This is probably one of the most challenging and technical Super Mario songs to play. I hope you guys enjoyed what I did with it! I really tried to set the mood before the drop so hope you stuck around for that. Thanks for watching! Tabs for this are available to my Silver Level supporters on Patreon! Thank you guys so much for your support!
finally! you did that cover I had been waiting for so long. it's one of the hardest gameside songs to play and one of the most popular to me. Congratulations for this excellent cover! I lift my hat
I'm not sure how I missed this video, but I'm almost glad I did, 'cause when you busted this out at the concert I wasn't expecting it at all and it kinda blew my fucking mind!
@@TehBloodyYank556 It's more of a complete remake than a rearrangement, as a piece I prefer the original more (nostalgia, and I saw this first, it always affects) so I like Jules' better. But yeah, that one's dope too.
I had it playing in the background, while I was cleaning, was digging it. Heard this exact part and stopped everything I was doing and went "Duuuudee! Sick!' Such a good cover.
I was a serious Mario fanatic. I was a child searching for this theme on RUclips lol and here I am again.. 24, with a guitar obsession.. browsing through RUclips to find this song and wondering if anyone covered it this way specifically and man.. y’all have seriously made me the happiest woman on earth. The musicgasm is insane... 😩 especially at 0:58 omg. I have chills
cliche comments aside though, this cover/rendition is literally everything i was hoping for when i searched for exactly this, and so much more. great job dude
Rarely have I ever seen a better cover of anything. What superb perfection - from that landing at 0:59 to the beautiful soft ending at 3:05, every moment of this cover is to be savoured. Well done mate! :D
I always love the Bowser Castle themes of both Super Mario Bros 3 and Super Mario World. You can really tell you were in one scary place. But oh boy, the Super Mario 64 Bowser stages were absolutely scary with the music that theme is hard to beat.
I searched for orchestral covers, piano covers, midis, everything... and no one, not one single video did justice to this song. Until i found this incredible rendition. Perfectly arranged, with a unique style without beign "too different" from the original. Man this is such a great example of what a cover should be. Instantly subscribed.
Yours is the best version of this cover hands down. You kept the low notes going up and down with the arpeggio is the most accurate cover I've ever heard
Hey Jules! I’m from Quebec and actually going troughs hard times unfortunately! But when I feel sad, I’m listening to this song! It’s getting me out of my torments in a blink of an eye! Keep doing what you’re doing! Stay the same! Thanks!!
@@thygod It wasn't "bad" by any means, it's just that it was basically the game music note-for-note on a guitar. I was waiting for him to put his own "spin" on it. Then he did, and all was right in the world.
@@andyb1653 That's actually how you play those arpeggios correctly, note-for-note, lol. Koji Kondo wrote a beast of a song -- Jules just added heavy real guitars/bass/drums/etc to it instead of it being in SNES midi form like the original. He didn't totally re-write that part or anything though, just to be clear ;)
A la madre!!!! This cover is fucking sick!!! This is more de lo que yo siempre pensé que sonaría en versión metal. So sick man! Congrats for you outstanding work, I love it!
Jules I have been watching your content since your first year, back when Casper was at his peak. I enjoyed your medleys back then, but seeing how much you've grown over time has been an absolute pleasure. I have a lot of favourites of yours (particularly Cerulean City), but this is the best work I've ever seen by far. I play your music expecting quality and was still amazed. The number of subscribers you have in contrast to the number of years I've seen you put into this is an absolute crime. Please keep improving and putting out content. It really brightens up my week, as well as many others I'm sure.
This is epic! Nice to see a musician on RUclips who not only is very technically proficient but also knows how to structure a song and build and release tension and knows when less is more. Beautiful arrangement--and some beastly shredding :)
For me it was Bowser Jr.'s Tower theme from NSMB DS, although the music spooked me more cuz of it's associated with a level I considered difficult (I was only 5 back then)
Dude, this is simply phenomenal! If I may ask, can you do a full length version for the super mario world athletic theme like you sampled in your history of video games video? You put so much energy and force into that theme, just like you do with all your music.
God I love what you did what that lead melody, I've had goosebumps for a solid two minutes. I'm also in love with how you chose to implement the arpeggio with tapping. Incredible work!
I always ask permission before I use music, as a professional wrestler and music creator, I would be honored to be able to use this as my entrance music with your consent. If so please, let’s talk! I’m very serious
I'm just gonna say it. This is, imo, your best work. You did an outstanding job on this one, man. Been rooting for you ever since you did Megaman X and Street Fighter 2 justice, and it's good to see you continually getting better.
I was looking for a good cover of this song. Who else would meet my buddy expectations other than familyjules?! HOW HAVE I NOT HEARD THIS UNTIL NOW?! This was truly magnificent!!!
I think my favorite touch out of all of this is the sliding. It just added SO much punch to the track. Obviously every single track recorded is incredible, but I felt like that particular element was very FJ in style. I'm still completely baffled how the arpeggios are made to look so easy. That's an insane amount of precision.
