Hi Carlos, I just wanted to say, I'm following you since you were like 15 (you said it in comments at the time and I was in shock) now I have 2 sons and my 6 years old son is always amazed by the fact you're the same person playing all these instruments (while I'm just playing the piano) and he loves watching your videos while listening to your music. Whatever you do next, I just wanted to say thank you for all the amazing content you chose to share with us.
I'm so proud to be a part of this project and can't wait for people to hear the whole album. Thank you for trusting in and inviting me to be a part of your musical journey. ☺
NGL I had always assumed "insaneintherain" was a deep cut Jazz joke that I just didn't know. Finding out it's a competitive Pokémon reference warms my heart
if he announces that he is going to become a content creator again, I will scream with joy. moreover, if he announces that he will make more original creations, my scream may be heard in my entire neighborhood.
Not exactly a long-term fan, just a casual who has the RU-vid algorithms to thank for putting your stuff into my playlists sometimes. But always love what I've heard, and appreciate your work. You just seem like a pretty awesome person in general and I'll be looking forward to this original album.
Despite being a completely original album, if I listened to the music in the "Insane in the Rain" preview without any context, I would totally believe that it is music from a game that I've never played before. Your work is so authentic, I'm so excited to give it a listen when it's released. Here's to ten more years of music! I'm happy you're doing well with the change in your channel's direction.
These live studio original compositions are the most fun videos to watch on RU-vid. Seeing the interaction between the musicians, and also listening to just the audio. I’m excited that someone well-versed in VGM takes this route, as you can tell that your melodies are in the forefront of your thought process. Thank you for all that you do.
I nearly teared up at that new recording of Flow. Carlos we’re all so proud of your journey and I can’t wait to hear your new tunes. Thank you for the music bro
Carlos, you’ve been a _massive_ inspiration to myself, and I hope to one day achieve a following where I, too, could produce original music that is loved by fans of my VGM music. Thank you for showing us that it _is_ possible! So incredibly excited to hear this album!! 🙌
Great video Carlos. I love listening to your music. I love how much you've strided to make the best music possible and you said it so elequently well in this video. Looking forward to continue watching your journey.
The best pieces of art are the ones born from people sharing their own stories. I've been learning that more clearly the last couple years. If you think what you make is telling an honest story, then it will be meaningful. I'm excited to hear it. You are a large part of why I listen to music rather than just relegate it to the background
"Carlos is evolving!" Congratulations on this 10 year anniversary! I am very excited to listen to this new original album of yours. I think it was a great decission of you to take the next step and focus on creating your own original music. Not only because I am always interested in new compositions and fresh ideas that keep things interesting and exciting, but also because it is your personal desire to do so. Also, I really appreciate your strive for high quality, because I think that's what elevates your work from "good" to "exciting". Keep it up!
It's wild to think I've been listening to you make music for over a decade. I just started the last year of my masters degree in sax performance, and I would be remiss to not mention that you were one of my biggest inspirations in pursuing music. Very excited for this album and very happy to see that you are still making such godly content.
I've been such a massive fan of your's for years. All of my RU-vid mixes are STILL FILLED to the brim with your music. While I do miss you, so very much, I can't wait to see what you're going to do next :)
I'm glad to see you continue to pursue your goals and continue to challenge yourself. Thank you for embarking on this journey, and taking us along for the ride!
Wow! Forward is absolutely beautiful it reminds me of T-Square's album "WISH" it's like Takeshi Itoh himself was playing! your writing and structuring is always so fantastic. I'm so excited for this album to release! October is going to be great!
i'm so proud of you carlos, man. youve been around on youtube since basically since i joined this site, and to see you, after putting so much into your music, finally doing what you *truly* love is so inspiring. keep doing what you're doing, man! i can't wait to see what the future has in store for you, and im absolutely getting this album!! :D
Just wanted to say thanks for making music all these years! My ringtones, and alarms, and driving music over the years have been your jazz versions of songs. Looking forward to adding originals to my list! Very inspiring to see you make it this far and keep going.
I'm so excited for the new album! I discovered you with the mii channel wave of popularity but I stuck around for every video after that. Your videos got me through high school and now I have a daughter expected to be born December 16! It's so cool to be growing up with you as we are almost the same age. It's almost like you're my friend that I "grew up" with. Keep up the amazing work Carlos, and get INSANE IN THE RAIN!!!
I can’t thank you enough for everything your music has done for me. Through your old video game arrangements, I’ve learned about the attachments and emotional connections I can have with music. It’s changed how I’ve viewed music as a whole, and encouraged me to continue with my music education by seeing how happy it made me. By listening to you and seeing the impact it made on me, makes me excited to see how I’ll do the same with music I’ll play for others in the future. Along with that, your music introduced me to my incredible love for jazz. For the longest time I was always thought the genre wasn’t for me, and your music really woke me up. I’m very glad I found your channel when I did, because your music changed my whole world, which probably seems odd to most because what did, was jazz covers of music I had already listened to. It’s INSANE how much It affected me, and I’m so thankful. I Can’t wait to see where this new direction takes you, thank you so much for everything so far.
How glad I that we will be getting more tracks from you! Through you I discovered my passion for Jazz and VGM, and I've been lovestruck by your tracks for almost nine years now. It is an absolute joy to see your hard work and skill elevated into full albums and OSTs for full games. Also, a vinyl release is highly appreciated (:. I'm looking forward to listening to your new tracks and preordering the vinyl on release, keep up the great work.
