It's here! I've teased a Thomas the Tank Engine Theme jazz arrangement for quite a while now, and finally decided to bring it to the channel. This song may be a meme, but it's also a very personal theme to me, since I was super obsessed with Thomas the Tank Engine when I was a little kid! It's awesome to me to see my obsession with trains meld together with my current obsession with music. Hope you guys enjoy all the little things I threw into this song!

I should mention - I am using a new microphone! I decided to upgrade my microphone to the AEA N8, which is a modern ribbon microphone! It is one of the most natural-sounding microphones I've ever heard, I have to do next to no processing to get a beautiful saxophone sound out of it. Thank you Patrons for helping fund this purchase, and also thanks to the folks at AEA for allowing me to try out a few different models :)

As for what's coming next, I think it's going to be a DELTARUNE cover! People have been bugging me about it, and I am very excited to tackle some of the music from this game. Hope you're excited!

- Carlos

As a child, I was a huge fan of Thomas the Tank Engine. I used to have "train conventions" with my dad every night where we'd line up all my Thomas the Tank Engine toys on the floor of my bedroom, and my dad would make up funny voices for each train and just talk about what happened that day! It's one of my fondest memories of childhood. This theme was a big part of my childhood as well. I had a lot of Thomas episodes on VHS, and I don't think I knew how to fast-forward past the intro theme, so I definitely recall listening to this song many times as a kid! It's so cool to see music from my childhood being celebrated to this day. This tune is actually really really harmonically interesting - it's not quite as simple as you'd expect. There's a good amount of sudden modulations, which keep the song interesting and lend themselves very well to a jazz arrangement in my style! I'm very fortunate to have access to a good alto saxophone now (thanks, Sab!), so you'll be seeing some alto parts on a few more videos of mine in the future. It was a lot of fun to arrange for the full AATTB saxophone section and experiment with different types of voicings! (Also, if anyone noticed that I don't have a reed on in some of the shots in the video, I had to re-shoot some shots for this song in my apartment! Noise rules are strict, so I didn't put a reed on in an effort to keep it down. It's 100% my playing though!) ♫ “Thomas The Tank Engine" from “Thomas the Tank Engine" composed by Mike O'Donnell & Junior Campbell SOCIAL MEDIA: 🐦 Twitter • • • https://twitter.com/insanerainmusic 📘 Facebook • • • https://www.facebook.com/Insaneintherainmusic 📷 Instagram • • • https://instagram.com/insaneintherainmusic ❤️ Patreon • • • http://bit.ly/supportinsane ⚙️ Gear • • • https://www.amazon.com/shop/insaneintherainmusic 🔊 Distrokid VIP Link • • • http://distrokid.com/vip/insane
