Diddy Kong Racing Music: Crescent Island

[IPAColosseum]

My favorite level and song as a kid!

[melonhead0000]

Always my favourite track as a kid. :D

[SESdisciple]

Best track in the game. Best music.

[TheKnightWhoSaidNi]

Why did they stop making games like this? Who the hell decided that everything has to be about space marines or war or both these days? There's just no market for happy, friendly pick-up-and-play games with excellent design anymore. The industry is so cynical and hyper-masculine. I guess consumers dictate the market, and that's what gamers want. A shame.

[legomovieman94]

@TheKnightWhoSaidNi People are so stupid about things like that, it's pathetic that people would rather play monotonous permanently brown-hued gunfests than a well-made game with a varied colour pallette and interesting characters simply because they think the latter is too "kiddie" for them. There are definately some darker games that are good and lighter games that are bad, but it's depressing how people instantly base a game's quality on how "mature" they think it is.

[IPAColosseum]

@TheKnightWhoSaidNi Couldn't have said it better myself!!!

[flooshar]

DAMN! If only more Symphonies performed music like this, just imagine, real instruments!? I would pay to see that! (not saying this is bad, just saying with real instruments it be better)

[PaisaPK916]

this song is so happy :D

[eduardo1600]

one person didnt pass this race !!!

Best game of all times!!!!!!

[Kurayamiblack]

This games music is so awesome it reminds me of how awesome the game itself was. Remembering the game itself reminds me of what life was like back when being alive meant something to me.

Why can't the world be as awesome as it seemed as a kid? ;_;

[FrostYxTree]

hey this is Crunch's home track :D

[GrounderTheRobot]

OOGA BOOGA!

[leahcim998]

[TechieWidget]

Thumbs up if you came here just because of Clovernoodle's Demoman Oooga Booga. :D

[Flodder450]

[TheStorz76]

[rovert40]

@TheStorz76 Yup! Before he turned bad. :D

[nintendude8]

KABOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM

[wildcatmatt30]

one of the best levels

[halowut3]

lol when i wasa kid i thought this was the most badass song in the game

[pikminlover72]

Rare is like 25% of what made the N64 so good. they need to comeback.

[DBZmusicboy01]

@pikminlover72 nope :) %50...without them..imagine what games we would be playing..

[AntonioAndLesley408]

this music makes me wanna dance when am racing on crescent island or watching the credits

[jelizan]

I swear, games with music like this are largely responsible for the musical talent I have today. Just listening to them as you playing for hours. really builds a child's rythmic ability

[therealMrA]

@jelizan No kidding! My music appreciation is HUGE now, after listening to this tune and many others over and over at 8 years old. Ignoramuses have no idea how important video games can really be.

[villevn]

@jelizan A very interesting point you've got there! :) Like man, I've been listening to vg music all my life, so it's no wonder that certain kinds of stuff gets embedded into your brain and musical ability :D I'm pretty sure that certain kinds of melody structures that I tend to use come straight from video games, even though I can't always trace the source. So all those years of playing games as a kid...totally worth it on more levels than one! ;D

[drag0nfis7]

@jelizan Haha, your comment made me laugh since I am a metal drummer but I love these songs!

[jlhughes122]

before conker turned bad

[jelizan]

You mean grew up = )

[funimationdbz7]

one of my favorite music of all time in diddy kong racing.

[wildcatmatt30]

@funimationdbz7 no the best music of all time

[NicholasMDS]

Nostalgic.*-*

[AlanWarpZone]

The both companies should to have sonthing to put this one on Nintendo´s VC and X-Box live... will be cool

[pjthekilla]

HAAAAAA i wish.

[pjthekilla]

dam i cant stop listening 2 this song. ITS HELLA TIGHT!!!

[fandeevanescence]

I LOVE CRESCENT ISLAND!!! =D

[MassHypnosis211]

hold on a second, is this based on the crescent island music from pilotwings 64?

[fandeevanescence]

I think Dave Wise creates the best sounds of the world and this is my favorite song from Diddy Kong Racing, I remember my past when I played this game loved! = D

[nawaf10soccer]

This music is very very very cool 5 stars this music really really really should have been in brawl

[Ascension44]

ya me too fight for it to be put on VC

[marioandsonic]

I wish they would release this on Virtual Console...

[metaXzero]

Ditto. DS port was a waste.

Too bad Conker and Banjo can't be on Nintendo platforms currently (the one thing keeping this off the VC). :/

[TheInevitableHulk]

@marioandsonic Microsoft owns rights to Banjo now

[Fishmon14]

@marioandsonic

Thankfully I have an original cartridge :D

[ImLordRevan]

NICE

[patsupfan]

imgaine how awesome old super nintendo and/or nintendo 64 music would sound if remixed with REAL instruments... this would be a good song for bari sax players to practice their chromatics on.

[Ascension44]

they do that! look up sumthin like nintendo orchestra

[TayobkTailz]

this one is very uplifting!! and with this course, it helps cuz you have to keep on shooting and dodging missiles! love this theme!

[roshipower]

lol this is an awesome track!

[miiiimn]

とても懐かしい*

ここからバンジョー　コンカーが独立？

[LukeDavidTennant]

there's games like this one where the music gives it the fun and lastability factor, thanks for uploading this =D

[77Evilgenius77]

I would realy like it if you were able to download some of this music on a mp3.

[XYZsquad]

How TT was saying the name of the track, it sounded like he was calling it Christmas Island

[Ninjendo92]

Ah this track is one of my favourites! It's red balloon heaven! =D

[jdragon411]

i don't like to be rude but this is my 2nd least favorite music

[Alan8tor]

how did you get this?

[Mysteria5]

This music is really cool and uplifting! Unforgetable.

[MPMlynk]

I remember typin JUKEBOX in cheats just to hear all the songs of tis game :D

[nickster93]

sweeeeeet,

hey can you give me the link to download the mp3?

[Sharief1996ComradeKK]

I have ALL of them...

[Sharief1996ComradeKK]

hey southernpickle, how did you make this video?

[southernpickle]

1. I downloaded the mp3.

2. I found a picture of DKR online.

3. I put them together in Windows Movie Maker (I think all Windows computers come with that already installed).

4. I saved it as a movie file and uploaded it to Youtube as you see it now.

And that's it.

[Sharief1996ComradeKK]

thanks!!!! I'm really happy to know it!

[tconman31]

@southernpickle But at what point did you throw in the nostalgia? Oh, that came pre-instaled. YESH! YEEAAASH!!!

[LeonardoTMNT393]

all of these songs are amazing!! :D
