Returning from Brawl, a remix/medley of several pieces of music from ''Donkey Kong'', starting off with the track that played during the opening in ''Donkey Kong'' on the NES (which also appeared in ''Donkey Kong Country'', where {{s|mariowiki|Cranky Kong}} would play it on his music box). This is followed by the  "Game Start" jingle, the 25m level music, and the music that played when [[Mario|Jumpman]] picked up the [[Hammer (item)|Hammer]]. This remix is based more upon the NES version of ''Donkey Kong'''s soundtrack, rather than the arcade version.

This track from the original ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' is a remix of "DK Island Swing", referred to by ''Ultimate'' as "Jungle Level". In ''Donkey Kong Country'', "DK Island Swing" served as somewhat of a main theme, as it played in many levels, particularly those with a sunset jungle theme. As with ''SSB4'', the song has been abridged from its original version, trimming off the first 32 seconds.

As with ''SSB4'', the song has been abridged from its original version, slightly shortening the heavy drum beat in the opening. It is otherwise faithful to the original track, adapted to the Nintendo 64's sound hardware.

It was previously titled '''"Jungle Level Ver. 2"''' as there was another arrangement of "{{SSBBMusicLink|Donkey Kong|Jungle Level}}" in ''Brawl'', but that version is not included in ''Ultimate''. The song varies widely in styles: it starts out with the original's percussion, becomes a fast-paced progressive rock track, then becomes a sweeping orchestral score before transitioning back into the previous progressive rock approach. This version of the track is abridged, with the opening being slightly shortened.

Returning from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', this is an arrangement of "Snakey Chantey" and "Gang-Plank Galleon". The ''Brawl'' version starts as a sea shanty melody on accordion, then transitions into a hard rock tune.
Returning from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', this is an arrangement of "Snakey Chantey" and "Gang-Plank Galleon". The ''Brawl'' version starts as a sea shanty melody on accordion, then transitions into a hard rock tune, much like the original song. As was the case in ''Wii U'', this remix has been abridged in order for the entire loop to be under two minutes.

This track is a remix of "Stickerbush Symphony" from ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''. This played on each of the bramble-based stages in the game, including the first stage it appeared on, [[mariowiki:Bramble Blast (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Bramble Blast]]. This version of this track uses different instruments, such as acoustic guitar, and feels less stressful than it did within ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''.

|He-he-here we go
So they're finally here, performing for you
If you know the words, you can join in too
Put your hands together, if you want to clap
As we take you through this monkey rap
Huh
DK
Donkey Kong
He's the leader of the bunch, you know him well
He's finally back to kick some tail
His coconut gun can fire in spurts
If he shoots ya, it's gonna hurt
He's bigger, faster, and stronger too
He's the first member of the DK crew
DK
Donkey Kong
DK
Donkey Kong is here
This Kong's got style, so listen up dudes
She can shrink in size, to suit her mood
She's quick and nimble when she needs to be
She can float through the air and climb up trees
If you choose her, you'll not choose wrong
With a skip and a hop, she's one cool Kong
DK
Donkey Kong
He's back again and about time too
And this time he's in the mood
He can fly real high with his jetpack on
With his pistols out, he's one tough Kong
He'll make you smile when he plays his tune
But Kremlings beware 'cause he's after you
DK
Donkey Kong
DK
Haha, Donkey Kong
DK
Donkey Kong
