David Wise is a master of his craft, he superbly makes “something that sounds like a doorbell at best sound like a piece of music” [in his own words]. Donkey Kong Country came out nearly 3 decades ago and the music still resonates; few scores so thoroughly describe a game as well as this one.
This piece from IGN goes through the history of Wise’s career and the making of the DKC soundtrack. The focal point is the water level [Aquatic Ambience], but they are all nearly perfect.
