So happy to be releasing this arrangement with the insaneintherainmusic Collective! I spent a lot of time in the Subspace Emissary in Super Smash Bros Brawl as a kid, and this particular song really stuck with me - it's one of the extremely rare occasions where a remix of a song from a different game ends up in another game, and takes on its own distinct personality. I wanted to transcribe and arrange this song so I could understand just how this arranging feat was achieved, and while we're at it, why not do a full jazz arrangement of it with my band? This was SO much fun to do, and everybody's performances really made this turn out super nicely :)

Bramble Blast (Super Smash Bros. Brawl) Jazz Cover - insaneintherainmusic Collective

The unofficial anthem of the Subspace Emissary! Sheet Music • • • https://bit.ly/3DgcSJT Support my music on Patreon • • • http://bit.ly/supportinsane Guitar - Josh Vasquez (@Xnarky) Piano & Synth Bass - Rob Kovacs (@88bit) Fretless Bass & Violin - Nico Mendoza (@Nico Mendoza Music) Drumset - Dom Palombi (@Dom Palombi) This song is so unique! There are a huge amount of remixes and arrangements of game music for Smash, but throughout the history of Smash, few have stood out to me as much as this track. This is a remix of “Stickerbush Symphony” from Donkey Kong Country 2, which is a masterpiece in and of itself, but somehow manages to construct an entirely new narrative out of the original track. While the original track is pretty calm and relaxing, this arrangement is much more driving and energetic, while retaining some of the lightness of the original. I associate this track most with playing the Subspace Emissary, one of my fondest childhood gaming memories 🙂 Overall, this track is a brilliant example of how a new arrangement or remix can completely change a source song, and give it a new meaning, or life of its own entirely! I definitely learned a lot from transcribing this arrangement, and hope you dig the arrangement for this ensemble 😄 This was an arrangement I DEFINITELY could have not pulled off on my own, since there are so many moving parts and intricate little things going on in the background! Big shoutouts to all the band members for their awesome playing and contributions to the overall recording! ♫ "Bramble Blast" composed by David Wise, Original Arr.
