First and foremost, the soundtrack of this game welcomed me with a spine chilling, upbeat new direction of fast paced big band jazz from the recently discovered Mario Kart Band. All music in the game is performed by this band of highly skilled musicians under the musical direction of longtime Nintendo composers Koji Kondo, Shiho Fujii, Atsuko Asahi and Yasuaki Iwata. When the main menu screen appeared after loading the game, I was lost in the sound of big brass, toe tapping funk bass, shredding over-driven guitar and, from time to time, synth solos. It provided such a live feel to the gaming experience and, due to the nature of the Mario Kart series itself, it made me feel like I was about to enter into a 1970’s car chase movie. The main theme certainly followed through on the task of getting the players pumped up for a long and intense race. The new musical direction also adds to the shiny charm and nature of a typical Mario game. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has also brought some old tracks from past instalments of the series and even went as far as bringing in tracks from other game franchises. So far these include Hyrule Circuit from the Legend of Zelda and the iconic Mute City from rival race series F-Zero. Firstly, to hear a jazz/rock cover of the LoZ theme was really a bonus and it felt almost too surreal to be playing a LoZ-like race course in a Mario Kart game. Nevertheless, it was truly a pleasure to hear. As for the F-Zero course, it was on another level of racing intensity! Being familiar with the franchise, it features a lot more heavy grit and character, so to flip an F-Zero track into the Mario Kart universe and bring that distinct 80’s metal lead guitar to start the race was beyond amazing. To then add to this by providing the Mario Kart Band’s own jazz cover of it really added to the need for speed!
