Mario on Steel Drums

[Commando686]

this sounds like it would be on a water level with sand and shit ya know?

[yoshimasterleader]

brings me back to Super mario 64

[steeltropics]

Pretty cool

[SomewhatSuitable]

Wow they have amazing stage presence @dbx1995 hahaha true

[DBX1995]

At this instrument it sounds better then all other. Ok I the nostalgic version of the Atari-console is the best but in real this is it.

Seems like Bowser has 17 YouTube accounts. Kick him off! :-)

[pinziextreme]

cool, Amazing!!!!

[MobileTaz]

All I can say is WOW! I thought I had a favorite rendition of SMB in orchestral.. But this one just stole the crown! And it's gonna be tough to beat! Congrats guys, this is hands down, no bullshit, the most awesome sounding version ever made!!

[johngam77]

That`s amzon , cool

[SergeantLuke]

Literally the way the song was meant to be played!

[UnadoptedGem]

Looks like Wii Music got a graphics overhaul.

[UnadoptedGem]

Looks like Wii Music got a graphics overhaul.

[mswinhoe]

this is all about the (non-steel) drums, awesome!

[Apoorv12345ify]

Fukn awesome beat man!!

[vman7700]

This was the sound, if Mario where from Jamaica

[xTurquoiseGlazex]

@vman7700 This would be the soundtrack, if Mario was Jamaican. SPELL CHECKED!

A decent education never hurt anyone. ;)

[1afjrotc]

I need to get one of these instrument gods!

[honestbutugly]

takes 5 guys to do what one can do solo. dont exactally get it

[LumaMagic]

that's what i call an "epic win"!

[borgiejr24]

urge to play mario getting stronger!

[domingoiii55]

if you dont like this song ur nuts!!

[1afjrotc]

The drummer is awesome!

[Torterra899]

@1afjrotc Which one? xD

[1afjrotc]

@Torterra899 Haha I'm just saying:)

[kluckerson]

Why didn't they play the mario sunshine theme, which was originally played with steel drums? :I

[Tarko5000]

This kicks ass

[sivadepilif]

good, but the drums are out of the style

[darkninja0200]

awesome *A*

[MrRsmaster31]

i feel like the mario theme is for a cruise i mean listen to it its like so calm... =)

[gurlynd4]

When I finally holiday in the Caribbean, I'm going to be sure a steel drum band is within earshot of my lounge sesh on a beach and request they play this. =)

[Sockfetishot]

Donde puedo obtener musica de calypso, es maravillosa

[putitinthick]

the drummer is gold

[TheMonkeydick]

you guys are bad ass

[cacr1818]

el sonido del calypso me transporta a alguna isla desierta del caribe, con palmeras gigantes, arena blanca y agua turquesa, esta musica me alegra, me pone muy feliz

[XxXZeroChanceXxX]

I bet the people were like wtf at first haha

[tyrizzone]

The first stage music from SMB 3 and SMW would sound great on live steel drums.

[horsesluvhat]

you guys are amazing!

[FergusMcFroy]

the very best version

[futzi7]

Great job! Can you download this song anywhere? Or does anyone know whether there is a CD with steel drum coversongs?

[AManandHisPan]

good job..the tempo is a bit slow, though...but if you wanna see a really awesome arrangement of this tune, check out my take on this tune in my profile...

[HowlsInTheDistance]

Epic!! I remember I tried to get everyone to do this in my steel drum class back in high school, but alas, I was the only Mario fan in my class... :(

[THEFIRSTJEBUS]

@HowlsInTheDistance

[HarryJenningsTV]

This in charlie sheens eyes is bi-winning

[wawaman99]

Excellent Job!!

[Mike20Kproductions]

We won't stop until we have this song on every instrument known to man.

[RyanFalls]

@Mike20Kproductions I found a video of someone playing it on a banana, so I guess other things too

[tyguy920]

@Mike20Kproductions its about time someone said that hahahahaa

[THEREALCGHOST]

@Mike20Kproductions that's what I was thinking lol. What's next Mario on the Zither?

[caroblast]

@Mike20Kproductions But this is more accurate then on any other instruments

[JBantha]

@Mike20Kproductions dude! you should hear the stones and sticks version! It's so Prehistoric!

