NSMBWii Snow Overworld Theme (New Super Mario Bros. DS-Styled Remix)

So maybe I clickbaited a little bit when I said this was a remix of the NSMBWii version.

Really, the main thing I noticed about NSMBWii's snowy overworld theme is that, like... it's barely different from the overworld theme at all? And I don't say that because it's a remix of the regular overworld theme, I say that because it's almost verbatim just the regular overworld theme again with the same instruments, same notes, same everything except for some jingle bells and maybe 1 or 2 different instruments. As such, I thought taking that approach for a NSMBDS demake would sound really lame, and I wanted to make it a lot more of a proper snowy arrangement as a result.

Originally I thought of making it a lot more radical of a change, taking a Bob Omb Battlefield → Snow Mountain approach to its melody like SM64 did, but I couldn't figure out how to make it sound good so more faithful it was. I also did lean a lil more faithful partially to make it at least somewhat of a logical jump between this theoretical DS track and the NSMBWii track. I'm pretty happy with the result, it sounds like warm & cute which was always the vibe the tileset & background of NSMBDS's snowy levels always gave me.
