- As the era of a new Nintendo console dawns upon us, I think it's time we looked back at a jazzy piece of music that we've all hummed along to at some point: the Nintendo Wii Mii Channel theme. Insaneintherainmusic's jazz cover / remix of the Mii Channel, featuring Berklee saxophonists Gabe Nekrutman (alto) & Chris Allison (bari).

I'm amazed at how many people seem to know the Mii Channel theme! Throughout the week, when friends of mine have asked which cover / remix I'll be doing this week, they've been able to hum or sing the Mii Channel theme back to me. It's really strange to me that the Mii Channel theme is this ubiquitous... but it's not so strange when you listen to it. It's catchy as heck! I really hope you enjoy the grooves I superimposed in this Mii Channel remix, and I hope you enjoy the saxophone solos! I brought in Gabe and Chris, who both did a great job with their parts.
If you were wondering... yes, some of the changes are from Chick Corea's "Spain". What a fantastic composition.

I'd like to see how History Unfolds from SoulCalibur 2 fares as jazz.
insaneintherainmusic This is Awesome!👍
this is sick
Carlton That too...
insaneintherainmusic Bomberman Hero - Redial
Also, dope jazz. Reminds me of the mall plaza from Mario Kart Wii xD
Some jazz band should play this in a restaurant and see how many people get it.
I'm gonna arrange this for a full jazz band pretty soon actually!
insaneintherainmusic please announce where to buy it when you do!!
insaneintherainmusic I you do... please make at least 1st trombone have the melody and a solo.... please!
insaneintherainmusic we need additional information
insaneintherainmusic I volunteer as trumpeter
Really Nintendo should make this the theme on the switch, to give a nice throwback for 10 years.
I'd be honored if they chose to do that!
insaneintherainmusic OMG you responded, I just found this channel and I'm loving it so far!
Thanks for finding me man, hope you stick around for future videos :)
insaneintherainmusic I will :)
don you mean YOU WII!!!...ill let myself out 0m0
When that sax kicked in a smile stretched from ear to ear holy moly
Same! I love this! It sounds so peaceful yet adventurous
you should probably see a doctor about that
Monkeys: We will use this tree to launch ourselves out of the cage
Also monkeys: *he ho peanut*
Definitely
SAME SAME SAME
This sounds like it was made for mario odyssey.
rradt2001 Ok so it’s not just me who thinks thag
It’s such an amazing piece of music it needs to be reused somewhere. Maybe an Easter egg in switch somewhere.
This is definitely New Donk City tier
Sounds more like SM3DW to me
Sounds a lot more like music from a Sam & Max game to me
The mii Chanel theme but it keeps getting jazzier
Every time he plays a note it gets jazzier
LOL where can I buy the Mii Chanel? Chanel upgrade
the mii channel but i make a cocc mii
Just a pretty puppy 1000th like from me
You mean jazzer eyy
I feel like this would be something that play in the elevator at Nintendo headquarters.

"please stay on the line while we find an available agent."
Or when you call Nintendo and this is the song they play while you hold
It pisses me off how good they are, their high school jazz sax section must've been killer.
Remember to give some love to the keyboardists out there!
Actually they're college students.
Brandon Phelon you’re looking at a group of college students lol, carlos is a dedicated lad to the music arts and he performs at a bunch of events and transcribes a huge amount of music into jazz. definitely recommend you watch more of his content.
I played high school band with him, they won multiple state and national competitions i believe. Was an absolutely killer section
Don’t let it piss you off. Be happy there are talented musicians making great music
ive been listening to this song on spotify for ages and wondered who had created it. its such a good song and i love it
Thanks for coming to the UA-cam version! :)
Haha same just discovered you ! I thought it was an official big band not just one guy 🤯
@@jonasrayet9369 Well, in this case three guys, but yes for the most part it's one guy
this feels like a meme but with huge amounts of effort.
maybe that's why a lot of people like it.

