Can 8-bit and I tell if music is Classical or from a Mario game? I grew up in Australia, yes I know I pronounce Mario funny.

  • Man this was so much harder than I thought it would be! Thanks for having me on!!
  • Fun fact: The water land theme from mario 3 was actually used as the basis for the fairy fountain theme in zelda.
  • "That jump would be very hard to do on an actual piano" And you think Mozart cares?!
  • The one at the beginning it's actually a classical piece ("A maiden's prayer" by T. Badarzewska), but it's been adapted for that specific use, soooo... 50/50?😅
  • @AlexPies1
    actually very surprised Ben didn't get the Mario 64 final boss theme right away. that's so iconic
  • @lilkittygirl
    “Didn’t re-release this game” Well that aged like lettuce
  • Was surprised 8BMT didn't immediately recognize Ultimate Bowser
  • Guessing with them is fun, but knowing the song and hearing them use logic to determine the incorrect answer is great.
  • @Svit.S
    Lol the first example is indeed a classical piece but I guess that Mario game made a cover of it
  • I really love this little series of guessing video game music vs classical music. You guys should really consider doing a Castlevania vs. Classical music, because there's so much classical influences within the Castlevania series. I think that would be a very challenging one.
  • @victreeee
    It’s true that #1 is from Mario but the original music was written by a Polish composer Tekla Bądarzewska-Baranowska in 1856. It’s called Modlitwa dziewicy for those who are interested
  • @Marklar3
    The parallel octaves in a contrapuntal context at the start of the 3rd measure of the Valentina theme give it away. edit: and Ultimate Bowser for the same reason. The last measure has parallel octaves with the bass and soprano voice.
  • Yoko Shimamura actually left Capcom for Square because they wanted to work on more classical music. Mario RPG was her first Square project I believe
  • oh my god, it's so weird to see 8bit's face while he talks. in my mind, i just imagined his disembodied voice without a face lol other face reveals had a little of this effect, but i've never had one THIS strong edit: btw the video is nice tho
  • Let’s take a moment to appreciate the musical talent of video game music composers. Often we tend to ostracize artists away from conventional forms of media and belittle their ability for it, but I think this settles the debate that you don’t have to be signed to a billion dollar label or be a classical music artist to be musically gifted and genius. To Koji Kondo, Yoko Shimomura, Grant Kirkhope and many others, we owe you our undying respect.
  • It would be funny if all of these were classical themes that were borrowed and adapted for Mario. "Mario Zart", IOW
  • Number 1 was essentially a remix of Tekla Bądarzewska-Baranowska's A Maiden's Prayer. So is it really Mario? I mean it isn't Mozart.
  • For #8, I could've sworn that was Grandma's Theme from Zelda: The Wind Waker. The melody and countermelody are so close. To be fair, there is plenty of crossover between Mario and Zelda music (as the ending of this video showed!)
  • The first 3 measures of the sample from Danse des Furies sounds like it directly inspired Ghostly Galaxy.