[sallyesq]

[camman007]

I've always pictured the Mario theme played by steel drums, this is perfect

[b0uGhTbYChrist]

[biglavignero4ever]

[NLubert]

That was the coolest thing ever

[narutobot534]

[Iamyou64]

Steel drums are perfect for this theme

[JordanIsAlive]

[ultrabot90]

Anyone knows who played this? Please share! o.o

[cpbeaven]

@ultrabot90 kids at waynflete school , portland maine

[panr317]

@cpbeaven were the pans made by a certain longtime panist and tuner from South Brooksville?

[Songwriter4God]

@cpbeaven Hey, do you have the sheet music for this? I wanna learn it on my steel drum! Thanks! :P

[alpacasful]

@Songwriter4God i just wanna learn to play steel drum, but im with u at that!

[aerickgomez]

@ultrabot90 I don't recall because it's been awhile and I'm currently in Afghanistan where there is no pan in front of me. But the first few notes starting on tenor pan are, small D, big A, big F#, Bb, E# I could be wrong about that one though, litle c, Bb, big A, little d and I can't remember the rest that will get you started though.

[HellaCoptah78]

@ultrabot90

Cecil Gardner - Drum set

Sam Fillinger - Tenor

MIles Beaven - mid

Gabe Bornstein - mid

Peter Schnell - Bass

[ultrabot90]

@HellaCoptah78 Ah, thank ye :D

[ultrabot90]

[TheLombaxGirl]

My dream is to be able to play this just so I can go to NYC and play it like I saw a guy do. It was cool.

[elgiv94]

[masteralaric]

@MrRabbitBlack HURRAY FOR NOSTALGIA!

~Pushes Atari out of way and turns on NES...~

[NaYru1337]

I just bought a SNES with Super Mario Land and Super Mario Allstars. When I'm older and got some kids they will play Super Mario too ;) I hope the SNES and NES Generation will never die!

[NickyDark17]

I'm totally hooking up my SNES now..

[fortworth07]

[MrpotatoChips]

there just isn't a better Instrument to play that song on then the steel drums.

[Gecko7291971]

Almost sounds like some you'd hear in a "Girls Gone Wild" commercial

[OVER9000and1000000]

@Gecko7291971 it does ..... when then agien mario just wanted some princess boobies so you never know

[Harrawesome]

[slgion]

[wow0806]

should be how they play the tune...

[drweth89]

haha one of the coolest instruments ever

[SilleeSpyder]

I always thought this song was written with steel drums in mind -ever since I first heard it.

[bloodvein3]

i would love to play the bass steel drums again. i used to in 7th grade.

[SPS148669]

Many Mario games have steel drums in their music.

[stevethepocket]

I was at a steel band concert and for some reason it hit me that this is a perfect match. So I just had to hunt one down to see if I was right.

I was. :D

[AcousticBoy704]

The Drummer was jamming! :P

[ccalamuss]

this should be the song for peach beach on mario kart!!!

[Cynabunnie]

Sad thought of the day: Eventually there will be a generation who have no idea what this song is.

[footballlineman1]

@Cynabunnie its been 27 years i think...and no sign of quitting.

[ShadowFishey]

@Cynabunnie

D: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[NickyDark17]

@Cynabunnie

A lot of the kids in my class had no idea what I was singing when we were doing jumping drills in gym...

i was singing the Super Mario Theme.. :( It's happening.

[AlexanderT21]

@Cynabunnie Lol eventually Mario is gonna be seen as an old mans thing :P

[NatureTome]

@Cynabunnie That's gonna be a sad day when no-one recognizes the video games that started it all.

[jocstarbunny]

@Cynabunnie actually... I think it's more of the image of mario will live on... Sadly... The tune itself may not :\

[eslubin]

@Cynabunnie we're not talking beethoven here honey

lol

[fedeZ2]

@Cynabunnie yeah some day, but it still has couple of centuries haha

[ShoegunSlimm]

@Cynabunnie dude i already feel old some kids today dont know who Mega Man is..........can u believe that, man im getting old

[pejnismiggle]

@Cynabunnie Dude, As of Today, Mario has been around for 25 years =|

I don't think they'll forget. sure they won't know his origins, but they DO know who Mario is.

