Here's my jazz tenor saxophone cover of Lacunosa Town from Pokémon Black and White featuring insaneintherainmusic! I'm Sab and I love jazz and video games, so now I make covers that combine two of my favorite things!
I guess Gen 5 music isn't that bad lol! I'm a huge fan of Pokémon Gen 3 & 4, but I figured it would be good to try something different and to collaborate on it with Carlos! It's been awhile since we collaborate and we had a lot of fun with this one! It's always a struggle when we collaborate because we're both very opinionated, but we really worked together to blend together both our styles and have a fun time making it!
Hope you enjoy our Pokémon canon in the middle of the tune as well as both solos in this funky Lacunosa Town jazz sax remix!

This when has been in the works for quite awhile! I recorded the initial idea back in early May and did a bulk of the work in June while traveling, but then other projects consumed my life in the summer months haha
I originally recorded this on acoustic piano with vocals, but wanted to have electric piano be the backbone of this composition. With vocals, flute, bass, and piano supporting it. I programmed a lot of parts when I didnt have access to my keyboard, and learned a lot taking a similar approach like Vernal Wandering.
I was pretty happy with this track in mid June, but had quite a few projects backlogged that I wanted to release first. And then I thought I should add more to it since it felt a little short. However, after adding more to it, it felt like the piece wasnt the same. So I opted to keep this one shorter, and maybe Ill revisit it in the future and extend it, but Im happy with tune right now!
I was definitely a bit inspired by the Mushoku Tensei ED2 with the chords and feeling of the opening section, but it was fun to turn that into something more in my own style.
For the video, I was in a bit of rush as I had to film this before getting my wisdom teeth removed and packing some stuff. I hadnt used my flood lights in a few months and knew they would be perfect to convey that dreamy night sky feel I wanted to channel in this track. I wanted to have a bit of color variety with the flood lights, and thought about the colors you would see in auroras in the night sky as well.
Hope you enjoy my original #VGM town theme #CityofSwayingStars composed by me, #SabIrene

Sooo I can’t believe it’s almost been a year since Deltarune came out! I’m so excited to see more of the game as it comes! I wanted to cover this song as soon as I heard it in game.
Putting this song together had quite a few stages and layers. I originally wanted it to be 2 wind quartets of saxophones and other woodwinds, but scratched that idea pretty quickly. The focus on the past few months has been solo covers. Last year there were a lot of collaborations, which were fun, but I really want to tap into what I’m capable of on my own.
I started with just a simple version, pretty close to the original just with instrument changes and some additional choir parts. I was pretty content with it, but then thought about how it would sound if it was Latin jazz. I didn’t want to scrap the cover I just recorded, so I opted to put them together (2 days before the video was coming out).
To me, I realized that it was like putting both sides of myself into this cover. I spend most of my musical time studying classical saxophone, playing in a fairly traditional wind ensemble, etc. But in my free time, I play anything else. I love playing all types of jazz and enjoy listening to most music not from the classical realm. To me, the past few months have been about experimentation. I’m enjoying bring some jazz back into the channel as I continue to learn more about jazz harmony and arranging.
I’m really glad I ended up adding the Latin section into this tune. I would smile every time I would listen and record a part. I’ve been really happy with the content coming out the past few months, but even more so with this cover. I’m so excited for the things coming up for the rest of 2019! Really pushing myself to try new things and gaining more musical confidence.
Hope you enjoy this cover of Scarlet Forest from Deltarune!

