Brainiac Maniac • Plants Vs. Zombies [ Remix ]

- Hiya! This has been my most requested remix in months. Sorry it has taken so long, I've been working on it for around four months, now. I wanted to make sure it had the best quality possible before bringing it to you guys, and it was quite the tricky one to cover!
❖ What The Heck Is This ❖
This track plays during the final boss battle, against Dr. Zomboss. It's the only level set during the night and on the roof, making it extra unique. It's a fast-paced theme, when compared to the rest of the game's soundtrack (except for Loonboon, which is the fastest-paced) and perfectly fits the final boss situation.
My intention with this remix was to bring back some of that sweet bass I used in Watery Graves, but on steroids. I focused a LOT on the basslines, making them satisfying, clean and super energetic. As such, I used bass techniques from multiple genres: classical jazz, blues, rock'n'roll, pop and others. IT NOW SOUNDS NOTHING LIKE RUDE BUSTER GUYS! The rest of the track was built around all these basslines; some original instruments were replaced by new samples which made more sense with the remix, others were kept.
As always, with PvZ remixes, I inserted some game sound-effects into the track. This time, though, I tried to make them fit the beat and created a bit of a rhythm with them. This can be seen with the Robot Hydraulics sound, throughout the track, but, mostly, with the bucket-head hit sound, which creates the percussion line twice in the remix. All other SFX were, as per usual, mixed to fit the rhythm and tempo of the remix.
I've got two favorite parts on this track, back to back! Firstly, 2:24. This part has a bassline I've used a LOT in my remixes; Driftveil City and Azalea Town, for example. This time, I used it for a variation of a classic Brainiac Maniac section. The biggest change comes from the bassline, and it's that G7 chord in the middle of the cadence. It's just so perfect with the melody. My second favorite part comes right after, being the chorus variation. The chord progression and general rhythm is heavily inspired by the chorus of "Charm", by Moe Shop, my favorite song of theirs. It added so much to the track and I was very pleased when I realized the original melody fit with the chord progression.
As always, I hope you enjoy the track!

I love the integration of the in-game sfx, adds so much atmosphere to an already outstanding remix
Thank you so much, I'm glad that little addition makes a difference!
@@seiinity Of course it did! That's why you're part of my 4 Soldiers of Radical Music, along with Nick Nitro, Mick Gordon, and Andrew Hulshult!
I can't take you seriously with that pfp

Man, the use of ingame sounds is phenomenal. Using the ice shroom and jalapeno noise to change the music was perfect.
Thank you! I'm glad you liked those little details. :)
@@seiinity definitely to be there
The zombony startup was a nice touch too
@@seiinity and the zombie noises was really epic
the PVZ soundtrack isnt the same without the ingame sound effects coming up at the perfect timing.
References to the unused Zombotany theme (a scrapped zomboss theme), atmospheric sound effects, and a whole section where the percussion is just projectiles hitting metal things? WHAT MORE CAN U ASK FROM A REMIX?!
Ahah, glad you enjoyed all the details, cheers!
nothing that wouldn't hurt the song in someone else's eyes
@@seiinity ES NO TENGO MUCHAS MI AMIGA
Now THIS slaps on a whole nother plane of existence
Thank you so much!
More like a whole nother zombot of existence

What The Hay?
The “where are my lawnmowers?” theme
Filhote De Florgote / Blossom Blast *good question*
You mean the "Dang, this boss is easy but its music is catchy (good thing it lasts a while) theme?"
@@SirWigglebott0m Oh, the engines in them were being used for sunflower's speakers since all the plants that don't show up on the conveyer believe in you enough to think you'll win easily, which you do.
@@professorantasma6591 .....you might be right
Ah yes, lawnmower on the roof. Makes sense.
I like how almost every other remix of brainac maniac aims to be intense and epic, while this one is just funky
Among what everyone else has liked, I find the victory theme to be a great way to end this awesome soundtrack, superb.
Glad you noticed! Thanks.
@@seiinity dr ZOMBOSS is the boss of zombie hordes.

