Music: Donkey Kong Country 2 Forest Interlude

[stevenashrules0]

A rapper made a song using this

SOL - Falling Stars

LOOK IT UP IT NEEDS VIEWS

[XXGameViperXX]

Does anyone know of a way where I can use a music sampler or editor of some kind to put this soundtrack into other games? Maybe through a hack? Such as Marvel vs Capcom 2?

[jairj27]

Es una canción excelente para relajarse y escuchar plácidamente

[ronsano]

Lets face it....life as a WHOLE was better in the 90s

[HIEM3W]

Thnx Chuggaaconroy



[ggfaceslaps]

@HIEM3W oh wow that autist has good taste in music? Who woulda thought

[HIEM3W]

@ggfaceslaps ikr

[HIEM3W]

@ggfaceslaps ikr

[MrZeberfuckingdee]

finally made it to this level after a week of completing the previous levels....i almost don't want to finish it, the music is that good!

[bboyEBD]

back when games were an art form rather then a money making object like today

[Feulingnightmare]

@bboyEBD some games do keep the art part still in mind (I.E Sotc, Ico and a few others) but in the most part you are correct, it's sad really to see that. But alas that's the way the world works.

[WatchfulCat]

@101nibs I applaud you for going so easy on her.

[bren320]

longing 

[ScaryGamesRUs]

Damn, this is so peaceful. I hope I fall asleep to this and have dreams about jumping through the forest forever..

[Justdreaming058]

The memories! These times were good.



[advancedpillow]

David Wise is amazing. The man performed musical miracles with the SNES sound capabilities. 

[unterbawr]

this is perfect when im stoned..... my god , what a relaxing feeling

[MrAlcazar]

Ah, the 90s. Things just seemed happier then. Growing up sucks sometimes.

[hentaisexfreak4life1]

awesome tune here wow cool indeed

[XFunkatronic]

I feel so nostalgic by this, even when I never played this game! :V

[SerenFilms]

This music still sends shivers down my spine.

[TheCokainftw]

Awww shit, i broke the repeat button

[ifeverthelordwashere]

Reminds me of Golden Sun music.

[Scorpionshok]

This song plays when when something epic happens. It becomes peacefull and all is well

[SonicFan14]

This song alone makes me want to play the game.

[xPythox]

Perfect time of year for this timeless track.

[klario7]

This track is Burned into my head since i entered the level ;)

[AlanKnightCohol]

im an up and coming rapper recently made a beat to this song seeking copyrights to publish new song vote for it. Im Alan knight cohol!

[prepare2fire]

Who the fuck conjured these fucking unrealistic tunes. They are almost too good to exist, yet, I just fucking herd them.

[khmaster12]

@prepare2fire That would be David Wise =)

[otakugirl999]

I nostalgia'd. 

[101nibs]

I brought out the ol' snes the other day.

My Girlfriend asked, "Why are you playing that rubbish for?"

Broke up with her the next day.

[jaycruz12]

@101nibs got nothing but respect for u bro....

[101nibs]

@jaycruz12 Thanks man =)

[benjiskhan]

@101nibs

you should've dumped her right away though.

[kirydawg]

@101nibs i would probably do something similar. 

[GreenGiantShit]

@101nibs

Sure you did.

[latintiger]

@101nibs XD wow! ill do the same

[SlamVook]

@101nibs Good riddance.

[chucknorrisftw1]

@101nibs good man

[DaKoopaRulz]

@101nibs good for you......... ?

[SonnyJamesJefferson]

This game honestly IS my childhood. It reminds me of the 90s almost more than anything besides the car styles at the time. Let's all bring the 90s back!

[crawlingkitty]

Childhood, right here. DKC 2 owns all else

[YungTweakSpade]

Bramble Blast And Forest Interlude

[Protectobot]

@YungTweakSpade EXACTLY! The other music is good, but you mentioned the best tracks in the game :)

[Boxybrown1991]

This is definitely a fall/autumn track right here. Outside walking with the chilly air and leaves blowing everywhere. Hell yeah!

