- Pokémon had never seen such rockin' 80's music until Pokémon Sun and Moon came along and brought along Vast Poni Canyon. This track is one of the best 80's jams in the entire Pokémon franchise, and I'm happy to present my saxophone jazz cover / remix of it! Thanks to my bro Swiggles RP for providing some guitar on very short notice!

This was the first song I heard from Pokémon Sun & Moon that made my jaw drop. Seriously, Vast Poni Canyon is that good of a tune. Vast Poni Canyon's music had some fun 80's vibes to it with an awesome pan flute lead, and a killer bass groove. While I think the OST of Pokémon Sun & Moon OST is surprisingly hit or miss, Vast Poni Canyon is definitely one of the stand-out tunes for me, personally. I hope you all dig my jazz arrangement of Pokémon Sun & Moon's Vast Poni Canyon :D
I arrange, record, and produce jazz covers of video game music every other Saturday morning on my TH-cam channel! My channel combines my loves of jazz and video game music, creating covers and remixes you'll definitely enjoy.

the "Finally I can Evolve my Charjabug Canyon" Jazz cover
Owen5gs Naw it is so slow
It never gets to use it. It is not bulky enough to live more then one hit and it honestly does not hit hard enough. You do around 2/3s to anything with decent bulk and it is bot fast enough to finish something off. It really needed a good priority move.
and magnemite
Magnemite was totally worth it. Eviolite Magneton was really, really good. Was actually kinda sad to see it evolve.
Fighterman481 It is fast too so it is a useful mon. Magnizone is solid too. It gives you just the kick of power to help out at the end game.
I actually traded my Charjabug to my brother who already finished the game in order to evolve it into a Vikavolt. But Vast Poni Canyon's theme is still a gift upon this world.
Charjabug really should be able to evolve earlier in the game :p
@@insaneintherainmusic blush mountain (geothermal powerplant) on the previous island
@@romacalor that only in usum i believe
Hear that? That's the sound of Charjabugs evolving.
😂❤
The funk guitar added a whole new layer of funk to the funk. Did I mention it was funky? Funk.
Funk yeah!
You sure took us to funky town with this one Carlos!
huehue
Funk off
I could have eaten this jazz cover.
Not you again.
Is that why they're called tasty jams?
most definitely
Groovy music, Lillie development, plot and a fun experience all around.
What's not to love?
Ian Khoo You forgot evolving fucking vikabolt
Lillie most overrated Pokemon character ever. I mean she is cute and all as a growing character, but why is she so loved?
Odrareg17 Because you go with her trough all her problems. You have the possibility to know how does she feel and you see how she goes trough all her problems with Lusamine and her past. I really like Lillie because she was the trigger of your adventure and you mostly ended it with her. She evolves during the story and that is rarely seen in Pókemon.
peepoTM Yeah fuck Triko! Lillie FTW!! XDDDD
peepo cant argue there, this fanbase is full of weirdos
This is where so many people lost their Acrobatics Charjabug, and I think that is both a beautiful and sad thing.
Life moves on :')
I know this is a 5 year old video but I've been going back through your old stuff since you announced you were stopping and I felt like I needed to comment on this one in particular for the fact that not only have you done a phenomenal job with it (as you always have) but it stands to me as I couldn't even remember this track or part of the game to be honest but I absolutely adore this piece and have kept going back to it over and over and just can't get enough of it. Also it has to be said that SwigglesRP's funky bass was a brilliant choice of a feature. He took this to an even greater level.
This is literally my favorite song in the Pokémon sun and moon ost. I also have been looking back it this video it’s just to good
3:20 "unh" -Carlos Eiene, 2016
Killer job as always, man. This is such a funky arrangement, between your beautiful backing lines and Ro's extra layer of sound, it really brings that 80s vibe to the forefront!
when you totally forget about this sick jam because you were so excited to get a vikavolt. I mean I still love it, and this cover, I just totally forgot it even existed.
I know how you feel dude. I was the same way with Crabominable. Why do they all have to be so late game?
insaneintherainmusic what if I told you I used both, would it sound impressive? And I mean on the same team, for my first run through. I was so confused, so I looked it up, and debated switching team members, but doing it that late in the game was pointless. Let me tell you vikavolt was the best member on my team hands down, he was the clean up crew.
