May Madness has begun! Every May, we revisit some old GaMetal arrangements and give them a fresh coat of paint. I really wanted to remake this one last year, but it was edged out by a few other songs that I wanted to get to. This was a popular request in the May Madness 2019 polls, so it was an easy choice to kick off May 2019. Lots more songs are headed your way before the month ends, see you in the next video!
For that to happen, it would have to have been a good game to begin with. Fact of the matter is, they milked it for 3 and still couldn't get anything out of it.
Someday...Golden Sun (1&2) would be remade into one single game with enhanced graphics, music and no need to use a notoriously long password for data transfer. *And we'll call it Golden Sun DX*
God yes. Isaac battle theme still kicks as one of the best normal battle themes of all time. Your original cover was solid and this improvement fucking slaps. Never stop improving, you keep doing such awesome work.
For some reason I can’t listen to Golden Sun music of any kind without getting goosebumps all over and tears in my eyes. This isn’t a complaint. It’s just satisfaction.
The Golden Sun series are such underrated games! They deserve way more credit and need to be acknowledged more around the world! They're revolutionary RPGs that had never contained this tysle of gameplay style before... These games shaped my childhood and are the reason (Along with Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy, and The Legend of Zelda) why I love video games to this day❤❤
It's cuz they came out near the end of the respective hand helds life or were overshadowed by some other game. It's a sad life to tell your friend about your favorite jrpg and they say they've never even heard of it
Saw the notification, clicked it as fast as I could, thanks for updating this song Jonny, Golden Sun is and will always be one of my favorite game series of all time. Edit: Holy crap, the boss theme remix is amazing, amazing job!
Amazing that you're still doing some Golden Sun stuff, I'd love to hear even more from the games. Maybe the boss theme from Dark Dawn or the Agatio and Karst battle theme?
This is the ultimate version so far. Absolutely adore this. Edit: just listened to this 3 straight times. The nostalgia this gave me almost brought me to tears. (I'm 28.) thank you. Thank you so much for this. It's easily in my top 3 favorite video game themes.
All the Golden Sun stuff you've done is literally 115/10. You really capture exactly how I perceived these songs when playing the game. You are truly doing the Wise One's work. I can only imagine your version of Felix's Battle theme and how it would be sickkkkkkkkkkkk
HEEEELLLLL YEEEEAAAAAH!!! I needed this. Like, literally was having a depression fueled anxiety attack breakdown, and your Saturos and Menardi and Doom Dragon themes always pick me up when i'm... well, falling down the deep end. Thank you for this. Thank you so damn much, Mr. Atma. This just gave me positive energy and... *sigh* you don't want nor need to hear my crap... just thank you. Thank you so much for always making these amazing songs....
Wow!!! I'm so happy to have stumbled here by accident! Not only Golden Sun, but an amazing revisit?!? I am pulling out my GBA tonight, the inspiration has begun!!
This is amazing! I was already in love with your old remix, but this... this is simply spectacular! The transition into the boss theme was especially great, and you managed to make it keep this sense of danger and urgency the original has. Very well done, thank you very much!
Okay, so weird thing today, I randomly had a thought pop up in my head about Gametal making a cover of the Golden Sun battle theme, and I find this in my feed four hours ago. A very weird yet cool psychic thought. And that's not a lie, I literally was asking myself why I had such a random thought pop up in my head.
New favorite remix of this theme. I will forever love GS, and the fact that people are still showing their love and passion for the series more than a decade and a half past it's initial release date is awesome to me.
Thanks man for bringing back those sweet memories of my "Childhood". Really loved this games and the Characters, the Music, the... ahh just everything about it. I love to see that there are so many more people who think like me and still love this series after all those sad years o ignorance from Nintendo. Thanks for everyone of all you People. Love you all, you are great!
