    Final boss theme from DKC1 in pristine studio quality. This was made possible by locating the sounds from workstation keyboards and drum machines such as the Korg Wavestation, Roland S770, and Roland R8, and plugging them into the music instruction data ripped from the game, plus a little mixing magic to create might have sounded like with the veil of 16bit compression lifted. Part of a project to restore the entire DKC series soundtrack. Follow me on Twitter for more updates: / princesamlet

It was basically this exact boss fight except she was flying around shooting eggs at you instead of cannonballs.

    GameXplain: I was wondering if you’re familiar with [the D.K.C. restoration project].
    David Wise: I’m familiar with it. And it’s a bit of a misnomer, to be completely honest, because the whole palette was short little waves that we were taking. And because of the way the Super N.E.S. resynthesizes or upgrades from a 4-bit to a 16-bit sample, it’s got a certain warmth and a certain kind of sound to it. And having got those samples in that format, that’s what I worked with. That was my palette to work with all the time. So there never was and never did exist any better samples. I just took samples that I could use and then wrote with the samples and that palette, so it’s a - you know, I understand where they’re coming from, but there never was a higher-quality sample that it came from. That was the sample, and that’s as high as it ever got and would ever get.
