Im 6 years old again.
In my room, playing my first SNES game ever.
Good times.
One of the best times to be a 6 year old :)
Me bro, first console, first game
@@popshopgamer5755 ditto here too! Parents made me wait till my 8th birthday and this gem was what greeted me that morning!
The best game ever
I got the snes killer instinct bundle and DK for my 10th bday... what a glorious time 😭
Thank you for your music, my name is Andrew too. DK music brings back memories when my Dad used to watch me play this. He left this world 7 years ago, but your music makes me feel he is right beside me and I know he is.
Others have said that this track reminds them of loved ones who've passed, and now I listen to it very differently. Thanks for sharing these thoughts, means a lot to me
Andy Dean Rest in peace for your dad it’s always good to remember the good times
The sweetest comment I’ve ever seen. I know he would be proud of you.
3 Andrews 😂
Your dad is always with you Andrew ;) he lives within you :)
I can't watch nature documentaries involving the sea without hearing a variation of Aquatic Ambience
Seriously!
That’s actually what brought me here. Helping my son with his science homework on ocean acidification
@@orphenocou4742 wonderful idea
Lol I know right😄
Aquatic Ambience is my favorite theme in Donkey Kong Country. This is the best remix I have ever heard.
This was the first song I ever remixed, and it's also my favorite video game song like.. ever.
@@andrewrecreatormusic3536 try wing ding from donkey Kong tropical freeze.
Same my dude
Yo, very late to this, but if you love this, then I encourage you to check out the 8-Bit Big Bands version of this.
@@Sigurdur5 Not to mention Smooth McGroove's a capella cover.
I simply cannot understand how this does not have more views. Wonderfully peaceful and beautifully re-imagined.
EDIT: I'm glad this comment didn't age well. :)
One day...
you will have more views eventually Andrew. People are starting to get back into the older games. Your music will start popping up more in time. I hope you are still a wonderful musician when that time comes.
because it's not that good
@@skeletor6697 It is. Just not original. And remixes are everywhere.
@@smokescast Take a look at a rendition Sobin Michael did of Road Rash 3's Main theme. Don Veca himself congratulated him. czcams.com/video/ZcHd8jyE3EI/video.html
Simply amazing. I had a Polish Step Dad and every day when he came home form work he would play this game and every time I heard this tune, I just couldn't believe how this tune wasn't professionally produced in another way. Well, now it is. Thank you Andrew; beautiful re-creation... I miss my step-dad (Henry), he was a kind hearted, hard working man and a good friend. I love you Henry...
the is the best remake of this song ever. seriously please put this on spotify bc all the other covers suck...
TASTEFUL. Thank you for not going overboard. That's all I can really say.
You've managed to invoke the nostalgic side, but also capture the purest essence of David Wise's work. My father was always fascinated with video games and how much they evolve, but him being a musician LOVED the music. When my brother and I would play this game and this level, he always walked in and watched. Said he found it peaceful. I can't wait to show him this.
Did he enjoy it as much as the original game soundtrack?
Well said.
Honestly, I could sleep so easily while listening to this. This is so relaxing
But I have downloaded this and the Forest Interlude remixes, 'cause I'm looking for elemental songs. Look at this:
Forest Interlude (the other one): Grass
Aquatic Ambience (this one): Water
it brings old memmories to our youth pure of heart
I listened to this the day my dog passed from this world. I loved him like a brother. I still feel him and this song reminds me of him. Thank you for making this.
This is the loveliest comment I've ever received. I have a special song that reminds me of my departed best friend animal. Look up "always" by Jessica curry.
Andrew Recreator Music :) I will, thank you Andrew
I feel you man. I lost my dog last yr. outside running partner and protector. He was loyal till his dying days. It’s a blessing to have the love and affection from god’s wonderful creatures.
I don't comment often, but this is by far my favorite remix to this amazing song. You deserve all the praise, this is great !!
+Jeremy P thanks for such a nice comment :)
Best track in the game, best version of that track.
It's the best in the game for sure
This song legit made me cry. From someone who for their entire life has strongly refrained from showing any kind of emotional feelings to sad things, this song broke me. For that my good sir, you just earned yourself a fan and a loyal sub. Thanks for making this amazing track.