Also, despite how metal every aspect of this is, I really enjoyed seeing all the smiles throughout this. Clearly a track FJ loves, and I'm right there with you on that!
Dude with this past generation of Metal Anime, Gaming Music, and what have you, I have been able to both relive my past but enjoy something completely new. When I was a kid the best you got for a video game cover was either a sequel to the game or one of your friends knew a chord or two on the guitar. XD I know this is old but keep up the good work man, everything I heard from you so far is golden ^^
Bruh... That was freaking phenomenal. I've been listening to a bunch of metal covers of f-zero and megaman, but I never thought a mario track could go metal. Jaw droppingly good. I especially like the contrast with the last ending part. Nice work
This is probably one of the most challenging and technical Super Mario songs to play. I hope you guys enjoyed what I did with it! I really tried to set the mood before the drop so hope you stuck around for that. Thanks for watching!
Tabs for this are available to my Silver Level supporters on Patreon! Thank you guys so much for your support!
Ya nailed it, from the tapping to the slide. A++
Digging that Multiscale so much \m/ killer job with those tapping runs too man
Absolutely enjoyed it. I love pretty much all your covers, but Jesus that tapping was fucking insane.
GG, Dude.
Dude you surpassed all hopes i had for this, and exceeded other covers i have ever heard. Much love man!
finally! you did that cover I had been waiting for so long. it's one of the hardest gameside songs to play and one of the most popular to me. Congratulations for this excellent cover! I lift my hat
I'm not sure how I missed this video, but I'm almost glad I did, 'cause when you busted this out at the concert I wasn't expecting it at all and it kinda blew my fucking mind!
what concert? do we have a link?
what fucking concert
ANSWER! WHAT CONCERT!
so I heard there was a concert.....
Where
yoo I know EXACTLY how tricky that tapping pattern is
good stuff m8
RichaadEB ayy love your channel my dude. Gave me a ton of inspiration for my riffs on bass.
RichaadEB Heyyy I know you lol
I start writting this my self as a shit guitarist, then I got to that part and I was like, "fuck I need to learn how to actually be good at guitar."
@@michaelberresford4291 big mood
I used to play that arpeggio on piano and it drove me fucking nuts
This is how the music sounded back in the ears of 8 year old me lol :D awesome job
Its so good!!! Awesome stuff man!
Ooooo si
Very epic
Yo jerodddd
Nice to see you here!
My favorite fucking video game song. The most metal thing Nintendo has ever written. I still can't believe that was actually possible on guitar.
I think the most metal thing they did was either this or 'Big Bad Baby Bowser', the final boss theme from Yoshi's Island
Hi paulie !
@@kakashisensei8070 🤣 I got this from the Bensonhurst spelling bee video
You forgot brawl version of gourmet race xD
Showdown at the Tower from DK 94 too.
I want to thank Shigeru Miyamoto, Koji Kondo and Eddie van Halen for making this possible.
And Abe Lincoln
You forgot to thank Jules!
@Kyle Griffin what about the first homo sapiens?
What about God?
And Takashi Tezuka, the director of SMW.
The darker Mario songs are made to be metal. Let’s face facts here.
i think this song originally was composed by Van Halen for the game but i might be wrong
@@funneghost045 That's definitely not true.
@@firstmategiddy dammit game grumps
I totally think of bowser when I hear this.
Can't tap. I've got stupid hands. I would, however, play the chord progression!
Man! I can't believe a cover actually did the arpeggios correctly. That last smooth bit made me quite emotional too!
Check RichaadEb's version. Its dope as hell
check out some of the acuoustic portions of "opeth" if you like that. very similar feels
@@TehBloodyYank556 It's more of a complete remake than a rearrangement, as a piece I prefer the original more (nostalgia, and I saw this first, it always affects) so I like Jules' better. But yeah, that one's dope too.
Hell yeah
2:59 When you realize that the princess is actually in another castle
this is unironically fucking hilarious
@@MoonLmao ik im 8 months late but its "hilarious"
@@suoppr2710 i couldnt spell crap back then
things are better for me now
Yoshi disliked this for never being invited to the castle stages. Amazing cover, dude! Always a treat to hear some kick-ass Super Mario World jams!
HA!!!! 😁
I'd love to hear the og castle theme with the Yoshi bongos added lmao
@@WaffleClap Literally just play Mario Maker
Ypshi isn't playable in the SMB1 theme
epicRedHot yea just use his goomba boot form
This cover really is timeless. 3 years later and it still rocks my face off 🎉
0:56 ooh, those descending trills!
Good cover of a classic tune!
I had it playing in the background, while I was cleaning, was digging it.
Heard this exact part and stopped everything I was doing and went "Duuuudee! Sick!'
Such a good cover.
I can only imagine that this is what Nintendo wanted the soundtrack to actually be but they were limited by the tech of the time.
Sick track! 🤘🏽😎
I mean they used samples back then. Also i don’t think some 90s moms would approve of this genre. Lol
It’s like the HD version.
they do use metal for bowser music nowadays
You're definitely the best on this platform when it comes to make metal covers and give the songs even more life and emotion than they originally had.
Si
Gametal is a force to be reckoned with as well
Ooo
Ooooop
Bonjuer, I enjoy watching your Glitchtale series, it is well made
I was a serious Mario fanatic.

