*Hey* First of all, THANKS FOR 600 SUBSCRIBERS!!! Second of all, Kid Icarus Uprising turns ten years old on Tuesday. Also, here's a playlist of KIU arranged tracks that AC made a while back. They're pretty great remixes! ruclips.net/p/PLMaBaA5FZud5rYZbasJCs-3exo03tn6nJ
Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon does stuff like Leitmotifs as well. For example, Welcome to the Alola Region's melody is repurposed for Mount Lanakila. Representing how far you've come as a Trainer. I'm super glad I caught this the second time around playing Ultra Moon as this makes the experience so much better.
Honestly I got chills several times during this video. It's been some time since I've played through KI:U, but I listen to the soundtrack often. This was a powerful reminder of why I love this soundtrack so much. The amount of effort put into the soundtrack alone (and not even for a console title!) is jaw-dropping.
I love how you mentioned Jojo for TV OST because it married sound design with the current tone of a scene or character so well. Also my favourite music track from my favourite game is Aurum Island, Yuzo Koshiro went hard when he made Streets of Rage transition to big band.
Yeah, Aurum Island is great. It is more acid jazz like I said, but technically big band is also a form of jazz, so in the end it doesn't matter much. I really need to play Streets of Rage at some point in the future.
@@JonathanFrostathan I wasn’t sure, some referred to it insisting its big band. And I kind of associated the style of Acid Jazz with the type of music Persona 5 had, which sounds different enough.
@@corrinflakes9659 Acid jazz incorporates elements of funk, soul, and hip hop music, whereas big band is literally jazz with a lot of instruments (usually a minimum of 10 instruments plus a rhythm sections). I can't speak for what genre Streets of Rage is but I know that Aurum Island is acid jazz because it has a funk-type drum beat and the electronic instruments are a lot like the electronic instruments used in hip hop. Also Persona 5 is not acid jazz at all lol. There might be some soul influence here and there in a few songs (I don't quite remember), but otherwise P5's soundtrack is pretty standard jazz.
@@JonathanFrostathan that’s how I got in to Pokémon and that’s the thing I like from Pokémon now days that is not the games I thought you would like it too and ash is better than red and team rocket to they are just better in the anime.

This video is so underrated it makes me sad. More people should be talking about this soundtrack.
Fantastic video. I love seeing people talk about this game, and specially it's wonderful soundtrack.

Leitmotifs in games are the best, aren't they?
This came out so great! Thanks for having me on!
Anytime. ;)

That's what happens when you get godlike composers such as Mitsuda and Sakuraba to touch a soundtrack!

@@JonathanFrostathan I've been misinformed by the internet when looking up genres of VGM. :(
Thanks for correction.
WHY IS THIS SO UNDERRATED
What do you think of the Pokémon anime
Never seen it and don't intend to see it. Why do you ask?
