In this video I tackle Super Mario Bros.' iconic underwater theme, breaking down how the music fits the rhythm of the game's underwater levels and how it develops just a couple musical ideas in to a full, satisfying piece.

0:23 - Matching the Rhythm of the Gameplay
2:59 - Chromatic Neighbour Embellishment
5:20 - Developing the Piece Out of These 2 Ideas
8:20 - Ending Section
10:29 - Outro
