super mario compact disco

Everyone knows about the horrible licensing flukes that can come out of video game franchises; you can look at any cartoon, and almost all movies based off videos games and be certain that it’ll probably suck. Today I have something to share with you that sucks just as much as the Super Mario Show and the movie, although I must say that John Leguizamo makes a fine Luigi.

Back in ‘93 Nintendo of Japan got Ambassadors of Funk to create an atrocious but awesomely nostalgic, inaccurate, and laughable sampler based electro hip hop album under the pseudonym, MC Mario. It’s terrible, but if you haven’t heard this shit yet than you owe to yourself to download these tracks and don’t worry, I won’t be sad at you for deleting it from iTunes after you play it.

Go on, right click these, I dare you.

Katamari Damacy is an absolutely incredible video game that has been blogged about relentlessly, even better, the soundtrack has been blogged about a lot as well. If you haven’t had a chance to touch the cult hit PS2 game then no better time than the present exists. The art style is absolutely incredible and the premise basically involves you rolling up everything from paper clips to giant squids in an effort to rebuild the start that your drunken father destroyed.

Like I said, the music in the game is absolutely incredible. One of my favorite songs from the game is a fun pop gem by the name of The Prince and the Moon and I first heard it through my friend and awesome artist, Matt Kish.

If you think this song is boss, wait ’till you play the game.

Occasionally I’ll find myself increasingly tired of the human voice and I’ll start to listen to more instrumental music. The one voice I never get tired of is Lenka Kripac’s voice when she sings the theme song for the movie, Somersault. Decoder Ring did the whole soundtrack and theme song could very well be instrumental as it has soft pianos and ambient bass movements but her voice adds to the song rather than retracting from it.

It’s an absolutely gorgeous song and it’s perfect for a cold winter’s day; it won’t warm you up with it’s restless demanour and it’s overall pace and lyrical topic but it’ll give you some hope and perhaps you’ll crack a smile if you’re having a much less than perfect day.