[dmhuua]

Some of these songs are transcendental. DKC2 had such an amazing soundtrack.

[TheDaniel19995]

I kinda like this song but I just dont want to hear because it reminds me like I was in the jungle with animals, lost my parents, lost everything, except my clothes of course lol

man! Lost in the jungle at sunset its so sad for me ;(

[YoungGemma]

Oh myGod. this is the most fresh tune ever! AWWWW I miss it so much man for real. and i know all of you feel the same way! These days they dont take time to make the music rite for games.

[dman435869]

Damn these were good times, weren't they? When you were just a child, with not a care in the world, playing the Donkey Kong Country games.

[tailslover161]

i love playing the game

[printthelegends]

@pessoaUtube Yikes! Get your hands on this game. I'd say it's one of the best 2D platformers ever made. At least top ten. I'd actually never played it until just about a year and a half ago (was a Genesis kid in the mid-90s), and I thought it was so good, and held up so well that it almost made me want to go back in time and trade in my copy of Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Almost.

[bogercs]

Now for an interlude!

[zzyzx0788]

Is there a better video game music composer than David Wise?...

Well yea Koji Kondo. But STILL. You are a very very very close second.

[mellesms]

i fucking completed it a year ago ( 102 % completed ) i've never been so happy, now i have found a vid on youtube where a guy completes the game ( not 102 % but still ) in 1:30 hour, i was fucking pissed when i saw that xD!

[phillicheesestake]

ah I remember I would wake up and play this game for the 15 minutes of free time i could before I had to go to school :).this game will remain a part of my childhood forever.

[northweststyle]

Good jam on sunday mourning!!!!

[xkibit]

essa musica me faz refletir mts coisas que se passaram na minha vida.

[SilentOne46]

I wish I was alive when this game came out. Damn sure it would've been fucking fun to be one of those kids that had one of the most greatest feelings playing DK.

[pornokrat]

One of my favorite songs in DKC2. Why doesn't DKC returns have such songs?

[mellesms]

still my favorite game,

[ElParcero7]

Look At Those Spooky Trees With Face!

[RobbDeep]

I actually made lyrics to this beat when i was a kid, & when i downloaded it on my emulator i realized i still had them memorized. I wear this games soundtrack is better than 95% of the stuff played nowadays.

[oblivion3992]

simply- DIVINE!

[Helptheherd]

there was a lot of us back then- our generation had true passion for video games :D

[SilentOne46]

@Helptheherd

Yeah, damn true. That generation was epic.

Compared to games today, I'd rather play most of these old, awesome games.

[TheCaterkiller]

Hell Yes It brings back so many memorys

[JWiLLfoReaL]

love this music. brings back memories when in grade school.

[loudspeaker08]

how can i record music from the game so that i have it on my PC?

[MrAlekz]

@loudspeaker08 youtube-mp3,org you can download the mp3 off any youtube video

[loudspeaker08]

@MrAlekz oh, seems like you got me wrong. i want to know if there is a way to connect the cartridge to my PC, so that i can record music right off it.

[MrAlekz]

@loudspeaker08 oh, I know if you can do that

[MadMetalSlayer]

goddamn ghost ropes -__-

[66Deidara]

a los 3 que no les gusto esta cancion estan bien imbeciles

[Enzo2284]

Does anyone remember how cool it was to be the spider on a stage with this music? It was one of the most difficult to get the DK coin at then end..Good times :)

[Enzo2284]

This was my favorite DKC2 soundtrack. I really miss this game...

