  • perfectly captures the original song, this should have 500,000 views

  • Wow dude, this rocked my socks off!! Loved this BGM from Donkey Kong Country and you took it and made it into something wicked & epic..! The ambiance with the violin at 0:14 gave me chills. I don't care who flames me for this but I'm totally crushing on you lmao

  • Some tight ass shit you got here.

    

  • Te doy un hijo ctm O.O

  • i know it would be really difficult for you to make a tutorial of this one (especially because of the violin-guitar thing) but it would be awesome if you could make a tutorial of it :)

  • what software you use for the battery ?????

  • @NandoRock01 Battery?

  • @FamilyJules7X sorry, for the Drums

  • @NandoRock01 EzDrummer.

  • @FamilyJules7X i love the bow and the intro! ur just really amazing!

  • Awesome *-*

  • Awesome, realle awesome

  • I cannot get enough of this video!!!!!! I now watch it religiously. It's so therapeutic man. Especially for someone who grew up playing DKC every day. I still can't find the "2 very huge thumbs up button..."

  • I was going to do a cover of this track...now I'm not.

    Badass!

  • i was shitting bricks every time you tuned your e string upwards thinking it would snap and kill you. it didnt.

  • congrats, it was a very personal approach to a classic, and it worked out really well.

  • wow, nice job!!!!!!

  • outstanding!

  • FUCKING AWESOMEEEEEE!

  • ahhhh amazing :) one of my favourite tracks and you did it justice! <3

  • You are amazing...that is all

  • that was pretty intuitive with the tuning/bow for the ambience

  • Wow dude. This and occ of time loz are my favorites. You should definitely aim for megamanX4. That game has some kickass music that im sure u could have some fun with!

  • brillint truly

  • nintendo deve assumerti per fare musiche per i suoi video game .

  • excelente!!! very good

  • I don't think I will ever find a song as good as this :/

  • Comment removed

  • I actually Cried Hearing this...

  • Grandissimo! Si sente tutta la passione che ci hai messo :)

    Great job! This is really your masterpiece!

  • bella! bellissimi ricordi di donkey kong

  • Awesome!

    Back in time when Rare used to make masterpieces

  • dude this is unbelievably accurate and good, yet all the while in your own style. i commend the work u put into this.

  • @ARTIFICIALillusion accurate... lol he used a program to arrange the midi to guitar.

  • Dude, I am sending this video everywhere I can THINK of, because I wanna learn how to play it... and not just one part either, the WHOLE DAMN THING!!! XDDDD

    piano, bass, all that!

  • @dopesheezy im sorry but the combination with the violin bow and guitar is really out of this world

  • I would pay for that...but its free WOOT! 8D

  • Great cover, from one of the best game soundtracks of all time. Do more DKC when you feel like it, this was great.

  • can you do a rendition of the Forest Interlude and Stickerbrush, Zingers Flight is also a nice tune i think would be good to cover from DK2

  • @Daedelus92 No but that's one I wanna do, I did K. Rool from Donkey Kong 64 in my Nintendo 64 Medley 2. :)

  • At 2:19 you look like an idiot, but this cover is an epic win. XD

    Great job!

  • My boner is over 9000 right now (No homo) <=p

  • I usually don't post comments like this, but I couldn't resist...

    King K. Rool is the only one that disliked this video.

    That is all.

  • I gotta say, this is by far my favorite cover u did so far. I honestly haven't played too many of the games u did covers for, but I grew up playin DK Country, n the musicianship u put in this 1 really brings on a serious nostalgia factor unlike any other. Im pluggin in my SNES after work. Keep it up bro.

  • THIS DESERVES 384729859384570943573048593045­083489691035813498651935813485­1823'5893489'23768430697823510­3480932'8590348095308493850934­803'4936034058894580930851'394­5809835394013480501394 views D_:

  • @FamilyJules7X Also, if you don't mind explaining, how/why did you come up with your particular "fingering" technique for the main melody? It's very interesting how you use the 2nd and 3rd fingers for notes the 3rd and 4th fingers would normally handle. Is that to facilitate hammers and pull-offs? It's alil Wes Montgomery-esque.

  • @FamilyJules7X Man, that's some musicianship right there...what a cool idea to use the bow and tuner like that for that effect.  Hopefully you do some SNES medleys; David Wise's works shall live on!!

  • Nice video, cool T-shirt but what's up with the hair?

