Lavaridge Town is a quaint place of respite for the player after defeating Team Magma atop Mt. Chimney. The hot springs there would probably be a nice place to rest, especially since your butt must be hurting after hopping around on your Acro Bike.

Pokemon RSE will always be very close to my heart, and its music will be even closer to my heart. Inside my heart? I don't know. But anyway, this was one of the tunes that didn't initially make the cut for my album back to Your Littleroots that I made in September 2014, and I thought it was about time to cover another tune from this wonderful game. When I was picking a song, I wanted something that would sound very warm and comfy, sort of like how my Animal Crossing title theme ended up being. I somehow ended up on the topic of the Lavaridge Town hot springs, and bam here's your jazz.
There are a couple of bits in here that are heavily inspired by Thing of Gold by Snarky Puppy, which has a really unique mellow latin groove. To get this latin effect, I added a triangle (mounted onto a tripod with a rubber band lol) and some bongos! I also tried out the same moog synth that I used in Animal Crossing, but it didn't sound like I wanted it to in context.
So yeah, there's your Lavaridge / Oldale Town cover! Catch the reference to another song in this cover, and you'll get special points from me. Also, don't forget to download the free MP3 in the desrciption and perhaps follow me on Twitter / Facebook!
Now back to playing Undertale.
EDIT: A POKEMON NIPPED MY BACKSIDE!
+Duncan Taylor Take me to dinner first.
+insaneintherainmusic How about a lava cookie and then we can hatch eggs if you know what I mean ;)
+Duncan Taylor I've got a spot in my party for you, bb ;)
+Duncan Taylor Wynaut amiright? ^^
+insaneintherainmusic Is that a Mega Man 2 opening reference at 4:18?
EDIT: or is it a reference to Pollyanna's theme from Mother?
This is what I needed today. Now I'm extremely happy :)
+Truegreen7 Yay! :)
hi truegreen
My wife made it a point to tell me that "That sounds really pretty" while I was listening to this. So in other words you won the internet today my friend! Great stuff as always I love all of the tracks from Ruby :)
+Nelson Coy (guitarded222) Tell her I said thanks! That means a lot :)
POLLY ANNA TAKE ME NOW.
+SwigglesRP :3
Pokemon Emerald was my first Pokemon game back on GBA and getting to this point after scaling the mountain and taking down Team Aqua/Magma was a big achievement for little me as a child. It was very relaxing to sit in the spring and listen to this music. Great job. I like that little Mudkip hiding in the background.
+Steven Higgins Diddy Kong does enjoy riding atop Mudkip ;)
This is amazing
+Haedox Not as amazing as what you're going to hear next week. Nyeh heh heh.
insaneintherainmusic HOLY FUCK I LOVE YOU
+insaneintherainmusic You DIDN'T. NO. WE ARE NOT READY FOR IT.
You still comment?
+BryanTheSir I'm just really not feelin up to it right now. Sorry.
im utterly blown away by your skills..... there are no words
high levels of skill with a number of instruments, recording, syncing, editing plus the video work as well and syncing that
we need to get off the lets plays and cat videos and start looking at the REAL!!!! talent that youtube has to offer
+Andrew Howe Dude, thanks so much. Not everyone realizes just how much work goes into this. Thanks for recognizing it :)
I owned the year four album on my old iPod, and the thing just gave out on me, so here I am again listening :)
I can't believe I waited over two weeks to check out this cover. Honestly, I think it's the best one you've done yet.
+picleus Wow, that's a great thing to hear :)
Back to "Back to Our Littleroots"! I love it! :D
+SnivySomnia Back to Back to Your Littleroots! If this was a Thursday it'd be a Throwback Back to Back to Your Litleroots Thursday.
All the effort you put into making these videos is without a doubt showing up in the great quality of your work! Keep being the cool dude that you are! :D
+Ruth Kim Wow, thanks so much :) I always like it when people appreciate all the effort that goes into making these videos!
Reminds me of your wonderful "Back to your Littleroots"-Album.
Very, very nice!
+Twilight Windwaker This track would fit very nicely in there!
Exactly.
This music just goes straight to my heart. Congrats!
Hey, just noticed your videos have gotten a whole lot better visually. Great work with the music as always.
well done as always Carlos. I like that you're adding more percussion to your repertoire of playing skills. Really brings the music to life.
Triangle skillz 10/10!!! Great arrangement as always and fantastic playing! This cover made me really think of sipping tea and enjoying the cool autumn weather. Really great stuff, dude!
+TheMaximumGuitarist Triangle is very slightly difficult if you dont have a good sense of time.
That solo hit me right in the soul. Thanks!
+RawkHawkRockin So it was a ... soulo?
THE POLLYANNA, MAN. THAT MELTED MY HEART. (if it already wasn't melted by the rest of the song) :)
+Apollix The power of a small Easter egg hidden in a complex jazz arrangement ;)
Gettin' all them live instruments in!! I love it. BLUE mics man, I want one. xD
+Joshua Taipale Blue mics are great. They're not exactly industry standards, but they've got good bang for their buck.
