I never noticed how complex this music really is. I mainly remember the one-two and three bulbs themes. Its honestly really interesting that they made it this dynamic for a fight that usually doesn't take you that long. My guess is that they did this to make it so you never felt comfortable in there as the constantly changing music makes everything feel new and unknown.
@Seven&Zmoore Do not even turn on any of the light bulbs except for the tutorial one at the cave entrance. Just start building the bridge over to the big one. Turn on the big one only, so the Vehemoth Phosbat can always be attacked, without triggering the Phosbat Pods.
whenever the phosbat is near but you're in light, the music from being in light drowns out the phosbat's presence, which is really neat as even this implies that even while it is near, it won't do anything to you
11:36 I could have this on repeat ALL DAY. Something about it makes me like it so much. I like how they were able to keep the Pikmin vibe while making it somewhat eerie.
I love when all of the instruments come in after the entire cave is lit up, as if it’s the sounds of the panicking phosbat’s brain as it tries to comprehend the extreme light while still trying to devour the pikmin in front of it. It’s that perfect mix of the soft and unnerving track turning into a bombastic symphony and the eerie nature of the instruments turned almost triumphant that makes the final charge on the phosbat so satisfying in my books.
I love how the Double Bass, Cellos and Tubas all get a solo together at 2:52 , 3:35 , 5:45 , 6:28 , 8:38 , and 9:21 ! It really sells the gravity and eeriness of the intense atmosphere! The Tubas and the brass section really start belting out the notes at 11:36 , while the timpani starts hammering out the driving percussion! All and all, a really unique adaptive piece with incredibly engaging and driving bits! Note: The Celeste detune slides at the bridge(s) of the song at 12:03 and 12:59 along with the tension building drumline really build unease and the hurriedness and panic-driven actions of the player as well!
Its such a nice detail how the music goes along with the gameplay When youre in the dark, you barely hear any music, as you dont know the Phosbat's prescence, when you do know it. The instruments start adding up And when youre in the light, its almost like a lullaby making you want to stay in the light And when you turn the last bulb, the Phosbat starts panicking and does anything to turn the fight on you, even though it probably knows its futile. It tries it's best to escape and defend itself as the predator becomes the prey
Thank you so much for putting all those pieces of music together for us! Nowhere else have I heard such complete versions of the Pikmin 3 soundtrack here on youtube than with your channel - and I've been looking for that ever since Pikmin 3 came out in 2013 🙏🏾
This is the most complex pikmin song ever. With the happy jingle in the light and dangerous sounds when the phosbat is near. Pikmin 2 also had complex music with olimar and louie differences and health
As much as I love how you did this, as this is my favorite song in the game, you kinda got the layering wrong. When you’re in the light, and the phosbat is far away, the light and dark melodys play together, then when the phosbat is close the dark melody is overtaken by the percussion. In addition, if you’re in the dark and the phosbat is nearby, wether or not it’s chasing you, the percussion completely takes over, basically as a warning that it is about to attack. That being said, the fact that you’ve gotten the melodies in the right order, and that you’ve compiled everything at all is worth major respect.
Thank you so much for your comment. This one was a beast to organize and string together, and admittedly I've always been confused by it. I will revisit it in-game and take what you've said into consideration. If a new version is necessary (as it sounds like it might be), I will recreate it. Thanks again. ^^
Hey there! I know it’s been a while since we talked about this, but I would really like to see a revised cover of this song. I’m not really sure if you’re working on it right now or not, but just know I’m willing to wait until the final product is done. Even without it, You’re a legend for uploading these adaptive tracks, and I can’t thank you enough for them.
@@magolor8105 I am embarrassed this has fallen so far on the backburner... Sorry for the delay. I do intend to revisit this soon, I've just been busy with other gigs.
I remember doing this fight as a kid, I just spammed pikmins to the air with no thought into it...Yeah I reached extinction that day. I really love to visit back the soundtrack this game has to offer. At first it's not like much...But when you REALLY give it a chance, it shines.
It just makes you wonder why this boss was so different from the others, I mean it has a different song and boss defeated sequence! This was one of my favorite bosses.
I'm kind of surprised this fight didn't give me nightmares, I first played Pikmin 3 before hitting double digits and I'm afraid of the dark. This really tops it off. Incredible soundtrack, though! They knew what they were going for and by gosh did they accomplish it. Thanks for the video!
Ok, I've destroyed all of the phosbat spwaners, it should be safe to turn on the second light now. Awesome! I just did a lot of damage to the Vehemoth, now if I could just rake these bridge peices and use them to- OH GOD, WHY IS MY SQUAD COUNT GOING DOWN? NONONONO MY NO DEATHS RUN IS RUINED!
When I replayed the game I maxed out the volume on my game pad to hear all the music. This was really nice to hear all the ins and outs while playing and fighting it
Listening to this on half speed is so creepy. The track already makes the phosbat feel like an ominous lurker, but 0.5x speed is straight up unsettling. EDIT: typo
@@olimar12345 oh, kinda late response here, but just in case if you're not aware already, I've recently found out that the "Menu Open" part of the main boss theme plays when the scornet maestro is using its "Mouth harp" to command the scornets.
@@parakeeter5370 I just did that and was so confused I speedrunned the first two bossfights on the first two days not on purpose, but my first playthrough was a refresher, and I wanted to get more fruit the second time. I was really confused when the phosbat crashed into the light while it was off!
I did it by complete accident, I knew the normal way to defeat the boss was to turn on thr big bulb, but when I defeated it sooner, I was very confused.
Normaly you almost never hear the: In the Dark versions of the Track, since you mostly never going to spend that much time in the Dark (Unless youre a NightMan). And honestly, can you blame them?
Yeah lol Whenever it’s nearby and you’re not around a light source, it’ll temporarily come into view and start sucking up Pikmin. If you don’t call them back fast enough, or don’t make the Phosbat flinch, your Pikmin will die.
It really gives off the vibes of "something is with you here, and its not friendly."
The light bulb with the wire to throw the Yellow Pikmin onto is, imo the best way to defeat the Vehemoth Phosbat

