- This has been my most requested track and I've finally remade it!
Thanks to @genetic_lemon , @darthsensei3838 , @Eliminator1900 , @red6309 , @phrack8327 , @sammyfromdiscord , @Jensen89NL , @Ogre32890 , @StoicProdigy , @TJBPlays for all requesting this awesome track.
This is one of the pieces that is so special it's hard to know what to say about it, especially since we only hear it a handful of times in DBZ. I wanted to do my best to stay as faithful as possible to the instrumentation & arrangement while elevating it as much as I could. Pikkon is an awesome character and while he isn't officially canon and has inspired the creation of and been replaced by Hit in DB Super who shares a similar archetype, his presence certainly impacted me and the DBZ community enough to never forget him. That said, I think most of that impact is caused by his theme, which is one of the most unique pieces of music in the entire DBZ soundtrack.
Please enjoy!

Wow great job!!! I don't think anyone has ever covered the slow section at the end before. I love that you did that!
It’s a huge honor to have you comment on my remake of your track!! Thank you! I really loved everything about this piece including the slow section, it’s got so much feeling in it, it’s hard to describe. I don’t know how you came up with any of it. You’re a bloody legend man! 🙏
Really bummed we never got this guy recruited for the Tournament of Power
Exactly, the tournament would’ve been better with Pikkon and Majin Buu instead of Tien and Roshi.
Sadly Pikkon isn't cannon. Though I do feel like they should do an otherworld arc to make him and janemba cannon in super.
@@jessb8585I like Roshi being in TOP even though his time has kinda passed and he already planned on passing his role down to Tien… like 10 arcs ago but…
Regardless, they definitely had more options that would’ve been fun, like Yamcha, who despite not training for a while WAS one of the OG Z fighters so he deserves a spot. Even though realistically he would’ve lost very early, the manga lets this truth down hard by eliminating all the humans in the saddest and quickest ways imaginable.
Also future trunks, not sure if he’d be allowed in but having him would’ve been badass as hell too.
Additionally, Buu, particularly fit Buu would’ve been wayyy too op 😂 especially as a healer. He still got hoed though.
Surprised he didn’t go to cell first though, he’s a much more reasonable guy than Frieza lol
@@CS-om3kj I agree with everything you said except that I don’t think Yamcha deserved a spot. No human should have been on that team except 17 and 18. Are they considered humans? 🤣 Cell would have been a great addition and Fit Buu would have been too much but Jiren and his crew were OP so it balances out imo.
This is one of the few themes in the series that could rival Vegetas. This man also had one of the absolute most epic introductions into the series when he pretty much laid waste to all of Goku's enemies without breaking a sweat. They really need to make this guy canon and maybe even bring him back to life and into the Z fighter gang.
Hah when you put it like that, him taking out Goku’s enemies so easily it did make him look next level, definitely stronger than SSJ2. That would be awesome if they brought him back to life some and made him a part of the team
@@GladiusThemes Right?
This theme is so Awesome and Powerful 😊
@@GladiusThemesI'd love too see Pikon wished back
I feel like "goku battles" is up there too
Seeing pikkon against goku while this theme was playing for the first time was incredible. I wish I could experience that feeling again
I agree! Such a cool saga :) I’m gonna watch it again
They seriously gave a filler character one of the best themes in the entire series. Such an absolute banger of a track.
Right!? In a way it made it even more special that we only heard it a few times. Such a banger indeed :)
in no way is he filler, without him, there wouldn't be a ssj3
@@creekninjaHe is a filler character for the anime not created by Toriyama. He doesn't have snything to do with Goku unlocking SSJ3
@@Neo-Midgar actually he does because goku says it himself 🤣😂🤣😂 without fighting in the underworld tournament, against pikon, he wouldn’t have even unlocked ssj3 let alone trying to figure how to use it after.
@@Neo-Midgar ITS A CANNON EVENT!!!!!! 😡
Crazy that Falconer made such a banger theme for a filler character. Such a banger, that he reused it for the Goku vs Majin Vegeta fight when they’re smashing their heads together.
