2022 GaMetal kicks off with this medley of several tracks that comprise most of the entire showdown with King Olly from Paper Mario: The Origami King!
This medley features the following 6 songs:
- Battle With King Olly
- Mega Bowser Transformation
- King Olly and Mega Bowser
- Mega Bowser on the Brink
- King Olly on the Brink
- The Final Battle
Most of the Origami King requests from the 2021 ballot were for Battle with King Olly and The Final Battle, but I felt it’d be best to combine them all into a medley to represent the entire final showdown.
You may notice this arrangement sounds fairly similar to the original. Well, that’s because the Origami King soundtrack is already phenomenal! When I first heard it, my initial feeling was ‘this already sounds perfect’, so I felt simply combining the songs into a medley would be the coolest way to tackle these songs.
There are a couple of other songs that play during some between-battle scenes, but I felt they didn’t fit in as well, whereas Mega Bowser Transformation fits perfectly with Battle With King Olly, and the 3 songs from the Mega Bowser vs King Olly phase also work well with each other.
I had originally planned to get this one in the last month of 2021, but decided to move it into the 2022 premiere slot. I’m glad I did, because it took me a lot longer to finish than I first anticipated!
Also, I hope you like the new video set up! That’s another thing that took me some extra time to figure out, but after much trial and error, I believe I have the hang of it now. 🙂
(Don’t stare at the drum shot for too long, it’s all still a work in progress lol)