Unknown bargain bin leftover your friend left in your GBA case, But then suddenly. CHILDHOOD. No one expected a GBA to shred this hard, but there it was. I heard it 3 times over before I made my first menu input. Haven't skipped a random battle since.
Lost count of how many times I've listened to this, it's amazing :) Love it since I have played Golden Sun more than twice and the nostalgia is a fact Keep up the good work :) With much love Jay Cee Chess'n'Metal
Man, the memories. I DISCOVERED YOURE CHANNEL SEARCHING FOR A COVER OF THIS SONG. You made me happy that time, and now you did it again. Fucking Genius
You won't believe how big my eyes got seeing golden sun related content from your channel in my subscriptions, thank you for the badass music Gametal QuQ
¡El *MEJOR REMIX* de un Soundtrack de uno de los *MEJORES JUEGOS DE RPG* que he jugado en toda mi existencia!! ¡Sin duda que te luciste con esto Jonny! 👏👏👏
I was humming this song while working in my shop this afternoon. Back home... this video on my suggestion page, this is how powerful the TH-cam algo is :)
There’s so many arrangements and remixes of the isaac battle theme, to the point where I was like “UGH” when I saw this but holy crap this is too good. Makin’ me love the song all over again.
Oh god, this is awesome! I LOVE the Golden Sun series, and the first holds a special place in my heart. The music was so good, and hearing it likes this just fills me with joy x33 thank you so much!
Great cover as always, can't get tired of them, they are just so good. Also, please, one day do Agatio and Karst Boss Battle Theme cover, probably one of the most underrated boss themes for one of the best fights and moments in Golden Sun: The Lost Age. Edit: theme to them.
My favorite part of this and all his other videos is that you can see the love and the sheer passion that he has for the music. Incredible video and music as always ♥️
I feel like every other remake of this song lacks the kind of fire and fury that this one absolutely brings. It's a battle theme, and it knows it. All others attempts feel weak by comparison. Absolutely love this.
I've seen this video recommended for a while and I was worried that this rendition wasn't going to do the original track justice. But now I'm glad I clicked!
Oh fuck yeah, Isaac's battle theme is a real banger, and definitely one of my favorite Sakuraba battle themes out there, and you did a excellent job at it; haven't heard the other one before tho surprisingly, but ngl, it definitely has the Sakuraba vibe, if not even more so, which I really like as well Maybe you should do one of the battle themes from Star Ocean as well? (the SNES original btw) There's also Fighting of the Spirit from Tales of Phantasia, which, while that isn't made by Sakuraba, I do think it would be worth it IMO (just please don't do the Symphonia version, literally everyone does that version, and it makes me pissed)
@@lordofhostsappreciator3075 I mean, tbh, I haven't listened to much of that version myself, and while yeah, for a general arrangement it would probably be better for it to be based around that one... I dunno, I just feel like that version is missing something the original version doesn't have; maybe add some elements from the original Phantasia version along with the Symphonia version? that could probably help making things a bit more fleshed out I'd say lol
Tsk, tsk, showing Deadbeard footage during the boss theme. That fight actually uses the same theme as the penultimate Saturos & Menardi fight, which you covered earlier! Great to hear the series getting some more love, though! I personally prefer the battle themes from The Lost Age, so I hope those'll get a turn eventually.
Golden Sun 1 and 2 were absolutely ahead of their time and i am so glad that i was born in this time to be able to play them when they were still new and fresh. I will never forget those memories. It's about time i get that emulator running since my original games went missing after i moved away.
I never quite finished the game (got lost somewhere in the overworld) but the battle screen presentation blew me away. The great music, sprites, and turning and shifting battlefield looked amazing on the GBA.
Oh god yes, so great to have this along with the Saturos/Saturos+Menardi cover! I forget if you did Colosso or other miscellaneous battle themes but they're sure as heck welcome! Keep up the awesome work!
So you remade it into a better version? Sweet guacamole you're amazing. This is my favorite game so I was actually surprised. I expected fusion or doom dragon but I'm so very fine with this

