I will never not find it funny that one of the most complex, varied, and atmospheric video game soundtracks of all time comes not from an epic RPG or plot-heavy adventure, but a platformer about a pair of monkeys fighting alligator pirates. A great rearrangement of a legendary soundtrack.
I know right, if you listened to this without knowing any of the context, you would just assume it's from some epic pirate movie - not a decades old game about monkeys jumping on crocodiles.
Thank you all soooo much for the support on this album, i really put a lot of time and effort into it. We're right now at 90.000 views and that's just insane! I'd like to do some more video game tracks on my channel. What would you like to hear?
Thank you all for the support! Can't believe we hit almost 350.000 views! The next installment of this series is coming soon! It's a little different this time tho. Hope you're gonna enjoy it!
Esos eran melodias finas, bien orquestada y trabajado con excelencia. Que más se puede pedir, era la emoción del juego y te entrabas en el personaje del momento, pero te ayudo a desarrollar para lo que venía más adelante, luchar ante las adversidades de tu vida.
Are you kidding me with this? This is phenomenal. The original tracks were already great, but these orchestral compositions manage to have their own unique identity while preserving the soul of the originals perfectly. Well done.
This is actually so good it hurts. I've loved this game and its soundtrack since the day it came out. What you've done here means more to me than you will ever realize. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart for this.
As an initial comment, it's risky to modify something that important to a fanbase such as a beloved videogame ost but the greatest things in this world come from brave people who take the risk of taking something we thought was perfect and making it even better. Oh my heavens! From the bottom of my heart I thank you for this tribute to an entire generation who played this masterpiece. This is beyond words, it's impossible to hold a tear, nothing moves a heart than a great childhood memory turned into something this amazing.
Forest Interlude and Stickerbrush Symphony are two of the songs that most marked my life, I'm here moved by their version, in tears as I write this comment. Thank you for that!
Lockjaw's Saga was one of my favorite tracks from the original game. On first play, this rendition started off a little slow and different for me, and I wasn't sure how to feel. ... but then THOSE DRUMS hit for the first time.... Every hair on my body stood on-end. A flood of nostalgia and excitement pulsed through my very soul. Such a faithful rendition of the original with added flair in all the right places. This was AMAZING, perfectly done!!
Mr. Zimmermann. You made it. You can't imagine what this game means to me. It's not just my childhood, it's my everything. You took the best part of the game, the soundtrack, created by the one and only, the legend, David Wise, and you elevated it to another realm. Listening to this was something I needed so much right now. Amazing job. Simply outstanding. The tears in my eyes are tears of pure joy. Thank you so much.
As a 5 year old in 1995 when this game released, I remember my brothers and I got this game for Christmas that year and we immediately started playing it. DKC2 was, is, and always will be my favorite game in the DK series. The different world themes, and especially the soundtrack are what make this game so special to me. Thank you for bringing this bit of nostalgia into my day.
This was such a memorable soundtrack for me growing up and hearing it redone so well is truly epic. I’m blown away by the musical talent that was put into this.
Listening to the first 10 minutes, I was so happy thinking that some symphony out there actually played all of this at some concert, wishing that I could have attended....and then I read the description...and it's SOME PERSON?!?! Fucking FANTASTIC!
I've just got to take a momment to stop and say how fantastic this whole thing is. My god, I can't even really describe how well done this entire symphony is, you absolutely nailed it.
This is great! Fantastic! Really breathes new and vibrant life into an old childhood classic. Thanks for taking the time to compose this, and to share it with all of us retro souls.
I grew up playing this gem of a game and it's still one of my all-time favorites. You absolutely knocked this thing out of the park and to the moon. It was a complete privilege listening to it.
Amazing effort, man. Totally worth the year and a half you spent on it! Like millions of other gamers, I played this game to death in the 90's, love David Wise's soundtrack, so therefore really appreciate this amazing DAW reconstruction/composition. I noticed you added some extra original parts of your own in there too. Sneaky!
Why is this getting recommanded to me now? I haven't watch anything DKC2 related in month, the video is not recent, it doesn't have an incredible ammount of views...weird. Oh well, even I don't understand it, I'm glad it happened.
I listen to the DK soundtracks sometimes when I study. I cannot believe this hadn't been recommended to me! I am a huge fan of these games & their music - thank you for doing this, I love this so much!
I can imagine a animation movie with this soundtrack. Your capture all the essence of the original Soundtrack and I even couldn't handle my tears on Forest Interlude part, such a great work!
Snakey Chantey is my favourite track because of two reasons: It captures the essence of the first DKC game soundtrack so well and second it makes me feel nostalgic! But the entire video in it's entire is amazing! This game and it's soundtrack will always have a place in my heart. Thank you for all your effort!
@@BenZimmermannMusic What is your next project? Is the first DKC game soundtrack up next for a symphony remaster? I bet you can make it sound just as epic as this one!
I can't even put into words how awesome this is! Thank you for allowing me to relive my childhood. You've truly outdone yourself with this masterpiece!
Also, the middle to end of Forest Interlude is on point, brings goosebumps and tears every time I hear it! You made an already amazing album even more amazing!
Thank you, Ben, sincerely, for this work. Brings me back almost 30 years to the SNES game of my life. Listening to it every day currently, absolutely fantastic. Thank you.
