Rainbow Funk (Rainbow Road Remix)

MP3: http://tweaker.sonicretro.org/music/R... I love Rainbow Road. It's my favorite level from Super Mario Kart and pretty much every Mario Kart game it's been featured in. That's why when King Meteor (   / kingmeteorstudios  ) of VGMusic fame made a remix (   • Super Mario Kart - Rainbow Road (Ultimate ...  ) of the song using the Ultimate Megadrive soundfont, I was pretty psyched! I really loved the arrangement he made, but I felt that with a better soundscape it could sound even better. 10 minutes after receiving an email with the MIDI as an attached file, I got to work. These are the results. When I listened to the original remix, I got a super 80s vibe from the bassline; this ended up being the inspiration for my take on the arrangement. I picked an FM bass fairly similar to the instrument used in his version and followed up with some oldschool synth brass for the chords. I made sure to maintain this "retro" vibe the whole way through. It ended up turning out really cool! Here's hoping you guys feel the same. :)
