Jeeeeesus, that tone quality on the higher register!!
Haha, one of the nice things that only the EWI can do! :)
I returned in the past 15 or 20 years ago with memories of my game boy pocket! Thank you!
Thanks heaps mate! :)
Oh my heart
Please, do the national park theme! :)
*****
You're not the first person to suggest it! It's a great track, I'll definitely need to get around to it, probably as a collab with a percussionist :)
@@Soundole Did you ever do it? Probably in my top 3 favourite Pokémon tunes
@@johnmartinez7440 Not yet! But it's definitely something I'm planning to do in the near future!
G/S had some great tunes. Very nice cover!
Couldn't agree more, thanks heaps!
Dude, how can this have only 2000 views?? It is awesome!!! You, sir, are a monster!
Thanks so much mate! I was pretty happy with it reaching 2k :)
If there was any justice left in this world this video should have at least 2 million... You are freaking awesome, dude!
*****
Aw, cheers man!
Absolutely beautiful :)
Thanks heaps mate! :)
Never thought to see you here, Qumu!
Man...this brings me back!
this is the most beautiful thing I could have listened to.
Thank you! That's a wonderful compliment :)
This actually sounds really beautiful. Made me real nostalgic.
Thanks so much mate! I love hearing peoples' nostalgic connections to these tracks :)
Man, as much as I love Red and Blue, there was something just so MAGICAL about Gold and Silver. A huge part of it was the score! Fantastic rendition as always, @Soundole VGM Covers!
Thanks so much! I admit, this theme has really grown on me, despite this not being one of the Pokemon generations that I played. I also like the subtle additions that Gold\Silver made to existing Red\Blue tracks!
All those 8 bit town themes are just sooo good and make me so nostalgic! :'D Good work man!!
Thanks so much mate! They are totally my jam :)
Hey, you did New Bark Town!!! My favorite game of all time ;w; It sounds wonderful, the little lyrical section in the middle part sounds gorgeous! Keep it up :)
Thanks so much! I'm glad you appreciated it :)
These are awesome man. I love the way that instrument brings out the true form of the original song
Thanks a lot! I've got a lot of respect for the original scoring, so I try to keep things pretty close to it :)
I have my silver and your music is tempting me to play it and listen to your music at the same time
Ah nice! I'll need to do more Gen 2 covers then so you've got more to listen to :)
Soundole VGM Covers that'll be great 😉
King of the town themes.
That is a crown I'll happily wear! :)
Was waiting for a new EWI vid. You are a moustached god with it.
:) You are too kind!
I still have my purple GameBoy Advance. Still works too. And I have my Pokémon Gold, Silver, Sapphire and Ruby in a drawer at my desk in Greece. There were no better times than playing Pokémon in the afternoons as a kid.
I skipped this generation, but I still have my original (working!) Game Boy Pocket, and Pokemon Red!
Soundole VGM Covers I bet those were the best! I never got to play the original 3 starter Pokémon and I’ve always wanted to. Maybe I’ll buy FireRed or Leafgreen!
Wow, I assumed 0:20 could only be made on a synthesiser or similar instrument. Amazing stuff!
Thanks very much mate! :)
Man, the EWI is such a cool instrument! Such a nice rendition of this track man. Super excited to hear more calming music from you. Well done :)
Thanks so much! I hope you enjoy the covers yet to come in the future!
Ooooooo those chills of nostalgia! Nice job :)
Thanks so much! Nostalgic chills are just what I was after :)
Always love me a good Pokemon cover. Really like how the higher notes sound on the EWI, some things can't be done with a keyboard!
Me too :) Yeah, that's one of the appeals of it, it's got a bigger range than pretty much everything. There's no way you could make that register sound sweet on acoustic winds!
I really liked that man, super chilled out!
Thanks heaps mate! I really enjoy making these sorts of tracks :)
Pure nostalgia
Dreamy. Nostalgic. Feelsey. Outstanding.
Just what I'm shooting for :D Thanks mate!
You really do justice to the original work. Keep it up!
Thank you very much! I will try :)
DAMN those high notes!
:D One of the perks of the EWI is that there's not the usual resistance on wind instruments as you go into upper registers - so that ultra high range can still sound easy to play :)
Soundole VGM Covers I thought that might be the case - my kind of wind instrument lol
What a tune. This is great.
Thanks very much, glad you liked it!
This feels like home 🏡
Omg god Pokemon gold and silver New Bar Town wow !!! Great job i love it !!
Thanks so much! :)
Keep coming back to this one. The EWI sounds great here.
Thanks heaps mate! I thought this would be a pretty good fit :)
Wow, this sounds amazing!! :D
Thanks mate! I'm glad you think so :)
No problem!!
Never seen that instrument before. Sounds cool.
Cheers mate! Always cool to introduce it to someone new :)
I love how simplistic but still complex 8bit soundtracks can be. Its like Bachs 2/3 part Inventions, only 2/3 melodys but those melodies are composed beautifully :D
Oh man, absolutely! There's so much cleverness in these compositions. Every transcription I make gives me more of an appreciation for them!
This is great!
May I request National Park next? I love the sound of that one!
