@Haven i have both on n64 now, and they both have their good qualities. I prefer tooies length, gameplay variety, trivia game and interwoven worlds, while liking kazooies music, humour, rhymes, environments and overall performace better. The final battle is equally sick in both games.
It will be very weird when N64s are close to 100 years old… will they still work?? I was 4 when they came out so it is feasible I’ll be playing a 80+ year old N64 one day… 20s flew by quick I’m sure we’re only a blink away from old age
Grant Kirkhope puts so much feeling into his music each piece perfectly thematic to the game or level composed for, both Grant Kirkhope and Koji Kondo are who ignited a love for music in me at a young age
Can we talk about how seamlessly they flow into each other? That's incredible and greatly appreciated. You could have just cut and paste each one but you really went the extra mile.
Idk why but I love the transition from the freezeezy peak version to the gobi valley one sm. It's cool to go from Christmas to stranded in the middle of the Sahara.
@@Gastro-enterite-en-imax It gives me chills. Not only does it sound good, but there's something about it being the final world in the game that adds to its allure-especially when you accidentally discover Click Clock Wood's late-game puzzle room, with the pad missing and the frame devoid of all those Jiggies.
This was such a great game, Microsoft hear our words. Let us reunite with the bear and bird! I loved this game, and the battle with the witch, this games needs to come to the Switch!
Honestly such an underrated game with an amazing sense of imagination fun creativity and isn't afraid to have fun with itself, the soundtrack is something we are missing in most games these days they just don't do it like they used to anymore
Wow, you just blew my fucking mind. I have never heard of that song until your comment. Just looked it up. What an amazing reference for music and a fun little easter egg.
I was watching that new Mike Myers series “The Pentaverate” and they played the Teddy Bear’s Picnic at one point which I had never heard before but it immediately reminded me of Banjo-Kazooie so I did some research and ended up here! 😂
Music is everything. It sets the tone, instills emotions, and sticks in our head even decades later. I can get the most advanced stage of dementia but I will never forget this song.
When these game studios made so much efford for 1 song. Different tones. For each area. Still 1 song. This is so amazing. Ill never forget how i loved to play this game
Well go figure. I just downloaded the older version yesterday and now this one's out. Still this one does sound notably better. You keep doing your awesome thing man!
TheSinglePlayer Thanks man! Admittedly my original version used the CD version of the normal music, the aquatic was a bad quality rip, and the rest I recorded with line-in, then amplifying each track to the highest point before clipping. Those were all really really terrible mistakes. This time they were all ripped from the USFs as a 48000hz 32-bit WAV and now not amplifying anything, then exported as WAV. Hopefully everyone's ears will be pleased.
MoldyPond Rest assured that my ears are very pleased with everything you've done. I am always exited to see (or I suppose hear) anything that you've done.
Grant Kirkhope sampling Teddy Bear's Picnic in this song is legit the best sample of all time. It gives such a fairy tale/childhood vibe that's unbeatable. And Grunty's laugh just being the same sound but repeated with reverb is so good. It reminds me of the Boos in Mario 64.
I’ve thought about this for a rareware gamer’s lifetime and this is Grant Kirkhope’s best composition of all in my eyes (ears). You gotta understand; I grew up with DK64 and Goldeneye, both of which I have nostalgic and objective favorings toward, but... this one just wins, dude. It’s such a strong, catchy, brilliant, shiftable, perfect theme.
@JRyanC_ Yeah, this is a song that shares basic melodic structure at certain points, it definitely doesn’t take away Grant’s originality and ability to recontextualize the song for 10 different settings and also then transpose it into a final boss theme of its own and then also, he has the ability to shred said song on guitar where most composers don’t even perform their own songs. This is like one person throwing some beef on a bun vs The most gourmet burger meal ever made at a 5 star restaurant.
