Kirby 64 The Crystal Shards Game Music - Ripple Star

[thechaosemralds2332]

When i first heard this i knew that THIS IS WHEN SHIT GETS SERIOUS!!!!!!!

[Valexz11PM]

awesome drums solo

[Marth1993]

"Now, you must acquire a taste for FREE FORM JAZZ"

[RevolverPhantom]

This would be positively badass with some heavy bass, drums, and synth-guitar.

[Fatalyze666]

@RevolverPhantom FamilyJules7x does a kirby64 guitar medley that has this tune in it, if you wanna check that out

[QuartrGuy]

Oh yeah...love that Jazz

[thethethethethethey]

I still have this old, yet great game. :) I love this game!

[AwesomeFassad]

This should be in EarthBound. It'd be cool if that game had gameplay like Kingdom Hearts. I could imagine Ness and his friends plowing through aliens, one by one, with this music playing.

[Channl0fstuff87]

@AwesomeFassad

Fight against an Unsettling opponent sounds alot like this.

[AwesomeFassad]

@Channl0fstuff87 Yeah, it does. This is just a lot faster and it makes you wanna dance.

[DJAshian]

Can you say Axe/Jazz Gang Theme Song?

[dalp3000]

i loved the end of the level, you could see the room were you fight miracle matter.

[Bluyoshi8z]

This is why I never beat this level. On purpose.

[luigi6456]

Battle against an unsettling Kirby. I know I am not the only one who thinks they sound quite similar.

[coreykun667]

@luigi6456 Holy crap, it does! 

[brainjuice654]

you may fuck with nightmare

you may fuck with marx

BUT YOU DON'T FUCK WITH DARK MATTER!!!!!!!

[Kruegernator123]

Sakurai is freaking CRAZY for not putting song in Brawl. How can you not?!

[XeloLegend]

@Kruegernator123 you're right!!!!!! 

[Kijekatana]

This is by fat fy favorite song from any game I've EVER PLAYED. EVER.

[Chaos4629]

No, Patrick. I would not like to accquire a taste for free-form jazz. Not anymore.

[alreadytakenthe3rd]

I want to see a jazz band play this.

[LWStupidus]

I remembered I rented this game, wish I bought it back in the day.

[Imygyn]

what in the crap!? ugh, i was expecting it to have cute-sounding music. i like it, but this is insane for a heart-shaped planet...

[tacoman422]

@Imygyn Well, bear in mind it is a heart-shaped planet that has been horribly infested with darkness.

[TheKidFro67]

@Imygyn Im guessin you never finished the game :P

[satan3930ss2580]

かっこいいなｗ

[somerandomteen]

Agreed, the bass in this song is awesome.

[Arcticgod3535]

the bass line is epic this should have been in brawl or at least in a medley

[commenter83]

(>^.^)>

[RRVCrinale]

I can imagine this music playing whilst Kirby pulls a bank job or something with naught but a fedora and a Tommy gun.

[BUENANA77]

This music sounds creepy and mysterious and happy almost like a creepy mysterious circus.....

[Kirbyfan11]

@TIKXIII Yeah, kinda forgot about that xD Still Nintendo of America changes a lot of stuff, not just Kirby.

[aaroneepap]

Right when I entered this level and this song came on, I knew shit was about to get real.

[mxyzptlk2010]

my favorite track in the entire game.

[cbchuckman]

who says someone cute and pink can't be a total badass?

[IvoryGecko1993]

Reminds me of the Ren & Stimpy Theme Song

[MKMurmur]

John Coltrane called from beyond the grave. He wants his song back, lol

[wasp2020]

demonic jazz...perfect.

love that drum break

[Phazonin]

this song is amazing. it's like demonic jazz. Kirby 64 has such a damn goooooooood OST

[anatolebahorel]

I started playing this game thinking Kirby was cute.

I finished this game thinking Kirby was badass.

[eeveefan]

A real life jazz band needs to do a cover of this.

[icy89firaga]

Favorite part- 1:04 to 1:22

[Arcticgod3535]

I think this should be in brawl the Up beat bass seems like there's a fight going on

[Sergeantspoon]

Kirby is fucking manly! Chuck Norris has nothing on Kirby!

