@@insaneintherainmusic did I miss that. I may simply be blind and just saw the other trumpet player but I still think he absolutely nailed the stylized baloon deflating noises
Yep rewatching and I am simply blind and silly. Also as a former trumpet player I both love and feel the the trying-to-get-as-much-concentrated-air-as-possible faces he makes when he's playing 10/10
Endless respect for your arranging skills of course, but also for getting a band feeling with people separated from each other in clearly less than ideal recording rooms - the production quality is excellent.
This song has the feel of going into the back room to do some illegal gambling, then later getting jumped by some mob henchmen in an dark alley. Love it!

FUUUUUUUUCKKKKKKK MAN this is BITCHIN. Excuse my french but i dont know any other way to properly put it into words. This is so sophisticated, without being immature. Tasteful rather than show-offy. Room to breathe. Sounds like a big band that's been touring for years. You, sir, are BRILLIANT.
Expected reply: isn't it a jazz classic already?... Non-expected continuation: ...or you mean a MAINSTREAM/"overrated" jazz classic already? I'd say, it's a jazz classic of the UNDERGROUND side of jazz music, aha.
I loved that so much! Basie is my favorite jazz artist and I loved how much this arrangement sounded like his work. This is one of my favorite year of sinnoh songs you've done so far!
Carlos what is your favorite gen 4 legendary? Me and Brooke were just talking about this the other week, her favorite legendary is from Gen 4, and tbh it's what made me go and listen to more of your music! You're THE Pokémon DPPt music guy in my eyes 😂
Jepson & Games Defintely Dialga! I’ve always loved steel types, and I think Dialga’s design + its depiction in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Time/Darkness/Sky takes the cake! And thanks! I am very much trying to be the Pokémon DPPt music guy LOL
@@insaneintherainmusic Okay so, I share an identical opinion except for one: Origin Forme Giratina is my favorite, but if you include Mystery Dungeon (duh) then yeah Primal Dialga is 1000% my favorite legendary in the whole franchise.
Guys only want one thing and it's disgusting Guys: But seriously, by making 2020 the Year Of Sinnoh, you've neutralized all of the B.S we had to go through. You've done an absolutely amazing job, and I can't wait to here what you've got coming for us next 😍
Guys only want one thing and it's disgusting me: POKEMON JAZZ And thank you so much! I hope to keep improving lives to the extent that I can with my music :3
This is the most ‘big band jazz’ big band jazz I have ever heard. Legend has it that Veilstone city’s theme is the only music to ever make Cyrus tap his foot, and that’s why he built his base there. Mad props, Carlos, you’ve done it again!
I’ve been taking a class on the history and techniques of jazz this semester and let me say, my appreciation for this channel has only grown by doing so. Finally starting to recognize all these techniques you merge together so flawlessly with the original songs just gives me another level of appreciation to all these songs you’ve been making for so long. Well done, my dude
I work at a library. Today, we were incredibly short staffed so a 17 year old with only a little over a year of experience (me) had to pretty much be circulation manager. Honestly, knowing that a new Year of Sinnoh song was coming today was the only thing keeping me sane. Now that I've actually heard it, I feel like I could be circ manager all the time! Hahaha, in all seriousness this was a good way to take a chill pill after a really hectic day. Thanks, Carlos!
2:32 - that triplet fill was so cool omg O_o Veilstone's *easily* my favorite Sinnoh song, and ya really brought it to life!! Ya killed it my dude, great job!!! 😁🔥
Honestly, without the clue in the title there wouldn't have been a way to know this is a video game cover/arrangement. It stands alone as a great modern Big Band tune and I think that's how it should be! Carlos helps showcase the tunes from these games, but not in a cheesy way, and keeps jazz alive today.
Relistening to this, I remember being so happy when you released this! For a long time I've been looking for a jazz cover of my favorite city theme in all of Sinnoh and I'm so glad you did!
WOAHHH CARLOS ON THE GRIND!! P.S I sleep to your music all the time and my jazz teacher loves your eterna forest and showed it to my jazz band as an example for balance and sound. Your music is amazing keep it up.
I enjoyed Veilstone the most out of almost every other city. Not only for the music or the game corner, but because the gym was the first one to ACTUALLY be a gym.
I first came across your music on Spotify when I was looking for the mii theme one day. Only just found out about this channel recently and it has so much DPPt content. I grew up playing those games and childhood me (and adult me) would be so happy. Thank you for bringing me back to that time and for bringing a new spin on the music that I grew up with.
I love these big band Jazz covers! I’m not too familiar with the Pokémon music, as I never even played the games, but I immensely enjoy these anyway. I’m an aspiring jazz musician, and these never cease to spark joy and motivation for me. Thank you so much!!
This arrangement is so fun and lively I love it, I don’t think he would remember but years ago I told Carlos I wanted to hear him try out veilstone and he responded saying he had “big plans” and wanted to wait for the right time. This was totally worth the wait Carlos, love it!
Carlos I love how you’re a man of multi-instrumental talent slash genius arranger, and yet you walk a less trodden path, expressing your joy through reimagining VGM into jazz standards whose excellence transcends the niche context. I’m not even a huge gaming fan yet I anxiously await for your every release. welcome to the 21st century, a time when the Oscar Petersons, Chet Bakers and Charlie Parkers play pokemon
Currently doing a Nuzlocke in platinum and in stuck in this dang city. And the surrounding areas. Maylene is very, very tough. But I’ve been biking back and forth on my bicycle everyday. My 10 year old calves are about to be so ripped, I could take on Maylene one on one with one Low Sweep!
Just the perfect cover for this theme Carlos. Big band was absolutely the right call here. Lots of swagger and personality throughout the whole thing. Loved it!
It’s really amazing how well the mixing sounds with all these different individual parts coming from multiple different players and settings! EXCELLENT performance from everyone all around!
I love this arrangement so so so much, its the perfect type of city life atmosphere I needed. Just one gripe : is it OK to be sitting while doing a trumpet solo??? 2:00
Veilstone is the city of strolling down the street and listening to jazz street performers while on your way to the casino
Yes! Totally. Right back to the 40's!
R.I.P. Game Corners... 😢
@@JoshJepson Haven't heard that name in years