Bruce didn’t write this particular one; it was someone from his team, Scott Morgan- but I agree, what a crazy theme only to be used a few times 🙏 definitely left an impact on us DBZ fans
The legendary pikkon theme 💪
It truly is legendary ☺️☺️
1:12 always manages to give me chills, easily has to be one of the best soundtracks in all of anime. Scott is a genius
I agree!! And Scott is a legend 😭
I forgot how much scorching heat pikkons theme had
Scorching indeed!! 🔥 one of the best
This man showed up for a few filler episodes but had one of the best themes in the entire series
His theme slaps like nobodies business!
This theme matched Pikkons vibe to a T! Cosmic, Mysterious, and Powerful when it needs to be.
I hope they bring him back in super somehow
That would be cool 😎 thanks for listening!
Great tribute to Scott's work!
Thank you! He made something truly special 👍
Incredible track. Cant stop listening.
One of the coolest DBZ tracks! 🙏
Pikkon's theme has always been one of the coldest tracks of the show, but you made even better than it already was. Well done man, you earned a follow.
I agree, it’s crazy :) thank you man and I really appreciate you subscribing!!
Been waiting for this absolute banger.
Been looking forward to sharing it with you! :)
Damn bro. This is lit! Love it
Absolutely amazing
YESSSSSSSSSSSSS
Yeeeessss it’s here 😁
Great remix and interpretation. Especially love the chugging guitars when the beat builds up.
You have a great ear for music.
Subscribed. Can't wait to hear the rest of the DBZ soundtracks you remixed. Great job 👏👏
Thank you dearly for subscribing 💜 I’m glad you enjoyed my rendition! Be sure to check out the making of if you haven’t already! Also, I couldn’t resist putting in the chuggy guitars 😅
His fight with Goku was legendary!
That’s really cool that you gave Scott Morgan credit
Of course, it’s his work after all ☺️ he’s also been very gracious & supportive of me, him and Julius 🙏
Aye you finally did it! And it's great!!!
I sure did!! Thank you and thanks for the suggestion!! ☺️
And of course the remaster soundtrack is amazing thx
Thank you!! You’re welcome ☺️
Glorious
🙏
The legend is back, sounds incredible as usual 😁👍🏻
Ahh ☺️ thank you my friend! Glad you enjoyed it
This is incredible, you do not disappoint! This is now my go to Pikkon theme, please carry on covering these 🙌👏
Thank you for making this suggestion!! It’s such an awesome track :) ah I am honoured! Will do ☺️ more coming!
your DBZ theme remakes are INCREDIBLE! so glad baris sent me here, i think i love these more than the original lmaoo. Great work!
Baris is the man! And thank you very much ☺️ glad you like em!
Okay, this is absolutely incredible. Holy shit!
1:13
Even in this remix, I can still hear "Edgar Winter - Frankenstein".
Nevertheless, this is an awesome remix. All the power to you, Gladius.
"hehehehe, you can pull any trick you like. But it will only delay the inevitable."
Didn't skip a beat. You sir are a genious! ❤
Awesome channel man
More people need to know about this absolute gold.
They played this theme when it was goten vs trunks which imo was a severely underrated fight, the crowds reaction alone to kids fighting like that, and the crews reaction to them going ssj just so good 👌
I literally cannot rewatch dbz without the faulconer score. Rip funimation and everyone who doesnt have the og dvds/blue ray
Pikuhan!
Yeahhhhh buddy!!!!
Awesome! I love it! 😄
One of the few themes I regularly listen to, when I am doing my workout.
You are the best!! ✌
01:06 - 🔥
03:38 - Magical ✨
Yeaaah!! I’m glad you love it! Go get it 💪
Thanks for suggesting ☺️
The synth is so clean
So sick!
Absolute masterpiece needs more views❤
Thank you 🙏 hopefully more people see it!
You are the BEST! Thank you so much! This is one of my faves. I really thought at one point at the end it was going to gokus spirit bomb 😂
Aw you’re very welcome! Thanks again for the recommendation! One of my faves too. Ah yes I’ve been afraid to do Spirit Bomb theme because it’s already so perfect but should I also add that to the list? 😉
@@GladiusThemes definitely! The original recording actually fades into super namak. That was always one of my favorite things about the music from that show, lots of motif.
