    Rare had the best beats by far. Amazing music. David Wise was a composer at Rare from 1985 to 2009. "I was working in a music shop demonstrating a Yamaha CX5 Music Computer to a couple of people, Tim & Chris Stamper. I'd written and programmed the music for the demonstration material. They offered me a job." - David Wise. He is credited as the composer for this music.

      Jammin’ Sam Miller’s restoration of this is incorrect. Half of the samples he used were the incorrect ones and it’s clearly audible. I’m surprised nobody notices it. This video is accurate and uses the correct samples. (or at least way more accurate ones than Jammin’ Sam Miller.)

    He replied: "Sure thing, just keep playing this level bro, you'll see it eventually...."

    My favourite part is the first half. That baseline & melody is so good! And to think it comes from a game about Donkey Kong!?
    Wise went above and beyond with this game. 30 years later and DK Country’s soundtrack is still iconic.

    Love your work! It's great hearing these tracks the way I remember them. What is that tom drum sample from? Never found anything else quite like it, always loved it. :D

    I’m suddenly back at my Grandparents house and all of my cousins are there. We are all taking turns to try and beat the Crystal Cave. Our parents are calling us to dinner..... back in the good old days
