Y’all should do a full Mario Galaxy Album, and I’m not even kidding. If InsaneInTheRain can do a full Jazz remake of EVERY OST from Pokemon Platinum, then your studio would be perfect for this ultimate project. It would take a lot of time, but at least then, the world would be complete. Charlie Rosen, you’ve not only expressed how huge of a Mario fan you are, but also how the Super Mario Galaxy album has made you feel - saying it’s “a shining example of how great video game music can be!” You and I both know how much of an honor it would be to further adapt this amazing album into a complete project - so please keep this in mind. YOU have the power to create such a masterpiece.
I always loved the theme of this stage. One would think that discarded, abandoned junk floating about would feel desolate, feel dead, feel polluted… but no. They may as well be a part of nature, in this grand universe. No less welcome among the stars than anything else.
Haha, thank you, I can't help but inject a little levity into everything I make, even I'm trying to go for a more peaceful and slow approach to what I'm animating. Can't resist!
High sax, stopped horn, and vocals is such an interesting combination for the melody. I've played melody with sax before, but not with vocals and not stopped. Absolutely unique and I love it! Edit: this whole arrangement is insane and I don't even know where to start thinking about it. It's so complex and yet so dreamy and relaxing.
I had a very personal attachment to this song when I first started learning music, so it’s such a nice surprise to see and hear this cover of it! Keep up the amazing work!! ❤
From 4:50 onward really calls to mind the ending of Gustav Holst’s “Neptune the Mystic”. I think it’s the interplay of the piano, woodwinds and voices; it’s got that same ethereal quality. ❤
As a former longtime Viola player, that part immediately jumped out to me, the call and response too. In a traditional orchestra or full symphonic setup with woodwind and brass, if there's 'sololy' parts given to the strings, it's usually violin and cello, not Viola. A lot of our setup usually had violins split between first and second, with the second violins usually having a support role to the overall score of a bridge between the higher melodies of the first violins and the higher of the lower registered group starting with the Violas.
I've been listening to this arrangement for 10 seconds and it's already one of the most ethereal and amazing pieces I've heard. Thank you so much for your incredible covers!
I have always said that this is one of the most underrated songs from the Galaxy OSTs, and I love seeing it get recognition on this channel. Also nice to seeing this video back on the website, I missed this song when y'all removed it for audio reasons. xD
Words can’t explain how much your writing has inspired me and many others. And the fact that you have all these amazing musicians to play your beautiful interpretations of video game music, you must feel so lucky.
You can tell whenever the camera's on her that she's genuinely having fun and I think it shows in her performance. You can't teach joy, but it's such an essential skill for a musician.
When I read this, I kept rewinding trying to figure out what part of the solo was referencing I Can't Help It... eventually I gave up and kept listening and that's when I noticed the chord progression.
This magnificent melody has been transformed into a timeless masterpiece that will transcend the concept of time reality as we know it. Such a rendition of this song is deserves all the awards it deserves because this is a melody that creates the pinnacle of thematic appeal. I give this a ranking of LIFE CHANGING/10. Thank you for making a rendition of the song I could’ve never imagined before. Yours truly a fellow Mario fan.
What a beautiful arrangement! The original melody was ingenious in doing so much with so little accords and you guys took it as a challenge, balancing out harmonies with complexity. If you ever manage to adopt most or all tracks from Galaxy, I'm so gonna play the game with your arrangements playing! I'm so proud of all of you at the 8-Bit Big Band!
That's amazing!! It really remember me some great times! I was always paying attention to the music when playing Mario Galaxy and other games. It's really good that i'm remembering those great songs so i can play it sometime in my Piano. Just need to study.
I was so sad when the notification i got to listen to this the first time it was posted led to a dead end. I'm so glad it's back up! It was 100% worth the wait! Excellent job y'all!
With every new arrangement, composition, cover, or whatever comes from them always puts the biggest happiest smile on my face instantly, and this is no exception. Thank you for another masterpiece for us all to enjoy forever, Charlie. 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
I love love love this arrangement, goddamn. Like right from 0:01 with that piano motif ugh 😩And the viola feature at the end was so pretty. Also eat your heart out, Kenny G!
🌟I meant to comment on this so many times...but I spent so much time rewinding I forgot to write! My fave part is here💓 4:04 the flute and piano descending together is JUST HEAVENLY. 🥰🥰🥰
Love this! I recognize the vocalist from your Aquatic Ambience video from year's ago, and the vocals were one of my favorite parts of that arrangement, too! Well done all!
“More Mario Galaxy” We all say in unison!
THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN
More Mario Galaxy
Yoshi star galaxy would go crazy
More mario galaxy!!! As a person who's listened to the SMG soundtracks for almost a thousand hours... this stuff makes me so happy, keep it coming
More Mario galaxy!

