Ha! I'm long gone from Rare and was on a different team... lead designer of Banjo and a number of the engineers/artists are still there I believe so who knows. Dream can come true!

"Dream can come true!" is not a typo, dear readers.

Here is a video, only released decades later, of the SNES game midnightclubbed refers to, which fell by the wayside as the N64 came about: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w72kj20YNA0

I was surprised to find my jaw dropping at an SNES game after all this time.

Imagine, this and Super Mario World are the same platform!
