Super Mario Odyssey - New Donk City [Oscilloscope Deconstruction]

[@tzgaming_music]

For anyone who's confused, this song is streamed, but it's separated into multiple layers

[@TheGameBomb]

Oh yeah, it's edited somehow.

[@seppemestdagh6341]

Oh really? I didn't know that!

[@98SE]

Wow I didn't think modern Nintendo games would do this, that just sounds terriblely innefficcient? Why is it done this way?

[@TheGameBomb]

@@98SE My theory is that they could make different versions of 'em like what they did with Sweet Sweet Kingdom.

[@furitty]

@@98SE Because in the game, different instruments start playing based on how many of the 4 musicians you collected in the story (aka if you collect the piano dude, the piano track starts playing), the rest of the game doesn't do this

[@shepshepson]

Never knew that a song like this would have ended up being a deconstruction, I would have thought it was a live recording instead. Very interesfing..

[@dogman15]

Well, it can be both a live recording and multiple tracks all synchronized with each other at the same time. With a click track, you can do that.

[@shepshepson]

@@dogman15 thats pretty cool, thanks for sharing!

[@Spletz]

It is a live recording. In the games files there are multiple channels for different instruments for some reason. Sometimes they have that

[@FukiMakai]

IT IS recorded, but separated in channels, mainly because the channels adds themselves depending on the progress. Only the acoustic guitar sounds like synth.

[@Boney9551]

More dynamic music in games equals more deconstructed videos like these btw, THIS is why you should be excited by that prospect, having music be able to be deconstructed like this is useful to everyone regardless of standing, you love to see it and you get to analyse why you love something, lest me be very analytical about why I love this track rather than my base “it’s neat” approach.

[@mr.junior7880]

I agree! Especially when Nintendo uses deconstructed music in their games! Musical Spoiler alert! Nintendo did this with Super Mario Bros. Wonder where if you stand still, the music will lose some instruments. Didn't like it at first but it kept me playing so I think it's alright!

[@ulime]

@@mr.junior7880 It motivates you to continue playing and exploring!

[@daandanx]

The harmonies from 0:41 onward are so lovely, ah!

[@daandanx]

And oh my god the channel 1 version at 1:35 is very very nice

[@psychopiper8224]

Nintendo did jazz very, very well with several of their Switch releases. It still gives me chills all these years later

[@dogman15]

Channel 1: Piano, tambourine, shaker, and trombones Channel 2: Drumset (brush kit) Channel 3: rhythm electric guitar (left channel), acoustic guitar, jazz guitar (both right channel) Channel 4: Bass guitar Channel 5: Horn section (trumpets and saxophones)

[@hibbiea8841]

Channel 6: Dj Stick scratching

[@dogman15]

@@hibbiea8841There is no channel 6.

[@JoeDaBoi]

I was confused at first, but you got channels 3 and 4 mixed up

[@dsstudios3524]

To hear a rhythm guitar track like that in a Mario game is just so damn cool. Straight out of a Casiopea or T-Square song

[@iratepirate3896]

Japanese jazz fusion is always great

[@jordantfryman6184]

I would recommend T-Square - Sister Marion Freindship - lets not talk about it (might have gotten this title backwards)

[@james_crawford]

Very stevie wonder too

[@NASCARFAN160]

This is the first game on this channel in a while that's made me go WHAT THE FUUUUUUUUCK to this extent, I would have never guessed this game did that, other than the SMB ground theme remix, congrats on a Switch video and a 4K vid!

[@pencileraser521]

Thats impressive! Streamed deconstruction!

[@ChristerMr6414]

HOW IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE TO SEQUENCE Edit:I didn’t realize it said streamed in the desc. THIS IS STILL BS.

[@riley2476]

it is streamed, read the description

[@waguidiallo3332]

Really impressive to see a switch deconstruction. I'm very eager to see more !

[@segaking5846]

Dear god... He's too powerful...

[@photonic083]

feels weird hearing such clean and high quality samples in a deconstruction, after so many n64, snes and gba deconstructions.

[@minembo]

I had no idea that New Donks music was built in layers, I always thought that it was just straight up the master file.

[@JonathanNg.Magician]

i am a pianist and arranger and I transcribed this song when the game first came out. Yesterday, i revisited my arrangement and improved upon it for a full day. then youtube recommend me this video...... my work would be so much easier only I knew there is a video like this.......

[@darriskinggamez4831]

This video is excellent. This one of the more unexpected deconstructions after seeing the Mario kart Wii and Mario Galaxy videos I thought there was nothing else that could top the more rare deconstructions.