  • @boulax Earmuffs. It was cold at the time. Contrary to popular belief, I'm not emo. :\

  • why does this video have only 7k views? :O!

  • That was amazing!!

  • KICK. ASS. that is all...

  • Tears in my eyes!!

  • HOLY FUCK!

    PLEASE DO STICKERBRUSH SYMPHONY NEXT

  • This is the best cover from a track from DKC I've ever seen and ....HEARD !!! It's amazing, keep rocking !

  • I like the bit at the start with you and the bow, creative did you make it up?

  • @DYLZAL I was trying to figure out how to do the whine in the intro and I decided to use a bow. :)

  • download link isnt working :(

    

  • This is my favorite track you've made so far. Keep rockin man! =)

  • this is by far your best cover, so awesome, couldnt stop listening to it! btw i LOVE all the games you covered songs from! good man, good taste in music, AWESOME guitar skills!

  • What would this genre be called? Ambient metal? Someone, please enlighten me :O

    On another note, it's been a whole 2 months since I discovered this song, and I'm still listening to it as if it was new :]

  • damn

    so impressive.

  • thanks mate, your an inspiration in my second month of starting guitar ^.^ when i get up there i gotta thank you for inspiring me to get there along the way

  • Oh my god dude! Absolutely amazing. I was playing this game with a buddy of mine last night and when I was on this level I was talking to him about how amazing the music is. I was ecstatic when I saw that you did a cover of it. You did the song justice big time. Keep it up :)

  • Beautiful

  • Could you tab out the "sweep shapes" for this, for lack of better term ;)

  • How do you edit your stuff? You have some mad skillz

  • Wow awesome. I love the song choice, the rop C chug, and how your rockin a POD :-) keep it up man!

  • F'in Amazing

  • Do you always keep your Schecter in Drop C? Because I too have a Floyd Rose Schecer and I find it's a bitch to tune so I was just wondering if you always kept it in C?

  • @XtremNarutofan Yes I do. Make sure the bridge is balanced in the tuning and using the locks. If that doesn't work, it may be a problem with your guitar. :(

  • @FamilyJules7X Thanks man yeah it's fine like using the fine tuners at the bottom but like having to undo the locks then using the top tuners etc. is just a hassel xD also keep rocking you've become a huge inspiration for me

  • Damn it.... this track is just so fucking beautiful i don't know how else to describe it!

  • You should really do a cover of Mine Cart Madness from DKC. I have NEVER seen a good cover of this and it's one of my fav songs from the Donkey Kong franchise.

  • One of the best vids I've seen from you in a while. Great job.

  • you are a awesome ....like jimmy pag in dazed and confused uh? =D greetings

  • I speak spanish , sorry for my english

    the song is beatiful

    you play the song very good

    good job brother!

    I play guitar bass

    but my videos is in facebook

    my name is ricardo maldonado sotelo

    we are talking

    saludos socio

    los temas te salen realmente bkn

  • This is just fantastic dude.  Solid stuff.

  • I have my SNES with this game with me in my dorm room but have no TV to play it on. I've been Donkey Kong Country deprived for so long. This cover is fucking amazing, btw.

  • You´re a genius man...no other words to describe you.

  • Bramble Blast is in my opinion the best sound in Donkey Kong Country series.

    I wish you someday do a cover of this sound ... Would be wonderful

  • Awesome! FamilyJules7X, you rock!

  • duuuuuuddeee, this was so amazing. you did a great rendition of it, man.

  • All these comments are just saying "teach us this song"

  • wtf, dude this is totally amazing, sounds way better than the orignal!

    fantastic!

  • an entire DKC medley would b amazing. take the best songs from 1 and 2 and maybe 3 even though it kinda sucked

  • @PatrickThePreecher Honestly, not nearly as much as guitar.

  • For the record, I love ALL of your work, but this is by far your best.

  • from 0:00 to 0:45 i was waiting for u to pop the string lol but the video is freakig amazing!!!

  • The bow was a really good a idea. It captured the weird feeling in this song. You should do more covers with the it. Also how do you get such a good sound with that bow on an acoustic? Is it electric acoustic?

  • @OttotheOtter97 Yes, it's an acoustic-electric. I really wanted to use my condenser mic because it would have sounded better, but I needed a power box for it. So to get that sound I recorded it as is and turned everything that had to do with treble, all the way down. Otherwise the sound was cacophonous.

