  • A long time ago, I noticed that the "Winning Results" music from #MarioKart 64 was in 11/8. Which in it of itself is pretty hilarious to me - I don't think it's all too common for video game music to be in such an odd time signature (LOL). So for a long while, I've wanted to compose some kind of groove around this "song" (just for fun!), & I finally got around to it!
    I don't play many video games, but I definitely played this one. It's one of the few games I can confidently say that I'm sick at. If I ever get the chance to play you, prepare to LOSE! (Lol amirite)
    At ANY rate, I've been quite busy as of late. Can't say with what just yet, but as a result I haven't had a ton of extra time to make new videos. I've got several on deck, but can't upload those just yet either (for one reason or another). So for now, I hope you will enjoy this lil' 11/8 MARIO KART JAM (which I believe was originally written by Kenta Nagata)!

    So glad Nintendo music was more adventurous then it seems like it needed to be. Probably the limitations of what one could do on the chips made the composers look away from the usual musical pillars, of harmony to make something stand out. I know ingested more then my share of this music when I was a kid and it Had a big influence on the way I think of music these days and write music these days. Fun stuff! Thanks for the vid !