[Ilovemariofan]

@Sergeantspoon Of course Chuck Norris can't win since Kirby will just copy his powers just like Captain Falcon and the other 200+ characters he copied.

[Qdude10]

When I got suspended from school, This song played in my head...

[RobochaoXX]

@Qdude10 You must have contemplated revenge and a plethora of thoughts clouded your mind.

[omegallednar]

I love the Bass in this theme

[annonymousmaniaciii]

jazzy

[jokerhaha11]

Why do I picture myself dancing to such a catchy tune? O.o

[akatsukigirl02]

@jokerhaha11 Because it's AMAZING!!! 8D

[InsanityCyber]

You know when listening to this, you know that there's some serious crap to deal with! That's why this music's awesome!

[MrApocalisse]

who ever came up with this must be a musical genius

[DemonHunterRukia]

@MrApocalisse A Beethoven for game music :D

[Suetakefan]

This is some real swingin stuff man!!!!

[thecakeofdestiny]

Level scared spooked me. Nuff said.

[Deltacide1]

Too bad this game sucked dick compared to Superstar.

[linkrocks9898]

@Deltacide1 mmm-hmm.....because Kirby superstar had combo ability's to and they were SO epic...yeah....i remember that AND IT WAS SO COOL HOW IT WAS JUST 6 GAMES IT ONE wow that was even cooler

[Deltacide1]

@linkrocks9898 Superstar was a livelier game with a better presentation and a more buoyant feel (more so than dreamland 3). Many enemies were spaced too far apart in this game, causing it to slow down in areas. The coop was what made superstar. playing that with a friend was better than playing this one alone. There were more power ups in that game than their were in this one. The combos were epic? Whatever.

[FlamingAntelope667]

Ripple Star seems like a good place to live. Hands down best music in the game!!

[edward18517]

jazzy o.o

[e69alpha]

it's like big band

[akatsukigirl02]

If anyone can find the bass tab for this song, I would be GREATLY appreciative!

[Codybean1]

MUST. REMAKE. IN. MARIO. PAINT. PERIOD!

[Eyedol829]

adorable yet badass

[MaffinEXE]

the game frustrates me to no end, but I stick through to the final boss because it's WORTH IT.

[famartz11]

That bass is practically telling me to get a MP3

[DeathIIV]

THIS ISNT RUPLE STAR ITS THE FIRST LEVEL whycant anyone posdt the ripple star MAP with 3 minutes and 54 seconds?????

[EliaForce1984ita]

I'd BONK it :3

[lapin9666]

This song. :fan:

I love this song!

o(^_^o)

[jammerjaw]

t(-.-t)

[FinalizedDoomPhoenix]

c(^_^c)

[Sigmanonymous]

(>^_^)>

[TrunkJunky]

d(^_^ d)

[tk20028]

I've played through this game soo many times because the music is just so great. I still have the game here!!

[MINSANEvideos]

jazzy as hell, lovely bass part.

as a bass player, one can really learn a lot from soundtracks from Kirby, Tetris Attack, etc.

[diahard88]

^(^_^)^

Hiiii...

[sp0nge1337]

sounds like Moonside. has that same sort of creepy vibe.

[TowelieSaysHey]

Sounds like an evil casino....leave it to Kirby to make a killer ragtime tune.

[snatcherofpeachs]

i like this song a lot its not something youd expect in a kirby game but its really cool

[jammerjaw]

I've always wanted to play this game, but I never had a chance to.

[ShyDeathKitten666]

Killer bass line! It is oh so very funky!

[Nintendavin]

When I was young, this song made me feel like something bad was going to happen if I didn't finish the stage fast enough.

So I ran through the whole thing while being scared to death...

[eXtremeLink859]

I felt the exact same way, I thought Kirby would turn dark and go backwards if I stopped T_T

[AkumaUchitoru]

So it sounds like one of those count-down themes? I hate those in games... So far I can only think of them as being the worst in platformers like Mario and Sonic.

