about

Get out of here DK! This is Diddy’s Quest! Donkey Kong is Nintendo’s original mascot, and he won’t be outdone by any plumbers or his nephew Diddy Kong. Will his groove have enough monkey slap to bring home the bananas…?

Toto, and specifically their song Africa, soared back into the mainstream in 2016 and swept the internet like a second (third?) coming of Rick Astley. It may be an open debate as to why, but there’s no question that Africa has some of the most interesting rhythms and harmonic changes ever to be hidden in a pop chart hit. When selecting a really groovy song for DK, Austin and Andrew agreed that Mining Melancholy hit really hard. As Austin began sketching the arrangement out for the band, he immediately noticed the similarities that Mining had with Africa and thought the mashup would make for an eye-rolling, smile-inducing crowd favorite.