[MegaSevenify]

I speak for millions when I say this song brings back not only the memories, but the emotions and joy we had when we played this game back in the day (i still play to this day, too, as many of you still do I'm sure). What great times. The soundtrack to this game ( and all of the SNES DKs) is just phenominal. I absolutely love the soundtracks and the series of the Donkey Kong country games. Honestly I didn't play past N64 version, and I am not sure I played it much (if at all) as i do not own t

[Juippi996]

@MegaSevenify I agree with you. Donkey Kong Country 2 is best game ever! : )

[Henkco]

@cloudyboy94 You're pretty perverted to hear that. Because I can't hear it.

[zr1drifter]

Rare use to kick ass. Now they are barely on anyone's radar and all the good employees that worked there are gone. I'll always remember Rare the way they were in the 90's when I was a kid and they kicked ass with Nintendo.

[YourOwnEnvy]

This is the kind of song I like to blast out of my car when I'm driving around. Sets everyone else in the same serene mood. :)

[MrYeahbuddyyy]

It's cool to see that so many people have an appreciation for this music!

[TheDUDE101GOOD]

brings back memories when we werent expose to a world run by assholes trying to rule the world.

[Nettohunden619]

@TheDUDE101GOOD AMEN TO THAT!!!!

[darthstew666]

@TheDUDE101GOOD If all of humanity was exposed to the DKC2 soundtrack there would be world peace

[SZF123456]

@TheDUDE101GOOD It's been like that since we, as a species, have had a mental capacity to hold thought and the ability to process information.

[kreathure]

SUPER GENIAL DONKEY KONG COUNTRY ES LO MEJOR TENGO MI SUPER NINTENDO QE TIENE 24 AÑOS Y ES DE LO MEJOR LO AMO Y TENGO INTANCO Y SUPER BUENO TAMBIEN MI DONKEY KONG 1 2 Y 3 Y ESTA CANCION ES GENIAL LO UNICO QE NO ME GUSTA ESKE DK3 NO ES COMO EL CLASICO

[Aeroweth]

They nailed EVERY tune in this game.

[Theofficialrevenge]

This is not epic, this is LEGENDARY

[TheBlackYousa]

Dave Wise's music is the Nintendo equivalent of Sonic's Jun Senoue.

Now. Picture them working together.

[jddaman1337]

@TheBlackYousa

Well considering all Sonic music is terrible,sounds awful.

[BassistBill1988]

I just wish these songs weren't walking around with the Scarlet Letter that reads, "I am from a video game." There is a lot of talent in them, but only nerds will ever know it. True, I can't picture many times in daily life where you'd listen to this over your favorite band, but there's something to be said for how perfect it fits the setting it was composed for.

[SaraHussain]

@BassistBill1988 Meh, I like to listen to instrumental music whilst working. Although I wouldn't listen to this over my favourite band, I would certainly pick those over a lot of modern mainstream crap- Lady Gaga springs to mind, as one of her awful songs was on the radio yesterday.

But maybe I'm a nerd- if music sounds good to me, even if it's from a game, I'll listen to it xD

[isladboyz70]

Beutifull.

[exiztnexit]

im gona cry motherfucker

this is pure chilhood

[andymolotov]

3 people didnt have a childhood! DKQ best DKG ever!

Of all the levels of DKQ the one that stuck in my mind was the one that had this song...

[Zaosin1337]

@andymolotov DKQ?

[andymolotov]

@Zaosin1337

Diddy's Kong Quest

I know the game more from this name than DKC

[vampirekiller17]

I WANT DKC RETURNS 2 WITH ALL THIS SONGS !!!

[nickquik]

Every time i hear the xylophone sound come in i think about the first kill when you take off running. AHH!