[Eriansy13]

O_O* I WAS SO SCARED OF THE MARIO GALAXY TIME THEME OMG! this is not as bad but still creepy D:

[MegaGeek325]

I bet if someone who's a stereotypical "Kirby's lame 'cuz he's cute" kind of person listened to this without knowing where it was from...

My bet is they'd think it was something really badass. Kirby would be the last thing on their mind.

PS, THE JAZZ IS AWESOME!

[Homepie]

Anyone who dismisses Kirby games because they're "cute and cuddly" has never played a Kirby game all the way to the final boss.

[bringthemead]

agreed... kirby rules.

[DeathbeastGregar]

@Homepie

Earthbound/Mother is kind of the same way. You think it's just a game about a boy and his friends fighting to save the world against a chubby kid until....

[shalpp]

lol bloody floating eyes

[joelcll]

@Homepie yeah very true

[metakight4]

@Homepie i know it's the japan version were kirby is cute and cuddly but the american kirby is a badass motherfucker lol

[Kirbyfan11]

@metakight4 No Kirby is more cuddly in America, he's more badass in Japan. I mean look at the anime, if you compare the Japanese and English version to each other it's pretty obvious which one is badass.

[Skankineddie666]

for some reason i picture kirby playing a giant stand up bass to this song lol

[seapenguin43]

I always picture DeDeDe playing the Xylophone, Saxophone and Synthesizer at once when I listen to it. I don't know why though.

[chincherrinas]

electric + cutter = kick ass lightsaber!

loved to kick the asses of the many baddies of this level w/ d lightsaber :)

[edgarinxD]

i agree with you !!

(:

this song owns everything!!

[sonicfan803]

OMG i do that everytime i go to this level.

[Silentmurder911]

It's all about

bomb and cutter

[Mugen904]

Fire +Fire=Unbeatable Phoenix

Ice+Electric=Never die

My two favorite

[kaabisupremeoverload]

The Kirby series is a largely overlooked game. It's unique, unpredictable, mysterious, dark, and creepy, but people just see it as "cute".

If you don't believe it, play Kirby 64. Best game ever.

[AkumaUchitoru]

I know. Yesterday I just saw a video of Kirby being possessed by some Demon Frog in the anime. That was creepy. 0_o

[starshkr46]

@kaabisupremeoverload

So true.

[rikku362]

@kaabisupremeoverload

never underestimate Kirby or his games! 

[TheJugement]

@kaabisupremeoverload i never really tought kirby was overlooked!

and the unique-mysterious-dark-and little creepy setings is my favorite elements of a game =)

[BobSpotOn]

@kaabisupremeoverload Kirby is a strange series indeed.

[EchoBoomer1987]

Time to visit the One-Ups profile and make a request!

[ollicerocks]

very catchy, matches with the level too!:-)

[Rovelius]

Too bad this level was too much of a walk in the park... the song is so good.

[lazyboyclark]

this is called dark matter's castle

[CaptainWilliam9000]

Why am I listening to this? I have the 64 and Kirby! C YA LATER!

[randomfan1]

Allways loved this game. its a good thing I still have it on my N64

[SuperNintendoGameboy]

I have Kirby 64 on the Virtual Console

[64supermarioreturns]

I have it on my Nintendo 64 ;)

[JoeDaPokemonMasta1]

Wow... This song is quite brilliant. Kudos to the composers of this work of art.

[WPH15]

Cool song, sounds like a jazz piece.

[JagaimoLoco]

This is the first time I think I've ever tapped my foot to video game tracks.

[Gang3rs]

sound abit like cowboy bebop

[Sephirothblaze]

lawl ddd looks like a duck in this game ahhhh good ol days

[DIEDIECANNON20XL]

BEST SONG IN THE GAME

HANDS DOWN.

I loved this stage's music. Made kirby feel tough and rugged.

Fav. Ability form this game: Boomerang+Bomb=?

Bet cha' all know what that ability is huh? ;D

[ChaosUnown]

Homing Ninja Star, hell yeah. XD

[DIEDIECANNON20XL]

they did'nt home. Your throw had to be SOMEWHAT accurate for it to hit.