I'm pretty sure Carlos composed the original Veilstone City theme. Why is he covering his own tracks?
I can't get enough of Sinnoh Ron, you know that
@@insaneintherainmusic to be fair is too much sinnoh a thing?
just call me jasper
Unfortunately, that doesn’t exist.
@@sharpshooterxigbar5713 Cool thought so
@@insaneintherainmusic You should check out Orre, Pyrite Town and Miror B's theme are great.

I NEED this especially for the remakes

10/10
During the premiere I played along on my violin. It was great.
You can't make a jazzy theme even more jazzy!
insaneintherain: Hold my saxophone
wouldn't he need his sax to play though? Then again he has like 5 of them
This feels like an old Basie chart and I love it
Exactly what I was going for :)
Carlos has mastered the art of Kung Saxo-Fu.
Kung Fu Sax-Soo!
Endless respect for your arranging skills of course, but also for getting a band feeling with people separated from each other in clearly less than ideal recording rooms - the production quality is excellent.
My favorite song in all of Sinnoh. Been waiting for this ever since Year of Sinnoh started. Absolutely amazing!
Thank you so much! Happy to finally deliver it for you!
"Jazz Arrangement"
implying veilstone city isn't the swankiest goddamn tune around to begin with
its already on my playlist
It was already in the playlist before it premiered
If it doesn't sound like this in the remakes I swear... oh come on, they won't do it as AMAZING as this rendition, GREAT JOB!
This song has the feel of going into the back room to do some illegal gambling, then later getting jumped by some mob henchmen in an dark alley. Love it!

Kudos to everyone involved!
4:32 I don't know why, but that single tom hit brought me so much joy when I first heard this!
Me when i see there is a new sinnoh arrangement from carlos: **hyper vantilating** , i need to watch this *now*
what a coincidence, I was playing Platinum and just reached Veilstone today, as always great work :D
5 people have no soul to not be sensitive to that beautiful jazzy cover

2:00 obligatory double bass face !
Your covers are on a completely other level. I jam to this like it's a jazz classic
Lol I didn't even notice! Now every double bass player must do this! Lol
Expected reply: isn't it a jazz classic already?...
Non-expected continuation: ...or you mean a MAINSTREAM/"overrated" jazz classic already?
I'd say, it's a jazz classic of the UNDERGROUND side of jazz music, aha.
Definitely got some Basie vibes. That one piano lick before the big hit puts it all together!
Nothing says "comfy" like playing trumpet in a gaming chair.

I love the fact that you worked some bass clarinet into the arrangement! Clarinet work in jazz is one of the things I'm absolutely a sucker for!
I loved that so much! Basie is my favorite jazz artist and I loved how much this arrangement sounded like his work. This is one of my favorite year of sinnoh songs you've done so far!
Thanks Bryce! I've played quite a few of Basie's tunes in big bands and they're so fun :)
Basie is the best of the big band bois in my eyes!
I’ve been awaiting this once for six months.
And I am not disappointed. I mean- are we ever disappointed with Carlos??

