    I absolutely refused to make a Banjo-Kazooie medley until I had some idea of the gameplay, so I'm currently in the process of playing Banjo-Kazooie for the first time (on Twitch! twitch.tv/karacomparetto). And boy am I glad I decided to do it- it's totally up my alley! Silly, cute graphics, great music, just overall a fantastic game. So far I have several great memories, such as grabbing the eekum-bokums, pooping eggs into the toilet, and voice acting Gruntilda's rhymes.
    I grew up playing Donkey Kong 64, which to this day I'll declare is a great game, but little did I know it was completely based off of Banjo-Kazooie. I know I would've loved this game as a kid!
    As with my Donkey Kong medley, I couldn't have made this recording without some wonderful arrangers, who are as follows:
    Main Theme - ‪@SmartPianoSchool‬
    Spiral Mountain - Olimar12345
    Gruntilda's Lair - The Deku Trombonist
    Mumbo's Mountain - The Deku Trombonist
    Treasure Trove Cove - Sebastian
    Clanker's Cavern - The Deku Trombonist
    Bubblegloop Swamp - The Deku Trombonist
    Freezeezy Peak - ‪@SmartPianoSchool‬
    Gobi's Valley - The Deku Trombonist
    Mad Monster Mansion - The Deku Trombonist
    Rusty Bucket Bay - The Deku Trombonist
    Click Clock Wood - Keeper1st
    Thank you to Grant Kirkhope for composing the music!
    Thank you to Ninjafish for spending many many hours to make this crazy long video!!
    And thank you to Gerald for the plushies :D

      Thanks for the response. Your beautiful renditions bring me to nostalgic tears often. This should have a million views ☺️ Grant Kirkhope wrote all these compositions and he’s very active on social media, especially twitter, and posts about BK practically every day. A little before Christmas, he played Freezeezy Peak on a kazoo and keyboard. If somehow he doesn’t know about this video, that should promptly be remedied because he would fundamentally, completely, and utterly adore it. So I need to try and send it to him. 😊

    We truly were fortunate, those us that grew up with the music to these games. Rich melodies, interesting chord progression, sometimes even complex time signatures. But in games about apes and bears collecting stuff. The arrangements are so on point in this and the playing is so clean and accurate. New, big fan.
