I had such a blast working on this theme! The original incorporates so many wacky melodies and non-melodic passages which really challenged me to try and re-create that on guitar.
A huge aspect about the original battle theme is that there's a lot of \"behind the scenes\" type of counterpoints happening behind the main melodies which I had to pick and choose wisely what I wanted to feature in my metal version because I didn't have as much sonic space in my version due to my huge rhythm guitars that I added. I felt like I had to use only the ones that needed to be there and I left a few behind and replaced tthem with my ownn riff ideas!
When we get into the main chorus part of the arrangement, that's when I had a blast laying down some crushing C# riffage and got to jam as hard as I could!
Overall I had a ton of fun working on this and I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it! Thanks so much for watching!
The original Colress Battle Theme from the game \"Pokemon Black and White 2\" was composed by Junichi Masuda, Go Ichinose, Minako Adachi, Hitomi Sato, Tomoaki Oga, & Hideaki Kuroda.
