[randalthor394]

Definitely some Gusty Garden in there.

[BrawlFanMario]

It sounds so Zen-Like.

[IsisStarlights]

Could you re-upload the version that mashed this and the orchestral versions together? That was better for straight listening!

[crudewicz021]

Seriously, and im dead serious about this.

Please oh PLEASE at least CONSIDER going to Tokyo (before learning some japanese haha) and asking for a job. Show them these songs and your ideas and who knows what will happen! Your amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Linkyloco]

I'm so happy this showed up in my suggestions, it led me to a treasure worth more then gold.

[Linkyloco]

Wow this is great! Would you mind giving me a link to the MP3?

[TheBlackknight720]

Another Beta Element? Since when did Whittles appear in Puzzle Plank Galaxy?

[Absalutly06]

@TheBlackknight720

Removed element, not beta. lol. (i'm such a grammar nazi ;S)

[DeuceyDee]

This stuff is good. Do you make more? You should make more.

[RareKong]

i like the original more

[Titandwedebil]

To be honest, some of your music for these galaxies are better than the one's actually in the game.

[mastromjm]

Fantastic!

[DaManoMano]

wow, the beginning actually sorta sounds like fluffy bluff galaxy from the real SMG2

[NoR0adsLeft]

now you make some great music.

i guess you hear it like everyday

but nintendo really needs you :D

[BowieZ]

@xMrBumpyx Actually, 3000 subscribers want to see them. Just like how your two subscribers want to see your videos.

[xMrBumpyx]

@BowieZ good thing that i dont try to make videos then right? i havent made a video in over three years. your insult is irrelevant

[DaManoMano]

@xMrBumpyx then youre in no position to insult people who DO make videos.

[AwsomeClips202]

[IronBirdshadow]

[MeAreMeGoesMOO]

Wewt! Whittle, FTW!

[detritusatomic]

your songs a realy great they shuld be in super mario galaxy 3 i realy love them

[MylestheMediaMaster]

Did I hear some Good Egg Galaxy somewhere in there?

(1:27 and onward)

[Multimariomaster64]

I found out that this is actually called puzzle plank galaxy

[BooDestroyer]

Not bad for putting all this music together!

C'mon, get the upbeat version with the Buzzsaws back!

[BowieZ]

@BooDestroyer It is back! Check the video response! :P

[Whee601]

DUDE THIS IS AMAZING!

[sloogz]

I don't know why but i think i hear a part of the Gusty Garden Theme thrown in here a few times... Anyone agree?

[BowieZ]

@sloogz Yup, that's deliberate! Check out the orchestral version I just uploaded.

[Multimariomaster64]

I wonder, is the brigade toad captain more brave in this game

[nintendo1889x]

Who was the wiener responsible for the removal? You could have download links for those who want to keep them, right?

[meldan100]

it sounds like gusty garden galaxy :o

[articuno808]

Screw that. Wtf? Terms of violation? I fail to see what the hell the original song violated. It was fan-made and that was clearly stated in the description. Stupid bloody YouTube.

[Valo778]

Due to terms of use violation?

What the heck? What was it violating?

[yustuff98]

I think it is called Tall Trunk Galaxy now. I saw in the 3rd trailer video

[Armalizilto]

"It was removed due to terms of use violation"

I'm still new to Youtube, but what does this here means?

[1996isover]

copyright

[Armalizilto]

@1996isover

Oh

[luigigreens13]

Your music realy sets the mood! another great piece of music!

nintendo needs you :)

[SavingtheLands101]

The official name for this galaxy is: Puzzle Plank Galaxy...& we were all hoping for Driftwood, sucks..

[Cerplex7]

The wooden guys refer to Yoshi as "the green one", isn't that interesting?

[luigifan1111]

Could sombody tell me the name of that wood person? i've been wondering since i saw the trailer. :P

Amazing song btw. :D

[milosbrka]

nobody knows

[Waddledee34]

Hey BowieZ, it's been a while since I came here to listen to this song again.

At first, the annotations were fun to create, but it looks like people are using it to insult each other. Makes me sad to see some people are THAT immature.

