Admittedly, I had never heard of Crypt of the NecroDancer (COTN) up until a few weeks ago. I got a DM from Fearagent around the same time as GDQ where he asked me if I had seen the amazing SMW relay race hack (titled Legends of the Hidden Thwimple) run by Barbarian, juzcook, CarlSagan42, shovda, Shoujo, and ThirdWall. I can’t overstate how awesome this video is because each of the levels are so creative, and the runners are some of the best in the game. One of the main reasons Fear told me to watch it though was because of the music in the last level.
It’s from COTN, titled Konga Conga Kappa, and was a perfect addition to the level in the hack. I don’t want to spoil the video, but it’s a must watch (along with the rest of the other levels, especially the 4th one).
Once Fear reached out, I had to listen to the Konga track and was immediately hooked. I downloaded the music from the game and since the whole album is filled with great tracks I knew I had to make an MSU from it.
It took a little while to pull together, only because it was difficult to narrow down a top ~20. Luckily there were the perfect amount of tracks to get each dungeon its own music, and still have enough for 3 separate boss tunes (LW dungeons, DW dungeons, and Aga 1/2).
This has easily become a new favorite pack of mine, and I’m happy to share it with you!
