Top 10 Mario Kart Tracks with the Best Music
An attempt to make a racing series as a spin-off of a franchise usually fails. Not for Mario Kart though. Nintendo also happens to make great music for their video games and the Mario Kart series is no exception. If you weren't so focused on watching for blue shells then you might have noticed the amazing music and some of the tracks. So let us get startedThe extended version is really good.
Here is the nostalgic song that seems quite victorious, in my opinion, and somehow feels pretty dancey.
Another nostalgic track. This one features underused instruments that make the track sound very charming and makes it feel, well, charming. That's really as much as I can say to describe this.
#15 out of 16? Just listen to it again. This is by far the best in the whole series!
Yep, they managed to combine eerie effects and still make it feel like the music belongs to a track in the Mario Kart series.
Someone listening to this track today might think, "There's no way a sweet, space-vibes song like this could fit in the Nintendo 64." Well, you thought wrong. Nostalgia and space vibes do take place in this wonderful music track, especially for this 6-minute-long, boring race track.
Both the original and the Mario Kart 8 version are great.
If someone is hearing this, he will probably start crying. Something else I noticed is that it is also the longest Mario Kart theme of all time.
It is considered the most emotional of all the Rainbow Road themes in the entire series and even samples N64's Rainbow Road theme. Wow, this is amazing.
Best song in the series by miles. It's in my top 3 best video game songs.
What can I say? It's an iconic, classic music piece.
The Newcomers
Now, this track is just catchy. It captures the shopping vibe and has even gained a little popularity on the side of YouTube. It's great music for a beloved track, unless you keep driving up the wrong escalator every time.
Super-duper catchy. Need I say more?
This epic track provides some sweet adventurous vibes on this chaotic track. This can even give listeners some Super Mario Galaxy vibes. Oh wait, this remixes the theme of one of their songs!
My favorite is still SNES Rainbow Road on GBA (believe it or not), but this makes a close second.
You would not think this is from Mario Kart when you hear it for the first time. This is great, rocking, electric, but memorable music that has ENERGY written all over it. Of course, this makes the track a fan favorite in the series.
Try this on for size! This is a good one!
The reason I chose the Mario Kart 8 version was because the original was just plain. This version, however, is more bouncy and makes it feel like it actually has that clock theme.
Overall, this song brings me back to the first time I ever played Mario Kart on my GameCube. I loved this course and this song from the first time I heard it!
Only the best theme to listen to when driving through a mountain with rocks falling!
