The OneUps (Anthony Lofton, Tim Yarbrough, William Reyes, Jared Dunn, Mustin) de Arkansas (USA)
Hi ha coses rares o curioses, aquest grup americà que es dediquen s’ha realitzar versions jazzy, funky, fusió de temes dels vídeo jocs, fins ara 2 volums de versions, i ara li toca el torn a tot un àlbum dedicat a realitzar versions del super gran joc de carreres de cotxes ‘Super Mario Kart’. Curiós
Now that every kid with a guitar has a video of himself on YouTube covering the “Super Mario Bros.” theme, the video game music cover has become mainstream. There is still one group of musicians, however, that stands a cut above the rest. The OneUps, based out of Fayetteville, AR, exclusively play video game music in a variety of styles. The sound of the primarily Fusion/Funk/Jazz five-piece group has been described as what you might get “if George Clinton [Parliament-Funkadelic] banged a Nintendo.” (Earnest Cavalli, Destructoid.com)