As the clever Alex Yard has put it, this song is such a dynamic tune to listen to... The different variations only enhance mysteriousness of it. Plus, with the addition of the tritone substitution during that bassoon section start at 1:00 (The colourful chords at 1:04 and 1:09) only makes the theme so catchy... Almost as if there is a clandestine element to travelling through Grunty's Lair.
I just wanted to say thanks for making and uploading this. I come back to this often for a background song to get shit done. I love Banjo & Kazooie music, no doubt, but as to why these songs get me motivated, I couldn't tell you. So yeah, thanks!
Sei que tem um ano, mas existe um ROM totalmente traduzido, e muito bem traduzido por sinal, em PT-BR. Até as rimas da Gruntilda foram traduzidas perfeitamente.
I remember this as a kid (Getting up every morning to turn on my ND64 to play this wonderful game). I miss them good old days. I'm hoping they add Banjo & Kazooie to the Nintendo Switch (I'm 25)
Love this game! I always loved,since I was a kid,that the lair changed song near levels or paintings! My favorite version was the freezezy peak one(back in the days with no internet I usually put on the game and spent time chilling on gruntilda lair freezezy peak entrance just to listen the music),nowadays is click clock wood version,in reality all the soundtrack is a masterpiece! While my favorite level is mad monster mansion
There was something unsettling about this game which is why I loved it as a kid. Those were my favorite types of things. My favorite movies were The Dark Crystal and Return to Oz
I know the Banjo soundtrack and DK64 sound fairly similar, but I always picture the Kongs as the band playing the Banjo soundtrack with their instruments.
Nice job using the best version of each clankers cavern, bubblegloop swamp, and gobis valley, even though for bubblegloop swamp it's the picture instead of the entrance room.
Nice catch! It's something I didn't realize until many years after first playing the game that for most of the levels there's two different versions of the lair theme and that one of them is more "full" than the other :D
@@noname-jt6kl Hmm, I'm only going off of memory here so I'm probably wrong. Mumbo's Mountain is the same for both since they're both in the exact same area.
@@MoldyPond no, i still play regularly so im 100% sure. The entrance is fine, but going up the path to the picture would change the music back to normal for some reason.
I gotta get this game again. Playing it on Xbox sucks lowkey. The Stop and Swop secrets with using the Sand Castle in Treasure Trove actually showed you where the secrets are by typing them in.
0:00 Normal (first variation)
2:00 Mumbo's Mountain
3:13 Treasure Trove Cove
3:53 Clanker's Cavern
5:04 Bubblegloop Swamp
5:48 Freezeezy Peak
6:58 Gobi's Valley
7:42 Aquatic
8:52 Normal (second variation)
9:34 Mad Monster Mansion
10:46 Rusty Bucket Bay
11:28 Click Clock Wood
12:39 Grunty's Furnace Fun
Thanks bud! Totally forgot to put these in the info.
@@MoldyPond If you put it on the description it will separate the video in chapters, wich is way easier to navigate! ;)
@@rodrigold6247 Thanks a bunch, I've been wondering how that function works for awhile now!
@@MoldyPond 4 years later 😂
I remixed Gruntilda's theme tho!
ruclips.net/video/xQJGMZCWk6Y/видео.html
I have legitimately had this stuck in my head since 1998
Here since 2010 :D
2011 :)
Me since 2004
I whistle this at work, people always tell me it sounds familiar😁
Same 1998
I just noticed that Gruntilda has the n64 logo as her ring
I don't see it
@@Mahier_theguy 3rd finger just under the "designed for N64 Rumble pak"
Ty
I never noticed that if didn't for your comment
she is fucking married to a n64
This place is no teddy bear's picnic...
Gotta appreciate these tunes because something tells me we’ll never get a game close this ever again. Such a masterpiece seriously!
It's very unique.
Yes
@Lode nothing like the original n64
@Haven i have both on n64 now, and they both have their good qualities. I prefer tooies length, gameplay variety, trivia game and interwoven worlds, while liking kazooies music, humour, rhymes, environments and overall performace better. The final battle is equally sick in both games.
