This game has the greatest soundtrack of all time

Grant Kirkhope knew how to do a lot with the 64. Only first party games have better music.

it's the worst donkey kong game ever made. it seems to be very popular with children and paedophiles for some reason, but no serious gamer ever played this festering pile of broken shit.

Regardless of:
>my feelings of this game
>that I think Banjo Kazooie's/Tooie soundtrack is better
>that I think Donkey Kong Country has a better soundtrack
I do think Donkey Kong 64's soundtrack ellicits the best atmosphere of 3D Rareware. Gloomy Galleon and Fungi Forest are especially notable in this department where they just tell a story on it's own and really make you feel like you're in that era and not just a video game world.

The noises in Tropical Freeze are so bad that it almost ruins the game. The Grant Kirkhope voice was fine for DK64, but I dunno if it should be brought back. Generic ape noises? Meh. Over all, I like the deep voice grunting noises that Rare did.

>> No.8760367

>>8755803
extremely based.

>>8755990
every version of this theme is so fucking good. agree with the gloomy galleon love too. the OST for this shit is just downright atmospheric while still sounding like great music, it creates a whole world with just a song along.

hell even angry aztec for example has a super catchy theme that perfectly compliments the environment and could make you construct it mentally on your own. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gyp-AELnlzU

and as briefly mentioned before all the different variations and songs that use leitmotifs from elsewhere in the game are fantastic. tons of work put in to give every area of the worlds their own personality twist.