@@darthsensei3838 ah that’s so cool! Yeah they blended everything so well, especially considering they had to have music going pretty much the entire time lol
@@GladiusThemes a lot of depth for a cartoon. Same with Batman and Superman the animated series from the 90s. The music had NO business being that good. You wanna put a good one on your list, the theme from the NEW Batman and Superman adventures. I think that would be something I haven’t seen done.
So good.
🙏
Phenomenal!!
Thank you man!! 🙏🙏
Thank you for this! Unreal acoustics.
You’re welcome!!
brilliant masterpiece. best thing since the original!
Thank you man!! It was a pleasure to recreate ☺️
My absolute favorite character
Great to listen to the finished product after "the making of video". Keep on with the epic tracking and we can never have too many videos 💜💜💜
Breathtaking!
NOW THIS is how you make a remix for pikkons theme. Great work Gladius. The bass drum and guitar notes sound perfect
Thank you!! I worked hard on it. Check out my making of Pikkons theme video on my channel if you wanna see how I put it together :)
@@GladiusThemes cool ill check it out
wow this is amazing, this is one of my all time favorite themes and you made it so much better, thank you!
Thank you sir! This is one of the most unique themes in DBZ, I love it too ☺️
Sounds awesome! One of my favorite tracks!
Thanks! Mine too!!
This filler character showed up out of nowhere, drop-kicked Perfect Cell in the face, slapped Frieza unconscious, and made King Cold moan with a gut punch for some reason while the best theme ever played. He deserves to be canon.
The ending gives me always chills
2:41 This part of the track is sooo cool! My favorite personally.
Awesome job with this!
I really like that part too :) was fun to make. If you haven’t already checked it out, there’s a making of for this track on my channel if you’re interested in that kind of stuff!
@@GladiusThemes Thank you! I will see it for sure.
This is also the part where ssj 2 goku vs majin ssj2 vegeta talk about why vegeta wanted to closed the gap in power
I use this track when I'm at the gym doing some really heavy lifting
Keep up the good work!
I really love your work!
That’s a good time to be using it!
Thank you man ☺️
Now this is real entertainment never mind Netflix or Disney plus LETS GO DRAGON BALL Z!!!!
Oh, Pull yourself together Pikkon!
Atta boy Goku! Push him right out!
For those of you who haven’t seen this yet, this is my video walkthrough of how I remade Pikkon’s Theme, enjoy: ruclips.net/video/pAtnxLGAC4E/видео.html
“Pikkon… he moves… so fast!”
The day you get let on to Spotify will be a good day, indeed, my friend.
Definitely looking into it ☺️
Amazing ❤ I've always loved Pikkon as he destroyed Super Perfect Cell in 2 hits and pushed SSJ Goku to use kaioken
Thunder Flash, Hyper Tornado were awesome attacks. Always playing as him in the DBZ games and always listening to his theme in the background. Thx so much for this banger of a music ! He's the real hero of the otherworld !
He’s such a cool character with one of the best theme music pieces! You’re welcome. Thank you for listening!!
As a kid you grew up watching the other world tournament on toonami this is 🔥🔥🔥
That’s correct 👍 what a time, wish I could go back for a while and experience it again
This piece of music was so good, they put it with Trucks and Goten's fight in the World tournament in Dragon Ball Z. It's a kind of sound that mesmerize you.
Yesss I remember fondly when they used it in Goten vs Trunks :) really brings a seriousness to the fight that the audience is witnessing- they’ve never seen anything like it til this moment
And piccolo flying to Vegeta sacrifice ground zero 👍
This is amazing
THIS IS SOOOOOO INCREDIBLE! Just wow!
DAMN! I like this🙌
Amazing Job Brother 💯
1:06 and 1:49 had me hyped 🔥
Thank you man and thanks for recommending it! ☺️ glad it got you hyped 🔥
Best theme in DBZ, definitely an awesome rendition
It’s so unique, even if it wasn’t in DBZ. Thank you 🙏☺️
Good work keep it up 👏
Love ur channel bro
I wish this music was used more in the series, it's so freaking awesome.