A new video with the new camera! Ive had Sycamores Theme on my list for a long time and since I got my flute back, I decided to cover it right away in better quality.
I was talking with insaneintherainmusic about this song and he heard Dragon Roost Island and thought I should include it. I originally just put it in the bass line, but added the melody just to see how it sounded. So thank you to him :) Also, thanks to insaneintherainmusic for creating the percussion for this piece!
Hope you enjoy Sycamores Theme from Pokémon X & Y! :)

Yes I know its March, and practically April lol
At the start of the year, I really struggled with what I wanted to do with YouTube and just work in general. It was really tough for me. Anytime I tried to write something for myself or for a client, I just felt so stuck and like no ideas I had were good.
I definitely felt a lot of pressure to compose compared to it being a fun, creative outlet while I did covers. And after a month of being stuck and so tough on myself, I sat down at the piano and played the opening pattern.
One of my goals the past month or so has been maintaining momentum in a tune and not just relying on percussion to create a groove or momentum. I realized a lot of my favorite tunes created momentum with harmonic ostinatos and other pitched based techniques rather than percussive. I definitely did a bit of both, but it was to start a piece with something totally new! I always start with a chord progression and sing a melody. This started with the ostinato and was just a bunch of improvised parts recorded in my DAW back in February.
I was largely inspired by Chrono Trigger and Ace Attorney when writing this track. When the drums come in, I felt transported to the world of Ace Attorney, hearing this a little bit as a character theme youd hear in court or something. As for the Chrono Trigger influence, the chords for sure, and the softer sections just felt very ethereal in the way some of my favorite tracks from CT feel! I didnt really have a specific goal for where this would fit in a video game, it was just nice to write something and finish!
As for the video, I wanted to take a simple approach since its all keyboard parts. I just wanted to do little color differences between the piano, EP, and synth parts and of course the particles! I got a new camera in December and Im so happy to get to use it and keep learning more with each new video!
I owe a lot to this composition as Ive been able to push forward with a LOT of different projects and try new things in compositions that I cant wait to share soon! (I promise it wont be 2-3 months til the next video). Might be in a few weeks!
Hope you enjoy this original composition #FebruaryJam done by me, #SabIrene

January has been the month of redos for me! Its been fun to explore old covers and give them a proper update!
Canalave City is such a beautiful tune in Pokémon DPPt! The music reflects the area so well and I love how you can watch the water, but also go read about Sinnoh lore in the Canalave library! I wanted to keep things chill and was inspired by one of my favorite tunes, which is The List by Moonchild. I wanted the cover to have elements of lo-fi music with the drum machine and phone EQ in a few sections.
I really wanted the cover to sound like I was just jamming, pretty much just having fun making music. Sometimes stress takes away the fun of creating music, so this cover really helped remind me why I do what I do. I love making music that makes people smile and relax.
So much of this arrangement was written as I recorded. I wanted to mess around with creating layers within an instrument. Ive been struggling with arranging a lot because I try to throw every instrument I own into a cover rather than highlighting a select few. I had limited instruments with me when I made this cover, and I think it turned out really well!
im really happy with how this cover turned out! And I hope you enjoy this chill cover of #CanalaveCity from #PokémonDPPt by #SabIrene

Heres my vocal and piano cover of True Kinda Love from Steven Universe featuring Zorsy! Im Sab and I love saxophone and video games, so now I make covers that combine two of my favorite things!
I am so happy about this cover! Some of you may know I watched all of Steven Universe back in April and completely fell in love with it. I have a long list of music that I want to cover, but this one jumped to the top of the list for a special reason!
A few weeks ago, Zorsy told me he would be in Boston and I hadnt seen him in almost 4 years... I asked if he wanted to do a certain SU song and he was down, but then offered to collab on the song that would be announced for the movie at Comic Con. I watched the trailer that came out a few days later only to learn he played the song for the movie!
We wanted to keep the cover super low key since we were only in town at the same time for a few hours and recorded 2 videos! It was great getting to catch up after so long and make music together!
Enjoy this super chill cover of True Kinda Love from Steven Universe!

