M_is_D Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Kondo's work for the Mario games sounds A LOT like american ragtime music like Joplin's? I mean, whenever I hear The Entertainer I can only imagine Mario stomping goombas :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Yeah I have noticed that much of Kondo's work sounds very ragtime-ish. His style really has changed though. I mean, look at his score for twilight princess. Close your eyes and you'd swear it was williams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He completely changes depending on what he's scoring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alatus Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I wonder if they have arranged his music for Mario for any one instrument. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hands Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Yep, piano. I have lots of sheets for Mario, including the Air Platform Theme which is manifestly Joplin-esque. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Anders Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 I wonder if they have arranged his music for Mario for any one instrument. http://www.angelfishy.net/Mario.mus Is all of it in there? I think so. It's a transcription of that Mario medley by the blindfolded pianist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