What a good remix yeah!
I loved
Thank you very much!
Hey sombrío, veo tus vídeos, que bueno encontrarte aquí, se te aprecia,

If PVZ was a anime, this would definitely be the intro
Oh, boyy.
CRAZY DAVE, NOOOOOO!!
That’s a long intro

This remix is on another level!
The Sound Effects used as an instrument is genius. The Buckethead "metallic bang" sound and the Zombot Steps as drop especially, I wasn't expecting it.
Exceptional, without a doubt my favorite version of Brainiac Maniac.
I listen to this every time I go hiking. The beat is just phenomenal and it helps motivate me to get to the next hill and push on. Tiring, yes, but after two months I have managed to sync my footsteps to the beat. A banger as always.
Yo, that's awesome!
Everybody gangsta until they see a zombie with a giant robot
Melons attack!!
Van attack!!
I love your remixes on this series, it’s jazzy and very well integrated with the original songs. Very nice work!
Thank you very much!
the joke is the final boss has a brain
wait wrong channel
XD
SilvaGunner much?
@@pirategamer6630 a lot
Did you record the bass for this cause it slaps ... a lot
The bass is not live-recorded, it's composed in the software!
@@seiinity E
When PVZ tries to sound like Golden Wind and can't get the notes right but it still sounds amazing anyways.
I must say I didn't quite get the reference, but thanks!
@@seiinity Golden Wind is the fifth arc from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, it was a reference to Giorno Giovanna's theme from the anime because the background notes (1:52) almost sounded like the piano solo (th-cam.com/video/tLyRpGKWXRs/w-d-xo.html) from the theme.
@@guardjelly3946 Ahh, gotcha!
except the anime adaptation of golden wind didn’t come out until 2019, and pvz came out in 2009

I’ve listened to many other remixes of songs like this, but never had I heard any of them use sound effects from the game in a way that both adds to the remix, making it unique and without overdoing it. Can’t wait to hear more from you!
I’m gonna miss that old logo on the left
but danggg this is so amazing :00
Okay edit: this is tied with rigor mormist for my favorite, outstanding job! I love the in game sounds like the bucket being hit or the zomboni starting up!
The new logo is more personal and recognizable. :) Thanks!
Seii I’ll get used to it quick no doubt, and I appreciate how you respond to your fans!
Seii oh I had a question I forgot to ask, are you planning to do pvz 2 themes?
@@unaverageavocado159 Not sure!
@@seiinity i love burgers
4:39 Yikes, those bucketheads are taking a beatdown.
Could also be Dr. Zomboss' robot!
@@seiinity yikes

Those bucketheads disagreed with someone on twitter
They are reasons bucket head zombies have buckets