Thanks! And yeah, that's absolutely gorgeous! I'd love to get around to it eventually (I promise this won't be the last time I touch this soundtrack)!
Soundole VGM Covers
Looking forward to it :)
What a lovely sounding version of one of my favourite themes from any video game. Well done!
Thanks so much mate! I'm finding so many people with an affectionate attachment to this track :)
Loved this
Thanks very much :)
Most beautiful rendition of New Bark Town ever, you absolutely nailed the bit from 00:20 onward. Most remixes spoil it by adding too much to it.
Thank you! I try not to add anything unnecessary to my transcriptions if the track already works on its own :)
Wow this was a great Cover. Sounds Like high Quality 8bit :p
Thank you very much! That's kind of the vibe I was going for :)
omg memories
Thanks! I'm so glad you appreciated it :)
I don't know why this sounds so right
Cheers mate!
Beautifully done! The melody sounds almost exactly as in the games, just with more details because of the manual performance. The accompaniment has just the right volume to be audible and carrying while not disturbing the melody. Very nice overall :)
Thanks so much! That's pretty much exactly what I'm shooting for. Most of the time, the originals are already wonderful compositionally, I just add a bit more musicality to phrasing, and occasionally rebalance things (especially an issue with NES tracks where the triangle wave is almost always too low in comparison to other voices, in my opinion).
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Very nice!!
Thanks heaps mate!
Dude that is awesome , of course liked, subbed, listening to other content ! Great Job Man ! I've a Game Boy Advance and all Pokémon from Gen 1 to 3 (remakes included) 5 meters away , you know what happens next ! Also it's useful that you have the ability to clone yourself so you can play songs lmao !
Thanks mate, I'm glad you liked it! I hope you enjoy the other stuff you find on my channel too :)
Very amazement! Much wow! Seriously though, this melts my god damn heart. Please keep up the impeccable work.
Thanks very much mate, I'm glad you liked it! :)
I must fucking say, you are amazing. I love you, I love your music, I love your instrument, and I love your mustache. you and your music has helped me through my depression. best of luck to you and your channel, I'll always be here for/with you.
Wow, thank you so much mate, that's probably the nicest comment I've ever received! I'm so glad you've been enjoying my work, and I really hope you'll enjoy the tracks I've got to come!
Np, I mean, you're the coolest UA-cam channel I've seen :)
IT'S awesome!!
Thanks! Glad you liked it! :)
Absolutely beautiful! Would love to hear Azalea or Littleroot on EWI!
Thank you! I'm sure I'll get around to them eventually! :)
Beautiful! Just yesterday I thought about playing gold/silver again. And you just gave me the answer :)
Thanks! I was playing it for the first time to capture gameplay footage for this, and was surprised how sucked in I got :)
I want an EWI just so I can play it for myself
Do it, I think it's a fun way to explore these soundtracks! :)
so soothing! Absolutely love this. Keep up the great work :)
Thanks so much! I'll do my best to :)
Awesome stuff man, please do hoenn versions!!
Thanks mate! There's plenty more from them that I want to cover :)
This is amazing. I usually don't like 8-bit songs performed on smooth instruments, since it loses the feel it was going for, but I think I found an exeption!
Thank you so much! I get what you mean, chiptune is an aesthetic all to itself, but I'm glad you think this works :)
I just went through your videos, it all sounds lovely! Keep at it!
Thanks! Will do :)
Do the National Park from Gold/Silver/Crystal :D
One day, for sure! It's definitely on my list :)
awesome :D
Thanks a lot :)
❤❤❤❤❤
You did again a really good job, thank you for this cover man. And, again, I love your t-shirt (Sans
Your English is fine :) Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it!
Mi juventud! Pokémon Crystal una de las mejores generación! Si no es que la mejor!
A propósito, como se llama el instrumento
(Forgive me if google translate isn't being helpful in responding to you)
Glad you liked it! It's an Akai EWI 4000s; basically a breath controlled synthesiser with fingering that most resembles a saxophone.
yeaaa Im gonna need you to make more of these videos. First thing monday morning sound good?
I'm on it boss!
G/S on the 3DS September 22!
Yes! I'm also really proud to be part of Johto Legends, a set of orchestral recordings of the 2nd generation soundtrack, happening very soon! Good time to be a Pokemon fan :)
Bene factum
Cheers mate!
the high notes truly sing on EWI! Is there a touch of vibrato on that highest note there?
Thanks mate! I'm putting vibrato on practically everything! I guess it's a stifled urge from classical clarinet playing? :)
nice mustache sir
Thank you! It's become part of my brand, I think :)
I prefer this to piano covers 👻
I'm glad! (good thing there's room on youtube for covers to everyone's tastes :p )
The title should say Gold/Silver/Crystal cause you know their is a pokemon crystal
Good point! The same could be said for my Red\Blue covers (with Yellow), I guess I just didn't want to make the title too long!
Soundole VGM Covers ok i get it
What's the name of this instrument plz?
Hey mate, it's an Akai EWI 4000s, a type of wind synthesizer. Loads more information about them can be found on youtube!
Soundole VGM Covers Thank you!
10/10 W intro
Cheers mate!