[@riley2476]

1:35 sounds like something from a charlie brown christmas

[@caseyf14483]

5:45 "so here's the plan" ahh music

[@maxwellr5251]

1:56 the piano sounds like Mario circuit Snes piano

[@FukiMakai]

Channel 1: piano, tambourine and background trombone section Channel 2: jazz drums Channel 3: bass Channel 4: acoustic guitar (probably sequenced), rhythm electric guitar, melodic electric guitar Channel 5: horns section (saxophones, trombones, trumpets)

[@evanistephani]

Man that horn section on Channel 5 is so damn tasty, those block chord voicings (I think) are just so goood. Not to mention how hard the piano and bass goes, love it

[@Nullsp4ce]

This is new and awesome! layered, adaptive and dynamic :DDD

[@arcdj]

This is so cursed and SO beautiful, I love it so much! I really didn't see it coming, and still don't get why they did this. I actually fired up the game when this video first came out(2 days ago lol), and visited New Donk City to see if I could find any dynamic per-channel volume changes, but couldn't find anything. maybe i missed something. Having the track separated like this comes with the advantage of the developers being able to more dynamically change the flavor of the track, by changing volumes of different channels, reacting to gameplay changes, for example. I couldn't notice anything like this in-game. However, it comes with the disadvantage of added cost on both storage space, because it's FIVE tracks instead of just ONE that need to be stored, and more cost on the CPU, because those FIVE tracks ALSO need to be MIXED in REAL TIME!!1!1 So I have no idea why they did it like this. But it makes this deconstruction possible, which is wicked sweet! ❤

[@arcdj]

i aint reading allat 💀

[@evanistephani]

If you haven't seen it already, its only really used in fresh game where you haven't met the musicians yet. Channel 1 is the base track for daytime, and the other 4 channels represent each musician, so their respective channel is added to the song when you meet them

[@arcdj]

@@evanistephaniLmao thanks, was too young to remember when I first played it I guess lol

[@Kobayeashier11]

Nintendo is beautiful making music, omg, but i don't believe this is able to separate streamed music.

[@warriorrealm9864]

Fun fact in the story New Donk City theme is kind of is deconstructed before getting the band members and during the quest you can gradually hear the theme constructing

[@theultrarealdave3052]

YEAAAAAA i've been waiting for this! Please do more from this game 😄

[@james_crawford]

Channel 4 guitar is very reminiscent of stevie wonder's 'for once in my life'

[@mr.oscilloscope]

I had a feeling this song was dynamic, so this is really cool. Iirc, Nintendo Published games from the Late Wii U-Now fully use streams instead of sequences. You’ll probably going to enjoy BOTW’s Rito Village and MK8DX’s Track Selection Theme.

[@Gavman2105]

Man, Channels 1 and 5, arguably the most recognizable parts of the song, just don't sound complete together. They sound like two streams of music that are just happening to play at the same time, instead of one song. Goes to show that every instrument and player in a song is equally important.

[@definetlynottyleratall4647]

THIS IS SO COOL!!! BEST ONE YET!!!!

[@Maroyakana1]

surprised that this banger only uses 5 channels

[@toniee98]

that's the power of polyphonic channels, my friend!

[@EPOCHGAMER64]

Well, this is crazy but i would love Steam Gardens, either regular or Sherm versions

[@flow185]

Yk I wasn't expecting it to have channels but it makes sense if the song is dynamic

[@TerrapinTales]

So happy to see this finally made! Been looking for a breakdown of the different parts for SO LONG!!

[@fatso6843]

awesome to see a switch deconstruction! hopefully more songs from the wii/wii u/ switch will be coming in the future

[@ShardMan]

Orj, I know you said that it’s streamed. but can you elaborate more on what’s the difference between sequenced music and streamed music, so that people won’t have an aneurysm.

[@Orj_Osc]

Sequenced music is pretty much the equivalent of midis where it can be separated by muting the channels. (It's also accompanied with a soundfont.) Streamed music is like CD music where it's just a single audio file that can't be separated. The video above is a special case, it's streamed but separated in layers thanks to the musicians that you meet throughout New Donk City. So I had the opportunity to make a deconstruction!

[@ThePragmo]

This is so so cool.. I'm very happy right now... I've longed to jam this beautiful ❤️ song.

[@yyakult796]

Amazing. Just amazing. I wonder what programs are utilized to break it all down, but it's amazing all the same.

you said its streamed, but how were you able to separate the channels? still interesting to see how stuff is deconstructed, gives a new perspective to the song!

[@darriskinggamez4831]

I’m wondering the same thing

[@Orj_Osc]

It was already separated in the files.

[@darriskinggamez4831]

@@Orj_Osc now that sparks another question how did you get into the game files?

[@TheBester7]

@@Orj_Osc oh ok. i didnt know they were separated in mario odyssey. my guess is that they made multiple, high quality, tracks play at once instead of having one single track with good quality, which would have increased the total quality

[@Orj_Osc]

@@darriskinggamez4831 I extracted Super Mario Odyssey with Yuzu. It's the only software I know that can extract Switch games. The audio files in this game are located in the "SoundData" Folder.

[@pierson9905]

How did you even do this?? That's so cool! I only thought it possible to get midi-based songs to work

[@coolguycomedy]

This one is split into multiple layers, and so the more musicians you unlock in game, the more tracks play.

[@olleekenberg]

Wow. That's impressive

Dude that is so fucking cool. I didn’t know that this was possible. I’m ok with waiting for a few days for bangers like this. Are there any other songs that could be deconstructed this way. I know it’s streamed, but there are different sections that can be deconstructed.
