I was 14 in 1999 when this scene first aired on Toonami. A month earlier I had a diving accident that left me a near quadriplegic and was still in the hospital recovering and learning how to walk again. I would be in therapy for hours each day, but always made sure to watch DBZ. The day this episode aired, I had a really rough day and regressed a few steps in my physical therapy and I was extremely depressed. I just wanted to give up because it was so damned hard just to get up in the morning to go through hours of pain and not see any new results. I hit rock bottom that day during my hospital stay. Then this episode aired. It was everything about it - the music, the atmosphere, the agonized scream Goku gives when he pushes through - that just resonated with me and inspired me to keep going. I eventually did learn to walk again and had made a nearly complete recovery a year and a half later. I will always love DBZ and this theme in particular for giving me the strength to break through that wall over twenty years ago.
This is absolutely fucking beautiful my friend. I'm sorry I didn't notice this comment before, but I am super stoked and happy for you being able to walk again. Flex, walk, and dance like the absolute king you are
My dudes, ladies, lovers and friends, quick backstory on this track. I actually did this one during a really dark time during the pandemic. Cases were sky-rocketing and I wasn't able to see my friends. I was actually dealing with some dark personal stuff, and felt the most alone I ever felt in my entire life. To make things even worse, smack dab in the middle of this the love of my life got really sick which we thought was covid. She was in so much pain, she couldn't even muster a word and hard the hardest head-ache in her life. She couldn't say a word with tears running down her eyes and I felt absolutely helpless and like a failure as a man because I couldn't be there for her to help in the way she needed. Because I couldn't even be in the same room as her as she suffered. I'm literally in tears thinking about this fucking memory. So the eeries and darkness of the cello around the one minute is the expression of the fear and helpness that I felt. The emotions of the vocals is my sadness of feeling like a failure.. and the last aggressive dubstep part was my absolute frustration with the state of the world and this pandemic. Luckily she didn't have Covid and ended up being ok, but it was the time in my life I felt the biggest fear imaginable and and like might have lost the person most important to me. I love you all so much, thank you so much for listening. I'm rooting for you
Hey. I don't know if you remember me, but this track rocked. Worth every second of the long wait. Very very happy to know that more are on the way, especially ssj3 theme. It's my favourite dbz theme and I'm super excited for that. As always take your time and produce a master piece brother. Looking forward for your originals too. Thanks for this gem
@DDRMR Hey man, sorry to hear you haven't been doing so well, but I wanted to let you know I really like these Dragon Ball covers. Hope you end up feeling better, best of wishes to you!
My ultimate dream in life... is to condition my body to the point where I can use 100% of it with little effort. It's going to take a while, but so long as I have the motivation to do it, I'll get there.
Some of my friends ask me "Why is your favourite transformation of all times the og Super Saiyan?". And i tell them "If it weren't for the Super Saiyan, you wouldn't know what even is anime."
DBZ along with death note are unmatched, when it comes to music and they r the top 2 animes I guess, one punch man, naruto and one piece are overrated.
@@HammadKhan-tl6bbthis is a DBZ video, so why tf did you bring up the definition of overrated animes that is Death Note and try to say it’s on the same level as DBZ, followed by calling 3 animes that are also better than Death Note worse than it
Your DBZ covers are truly _unparalleled_ . Over the years I've listened to literally hundreds of DBZ covers and yours are simply on another level ( *way over 9000* ). I hope you get the recognition you deserve.
Honestly my DBZ covers seem to receive the most heartfelt comments like yours. And they far outweigh a mass number of views any day :) But my time is coming! No doubt there bro!
I miss you back bro, I've always been here but just really caught up with all my projects and worked on this so you guys all remember that you're everything to me and I appreciate you to hell
This sounds like it was made with anger and sadness in mind, this soundtrack has so much emotion, and thats what makes this perfect, keep up the good work, i love this stuff.
Ngl, looking back again at this comment made me fuckin cry. Do take a look at my pinned comment please. Every time I listen to this track it takes ma back and breaks me down
@@DDRMRalso, you are a really cool guy, I like the vocals you add into your songs, especially this one and Gohan's Anger, also, is that Namek in the background?
