SM64 Custom Music: Fungi Forest Mine Cart (Donkey Kong 64)

*This port only contains one new instrument: that being some Marcato Strings. More details are in the description below. After a month break (or 2 months since the last uploaded port), I finally made a new port, this time featuring Donkey Kong. I'm a huge fan of the mine cart music used throughout the Donkey Kong games. However, my favorite mine cart music derives from Donkey Kong 64. I love how each of them are bombastic, frantic, and unique for their designs. Grant Kirkhope did a phenomenal job with them (I mean I can listen to them for hours as if that wasn't obvious!) I cherish Grant's music a ton as it was a huge part of my childhood. His instrumentation used throughout Banjo-Kazooie, Donkey Kong 64, and Banjo-Tooie will remain gold in my book! This music plays in the Mine Cart section of the Fungi Forest level. For this port, I went back with vanilla instruments with the exception of Marcato Strings being the only new instrument here. Shortening the main String notes wouldn't be the definition of having Marcato Strings, so I went to the original source of the SM64 Strings and got some there to deviate from the main strings. It contrasts the two strings from overlapping each other and keeps a consistent balance of instruments used throughout the music. It's been months since I've mostly used vanilla instruments for a port. No need to fret! I never said I would drop those type of ports. I'm still doing those, but with adding new instruments that blends with the existing instruments!