This has such a classic jazz sound and vibe to it. Davis, Ellington and Monk must be so proud right now from the afterlife.

2:21 Rocking the symmetric diminished scale! Such a cool sound.
Well done, as someone who's first pokmeon game was sinnoh this is greatly appreciated and loved
4:03 - Hello there, Tuxedo Junction!
2:32 - that triplet fill was so cool omg O_o

brings me back to my childhood and when I used to play in jazz band throughout HS. I miss it dearly. This is absolutely amazing. Great Stuff.
I absolutely love Carlos’s face when he pay bass!! It’s perfection 👌
Relistening to this, I remember being so happy when you released this! For a long time I've been looking for a jazz cover of my favorite city theme in all of Sinnoh and I'm so glad you did!
Your multi-instrumental abilities amazed me. Basie and Nestico would be proud.
Transcribing that tenor solo right away!
WOAHHH CARLOS ON THE GRIND!!
P.S I sleep to your music all the time and my jazz teacher loves your eterna forest and showed it to my jazz band as an example for balance and sound. Your music is amazing keep it up.
Wait... at about 4:10, was that a Night Train quote?! (I can't believe I didn't catch that until now...)
Quite impressive how you made this sound with all the people not being in the same room at the same time playing this
When I first heard this songs jazzy vibe I immediately thought “when is carlos gonna cover this?” THANK YOU FOR MAKING MY DAY
I just had to get the right people together to make it happen!!!!
Basie Big Band is one of my favorite albums of all time! You and your collaborators absolutely nailed that sound and I love it so much
An upload just as I replayed Sinnoh!!! Good stuff!!!
I had no clue about that Maylene pun, holy Arceus
Gosh, I remember asking for Veilstone years back on your Jubilife City arrangement. This makes my day!
I have been waiting for an arrangement like this all my life.
Just thank you
I love the smooth transitions between the written and improvised improvised parts. You really nailed the 50-60's jazz feel with this cover!
I really dig this as a big band arrangement! All the horn players have an amazing sound! The solos were awesome too! Swing on!
Playing the Basie piano lick twice in the same tune? BOLD!
Can't wait for Looker's Theme! By far one of my faves from Gen 4!
Dang. Your mixing and editing are getting better every video. It sounds so good!
Ok as a huge sucker for big band I am just at a loss for words
So good wow. Please do more big band arrangements like this!
You are incredibly amazing, seriously, every Sinnoh arrangement I listen from you is a masterpiece
The Veil has been lifted on another Sinnoh masterpiece. With Sinnoh pieces winding down, there are few Stone left unturned...or songs unremixed XD
WOOO CARLOS YOURE AMAZING BRO ✊🏽
I enjoyed Veilstone the most out of almost every other city. Not only for the music or the game corner, but because the gym was the first one to ACTUALLY be a gym.

Dude this rocks!!! This is what I would imagine Veilstone City would sound like if it were remastered!!
Does anyone else notice the Discord message pop sound at 5:43? It seems to me like it snuck into the big finale.
This literally moved me to tears. Thank you for doing it flawlessly
Best city theme in Sinnoh for sure.
How do you keep doing that! I turn my back for one second and BOOM! Another amazing remix for me to be practicing on my horn at home!
Nothing gets me more than a good bari sax/bass trombone soli. Loving these big band collabs!!
Totally agree! Happy to have access to both :)
3:20 I love this moment so much. Thanks Zorsy!
Definitely one of my favourite city themes, and this is a fantastic cover!
Brings me back to those times I went to Veilstone to listen to that song and just have a good time.

Thank you! I try to make these arrangements good enough for those who have no experience with the games to at least be able to enjoy the music :)
God, I'm SO hyped for the year of Sinnoh!
Me too! Some great tracks remaining :)
thank you so much for not missing out on the basie ending. absolute classic. love it.
Thank you for bringing this pal, let me tell you that as many I feel inspired for your job and the effort you put in all of what you do

If there's one Sinnoh song that was meant to be jazzy, it was this one. You sir, are a legend.
The groove is powerful. I love it
a good swing is one of the best feelings known to humans
Now I get it why Combee and Vespiquen were introduced in gen 4. The jazz in there is so abundant.
YES! From the moment you announced your Year of Sinnoh, I was just waiting for you to do this track. And you did not disappoint. This is fantastic!
Love it! Super jazzy!
