Remember, Plok is basically a genocidal maniac (wiped out the entire island's population of fleas) and, in all of the boss fights except the first one, he is the instigator, as indicated by the dialogue. In other words... this isn't the theme of the bosses, *this is Plok's theme*

[@firestone181]

Whenever I look at this video's image, I sometimes see Plok having two curling horns instead of that typical wisp-tail extending from his head, and now that I see this comment, I now *want* to see him like that

In the original game, the beat went so hard, Miyamoto thought they were hacking the console

[@phosgene_music_official]

wait what is that real? How did you hear about that lmao.

[@hauntedxd]

@@phosgene_music_official its just a rumour, (i think), but still, when you compare the music from literally everyone else this shit was pretty insane so i cant blame him for thinking it was modified. i honestly thought this was some modified audio chipset when i heard it the first time

[@FirelMusic]

People continue quoting this under BOSS but in reality, what fascinated Miyamoto so much is how realistic the other sounds were- particularly those in Plok's title screen. He didn't believe the console could produce such realistic sounds, sounding almost exactly like a real harmonica and guitar. Tim and Geoff had used simple wave synthesis to reconstruct the sounds from mixing the most basic waveforms, a square and sine. With only a physical analogue to work with and not able to fit so many audio samples to load into the console's memory, they effectively reconstructed the sounds of real instruments atom by atom. Which if you ask me? Is even more impressive.

[@plankton-sama260]

I really want to like this but the 666 likes just fits with the song so good

[@archive94]

​@@FirelMusicTim Follin also used his real guitar, recorded him playing on it, and reconstructed it in, explaining why many of the guitar solos and in-game guitar parts emulate a real fretboard closely.

[@abonne3154]

I cannot imagine the amount of effort this must have taken. Plok's Boss theme is one of those masterfully made tracks that's seemingly impossible to remix without sounding like a downgrade, akin to Super Mario Kart's Rainbow Road, or Chrono Trigger's Magus Battle. Every once in a great while, we're treated to a revision of these legendary tracks that rivals, and sometimes, even surpasses the original. This version of the track is easily the best mix I've heard I've heard, right alongside the original. That bass drop is rawer than a dish at a sushi bar, and everything that proceeds is just simply incredible! 👌

[@frds_skce]

And that's all thanks to Tim Follin's almost-magical like skill with games console soundchip, to produce something never even possible before

[@Spore9996]

Another one like that is Sacred Stones' Powerful Foe.

[@MidoriGrey]

I swear to god if you know where the best magus battle remix is let me know.

[@ASquared544]

Agree on not having ever heard a remix of Magus Battle that rivals the original.

[@JoLiKMC]

Someone needs to show this to Tim Follin, the musician of the original. He would absolutely be blown away by how *hard* this goes while staying true to the source material.

[@KynG5]

I fucking love how you handled the intro. You gave it *just* enough to feel like the beginning of "just another remix of the boss theme from Plok!" and then, LITERALLY LAST SECOND, *RIGHT AS OUR GUARDS WERE DROPPED,* turned around and (for lack of better terms) DICKSLAPPED us with the *REAL* song. A drop that hits the goddamn SOUL and wraps ALL the way around ANY headset. *THIS* is a BOSS THEME.

“There’ll be trouble! Im coming to get ya… And limbs are gonna FLY.” But seriously, out of every Plok Boss remix I’ve seen, this one actually nails it! It feels like a modern remix of the original, and the style it done so well it almost seems official. This is absolute fire!