[metroid998]

Exploding Ninja stars

[DIEDIECANNON20XL]

O HELL YEAH.

[MirkicatDiva]

My favorite, I believe was stone and needle. That was awesome. Now I feel like playing it...

[DIEDIECANNON20XL]

Stone+Needle... is that the Drill? Not a bad ability. Especially because you can shoot it and it goes through walls. I got this game on my Wii. I play it every now and then.

[MirkicatDiva]

Yep. It's just fun to use it in the more simple places. (Not falling areas, etc.)

[DIEDIECANNON20XL]

true. It is pretty funny to see kirb getting dragged along the ground by it. XD

[alternalose]

My favorite was Ice + Needle. Exploding Gordo FTW!

[DIEDIECANNON20XL]

Meh. moves too slow for me i'm much more of a rapid speed kinda guy.

[alternalose]

Yeah, but I enjoy using wave attacks where it's easy to attack, so...I also liked ice + cutter. Figure skating was awesome.

[DIEDIECANNON20XL]

Yeah figure skating was pretty awesome. You had to lean to time it, but once you got it you were golden. Plus it had options for attacking.

[alternalose]

I also liked dual ice. Sucking up enemies in an invinicble snowball was awesome.

[DIEDIECANNON20XL]

Eh. Wasn't that great when you needed to take you enemies in the air.

I was more a fan of Flame+Cutter

or Flame+Flame.

Rock+Cutter wasn't bad either... if you changed till you got the smaller bird.

[alternalose]

True, but the flying enemies couldn't hurt YOU either.

[DIEDIECANNON20XL]

Ah... True, true. You know your stuff. Still, if you needed to go straight up or didn't have alot of area to perform the move it was basically rendered useless (since it stopped once you hit a wall).

[alternalose]

True, but you usually had to work pretty hard to find a dual ice in places like ruins or tunnels. I'd typically use a move like dual spark to hit enemies through walls or above me.

[MudkipzExtreme]

This song needs more BASS.

[kracko9000]

JAZZY

[metaknight41]

is adeline a boy or a girl?

[Casparatis]

Girl.

She looks a lot more feminine in Kirby's Dream LAnd 3, though.

[LordxOfxThexMariosx]

That baseline is so freaking awesome.

[hoopsandyoyofan26]

this and the factory music are the best music in the game

[allsmiles432]

hopefully someone more talented than me will play this on piano and post a video on youtube.

[allsmiles432]

this song is so friggen cool..... best part at 0:43 - 0:57

[IsaacAndFelix]

=o woooow I totally had a flash back of myself playing this back then in the good 90's :P

This so is so catchy xD I loved it.

[LosmnoAlt]

This game came out in 2000 you know right.

[IsaacAndFelix]

Doesn't matter, it's so awesome it's considered a part of the 90's

[rainbowopalgoddess]

I like this song. it's like a swift jazzy tencho beat.

[MadManX123456]

It's ripple star tower not the actual ripple star theme

[brodiger]

pretty cool

[kirbywordy]

i shall write lyrics to this

[brodiger]

yeah that wold be cool if you did

[HenryTouchdown]

Kirby games always have epic soundtracks ;)

[iceflame5]

The solo in this is amazing, even though its all electronic. I wish they would fully orchestrate this!!!

[EyMeng]

This song needs to be played in real life!

[BanjoPikzooie]

Those were ze days eh? and Lol double-o-kirby sounds like an epic game idea.

[knightmare39]

sounds like something you would hear from cowboy bebop

[LDTREX]

i remember thinking of kirby as a detective or in a james bond outfit when i heard this.

[ShyGuyPal101]

Lol! Same here, Double O-Kirby. B)

[simpsonsdude74]

can someone post a video with this playing in brawl?

[PTp1ranha]

It fits. You're rushing through a seemingly okay place but still fighting, hurrying to Dark Matter.

[amena25]

it was realy soft music :)

[ShadowKirby20]

I love how this song has sort of a jazz theme to it.

[TheEnd1190]

I still hum this song to this day

[deanzonit721]

Kirby has the catchiest, AND most epic music...

[mdp311]

kirby and zelda!
