Lost to eternity, to be read in 6 years when yt decides to recommend it to everyone randomly

[@crist-roayt]

Eh entrado en el vacío para decir...que Brutalidad de Remix xd

[@GigaUltraTurboGayMan]

The void is actually rather comfy.

[@UtenSwitch]

Happy anniversary, dude! You’ve accomplished so much with all of those remixes for the last decade, you should be proud of yourself :D

[@qumumusic]

Thank you very much!! It definitely means a lot to me to hear that ^/o/^

[@YipasMX]

Dude?

[@shron9073]

The old version from all those years back was probably my favorite Remix you've ever made. The fact the new version is so insanely well done and still has so many similarities to the old version.. you just made my day!

[@qumumusic]

Thank you, it really means a lot to me to hear that ^//^ Tried to stay relatively faithful to my original arrangement :D Thanks for listening!!

[@Superspaz96]

Beautiful, the opening alone sends chills down my spine!

[@qumumusic]

Thank you, it really means a lot to me to hear that ^^

[@RavernyOnYoutube]

Can't believe that you've been remixing for 10 years now, that's crazy!! I remember finding your music as some of the first music I found on youtube and loved it. Still do to this day.

[@qumumusic]

Yep! Crazy to think everything I've done with video game music fits neatly into this 10 year period That's awesome!! Thanks for listening to it! ^^

[@retrospect]

Now this is Pokémon

[@qumumusic]

Pokémonness achieved Thank you c:

[@shockersatm]

Had a hard double take seeing this pop up in my feed. I knew you'd covered this before, but realizing this was a re-remix had me bouncing in my seat! Happy anniversary Qumu, I hope it's awesome for you and there's yet more to come!

[@qumumusic]

Really glad to hear that, thank you so very much!! ^o^ Hope you like what's coming ;D

[@TheAnimeLurk]

Omg this has so much amazing energy. I got chills listening to this.

[@qumumusic]

Thank you, I genuinely appreciate hearing that ^//^

[@hellboy19991]

After beating the elite 4 and getting 8 badges each from two regions, you expect that at the end of this dungeon you find a legendary pokemon. Instead you find a legendary trainer.

[@zachvii6476]

I cannot believe it's been 10 years since you put that orchestral arrangement out. I often forget that your early music was pretty much all orchestral, which you have deviated from since then quite a bit. This style you've developed is all your own and it's captivating. I can see how the orchestral vocabulary still informs some of what you do even though this stuff isn't really orchestral at all. I asked you once before if you felt like "re-remixes" were on the table, and you said that you were mixed but open to remixing some songs you did a long time ago. I think this one makes more sense as a song to "re-remix" than any other. I'm so glad that you're still kicking, my playlists wouldn't be the same without you!

[@qumumusic]

It's been a while ^^ A couple of my key musical inspirations hadn't graced my ears yet, and a lot of my techniques underdeveloped back then c: Thank you so very much for the kind words ^o^ I'm still feeling mixed about re-remixing stuff as a whole, but this was admittedly very fun, and I thought remaking this one made sense too Glad I'm allowed to keep kicking, and it's a delight to have you around

[@LynchHack]

Happy 10th anniversary, Qumu! You've still held on as one of, if not the best VGM remixers on the internet! Still remember how hyped I was over your RBY champion remix for your 5th anniversary. Your remixes have been with me for years now and it has been such a blessing to not only look back on them with nostalgia but also gratefulness that they have been with my through light and dark and the improvement seen over the years is incredible. Keep doing what you do, it's really such an incredible achievement.

[@qumumusic]

Thank you so much, it truly warms my heart to hear that! It genuinely means so much to me to hear that you've stuck around for so long! Thank you so very much for sharing that with me, and for the kind words ^//^ I'll do my absolute best! It's been a genuine pleasure to do this for the last 10 years, and I hope I can keep doing this for much longer

[@joogles6084]

The way you included the original R/B theme in the outro section was really well done! Yet again, great remix!