This is a very different approach.. And to such an extend it litterly blew all my expectations out the window and recreated the feeling the original did back in the day. It feels good to be able to say you felt a special kind of feeling about something so cool twice in your life. Good work man as always💪🏻
Thank you so much brother. My greatest pride with my DBZ covers is how I can literally make them my own original tracks yet invoke the exact same feeling as the OG Faulconer tune because I was always just as big a fan of them as the people I do these for
Thank you so so so much, you have no idea how much comments like this mean to me brother. Listening to this is very bittersweet, because I'm so godamn proud of it but it does absolutely remind me of all the pain and frustration I had to go through in the last few months of 2020
This actually sounds so good, the beginning reminds me of Goku telling Gohan to escape with Piccolo, and when the beat drop, it's when goku confronts frieza, and at the end, it's namek exploding. It's just the vibe I got from this song
In a Cyberpunk world, Goku is forced to transform, unlashing the legendary power of the super saiyan to challenge an unfamiliar threat. Will he be able to overcome this mechanical madness? Give it everything you have Goku, help is on the way!! (shows Neo flying towards his direction) FIND OUT NEXT TIME ON DRAGON BALL DS!!!
Holy sweet mother of God!!!! What did I just listen to with my eardrums?!?!? This absolutely punched in the face is the best way possible hahaha This was insane and I’m pretty sure you’re a god 😌
Every single remix is such an emotional power punch. I've never felt closer to the epicness of Bruce's themes as I do hearing these tracks. I dare say you've ascended even further beyond. Keep up the stellar work, I'm loving every second of it!!
Thank you so much family. This is literally the feeling I wish to invoke as I'm JUST as much of a fan of the themes I cover as the listeners are (hence why I can't pump out the new hot thing every week)
I have been keeping up with this track’s progress on your Instagram since the past few months, and now that it’s finally complete and here, I must say I feel very proud. Exceeded my expectations, amazing dude 👏🔥
My man I super appreciate you. I wish everyone who discovered me through Vegeta and was blown away would take the moment to check out this one and Gohan cause I consider them even better but haven't caught the same traction quite yet
This is very very good if this is this good please do a super saiyan 3 goku theme because I am sure it will be as good as your ssj vegeta and ssj 2 gohan Because you have gone beyond my expectations in every way
@@DDRMR oh my god I'm so glad you remember royal blue Vegeta / the genke dama theme. It's probably my favorite music next to limit break x survivor and the ultra instinct theme. So I really can't wait to see your take on it!
Holy hell this is so good dude. You especially killed it on the production and mixing! I could easily imagine hearing this used in a Dragonball trailer or promo. You gotta make an SSJ Goku trailer based of this, it’s too perfectly fitting for one!
This song hypes me up so much I'll end up roaring so loud from the hypeness and euphoria I feel I also listen to this alot when I work out in the gym I'm banned from 59 gyms so far
I really, REALLY love most of this track. More specifically, I love the softer choir stuff, the more emotional stuff like what is at the beginning and the end. I'd kill for a softer version of this, like a track that was more focused on Goku's sorrow rather than his fury. Overall, love the track though.
Amazed these all don't have more views. All of your covers are truly incredible. I wish you'd get hired to score one of the newer Dragon Ball movies coming out. Man. Thanks so much for sharing these. DBZ was a huge part of my childhood and it's funny I'm having a resurgence of interest as I'm going into my mid 30's. This is a real breath of fresh air. It's helping me right now to get through a really difficult job I'm working on for someone. Really inspiring, and also, as a fellow musician (guitarist), I can appreciate the insane level of skill and attention it takes to produce something so intricate. Your attention to nuance is astounding, this truly sounds like an actual professional score for a movie that should be heard around the world.
This absolutely rips! I remember I found you after searching years for the "best" Vegeta SSJ mix. Found yours and stopped searching entirely. Glad to see you still creating; you're the best in class at what you do, imo. And that's saying something given all the DBZ/Faulconer mixes out there! Keep it up! Can't wait to hear the next one!
My fucking pleasure Kyle! Thank you for sticking by me. My lack of overly regular uploads is mainly due to my focus on original music and the extra time I put into my DBZ stuff so I hugely love peeps like you appreciating my work
@@DDRMR By the way,were you inspired by Enigma TNG,specifically his "Saiyan Enigma" channel? I'm asking this because the choir and pace of your SSJ Goku theme remix looks like a modernized version of the style of Enigma TNG
@@gabry2328 believe it or not, no! I only was inspired by Freidrich to decide to do Gohan SSJ2 and Goku SSJ3 because it let me see why people liked those themes so much. But style wise I just always did what I thought would emotionslly represent how I felt about said character and the first time I've heard the theme played in the anime.
Yeah if you read my pinned comment the song actually triggers me back to covid. It's like fear, frustration then a sense of sooth at the end. Thanks so much for showing love King ❤
Ура! Свершилось! Трек шикарный, динамичный и эпичный. Всё, как я и люблю. Прости, что сразу не посмотрел. Просто уже потерял тебя из виду. У самого много дел в колледже было во время пандемии. Тему Гохана, кстати, постоянно заново прослушиваю. Всего наилучшего!