You tortured yourself for so much of the game... actually Crabrawler wasn't too hard to use during the main story. Once it learned Crabhammer things got a lot easier!
insaneintherainmusic charjabug isn't hard to use either because its got amazing coverage. it knew spark, bug bite, acrobatics, and crunch. plus it had nice defenses, so he could last quite a bit.
Oh hell no. i put eviolite on that thing and it tanked anything i had to face. I ended up having mixed feelings about evolving it.
I'm so Gladion! Another Sun and Moon cover! Hau does he do it? Why, I could just scream and Hala! It's perfect for snuggling up with a nice cup of Tapu Cocoa... (Okay I'll stop)
Sun.... you've already said too much. Solgalego to bed.
lol. ur pokemon covers are always top notch
Thank you for noticing me Sempai.
More like Nihilego to bed, am I right?

I just got to Vast Poni Canyon in the game and I was blown away.
So blown away that just as soon as I got to the area, I shut off the game, turned on my laptop and came here to see how you'd make it 10 times better.
And frankly by now I've got a greater chance of catching a shiny than disliking your music.
Thanks for thinking of me, man!!
play this at my funeral
Consider it done. Just don't think people are dancing because they're happy you're dead, it's just because of the absolute funk.
Man, it’s been nearly 3 years since you posted this... feels like just yesterday I was listening to this tune for the first time when I got pokemon moon :) this will always be a favorite of mine, thanks for the jams
You’re welcome :)
You know, I was like "Vast Poni Canyon's pretty cool, would be sick if my boy insaneinthecany- OH. OH MY. HE'S JUST MADE IT A MINUTE AGO. THIS ONE... YEP. THIS ONE IS GOING IN THE FOLDER."
insaneinthecanyon huh.... I'm stealing this.
Well, guess I'm gonna need some new headphones after this one... Geez, man, are you serious with this right now?! Let's start with all your sax chords in the background. The tuning and mixing of those are just sublime. Swiggles' guitar playing, both the rhythm chords and solo, is fantastic, exactly what you would want for a tune like this. Same for the bass, just perfect with it's funky counter-melodic taste. Electric piano rocking the chords for that extra flavor. Lead sax just killing it, drums/percussion on point...
You've hit a grand slam with this one! Phenomenal job, you two!
casually drinking water whilst making a positively delicious jazz cover
Swiggles RP has skill on that guitar. That guitar solo was on point my guy.
HeHe's really good, massive thanks to him for recording this part on such short notice!
The Vast Poni was too good. Your music skills make it 3000x better, no joke
SwigglesRP!! Heck yes! Damn this is some funky sweetness. I love it!
:^)
SwigglesRP BAAAAH Q_Q SO RAD!
I absolutely love this song, and the entire soundtrack of Sun and Moon might be my favorites of the entire series. I love how you took the funky aspect of the song, and just exaggerated it with Swiggles to fit your style, and it absolutely works! It definitely would be awesome to hear this while playing the game. Amazing job.
Man, what a time to be a Pokemon fan and an insaneintherainmusic fan! Keep up the great work! :D
This is already 1 year old and i still can't stop listening to it I don't think a cover like this could be more perfect
This has to be the best song in the game's soundtrack, in my opinion, and you guys just NAILED IT!!!! Good job, stay hip.
I can't tell if it's intentional, but that "ahh" in the background at 3:20 just makes this song twice as entertaining for me, I love it.
After several weeks, I just keep coming back to this, and it never gets old. Every part of it is exciting, and this may be one of my favorite musical pieces I've ever listened to. Good stuff.
So glad that you like this rendition, man. Keep coming back, this tune will be here for you :)
Yeah, gonna have to make "weeks" into months lol
Here in 2020 just to confirm this is still a jam
That intro is one of the greatest sounds i've heard in years.
Haha I'm really happy with how the intro sounds!
Am I the only one that notices at 1:41 he has a giant water bottle but yet still casually plays along. Look at the bottom left.