The only song that is hot and cool at the same time, amazing remix
Thank you!
Well zombies does shoot fire and ice balls
Carnivora
This actually sounds cool.
Thank you!
Oh hot damn! I did NOT expect that funky bass!!
I would rate this a 15/10 cuz this music is so good!
Nah, 18/2
50/1
This sounds like something that would be in persona.
No when school is out and summer is out
Omg I have listened to so many versions of this soundtrack remix before but this one is surely so epic. Nice job :)
Thank you so much!
Ooooh baby that's some delicious soundwaves.
Mmm, thank you!
@@seiinity I've F o r g o t
I wanna see either a remix of Cerebrawl, Zombies on Your Lawn, or the intro/Crazy Dave theme song
Some of them might come eventually!
not to advertise or anything, but I did make a cerebrawl remix if you aren't too picky lol
Grasswalk remix when?
I'll be sure to give it a listen
@@seiinity plz do a remix of Watery Graves
Thx for doing my request
-the purple dude in 2019
No problem!
@@seiinity Dr ZOMBOSS is wabby Wabbo
I loved how you used the sound effect when you hit a zombie with a bucket (i don't remember his name in english) is just amazing (sorry for bad english)
He’s simply called the buckethead zombie
I love this game when i was 7. Now i am 18 and still LOVE it.
I guarantee you if you play this in a club, probably half the dance floor will people just jamming to it
late to the party, great job nonetheless
Thank you so much!
I can't belive it's been 6 years of my first time playing plants vs zombies it is a game which people can't forget and this remix is awesome literally the zomboni car engine starting to the imp sound awesome keep it up man ❤❤❤
is really amazing, it´s my favorite song of PvZ.
You´re really cool
Thank you so much!
I always love your pvz remixes they're the best!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for making them!
Amazingly and beautifully like always!
Thanks!
this remix is so chilling yet brings back the memories, which makes me panic at the same time. this is really a perfection, i'll probably listen this and the other pvz remixes you did for hours now
one of the best remixes I've heard of plants vs zombies :)
Thank you!
@@seiinity :3
AAAAAAAgain, using unconventional things in your music is such a wonderful move!! Also this is just such a good bop in general. B)
I still find myself coming back to this remix after 3 years. I’ll never get tired of the sound effect use here. As well as the really awesome drop at 2:40. You really captures the essence of an epic bossfight with this one. Incredible work. 👍
This is easily one of the best remixes I have ever heard, great job
Thank you so much!
Omg I love this with my entire soul. BLESS YOU!
Thank you!
Adding in-game sound effects to a video game's remix of a song is the best move. It helps it stay true to the origins of the music, in my opinion. The ending was my favorite, when you collect the trophy for beating him. It transitioned so smoothly at the end
This is amazing im in love with all your pvz remixes!!
Thanks!
I love the atmosphere,sounds,in game noises I can see that you put time into it.all and all best song for pvz I love it
Rightttt
yo
Thank you!
Who needs sleep when you can listen to remixes you've listened to a thousand times because it's so good
Undoubtedly the best track in the entire game, and... pardon my American accent, THIS IS GOD DAMN INCREDIBLE, I hope the next one you do is Cerebrawl, that one’s pretty underrated.
Well this is one way to console for a crappy night. Great music as always.
Hope you're feeling better, cheers!
Using the metal bucket zombie sound as drums is genius 👌👌👌
Thank you!
this was my favorite soundtrack from the original game and i`m glad you made a remix of it
Great remix!
Thank you!
YES HERE WE GO BOIS
Damn your PVZ remixes are the best I've heard
Thank you so, so much!
Rigor mormist was my favorite remix of yours, and I'm very glad that you kept the jazzy feel. Maybe you should consider something from Hollow Knight.
Again, you are amazingly talented. It sounds awesome!! ❤️
Thanks, love! ❤️
I find it funny this has been uploaded, I was literally playing this game the other night and finishing it. lol Love this!
Thank you!
You're CRAAAAAAAAZY
Other Brainiac Maniac remixes: I'm gonna add a ton of rock, EDM and techno to this
This remix: h e h e *e l e v a t o r m u s i c*

Thank you so much!
This is amazing! The best Maniac Brainiac cover/remix by FAR!
Whelp, its time for PVZ2 music remixes, that would give her A TON of views xD
Seii dropping these bangers
This is great. Normally I'll check a remix out and you can't even hear the original song, but in this one you actually complemented the original really well.
Ah crap. My "Silvagunner mindset" is hearing Golden Wind from JBA....
Also outstanding work on this!
I love the perfect use of the ingame sound effects!
That Bungee Zombie sound never gets old.... :)
I love this remix you just got another sub!!!
Holy guacamole! This blew me away faster than a cob cannon! I shall be keeping an eye on this channel...
3:58 oh cool i got a diamond :)
Use it wisely!
I must say this is a good remix, I love the beats, and I also love how you added in a few in-game sound effects. Probably makes it better.
This is one of the best remixes of this song I've ever heard.
This is too much awesomeness to the point that I'm loving it.

Literal todos tus remixes de Pvz tienen mi like , eres increible , ya de por si el soundtrack era casi inmejorable , y lograste hacerlo , y se nota la diferencia , incluso tu primer remix , Graze the Roof , es iconico en este punto
Gracias por el remix, amiga te lo agradezco mucho, este juego fue parte de mi infancia y uno de mis favoritos. Saludos desde Venezuela 👋🇻🇪😁😋
Si a pesar de ser un tipo de 12 lo juge a los 4 años y eres de la colombia con estrellitas

You used the buckethead noise for percussion. Love it!
THAT IS WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT!!!!! Awesome remixes!
Thank you!
Nicely done with the Remix, Seii. :D
Thanks!
@@seiinity No prob :D
I really like the details, even if it's just the song, you can picture what's happening in the back, bucket heads/zombot getting damaged, jalapeno and ice shrooms, YEEHAWWW, the zombot cough/moving, etc, overall a beautiful piece. (Oh and the achievement sound you get after defeating zomboss)
This is beautiful. It gave me memories of when I was a kid and beat Zomboss for the first time. First time I ever felt accomplished in life. Excellent remix.
oooo nice just like i expected amazing effort
Thanks!
Ooof this is the best theme of PvZ and you make it better ty
aaa I love your pvz remixes so much
Thank you so much!