And you just took it to S Class level 🙌. That ending is 🔥
I agree it’s so cool and unique. It was an S Rank mission!! 😁😁
They used it also when Goten fought Trunks
Amazing
Maybe next video could include the making of the artwork 💜💜💜
Bro this thing slaps. It'll never replace the nostalgia of the original, but this thing is great in of itself.
Thanks bro ☺️
When he zooms in and falcon kicks Cell, lol.
Very similar to original theme but you have A better quality. I hear difference between original and the same Time i some regrets Then dont used to your Version in DB. Original version Sounds like A demo version and your Its Full power ;) 10/10
The original is so good I obviously can’t take credit for anything but I accept your compliment for my version :) to be fair, it seems like the composers were limited by the sound palette they chose for the entire show and had to work within the boundaries they had set for themselves. I like to think my remakes are like when the elder Kai unleashed Gohans potential but with music 😅
I knew this was one of Scott Morgan's themes because on Enigma TNG's "Saiyan Enigma" channel he composed a theme for Golden Frieza. At the start of the video Enigma mentioned Scott Morgan made a video explaining who the composers for the American DBZ soundtrack were. In the background Scott's fiddling with a synth keyboard and at some point he plays a melody similar to 3:37- 3:56
And when I heard that it dawned on me that he composed Pikkon's theme.
On an unrelated note it's official that the transition from living with my parents to living on my own has racked my brain as I've been waxing nostalgic about many things for about two weeks now. And listening to this has somehow triggered memories of playing Digimon World as I had an Agumon I named "Pikkon" that evolved into a Tyrranamon. Didn't help that he beat Greymon and partook in some of Greymon's tournament bouts in File City.
Oh, this is going straight in my training mix...
💪 good to hear!
Also used for Ssj2 Spirit Goku vs Ssj2 Majin Vegeta such a banger
That’s right :)
Gotta be honest, definitely thought about it from an alien perspective. We seem so ridiculous.
What made you think that? :)
GOTENKS IS BORN next!
I have a few others to get through first but I’ll get there 😉
Imagine my shock...
The show introducing this character was the funniest thing the series ever did, and it was filler. Completely unprompted Grand Kai says "Hey Pikkon, I need you to go straight to hell for me" and I laughed so hard my stomach hurt
Considering Pikkon is a filler character he has an incredible theme. It’s top 3 for me, only SSJ3 and Gohan Powers Up being better imo. This remix is sick
It’s crazy how he’s filler haha
Thank you man!! ☺️
Why was this theme playing in my head when goku fought hit 🤔
Scoot Morgan Mike Smith ❤❤❤❤❤
Wasit pikkon's terbaik forever🌈
I mean if you like it it means appart of you likes metal.
You’re not wrong ;) I grew up listening to metal and played in rock bands so it has definitely influenced the music I made later in life.
@@GladiusThemes definitely. That intensity it captures. Makes you want to feel it all the time. Vegoto vs jenemba also metal af. Z broly movie had straight up pantera in it.
If they sent Pikon to namek he would massacre frieza and everyone els.he would fit right in with piccolo too.😊
Forgot to mention ,this is a really good remix! SO DOPE!
A damn shame he wasn’t in Super
I wonder how Battle Point Unlimited would sound but, well... it's BP so...
Man, that’s such a great idea, I hadn’t thought about doing that one. I’m gonna add it to the list. Such a groovy track
@@GladiusThemes Might also want to reference the Propaganda songs from A Secret Wish that the track mostly cribbed from :p
Hey Bro, love you work. I would really be happy if you re-did the rick and morty main theme (i already watched your cover and It Is amazing, really). Mind doing another, maybe in another style?
Thank you man :) I wasn’t planning on doing any more Rick and morty but I could consider it. What kind of style did you have in mind?
@@GladiusThemes jazz like, but more of an epic-energic one, maybe adding new notes and sections. Or, as weird as it may sound, a bruce falcouner style!
so uh... can I use this track lol?
Uhh… of course 😁 so long as you credit me!
@@GladiusThemes absolutely! Idk what id with it but its an incredible track and I wanna use it for something lol
