[Episode 21] This month barSILENCE is going bananas to the brilliant musical landscapes of the Donkey Kong Country games on the Super Nintendo!
Let’s celebrate the 29th anniversary of the first game in the Donkey Kong Country series by jamming to the incredible soundtracks of famed Rare composers David Wise and Eveline Novakovic with a little help from Robin Beanland!
Grab your bananas DK Barrels and keep an eye out for banana birds because we’re heading out into the jungles of DK Island swamps of Crocodile Isle and the forests of the Northern Kremisphere!