I've thought about this.. it really is one of the greatest OSTs ever, the melodic writing is so good it is a master class in scoring for visual media
@@The8BitBigBandI think it has Magnum Opus potential Charlie. It would be an amazing side project :) May the Grammys beware!
This is an incredible idea! I would love to see this happen.
@@The8BitBigBand Do it!
@The8BitBigBand
Within a heartbeat, I would buy this on vinyl and cd!!!
Throwing my vote into the ‘Make an entire Mario Galaxy’ album I can pay you for hat please.
If this is space junk then cover us in garbage forever

The quality of the recorded music that 8-Bit Big Band is producing is among the best of all 2020's music. It's a breath of fresh air. Excellent!
The most gorgeous Lydian mode song in all of the cosmos
Charlie's best arrangement yet! Sam Dillon is on point as always.
Actually being tasteful for once hahah
@@The8BitBigBand True LOL (but he's unbelievable on tenor too, his chops on Gourmet Race were unreal)
Props to the animator for the video, absolutely love the spoing that starts floating across at 3:45
Haha, thank you, I can't help but inject a little levity into everything I make, even I'm trying to go for a more peaceful and slow approach to what I'm animating. Can't resist!

I swear to god they don't miss, next album gonna send me into a fever dream
I had a very personal attachment to this song when I first started learning music, so it’s such a nice surprise to see and hear this cover of it! Keep up the amazing work!! ❤
To say this arrangement is lush is an UNDERSTATEMENT. I am in love.
From 4:50 onward really calls to mind the ending of Gustav Holst’s “Neptune the Mystic”. I think it’s the interplay of the piano, woodwinds and voices; it’s got that same ethereal quality. ❤
Wouldn't be the first time Mario Galaxy got compared to Holst!
now we're talkin baby
I died and assended into blissful peaceful space thru this masterpiecs
That viola part at 4:13 is just SO lovely! You never hear violas being featured like that. Like a nice alto singer 😉🥹
That part onward is just insane, im obsessed

The cheeky tribute to 'I Can't Help It' is so genius!!!

Underrated by who? This is one of the more popular tracks, right next to Gusty Garden.
its not popular enough in my book
Words can’t explain how much your writing has inspired me and many others. And the fact that you have all these amazing musicians to play your beautiful interpretations of video game music, you must feel so lucky.
unbelievably gorgeous arrangement here.. fantastic work 🥺❤️
Natalie is so good on piano! I love the scales she plays for the intro/outro, it's really mesmerizing
You can tell whenever the camera's on her that she's genuinely having fun and I think it shows in her performance. You can't teach joy, but it's such an essential skill for a musician.
that soprano sax solo was insane!
Man that transition around 3:40 was INSANE - amazing work!
This is so amazing! This band never fails
I couldn't tell if I was getting cold or if I was getting genuine chills from this
2:42 Michael Jackson - I Can't Help It reference spotted!
You caught me, I just couldn't help it hahah
@@The8BitBigBand This new upload was a nice musical trip.
He would have been a huge Mario Galaxy fan
@@The8BitBigBandthat was super smooth
When I read this, I kept rewinding trying to figure out what part of the solo was referencing I Can't Help It... eventually I gave up and kept listening and that's when I noticed the chord progression.
When I saw the notification pop up I couldn’t WAIT to get home and listen to it, and now I’m playing it on loop! Thank you so much!
This legit made me tear up a little bit... i would LOVE more mario galaxy songs from you guys!!
Mario Galaxy continues to have one of the best sound tracks of all time and I love your version of this song
Can't help but notice Can't Help It
brilliant! i love it when you explore different ways of orchestrating!
I booked a flight and tickets to the Boston show in December after watching this ❤⭐️
I'm back from the show, it was amazing
My favorite Christmas song of all time and one of the best arrangements I’ve ever heard. You are so talented with so many instruments! Amazing!
What a beautiful version of one of the best songs from the OST. You guys rock!

Legitimately spellbound by this video from the first second. This is so delightfully beautiful and ethereal in the best ways.
This is so beautifullll! It sounds almost romantic, it reminds me of the space dance in Wall-E
You don't know how loud I yelled when I scrolled past this community post on my reccomendations. you guys knocked this out of this world!
I haven't had my face light up listening to an 8bbb song since the first album- This arrangement blew me away!

Amazing, life changing, spectacular, awesome, beautiful, helpful, educational
Absolutely beautiful. Fantastic arrangement, production, playing, and more (as usual!).
That subtle nod to Michael Jackson gave me goosebumps 🥰🥰🥰
Absolutely incredible performance of such an iconic piece. Y'all once again knocked it out of the park! Best arrangement of this piece I've heard yet.
Amazing talent! Thanks for putting this together
Cried at this, a wave of nostalgia and residual emotions from other things. Honestly helped let me go of certain feelings. Beautiful arrangement
That's amazing!! It really remember me some great times! I was always paying attention to the music when playing Mario Galaxy and other games. It's really good that i'm remembering those great songs so i can play it sometime in my Piano. Just need to study.

Absolute perfect! ♥♥
The cymbals on the chorus at 2:08 sound fantastic! (But so does this entire song)
Compiling several of your songs to use for my wedding 😍
