ReMix:Donkey Kong Country "Flying with the Funk" 4:11

Lots of great energy in this ReMix. The breakdown was still energetic without being overly hyper and the beat really grooves. Definitely a cool take on the track.

I love how bubbly and organic this tune sounds. Very cool. Tight beats. Solid production. The breakdown in the middle is groovalicious. Fun track all around. Very cool x 2.

This track I REALLY ENJOYED!! I do remember the original piece and just like the barrel plane this gets me movin. Nice job.

RMX is awesome

That's the damn truth! I've never looked back since .

Drums are killer, and that synth lead is absolutely delectable.

Thanks mate, the drums were a lot of fun to work with and I think they turned out decently in the end!

That crazy ass swelling stuff at the beginning is tight as hell. Love the beat work and the synths lay nicely with the mix as a whole.

Rashad, you are too kind as always! The swelling stuff was a very different direction for me to go in with this mix. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Different people? It goes further than that. In fact Global Empire is a one person/3 alt mix

SHHHH!!!! You're going to give it all away. And if it's true, then I just replied to my own post, meaning that I'm talking to myself.......

Glad you liked the piece mate!!

I find it very enjoyable and a great listen, it has that awesome winding texture going that just slowly pulls together, releases a little bit, pulls closer together, and then explodes into awesome.

It's all about the textures, baby! I'm glad you enjoyed the track, mate!

Whoooo, this mix is equal to three scoops of raisins.

I was hoping, at best, that it would have two scoops, but to hear that it has three....wow I only hope that if we meet someday, that you're not going to "wanna kick my ass" !! Thanks for the comments mate!

Liked a lot of the sound design choices, though the synth lead in the chorus didn't work that well for me, for some reason.

Well Vinnie, there's no accounting for taste . That synth is one of the sounds that people either love or hate and truthfully, I'm not even sure why. I was getting similar response in the WIP phase, so I just had to had take the plunge, as it were. However, I'm happy that you found other areas that you enjoyed in the track!

I'm liking the synth lead. Like the interpretation of the melody

Thanks for the kind words, Brian. The melody interpretation is a little liberal and, in reality, it borrows a lot of ideas/melodic themes that bLiNd did in his original!

Not much of a fan of the part between 1:30 and 1:55; a little too grating for my taste.

But other than that, this is a really good remix.

Haha, my first attempt at a "synth solo" and that section is precisely the section that you didn't prefer. I can certainly see why. even listening to it now, I can see a few things in there I would change next time around! I VERY much appreciate the honesty, Martin! I am very happy that you enjoyed the mix!

l enjoyed it a lot and l liked it how you interpreted the original.

Thanks a lot, Brook. The original has always been favorite theme of mine, and having the chance to reinterpret it and have so many people listen to it is quite an honor and privilege! You can certainly expect more craziness from me in the future!

Once again, thanks for all the comments! It really is an honor that I don't deserve!

Cheers all!!

Drums are killer

Excellent beat, cool programming and effects on it. It really is the star. Liked a lot of the sound design choices, though the synth lead in the chorus didn't work that well for me, for some reason. A lot to like here.

Whoooo, this mix is equal to three scoops of raisins.

Been listening to it quite a bit since yesterday.

It would be nice to get more tracks as upbeat and "wanna kick your ass" as this.

Great job over all. I love the drum work. The first 50 seconds of this mix remind me of the scene where Goku goes Super Saiyan 3, then once it hits :51, it's all like "GUNDAM!"

Yeah... I want more of this caliber of musecks.

Funky Kong is a lovable character, and his theme has only made him that much more endearing.

Initially, I was thrown off by this take on the song, since it takes a fairly different approach than bLiNd's. While the synths rock, and the drums keep it going, I just don't feel the connection to the source very well. Separating the song from any inclinations toward the source, I find it very enjoyable and a great listen, it has that awesome winding texture going that just slowly pulls together, releases a little bit, pulls closer together, and then explodes into awesome.

The source material is one of those sacred childhood videogame tunes that always brings me back, so it will take time to see if this grows on me.

Loved this mix since I heard the WIP back in its infancy. Great to see it completed and posted.

To be honest, i was expecting something different from the title. But boy, was I surprised! (in a good way of course)

Drums are killer, and that synth lead is absolutely delectable.

Great work Audix!

You mean they are different people?! I'd never fall for that; that joke was played out in like 2001.

Actually to tell you the truth, it took me a minute to figure out where this came from because I've only listened to Funky Kong's song all the way through like 3 times total through my lifetime lol. That crazy ass swelling stuff at the beginning is tight as hell. Love the beat work and the synths lay nicely with the mix as a whole. Good shit from Tweek as always =).

Yeah, Audix, nice work!
