This is fucking amazing.

 

[javac]

They're working just fine on my HTC One (M7).

Damn, well thanks for the effort on the thread anyways! I'm just opening them up in the YouTube app instead. Dat Dolphin Shoals. Dat Sax.

 

[darkziosj]

Dat guitar and jazz in the main theme

 

[The Xtortionist]

Dolphin Shoals is too fucking good.

 

[metsallica]

I will spend whatever it takes to own this on CD.

 

[Schnozberry]

The Celtic feel to Moo Moo Meadows is absolutely perfect. I owe whoever wrote that music a hug. It's exactly the type of tune that makes me want to roll up a joint and have a barbecue with my friends up at my family's Lake cabin.

 

[RurouniZel]

This has made my evening.

Thank you!

 

[MannyToons]

This soundtrack is extremely impressive for a Mario Kart title. It seems like Nintendo has adopted this jazz-like style into their games nowadays, and I can't get enough of it. I just love to see the amount of effort going into this game. A Mario Kart title.

Goddamn, the Mario Kart 8 theme is something else.

 

[Ashodin]

Dat royal raceway. holy shieeet

 

[Loco4Coco]

Sherbet Land is still my favorite.

 

[Interceptor]

I love how the soundtrack is made by a top notch orchestra and still gamey.

 

[Mistle]

how'd the uploader get access to all these files?

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

I cannot wait for the new zelda music!

 

[Brqan]

I don't know why but parts of toad harbor give me feels.

 

[ffdgh]

how'd the uploader get access to all these files?

They're all on the offical site with videos . http://mariokart8.nintendo.com/tracks/

 

[Bullza2o]

Nintendo game OSTs are always masterpieces, yet they seem to improve with each new game.

 

[Exile20]

Nintendo is on a roll. SM3DW, DKCTF and now MK8.

This music is just top notch. The feels are strong within me

 

[Sami+]

Damn, Bone Dry Dunes sounds really rad.

 

[RagnarokX]

Tick Tock Clock is great. Nintendo's gonna clean up soundtrack of the year awards if it keeps putting out stuff like this and Donkey Kong.

They'll get passed up as usual. Kid Icarus Uprising got fucking robbed of best soundtrack and best characters.

 

[Net_Wrecker]

Love, love, love the jazz flavor from 3D World and this game. I have to echo people getting Sega flashbacks because some of these feel Dreamcast as hell.

Rainbow Road is clearly an anime ED.

Speaking of anime, Bowser's Castle sounds ripped right out of Cowboy Bebop.

 

[Fandangox]

Dat Bowser's Castle.

Wouldn't be so out of place in a Guilty Gear game.

 

[Neiteio]

Where's the Electrodrome theme? One of the best in the game.

 

[TWILT]

Dat Rainbow Road 64.

 

[Astorgh]

Wow, this is beyond amazing.

 

[Hyperactivity]

They have been making amazing soundtracks as of late but,...


Yoshis New Island

 

[Neiteio]

Here's my favorite one at the moment, from the Koopalings nightclub stage, Electrodrome.

Also, Wario Stadium DS sounds great. Same melody as Waluigi Pinball, I believe.

Yesssssss

 

[Amazeballs]

Yoshis New Island

Which was licensed to a lesser studio, and by extension composer. There are still some good songs if you look past the mediocre ones.

 

[Net_Wrecker]

Here's my favorite one at the moment, from the Koopalings nightclub stage, Electrodrome.

This is like half Daft Punk scored Genesis Sonic game, and half future themed Mario kart. So good.

Shy Guy Falls. Much adventure.

 

[Kriken]

Dat N64 RR remix... so glad they chose the best version of RR to remix

 

[AdanVC]

There are concerts, just not global ones.

HNGHH! This is amazing! I haven't hear any of this. Thanks a lot for sharing it! Now more than ever I really want this guys to go on tour around the world omg!

 

[princemarth23]

Electrodrome's theme reminds me of Super Monkey Ball. Catchy stuff.

 

[OceanBlue]

I haven't listened to them all, but I really like the Main Theme and Cloudtop Cruise. It's a really nice soundtrack!

 

[Neiteio]

This is like half Daft Punk scored Genesis Sonic game, and half future themed Mario kart. So good.

Hahaha, amazing description. So true.

 

[Neiteio]

Listening to the Bowser's Castle and Electrodrome themes, I so want a Bowser spinoff where Bowser and the Koopalings go on an epic 3D adventure. Donkey Kong, Yoshi and Wario have their own series, so... Please, Nintendo?

 

[TheSpaceBetween]

Good for Mario Kart's standards, that's about it though.

 

[EdibleKnife]

 

[Interceptor]

*Reggielasereyes*

 

[Proven]

From watching the direct, the fact that they made the damn Moo Moo Meadows song awesome means I need to bookmark this thread and make a playlist of these tracks.

 

[The Xtortionist]

Dat N64 RR remix... so glad they chose the best version of RR to remix

I kinda like Double Dash's, myself.

 

[Kodaman]

Holy shit dat Moo Moo..


That one will go to my playlist of joy.. alongside Windmill Hills and Gusty Garden Galaxy.

 

[TheSpaceBetween]

*Reggielasereyes*

Haha. I don't think there has been any racing game ever that I have had the desire to listen to the music outside of the context of the game, and MK8 does nothing to change that. Glad people are enjoying it though.

 

[Insaniac]

Nintendo has been hitting out of the park with their Soundtracks, I loved SM3DW, and Smash Bros has always been amazing


Didn't one of the tunes have Gusty Garden in it?

 

[flc]

Damn, we got some nice tunes here.

 

[MicH]

Soooooo good!!! The main theme especially is eargasmic

 

[BM8]

Good for Mario Kart's standards, that's about it though.

This ost sets a whole new standard for Mario Kart games. It sounds like it could be in multiple genres.

 

[Why would you do that?]

The last two had great soundtracks as well.

How did they get these samples?!

If you mean the sound samples used for midi music, well, this game (as shown in the Direct) is all or mostly played with live instruments at a recording session. Electric guitars, big band instruments, and all.

If you mean you wonder how the uploaders got the full songs, then I really wonder that, too. Maybe there's finally a sound test in the game?

 

[Zalman]

Looks like the massive success of Mario Kart Wii really increased the production value of this game.

I'll try not to listen to too much before I get the game, but what I've heard so far sounds fantastic.

 

[Why would you do that?]

Haha. I don't think there has been any racing game ever that I have had the desire to listen to the music outside of the context of the game, and MK8 does nothing to change that. Glad people are enjoying it though.

I mostly agree actually, even including Mario Kart, but I think you should play F-Zero GX (or most other SEGA racing games) and enjoy life.

The music in Mario Kart has always been great to me, but very rarely "put on mp3 player great" like some video game music. Mario Kart's music is really awesome in-game, though. It works really well with the racing.

 

[The Xtortionist]

Not even this?
