Here it is - the final level of the Donkey Kong 64 world. Hideout Helm is such an epic finish to the game, with the anxiety inducing timer, counting down the Blast-O-Matic's initial blow to destroy DK Isle for good. I also remember the haunting feeling of the tag barrel's music not triggering when switching characters in this map, and how that further added to the urgency and seriousness of shutting down the machine. I have been waiting for the most opportune time to put this video out, and I chose today as it is DK64's 24-year anniversary North American release. I also chose this track as the last one to go on my upcoming album, "Oh Banana!", a collection of my HD remastered covers coming very soon! I also cannot end this video description without my endless gratitude towards The Game Brass for time/talent/effort on their collaboration with me on this massive arrangement, especially Danny and Thomas Kresge for helping with the organization process. I've been a huge fan of The Game Brass since I fell in love with their Frappe Snowland cover years ago, and have been so lucky to work with/meet some of them irl at GameSoundCon and MAGFest. Their sound worked so perfectly with this cover and were so much fun to hear alongside my already gargantuan instrumentation. Enjoy my cover of Hideout Helm :)