Joshua did you end up getting one?
Amazing work as always! I still listen to the Hoenn album all the time! Wouldn't mind hearing more jazz covers from those games. :3
+Marek Mettälä I'm sure more will come in the future. Up until I cover the entire OST. Then I'll move on to the sound effects. ;)
only 5k views? what!?! dude. you are so talented I hope one day you'll get the recognition you deserve
Oracle
Let me just say, you nailed this song!.. It's amazing! The whole song is just amazing and you played so well! when you play the Sax right after the 03:00 minute mark it just sounds so sexy.. really amazing!
+MP Nielsen you mean... saxy? ;)
Masterful once again.
+Matt Dunn Thanks, man!
+insaneintherainmusic sure thing! keep up the nice work :)
impressive as always! Brings back memories :)
+WarpsWill Of course! :)
Wonderful, wonderful job :)
+HoopsandHipHop Good to see you here! Thanks for enjoying :)
Fantastic!!
I want to listen to the jazz cover of Jubilife City!!
+poke1227 IT'S COMING SOMEDAY!
+insaneintherainmusic Thank you!!
Love all of your Pokemon jazz covers bro. I'd be quite excited if you were able to do like a bossa nova jazz cover of Lacunosa Town, that'd be amazing.
You definitely earn my sub :D
+Donny D Thanks for subbing man. I'd love to do more Pokemon covers in the near future! Unfortunately, Nintendo's copyright policies and recent issues with other Pokemon UA-camrs getting copyright strikes have made it dangerous to cover Pokemon music, to some extent. I'd like to wait for a while before returning to Pokemon.
When I listen to this a smile forms
One of my favorites! :'D Thanks for that one, dude!
+gabocarina96 No problem man, your Mayahem Temple was awesome too :D
Thanks dude! ^^
Just discovered this Channel, love your work :)
4:15 oh OHHHH I HEAR IT
More music from Gen 3 pleasssse :D Love gen 3
Great cover as always :)
+oisinholz Thanks :D
The drum debut tho. Love the blend, it's not a 100% Latin'y feeling cover the whole way but it embodies all them vibes. Fits perfect with Littleroots vibe :)
+SwigglesRP Yeah, it's got the latin flavor but it's not all out Latin. It's a dead language, anyway.
E plurubis REKT
Awwww I love your Pokémon stuffies
No fucking way xDDD
I was actually playing Ruby when you released it !!!
Good job dude xD
+MrFailess C: YOU SHOULD BE PLAYING UNDERTALE
+insaneintherainmusic I'm playing it right now ^^
awesome cover,you play it all!
+luisafonsoandre Haha, thanks!
Wow, you managed to take the creepiest theme in pokemon and remove the creep factor, while still making it sound good, I'm impressed!
+gaurdianAQ ...are you sure you're not talking about Lavender Town? hehe
+insaneintherainmusic wow... *facepalm yes I was, totally misread that and apparently was hearing what I wanted to hear apparently
+gaurdianAQ just go's to show how tired I am apparently, I should get to bed XD
Regardless, excellent cover
+insaneintherainmusic I just realized where I got confused, I saw in your channel page you had a lavender town cover, but didn't click on it right away, then I mus have clicked this in the side bar thinking it was still lavender town
+gaurdianAQ I guess both start with "lav"~!
I heard that dang Pollyanna in there you sneaky boi
Very very nice!
Your jazz cover are always perfect, especially the pokemon ones are amazing. Don't know, they have this special mood... I got Back to your Littleroots and It's so relaxing, I always use It when I have to work. In this you surpass yourself! I mean I'm not a musician and I don't know how to make music, but wow just putting all these instruments together... amazing really!
As I said in another comment, I expect more Chrono related covers :D Well even a FFIX won't be bad... and do you know a game called Skies of Arcadia? It's not so famous, so It would be amazing to see a jazz cover...!^^
+SuperMisurino I've heard the name Skies of Arcadia before, but never really checked it out! If there's a specific song you'd like me to check out, then fill out my request form in the video description so I can keep track of them :)
+insaneintherainmusic Thank you for answering my comment! Skies of Arcadia is underrated masterpiece of japanese RPG, the music is pretty good and catchy in my opinion :D I will fill the request form as soon as possible, thanks! ^^
That's one nice looking sax you have there.
+Sam Owens Once you go black, you never go back ;)
Aaaahhhh this game...
Freaking awesome man! Keep it up! :D :D :D
+Nitsuj Yeliab You got it!
I'm here because of the triangle.
Really nice cover! (Also, 1,000th like)
yes
Amazing job as always! I have been a subscriber for about 2 years now and I would love if you can a cover of "Never More" from Persona 4! Keep up the awesome work! :D
+Brock T Thanks for sticking around! You might want to add that to my requests list in the description :)
Love that groovy triangle playing! Gave the cover a really nice feel. Oh and how many special points do I get for guessing the reference at 4:17? ;)
+MinishMelodies You get all the special points! What are they used for? Absolutely nothing!