[BIgGary1000]

Memories

[SD2014ftw]

@BIgGary1000 Jesus christ memories indeed :´) Nostalgic as shit. My memorie bring me back to when I was 6 years old (im 20 now). It was a sunny day and the sunlight were glacing through the windows. I were about to go to my grandfathers for a dinner and I were sitting and playing this level hearing this music. The feelings are unexpressable, its realy amazing how the mind works! Im close to crying but as it fills me with a realy realy happy feeling I can´t :D! lol to much info ok get it xD

[BIgGary1000]

@SD2014ftw gotta agree i remeber being 6 ( 17 now ) abd playin this with my bro and we found it on the wii he has all 3 of em and for some reason we can beat 1, but number 2 and 3 are kicking our asses it's sad when we were 7 and 11 we could beat it but now being 17 and 21 we cant

[xXElMorgoXx]

shits good when ur high

[IstillOwnAvcr]

@xXElMorgoXx haha, I thought I was the only one who listened to DKC music while high.

[xXElMorgoXx]

@IstillOwnAvcr dude i listen to everything imaginable hahah. i hate to say this but next time you do it watch alejandro by lady ggaga shits freaky

[akiratrooper]

Am I the only one who's gonna make a reference to the perfume?

[CloudOfDarkness9999]

This is my second favorite music. Losing only to Stickerbrush :D

[milosrale]

Congrats, my favorite song too ^_^

[Goldsbro]

Also, Thumbs up to this comment if you can feel this theme play for someone telling their dark past. I'm dead ass. I can see Cloud Strife tell his past and this song plays.

[Goldsbro]

Hardest DKC Game of all... but the best music.

[mewinmew2]

i feel like im floating away

[toatatoa]

every year when we have the first snow I listen to the donkey kong country 2 soundtrack

[AlvinsHarmonica]

Bramble Blast is overrated

[mark1235600]

guys imagine this in a real forest, dark like in Halloween, with the light of the moon, chilly air, noise of the air, trees,  awsome man, just sweet VIDEOGAME EVEEEER!!!!

[ResEve]

@mark1235600 That's the way I always picture it! Being one with nature, in an October like month cold breezy beautifulness in the wilderness

[fourtywpm]

@mark1235600 this comment just about made me cry : D Yeah that's awesome. And sounds of the animals all around you. Ah, so sweet.

[ledgend209]

i really do reamember this feeling when i was a little mankey

[NeonSolar]

Such a masterpiece.. full of memory and nostalgia.. Thanks to my Nintendo WII I can purchase these fantastic SNES classics from the WII market to revive the nostalgic moments provided by these amazing masterpiece tracks.

*Runs downstairs and switches WII console on, selects Donkey Kong Country 2 from the memory card list and plays*

[verseoners]

This is the best fucking forest interlude hands down... a world class piece

[Zaberath]

~!~!!NOSTALGIA OVERLOAD!!!!~!~

[GigaFlare777]

One of the best music tracks ever!

[Atosag]

3 folks are Crocodiles and Cranky

[BKFan342]

Biohazard is the best karter ever. He beat the bikes with a kart.

[FaytUzamaki]

Forest Interlude = instant orgasim 

[richtea87]

One word: Perfect...... (still speechless)....

[zedrein18]

You will get chills up your spine if you mod your Super NES to have digital audio out and then connect it to a good, clean power receiver to nice speakers. You will be astounded that a console that is more than 20 years old sounded so damn good. May the Super NES live on FOREVER!!!

[KaneShear1991]

working on mp3-ing these songs

interested?

[mobyfanpsg]

@KaneShear1991 yes

[Crackmandan]

@KaneShear1991 Very interested!

[Neverborn86]

Never has a song had such a strong impact on me as this one. I've heard it so many times since my childhood and it still has the power to instantly take me away.

[Waterfall64]

Rare did a really great thing with the soundtrack for the DKC trilogy. Would have been pretty easy to make plinky-plink-plonk music like so many other side scrollers of the time, but they went for major drama instead. Beautiful.

[OnThatPowder]

Heavy!! This tune makes my brain bleed

[asnlunatic]

This belongs in a porno.

[tauwilltriumph]

@asnlunatic Oh my

[poisedmind]

my favorite game since I'm 5 years old. <3

How I would love to get my nes back... :(

[Waterfall64]

@poisedmind Go on eBay and buy a SNES and this. Or get a Wii and you can download this (along with the two DKCs, and a whole host of other SNES classics) from the Virtual Console.

