Donkey Kong Country 3 - Water World (Neon X remix)

Remix of the theme Water World from Donkey Kong Country 3 released on SNES An incredible underrated theme from the latest DKC that was released on Super Nintendo back in the days. I invested in a symphonic synthesizer a while ago. This is the first song I use it for where all strings, harps and xylophones comes from that. The style of this remix is really standing out from the rest you’re used to hear from me. It’s more inspired by my classical and cinematic side, which really is what I’ve grown up with since both my parents practiced classical music. I wanted to try it out for a variation to the synthwave I usually do. I hope this can set you in the mood it was intended for - mystical, beautiful and haunting. DKC3 is an amazing edition among Donkey Kong games, even without the musical genious of David Wise in this piece, Eveline Fischer did such a good job in finding the atmosphere and harmony for an underwater stage. One of my favourite underwater themes out there, no doubt. I focused a lot on the chords and harmony in this one, which is best represented from until the end which I especially wish for you guys to listen to, it’s for you! When I listen to it myself I realize I took much inspiration from the cinematic music of Skyrim. I hope you can appreciate this cinematic style as you’ve done with the synthwave, I will try to integrate it with the synthwave in the future as well. /Neon X #DonkeyKongCountry3 #WaterWorld #Remix