I wouldn't mind if a Pokemon nipped my backside while listening to this.
+Jazztronaut ;^)
have you ever tried a metal mouthpiece? it makes a huge difference in tone and I can tell from experience, it helps in the jazz aspect of songs especially in the solo sections. but its like, if you don't use one cause you don't have the money that's understandable lol
+Tyler Reese I've tried metal mouthpieces before. The ones that I've tried haven't given me enough warmth that I like, but that might just because I haven't really tried out any good ones. I am currently saving up and shopping around for a new mouthpiece though, so I'll keep your suggestion in mind!
I can't put this any other way. You need more subs.
+Cactusman2000 You can help by sharing my videos around :) I'll keep pumping out the good stuff for people to enjoy!
Very well done! You may want to adjust your triangle playing, however. The general practice with triangles is to hit in the bottom curved corner rather than the center or the open corner. This playing spot will give off a better tone from the triangle. String may also be more appropriate than a rubber band so that the triangle will not bounce.
Oh I am well aware that my triangle technique is terrible ;)
+insaneintherainmusic Understandable considering that most percussionists don't even play the instrument correctly!
Dat triangule!
I just absolutely love your RSE arrangements. Do you have any plans to do the Magma/Aqua Leader?
+Ryan Murray Not at the moment, but I never say never!
You should do a big band version of the shop theme from Emerald/Ruby/Sapphire. I think it could sound pretty cool, or you could do a cover of the Star Light Zone from Sonic the Hedgehog. Just some ideas, keep it smooth my friend.
+Desmond Hargrave (The Chord Guy) If only I had a full big band to work with, the things I could do...
Great job man. What you every considering Mt Pyre or route 113 from RSE? It would make me cry of nostalgia
+YeshMC I've done Route 113 on my Back to Your Littleroots album :) There's a link to the album playlist on UA-cam at the end of this video.
insaneintherainmusic Oh aha sorry then, I'll check it out :D
You have a Mudkip doll! :D
+Max Waterson Yes! It sits atop my monitors :)
Where did you bought your mouthpiece?...
Sounds Amazing!!
gr8 job m8. would like some more sinnoh tracks m8
2 much 8
Pokemon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+jyggy _ Somehow you spelled that right!
That Mudkip is so cute tho
I know! :D I might get more someday, my monitors get cold.
I heard that bit of the Mother Series you hid in there ;)
+Jordan Richards It's a musical meme :^)
Dude I've been playing the saxophone for about 3 years now and I was wondering is it worth it to buy a professional horn.I mean you sound amazing on yours of course it's not just the horn that matters
+InsaneInTheMembraneMusic I recommend getting a solid mouthpiece and reed setup first before investing in a horn! It costs a lot less and it'll affect your sound a lot more :)
thanks
I heard that lil' Pollyana bit in there! Why not do the whole thing?
+Matt B Someday!
4:18 was that "todokete zetsu na san ni wa" from Snow Halation, you sneaky memer?
That was not, haha!
Fantastic arrangement, as always. however, as a percussion major I have to comment on your appalling triangle technique. maybe with a few years practice
you'll make some progress with the instrument ;)
Darn, just when I thought I was getting good!
Time to break out the ol' copy of Pokemon Emerald and the Gameboy Advance again.
+Vehin I prefer playing it in the GBA slot of my "phat" DS
Could you reupload the mp3? it seems to have been taken down
I can't legally offer free mp3 downloads of my stuff on youtube anymore, sorry :/
Maybe you could send a link to a soundcloud that you make? youtube should be fine with that, then upload the songs there and offer free download on soundcloud?
Dude you need to be a professional triangle player
+Duvangrgata - Weekly Videos naaaah
on the side, of course. ;)
Was that supposed to be Simple and Clean at the end?
I don't think so!
oh, lol, but it does sound like it right? I ain't crazy, right? RIGHT?
In all seriousness, I'm so happy you replied. Been really enjoying your music. Keep it up!
could you do a jazz cover of: Xenogears Soundtrack - The Valley Where Wind Is Born
+RosenBosen Add it to my request document in the description :)
+insaneintherainmusic ok :)
4:17 Twoson reference?
Never mind I think it's Pollyanna
Also, is it just me, or does it also sound like a part of the Mega Man 2 intro?
U are the best :p
Thanks for listening to this cover :3
insaneintherainmusic :3
So do you think you will do any music from undertale?
+asup | snart Tuesday.
+insaneintherainmusic oh baby
I didn't even realize they had the same music. I guess you learn something new every day (whether how pointless the info is or not...).
4:50 coincidence or Undertale?
Why don't you ever show you playing the drums. You show everything else.
Because I don't play my drums live :p the bongo part in this song was simple enough to show in a video clip; my drum parts are all programmed via MIDI!
Oh. That answers that. Thanks for replying back!
2/10
Not enough trumpets.
+mysuperyoshibros same tbh
+insaneintherainmusic In all seriousness though, this is an amazing cover, all the music I've seen of yours so far is fantastic, keep up the great work!
Also I appreciate the Mudkip in the corner of all your videos.