Anyway, I have to say that you're my favorite composer.

Good Luck creating more musics! :D

[TRMario]

I'm assuming you deleted your SMG2 theme video because of the new media summit trailer right? But I gotta ask, why'd you delete the original Driftwood Galaxy theme? It's my favorite song of yours. :(

[Petr3y]

yeah, what happened to the original? much better than this imo - this is good don't get me wrong, but the original is ALOT better. don't have to turn speakers up to max volume for one thing :)

[BowieZ]

It got removed due to terms of use violation.... =/

[boricua4445]

@BowieZ OK.....................a little more detail please. AND could you maybe make music for the Spin Dig Galaxy....please(it would be awesome). its just a suggestion though. ;)

[FeloFilms]

@BowieZ but how? the song is yours, you should say it's a mistake! (or maybe koji kondo and majito yokota stole your idea!!!) haha,meh

[Marioxas77]

@FeloFilms Totally agreed :D

[TheCrazyknightz]

@BowieZ Man that's lame. I wanted to listen to it again. :(

[cyclonesscometome]

Dude! ur the best composer eva! i sent an email to nintendo to make u composer for the Smg games! AWESOME SONG BOWIE! MAKE WON LIKE THE ATOMIC CLOCK GALAXY BUT DIFFERENT. BUT ALL THE SONGS R THE BEST!! IM SUBBING!!!!!!!!!!!

[Vahkiti]

What happened to the original? I've noticed alot of your videos are vanishing....

[BowieZ]

It was removed due to terms of use violation.

[renzleobert]

What did it violate now?!

[luigigreens13]

@BowieZ thats sad, it was such a beautiful song to. well at least you still got one version left!

[Marioxas77]

@BowieZ wai, wha? How can these videos be remove due to terms of use violation? I thought the songs you make are all Fanmade, so why terms of use violation?!?

Youtube sucks -.-

[devonjames10]

@BowieZ What asshole removed it?

[SavingtheLands101]

@BowieZ maybe they think that it's the official music for it...?

[Vaati227]

@BowieZ could you upload the mp3 somewhere for the original version if you cant repost it? it was really good.

[meldan100]

@Vaati227 is the animation version of this (search Driftwood Galaxy Music) not the first music??

[BowieZ]

@meldan100 Almost; Glem went ahead and uploaded a very early version of the music lol

[meldan100]

@BowieZ ah, ok ;)

[Armalizilto]

Five it!

[Valo778]

This would be like... Gusty Garden's cousin.

[HyperHoundoom]

Instead of Buzzaws.... The description should say "Grinders"...???

[Armalizilto]

I wonder if I give this video a one star? Because if I did then death will come knocking at my door OH THE HORROR! But if I give this video a five star, then a Angel comes knocking on my door to congratulate me. Hmm..... four star then.

[1andonlyWojjan]

Really nice, but where would you fit this in any part of the stage? Any ideas on what, I wanna keep dreaming 'till Galaxy 2 arrives.

Man I'm quite hopeless ain't I,

[Mastaord247]

nah

[TarntulaKid96]

Probably inside maybe huts or an inside part of the level.

[Sparkz1607]

I wish YouTube would add a "With Approval" public annotation feature. :) This way annotation conversations can stay sane without those god damn spammers.

[ElmntNinja]

I agree.

[xtr54qzy]

@Sparkz1607 true dat

[TheBlackknight720]

you got great music, you should really ask for a job in the Nintendo industry

[Lumayato]

have you make all this SUPER Mario galaxy 2 songs

[Koraldude65]

bravo best vid yet!

[BrawlFan181]

Goddamn annotation spammers -_-

[jamiemusic13000]

just a gess,but is some of tha music and theme taken from gusty garden, 'theme',and the obserbatory.

(i haz best ingris XD)

[J0RD2K7]

love this music.

[weatherman1994]

You know, if I didn't know any better, I'd say that this came from the actual game itself. Have you ever considered sending some of your music to Nintendo? I know they take some suggestions from outsiders (but it might be a little to late since the production of SMG2 is nearly complete). You have some serious musical talent!