Michael Reed Gaming there is something mystical and almost shamanistic about it to me
@@Bazonkaz I feel that.
It's a good thing to find something that can open up your grief. For me it's thinking about losing my dog, and when it's hard to access sadness, I have a special song that reminds me of her and opens up my grief. Glad to be part of that journey for you
@@andrewrecreatormusic3536 Thanks man, I really appreciate it.
@@andrewrecreatormusic3536 what is that special song you listen to?
I occupied this masterpiece in a spiritual retreat of the church to give a theme to young people, I love having it playing in the background, greetings from Mexico ❤️
I am blown away by the amount of emotion that was put into an already perfect song to improve on it while keeping it's original feeling whilst giving new ones. Absolutely amazing job Andrew!
Aww thanks man! I am a very emotional person and put a lot of that energy into my music :)
My child memories came back with this amazing song. Its pure nostalgia!!!
Perfect for calming stressful situations, to sleep or just....
*Relax.....and recapitulate about the good side of life*
It is a very Zen song for sure
One of the best things I have ever heard in my life
Me too.
@@vidguy2004 Man, too is little, David is certainly a Wise man
@@aguilarrojasoctavio4402 I see what you did there :D
Wow. How did I not see this sooner. Beautifully done.
it just popup in my recommended today. feelsbadman
Same here. Barely came out on my recommendations.
Haha I can't wait to see all the good vids coming out in 2019 in 2023
Thank you :) glad you found it
My brain is so relaxed that I can see even the future!
What do you see?
You making a 30 min version of this track!
Do you see Dixie Kong in Smash?
Every time I hear this version relaxes me a lot, it's wonderful. This is from 7 years ago and I'm still hearing it today, thank yo to making it
I keep finding myself back to this video during the pandemic, helps with the stress when I get home from work.
Hope you're doing well through all this madness
Andrew Recreator Music Aside from the mandatory overtime, mask and 100 Fahrenheit weather. I’m okay 👌🏻
You've brought a new life to this masterpiece. Glad to hear the pure nostalgia classic from the other side! Good job, thanks for sharing it.
It is so peaceful and so beautiful it feels like it is my lullaby when I was a baby
I’ve stayed silent on this for too long. This recreation... it’s so well made it’s honestly hard not to tear up a little. I’ve watched this well over a year, since right before the K. Rool Reveal, and it still holds up phenomenally.
This was the first I ever made, and I think it will always be the best, because the original is one of the best video game songs ever composed.
Sounds like a Resident Evil Save Room theme. This is masterfully done and crafted. Great Job
So many people have said this.. I need to hear this save room song
@@andrewrecreatormusic3536 try the original resident evil save room theme it was my alarm for a bit might use this song now
@@andrewrecreatormusic3536 RE0's, RE1's, and RE2's are somber and beautiful, you definitely should give them a listen. Same goes for all of them, really, RE3 standing out for, at least to me, giving off a vibe of determination rather than ease.
I never played this game during my childhood but ever since I found the original song it’s had special place in my heart... this track just pulls me back to reality.
Keep pushing forward my friends, God is waiting for us
That’s a cool perspective to hear. Most people attribute the love of this song to nostalgia, but I think it’s beautiful regardless of whether or not you grew up with it
@@andrewrecreatormusic3536fr, I literally only heard it a few months ago for the first time when I played Tropical Freeze, I still agree that it's one of the best sounding tracks ever
I broke the like button as fast as you brought me at tears at the 4th second. Amazing !! you capture the essence of each song you recreate. But precisely this track opened my chest of childhood memories!! :') Thank you... we need more people like you in this world, in these so hard days!!
Wow... just wow.
I wanted to post some smart ass comment full of fancy & refined words, but here I am, just sitting, listening, with tears rolling down my face.
Absolutely touching heart, this music.
Thank you.
Thank you for these recreations! They truly bring back wonderful memories from my childhood.
That’s why I do em!
Superb. I grew up glued to a 4:3 cathode ray tube TV and DKC 1-3. This song always totally transported me away to an idyllic yet haunting aquatic reef and this reimagining just adds to the mood of the piece. Outstanding.
I was always impressed with by how beautiful and deep a video game song could be
Instantly made me tear up. Mid cry atm. Great job. Captures the essence of the song.
