THIS ONE WAS SO MUCH FUN. I love these 80's jams, and getting to work with Doug, Anthony, and Sammy was an absolute pleasure. We strove to emulate the style of the fusion band Steps Ahead with this cover, and I think we did a pretty dang good job.

I started working on this last August, and the file remained on my hard drive, unused... up until April of this year! I reconnected with Anthony (bassist) and got everything set up to finish production on this awesome track. Hope you guys enjoy.

Also, we're shockingly close to that $600 mark on Patreon... you guys are crazy. Thanks so much for the support! In case you missed my posts on social media, I was actually able to purchase a 5-string electric bass with help from your guys' generous contributions! Thanks so much <3

Next week we're tackling Don't Speak Her Name from Fire Emblem Awakening :)

Pokémon Diamond / Pearl: Route 225 - Jazz / 80's Cover || insaneintherainmusic

Arguably the best postgame music in any Pokémon game ever. Love me some 80's vibes. Insaneintherainmusic's jazz cover / remix of Route 225 (Day) from Pokémon Diamond / Pearl / Platinum, featuring Doug Perry on Vibes, Anthony on Bass & Sammy (Spiro) Dussias on the guitar solo at the end! Check out Doug's channel (vibes player)! https://www.youtube.com/user/DougDrumUltimAPerry 💎 Watch more Pokémon Diamond / Pearl covers (there are a LOT of them!): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLG5z-46tZguJWyKRGv5ZNS7WxpnoPwjyn 🎷 Subscribe for more Video Game Jazz! • • • http://bit.ly/insanesubscribe 🎵 Download this Cover • • • http://smarturl.it/route225iitr 🎼 Sheet Music • • • http://bit.ly/2qDzRfp What a fantastic tune. This is one of the grooviest tunes in all of the Gen 4 soundtrack, and definitely makes my top 5 tunes of the soundtrack. You guys know how much I love Pokémon Diamond & Pearl's music, so me saying that means quite a bit! This route was a great way to kick off the postgame in Diamond and Pearl. If Game Freak had simply chosen to recycle a route theme from a past region, I don't think this route would have the same impact. Also, those claps. THOSE CLAPS. 👏 👏 After my previous experiment with 80's covers in the form of Big Blue, I thought this song would be the next best fit. This song is oddly reminiscent of Van Halen's "Jump", which features some sick synth brass parts. I aimed to incorporate those into this song, along with some influence from "Trains" by the fusion group Steps Ahead, which was led by one of my favorite sax players of all time: Michael Brecker. I make jazz covers & remixes of video game music every Saturday at 12:30 PM EST on my channel! My channel combines my loves of jazz and video game music, creating covers and remixes you'll enjoy. ♫ "Route 225 (Day)" from "Pokémon Diamond / Pearl / Platinum" composed by Go Ichinose ❤️ Patreon • • • http://bit.ly/supportinsane 👕 Shirts • • • http://bit.ly/insaneshirts 🎷 My Equipment • • • http://kit.com/insaneintherainmusic 🔊 Distrokid VIP Link • • • http://distrokid.com/vip/insane ❕Submit a Song Request• • • https://goo.gl/forms/bvIwgRSjrU3vyxGG3 Insaneintherainmusic on Social Media: 🐦 Twitter • • • https://twitter.com/insanerainmusic 📘 Facebook • • • https://www.facebook.com/Insaneintherainmusic 📷 Instagram • • • https://instagram.com/insaneintherainmusic
