We already knew this song would sound great both from the music leak and then the trailer, but it’s still hard to put into words how amazing a glow up this was from Tour’s version! This one sounds so much more alive
Honestly though. The original felt a little underwhelming given the musical build up found in the first few seconds. This has the same energy throughout and is all the better for it! Great remix.
It makes sense that Nintendo would remaster songs from the older consoles for the BCP, but to enchance the music from tour, a game newer than MK8D, shows that graphics aside the BCP is a work of art.
@@rlstevzz No it's not, according to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. The 'Tour' prefix isn't used to note if a course is from Mario Kart Tour, but that it's based on a real-life city.
@@rlstevzzik this is months old but yeah, I know, I really like Ninja Hideaway too but I prefer the night city thing that Singapore Speedway has a lot more
I was lukewarm on this track at the start...then it ran up and slapped me in the face so indignantly i think it left a mark. Same with the actual track, there's just so much going on, each lap feels special, and that's really enjoyable.
To be fair, Singapore is one of the smallest countries in the world. It is simply smaller than the most petite dot a pen can produced. Nonetheless, I am glad Singapore is able to have the spotlight since both SG and Japan are simply close neighbours
well yeah, but it doesn’t make sense to me that i can’t officially play my country’s course lol (although i did anyway by changing my switch region to australia)
Ok so while I may not be the biggest fan of every city track. When the city tracks are good, THEY ARE GODLIKE!! Singapore Speedway is probably my favourite since Sydney sprint! Probably my 2nd favourite track in wave 4 after Yoshi's island!
Say what you want about Tour city tracks, but I call you a liar if you think Tour doesn't have a great soundtrack in the series. Idk what it is with Nintendo and just going nuts with each Tour remix, especially the city's tracks. They always completely changed the city track music to be more fuller and more alive in 8. The city tracks themselves are just ok, but it's their unique music style and vocals that truly make them stand out in the sounds department.
Well I'd imagine that getting to work on a song that tries to encapsulate a musical style unique to a certain country might be a lot more fun and rewarding than working on a song that has the same general style as most other songs in the game
We tour players knew this was gonna be a huge success for fans in general it’s just everything is top notch. And it seems MK devs knew this as well granting it the precious 4th slot to a city where in other waves is reserved to either nitro (/non city tour track how you wanna see it) or beloved retro track
Am I the only one thinking that this sound like a song from an older sonic game? If someone would have told me that this is from Sonic CD I wouldn't have disagreed. Awesome!
100% and I was looking for this comment somewhere under here. I really feel like it sounds like a Sonic Mania-style remix of one of the old game songs.
I still prefer OG Berlin Byways at times, but it depends on the vibe I'm feeling -- both are good but they have slightly different atmospheres. For most of 'em, though? The MK8 tracks are sensational.
The music in this wave is full of all bangers and this is no exception! It's such a fantastic remix of an already great song, keeping the energy of the intro unlike the tour version. Tied with Dk Summit and Yoshi's Island for best music in the wave!
I had a feeling from the music leak that this would sound good! As of this wave, the only other tracks whose music was leaked but has yet to appear are Los Angeles Laps, Vancouver Velocity and GBA Sunset Wilds, which I am almost confident will appear in the last two waves.
just found out today that when you go into the Chinatown sections it plays this theme in a traditional chineese version! Nintendo really outdid themselves for wave 4 soundtracks
This version of Singapore Speedway is awesome and I actually predicted that track to be in wave 4 well along with Vancouver Velocity which didn’t show up in wave 4, (well there always wave 5 for Vancouver Velocity)
i take back what i said about dk summit, THIS song sounds EXACTLY like something that would play in wii party. maybe for the final rounds of globe trotter lol
Just played Wave 4 earlier tonight and it was quite an experience. The city tracks in this were fairly solid compared to a number of Tour city tracks featured in previous waves. I suspect Los Angeles Laps and Vancouver Velocity will be in wave 5, with the leaked upcoming city tracks arriving in the final wave.
Seriously Splatoon x Tee Lopes x Sonic Mania vibes going on here, especially 0:29-1:01. The progression of the piano at 0:43-1:01 sounds exactly like it came straight of one of the remixes from Sonic Mania 😁
As an Asian, Malaysian and someone who lives in a country in Malaysia that's literally a few minutes away from Singapore, this soundtrack and Singapore Speedway itself is one of my all time favourites.
I love everything about this track, it’s awesome it also has a banger theme. I think it’s my favourite track in Wave 4 by quite a way. This music reminds me a lot of Pokemon Sun and Moon.
WOW this is an improvement over the _Tour_ version! It's got more bass in the lead instead of it all being in the percussion. Lowering the lead in the B section an octave(?) really helps the song sound more fleshed out.
Listening to this before this year's F1 Singapore Grand Prix makes me think Nintendo missed a huge opportunity of featuring some bits of the real life Marina Bay Street Circuit in this track since Mario Kart and F1 are racing and that the Marina Bay Street Circuit is where the Singapore Grand Prix is held at
The Inklings have made it to Singapore
It’s sounds more like sonic music then splatoon music
the lyrics are actual real words in cantonese, english and malay :D
interesting i know
@@cybertifa no way! Do you know where I can find them?
@@DiffidentDennis RontoS has a lyric video :D
Damn y'all don't know shit ab music bc this is so obviously funk/electronic not splatoon or sonic sounding music lmao
If you're frontrunning on 150cc, you'll pretty much always hit the cannon on lap one at the exact moment the music kicks in, and that's AWESOME
For real
I think Nintendo intentionally did that
It can be timed right on 200cc too
On 200cc it kicks in when you land in the cannon
reminds me of mount wario
Lol 150cc is to slow for me.
As a casual frontrunner, I can confirm that it happens, and it feels so satisfying!
We already knew this song would sound great both from the music leak and then the trailer, but it’s still hard to put into words how amazing a glow up this was from Tour’s version! This one sounds so much more alive