[dreamponys]

=D i like this theme i like Mario themes peaceful and well like the others =3 Hmmm...have they given the wood guy a name ong here? I've been wondering about that!

[LUIGIYOSHI112]

Somebody ate my spadelala

[Valo778]

Real?

[theultimatekoopa2]

@Valo778 No. It's a fan-made piece. It's "fake" but it's not supposed to be real. It's basically BowieZ's imagination of what the music WOULD be like.

[Armalizilto]

It would be cool if Nintendo put some of BowieZ's music in Super Mario Galaxy 2!

[AlexanderT21]

What they should do in SMG2 or if not that then SMG3, is include levels where FLUDD or the Poultergust is used [from SMSunshine and Luigi's Mansion respectivley] as well as the Yoshi levels. That would be so great with the Wii remote; just point and shoot! It'd be even easier than in SMSunshine to move and shoot effectively.

[madoc233]

How do you make this music?

[7Dragonfan77]

Brilliant.

[lisahawks08]

They'd better not throw out Luigi! D:<

I doubt they would, though. I hope you can choose to be either one :D

[ElMoss64]

Took me a while to work it out, but I'm pretty sure that I hear some N64 Rainbow Road in there.

[TheSheepVampire]

omigod me too!

[theultimatekoopa2]

@ElMoss64 The first 4 notes are identical to those of N64 Rainbow Road.

[BowieZ]

You know what? I didn't even notice that similarity until you just said that. i wish I could say that it was some clever reference -- Rainbow Road somehow relating to Driftwood Galaxy lol -- but yeah it was just a coincidence/subconscious musical inspiration. :)

[theultimatekoopa2]

Subconscious musical inspiration? You mean that thing where a piece of music comes into your head from somewhere, and so you write it down, or put it to use, only to realise that the reason it came into your head is because it exists anyway? :D

[BowieZ]

Well, yeah, precisely.

If you listen from 0:11-0:20ish, that's the "A" theme, but at first, I had only written the notes from 0:12-20, those smooth flowing longer notes that sort of "drift" away (thus "driftwood").

But I then realized it felt like it needed to come *after* something, a few, memorable notes at the start of that melody.

[Logi30001]

this is very good. how old are you? you have very good musical talent. maybe you should try to start something on your own

[BowieZ]

And yeah, I decided to come up with something rhythmically contrasting those longer notes, so that RR thing must have seeped into my head.

It does the same thing this melody does, it has this floating "drifting" melody, that falls away, but it's contrasted by a really energetic few notes, as if the music is being "launched" into the air and then is left there to float away.

[ElMoss64]

I really like the descriptions you give to bits of music. They really add to it. :P

[ElMoss64]

And yeah, I can hear the notes, I think the bit which really reminds me of it is 0:17

[Naridar]

Okay, you just pwn-d Koji Kondo, Nobou Uematsu, Yasunori Mitsuda, along with most video game composers.

[pabloqp]

see this video please

[pokemon9penguin]

Ok. What up with the annotations?

[deathganon]

could you make a bowser theme for this game that would be epic

[BowieZ]

I'm working my way up to that. I just have to wait for new sound samples (really good quality orchestral/horn/choir ones) to arrive in the mail before I get started.

It's going to be Gothic Rock Horror Orchestra... Super Mario 64 Final Bowser Battle meets Bowser's Galaxy Reactor theme.

[iStar125]

Sooo....... peaceful......ZZZzzZzZZZZ

[BubbaDough]

too many CD-i references in the annotations

[DrRapsheba555]

lol, i see them as well.

[Prophet6000]

lol this beats waiting for mario galaxy 2's ost this will hold me until then Great music bowiez I hope u make it big

[galactamarx]

AAhhhhh.... Pure music.

[ImRosalina]

Epic, as always, Bowie! Great job!

[Marioshi64]

If Super Mario Galaxy 2 has a bit more "variety" in the style of Music and instruments; No doubt itd be almost EXCACTLY like this!

I can picture playing through that level with this song! PERFECTION AS USUAL!

[Fullnintendo]

Wow, although they still have some similarities (which is good), they sound quite different from each other. Oh well, it's like when Spacedust Galaxy got invaved ; huge difference in music and atmosphere!

