When Doctor Who arrived on French television in 2011 I immediately fell in love with the show. Around 2011-2013 I was in a crazy fanboy phase, watching and reading everything I could about DW (even though I didn't understand English very well 😅), buying a DW t-shirt to show off in middle school,... listening to soundtracks... and remixes of soundtracks. During this time I listened to this version particularly. A lot. And today I found this video on an old TH-cam Playlist I made. It remind me of that time, when I became a crazy whovian! I think I'm less crazy now, but definitely more whovian. Love this show, love this music. 🔁🔊🎶🎶🔁🔁🔁
it's funny, the drums were the one thing I contemplated for hours. Maybe 6 hours of just thinking, looping, remixing. I'm pretty happy how they turned out, but I knew some wouldn't like it. But I think they're perfect. But that's me.
OMFG, I can't bring to words how awesome this is! Doctor Who has to be my fav series ever, and this is simply OMFG... You wouldn't believe how hyped I am. Awesome work as always!
oh wow no one has commented on this in a year. Haha im here because my orchestra is playing the Doctor Who theme and i thought the backing track sounded amazing so i looked it up on youtube
*dies* Uhm...This is just completely amazing. I was linked to this video from a friend and I can tell you now that I'm definitely subscribing. Your work is phenomenal. I've listened to many of your pieces and have been greatly impressed by them. Most are, in my humble opinion, better than the originals. Thank you for creating wonderful works like this for us to enjoy. I will definitely make sure to tell my friends about this...
Walt Ribeiro I was wondering weather I could use this truly wonderful remix of the doctor who theme for my upcoming audio series, all credit will go to you off course!
I love this to the ends of the universe!! Perfect job man!! :D Do you take requests/suggestions? I would love to see some Oingo Boingo. Perhaps Weird Science? But do whatever you're more comfortable with.
AEOHFRIUFHRWEIOURHWEIURHR That is the sound my head makes when it hits the keyboard because I've damn near fainted. You keep making amazing For Orchestras, and they astound me every single time. Awesome work!
You guys are AMAZING - have you ever considered doing any Legend of Zelda music or possible a medley? With you guys doing it, it would be EXTRAORDINARY.
This is probably the best orchestral Doctor Who theme remix I've ever heard; certainly better than anything Murray Gold has put out in recent years. The only thing that, in my opinion, could have made this better is if the bassline and melody synth were present. Other than that... I love it; you've made a Whovian very, very happy.
who cares about views. those 262 people are the coolest. we're a small, tight, awesome, and unknown community here on the corner of the internet. you are loved here! and there's nothing else I could ask for.
This is absolutely fantastic! Any chance you might do something... Firefly-ish? And of course I request the Ballad of Serenity! The Browncoats could swarm it, I'm sure!
I can't speak for the OP, but one key difference I hear in this arrangement verses the original is the melody is played much more staccato. In the original piece the theremin-like instrument playing the melody is played for very long durations, often bending between notes rather than moving between discreet tones. It gives the original piece an ethereal feeling that this arrangement lacks. If you stick to acoustic instruments, you might be able to reproduce the effect with a flute.
This piece of music is for the true Whovian inside us. ALLONS-Y!!!
glad you enjoy my music!

It got the signature baseline wrong at the beginning. The pitch goes DOWN at the end of the first measure instead of going UP like the original theme.

Sir you are a God of composition, I look forward to anything and everything you make from now on. Keep up the amazing work
This song is too awesome to listen just once!
marching band is amazing. my friend Jon is a composer for that medium and I've grown to really enjoy that ensemble.
my albums are on bandcamp at the moment. thanks for the kind words man. welcome aboard!
Doctor Who + Walt Ribeiro = TOTAL AWESOMENESS!!!
it's funny, the drums were the one thing I contemplated for hours. Maybe 6 hours of just thinking, looping, remixing. I'm pretty happy how they turned out, but I knew some wouldn't like it. But I think they're perfect. But that's me.
you must be so proud that you can arrange and play such great music! well done! you are a true role model
OMFG, I can't bring to words how awesome this is! Doctor Who has to be my fav series ever, and this is simply OMFG... You wouldn't believe how hyped I am. Awesome work as always!

