best remix i ever heard from super mario

[@masahirosakurai64]

That one dislike is from the mystery goomba.

[@brainbesplit]

Masahiro Sakurai well, TJ *”henry”* Yoshi..

[@duplicake]

No its from bowser... Hes tired of being kalled gay

[@kendreonmotion]

it's from the people who didn't tune in to watch the Super Mario Super show

[@JustinRay-qz9gy]

If you have subwoofers do yourself a favor and play this through them. This shit thumps hard af!

[@Godlysound]

Still criminally under listened to. Vector is my favourite remixer ever

[@savagelysuperior8913]

Dang dude, I'm insanely impressed! This is great! Set on loop for about a 2 hour long job right now!

[@Raceboy66.2]

So much nostalgia! Probably one of the best recommended games to speed run.

[@davecote8026]

awesome!!! I will share this!

[@sethcoleman8423]

The thing I like most about your music is how fateful it is to the source material. Some artist when they remix video game OSTs tend to add sections they make themselves and while that’s cool sometime I feel that it’s way cooler when it feels like the original song. Keep up the good work, can’t wait for the next one. :)

[@sethcoleman8423]

Thanks for the like! :)

[@nyxblackwood9045]

I completely agree! I find that some remixes lay it on a little too thick. It’s refreshing to hear something that feels like the original song but keeping it fresh enough to be something new and unique!

[@tsuzurao7497]

YES

[@Vector_U]

Anyone notice how similar this theme is to the Melee Menu Theme?

[@brianarsuaga5008]

Not before listening to this version, strangely.

[@cristiankoedooder2573]

speaking of please make a melee menu theme remix

[@Lilhajxjk274]

Not really

[@unusualuser4985]

Hey Vector U, I was wondering if you could do something with this in the future? Final Fantasy III (SNES) Music - Vector Theme

[@bbun2968]

Vector U honestly i thought that i clicked on the wrong remix because of that

[@SirRufflez]

Honestly I’m happy my friend recommended Vector U music to me

[@clockcup]

what a nice friend!

[@Miyamoto_Jim]

Meelix wouldn’t have seen it if you hadn’t pointed it out lel

[@Miyamoto_Jim]

hell yeah bro its good music!!! I share with ALL my friends some of these mixes are ACTUALLY the best mixes of that song

[@clipPRmusic]

That was me lol

[@SirRufflez]

Yes, Yes it was

[@PixelWAVeStudios]

This is a favorite in my Amazon Music playlist. This slaps; keep it up!

[@shady_abe381]

listening to this makes me happy i played this in my childhood years. actual goosebumps

[@clipPRmusic]

[@sushi_guylol2644]

[@taboo4011]

Congrats on best electronic vgm remix of the year!

Awesome song like all of you're work... Those have a very particular sensation attached to them! There is so much little sounds and effects everywhere, it's easy to see that you have put a lot of effort in this work... It always motivate me each time a hear something that motivating, but starting is something that I fear a lot! Good job thanks for the awesome song :)

[@eudaimonistic]

Realizing this because of your comment is truly the cherry on the top, thank you for pointing this out!

This is what I like about your remixes. You change the songs so much and put so much work and origional twists on them but yet you stick with the origional theme of the song so damn well!!

We need to get this video to 64 comments by the end of the day! "Mario 3D collection" on the Switch Includes Mario 64, Mario Sunshine, Mario Galaxy 1 & 2. Tentative release date November 10th 2020 *(Because they don't want to release it on Friday the 13th.) All a big guess, but based on rummors and the past.

[@Mac_Omegaly]

@Julio Paulino Yeah, I know. So unreasonable.
