That crazy ass bass at the beginning wtf

[justinus]

For the people wondering, the genre of music this falls in is Jazz Fusion.

[umbreonyoshi]

Tbh, this mario kart probably got some of the best music in Nintendo history

[stanyard]

"how much bass do you want?"
"yes"

[nolanterwilliger]

I’ll never get over that transition to the super Mario kart theme at 1:02

[alastairamos]

Gotta appreciate Nintendo's saxophone phase, because it really slapped.

[ireallydontknowifiamhonest]

this just speaks confidence, gonna blast this through my speakers when i get my driver's license.

[vertz]

I’ve gotta say the Super Mario Kart reference sounds very amazing

[Coolio_Ash]

Who did the soundtrack for this game? Give them and the players an extra million. They deserve it.

[LeotheTiger]

Love the quoting of the very first Mario Kart theme integrated when the song changes to E-flat Major.

I remember it almost vividly; it was 2014, MK8 just dropped, one day after I got back from school, my mom had the game in her hands, and as we got to my room and booted the game up, I knew that I was gonna have the time of my life.

[Dracobyte]

This is Saturday Night Live!

Oh wait.

[breadgaming]

One of the very few songs that gives me chills every time I listen to it just because it's so good.

[OshJoshMakesMusic]

The transition to the Mario Kart leitmotif at 1:02 is satisfying

[ihenryboa]

I love this part, it make me happy 1:03

[PrinceDinoboy]

I love that this game's music is a mix of orchestral jazz and rock.

[abeekuworldchanger]

This Mario Kart definitely has some of the best soundtrack in Nintendo history. Unreal.

[dercarrot]

Nintendo: “We’re making a Mario cart sound track...”
Me: “Neat”
Nintendo: “And it has a Jazzy sound”
Me: “TAKE MY MONEY”

[cdmmwilliii]

0:56 that part is really groovy with headphones

[richardkim]
