This sounds like an inspirational Christian rock ballad.
But instead of being about Jesus, it's about Captain Falcon.

Ryo is a safe bet since he also did Mario Kart Wii
RR64 is the music that you listen to when you die

Agreed on all fronts. Smash Bros. will deliver an amazing soundtrack, as well.There's some hair metal, too...if you're into that
To the original point, I'd say both F-Zero X and GX have incredible soundtracks by any standard. I've never really considered MK's music to be listenable outside of the games, but MK8's looks to turn that around. Between 3D World, Tropical Freeze, and MK8, Nintendo is going all fucking out on their AAA soundtracks.
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?
Are there any Mario Galaxy inspired tracks?
Seems like a missed opportunity here if the answer is no.
Dolphin Shoals is absolutely incredible.
OP missed Twisted Mansion, btw.

Ninetales Commander said:Oh I get why they've put Rainbow Road from Nintendo 64 on Mario Kart 8.
What is 8 times 8? 64, very clever Nintendo.
Cloudtop Cruise has a Gusty Garden sample.
I doubt that's the reason, but holy shitFrom a Youtube comment:

Do we know the composers?
Some of these absolutely sound like Ryo Nagamatsu, the composer for ALBW and Nintendoland. I like him a lot, but sometimes his stuff is a tiny bit *too* similar.
I like it. But honestly, after Mario 3D World and this, I feel like I'm at someone's 60th wedding anniversary party.
This is basically Mario OSTs now. My grandma would probably love it.

Regarding F-Zero X and GX, I recognize them both as great soundtracks, but I definitely prefer the style of X. From the "HOO... RAH... HOO... RAH" on the character select screen, to the wailing buttrock guitars on each course, it's just exquisitely extreme.
I doubt that's the reason, but holy shit
Also, Star Cup is amazing in this game. Sunshine Airport, Dolphin Shoals, Electrodrome AND Mount Wario? I foresee this being my most replayed Grand Prix.
You have a point. In fact the one thing I wasn't impressed with in the original MK8 trailers was the music. It lacked impact and seemed to get lost in the background. But the main theme performed in the recent Nintendo Direct got me back on board. On its own, this stuff sounds fantastic. But I think you need very good sound speakers/headphones to appreciate these complex live instrument arrangements during gameplay, and even then it can be overwhelming. There is certainly something to be said for more simple electronic tones, and it's not just nostalgia talking.Call me crazy, but I think I prefer my Nintendo music cheaper and more electronic sounding. This whole real orchestration music doesn't really stand out during gameplay.

I love how well Nintendo's composers combine orchestrated and synth sounds together. They've been perfecting that since Mario Galaxy.
LolIt's nice to see EAD finally stepping their production quality up. I'm going to assume Sega's biannual Mario & Sonic mixes finally lit a fire under their collective asses.
that Moo Moo Meadows track is not the remake of the N64 one, or is it?
That one got already remade for the Wii version...

No no moo moo farms is what you're thinking of from mario kart 64 and it was a retro for mario kart 3ds. Moo moo meadows is from mario kart wii
