Super Mario Kart (theme): Difference between revisions
(→Mario Kart: Super Circuit: At 21 seconds, it's clearly a slowed down version of the second half of the SMK's theme (11s). And the first part is equivalent to the MK64 version, but in different tone and rhythm, and with a few more notes. The first four notes in the MKSC sample are equivalent to the first elongated note in the MK64 sample (14s); the part between 5 and 10 seconds of the first is equivalent to the part between 20 and 27 seconds of the later.) |
