This works so well in the acoustic soundfont! Really loved your addition of vocals and percussion to fill out the arrangement in the end. Excellent performance 👏
man the chord progression you made at 2:15 was so good that now I expect those chords whenever I listen to any other version of the song!! really, so beautiful!
The simplicity of this one really struck a nice chord with me (heh) A lot of arrangements will build off of the original and bring it to so many new places, but sometimes what you really need is an acoustic guitar and some lovely vocals to really bring forth the comfy vibes. Great work!
Can't argue with a nice guitar version of this tune! The vocals/light beat coming in later was a fun surprise that fleshes things out without getting too big. Nice one!
Glad to see you taking another crack at this one! I love how soft is feels compared to your other version, and that gentle percussion combined with the choir gives me chills!
Brings back memories. Dire Dire Docks was one of my favourite levels in Mario 64. I still remember being amazed when first going through that under water tunnel "theres another level here!"
Awesome stuff! I love your precision - you've got this sitting right in the pocket! And you've worked in the pads/percussion variation really nicely - it sounds so cohesive with the rest of the ensemble. Lovely production, too - the reverb and balance felt just right to me! I'm glad you were able to join us for this competition again :)
I love having your stuff on. It's fantastic for my DnD campaign. It's just the right level of hidden gems of great soundtracks. I love it! PS. Unironically love the cape. I'm gonna have to get one myself.
Lol we outta Collab sometime! Nice job. Hated this song as a kid due to hating underwater levels but it deft grew upon me retrying 20 years later as an adult rediscovering my childhood like 5-10 years ago.
There’s certainly a case to be made for that…but this awesome song doesn’t support your claim. SMW had some good tunes, (like in the forest!) but a song like Dire Docks takes Mario music to a whole ‘nother level. Plus SMW had no shell surfing…
The best SM64 song imo. Great work ❤
Thank you good sir. It’s such a good one

Glad to hear that! Thanks so much man
I love you man. Keep doing what you're doing. It helps
Thanks! Love comments like these
Wtf man this is such a bloody beaut of a cover
Haha thank you good sir
man the chord progression you made at 2:15 was so good that now I expect those chords whenever I listen to any other version of the song!! really, so beautiful!
That’s a big compliment when I can reprogram what you’re anticipating! Thanks!
"With an acoustic soundfont" 😂
This rendition has something special with the rhythm parts going nuts alongside the vocal backing choir midway through. This is working super well.
Stoked to read that. Thank you

Thanks so much dude! I try to keep it as true to the original as I can while still making it a cool arrangement 🙂
Your taste in video game music is immaculate
As is yours
When there were 5 CRGuitars on screen, it gave me the chills
That’s what I like to hear
This channel is a straight-up master class in how to cover video game music. Hail to the King!
Damn dude that’s a huge compliment. Thank you!
Can't argue with a nice guitar version of this tune! The vocals/light beat coming in later was a fun surprise that fleshes things out without getting too big. Nice one!
Glad to hear that. Thank you!
It's Monday. You drop the best acoustic cover of a song that already has like 10,000 covers out there. I vacuumed.
Now that’s a heavy title to hold!! Thanks so much man
The best song by M64, and one of the best interpretations I've ever seen! Incredible!!! Congratulations! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you so much! There are so many good covers of it
Your voice is so beautiful omg!!!
Thanks so much!
This slowly progressed into the most fat, plumpy, delicious arrangement of this song I've ever heard
You definitely want your songs juicy ❤️
Glad to see you taking another crack at this one! I love how soft is feels compared to your other version, and that gentle percussion combined with the choir gives me chills!
So happy to hear that! And am I ever glad I redid this one as I missed so much the first time
Brings back memories. Dire Dire Docks was one of my favourite levels in Mario 64. I still remember being amazed when first going through that under water tunnel "theres another level here!"
I remember thinking that too!! I miss that feeling
I unironically listen to the original N64 version weekly. Now I have your tasty cover to go alongside it! Banger as always CR!
Stoked to hear that! Thank you 🙂
dude. thats awesome
My favorite Mario 64 song. Brings back so many childhood memories mostly me drowning but still very nostalgic. Nice work as always👍
I suppose it’s fitting that a water level song is so… breathtaking. Heh
the most cozy mario64 tune. nice work sir.
It really is! Thank you
One of my favorite VGM tunes! Really great arrangement!
One of mine too. Thanks!
Another certified classic bro, I swear you do not miss 🔥
Give me enough time and I’m sure to miss
Great work, expected nothing less from you 👏🏼
Means a lot coming from a pro arranger like yourself! Thank you dude
@@CRGuitarr I just tells it how I sees it

