♫ Super Playlist Mario
I remember the days when I had time and energy to record huge soundtracks from games. I’d spend my days off with audio cables run across my lap, a controller in one hand, the mouse in the other with headphones glued to my ears. So I really appreciate the work of whoever recorded the massive Super Paper Mario soundtrack. There’s a few unavoidable sound effects here and there but it’s an incredible recording and has some really great music.
Like New Super Mario Bros. the music offers an eclectic mix of new sounds and throwback 8-bit synthesized tunes mingled with just enough classic Mario themes to keep you grinning the whole way through. It’s obvious in Lineland Road and Nostalgic Underground but Castle Bleck’s bleep-bloop melodies conjure up a Castlevania vibe where Tilt Island brings Mario Sunshine to mind. Enjoy!