I only just found this but this is glorious. As one of the best, if not the best 2D platformer and one of the pinnacles of original Rare ingenuity, this truly showcases what David Wise did on the 16 bit console.
This is amazing! DKC 2 and its OST are some of my favourites of all time, and your rendition of it is incredible. It is a pleasure to listen to it. Thank you!
This gave me chills several times throughout. I love a lot of the choices you made, like underplaying certain parts to focus on the backing instruments, or the various flairs and chimes you just use as the song picks up! I’m absolutely buying this album!
this is ABSULUTELY MESMERIZING! I cried, I laughed, I felt so many things remembering the incredible moments that I had with this game as a child. thank you so much, Ben ❤❤
I gotta tell you man, this gave me goosebumps and some tears came out my eyes, Snakey Chantey is my favorite song in a video game and you made it even more memorable! Congratulations!
This soundtrack brings back so many memories from my teen years. I can't thank you enough. You've taken a flawless score and, somehow, elevated it!!! Congratulations...and thank you once again.
This was truly fantastic, I take my hat off yo you sir. In all seriousness from the very first rendition of the opening logo drop you took this 36 year old man straight back to getting this game for Christmas when I was 10 years old. Well done I'm very glad that your video was recommended to me in the side bar of a DK country retrospective video. I'll be loo,ing forward to seeing whatever you do next.
I was expecting a midi rip with half assed effort as an album like some of the other video game OST "albums" I've seen on RUclips... Boy was I in for a shock. Great work. This is really, really good. It is clear you put love and time into crafting these into Symphony versions. 11/10, 4 thumbs up. Subscribing.
Is that a clarinet I hear on Snakey Chantey? My man! This is one of the cooler arrangements I have heard of a great soundtrack on what I believe to be one of the best SNES games ever made. Thanks for this!
DKC2 is the greatest game of all time! one of my faves! so much nostalgia growing up with it... best platformer ini my opinion. Love all the music and love this album!
Cara, qq é isso, essas músicas entram na alma. Faz com que a gente se sinta com 10 ou 11 anos de idade, nostalgia bate muito forte, dá vontade dar um abraço apertado nesse gênio chamado David Wise, e só agradecer por ter marcado a infância de uma maneira q nunca irá se apagar. Simplesmente sem palavras. Impossível não chorar ouvindo essas músicas
This is beyond epic. I had always been curious to what this soundtrack would sound like with a symphony arrangement. It’s absolutely brilliant and a dream come true. Thank you for putting this together.
The work you did is incredible, you captured the complexity and beauty of every track in the game, replicating even the smallest detail... You have my respect and support for an' outstanding effort
This is astonishingly good and ive heard this soundtrack for almost 30 years now, and you have done it amazing justice! I cant wait to see the rest of your impressive work!!
Flight of the Zinger has always been one of my favorites and you, sir, did it justice. That was incredible. I liked your album on Spotify and will be listening to it a lot!
Every single track here is wonderfully done, I'm in complete love with the whole video. I adore your take in songs like Mining Melancholy and Lockjaws's Saga. Absolutely beautiful work.
listened to the full album. This is a wonderful orchestral arrangement! And the build ups and transition between each track really adds to the atmosphere of the DKC2 soundtrack! I love it!
I'm so lucky to discover this amazing masterpiece, this should have been youtube purpose of existence in the first place, videos of hard working people sharing their hearts.
Wow! You did an incredible job. I always knew this music was amazing and beautiful and you really helped bring that out with this arrangement. Glad it isn't just me who still loves this game and its music after all these years!
What you have done here, sir, is take a series I hardly knew before 2018 and now love, and you've masterfully reorchestrated every track from DKC2. DKC is truly an amazing series, keep up the magnificent work. Glad RUclips recommended me this.
My new The Legend of Zelda symphony album is out now! I hope you will enjoy this new installment! Enjoy!

don't lose Dixie
Well to be fair this is one if not the best platformers of it's era. It deserved this soundtrack and no less.
David Wise is one of the best, if not the best, VG music composer of all time, with Chris "Turrican" Huelsbeck, no more, no less😉
Thank you all soooo much for the support on this album, i really put a lot of time and effort into it. We're right now at 90.000 views and that's just insane! I'd like to do some more video game tracks on my channel. What would you like to hear?

I want to mention how much I love the dramatic buildup in Lockjaw's Saga, it just feels fantastic to finally have those drums hit. Utterly moving.
Thank you! A friend of mine helped me to get these drums sound just right :)
THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!! Finally a epic version of this track.
Lockjaw's Saga was one of my favorite tracks from the original game. On first play, this rendition started off a little slow and different for me, and I wasn't sure how to feel.
... but then THOSE DRUMS hit for the first time....
Every hair on my body stood on-end. A flood of nostalgia and excitement pulsed through my very soul. Such a faithful rendition of the original with added flair in all the right places. This was AMAZING, perfectly done!!
Lock jaw is irrelevant, if the dev want you to continue, do so.
Beautiful, when those drums came in on Lockjaw's Saga I got goosebumps lmao soo good. Thank you so much
I've listened to countless number of remastered / remakes / covers / remix... And let me tell you, this is one of the best work I ever came across.
The electric guitar in Croc Cacophony is stellar. It just brings the "villain" motif up to 11.
Mr. Zimmermann. You made it. You can't imagine what this game means to me. It's not just my childhood, it's my everything.