I think this is the fastest I have ever had to produce a song for YouTube in my entire career. I didn’t really have any ideas or inspiration to write anything new these past few weeks. I was mostly working on some long term projects and revisiting old projects to try some new plug-ins I bought recently.
Then on Thursday (72 hours before the video was supposed to come out), I finally got an idea. I’ve been trying to resume daily practice on piano and saxophone since it’s been a few years. More recently, I’ve been dedicating time to production, which has definitely paid off! But I want to keep pushing on my instruments as well and honing my craft as a performer. Part of that includes weekly sight reading, which has been from my giant Ghibli songbook. As I’ve been listening and practicing the music of Joe Hisaishi, I realized I’ve never tried to write my own version of music you would hear in the overture of a Ghibli film.
This past week I learned the opening to Nausicaä, Valley of the Wind and really enjoyed it! (Which I still need to watch). There’s this melancholy to the track, but it’s still so grand! I also pulled out One’s Summer Day as it’s one of my favorite Ghibli tracks. I was reminded of how much Joe Hisashi uses quartal harmony in his work and suddenly got an idea I love using quartal harmony in my own compositions as well, and opened with that.
I had to act pretty quickly as I had 72 hours to compose, record, produce, film, edit, mix, and master a track to be up to my standards. And it was a challenge…
After recording the piano structure, I was writing and recording on the fly. Figuring out what instruments I wanted, where, and what I wanted them to play. I knew I wanted a wooden flute sound in the repeat of the main theme and dug up an old recorder and doubled it with flute. I would have loved to include saxophone in this, but I went for a more traditional orchestra ensemble with flutes, clarinets, and trumpets. I hadn’t played my trumpet in years, but it was so much fun to integrate into this track I couldn’t pass it up.
Two of the biggest challenges for me with this track was making sure everything had its own space and sounding like it was in the same space. As well as strings. I’ve never had a great string library and I’m currently trying to swap the one I use since it’s really janky and just not what I’m looking for. The audio kept cutting out the string samples during render, but I couldn’t just get rid of the part. The strings add a lot of depth and texture to this track. So in the hours before release, I was trying any string sample I had, but there were problems with all of them.
Aside from those challenges and the time constraint, I really like the composition and hopefully I can revisit it when I have more time! I’d love to arrange this for a full orchestra ensemble and see what it would sound like with live musicians! And polish up the mix even more.
Hope you enjoy this Ghibli-inspired original Tale of Time~

Such an underrated theme from Pokémon XY! Its been awhile since Ive covered a track from this game, but Ive heard it so much I had to!
I heard a cool remix of this track recently and thought about how I would make it my own. I wanted vocals to be the focus of this covers and have the rhythm section really compliment it. While there isnt a lot of saxophone in covers lately, Ive been trying to push having fun and improvising a bit more since its a weaker skill of mine. Its been fun figuring out how to bring the saxophone in without being jarring or like it doesnt fit.
I really wanted this to be a chill cover and just jam and have fun. Its been my philosophy with my music in 2021 and Ive been so happy with the music Ive been making the past 6 months!
Hope you enjoy this chill lo-fi cover of #Bicycle from #PokémonXY done by #SabIrene

![Chrono Trigger Main Theme: Chrono Trigger [Saxophone Cover] | Sab Irene
Heres my jazz tenor saxophone cover of the Main Theme from Chrono Trigger! Im Sab and I love jazz and video games, so now I make covers that combine two of my favorite things!
So this is the beginning. A long journey awaits you.
I have wanted to cover the Chrono Trigger Main Theme for awhile. I absolutely loved playing Chrono Trigger! It is probably my favorite video game Ive ever played. The story is so incredible and obviously the music is phenomenal if I like covering it.
There are so many layers to this piece, so mixing was a challenge. That seems to be a theme with every Chrono Trigger cover I do.
The piece has some beautiful chords and really interesting melodic lines. When I was arranging this, I was only gonna play tenor saxophone and didnt know how I would get the intro because the melody is so spread out. A friend of mine suggested including alto, and Im glad that I got my alto when I did. This track pushed me to get the best tone Ive ever had on alto. Good thing too because I gotta start playing alto primarily for college next semester.
Also, I had my jury earlier. It went pretty well! Im sad since its my last one for tenor saxophone. Gotta focus on alto now for college.
