David Wise’s work on the Donkey Kong Country<\/strong> series soundtracks is arguably some of the most iconic of the SNES era. The original<\/a> set the tone, from the ‘Main Theme’ to ‘Aquatic Ambience’ to ‘Gan-Plank Galleon’. And because of Wise’s excellent work, we’ve all heard of ‘Stickerbush Symphony’ from Donkey Kong Country 2<\/a> and the drums from Dixie Kong’s Double Trouble!<\/a>‘s ‘Rockface Rumble’ are etched into our minds.<\/p>\n

Now, there’s a brand new way you can celebrate the music of this brilliant series. The Holophonics, a ska punk band from Denton and Dallas, Texas, has released a new album as part of its MaSKArades series. Titled Donkey SKAng Country<\/strong>, the band has laid down the funk and rhythm to rearrange 21 iconic tracks from the three Super Nintendo titles.<\/p>\n

Well, that’s the soundtrack to our summer sorted, then!<\/p>\n