[@qumumusic]

Thanks, glad you liked it, thank you!!! ^^

[@al3_084]

It's amazing and that nostalgia for childhood, coming back in the most epic way

[@qumumusic]

I'm so glad to hear that :D Thanks ^^

[@Galluchh]

the staccato of the violin at 0:54 is SOOOO perfect, Qumu how do you do it???

[@itmightbevid]

Holy moly this is really good. I started making a tier list of all your songs and remixes and I remember thinking a lot of your older remixes sounded really good to the point of being on par with present day remixes sometimes, but this remix really shows how much better you've gotten considering its a remix that you've already done. There are so many aspects of this that really stuck out to me and caught me by surprise and i think the violin-y part was the one that stood out the most, it really just shows how taking the song in a slightly different direction led to such an amazing result while still being similar to your first remix of it. Great job on this, im excited for what's to come!

[@Mysticmarz1]

Happy anniversary qumu!. Lets hope for moe goated remix's like this one!

[@qumumusic]

Thank you so much ^^ Hope you like what's coming ;D

[@anonymousnyancat492]

Hearing this remastered for the 10 year anniversary gave me goosebumps. Love you Qu, I've been growing up with your remixes for the last 6 or 7 years of my life now, it's incredible to see how far you've come.

[@AstroBlakeD]

Jesus. a decade with Qumu. i remember first discovering your remixes whilst looking up extended osts way back in the mid 2010s, how the years go by. Good work as always Q, will love to hear whats next

[@qumumusic]

Indeed, time flies Thank you so much! Great, cause I'm looking forward to making it ^^

[@Silverdragon98]

A real sense of melancholy or sadness / dread in the 50 seconds or so, really interesting spin on things :)

[@qumumusic]

It means so much to me to hear that, thank you ^o^

[@SuperUldhel]

Bro I love playing this at 0.75x speed, so much intensity ! Happy birthday, you are a reference in youtube for all the ost remix seekers !

[@Whimzee]

This is FIRE! Love your music dude, keep up the great work

[@qumumusic]

Thank you so much!! I'm so glad to hear that ^o^ I'll do my best :D

[@rikschaaf]

If they ever make another remake of those games, this would be perfect for that game! All it needs is to be possible to loop for during the fight.

[@RyeBreadFF]

Words cannot describe the sheer hype that is radiating from both my speakers and myself as I'm listening to this. Absolutely incredible stuff, all the way down to the colors fading in for the waveform as it starts!!!

[@qumumusic]

I'm so glad to hear that ^o^ I kinda wanted to pay tribute to the original intro to the battle from the Gen2 games ;D

[@RyeBreadFF]

@@qumumusic You really captured it well! I was immediately flashed back to Mt. Silver and the pokeball-shaped transition to the fight with Red.

[@crist-roayt]

Andaba navegando en tu canal y me di cuenta de algo genial... hiciste este remix como aniversario de los 10 años de tu otro vídeo con este tema xd de echo me sorprendió que al menos en varias partes es idéntico, estos detalles realmente muestran que amas hacer este contenido... tanto como nosotros lo apreciamos , eres Genial Qumu

[@Neveroff-Official]

The violin at the beginning gives me HELLA Grime vibes

[@qumumusic]

:D

[@Neveroff-Official]

@@qumumusic Didn't expect this to get noticed. I just quickly want to say thank you. Your songs are amazing and the sheer variety in how every remix sounds never leaves me bored. Keep up the good work! :3

[@BethE1207]

This sounds very Paper Mario Origami King like and I love it!

[@qumumusic]

Makes me glad to hear that! ^^

[@oscarmbk2686]

the drop is just perfect thank you for this remix

[@qumumusic]

Thank you ^^ Thanks for listening ;D

[@Neoicecreaman]

How exciting! I love your work and seeing the improvement over the years is crazy. You really have grown with each new piece even if it doesn't feel like it to you.