[Ajapam34]

@poisedmind emulate it or something.

[stephanie8779]

very cool music and I love it

[FreEfalliSh]

old times of my childhood!!

so amazing for me, beautiful melody.

i think i will remember this songs my whole life

just beautiful <33

[jimmyboy38024]

This song is amazing. I loved this song in my childhood and even as an adult it is awesome. Thanks for posting!

[scooeys835]

ahh anyone who likes the donkey kong music is a cool ass mother fucker

[midnightjay13]

@scooeys835 yep. my stupid ass mom thinks im not like cool.

[TheStratostar]

@scooeys835 LMAO

[CloudOfDarkness9999]

@scooeys835 Thanks :D

[123doomdoom]

@scooeys835 There is a person i know who thinks Donkey kong country 2 music is boring.

[Sabin06]

@scooeys835 I listen to DK 1 and 2 Music does that make me a cool ass mother fucker??

[Henkco]

@scooeys835 Thanks. Same to you. :)

[Nettohunden619]

@scooeys835 Glad to be one of those coll ass motherfuckers then...Reminds me of my entire childhood and I even remixed it twice...3 days ago, i laid in my bed and looked out of the window. It was all foggy, there was a full moon and it was behind some dead trees...reminds me so much of Web Woods :3

(Cool Story, Bro)

[GeneralGrim909]

Only a couple more weeks for returns, the one Wii game that any gamer with common sense shouldn't pass up. Its not being pushed so lets hope it sees good sales..I really really hope retro gave some of the music that melancholic feel, the music was DKC imo

[TempestDust]

3 poor individuals must have had a soundcard failure while watching this clip. That, or their hearing is impaired.

[HiMyNameIsHish]

@TempestDust i support that

[bendario]

How in the world were there 3 people that didn't like this? I mean... WHAT!?

[TheDWJProductions]

These are times that I wish music like this would play as I explored the forest.

[YourOwnEnvy]

Gorgeous.

[HiMyNameIsHish]

WHO. THE. FUCK. DISLIKED THIS!?!?!?

[Aureliants]

@HiMyNameIsHish king k.rool and two minions

[mrdanyo1223]

when rareware was good. when it had that nostalgic feeling to it. this type of music is what made rareware a LEGEND. from killer instinct to dkc to dkc2 e.t.c rareware never let us down with a bad game. kept us playing all night. now.... its pure bullshit. FUCK u microsoft u ruined a good company. but u know good things dont last forever. RIP rareware thanks for the memories

[MariusMMS]

I love listening to this in the night when it's raining outside. It's trippy. And amazing.

[kB5ka]

Awesome porn music. No, I mean, AWESOME.

[silentf0e]

@kB5ka

....

[stephanie8779]

i love this theme is wonderful

and peaceful

[askjiir]

How can a mere platformer have so amazing music?

[Pootie88]

@askjiir cause this isnt just a "mere" platformer, this is Donkey Kong fuckin COUNTRY!! a staple of 90's 16-bit gaming

[askjiir]

@Pootie88

I know. But it's not usual for platformers to have music like that.

It's not typical in the genre. Not that I complain though.

[Pootie88]

@askjiir dude sonic, mario? all the classic platformers have great soundtracks

[askjiir]

@Pootie88

Yes, but this music is like something you can play in another setting then video games. Like clubs, bands or whatever and people wouldn't know it was music from a video game. It has such a mature quality about it.

[Guz999]

@Pootie88 None of those can be compared to Donkey Kong country, especially 2.

[komakoma876]

This tune is eerily beautiful...especially since the level was rather spooky. If the forest could sing, this would be it's symphony...It's sad, but at the same time peaceful and uplifting...

[Pootie88]

hard to choose between this and bramble but i'd have to go with this track, love the percussion