[reeding]

@Cynabunnie some things just won't happen!

[goldenavatar1984]

@Cynabunnie I don't know, after hundreds of years classical music still seems to be going strong, I'm sure this will survive too

[ShadowCrashed81]

@Cynabunnie As long as there is nintendo they'll know the song.

[UzimakiKid]

@Cynabunnie

I promise as a 16 year old kid, that I will raise my kids to know this song. haha we will keep this alive :]

[awesomedrummerdustin]

@Cynabunnie but that generation isnt us

[adwadle]

@Cynabunnie

NEVER!

[firegeneral17]

@Cynabunnie NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[13Sam1]

@Cynabunnie You ruined my day!!! =(

[ultrabot90]

@Cynabunnie I think this will one day be taught in music universities, or even schools, as history.

That'll probably be the same day as the one you speak of =p

[Fon7i3ee]

@Cynabunnie

nooo wayy!!

[meatspining]

@Cynabunnie no, not at all. there is so many nintendo fans as well as a constant flow of mario games. stop trying to reminisce about overrated mario nostalgia as if its gonna die

[tulsatrash]

@Cynabunnie time marches on.

[dragongame2]

mario: F^ck delfino, lets go to jamaica

[Justhomester]

@dragongame2 why would u go to jamaica?

[dragongame2]

@Justhomester I wont mario goes because this sound jamiaca, and tropical

[Justhomester]

@dragongame2 well its not jamaican. it's trinidadian. the instrument is from trinidad and tobago. so thats where you should go.

[dragongame2]

@Justhomester how ever somewhere in the caribbean, but super mario from nintendo goes to delfino a island and trindad is not a island so thats why I say jamaica

[Justhomester]

@dragongame2 dude ur a fuckin retard. trinidad is an island dippy. its where the steel "drums" were made. and im from there. so dont tell me shit bout it thinkin u knw more. cuz u dont. retard. but fine go to jamaica and they'll probably shoot you. have fun.

[dragongame2]

@Justhomester wel sorry I tought it was a island and my teacher told me, bad teacher. and yes steel drums are from trinidad awesome instrument I like a steel drum but what ever, They got steel drums everywhere so I think also in jamaica,

and for the last time I dont go to jamaica MARIO FROM NINTENDO GOES TO

[Justhomester]

@dragongame2 ok good job

[Nicky10major]

@Justhomester dont dis my country just because its safer than yours so shut the fuck up

[Justhomester]

@Nicky10major buller man shut up. batty boy.

[Nicky10major]

@Justhomester fuck off mother fucker

[Justhomester]

@Nicky10major fag go fuck yourself. i find it funny that you said i dissed your country and that its safer than yours. i know quite a few jamaican families and one of my best friend's is jamaican. and he always tells me that trinidad is safer. so shut up retard. cuz if u were reading u would have realised that all i said is that the pan is trinidadian. fool. now go to school and learn something.

[Nicky10major]

@Justhomester i know you were saying that the steel pan is trinidadian and i agree with you. It is my favourite instrument and i play the double tenor but in the midst of it you never had to dis jamaica.

[Justhomester]

@Nicky10major i wasnt dissin jamaica. it was a joke. to be honest they'll prob shoot him in trinidad also. but i apologise due to it being a bad joke. its just that the kid was pissin me off so i was tellin him to go somewhere where he should die. i mean let's face it, knowing jamaica and trinidad, its really easy to die in both places. but he wa tellin me that trinidad isnt an island. so i had to shut him up.

[TheCursedChosen1]

@dragongame2 LMFAO

[XDarkxGirlx4everX]

skillz

[ShadowDeus]

sounds exactly like the theme good job!!!

here we gooooo!!!!

[zharcos]

AWESOME!!!

[0SukMunky0]

"Itsa me, mon!"

[Ecoll009]

wow.

[ReverendRatspeed]

I think this is the first time I've ever heard this theme, which in actuality is a calypso-styled piece, played with the proper instruments for that type of band! Excellent job.

[MaggotSoldier666]

@CTAT98

***Jamaican :D