[@qumumusic]

I'm so happy to hear that! Thank you so very much for saying that! ^//^

[@mistprowen3157]

"Leon is the unbeatable champion! He and his Charizard are unstoppable!" Red: *Laughs in the distance*

[@Vector_U]

Congrats on 10 years my friend. This remix gave me the chills! So much attention to detail, it's just a beautiful masterpiece.

[@peterbateman818]

It's nice to see two of my favorite artists supporting each other. I have playlists with both of your music in them 😅

[@qumumusic]

Thanks U, it genuinely means a lot to me to hear that! ^o^

[@LiamWins]

Happy 10th Birthday to the channel! Now it can legally be convicted of a criminal offence! Also this is technically an original piece since it’s a remix of your remix xD

[@qumumusic]

Thank youu! ^^ Not where I live, gotta get all the way to 15 for that! c: I don't think that's how the remix math adds up, but I could be wrong... :o

[@inacio999]

Oh my god this is so good! Thanks for the amazing remix!!!

[@qumumusic]

Thank you so much!! :D

[@Jubilofono]

Esto es épico, cómo olvidar ese combate, contra uno mismo, tres años después, luego de recorrer un largo camino, de viajar por una nueva región y por otra ya recorrida y con cambios a causa del tiempo, de vencer a los líderes de Johto, Kanto y la nueva Liga Pokémon. Ahora te enfrentas a un reto mayor, a alguien que es mucho más fuerte que los dieciséis líderes que has derrotado, que el Alto Mando e incluso que el mismísimo Campeón. Lo único que queda es confiar en todo lo que aprendiste durante tu viaje y ¡combatir! *English:* This is epic, how can you forget that battle, against yourself, three years later, after traveling a long way, after traveling through a new region and another one already traveled and with changes due to time, after defeating the leaders of Johto, Kanto and the new Pokémon League. Now you face a greater challenge, someone who is much stronger than the sixteen leaders you have defeated, the Elite Four and even the Champion himself. All that's left is to rely on everything you learned during your journey and fight!

[@GOgo-San]

10 years... Wow So proud of you man, you've always been my favorite remixer (is that a word? Idk lol) and see you envolve over this decade is magic. All I can say is congratulations man, you are a beast

[@mrdrprof8402]

Holy crap I think this may be the absolute best remix of red's theme I've heard! There's a lot of good ones out there but most always kinda feel like they're missing something. Idk what it is but you've definitely got it!! This is phenomenal!!

[@gavindonnelly5885]

Man I just gotta say I'm an absolute sucker for this song, especially with the orchestra focus. The old one was actually one of the first somgs of yours that I added to my playlist after I found your channel, and it's awesome to see you revisit it. Congrats on 10 years!

[@qumumusic]

It makes me glad to hear that! ^^ Was really fun to revisit it, so I'm glad you enjoyed it :D Thanks!!

[@letlemon.]

Pokemon to Mario to so many game remixes... Whatever game it is, I know I'll be a happy listener!

[@qumumusic]

Really glad you feel that way ^//^

[@Mr._Cheese]

I love how epic this is, and how it’s different from your first remix. Very good job and happy anniversary, you honestly deserve more credit than you get for how amazing you are

[@candiisom7489]

LOVE the art! :D

[@qumumusic]

I'm so glad you do!! :D

[@Cendrail0001]

I listened to the first five seconds and did an immediate double take before looking for the old one. I couldn't you were the same person who made one of my favorite champion remixes from way back then!! Happy 10 years anniversary, and may you keep doing what you enjoy!

[@kibakibito]

THANK YOU QUMUUUUUUUUUU! I LOVE IT!

[@qumumusic]

I'm glad to hear that!! ^o^

[@notahandle919]

As per always, super great job >w< This is a new one im gunna listen to as i race in forza, thanks for all the great beats!

