Holidorks Musical Advent Calendar 2013: Hark! The Herald DKC.
Donkey Kong Country was a massive sales hit for the SNES toward the end of that system’s lifespan and this was largely thanks to those newfangled (and at the time, revolutionary) pre-rendered graphics. But visuals weren’t the only thing the game had going for it as the lush, atmospheric soundtrack was just as impressive. Today’s musical selection isn’t the first to pop into most people’s minds when talking about DKC (that honor probably goes to “Aquatic Ambience“) but it fits in quite nicely with what we’re trying to do here with this advent calendar thingie so in it goes!