THANK YOU.
Simply phenomenal.
OMFG THE TRUMPETS JUST GAVE ME GOOSEBUMPS!!!!!!
I'm a huge fan of percussion. I threw the bells in this week's piece, I think you'll approve. It should be out in a few days.
oh wow no one has commented on this in a year. Haha im here because my orchestra is playing the Doctor Who theme and i thought the backing track sounded amazing so i looked it up on youtube

TerranRich - I'm not legally responsible for any concussions. But I would have loved to have heard your head make that sound.
i've already arranged Final Fantasy - have you heard?
Absolutely incredible. I've tweeted/facebooked your work. Subscribed. You have a talent my friend, an incredible talent. Make an album.
This is one of my favorites!
It costs upfront money for the licenses. Believe me, I'd do it in a heartbeat.
that's a very cool way of looking at it.
i've done only some of the awesome ones. I plan on doing many many more.
i'm trying my best for you guys!
based on your username, I take it you REALLY liked this one.
thanks jesse! more to come for you.
i'm just getting started. prepare for glory.

EX-PLAIN!
Oh Crap! A Dalek
I think "he" goes by a different name now.
evilfuzzybunny100 something like missy
Brilliant
+The Doctor Or you could say, Fantastic!
The only way to make Doctor Who geekier (and more awesome!)? Orchestral arrangement.
lembro quando eu baixei essa música e ouvia todo dia
This is pretty great! I'm getting a Muse vibe from this.
This song brings me tears of happiness. Great job
i was too. i have so many coming up
Brilliant, Just Brilliant.
Walt Ribeiro, as a Whovian and "Music Enthusiast"
I thank you for this great composition.
You were 10 years early with this comment
If have literally spent the last hour listening to your music... Am I allowed to 'favourite' your whole channel?
ALL THE FEELS!
15 people who disliked are daleks!
How much I wish I could listen to this live!!!
you know what? that actually would be pretty epic, and I have a few ideas for it.

Fantastic!
As the Doctor would have said, this is Fantastic and Brilliant!
I must have listened to this for at least an hour!
Simply amazing! Keep up the great work!
This is the definition of eargasm.
well played, i missed that opportunity.
Also, this should definitely be the theme for the 13th doctor. Perfect is the best word for it.
BEST VERSION ON THE WEB THEY WOULD NEED TO USE THIS AS OFFICIAL THEME OR ATLEAST FOR THEATRE VERSION
hand down my favorite version of this theme if they ever decide to make the film franchise you should score it
Fantastic... Just fantastic!!
I absolutely love this :) You are a fabulous composer.
I love this!! It's true that it is not completely acurate but it's still really good :)

That is the sound my head makes when it hits the keyboard because I've damn near fainted. You keep making amazing For Orchestras, and they astound me every single time. Awesome work!
Fantastic!! :D
lots of people told me that. lost opportunity on my part.
Simpsons is already orchestrated. I've never heard the Goosebumps song. Didn't even know they had one.
You guys are AMAZING - have you ever considered doing any Legend of Zelda music or possible a medley? With you guys doing it, it would be EXTRAORDINARY.
Please stop! You're killing me with your awesome!
Can't wait for the next season, and this makes me even more anxious =P
This is the best doctor who theme ever
I think the Who theme song is an amazing piece of music as it is,but you just managed to make it better
You sir are my fav composer on YT :D
As Nine would say, FANTASTIC!
Ahh Epic!!! I want to be in this orchestra, playing clarinet! If only I was in an orchestra, but I'm only in a concert/marching band
I bought this and call me maybe yesterday and love them both :) ~Tardis
wow, awesome job. every song is better when played by dozens of people at once.
BRILLIANT!
This is probably the best orchestral Doctor Who theme remix I've ever heard; certainly better than anything Murray Gold has put out in recent years.

listening to this in 2022, this takes me back to better times :D
comes out today!
I just saw the first episode on Netflix..absolutely amazing....
who cares about views. those 262 people are the coolest. we're a small, tight, awesome, and unknown community here on the corner of the internet. you are loved here! and there's nothing else I could ask for.
Awesome orchestra performance. Bravo!!🎉🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊
prepare to die - with more orchestra music this week!
amazing
I would gladly regenerate to this :D FANTASTIC!
This is absolutely fantastic! Any chance you might do something... Firefly-ish? And of course I request the Ballad of Serenity! The Browncoats could swarm it, I'm sure!
i feel loved!
maybe just make this one your new ringtone? :P
Imagine if he did get a full orchestra... Minds would be blown!
Im buying this on itunes! amazing
Marvelously Beautiful!

i'm so confused by your question.
