This is like a symphony of all different ways this could be done! I forgot I was still listening to the same song by the end, but then it came full circle beautifully and brought me back down! Well done!
@@simpsons138 Simply a beautiful remix of one of my favorite DKC songs. I felt a chill down my spine after listening to the whole song. You did an excellent job with this remix.
This gives me such a really good feeling, right in my heart, my day was already going pretty well but this was just icing on the cake. Thank you so much for adding a new song to my playlist haha
@@SnthwaveSunset Stickerbush Symphony was originally going to be used for a water level. Later he realized he wouldn't be able to use it and it almost didn't make it in the game. He saw new potential when he took a look at the bramble levels.
Stickerbush Symphony is just one of those songs that just can’t sound bad ever. The original, the Brawl remix, and the multitude of fan covers of the song… truly one of the greatest video game tunes of all time.
Checkpoint: Jonny has decided to remake his cover of Stickerbrush Symphony, which is really sick, the song absolutely deserves to have a new cover from the legendary man himself
@@SleepyReapy32 Undertale, and Stickerbush Symphony, are both such beautiful songs they both always blow me away so much. I just wish Undertale, had a different name because it makes finding covers harder since it usually thinks i mean covers of Undertale, songs, not that certain song.
I heard this song was originally intended for a water level that never happened (I mean, the game features water levels, just none of them play this) I can see it fitting
Yeah, the same kind of water level that's in the first and third games. DKC2's water levels though are ice and sunken ship themed, not sea themed, hence the music having to be reassigned.
TerminalMontage has always been great about giving creators smaller than him the spotlight to show off their creativity with their amazing renditions of classic songs we know and love, this is such a good cover and I'm glad he put it in his video, it will permanently be on my playlist now.
That really does describe a lot of speedruns though when you think about it. It starts off like any other and you're just vibing with your chat not knowing if the runs going to be good or not yet and once you do know its suddenly go time.
Checkpoint: I broke up with my gf. She was wasteful with money and always wanted another thing from me. I moved out, got a place. And have my own stability, without that broad.
Ah yes, the theme of the internet checkpoint, done absolute justice by Jonny... it's honestly beautiful, not to mention absolutely rocking near the end as well. Oh, and remember to take care of yourself too everyone, whatever's going on in your life, you'll make it through in the end, so don't give up, no matter what. Of course, this is only one of two Checkpoints, so how about it Jonny? A journey through the *Corridors of Time* maybe?
It's super easy to download free emulators and hook up a simple Xbox controller to your pc. I highly recommend dipping your toes in the waters of 90's Super NIntendo games... they were genuinely the best.
is it just me, or does sticker brush symphony always sound really emotional no matter the cover? not that it's a bad thing, in fact, i absolutely love that.
@@pringelsthegamefreak lol i don't know anything about music but that may very well be it. also, the constant jingle in the background perhaps has something to do with it's tone as well. the fact that it remains the same as everything else gets more complex. but as i said, i know nothing about music theory, so i could just be retarded.
As always for those interested in my raw footage can find it here - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wWdJECcSyAw.html Now as for comments: I can't express how much this has changed and how much better it feels for it since the 2010 release. And you know as an enjoyer of 'slow metal', this just really hits the spot. Also it feels more natural without Boss Bossanova being in-between everything. Glad I was able to provide footage here and cheers for Airsh backing me up with footage (Did not expect the remix to be this long and one level is not enough!)
Glad to be of service to ya. I'd show the bonuses as well usually, but considering they take away from the level itself, I figured it'd be better to leave it out.
Coming here from TerminalMontage made me realize that, despite having loved songs from GaMetal, I had never subscribed. Fixed that problem in a jiff. Nicely done music!
Jesus Christ, Jonny. You got me crying in class, dude. I never played DKC until about a year ago after first hearing about this song from the “checkpoint” thing. And it hit me right in the feels and gave me that nostalgic, happy feeling. But this was all so gloriously beautiful and badass in a way no other song has ever felt, and I believe David Wise would be proud of you for this cover. I know I certainly am. You’ve managed to amplify those feelings a billion, million times over. Thank you.
Never a dull day when one of my favorite gaming franchises and one of my favorite musicians crossover. Really needed this man after some shit that happened yesterday, thanks Jonny!
One of the, if not the best track ever composed for a game. So many feelings coming back, the lost innocence from our childhood. Simply beautiful, makes you wonder if there will ever be a place where these feelings will return.
I will admit, i’ve never played DKC2 but dang it The Subspace Emissary engrained this song into my mind. One of the most serene and enjoyable themes ever
Ngl, these softer covers you make from time to time are definitely the reason why I like your covers in particular so much more than most other VGM cover artists; so many people tend to think that all you have to do to make something sound more "metal" is to put guitars all over the track, which while it isn't entirely false, it also tends to ruin the essence of the original track and 99% of the time just sounds really bad as a result, but you instead try to respect the original as much as possible while still giving it that metal sound, and I respect that decision a lot haha But yeah, damn good job as always lol; I honestly _love_ the idea of going with a softer intro and building up the intensity more and more, and in general the keyboard work here is _on point,_ way more than some of your other covers in fact, which is totally a plus for me lmao (also I wonder if this could count as a prog rock thing, especially with the bigger overall length of the track and the bigger focus on the keyboard 🤔)
Awesome ! As always , but still . Didn’t expect no soft song , let alone stickerbush symphony . But , I have my little request . Can you please do palkia’s onslaught please ?
Phenomenal remix man. Even though I have never played a single Donkey Kong Country title, I know the legacy the original track carries and you emphasized that legacy amazingly here.
Oh nice, another remix of a beautiful classic! It measures up to the original too! Good job with this. Brawl’s rendition of this song feels like an Act 2 to the original’s Act 1 tbh.
at 12 this was the first song where I 'felt' something and dove deep into music on youtube just a kid and his iPad I would listen to it on repeat to get that feeling it gave me and its what made me want to be a musician thanks for the awesome cover :) edit : tried to learn it on a classical guitar as my first song but that f chord was a challenge xD
kinda hard in realizing that a man David Wise created dis only for 16bit game. It’s fking awesome. Guys it’s was Epic! thank you! Sudden improvisation was awesome! It’s a great game because not only snes and graphics or mechanics it’s in veins!
