In the early 1990s, the band Ambassadors of Funk teamed up with Nintendo to make a Hip Hop album based on games in the Super Mario Bros. series. These songs were later released on an album named Super Mario Compact Disco.

Release[edit | edit source]

While the album was only released in Japan on March 21st, 1993, one song, based on Super Mario Land, was released worldwide as a single on 7" and 12" records, on CD, and as of 2009, it is on iTunes. A promotional video was made for the song.

The video was up on YouTube for a while but was removed due to a copyright claim by Living Beat Records. However, the video has also been uploaded to other websites, such as Dailymotion. Images and gifs of the video were uploaded to Dorkly in a review of the video.[1]

Summary[edit | edit source]

It was filmed at the Chessington World Of Adventures, and possibly another location. It featured "M.C. Mario" singing along to the song, two dancers, and a person in a Mario costume dancing in a Wild West-themed attraction, the "Mystic East" attraction in the World Of Adventures and some of the other rides at the park.