@@noname-jt6kl I'd say Kazooie is alot better moment to moment, but Tooie has a more interesting world, characters and boss battles.
This is unironically one of my favorite pieces of music in gaming history.
Yeah, Grant Kirkhope is a beast.
I cant wait to be 90 years old and humming Banjo Kazooie tunes
I can wait being old sucks Ive heard
The original melody is coincidentally from a 90 year old song “the teddy bears picnic”
And cackling like Gruntilda
@@Stevetrades She has the best witchy laugh ever.
It will be very weird when N64s are close to 100 years old… will they still work?? I was 4 when they came out so it is feasible I’ll be playing a 80+ year old N64 one day… 20s flew by quick I’m sure we’re only a blink away from old age
"It really does sound quite absurd,
Adventure of a bear and bird!"
"When I'm nice and thin once more,
Burgers, fries, and chips galore!"
I heard this in Grunty’s voice
It was so amazing hearing the music change depending on which entrance you were near, such a magical masterpiece of childhood.
I appreciate that there isn’t a sudden cutoff between songs. Great to listen to while doing my college studies.
I read that as “doing my college students” I’m a sick person😂😂😂
@@PresidentPixel lol 😂
This song is so great, it entertains me / It makes it easy to work for my degree
Exactly! 😆
@@PresidentPixel 😂😂 why Not?!
Shotouts to the amazing music for Grunty's Furnace Fun that was literally used in ONE room
One TINY room*, might I add lol
Sad fact.
Just shows the power of Grant Kirkhope
glad im not the only one who just stood in there for no good reason to listen to that shit
@@kezisthename No you're not, bro
This is damn near making me cry. Wish I could go back to playing this when I was younger
5 more years until I'm 40, ;P Yeah I'd like to be a teen again.
Same fam
Grant Kirkhope puts so much feeling into his music each piece perfectly thematic to the game or level composed for, both Grant Kirkhope and Koji Kondo are who ignited a love for music in me at a young age
This game’s presentation is 10/10. They dont make em like this anymore. Glad I got to experience it back in the day
Not looking hard enough.
It wouldn't be the same without Grunty's laugh
During the Freezy Peak part I still hear that damn snowman laughing although it's no even there.
Can we talk about how seamlessly they flow into each other? That's incredible and greatly appreciated. You could have just cut and paste each one but you really went the extra mile.
Thanks a bunch :D
Wouldn't seem right without it.
Yep, it replicates the style of the games music perfectly.
Grant kirkhope sure made some magic with his work in music
@@MoldyPond you did an excellent job! As a cinematic student myself. Sound editing is hard lol
My favorite is the fade into treasure trove cove and freezeezy peak
I hate hub worlds in most games but an ever changing catchy tune like this always makes me push on forward
The hub world was almost my favorite thing in this game
Why is that?? 🤔
Persona 4/5’s hub worlds are pretty lit 🔥
Not a fan of Mario 64 I take it
@@Lieutenant_Dude yeah, i almost don't look at it as a hub world it's that good, and only when I saw this comment did I think about that.
Idk why but I love the transition from the freezeezy peak version to the gobi valley one sm. It's cool to go from Christmas to stranded in the middle of the Sahara.
So many rainy days in the summer playing this game. Takes me back
It just hit me, the 25th anniversary since Banjo Kazooie's release is this year!
Click Clock Wood is my favorite.
Its the best one
Same. I remember the chills it invoked in my 8 year old self when I first heard it in the lobby near Clanker’s Cavern.
@@Gastro-enterite-en-imax It gives me chills. Not only does it sound good, but there's something about it being the final world in the game that adds to its allure-especially when you accidentally discover Click Clock Wood's late-game puzzle room, with the pad missing and the frame devoid of all those Jiggies.