Suddenly bowser is a jrpg final boss with this arrangement lmao. Epic.
Wow nice comment, damn straight! Even though he's already a jrpg boss I know that you meant bowser in super mario world :)
I love how bad ass you made it yet stayed so faithful to the original. Tbf the original was already pretty bad ass.
The original is legendary hence why this happened, the original gave us goosebumps for a reason!
Oh god yes Jules, great way to celebrate Mario Maker 2's release
Btw I beat your record on Jerod's level :)
Thesleepless Mosquito ghbhbbhbbjbhjb
LOVE you SOEG
cliche comments aside though, this cover/rendition is literally everything i was hoping for when i searched for exactly this, and so much more. great job dude
Goddamnit Jules. You never cease to amaze me. This is perfectly done.
Japanese sound/music engineers from the 80s to 90s for video games should be as famous as Mozart, Bach, Wagner ect....
Relax, big guy
Yeah I agree shits intense
Honestly yeah I get it
@@SolarMothOfficial you’ve never listened to any classical music. You don’t “get” shit
@EnjoySackLunch And you are a pretentious douchebag who wouldn't recognize brilliant classical music like THIS if it bit them in the ass
0:59 is where it changed the whole tune...
...perfection
I cannot like this comment... it must remain perfectly balanced...
This is the MOST beautiful cover I’ve heard 🥺💖✨
Try to listen to RICHADEB version of this song
Its not beautiful, its made to be badass 🔥
Rarely have I ever seen a better cover of anything. What superb perfection - from that landing at 0:59 to the beautiful soft ending at 3:05, every moment of this cover is to be savoured. Well done mate! :D
AGREED.
And I feel like he almost topped it with This is Halloween. What a feat!
It's amazing how melancholic yet still powerful most covers of this song end up being. +1
People who disliked this got stuck in castle #1.
Great song, dude!
Lol, Sonic fanboys
I always love the Bowser Castle themes of both Super Mario Bros 3 and Super Mario World.
You can really tell you were in one scary place.
But oh boy, the Super Mario 64 Bowser stages were absolutely scary with the music that theme is hard to beat.

