Smooth McGroove – “Super Mario Bros. 3 – Airship Theme Acapella!” (Inst. // Audio)
Digital Single
YouTube – Dec. 10, 2025
*Smooth McGroove – “Super Mario Bros. 3 – Airship Theme Acapella!” (Inst.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avC5R1SbwWg // Super Mario Bros 3 encapsulates many of my early Nintendo memories, and the Airship theme is forever etched into my brain as my friend and I tried in vain to beat this game one weekend while I was over at his house. We heard this song so many times while we failed to beat the last couple worlds! It’s a well-written, short & sweet, impending sounding song that makes you feel like you’re fighting against some great evil. Bowser definitely counts as that! I enjoyed arranging this song, embellishing a bit on it, and taking inspiration from other arrangements I’ve heard in the past, and putting it all to vocals. Hope you all enjoy it!*
