We got another one! Our friends at Game Junction brought this to our attention (thanks again), and it’s definitely worth a listen. The musician known as Something is Real is responsible for the incredible rendition of Nirvana’s breakthrough album Nevermind using only sounds from Super Mario 64 that we recently shared. Naturally they’ve moved onto the band’s followup (and sadly their final) album In Utero. Despite being an intensely raw recording – even more than its predecessor due to the hands-off approach of producer Steve Albini – the comforting SoundFonts from Nintendo’s groundbreaking 3D platformer somehow work beautifully. The album has its familiar hits such as “Heart Shaped Box” and “All Apologies”, but both the original and this new quirky take are highly enjoyable from beginning to end.
