[The audio has a low hum in the background; somehow my mic picked up the noise from my PC. I did my best to remedy it so my apologies.]
Yup, it’s another episode celebrating another game, this time Donkey Kong 64, first released on November 22, 1999. This action adventure game places Donkey Kong in 3D, allowing the player to explore DK Isle as he rescues the rest of the Kong family and the island itself from K. Rool’s Blast-O-Matic weapon. It is also one of two games that required the Expansion Pak for the N64 (The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask).
We’ll be playing several original tracks from the game, along with their covers and remixes. Yes, we’ll also talk a little bit about one of the game’s infamous tracks: the DK Rap.
It’s time to get bananas and get down and funky…
