This tune is Mario-inspired. I thought of a 3D platform game more than a 2D platform game when I wrote this, because 3D platform games' music is less "monotonous" and more "all out" than 2D platform games (A good comparison is Super Mario 3D Land's music to New Super Mario Bros. music).

I ALWAYS appreciate constructive criticism (even if it's picky). My biggest concern is the melody of the second part (which starts from F Major), because I'm not even sure if that part's melody is singing in a "happy, joyful way". It sounds a bit too over the top for a tune like this, but I tried to find a melody that contrasts the first melody, and I didn't want to make it sound too similar to it either.

It's-a me! Someone that will listen-a and review your piece-a! (sounds like pizza)

9 out of 10 from me.

The only problem I have is that "wak wak wak" in the background.

I guess it makes sense in the mario games context,

for they do things like that a lot,

but for me it was a bit annoying,

and could get more annoying hearing it as a loop.

I'd cut out some of it.

Other than that... great job-a!

Definitely a mario- jumping around happily smashing stuff.

This is great. I love the groove, and the bass line is really funky. I definitely agree with the other comments that the wak wak is too overboard.

But I really do like the variety in the rhythm section, which makes it very reminiscent of nintendo-y music. You did a fine job.

Thanks. Could you please define the "variety" of the rhythm section you're talking about in this topic?

 

Oh. I meant the syncopation gave the percussion more variety than if it were just a straight beat. I should have said ''syncopation.'' I guess ''variety'' was the wrong word to describe what I was thinking. haha.

OMG IT SOUNDS LIKE MARIO JESUS, but I looooove how happy and carefree it sounds!!! but yeah the wak wak its too much but  I would not remove all of it.. i would just put it there on the rhythm just a liiiitle bit .. just like 4 wak waks between 2-4 bars.. use it on the crucial parts.. just to give it a nice ambient kinda silly tone