My critism about the first version isn't really true here. It's still sighly reminscient of Honeyhive, but unique (I really like the woodwind and percussions here) and very fitting like it should.

Have that SMG vibe while having your own. Your music is always awesome. 5/5 and favorited!

[JDavies345]

i hope they make Luigi back for a unlockable....OH I HAVE A IDEA!!! make a Luigi's Mashion Remix to the title theme and this one

[legof2]

Even better idea, he could make his own mansion theme. Anyone can remix Luigi's Mansion and Bowie is known for making his own music. How disappointed do you think his fans would be to see that he simply just remixed a song?

[wildvine47]

Man, this is amazing, it fits so well. It almost seems like it could be a jungle river level!

I also had another idea for a song other than Lost Frost Galaxy. Flipsy Flopsy Galaxy would be the galaxy with the flipping platforms in the trailer that are activated by spinning. It would be one of those one star galaxies, so it would have a minigame-type feel to it.

[Towerofhera]

Soooo Great!!!

[Dousch]

It would be awesome if this was in Super Mario Galaxy 2.

[zephan12]

awesome!

could someone PM me about how to put up those box things in the video?

[Fro5000]

Check his description. ;D

[zephan12]

fro5000

thanks XD

[as303298]

Why it sounds so familar?

[SHYKOOPA]

Wow, you're so good doing this, that some people are believing that this is real Galaxy 2 music!

[sweq32]

If this music isn't in,Nintendo is CRAZY!

Bowie,you are one of the best!<3

[Bamboozle4]

Wow, love the harp bits inbetween! great job, but ofcourse I didn't expect any different <3

[supermario134]

this is great could you please do jingle jungle galaxy or yoshi's level =)

[articuno808]

Try playing both versions at the same time! It sounds even better!

I'll say this again BowieZ, you are amazing when it comes to composing music and I mean it when I say that!

[Vdeogamer]

When I heard it faded in with the original version, it sort of weirded me out at first, because you had really adventurous music, and then it got to be a little more tranquil. This version is cool, but not as cool as the original.

[articuno808]

Nice! Excellent as always!

Keep 'em coming! ;)

[TehGorunt]

Wow!

[aragorio]

you shouldmake an mp3 of it id listen to it every day on my ipod

[MegaGeek325]

There's a media converter online that can turn any video into an mp3.

But if you use it in a video, you should give credit.

Google word for word, media converter.

It should be the first result.

[SilverXy7]

Gezz...it sure is peaceful around here

[MarioMastar]

Very wonderful. It is very peaceful. It actually reminds me of the beginning starter places in the Legend of Zelda games (such as Outset Island or Kokiri Forest). Nice jungly style to it.

Um...I don't mean to push or anything, but could you upload the full orchestrated version playing the entire time as well? The version that plays in the first half of the first Driftwood Galaxy video. I really like this version, but I just love the loud and epic feel of the orchestrated version as well.

[aznbluejay]

I would totally play the game if your music was in it just for that. xD

Have you managed to get to Nintendo? You'd be a very valuable asset. :P

[aragorio]

i agree with him

[Paul2377]

Another very good composition.

I think a lot of the music you compose could be in Zelda, too. This one almost has a Goron theme to it at the start. Keep it up. :)

[dakirbydude]

sounds like nice music. how were you able to get your hands on this?

[ALinkttF]

He made it...

[PrfctPhntm]

He made it!

[PrfctPhntm]

er, that was directed @ dakirbydude

[pikminfan1998]

he managed to get his hands on it by making it himself!

[pikminfan1998]

the first star could be:

"follow the wooden road"

generally, one of the wood guys would be giving you a tour of the galaxy, and at the end, he would give you a star for visiting!

[marioz16]

Nice the song reminds me of a jungle

[drybones234]

yeah i like it they might have the music in there why not submit this to nintendo? they might add it XD

[WiiPlays2]

Dude your amazing i've never seen someone so musical

[Mephiles200108420]

You always compose amazing things. This is no exception. ;)

[BowieZ]

Thank you so much, dude! :-)