You barely saved me. Thanks for that mate
I did! But then someone referred to this one in the comments of another video, so I came back. And let me say, I'm very glad that I did :D
Ok so you might not believe this but I played this jazz rendition on my wedding reception, including your Simple and Clean and a bunch of your Undertale jazz covers. The music vendor is in awe with our "odd" selection of wedding song list, to the point they highlighted their take on this cover as a portfolio on their Instagram.

I played this at my pub trivia last night (for nintendo's 130th birthday) and had people begging me for the name of the "jazz piece". One guy thought it was Michael Brecker. They were shook when I told them it was the mii channel theme.
That’s so awesome, haha! Michael Brecker is my all time favorite saxophone player, so to be compared to him is so amazing, thank you for sharing my music :)
yeah this song is one of the many that transcends time
That's Spain in the middle of the song. So smooth. Great work!
Do you mean spanish music like flamenco or...?
op meant spain like the song by chick corea
@@hugzar9797
@@hugzar9797Spain by Chick Corea!
He did it. He actually fucking did it.
Daniel Peters I made a promise!
The absolute madman!
can you never say a cringey statement like ever again, of course he was going to fucking do it.
wait how was that cringey? mii shop seems kinda contrasting to the video game osts carlos usually makes so i can see where he's coming from
THANK YOU
I never knew the mii channel theme could be seductive
LMAOOO SAME
Chrisls LMFAOOO
Chrisls ROFLA
the profile pic fits the comment
Chrisls MORE* seductive
I love how this kind of turns into Spain halfway through.
I think what I like about this is that you turned this into a legitimate Jazz song, and didn't just play the same several notes over and over again. Well done dude!
THE FEELS OMG ITS ALL RUSHING BACK ALL THE HOURS SPENT TRYING TO MAKE MY MII LOOK PERFECT
But then it turns out obese and/or tiny anyway
Really? I spent hours on end trying to make mine the ugliest I could

@John L - ah, I see you're a man of culture as well.
It's been a while since I first heard this yet I just noticed you made the solo changes the same as Chick Corea's "Spain" and I love you even more for it
Luan Maziero just noticed this!!
Welcome, there’s enough jazz to think even a clarinet is capable of pulling this off solo (I tried and failed)
@@DaanDemmers. LES GO DD WHAS GOOD LMFAO
Anyone remember how on the 3DS' Streetpass song got more musical instruments as you got more friends. I miss that feature
"Yo, pass the aux cord."
"You better not play trash."
*this video starts playing*
ooh
useless channel #748,973,243 are you saying this cover is trash?
no, he is obeying his friend's request and playing high Quality music
james nielssen busts through the door
It's not trash though
this should be elevator music at the offical nintendo headquarters.
YES
YES
YES
Yesnt’nt
YES
I remember when I was looking up Wii memes, and stumbled upon this channel. By far one of my biggest examples of searching for copper, and striking gold. This has to be one of my favorite music channels of all time, and is pretty much the main reason I got into jazz. Thank you, and keep up the S tier work!
This song is so smooth that if played in a formal event, no one will even notice.
This needs to be the theme for the switch's shop
Pillbawks there will not be music on the switch... Because it emulates the feeling of Android...
Pillbawks so sad it doesn't have music
This is such a true comment
No, the Wii Shop Theme - Jazz Cover should be.

