The fall weather around this time of year always makes me think of Azalea Town's theme - such a beautiful and nostalgic piece of music! Insaneintherainmusic's jazz cover / remix of Azalea Town from Pokémon Gold & Silver / HeartGold & SoulSilver.

I believe that video game music is a hugely important part of many of our lives. To pay tribute to these fantastic compositions and their composers, I arrange their compositions in various jazz styles! I release video game jazz arrangements on this channel every other Saturday at 12:30 PM EST!

I really love the fall weather. There's nothing quite like walking outside on a brisk autumn day and letting the cool air hit your face. (I know that for my Southern Hemisphere viewers, it's actually spring now, but we'll disregard that for the moment...)

Lately, I've really been interested in making sure my music communicates some sort of emotion to the listener, since I think that's the most important quality of a good piece of music. Great pieces of music cause some sort of visceral / emotional reaction in the listener, and that's something I strive to achieve with my arrangements! To make that happen, I thought that tying a story to my music would be a good way to help people experience the emotions I'm trying to evoke here. As you listen to this, imagine walking along a path underneath some trees on a fall morning - that's the concept here.

Lots of musical things went into this arrangement, like really subtle time signature changes, and a lot of reharmonization! I'm currently taking a reharmonization class at Berklee, and I've learned so much about incorporating various types of substitution into my arrangements to change the meaning of a melody. Since many video game melodies are fairly simple and diatonic, there is so much room for reharmonization! I tried not to go over the top in this arrangement, and I think I succeeded in that in the end! I hope you enjoy this :D
