Our Take

The OVERGROUND COLLECTIVE's latest album, "Super Mario," is a delightful mix of funky beats, catchy melodies, and nostalgic references that will transport listeners straight back to their childhood gaming days. From the moment you press play, you are greeted with the iconic sounds of coins jingling and Koopa Troopas marching to the beat.

Lead vocalist Princess Peach (yes, really) effortlessly glides through each track, her vocals adding an enchanting layer of whimsy to the already infectious instrumentals. Tracks like "Luigi's Mansion Groove" and "Bowser's Castle Boogie" showcase the band's ability to seamlessly blend genres, creating a sound that is both familiar and fresh.

The production on "Super Mario" is crisp and polished, with each instrument shining through in the mix. The use of 8-bit synths and samples throughout the album adds a playful charm that sets OVERGROUND COLLECTIVE apart from their peers in the jazz-fusion scene.

While some may write off "Super Mario" as a novelty album, to do so would be a grave misstep. This is a work of art that seamlessly weaves together elements of jazz, funk, and video game nostalgia into a tapestry of sound that is as unique as it is entertaining. So grab your controller, power up your speakers, and get ready to embark on a musical journey unlike any other. Princess Peach and the OVERGROUND COLLECTIVE are here to show you that there's more to Mushroom Kingdom than just jumping on Goombas.
