By working with Grant Kirkhope – the original composer for the Banjo-Kazooie soundtrack – Blake Harrison’s album features 30 tracks which remains ever-faithful to the source material and promises to deliver over an hour of ‘nostalgic adventure’. In support of the release, Banjo-Kazooie composer Kirkhope said:
“It never ceases to amaze me how many people still listen to the music from the Banjo games after all these years, it really is very humbling. I have to say that I’m really honoured that Blake has taken the time and effort to take those old rough sounding tunes and turn them into something that I think is fantastic… I hope you’ll all agree.”
For more information on the album you can check out the Facebook page and website, but if you simply want to get a feel for the music, you can watch the video posted above. The Banjo-Kazooie Symphony will be released on May 31 and is available for $10 on iTunes and Loudr.
Banjo will never be on nintendo 3ds
Never say never
NEVER
Don’t quote Justin here. :D
Or anywhere else.. Not if you’re a man anyway.
He’ll be on the Xbox One though. I wish Banjo could be on the Wii U or the 3DS though.
He’s not going to be on Xbox One.
First
at failing?
Failures will only make me stronger
at failing?
Practice makes less perfect!
(ok, now say it again!) :D
I am so getting this!
Instead of a techno remix they should release a Banjo boxset with ALL the tracks from the games not just a few selections.
Banjo tooie is easily the best platformer on n64.
I wish that Microshit would get its claws off of Banjo…..
Someone should purchase Micro*hi*.com and forward it to Microsoft.com. That would be so funny.
Kirkhope is a jolly fellow.
WE NEED BANJO KAZOOIE BACK ON NINTENDO PLATFORMS NOW!
I want to hear the village o’ hags and atlantis themes! Hugs!
Cool, i have his Super Metroid one, he did a good job with that
Rare is doing the impossible to get out of Microsoft
gruntildas fucking industries man. that music got me through that insanely hard and infamous level that i always hated. 6 hours later got everything in it as well as the game. ive beat a decent number of games in my life and this was one of the few games i felt an accomplishment by beating everything in it.
also if anybody says this game is kiddy casual shit have them try to complete this level and see if they still think this. http://youtu.be/Y7Zz8QQef5c?t=5s

*Concentrates*
…
…Nope, can’t remember one song from Banjo-Kazooie. That’s a baaaaad sign.
I can’t wait for his symphony :D
At first I was like:
Nooooo this ain’t gonna be a new Banjo game for the Xbox One..
But than I saw symphony and got super exited x)
Mega Man X coming to Wii U eshop on May 30th, here is the trailer

So first we go to a youtube video Pious. We then go to the share tab (across from the like/dislike buttons under the video title) . We then copy the link and paste it like so.

thank you…….. the more you know. kind of ironic that phrase “the more you know”. most people dont know what lies hidden from this world and once you do know and see. the great PIOUS chosen of the darkness will make you not want to know. like the many others that suffered the pain of eternal darkness…….. ahhhahahahahahah. your on your way of not becoming in the darkness… but serving the darkness.

banjo and kazooie transform into xbox gamers

Don’t remind me of that monstrosity of a game :'( I do love how spiral mountain looks though.

Yeah i was gonna say, the game looked good until that point :) Just noticed the conker reference too.
yep the to best rare franchises gone gone……gone. haha see what i did there.

I will go to sleep to this music. Big difference from: this music makes me fall sleep. :)
Can’t wait to hear all of the orchestrated tracks! Both Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie music never ceases to amaze me, which Grant Kirkhope will always be one of my idols. :) I wonder if any tracks from Banjo-Tooie were arranged? If not, then challenge accepted! ;) already have one orchestrated track down from Banjo-Tooie on my SoundCloud.
