OCR Has Some Serious Monkey Buisness to Do: DKC2 ReMix Album!

Ladies and gentlemen, I proudly present the latest album from OverClocked ReMix, Donkey Kong Country 2: Serious Monkey Buisness. The DKC series have been a source of great entertainment to fans around the world, its music notwithstanding. What makes this release special is the inclusion of its original composer, David Wise, and other special guest musicians from Rare; Robin Beanland an Grant Kirkhope on live trumpet and electric guitar respectively. That goes to show you how tightly-knit the videogame music community is. After all, David himself is a fan of OCR, complementing a ReMix of Aquatic Ambiance by Vigilante awhile back. All what project director Geoffery Taucer did was notify David of this fan-made gift via e-mail and ask if he could honor us with a remix track. The wheels immediately started turning.

Here’s David Wise’s remix of the credits theme featuring his Rare buddies on live instruments. Epic stuff, eh? This also happens to be OCR’s 2000′s track on the site. Coincidence? I think not!

What are you waiting for? Go download the torrent on the official site! You can also download individual tracks if you like. It’s all free!

Congrats once again to OCR for a successful release. Looking forward to more great work in the future! I may post some impressions as soon as I listen to these tracks.