Thanks man - really appreciate the detailed review! I love your competition and it’s my pleasure to be a part of it again!
amazing master, always giving us a good & relax moment with your covers
Happy to do it!
Awesome dude!! Loved when the voices and the percussion came in!
Tried to make that part sound like heaven!
I love having your stuff on. It's fantastic for my DnD campaign. It's just the right level of hidden gems of great soundtracks. I love it!
PS. Unironically love the cape. I'm gonna have to get one myself.
That’s so freakin cool to know that I’m someone’s DnD music!
And we must bring back capes
This classic is so pretty on acoustic, great job bro! Really nailed the ambience of it
Glad to hear I got the aquatic ambience right, heh
Makes you wanna go swimming for coins! Great redo!
Absolutely! Thanks man
You have such a nice sound on those guitars! I love the buildup into the second half
Love when people notice a detail I put effort into. Thanks 🙂
The views on your channel should be at least 100x what they are, this is all masterful stuff. Keep going please!!
Wow that’s a great compliment to hear! Thank you and I will
Gorgeous!
Thanks!
Man those vocals and percussion really take it to 11. I liked your first version of DDD also but this one is really something special!
Thanks man. Looking back at my first attempt, I left out so many parts and it irked me to no end!
Beautiful playing and vocals!
Thanks!
Virtue signal!!! I just bought this man a “kofi” and now I’m going to play the entire playlist. Support the arts! (Unless they are terrible) 🍻🎮👏👏👏
Quality virtue signal my dude! Thanks so much for the kofi!
@@CRGuitarr You’re very welcome! Happy to throw a few bucks in your guitar cases.
Awesome!
Thanks brother!
Really nice faithful acoustic rendition!
Thank you! I put a lot of thought into it 🙂
Very beautiful catchy rendition
Thanks man!
Awesome work! Such welcome additions to a great track!
Glad you like it friend
I guess I gotta do it now too
Do it bro
Great performance! Love the percussive beat too!
It took me a long time to figure out that bass drum pattern! Thanks for noticing
Great cover, love the fingerstyle twang you add to these pieces
hope to see some spyro covers soon sooonnnnn 🙈🥶
Happy to hear that! Thank you
AMAZING MAN ! great job !
Thanks so much!
Such a better mix! You’ve come such a long way from 3 years ago!
I’ve made many mistakes to learn from! Thank you 🙂
I love this song so much. Very nice!
Thank you! Me too
You never dissappoint!
That’s what I like to hear!
Guitars? In my Dire Dire Docks?
It's more likely than you think.
Sounds great!
On this channel it’s almost a certainty. Thank you!
I remember hearing this when it was new. One of the best Mario songs ever! I will buy you some “Kofi” later to support the arts. Cheers.
It’s a popular classic for a reason! Thank you bro you are a gem
Good!
Thank you friend
*soul stares back
.. and fails
There’s always next time my dude
Dude... perfect!
Wow, thanks!
Super chill 😎
Hell yeah brother
I see what you did with the title LOL
Sounds awesome
Heheh. The algo has been pushing those videos at me so much so I decided to push back
Whooo! This was cool!
Thanks man!
Lol we outta Collab sometime! Nice job. Hated this song as a kid due to hating underwater levels but it deft grew upon me retrying 20 years later as an adult rediscovering my childhood like 5-10 years ago.
Hell yeah man this song was an absolute nostalgia bomb for me! Why do water levels suck so much yet they have the best music?
@@CRGuitarr haha truth. My son made me realize how good the original nes Mario Bros water music is. That shit is his jam.
This was so good!!!😊
Thank you! I’m happy to hear that
Can I give a request? Because, I was wondering if you had the time to play Marble Zone from Sonic the Hedgehog.
I will absolutely do this one in the next couple of months. Thanks for such a solid request
🤩
Excellent
Thanks my friend!
Awesome man
Thanks dude
@@CRGuitarr you're welcome
It was only a matter of time.
I actually did it a few years ago as one of my first covers but I absolutely butchered it!
@@CRGuitarr its so common I have probable listened to that one and forgot it was made since so many people cover this one and rightfully so!
Can I have 1997 back please cause after hearing this....I just wanna go back just for one time.
I’d like that too plz
The title 😂
Had to push back on the SM64 soundfont videos!
Always enjoy your playing. I've been wondering, what's the best way to reach you about a commission?
Thank you!! Best way to reach me is either on instagram or discord
Morning)))
And good morning to you!
Almost as good as Kirk Hammet... almost ... :P
Ahahahha needed more pentatonic wankery
hehehheh, man, forget that guy. He doesn't even kayak! @CRGuitar is our guy! ;)
Idk wth "acoustic soundfont" means i guess just pretentious acoustic guitars well whatever it is sounds NOICE
from my husband, "ok waiting for the copypasta" me "I don't think there is one" brad: "what, he played a whole song, is he ok?!"
I’m NOT ok and thanks for asking. Also you know for a fact that I’m pretentious AF
you found an undersea tone to your guitars - how??
Haha I don’t even know. Got another undersea song coming up soon though!
Super Mario World > Mario 64!
Translate to English
At the time of its release I liked SM64 way more but I gotta say SMW has for sure aged better. You win this one, SNES diehard
There’s certainly a case to be made for that…but this awesome song doesn’t support your claim. SMW had some good tunes, (like in the forest!) but a song like Dire Docks takes Mario music to a whole ‘nother level. Plus SMW had no shell surfing…
@@joshuacalkins too real
🩶
This acoustic soundfont isn’t very realistic sounding. Much too clean
Damnit!
I'll always take more covers of DireDire.docx Nice job cr!
Lol .docx. Thank you
