Pokémon DPPt: Sinnoh Trainer Battle Medley || insaneintherainmusic (Sinnoh Fusion Ensemble)

When you lock eyes with another trainer in Sinnoh, there’s only one thing that can happen. You must… dance to the groovy music of the trainer encounter themes! And then you fight. And then you (hopefully) win! Insaneintherainmusic's jazz arrangement of Sinnoh Trainer Battle themes, including "Trainer's Eyes Meet (Ace Trainer)", "Battle! (Trainer Battle)", and "Victory! (Trainer Battle)", performed by the Sinnoh Fusion Ensemble!

When you lock eyes with another trainer in Sinnoh, there’s only one thing that can happen. You must… dance to the groovy music of the trainer encounter themes! And then you fight. And then you (hopefully) win.

If you’ve played Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, or Platinum, you have heard this song so many times. Perhaps hundreds of times if you frequented places like the Battle Tower or the Battle Frontier! Sinnoh’s battle themes are some of my favorite in the entire Pokémon series, and they certainly have that sort of “Masuda magic” to them.

This may surprise you, but Battle themes have actually been some of the hardest tunes for me to cover. Because of the way that Junichi Masuda’s writing is extremely melodic and not super harmonically intricate, I’ve had a hard time adding my own spin onto his music. When I was presented with the opportunity to write something for this bunch of musicians in the Sinnoh Fusion Ensemble, though, I knew this would be a great opportunity to take on one of the battle themes I’ve most wanted to cover but had the hardest time figuring out how I wanted to: the Trainer Battle theme! Similar to what I did on my previous Pokémon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald album, I added in one of my favorite trainer encounter themes in the beginning, and also added the Victory theme at the end!

To beef up the arrangement a bit, I decided to add two really big solo spots. The first is a huge violin shred feature for one of my best friends at Berklee, Emily Gelineau! She appeared in my Wii Music video, and is back as part of the Sinnoh Fusion Ensemble on electric violin, which adds such a nice top end texture to the band! She has a gargantuan shred solo smack dab in the middle of this tune, and absolutely nails it! The second solo spot is a “percussion battle” between percussionist Ricky Matute and drummer Francis Peña. I know that these dudes are super bros so I wanted to try and pit them against each other in a crazy rhythmic battle to see what would happen! Thematically, I think this section is super cool, since, you know… this song is a trainer battle theme, and dueling solos are essentially the musical equivalent to a trainer battle!

I hope you dig this new, aggressive arrangement from the Sinnoh Fusion Ensemble! Lots more to come in the future!