When you can say that a song is "Sonic AF", you know it's good.
Unless it’s Sonic Chronicles
@@MySnugglePuppy Then again, that one was "composed" by a dude from BioWare and not SEGA.
If Singapore gets to keep its splatoon ass vocals I’m praying that Los Angeles can keep its new super mario bros “Bahs”
Edit: the bahs are gone…
So far there’s only 2 CITY Tour tracks left to remix
Vancouver Velocity and Los Angeles Laps
The 'bahs' in Los Angeles Laps' theme sound nothing like New Super Mario Bros..
@@ReduckYT_ There are more city courses remaining, currently unreleased.
@@ReduckYT_ Piranha Plant Cove: am I a joke to you?
Edit: they changed it to city courses so PPC is no longer a joke to them 🥳
I’m hopeful for that too! Especially since LA Laps is my favorite tour track!

Sydney Sprint ✅
Berlin Byways ✅
Singapore Speedway ✅

As a Filipino born and raised in Singapore, I absolutely freaked out when I saw this.
I love that the music is timed perfectly for the beat drop when you enter the cannon.
They did this track so much justice, still my favorite Tour track and couldn't be happier with how they remixed both this and the Chinatown versions
yk ninja hideaway is a tour track, right?
@@rlstevzz yes and no

I was lukewarm on this track at the start...then it ran up and slapped me in the face so indignantly i think it left a mark.
Same with the actual track, there's just so much going on, each lap feels special, and that's really enjoyable.
I raced on this course once and it’s now one of my favorites
all of this and singapore is still not a recognised switch online region 😔
Oof
I don't have switch online but my family set our region to Canada for our Wii u lol
To be fair, Singapore is one of the smallest countries in the world. It is simply smaller than the most petite dot a pen can produced. Nonetheless, I am glad Singapore is able to have the spotlight since both SG and Japan are simply close neighbours

Nintendo is avaiable in Singapore, I seen Singaporean players
Nah the tour version is nothing compared to this, they gave it such a huge glow up
0:28 really sounds like something out of Sonic Mania 😊
Singapore Speedway Zone Act 1
Not me listening to stardust speedway from sonic mania rn…
…this song came right afterwards, and they both have speedway in the name
My favorite track of this wave 🇸🇬🌃 The night ambience is just incredible ✨ Hope Vancouver Velocity would be on the pair with this 👀

