I am proud to say that I feel this was done in large part to a comedic straight man/funny man flood between Lord Gerald and myself.

This song rules for that reason and the fact that that's actually a Pepsi bottle being used in the tune (if I remember correctly! :lol:)

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA! This song is too happy! Yeah, it should definitely make you smile. The only bad thing is, it's too short. It probably could have gone another verse with more development, but oh well. Still a fun song.

http://starterupsteve.servepics.com:60000/images/dancingspot.gif I remember playing this game way back when I was around eight years old or so, this song brings back memories, oldschool awesomeness! http://starterupsteve.servepics.com:60000/images/dancingspot.gif

I played the hell out of this game, and I still own it. (Perhaps I'll bring it back up with me next time I'm home?)

It reminds me of the Magicant theme from Earthbound. Definately a cool mix. :nicework:

This tune would make Tommy Tallarico proud.
Plus its a great classic title that anyone must have played during the SNES days.Sweet old-school style.

Rented this game on Genesis. It owned. Good mix, though it seems a bit BEER-ish. :wink:

I could never beat that evil demon of a game, but this goofy little mix still brings back memories. Tons of charm is all it takes to make a simple song a great listen. I like. :mrgreen:

Goofy is definitely the word to describe this remix. When I first listened to it, however, I was kind of disappointed in it, but once it hit the vocals, then I knew this remix is really high quality. :lol: Very catchy, feel-good stuff here. You should check it out if you need some cheering up. And for some reason, I just cannot stop listening to this. When a song does that to you, you know it's worth checking out. :D

The Pepsi bottle makes some sense because Pepsi owns 7up outside of the US and some Pepsi bottlers make 7up.

Got that at http://www.salutetosoda.com

I don't remember ever playing this game, so I never heard this theme until now. The music feels like it could fit in Super Mario Sunshine easily, with that summertime feel. The whistling near the end is real neat. Overall, this is a really cool song, and deserves a picture of a bald guy's thumbs up.

Mazedude,

Very nice. I love the harmonies in this. I haven't heard the original but the quality shines through here. Perhaps the most impressive thing is the way you restrained yourself between 0.52/0.54.

It’s nice to see something in complete contrast to your last remix. I’m not sure Sagat would approve of this, and if he did, he’d probably listen too it with headphones so no one would know. :wink:

Excellent work.

k... I remember this game. It so damn hard and yet fun.

I was about to do an abstract remix of the ravetune off of Coolspot. It turned out SMB3 airship tune is better for that stuff.... anyhoo... fun mix anyways.

Very short, but since level tracks don't need to be 10 minutes long, very good work. Nice and easy, not too happy but it'll get your spirits up.

An amazingly fun little song, thanks to the awesome arranging.

Mazedude rocks (I'm a big fan of the rockin Doom 2 remixes).

Almost makes me want to sing Led Zeppelins' "D'yer Mak'r".

Kinda short, kinda simple, and whatever instrument was used for the melody is rather annoying-- i don't know if it's the EQ or my speakers or what :P "Happy" alone isn't enough to pull this one through IMO. C'mon, Mazey, you can do better!

Briliant piece...
i would have preferred the vocals to have been louder, perhaps...they get drowned out by the steel drums and...is that a sample of someone blowing a bottle top?

The fadeout seemed to come a little quick and if I had done the track I would have tried to get a proper ending in...but that said, the current isnt bad.

I find that Mazedude consistently adds much needed flavor and variety to his tracks. And this one is no exception.

^ I can't get over that. :lol:

Great, great song to listen to when you need a quick pick-me-up. Catchy voicing lends a lot of character to the whole thing. I remember renting the game a few times, trying to spell UNCOLA in the bonus stages.....good times.....

They coulda made a sequel with the release of dnL, but oh well.

As I said, great work, love to hear more. *runs off to ebay to look for used Cool Spot game*

very good, and yes...very happy. I also own this game, but I'm too lazy to hook up my snes and play it old school-like. I wish there were more remixes of this game, because it had an outstanding soundtrack (in my opinion) I thought that it was gonna be a lame game when I first rented it (around 6 years old maybe?) and then it was so good that I went to the used game place and bought it. I still have it in my Super nintendo drawer....it's been in there for about 6-7 years! If I were home I'd go look at it right now, but oh well. That probably won't happen for another 2 years.

Well, i'm a little early for the 7-18-09 review, but it'll be ok.

Dang, it's short!
It's cute though, with the singing and whistling and the charming happiness. I'm not sure whether or not this could be developed further without having it lose a little of the carefree attitude, so the fade is fine by me in this case. Sometimes, you just gotta fade, you know?

Fun stuff, I love how Mazedude always challenges himself to try new things, it's pretty inspiring to me. :-)

This is happy song, I can't deny it, it makes a smile like a goofball :tomatoface:

It's short, but it's still awesome and catchy as hell.