What if when we die, we go to Mii Plaza?
DatBoiCJ 16 does that mean Nintendo is god?
Since this is its music, I could seriously consider that as heaven, so... Could be.
Dude Wuhu Island would be Hell with Matt as Satan.
Matt is just a Persian super athlete that has beat out every competition in the afterlife
@El Joshi De Peluche Super Smash Bros, the 2012 Olympic Games, a Bowling Alley, a Tennis Court, An estranged white void where a bizarre pale golem teaches fitness, any of the mario kart tracks from mario kart 8, miitopia, animal crossing, basically everywhere the light touches is the Mii's kingdom
The Wii should get a patch where you could buy remixes to play in the background of the home menus and error screens as a waiting music
Nah, homebrew that does that for free. Also, error music: any SNES piracy message track, or some creepy theme
from 1:42 and troughout the solos until 2:55 I actually thought it was "spain" I was listening to and not the Mii channel theme XD. Great job dude!
omg it gets infinitely better as you keep watching it
dude I know. It should have been noticed by Nintendo.
Until it's end
is that john from unordinary
XD
Should be on the switch
They need to use this song for every elevator
Romi Zomi ^^
Romi Zomi I'll end up breaking the elevator because I would dance my ass off.
Romi Zomi *Every single one*
that'd be the most kickin elevator in existence
No one is allowed to be in that elevator( I'm not the only one here, Mystic Messenger music in a way sounds like elevator music too...right?)
RIP Chick Corea, excellent cover Carlos
RIP Legend.
I wish he could return forever.
I swore it went to the Spain changes... glad to know I wasn't imagining it. And RIP Chick. Lovely guy; incredible musician.
3:32 this part HITS different
it most definitely does!
*The perfect cover doesnt exi-*
No this is patrick yes
It does
Is this the Krusty Krab?
WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!
@Sideways cat God damn thanks for the transcription now I can finally play this
*claps of utter respect*
TheMBE2003 yes
At 4:37 I might’ve felt a tear streaming down my face. I love Koopa Beach with all my heart. Also, your music never fails to disappoint! That was such a great performance!
YES. I just rushed down to make this comment. I just thought: wait a minute, this isn't Mii Channel at all, but I know this! Koopa Beach is a perfect cameo here.
i came for the meme. I stay for the insane quality !
...this is better than the original.
Every one of his covers honestly
His covers are more like songs instead of themes. Where a theme is supposed to be looped, a song is not. While a theme is more nice in a videogame because it needs to be looped in a good game, a song is most often more nice to listen to while not playing the game.
I don't know if these are the proper definitions of a song and a theme, but you understand what I mean. :)
While I don't know if I would use that same terminology, I totally agree with what you're saying. My songs are meant to be played from start to finish, not looped!
insaneintherainmusic *tunes :)
But this one can also be looped. Maybe I'll loop it to play it on Project M.
This is one of those videos where you wonder why someone would dislike this
I think UA-cam freaks out if there are no dislikes at all. Still, less than 1% is pretty good, don'tcha think? ^_^
Actually it’s not that people dislike it it’s just that they are crying so hard with joy that they hit it mistakenly and don’t realize what they have done.
See, it’s these comments that make people dislike. It’s like a weird troll or something.
@@GS-hz4yv It could also be people who think any change to a song is bad, regardless of the change.
Maybe people who just dislike Carlos or people who just heard the beginning of the song and thought he was just playing the original song
I wanna go to a fancy restaurant and hear this playing and realize that all the people sitting around me, wearing semi-fancy clothes and eating game-themed food are gamers like me, just boppin out.
Yesss
Jazz boi 1 starts playing: :)
Jazz boi 2 joins: :D
Jazz boi 3 joins: :DD
Man, those sax harmonies are tight! Mii gusta!
Thanks man! It was fun writing them :)
Eric L. That pun 😂
juliettokki I'll admit, sometimes I try too hard to make puns. That was one of those moments 😂
You know you have talent when you make the Mii Channel theme sound jazzy.
Honestly it was pretty jazzy before... I didn't change that much ;)
MemeboundKidd 2.0 your profile picture goes with the comment so well tbh
I agree that this was jazzy before as a Trumpet player, but your rendition is just pure gold
I think he means jazzy as in the feeling. The original is so bland, and it must be hard to give a bland piece so much umph.
i love that this turns into spain, this meme has now transcended
Its amazing seeing carlos work with carlos again!
A few weeks ago one of the jazz bands at Purdue played this arrangement at one of our concerts and I nearly jumped out of my seat because I recognized it as yours! Great song!
Whoa, that's so cool!
Woah!
Cool
where’d you find the sheet for the arrangement
@@elizabethjin2759 played by ear probably
@@elizabethjin2759 the sheet music is in the description .-.
lmao didn't think you were actually gonna do this. Turned out really great though!
but of course!
Love love love the homage to Chick Corea's Spain! Can't believe how well it works.
Thank you for making this! Listening to your jazz cover made me reminisce the Wii days with my little brothers (we waited seven hours in line on a cold December night to buy one from Target the year it came out). The arrangement sizzles. I love the solos and I especially love the sax soli (clever video editing too). Thank you for making the MuseScore files available for us new fans who want to take appreciating your work to the next level!
AGH, THE MEMORIES, THEY'RE FLOODING BACK!!

