Rockface Rumble Mashup is tuned one half step above Mining Melancholy, hence some parts sounding horrible in terms of pitch. If you could find a way to tune Rockface Rumble down a half-step, they would blend together very nicely and harmoniously.
By itself you can hear what its ment to be trying to get out, but it just needs a little help, and a bit more editing to get everything to fall into place.
The 2nd top comment explained it best obviously. You have to have good music ears to even comprehend what's technically taking place. In other words, it's best to let music take control instead of one taking control of it as done here. I admire your admiration of this creative music Nintendo has provided for us game users but let's not misinterpret one's work which should not be altered.
My first favorite music was DKC music (since it was the first video game I played). This remix is pretty good for showing the similarities, but it sounds kinda off. Great none-the-less.
Oh my God! This is just pare awesomeness! It's like mixing 2 kinds of chocolates to get a better one! I mean, this beats everything, the drums from rockface and the mining sounds from melancholy just fit together goddamn perfect! I can't even begin to describe how awesome it is! The only downside is the 15 sec middle piece that sounds like gurtars out of tune, but rest is just so damn awesome! I'm getting chills down through my spine into my fucking legs! This is... This is... AWESOME!
Although the two parts are similar in melody, I don't think they blend well together. The different keys cause dissonance which isn't too pleasant. If they were in a more harmonizing, compatible key, then I'm sure it would fit a lot more nicely. Still an interesting observation nonetheless.
Why didn't you change Rockface Rumble's main melody down to d minor? Would be only a difference of one halfone since it's in e flat. It doesn't sound good this way...But you're right that it's similar, so I recommend you to upload it again, but improved.
Dude this mashup sucks. Why not transpose one of the keys of the songs to match the other? Both songs are within a half-step of each other, so it just sounds like shit. You can't just combine the two and expect them to work. It doesn't work like that in the music industry, and it doesn't work here. All you have to do is adjust the tempos and transpose one of the songs. This can be accomplished even with a simple program like Audacity within a matter of minutes. This is truly disappointing
O: Oh, man, I was totally playing DK2 yesterday when I heard the mining song and I totally thought it sounded very similar to the mountain face one, but they're equally awesome, and different enough to the point that I just want to listen to them both until I die.
Personally, while it sounds awful together, it's really novel to notice that after a full loop of Mining Melancholy, the songs manage to sync back up again. Maybe it explains why I like them both so much, since they pace their "verses" and "bridges" to the same pacing. Probably could be the same guy created both these songs too.
when I was a kid, everyone I knew listened to all this rap crap. I really thought there was no such thing as good music out there, people were surprised that I didn't listen to music. Well, the first album I ever listened to was actually DKC3's OST and it was so much better than everything in the mainstream then AND now.
Every mashup ends up having conflict at times, but very few do you hear a solo from two different games made from two different levels WORK TOGETHER! ^^d
I'm going to upload a Rockface Rumble vs Mining Melancholy mash-up but with matching keys. Also, to make it sound as good as possible, I am NOT going to use Audacity to increase or decrease the pitch, because changing the pitch without the tempo doesn't sound good, so I'm going to use SNESAmp (for Winamp).
Good idea... but either they're in two different keys or I'm going tone deaf. I guess it works if you're into dissonance. It would sound awesome if one melody were transposed to match the key of the dominant melody.
@MrRockAP You know what? I've known these tunes for years, and that comment actually got me thinking.... is Rockface Rumble a very subtle remix OF Mining Melancholy?
Two diferent melodies combined in this case means too many sounds at the same time,even if they have the same rythm. maybe just the first seconds were good.
This is interesting. The music does sound like it goes together at parts, although the one important chorus is a bit clashing. I feel like this happens sometimes in a couple of my music compositions where both songs have the same layout. The simple beats or choruses happen at the same times. I just get into a pattern that I don't notice this until later.

the percussion is the best blend, thing is the melody of each son is not based on the same note, you'd have to transpose one to the other so it would truly blend
OMG!!!! I cannot call myself an old school gamer anymore since I never noticed this and these used to be my favorite games... I am so ashamed of myself o_O
p.s. i hated the level in 3 where you had to climb the rope that was on fire.