This might be my favorite cover you've ever put out, my dood. That arpeggio is C L E A N. 7 string sounding beastly too \m/

I thought the funky shuffle thing he had going on was really neat, personally.
@@thygod It wasn't "bad" by any means, it's just that it was basically the game music note-for-note on a guitar. I was waiting for him to put his own "spin" on it. Then he did, and all was right in the world.
It's called buildup and progression lol.
That part made me turn my head and say, "Holy shit."

oooof, when those triplet double kicks come in !!
This is too good to be true. Honestly, this deserves over a million views. The ending is really beautiful too.

So sick man! Congrats for you outstanding work, I love it!
2:17 When you become the guitar
My jaw was at the floor with that drop. Absolutely stunning technique.
I felt those trills in my spine. Great cover dude 👍
Dude that was insane! My favorite Koji Kondo song and you did it so much justice! Those tapping arpeggios are absolute fire! 💯 💯
Finally a great rocked out version of this song.
Don't forget RichaadEB's version! Now there are TWO amazing Rocked out versions!
You young whippersnappers seem to have forgotten Artificial Fears rendition from 2011.

Hands down the most impressive rendition of a Mario song since the solo acoustic version of SMB2 theme song
How can you dislike this seriously?... Awesome cover as always 🔥
That ended SCREAMED opeth. such a great cover!!!!
This is one of my favorite Mario Songs in general, and its always been a straight banger. Glad to see it done justice.
the dedication to video game music is at a epic level here
This is epic! Nice to see a musician on RUclips who not only is very technically proficient but also knows how to structure a song and build and release tension and knows when less is more. Beautiful arrangement--and some beastly shredding :)
Creci con ese video juego en mi infancia...eres un genio.
OMG!! This is amazing 🤙 I hope one day your music could be in smash ultimate. 😍
Well it's in an official Zelda game, so that's a great first step.
Someone probably has a mod pack for that.
Epic idea!
what game?

For me it was Bowser Jr.'s Tower theme from NSMB DS, although the music spooked me more cuz of it's associated with a level I considered difficult (I was only 5 back then)
I'm still amazed at how you took what I personally think is a lackluster Mario song, and turned it into literally my favorite song of yours.
It is great to see how far along you've come... Not just guitar but mixing and production. This was effing amazing and keep it up!
One of the greatest metal covers ever
Went from textbook and solid to unique and amazing. You keep getting better and better, man. Keep it up!
just discovering this. freaking amazing
YES!!! I've been waiting for this ever since your super mario world title theme cover! And it's even more awesome than I could have imagined!
I f*king love this man.!!!
Extremely tight and accurate. nice cover all in all! love it!
Holy shit bro!, good shit! That intro was phenomenal!
Covers don’t get much better than this. And people who cover video game songs can’t get better than this. Keep up every last bit of this excellence.
He's in my top 3 RUclips guitarists. In no particular order:
-FamilyJules
-Toxic Eternity
-RichaadEB
I love this track so much, I have it on my playlist of almost 100 songs on YT
Dude, this is simply phenomenal! If I may ask, can you do a full length version for the super mario world athletic theme like you sampled in your history of video games video? You put so much energy and force into that theme, just like you do with all your music.
