Nintendo posted a new behind the scenes video for Super Mario Odyssey today showing the recording of Jump Up, Super Star! – or more specifically, the instrumental music behind it. You can view this below.
Nintendo says that it considered a variety of music genres for the song, but went with a jazzy style in the end that matched the game. 17 people were brought in to record.

制作時には様々なジャンルを検討したのですが…ゲームに合わせて明るいジャズ風の曲調にしました!演奏者だけで17人という、迫力あるビッグバンド編成で収録したんです。 pic.twitter.com/qkfWyA94jy— スーパーマリオ オデッセイ (@mario_odysseyJP) February 28, 2018

The game begins as main character Pete wakes from a strange coma, only to find that things aren’t as he remembers. You’ll be exploring a strange and terrifying land, fighting against some scary enemies with your trusty barber’s blade, and more.