[@qumumusic]

Thank you so much Awesome!! I hope you have fun! c: Thanks for listening ^^

[@gregst.6576]

Brooo you deserve more subscribers and views. Your remixes are amazing! Hope to see your channel grow and keep listening to your work! Happy anniversary!

[@DavidCosmology]

Man, this was the first remix I heard from you! You capture the same feeling the first has, but put more of your uniqueness to it! I'm glad you've been enjoying music for so long by now! I hope you keep enjoying what you do

[@qumumusic]

Really good to hear that! ^//^ Thank you very much!! I hope you keep enjoying what I do too! ^^

[@dingus_maximus]

You’ve grown so much as an artist. Happy anniversary, and good luck in the future!

[@qumumusic]

I honestly appreciate hearing that, thanks ^//^ Thank you very much ;D

[@Rez_Fox]

I actually was the champion of a local anime convention tourney 3 years running. And every champion fight, i listened to your og orchestral version. Thanks for years of hits.

[@FreSch_Dude]

Honestly this just proves that despite you improving a ton, your old remixes still hold up. Amazing job and congrats qumu!

[@jeremiahabraham4801]

I played this and the first version concurrently, just for fun. It worked okay at first... sort of went off the rails after a bit though. I don't remember when I first discovered your channel, but it's been a great ride ever since. Thanks for 10 years of remixes! (You're also, like, 90% of my Nintendo playlist on Spotify, so thanks for that, too)

[@combatfrog]

I didn't think you would do this song again, but i am glad you did!👍

[@qumumusic]

I'm glad I did it too :D

[@halucky]

9 Years is a long time. I've listened to your mixes and originals for that long journey, and I can finally see the start line to the rest of my life. Not much longer now. Thanks for posting Qumu, I can't talk for everyone, but you've helped me out a ton!

[@ClearyCloudy]

One step closer to all the champion remixes, one leap for Qumu kind.

[@CarroTyanu]

i remember when i first found this channel i listened to the original on loop for a while (as well as like every other remix youve made XP), and you're doing amazing these days! keep up the good work ^w^

[@qumumusic]

Really glad to hear it! c: Thank you so much for saying that ^//^ I'll do my best!!

[@DividingLeo]

I'm so glad you're bringing new light on your old remix! Happy anniversary my guy, I'm proud to have been a listener of your works for this long! And of course, this is extremely epic, I hope you keep remixing for many more years!

[@qumumusic]

It was interesting to revisit it :D Thank you so much!! Genuinely means a lot that you've stuck around, thanks for the kind words! ^^ I hope I'm able to as well c:

[@Ki_Lyme]

Congratulations on running with this for so long! Ive been following for awhile now, always find your music enjoying, easy to throw on and have it be a wonderful addition to events or gaming sessions alike. Ive said it often, and will say it again, wonderful work as always Qumu. Hopefully all is wonderful in life, and your work continues to be as stunning as ever.

[@qumumusic]

Thank you so very much, and thanks for sticking around ;D It really means a lot to me to hear that! Thank you for the kind words! I hope I can keep giving you reasons to stick around going forward too ^//^

[@nitrox_fox]

I was just listening to the old one earlier today! Happy anniversary and you absolutely nailed this new version!

[@qumumusic]

Ey, awesome!! :D Thank you very much! Glad you think so ^^

[@shadowslightly6759]

So good it gave me goosebumps! One of my favorite battle themes, and you remixed it amazingly

[@qumumusic]

It really means a lot to me to hear that, thank you!! ^o^

[@nathanpixelkid]

i'm so glad i played firered first so that i can claim this as my theme song :)

[@qumumusic]

Well done ;D

[@thebulletbot3329]

I remember the other one, Both of them sound amazing. Had you waited 4 more days, it would've been a perfect 10 years

[@qumumusic]

Glad you think so c;

[@Special_Sharpie]

Damn that Violin(?) goes so hard!

[@qumumusic]

Thank you so much!! :D Violin, yes c;

[@renaultft1917]

Wow! I loved that first remix you made about a decade ago and now you make an even better version!