I just hope that mario kart 8 improves the los angeles laps song. it's probably my least favourite song of any mario kart track in general.
Tour music is kinda mid in the original game, but in 8 they usually go hard. Exceptions are Ninja Hideaway, Sky High, Sundae, and Berlin Byways
@@Stratilex Are you saying they're exceptions because the Tour version is good or because the 8 version isn't?
@@Marshall.R Because the tour version is good. I think all the 8 remixes of tour tracks are better or at least good, but Amsterdam is a bit wacky lol
One of the best songs in the entire series, and definitely one of the best Tour tracks.
Every second cup of the wave has the best music for Tour tracks
The Waluigi Pinball of Tour I swear
Maybe one of the catchiest things I’ve ever heard in my life.
This stage is absolutely stunning. Try to convince me otherwise.
You know we really needed more city course remixes like this one
The Madrid one is pretty good too
We tour players knew this was gonna be a huge success for fans in general it’s just everything is top notch. And it seems MK devs knew this as well granting it the precious 4th slot to a city where in other waves is reserved to either nitro (/non city tour track how you wanna see it) or beloved retro track
i love how the first beat drops as soon as you drive over the launching glider boost in 150cc.
THIS SONG IS AMAZING, BEST TOUR THEME BY FAR
This is one of the best songs in the franchise period, and my God is the beat superior to the Tour version here. I really want to go to Singapore now.
This track looks, plays and sounds incredible, what a glow up from Tour!
Ever since the music leak, I was really excited to hear this remix and it was well worth the wait
0:29 - 0:43 got me addicted to this song
Heh. Welcome to the club
Feels like a Sonic game, a town from Splatoon, or Tokyo in the late-1990s.
0:42 The build up is great. It's a great upgrade when I compared this version to the Tour version.
This one gave me HUGE retro Sonic vibes. Really big fan.
This track has changed my mind on Tour city tracks. The music is awesome, it makes me feel like I’m going on a really cool vacation!
I love listening to this while simracing around the Singapore Street Circuit, it's just so good
The fact that this was originally supposed to START the Boomerang Cup before LA baffles me. Honestly glad Nintendo swapped some tracks around!
Am I the only one thinking that this sound like a song from an older sonic game? If someone would have told me that this is from Sonic CD I wouldn't have disagreed. Awesome!
*sounds
Something about it really reminds of Chemcial Plant zone.
100% and I was looking for this comment somewhere under here. I really feel like it sounds like a Sonic Mania-style remix of one of the old game songs.
@@TheDropdeadZed Yes!
It feels like a "Mania act 2" remix of a lost Sonic 2 zone which is awesome
0:51 - 1:00 feel the adrenaline rush.
This is an absolute perfect masterpiece. Among my new favorite tracks in the series for sure in both gameplay and music.
If I were to rank mario kart traks based on their music this would be S tier.
One of the most beautiful tracks in the game
All the tour remixes in this game makes some of the original tracks from that game seem like early demo tracks lol
I still prefer OG Berlin Byways at times, but it depends on the vibe I'm feeling -- both are good but they have slightly different atmospheres.
For most of 'em, though? The MK8 tracks are sensational.
First time I'm looking up a soundtrack from Mario games. I absolutely adore this vibe!
Welcome to the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe party! For me, Singapore is a good track and has the best Wave 4 soundtrack!
Agree!
Sheesh this remix bops so hard!!
Already in my top 3 city remixes along with Sydney & Berlin. Now all that's left is Vancouver
this is inarguably the best tour track
The music in this wave is full of all bangers and this is no exception! It's such a fantastic remix of an already great song, keeping the energy of the intro unlike the tour version. Tied with Dk Summit and Yoshi's Island for best music in the wave!
I am still mesmerized by this remix
its only been 2 months but it feels like yesterday
it's so good
this song is the bop man, the track is good. the song is awesome
I had a feeling from the music leak that this would sound good! As of this wave, the only other tracks whose music was leaked but has yet to appear are Los Angeles Laps, Vancouver Velocity and GBA Sunset Wilds, which I am almost confident will appear in the last two waves.
Considering next courses could be in the summer, LA Laps and Sunset Wilds would be perfect for that.
@@IncredibleLuigi Honestly, I agree, and Vancouver will probably be a wave 6 course since it's closer to winter
This track is both eye candy and ear candy. Nintendo absolutely killed it with Singapore and made it my new favorite track in the entire game.
Best song in the game
Getting launched through the cannon at 0:13 has me like:
SEGA quality music in this track. I love it!
Wave 4 will probably always have the best trailer of all waves and this song is the simple reason why
Such an epic and vibe song, makes me wanna go on a beach vacation so bad
It’s so hard to tell if this or Berlin is better. THEY’RE TOO GOOD.
W taste
0:53 best part kicks in
*Singapore Speedway* is my favourite track in the Boomerang Cup from the music alone, it's truly amazing! 🎧🎶❤
Please make an extended version, this is the best quality I've seen on here 🥺
I like how the vocals didn’t change from Tour
This song is incredible! I cant stop dancing like the goron from Ocarina of Time. Lets go!!!
Sonic Mania music
0:28 Studiopolis Zone is that you??
OK THEY WENT TOO HARD
I CANT FOCUS ON RACING WHEN YOU DROP THIS FIRE SHIT!
Makes me want to visit Singapore one day :)
This is just PERFECT the song is sooo good
The Korg M1 piano adds so much life to this version
🤓
just found out today that when you go into the Chinatown sections it plays this theme in a traditional chineese version! Nintendo really outdid themselves for wave 4 soundtracks
This track is pure bliss. Both the music and the visuals. A pleasure

This gives me huge summer vibes

But in all seriousness this is actually amazing

This is honestly on par with Berlin Byways as best Tour track ost in MK8D.