As soon as I hit this theme ingame I thought "insaneintherain has to do a jazz cover of this" and I'm so glad to see you already did. Keep jamming, buddy this is awesome
Thanks man! I thought the same thing when I first heard this track in the OST :)
This is so funky and I love it. Vast Poni Canyon needs more love and I'm really glad you covered it.
Also, I was a big fan of the keychange at the end.
I think I've listened to this song over 50 times now. Still not tired of how awesome this is.
Thanks for all the listens
* Continues to listen to this song*
My personal favorite of your Pokémon SM covers. Please make more!
the best part about me having an unexpected and undesired hiatus from youtube is rediscovering amazing songs long after they first came out. wow, my favourite sun/moon theme did justice!
You really hit the 80s feel in this one, cudos to you both! And I completely agree, Vast Poni Canyon was the first theme that made my jaw drop as well!
Ohhhh I love what you did with this piece this time around. Extra jazzy with that bass too. Keep up the amazing work, love it as always!
This is AMAZING! What a fantastic cover, great job both of you!
Glad you made a cover of it. When I first heard Vast Poni Canyon theme I just knew it that it would be a perfect theme for you to cover and I am not disappointed, it's amazing!
It makes me happy inside to know that people think of me when they hear the tunes in the game! Thank you so much, man :)
AMAZING!! vast poni canyon is my favourite ost from the game and this jazz rendition made me love it 100x more!
Thank you so much! Really appreciate it :D
I've listened to it a couple of times now, reading the music as it plays, and each time I appreciate your arrangement more and more!
Thanks man!
I don't know what it is about Pokemon Sun and Moon. It's just too good with the music and the storyline in my opinion.
Great cover, as always. Reminds me of that day I spent ten minutes at the entrance of Vast Poni Canyon jamming to the song.
Man I can totally feel the funk. Awesome cover.
Thanks a bunch man!
SO funky!! That is some awesome guitar work! Also 10/10 for the facial expressions whilst playing the tambourine!
Yeeah! This was a fun track to play, thanks so much!
8 years later, this still being awesome
Great arrangement!
2:53 I thought someone was knocking at my door every time /laugh and cry face
Shocking on the tambourine, best facial expressions for this song.👌
I waited for 3 weeks just to hear your rendition of this, and DANG DID YOU COME THROUGH! You and Swiggles did an amazing job with this, thanks so much for covering my favorite song from Sun and Moon. Can't wait for more!
More will come! I might take a break from Pokémon next week to bring something new...
Sounds great! And I wouldn't mind a break from Pokémon because after all, everything you make is absolutely amazing!
Been listening to this for the past hour. I don't even remember this track in the game! Favourite from your Sun and Moon covers so far.
Thanks so much for listening :D
Astonishing! Everything you do sounds like you've got the top players on every instrument to play a top arranger's works in a studio setting, and you're just one guy churning this stuff out weekly. Just incredible. You always get top stuff out of your collaborators too; Ro was a great addition :)
Thanks man! That's the sort of stuff I strive for with my work :)
It's funny, cause I have just gotten through Vast Poni Canyon in my game, and I completely agree that this song is amazing. Awesome remix of this!
Got this for christmas, and got to this area today. As soon as I heard, I remembered you did a cover it. Great vibes, great medley, great game. Cheers to you my dude!
Yeah dude! I agree with all your statements of awesomeness ;)
Oh my god this is so amazing. Smooth and funky. You just have to love this!
This was hands down my favorite song from Pokémon Sun/Moon. Thank you for bringing it new life!
You made the best song in the game even better! This earned a place next to Eterna Forest and Alight (Storm) as my favorite jazz covers you've made. Great work!
Wow, glad you like it! I personally don't think this song is quite on the same level as this tune.
*that tune, but thanks anyway!
When I first heard this track in-game I immediately had to put it on my list of franchise favorites. Great work on the cover man, it's perfect jam material!
Ooh new sax mixing! Also Ro's guitar sounds pretty sweet.
Loving these S&M covers man.
Yep, double tracked saxophones! Ro was a nice touch.
