       @gardiner_bryant That was a great write-up!I never really cared for donkey Kong country. I've played a little bit of it but it never really clicked with me, so I only know this song through hearing it on YouTube.It's amazing though. It's so ethereal and evokes such a sense of loneliness.  I feel that the Ecco the Dolphin games also have some very ethereal and lonely music, but the SNES sound chip really shines with the DKC track and makes it something truly special.

       @gardiner_bryant I listen to this track on the Nintendo Music app all the time while working. As a kid it blew my mind and opened me up to more progressive electronic music that I still enjoy today. Water levels always have the best music to distract from the suffering they bring.