  • This is just perfect! If i had three thumbs, all of them would be up right now LOL

    And it would be absolutely fantastic if you play Stickerbrush Symphony (aka Bramble Scramble) from Donkey Kong Country 2.

    Congrats!

  • 0 people dislike

    EPIC!!

  • Fucking amazing....

  • Very nice sir. All these tunes you do are awesome especially this one I love the bow at the beginning. I wasn't even sure if the electric guitar would be hugely good but it turned out to be great. Once again I was amazed, keep up the good work.

  • It never really occurred to me to look up a guitar version of this theme even though I like it. But, I'll tell you what... It actually sounds great on the guitar. You did a really good job. Infact, you did a really good job with all of your video game covers. I look forward to hearing your future ones. :)

  • this could also be a track by Halo ODST , or is it just me who thinks this?^^

  • Comment removed

  • WHY ARE WE NOT FUNDING THIS!!!

  • how do you add more screens for harmony parts? i make videos similar to yours, mine arent as great tho. could you tell me how to do it?

  • @Musicngamesnstuff I use Premiere Pro which makes it really easy to do picture-in-picture for harmony parts. You can't do it in things like Movie Maker.

  • @Musicngamesnstuff Try Sony Vegas 10 if you want it a bit cheaper. Its 79 dollars and I've managed to work with similar stuff (though my musics not as good as his).

  • @Musicngamesnstuff If you wanna be cheaper, $99 Sony Vegas 10 does it pretty easily. Of course my videos aren't a great example...

  • Wow! I was just playing this level on my GBC earlier and thinking about how cool the music was! That's crazy.

  • Dude you have to freaking work for nintendo or any other gaming companies composing music for videogames, I think everyone in the gaming community would really appreciate!!!! By the way the violin bow sounded awesome!!!!

  • Dude, that ambience with the bow really friggin' creeps me out for some reason. It's weird, even with that (which I liked by the way), this song is still chill as hell! Another complete success for Jules!

  • Daaaaamn! I personally thought your work with the bow was fantastic, your guitar playing was superb as usual and everything blended together perfectly. Nice work Jules.

  • can you do bloody tears

  • @717thgamer I did that one in my Castlevania Medley. :)

  • PERFECT DARK IN THE N64!

  • You Are AmazinG

  • dude i fuckin love u....no homo, this is so amazing!!!

  • There's nothing left to say but AWESOME!

  • Holy shit this is amazing!!!

    Please do more DKC =]

    Might I recomend Stickerbrush Symphony? :)

  • you look like a complete fucking tool but gnarly ass cover dude. DKC rules

  • I literally just ejaculated all over the screen and myself.

  • Your just the most amazing person to ever have been given to us by god himself.

  • Holy Bawlz. All I can say is this:

    Wow.

    This brought back so many memories of playing this on the SNES at my old house. I remember the environment, not only in the game, but what I was surrounded in. My mothers home cooking, the couch i used to sit in to play this.

    I give you my thanks, for reviving those memories which I thought I had lost.

  • simply beutiful man

  • am... like The electric guitar sound its sounds heawy like for metal i love the sound with sistortion... what string do you use ,.what size? like the rithm

  • @Vaidizzz123 Oh, I use 10 - 52 (Earnie Ball Skinny Top Heavy Bottom)

  • @FamilyJules7X Exactly what I use! Synyster Gates use's them, thats what got me hooked.

  • Enguarde would be proud!

  • What string do you use to get that heawy sound? like what number? 8?9?10?

  • @Vaidizzz123 Which heavy sound is that?

  • HOLY...GOD !!! That was fantastic DON'T STOP MAKING YOUTUBE VIDS PLEASE THUMBS ALL THE WAY UP !!

  • esto me causa muchos escalofrios

    un gran tema

    espero de que hagas los demas temas de donkeykong country

    o por lo menos un medley de este

  • Fucking amazing, as usual. This one is by far my new favorite. Shit had me mesmerized.

  • Hell yeah dude! I got so dang excited when I heard what song this was! This ranks high up there on my list of favorite video game tunes, and you certainly did it justice here. I can imagine it was hard getting the right sound using the bow, but I think you totally nailed the tone for this song. Another Donkey Kong tune suggestion: Stickerbush Symphony from Donkey Kong Country 2, my second favorite Kong song after this one!

  • That was fantastic! Really high quality recording you've done!