Plz more with Mr. Swiggles. Such a great team.
We're glad to hear that you like it! Swiggles and I will be making music together for a long time :)
im committed for life :^) this is probably our 10th song together!
Enjoyed it like always! The orange-ish filter really fits considering its played at the canyon. Keep it up!
This game has seriously sick basslines. Great cover, as always!
Two seconds in and I'm already getting chills. Fantastic cover of an amazing song! You're doing a killer job with all these Sun and Moon covers!
Thanks a ton :D
You, my friend, did this cover right. You have my respect.
ずっと聞いてます 生の楽器の音がとても心地良く…原曲のジャズの親和性と相まって素晴らしい！
ありがとうございます！私の曲の中で、いつも生楽器の演奏を作るのが好き。大体作曲家はMIDI音源を作るようにするけど、その感じすれば、音質が下がるでしょう。ゲーム機本体の限定以外、一番優秀な音質を出したいので、微妙な編曲とか生楽器の演奏を使いたいだと思います！
I've been waiting all week for this! Did not disappoint.
1:42 - 1:49
Hello there, Eterna Forest. What brings you here? Besides sounding awesome, I mean?
I'm so glad I got to listen to this track back when I was running around for hours trying to find a dang Jangmo-o. You DEFINITELY did the tune justice. This shall henceforth be "my jam."
This and the gladion theme are my favourites from sun and moon, and you've done them both why are you so good to me
I aim to please
the sax solos get me every time, great stuff as usual!
Thank you!
Now this is some smooth funk! I'm in this area right now, so this came out at the perfect time.
Sweet! I figured some people would be finishing the game at this point :)
Nothing like some passionate tambourine to end the day with. Good stuff!
Tambourine is the stuff of life :)
Oh gosh, I was just thinking this would be an amazing cover done by you and HERE IT IS.
Happy to deliver :D
YEEEE BOIIII!!! I love this song so much and for you to have worked your magic on it is a blessing!
Thank you so much for checking it out :D
wow tht was the fastest 5 minutes of a song ive ever heard. amazing job!
What an excellent composition here :) Absolutely gorgeous!
I love this cover! I'm so happy with the soundtrack of this game and it fuels my need for a diamond and pearl remake tbh
Thanks so much! I'm super duper excited for the inevitable Gen 4 remakes. I'm seriously going to cry when it gets announced, they're my favorite Pokémon games of all time, and they hold a special place in my heart.
ahhhhh you replied! can we expect a 'farewell nebby' cover? it's already got a boppy yet melancholy feel ;)
What's the title of that tune from the OST? I searched it, but I didn't find one that matched that title...
not too sure but i'm pretty sure its just 'farewell'
^^^ maybe this?? lmao
I've watched this like 6 times already. Great job you two!
Thanks for watching it so much, we really appreciate it!
This track seems to suit your style perfectly, you both did an awesome job! Probably my favourite track from the game
Yep, it fits my style to a T! Thanks for listening, Hylian :)
imo this beats the other covers by a vast margin.
I'll see myself out.
seriously though, this cover is amazing and I'd love to see you do a cover of guzma's battle music.
andro27 idk whether to laugh or be really mad about your comment
Perfecting what was once thought perfect...
this man I swear...
This sounds so beautiful. I like the sax part a lot!
Lol love the dancing with the shaker and tambourine
Percussion is fun :p
It's going to be so weird when I can finally play the games and the music isn't your covers :P
excellent work as always you guys!
I love this cover!!! It's so groovy! (Also, do you have any plans to make a Sun and Moon album similar to Back to Your Littleroots?)
Amazing job boys!!! One of my favourite things from you for sure. You know I love my funk
THANK YOU AND SEE YOU SOON
This song was an absolute banger, glad you covered it
Thanks man!

Hey, thank you so much! Might put these in an album at some point :)
This is incredible! I could listen to this all day!
Love this song, and the way you've covered it, it almost sounds like Volcano! Inferno! from Mother 3 at parts.
Just checked that out, that's a pretty cool song! Thanks for listening!
You ARE the JAZZ master so glad I found this channel
You are now a Raindrop, Welcome! :D
