8Bit Aquatic Ambiance v2

Share Download this song

Author Comments

This is my SECOND version of Aquatic Ambiance from Donkey Kong Country. I made this using Famitracker, a sequencing program for making 8-bit styled music. This song uses the expansion chip for the Famicom called the VRC7. The VRC7 uses FM Synthesis.

You can find this and any other songs I've covered on Youtube at my Channel; VolcansMusic. If you have any suggestions or concerns, I'll gladly listen!

I can't believe that in just shy of 6 years no one has so much as commented on this and how its a vast improvement of the first version. I didn't read any of the descriptions at all at first when I came here from someone using your 8bit mix of his world in a joke flash. But when I saw it said "version two" I though "well let me hear the first version real quick."

Just listening to the first version I was thinking some smart arse crap to myself, basically "heh this sounds too detailed to be true 8bit", but seriously thats what I honestly thought on the first version... till I read your description about the Famitracker sequencing program and looked it up. I was unironically thinking about atari style music like a pleb when I thought 8bit, not to say all atari music is garbage in and of itself either per say, but now Im listening to this and Im honestly kind of blown away, especially knowing this could honestly be ported to an actual Famicom technically.

I don't know if you will read this any time soon but when, if ever that you do, just know you have blown a random guy on newgrounds away and also somewhat indirectly schooled me on how good 8bit can technically sound.

VolcansMusic responds:

I'm glad I logged on to Newgrounds today! Thanks for the praises, and I'm glad that you took something away from my ol' uploads.

I don't really touch Famitracker much anymore, but I do still upload music stuff using Mario Paint over on my Youtube Channel from time to time. If you're interested in that at all, come on over! Should still be linked up to my account here.