Jonny, please remake your old cover of The Ultimate Show. Perfect for may madness, no? Love your music by the way, this is ebic
I'm a simple man. I see golden sun, I like

Me too lol
I'm a simple man, i see a man who likes golden sun, i click like!
Your amount of likes must be really small
Same
I wish Golden Sun was remade or recognized more today.
Least we got some awesome metal remixes to remind us that it hasn't fully died yet!
For that to happen, it would have to have been a good game to begin with. Fact of the matter is, they milked it for 3 and still couldn't get anything out of it.
@@UmbreonMessiah idk bro I had a lot of fun with it
@@UmbreonMessiah doesn't Pikmin only have 3 games tho?

*Golden Sun: The Shine of 4 Elements*
TheWowSign
Thats a loss ass name and kinda bad no offence
Thank God the time I played Golden sun 1 and 2 its a gba rom and thanks the stars data transfer worked
And hopefully "enhanced graphics" means fully built from the ground up, stylized visuals, rather than some crappy HD retexture
Hey, Nintendo, could we get the Golden Sun trilogy on the switch please?
Alongside golden sun 4 of course
Golden Sun on Switch would be brilliant!
Hey, could I get golden sun 3 with the graphics of 1? The mario 64 style 3d was a downgrade
@@Tzen03 the third one especially I hated the line during the cutscenes when you summon djinn

God yes. Isaac battle theme still kicks as one of the best normal battle themes of all time. Your original cover was solid and this improvement fucking slaps. Never stop improving, you keep doing such awesome work.
Here lies Isaac.
He never Smashed.
Poor fella.
He did smash... Just in the Flash one sadly
He did smash, he has a son
He died virgi-
You faintly hear a sad 'Wah' in the distance as you see a tall figure approaching... It seems like you have made a powerful ally in this losing battle
Too soon...
Captured the essence of Motoi Sakuraba's style perfect. Great cover.
For some reason I can’t listen to Golden Sun music of any kind without getting goosebumps all over and tears in my eyes.

Been replaying the game on the Wii-U virtual console.
I can't believe how well it has aged, still one of the best JRPGs out there.
Sick remix!
YESSSS! Golden Sun is ALWAYS a fantastic option!
Yeeaaaah one of my favorite game. And game soundtracks! Thanks for making this! Feel so nostalgic now
Saw the notification, clicked it as fast as I could, thanks for updating this song Jonny, Golden Sun is and will always be one of my favorite game series of all time.
Edit:
Holy crap, the boss theme remix is amazing, amazing job!
one of the best battle themes and this is one of the best covers of it!
Amazing that you're still doing some Golden Sun stuff, I'd love to hear even more from the games. Maybe the boss theme from Dark Dawn or the Agatio and Karst battle theme?
which boss theme? there's like 4 basic boss themes?

Oh yes. I love this very much. Thanks for making this. Golden Sun will always be in my gamer heart. I absolutely love Golden Sun!
Golden Sun will rise again.
...One of these days.
HEEEELLLLL YEEEEAAAAAH!!! I needed this. Like, literally was having a depression fueled anxiety attack breakdown, and your Saturos and Menardi and Doom Dragon themes always pick me up when i'm... well, falling down the deep end.
Thank you for this. Thank you so damn much, Mr. Atma. This just gave me positive energy and... *sigh* you don't want nor need to hear my crap... just thank you. Thank you so much for always making these amazing songs....
Wow!!! I'm so happy to have stumbled here by accident! Not only Golden Sun, but an amazing revisit?!? I am pulling out my GBA tonight, the inspiration has begun!!
Isaac unleashes Flint!
21 damage!!!
I've had Isaac's Theme as my ring tone for almost a decade. Such a fucking badass theme!
I've never clicked so fast in my entire life. Eargasmic remix!
Loved your cover of Saturos Battle a while back, Golden Sun doesn't get a lot of appreciation.
This is amazing! I was already in love with your old remix, but this... this is simply spectacular!
The transition into the boss theme was especially great, and you managed to make it keep this sense of danger and urgency the original has.
Very well done, thank you very much!
the composers of the songs of that game should receive recognition too :( thanks for making it happen because i really love golden sun.

Now this is how you make a Sun glow Golden, with an amazing remix from an amazing song from an amazing game.

DEFINITELY Paper Bowser coming next.
