Review: The OneUps

Not to be confused with the life giving mushrooms of a certain kingdom, The OneUps is a jazz-fusion music band that doesn't just play video game music, but takes video game songs and revamps them into different styles.  Earthworm Jim's Asteroids songs becomes a bluegrass romp, Bowser gets a heavy metal theme song, Super Mario World's Chocolate Mountain gets combined with a christmas song, etc.

The beauty of The OneUps is that you don't have to be the fan of any particular style to be a fan of theirs, as long as you like video game music.  They are high quality musicians skilled in many different instruments.  If you don't believe me, just go to their site and take a listen.  They have a selection of Free MP3s under the store section.