[@qumumusic]

I'm so glad to hear that, thank you so much!! ^o^

[@ozzrocket]

Absolutely wonderful, always happy to hear more of your works!

[@ultram2561]

Congrats on your Anniversary! Glad your still making these remixes after all this time.

[@qumumusic]

Thanks!! ^^ I'm glad I'm still able to :D

[@frownyclowny6955]

Every remix of Red’s theme will always slap. This is no exception.

[@qumumusic]

Thanks ;D

[@skouibi]

This is art. Amazing job as always!!!

[@qumumusic]

You're too kind! ^//^ Thank youu!

[@contentkid7949]

Oh wow it’s been ages since I’ve listened to your music and it still slaps! Amazing work! :)

[@substandardnerd]

Good work as always! I love how dynamic this mix is!

[@qumumusic]

Thanks! I actually tried to keep the dynamic range fairly wide, so I'm really glad to hear that ^^

[@Benny_Blue]

I loved this remix in high school. I OBSESSED over it. Thank you for the awesome redo!

[@qumumusic]

It truly warms my heart to hear that ^//^ Was fun to do :D

[@D-Mulagaming]

This was magnificent. Got chills and nostalgia trips the whole time! Thx Qumu!

[@qumumusic]

It means so much to me to hear that, thank you!!! ^^

[@cinnamorollteaparty]

Yooooo the violin in this remix sounds beautiful and still so threatening at the same time. Your music is always soo good, but this is just fire, dude :>

[@megaxarchive]

This one’s going at the top of the playlist. Brings back nostalgia of my Red fight in HGSS when I was 8 or 9.

[@qumumusic]

I'm so glad to hear that, thank you!! ^^

[@crist-roayt]

Buaaa este video si que no lo ví venir de parte de Qumu... pero ME ENCANTÓ!! Este es de mis temas favoritos de toda la franquicia

[@qumumusic]

I'm so glad to hear that, thank you so much!! ^o^

[@ShadowOnWiiU]

How did i miss this, i loved your old one so much! this is a really good remake!

[@LightningRoka]

Barely noticed the upload, but this one's pretty nostalgic. The original remix and Calling the Four Giants were how I found you, and why I subbed :)

[@Fall-VR_0]

phenomenal work as always. It always surprises me how you're able to take a song and make it sound like the song but turned up to 11!!!!!

[@qumumusic]

Thank you so very much!! It means a lot to me to hear that ^//^

[@elijahloiacono]

I used to listen to your old version of this on repeat. It was so dramatic and ultimate, like you're really fighting the FINAL boss. I know this is the same song, and you may have used a lot of the same instruments, but HOLY FAZOLI can you headbang to it. It feels like a totally different song just with that backbeat and it SLAPS! Thank you for bringing this back!!!

[@sniper712]

it's Qumu, it' pokemon... perfection

[@qumumusic]

Thank youu!!

[@Gameboy3DS]

Very catchy! LOVE that build-up it has to the main part of the song!

[@qumumusic]

Thanks!! I'm really glad to hear that! ^//^

[@Piggles64099]

Qumu could you please make a remix of KO Arena from Mario Wonder? I love what you do with jazzy beats!! ❤❤

[@heypal4234]

I was not expecting you to make a remix of this again! This has so much nostalgia, beautifully done!

[@qumumusic]

Thought it'd be nice to revisit the arrangement with my current knowledge and experience :D Thank you so much!! ^^

[@Horizon206]

Congrats on the 10-year anniversary! Although I found your channel 2 years ago, it's always a delight when you upload a new song! Thank you for everything Qumu!

[@qumumusic]

Thank you very much!! It means a lot to me to hear that, thanks for listening ^^

[@diamondchannel1816]

dang.. i always loved the theme but this is great! happy anniversary btw!

[@Fimbleshanks]

This is genuinely awesome. I feel pumped! Congratulations on 10 years! I can't believe 2013 is so far away already.