This was such a great game, Microsoft hear our words. Let us reunite with the bear and bird! I loved this game, and the battle with the witch, this games needs to come to the Switch!
I just want a remake of the games, or better yet, a Banjo threeie.
@@Diego-sb1bw: That would be cool
@@nathanbyberg yeah man, that would be perfect.
MY BOII GUESS WHAT KINDA HAPPEND?
I believe your wish was awesomely granted,
Let's hope their memory has not slanted.
Adventure, mystery and wonder sublime,
This feeling in games will be lost to time.
Probably the Best soundtrack ever.. so mysterious so haunting yet intriging
This takes me back in a way you cannot imagine... 😓
Honestly such an underrated game with an amazing sense of imagination fun creativity and isn't afraid to have fun with itself, the soundtrack is something we are missing in most games these days they just don't do it like they used to anymore
Now you get shitters like 2077 that are wooden as fuck boring as ever and have the most embarrassing soundtrack
@@getwetgary I feel like game designers lost touch and despite them trying they just can't do it like they used too
Anything but underrated. This game was very popular back in its day. Everyone with a 64 had Banjo-Kazooie..
Underrated? lmao
Underrated?
Its literally in the Top 10 best selling N64 games
Every year at E3 I pray for a Banjo-Threeie
next time,next time...
Don't we all.... I don't even have a modern console, yet I hope and pray that those who do will be able to experience it someday.....
microsoft made banjo threeie into a abomination called "nuts n bolts"
Nuts & Bolts
Nuts & Bolts was at one point in development, Banjo Threeie
I was today years old when I found out they used “the teddy bears picnic” for the theme of the castle and it makes the game 100xs better
Same!!! 😂😂😂
What’s Teddy Bear’s picnic? What castle?
Me too!! 😂😂
I love how you seamlessly switch between the different versions like it does naturally in the game. Well done!
I could be slowly bleeding to death and Gruntildas' witchy laugh would still put a smile on my face.
Thank you so much for putting the effort in to do this
How long it took me before realising it is based on Teddy Bears’ Picnic
Wow, you just blew my fucking mind. I have never heard of that song until your comment. Just looked it up. What an amazing reference for music and a fun little easter egg.
Grant Kirkhope went on record saying it wasn't intentional, that it may have snuck in subconsciously.
I was watching that new Mike Myers series “The Pentaverate” and they played the Teddy Bear’s Picnic at one point which I had never heard before but it immediately reminded me of Banjo-Kazooie so I did some research and ended up here! 😂

Many a long night were spent playing this game, the memories, I love it, nice work.
My 2 years old daughter loves this tune because I always sing it to her while we are playing. I think my parenthood job is done here!
Tears in my eyes. Weird how one video can take you back to the best days you had.
Absolute masterpiece of a game and a soundtrack
Whoever made the tune can mash up themes perfectly.
Do You mean Grant Kirkhope?
So much memories playing this game as a kid, good times before.
Mad Monster Mansion is my favourite variation.
Mine too! That was my favorite level
@@nathanbyberg I actually meant in terms of the variation of this music. My favourite level was Freezeezy Peak!
Please don't ever delete this.
I have no intention of ever doing so. The only reason it would ever disappear is if the Nintendo ban hammer comes along :(
@@MoldyPond Microsoft Hammer*
Took a walk to my work listening to this. It made the 2 miles not so bad
Beautiful. Banjo kazooie is my favourite. As a kid I enjoyed opening where they played instruments.
Años desde pequeño pasaron para escuchar esta obra de arte

Yes

Simplesmente maravilhoso, a nostalgia que sinto ouvindo essas músicas é inexplicável.
Eu tbm, baixei o emulador só pra zerar essa maravilha novamente
Mano, isso me trás lembranças tão boas, sempre volto aqui quando não estou bem!