This came on autoplay and usually I skip but..... I just.... I just couldn't. This is simply beautiful.
Glad you didn’t!!
I knew roughly what I wanted, but this was so much better than the version I was trying to find.
It ended up being perfect for helping centre myself when I realised I was having a mild panic attack over something I didnt need to fret over.
I just wish it was longer......ive loved this since i was young. 48 now
This is one of the most beautiful things i ever heard in my whole life. Very talented
THANKS ANDREW this was really nice i had a huge nostalgia overload listening to this.
Yes!
I enjoy this, it has a more timeless sound than a lot of the remixes I’ve heard. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you. Timeless is how I feel about the originals. I’m just trying to capture that.
@@andrewrecreatormusic3536 Amen to that...
Your work is amazing, so many shit online dosnt let people reach your talent.
i am amazed you managed to change the feeling of this song so much without changing the melody or the harmony .this has even deeper atmosphere but is even more motionless at times, but the embellishment on the really bright major sounds in the middle kind of keeping this from being way to somber at the same time, very interesting approach, very sensible execution
Thank you, I just went with my gut on this. I wanted to ‘pull out’ the beauty that the original was expressing
The best music from super nintendo will never forget this sweet melody
this rendition is perfect for quiet snowfall outside :)
Oh I wish there was snow here in CA
@@andrewrecreatormusic3536 got around 20cm of snow here in Vancouver, Canada.
Excellent job, sir! Truly amazing! =)
I just discovered this! Better late than never i guess. This is still my favorite from donkey kon country. Magnificent work Andrew!
Wow, just wow..... I don't know what to say. This game means so much to me. I got the mini sness and played DKC. First water level whilst playing it i got those goosebumps. It's the first game i played with my pa. So much memories just came to life again. Thank you sir for doing this. 👍🏻🙏
Aw man that is wonderful to hear. Thank you
No man👍🏻 Thank you! 😁
All the levels are a work of art and so is the music
Makes me wanna swim in the ocean endlessly on a moon light in an island.
This is so beautiful and absolutely stunning!
😁 thank yooou
I just keep coming back to this playlist. Great work with the *DonkeyKongOST*
beautifully made, wish i could forget this song and listen to it fresh every time.
Oh man what a cool concept
Damn, this is an outstandingly beautiful piece of work; re-imagined in such a satisfying way. So healing. Underwater levels have the best music.
fricking amazing! soothing and ethereal
This is such a nice rendition! Thank you!
SUPERB work!
Iori Yagami thank you!!!
So amazing thank you so much for doing this. Love this so much.
Thanks for listening :). I love this piece
Superb! I just have no words to describe this feeling.
What a wonderful comment :)
If I could keep smashing the thumbs up and give this more likes I would. Amazing work with this! Truly amazing keep it up
Wow, this absolutely blew me away...11/10, masterpiece level stuff right here.
Dang thanks!
I love this version so much. I'm filled with so much mystery and wonder.
this is the most serene melody I have ever heard....wow..
this is the most ambient version of aquatic ambience i heard, love it.
Yeah, very floaty :)
Why is it that aquatic themes in video games are always so beautiful, and your remix really captured that lovely echoey like calming nature that the original ost had
Thank you :)
My heavens.. This is beautiful..
:) glad you like it
Really amazing remaster. I honestly could not imagine this music being any better than this. The mood you created by the choice of instrumentation and FXs is perfect. I like how you didn't over do it also, you stayed pretty true to the original but made it 20x better sounding!
Wow thank you! It’s in the same key too :)
This is my unic drug.... I put this in my ears and i can go out of my reality it is a feeling that cant be explained... Just amazing thanks DKC thanks david wise... Reality can be hard or difficult but until you hear this amazing master piece 🙌
I got here from the ol' CZcams algorithm of video game music. There is a very strong case for this being the best song on the DKC soundtrack, this is a really beautiful rendition of the source song and to top it off, it was posted on my birthday 4 years ago as of this posting. Great work, this is really beautiful.
This was such an unexpected type of piece to write for a video game. DKC music pushed the boundaries of what music styles you could use for gameplay
I'm mad at CZcams's suggestions algorithm for not directing me to you sooner. Holy hell. This is epic. So talented!