[@qumumusic]

Thank you!! :D I want to say that time flies, and that it feels like no time has passed, but, like, so much has happened in the past decade

[@MintChipWonder]

Great job with this one! Love it!

[@Duhemsounds]

Very beautiful take on that epic track

[@qumumusic]

It means a lot to me that you think so ^o^

[@bobzilla-1]

Your Pokemon covers never miss. Love seeing old game sound tracks w/ modern soundfonts and this channel does it so well.

[@qumumusic]

I'm so glad to hear that, thanks ^^

[@maestrotitano]

My favorite remix artist does my favorite Pokemon theme? Bit late for my birthday, but I'll take it!!! Happy anniversary to you as well!

[@qumumusic]

Happy late birthday ;D

[@eloquentornot]

This is so cool!! It just keeps getting more and more epic!!

[@qumumusic]

Thank you so much!! ^o^

[@xenthor1989]

Tout simplement magique ;) Un grand bravo pour ce son !

[@ElgrimSC]

Really, one of my favorites remix you did so far ! ❤

[@qumumusic]

I'm so glad to hear that, thank you

[@alpha_0277]

I am way too happy that you did this... the first version of this was the first remix I heard by you, and probably one of the first remix i heard ever, i think i heard it some years after it came out, and i was like: damn this song is fking epic, and i forgot about it. Then years later after re-discovering your channel i realised it was you, you were the one to make me like music. when writing this i took 30min just smashing random leters like "drtftgyhfauzig" then deleating it because i couldn't express how happy i was

[@qumumusic]

It truly warms my heart to hear that! Super glad to have been part of your journey of musical discovery ^//^ Thanks for listening!! I guess we've all done that at some point

[@alpha_0277]

and forgot to mansion that pokemon is one of the main games of my childhood to a point were both my old username and my actual username are based on pokemon games, that half my music playlist are qumu remix, and that literally 2 days ago i was listening again to your og red theme remix and i was fucking flabbergasted when i noticed the main theme melody at the end. and so much more, way too much more

[@Bjix]

Oml the buildup! Qumu you do not disappoint 😆

[@qumumusic]

It warms my heart to hear that ^//^

[@pedrotapia74]

I remember the original remix and this brings back so many memories

[@qumumusic]

Awesome!! I'm so glad to hear that

[@eeveetrainer4849]

As always, an absolute BOP, I'm putting this in my music playlist immediately!

[@qumumusic]

Thank you so very much for that!! ^^

[@eeveetrainer4849]

No, thank YOU for creating masterpieces!

[@AV_cables]

Always a treat when you remix a pokemon track!! Love it!!

[@qumumusic]

Thank you!! :D

[@loopdeloop15]

Hell yeah, 10 years! Congrats and let’s hope for another 10 years of greatness!

[@qumumusic]

Thank you very much!! I hope I can keep it going ^//^

[@JTTunes1204]

Congrats on 10 years Qumu!!! Your content is AWESOME and I can’t wait for the future content you make!

[@qumumusic]

Thank you so much!! I'm so glad you like the music!! Looking forward to making it ^^

[@thefreshestmango1106]

Can't believe it's been 10 years. I remember finding you in middle school and got hooked. Keep it up man🎉😊

[@StranglyNight]

this will be a very important remix! and the fact its very cinematic makes it even better

[@qumumusic]

Glad you liked it ^^

[@jotimsuper]

That intro gave me goosebumps, as do most of your remixes. Thank you for all the work you put into to give us high-quality remixes. Amazing stuff as always. (Also have a great day :)

[@qumumusic]

Warms my heart to hear that, thank you so much for the kind words and for listening ^//^ Thanks, hope you have a great day too :D

[@rafaleteeldelbrazalete8304]

Wasn't expecting an updated version of one of your better remixes. Good Job!!!!

[@qumumusic]

I was originally planning on making a medley for the anniversary, but I quickly realized I wouldn't be able to make it in time Thanks ^o^
