Pokémon Diamond / Pearl: Route 225 - Jazz / 80's Cover || insaneintherainmusic

Arguably the best postgame music in any Pokémon game ever. Love me some 80's vibes. Insaneintherainmusic's jazz cover / remix of Route 225 (Day) from Pokémon Diamond / Pearl / Platinum, featuring Doug Perry on Vibes, Anthony on Bass & Sammy (Spiro) Dussias on the guitar solo at the end!

What a fantastic tune. This is one of the grooviest tunes in all of the Gen 4 soundtrack, and definitely makes my top 5 tunes of the soundtrack. You guys know how much I love Pokémon Diamond & Pearl's music, so me saying that means quite a bit! This route was a great way to kick off the postgame in Diamond and Pearl. If Game Freak had simply chosen to recycle a route theme from a past region, I don't think this route would have the same impact. Also, those claps. THOSE CLAPS. 👏 👏

After my previous experiment with 80's covers in the form of Big Blue, I thought this song would be the next best fit. This song is oddly reminiscent of Van Halen's "Jump", which features some sick synth brass parts. I aimed to incorporate those into this song, along with some influence from "Trains" by the fusion group Steps Ahead, which was led by one of my favorite sax players of all time: Michael Brecker.

I make jazz covers & remixes of video game music every other Saturday at 12:30 PM EST on my channel! My channel combines my loves of jazz and video game music, creating covers and remixes you'll enjoy.