I’m glad it finally brought you here!
Comment for the CZcams gods, this is criminally underviewed.
Words cannot describe how this makes me feel
holy shit.....this version gives me chills down my spine.....the nostalgia is so real.....the orchestra gives it all away....i like this version just like the OG one.
I like it like the original too!
I love how you've worked on the atmosphere of that beauty =3
❤️❤️❤️
Straight to the heart!! Always will love DK and the OST's
These songs seriously never get old!
I absolutely love this song. I've been listening to it almost every night while falling asleep for about a year now. It's so peaceful and it really gives me good thoughts while drifting off to sleep. Thank you so much for putting this out here.
Even coming back to the original video, I still wonder what wonders that background could hold.
I really appreciate this comment. There is a dreaminess in this song that makes you want to lean back, close your eyes, and slip into your subconscious.
If you want another good dozing off song, look up Sleep by Eric whitacre
@@andrewrecreatormusic3536 Dude, I love Sleep. We're singing it right now in my school's select choir, it has that same feel.
@@MatthewKBF17 woooah thats a trip! I sang that in my choir when I was in high school too. I also got to have dinner with the composer and his family at a music camp I went to. Super super cool guy
Wow. This remix is SO good. Total justice to a childhood fav!!
Thank you!’
you know whats funny I never had a swimming lesson in my life i just imitated what Diddy and Donkey did in Donkey Kong Country~
then Later Imitated what Mario did in Mario 64
This is the funniest thing I ever heard dude. Im going to tell my friends about you!!!
For me, I had imitated Link in Zelda 64, and some of Mario from Mario 64, too. Turns out Mario's wiggle swim isn't very effective. lmao.
True story- I once broke my nose trying to swim like a dolphin in a pool
Did you press A while underwater to switch places with the monkey following you?
@@clintonrushing7872 lmao
This is amazing!
Thanks!!
Thank you!!
Thank you!
You really feel like you're swimming underwater with a shoal of colorful and cute fishes.😺
andre henrique I was thinking the same thing!!
I was led here by accident, love the music😍
Very good job man!🤗
Thanks !
This is really the best Remix of the DKC 1 underwater-level-music i have ever heard!
I also love the strong focus on the relaxing side of the original!
Play it again at 1.5x 😃
I love this music so nuch.
this song always stood out to me from the rest of the soundtrack...it just had a feel the other songs did not. Great remake!
It's like he wrote it separately, loved it to death, and decided he had to put it in one of his games
So faithful to the original yet really stands out from it as well - love the harp!
Glad that you found it :)
Beautiful remix. Absolutely amazing.
So beautiful!
My god. What an amazing remix.
Well done, you are a genius
Wow thank you :)
I love this! Thanks for sharing such good music! Keep it up! :)
I’m working on it :)
I love this so much❤️
Thank you for blessing our ears
Is it ok if I can use this for a drawing video for my art channel? All credits go to you :3
Yeah of course! And thanks :)
All I want to do is dive deep underwater to this song playing and explore life to its fullest, such a pretty arrangment
Play loudly and sink into your bathtub 🛀
You're a very talented musician, and I really enjoy your remixes. This, and the Forest Temple ones are my fave.
Thank you very much :)
Not much to say other than this is beautiful in every sense of the word.
One of the few channes im suscript! Thanks, love it!
OMG, exquisite, wonderful, great remix!
This is so beautiful! You deserve way more views!
Thank you so much!
@@andrewrecreatormusic3536 You have only 4 DKC reimaginings?
This is definitely the best remix I've ever heard.
Wow, thank you for the compliment :)
@@andrewrecreatormusic3536 its pure of hart
Inspiration is key. Especially since its an orchestra piece. I know you probably won't see this, but you inspired me to make my own remixes and covers. Thank you, from bottom of my country filled heart. ❤
I read all my comments even if I don't respond to them all th we days. By country do you mean country music?
@@andrewrecreatormusic3536i live in the country, meaning i dont get to listen to music like this often. Thanks for reading though!
Phenomenal - incredibly well done!
Thanks!
I love this version!
wow this musical background calms my heart
:)
This one is my favorite. In love.
This one has been blowing up the past few months, I love the response it’s getting :)
So peaceful and relaxing thank you
:)
