I listened to it back to back with the original and i admit i enjoy this one more. I don't really like the synth that comes in with the lead at about 1:50. I see what you were doing with a high synth a low synth with the lead but i didn't really like the sound it made. The lead is amazing though. I've never heard anything quite like it. I really enjoy the song up untill 1:50 and then i just kind of like it from then to the end.

Well besides the fact that it shouldn't be in the ambient section, it needs more cowbell. lol snl reference.
The song isn't that bad but often songs with only drum and percussion aren't very good. The only good ones i've heard were played on real drums.

I Like this a lot. Its kind of repetitive but i didn't get bored of the melody at any point during the song. The synth That starts at :50 seconds was a little bit hard compared to the chill mood set by the intro. I just thing a cubase synth would work better. Besides that i really like this.

I Really like the synths you used but the drums were kind of lacking. I wish you would have passed it through some equalization at parts. IE low/high band pass filters. Usually drum and bass tends to be heavier but you did pretty good without overload on the synths. You have some potential and i might look at some more of your work later.

I'm not sure why you put my neighbor totoro in there, (was there a game?) BUt i almost cried anyway. Any songs in the movies made by the guy who made totoro reminds me of my childhood and that was an emotional song for me. I liked the brawl waiting room alot slowed down. At 5:37 when you added a the lower piano notes i didn't really like it as much though, it didn't really fit. The mushroom way didn't really sound right though since it was kind of hard to distinguish the notes.

Alot of the instruments feel familiar. I use the guitar 4 synth in sytrus all the time and i really liked what you did with it. It had a nice build up and It had a nice beat. I liked the drum kit you used too.

Thanks for the review. Electric 4, amyleigh were some of what I used if you are curious.

I saw the name on the audio portal front page and thought to myself "oh great another attempt at punk" after i clicked it and saw your username i instantly realized how epic this song was going to be. I've been waiting for you to make another vg cover and it was just great to come upon it on accident. I really like the drums in this one.
Author's Response:
Haha dude I can guarantee that any punk covers you see on here will be us. And I've wanted to do this one for a while, it's my favorite Mario theme. Thanks for the support! Peace bro. =P

It sounded great until the part where you screamed TROGDOR!!!! There were two voices, the high one was what i wanted to hear but the lower one kind of took away from the high one. it was pretty good besides the lower voice.

I don't really like it when people use premade loops in music but you did some original stuff around it. That one loop is from the toxic biohazard, its like the scientist or inventor or something like that. The drum loop is pretty good. This is pretty somber for trance, the only somber trance i can think of is goa trance which is still more upbeat then this. It really just repeats itself and only adds one instrument the whole time.

Why wouldn't this be welcome on newgrounds? This is great. It's not something you would expect to work well in 8 bit. The only problem was that the drum was really loud compared to the leads.