Sei que tem um ano, mas existe um ROM totalmente traduzido, e muito bem traduzido por sinal, em PT-BR. Até as rimas da Gruntilda foram traduzidas perfeitamente.

Ehh, I doubt that'll happen. You can get it on Xbox 360, though.
Wish they would, especially with Banjo's inclusion to Smash, but it seems unlikely that Microsoft would be so generous.
21 here, this game was downright beautiful. This and tooie were my childhood
@@Novarcharesk i mean they let cuphead on the switch and even ps4, and psychonauts 2 on ps4, so i think banjo's definitely possible on switch
Hey well now banjos kinda on the switch with the n64 games coming!
I am espeically in love with the freezeezy peak version.
Such an underrated masterpiece, the game, the music
Grant’s use of early sample libraries to create such a rich, rounded and convincing soundtrack is truly astounding.
Most replayed: Grunty's Furnace Fun... of course 😂
this game is a timeless classic, literally the goat
The kind of music that is always playing in my head, “ Errr ahhh ahhh Errrr!”
Should of added Clankerns cavern when you swim to the bottom of the chain, the music gets super creepy.
The best part at the end, I literally got up to dance thinking I was in a minigame
Soy solo yo o estos tonos son súper tiernos y mágicos...si algún día tengo un hijx le pondré esta música para dormir :3
God I miss the 90s. Saturday morning cocoa puffs, Pokémon on Kids WB! and binging this game for hours. Gen Z doesn't know what they missed
I absolutely love and appreciate the flawless transitions in this version! Thank you for making this track mimic the game!
No other video game has ever maintained the hub theme while making each area unique sounding to the world it's for.
How iconic is that intro cackle
Banjo is back on the Nintendo switch!!!!!
So happy I found this one after another version was deleted off youtube
Love this game! I always loved,since I was a kid,that the lair changed song near levels or paintings!

This. This is what i love. 1 main theme remixed to many variations and remains the same melody concept
There was something unsettling about this game which is why I loved it as a kid. Those were my favorite types of things. My favorite movies were The Dark Crystal and Return to Oz
Click Clock Woods variation is the best ❤
2:08 thought I recognised the 'ho' chant in Mumbo's Mouth lair theme - its in Jago's KI Gold theme
siempre pensare que es mágico cuando la melodia en Banjo-Kazooie cambiaba cada que ibamos a Otra dirección que Cambiaba el ambiente o sea. mágico.
I know the Banjo soundtrack and DK64 sound fairly similar, but I always picture the Kongs as the band playing the Banjo soundtrack with their instruments.
Yeah. Dk64 sadly lacks the seamless transitions between versions that the Banjo games have though.
The most Beautiful soundtrack in Nintendo History and Also Ocarina of time
Nothing else compares to this masterpiece of a gem❤❤❤💯💯💯💯
Wonder what it would sound like in Classic Thomas Soundfont.
It is November and this is somehow in my head from nowhere since a week ago. shut up christmas music, i'm jammin to honky donky witch lair music
Who knew 13 minutes of the same melody wouldn't get repetitive?
The Normal and Click Clock Wood variations sounds like something we would hear in a children's fairy-tale
Nice job using the best version of each clankers cavern, bubblegloop swamp, and gobis valley, even though for bubblegloop swamp it's the picture instead of the entrance room.

Just were talking about Grunty's Lair and popped onto YT to check it out. This was AMAZING! Thank so much :)
Click Clock Wood and Mad Monster Mansion are my favorites by far.
Thank you MoldyPond. I listen to this like 10 times a day. Makes me so happy
I’m so proud that I could tell which was which even years later. The only ones that threw me off were alternate and underwater.
*"Gruntilda's Lair Fusion Collab"*
I gotta get this game again. Playing it on Xbox sucks lowkey.
The Stop and Swop secrets with using the Sand Castle in Treasure Trove actually showed you where the secrets are by typing them in.
This is just wrong. The Xbox version is objectively better than the original in just about every way
