“Diddy Kong Racing contains some of my all-time favorite game music,” notes album producer and arranger Nicholas Arden Day (aka Nikolyst). “I felt it was only fitting to combine these catchy tunes with EDM. Once I discovered the 20th anniversary of Diddy Kong Racing was approaching, the idea for this album was born.”