+Luis Manuel Garcia Teran Yep! Alto and bari solos are over Spain changes :)
I would feel wrong not letting you in on the fact that the progression you speak of is Spain by Chick Corea
insaneintherainmusic thought I recognized that little run! Spain is on of my favorite jams!
I'm kicking myself knowing I did Spain for my college audition and I could've used the mii channel in the solo :p

OH MY GOD, IT IS!!! JESUS!!
I don’t know why I’m watching this so late at night in bed but I’m glad I did.

NYEHEHEHEHEH
This makes a good ring tone
but people always hang up before it's done. 😳
Ok, but the drummers on point. If it’s programmed, who ever did it needs a raise
I need to stop listening to this during video calls. When that sax kicked in, I physically pogged.
so dank yet majestic at the same time brings back memories
majestic memage!
Kirin 'the frozen shadow' Uchiha same 😂
I updated my Nintendo switch why do I not hear this when making a mii? Love this cover
I never even had a wii and yet I know this tune so well. It’s brilliant.
the anxiety has stopped existing and now im just simply vibing.
*YA LIKE JAZZ?*

same fam
>but my sax is black D:
What?
insaneintherainmusic this is black carlos
the satisfaction of people coming together
I think what makes a great cover is the ability to take someome else's work and breath your own life into it while honoring what it was. Bad covers either make it too different without showing due honor, or they simply try to do the same thing the creator did, and it comes off disingenuous. I say that to explain exactly what I mean when I say that this is up there in the greatest covers I've ever heard. You've taken an iconic song and elevated it to excellence while showing deep respect to the original playfulness of the song. You are extraordinarily talented, and I wish you the best.
can you please do the kahoot theme
omg yes!
Britni Rose yes please do the Kahoot theme lol

Jazz for the win
That transition to spain was so smooth
The melody so nice the musicians themselves smile 😂
It has been several years since I created a Mii character on Wii, and I finally got this melody out of my head.. Guess what melody is back in my head again. x)
The earworm comes back!
Im convinced this video is the center of youtube. Everytime I go on a youtube watching spree, it ends here.
I am glad UA-cam has turned this into a magnet.
It's so good that it has its own gravitational pull that you eventually find yourself drawn to.
I'm here cause of the runawayguys and there Mario party LP. Gotta say I'm.impressed
Rip the Wii and Wii U era! You will be missed, but at least we have an amazing jazz cover to remember you by!
FireSilgo there wasn't much of a Wii U era unfortunately 😂
Anthony Diecidue Sadly yes, but still some amazing games! Rip 😢
FireSilgo This was more of a normal Wii theme, but still, R.I.P. Wii and Wii U! ;-;
Miis still are on the switch so let's hope this theme returns
FireSilgo are you fucking kidding me Wii U is RIP'd too? I haven't gotten around to saving up enough money to buy it yet wtf
Once the saxophone kicks in 10/10
Thanks :D
This is by far without a single shadow of a doubt, the best version of the Mii channel theme I've ever heard
That solo...That's the most beautiful tritone I've ever heard.
Getting real nice "Spain" vibes here
yep, used the spain changes for solos!
GOD IM SO GLAD YOU SAID THIS! I played "Spain" my senior year and loved it!
I was thinking that the whole time and looked down in the comments to see if anyone felt the same!!! :D
DUDE WOAH THATS SO TRUE... I didn't even notice but now that you mention it. Damn I love that song
Wow, I'm so glad so many felt the same! Warms my heart ❤️