@Bon bon and gaming guru games unrelated but ok
I only knew the theme where the big bulb was on

Or because you're usually always in the light.
My headcanon is that you hear the drums when the phosbat is near because Charlie got bored and started beatboxing after being eaten earlier
Lol
Tbh i would too
I think it is actually supposed to represent him. It sounds a bit like his theme
Just got here from scruffy Chanel just wanted to say I really enjoyed the video you and him put together about Pikmin three music
I came from his channel too.
Same here! it was so great, I cant wait to watch more of your channel from now on

@@aubreyh1930 Definitely!
I dont understand A SHIT but it sounds good(is NOT your fault)
I love how well you compile these tracks, and even including chapters to signify when that part of the song plays.

Man, the amount of work that went into the music for this one boss encounter is insane.
I love how this theme is not a Vehemoth's theme, it's his cave's theme
me: hits my elbow on a table on accident
my entire nervous system: 10:47

More likely 11:32 - 13:31
13:28 fits more ngl especially with that buildup representing trying not to scream at the top of your lungs and failing

Pikmin 2 also had complex music with olimar and louie differences and health
I mean like they had procedurally generated music. That's really innovative and cool
Me: *goes straight for the large bulb*
Vehemoth phosbat: AYO THAT ISN’T HOW YOU PLAY THE GAME
ok but deadass
fun fact you can kill it with just the little lights on and its funny when it runs into a big dark lightbulb and dies
So true
I can't believe the Phosbat got the most swag beat to be it's theme
It's sad that this boss gets overlooked just because it has a skip you can use to beat it right away.
Scornet maestro needs to be overlooked as well
huh, never knew this theme had so many variations because i just threw my second captain across the bridge
*Me when my parents turn on the lights just as I wake up* 11:31
Void termina
You are phosbat
you get defeated and crash into a giant light bulb head first?
@@greg04958ah yes i also do that when the lights turn on when i wake up

I love the theme of when the phosbat is near!
Same, it sounds catchy and creepy
"Where are you, little pikmin? I'm coming to get you!"
I agree with scruffy. The Vehemoth Phosbat is my favorite creature in pikmin 3
Why can't all of them be anyone's favorites? I like all of them, except for the armored mawdad. I kinda find that boss lame
same
No same what do you think of a centipede stealing your skittles and just came out of nowhere
I love your videos, man! You deserve more subscribers.
Agreed!
Bro coming back to this two years later the beat is pretty sick ngl
I love how the big light bulb turning on is a corruption of the other boss battle intros!
10:47 ultimate mix
As a speedrunner this is my favorite part, chasing the behemoth Phosbat, well 3:35 plays it is so enjoyable.
Thanks for posting this captain.
Man, I never really get to hear most of this, since in game I usually just get a bridge big enough to activate the big bulb
the amount of layers this song has blew me away
Listening to this on half speed is so creepy. The track already makes the phosbat feel like an ominous lurker, but 0.5x speed is straight up unsettling.

This music slaps
I wouldn't mind a version of this with only the light/dark songs and the boss theme.
This is exactly what you described
@@RobertoDeMundo No, I mean just one or the other instead of both light and dark and then the final theme at the end.
It may not be my favorite to fight, but it's my favorite to litsen to. Definitely sets the scene incredibly well.
This track has a million parts
probably the only part of pikmin i'll find scary.
Surprising that there is so much to this theme, usually only get 1 Bulb on then the Big Light Bulb
Heard about you from scruffy
My favorite theme ever
10:53 my favorite part
thabks buddy, eventho i already have those files
I never noticed that this boss has different music ._.
i want that any bulbs on in the dark with the phosbat nearby on it's own
I only remember 1 & 2 light bulbs on in the dark
How has no one remixed the boss music for Pikmin 3? I can see the Big Light Vehemoth Phosbat theme getting a guitar arrangement
I beat this boss on a normal save file without turning on the big bulb
Is there really any difference between the 1-2, 3 and 4 bulbs in the dark themes? I don't hear any...
This track is delightfully creepy! It reminds me of Epic Mickey and a Tim Burton film!
How is so complex it shows how much Nintendo worked
phosbat cave but it gets more unnerving
I LOVE ADAPTIVE MUSIC
This is a sick beat
Yooo it's him, the legend, olimar 12345
In normal mode in Pikmin 3 deluxe, It is really easy to kill this boss without turning the big light on.
Me when the drum machine goes on:
Ooontz oontz bii boom pshh bwou bwou bwoubwou, bii boom pshh pshh
Why is that beat so phat
Is it possible to kill the vehemoth phosbat without killing it with the large bulb? I always thought of that...
It is possible, take a look at various speedruns, they take the Vehemoth Phosbat in less than 3 light bulbs