Cannot describe the hype of hearing “Forward” again. One of my all time favorite songs of yours for sure. Congrats on ten years man. I’m excited to hear more!
flow was such an important piece to my musical development man, it opened up a lot of pathways to finding better connections with feel and emotion in my writing so im so glad it's on the album. anyway all the love and support man, can't wait for the album - thank you for the tunez 🎵
Congratulations on ten years. Ten years is a long time, and it must seem incredible to reach this achievement. I hope to be there to celebrate twenty, or maybe even thirty years of insaneintherainmusic...
Man, you’re an inspiration. I love your philosophy on “Insane In The Rain,” it’s motivating and has this energy to it. Can’t wait to jam out to your tunes (not literally, the suspense is what makes it hype). Otherwise, I’m happy for you and I hope you go on to keep doing what you enjoy doing time and time again. Try hard, die hard.
I have been following you for a really long time and I can't believe its already been 10 years. I don't know what you are going to do next, but I wanted to write a little appreciation post for all that you've down until now. Around 4 years ago I didn't like music. I never really listened to anything. I disliked anything on the radio, it all felt the same. Even video game music became a little boring. I felt like music just wasn't my thing. For some unknown reason a video of yours came into my recommended. It was your Buoy base video. Mario galaxy was one of my favorite games at the time so I didn't see a reason not to click, although I never really appreciated game remixes. After watching that video, my whole view point on music changed. Before this I didn't even know what a "jazz" was. I just know there was a bee that said "ya like jazz?" and thats it. Nothing more. Everything I heard in your video was so melodic, so different. Its a genre I actually enjoyed really much. The mysterious EWI you played was so unimaginably beautifull that it was the first instrument I picked up since 8 years, when I played the piano for like half a year. 4 years later, I now play EWI, Tenor sax and a little piano on the side. Jazz has completely changed my life starting with your video. I haven't found a place where I can play yet, since there isn't alot of jazz where I live, but I am so happy listening and playing to the genre. In my opinion, your Sinnohvation album is your magnum opus. The shear size of that album baffles me. Whatever you'll do, wherever you'll go, you will have left an amazing legacy here on youtube and will grow to be so much more in the future. Good luck with the next chapter Carlos.
HOLY MOLY, LET'S GOOOOOO I still remember the sheer joy I felt when you first posted Forward, which was very symbolically titled in hindsight...look at ya now! Will this be the first album I ever buy? Possibly...
Oh man dude you’ve made some great stuff. I love listening to your Sinnohvation playlist while I’m doing homework, and a lot of your stuff has helped me through some hard times No matter what you decide to do next we’ll all be supporting you!
Carlos you have come so far. You have so much ahead of you. You have been one of my many inspirations to pursue a Jazz Career and I couldn't be happier right now. Looking forward to the album and I can't wait to see what's next for you!!
Thank you so much for these past 10 years, your mixes and covers have not only helped me get through some tough times, but have also inspired me to pursue music in college and on RU-vid! I’ve only just recently started my journey with uploading my own covers on RU-vid and you have undoubtedly been my biggest inspiration. Thank you once again for all the music and I wish you nothing but the best of luck in your future endeavors :)
at the start of quarantine i fell in love with jazz because of you, you formed basically my entire music taste and i thank you for that. recently i started a keyboarding class in my highschool because of you, thanks a ton Carlos!
Just bout a signed copy no hesitation. You have been just a massive inspiration to me as I've made my transition from high school to adulthood and you've enriched my life in a way not many other people have. Thank you!
I am so glad to hear what you’ve been up to! You are one of my favorite artists, video game remixes and original compositions alike. I can’t wait to hear the new music!!
I've been watching your videos for years now, and you've been so inspiring! I've always focused on 'being the best' in my music, but you've reminded me to still have fun with what I play! You're music is amazing, and I'm so glad you've found a career doing what you love! Best of luck to you, and keep being awesome!
Been following you for such a long time Carlos! I'll happily support you in any shape or way! I can not wait to get my hands on your music, and to see what you bring on the bright horizon!
I’ve been watching you since your Alight (Storm) cover (which was uploaded on my 14th birthday), and I’m amazed to see how far you’ve come. Your drive constantly inspires me to push myself as a performing artist, and I’m so stoked to see where your career goes from here!
Man, this just made the rest of my year. I've loved your music for years and it's what got me into music in the first place, along with something to bond with my Dad over. I'm so damn happy that there's gonna be more music, original music at that for us to listen to.
CARLOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS ISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS BACKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK. I love this trailer so much and I CANNOT WAIT to grab it up and listen to all of the juicy songs. Thank you so much!
I've been a subscriber and huge fan since around 2014. Your music has always amazed and inspired me to grow in my own musicianship. So excited to pick up the vinyl of your new album! I'm just really happy to see you thrive and proud to be a fan!
I'm so excited to hear what's next! I'm a huge fan, love all your stuff, and I'm so happy you're still getting to do what you love. Looking forward to the new releases!
Been here since the very beginning back when you were just making piano covers and got the chance to meet you at PAX years back. I've loved everything you do, and I'm excited for the next chapter.
dude even when u were all vgm i was hoping ud do smth like this someday, this doesnt feel like some scary unfamiliar thing alienating ur audience or wutever else u might b nervous abt, it feels like the Ultimate Payoff, thx for the insanity
I gotta be honest I'm pretty new here and I wish I was here earlier. You've already inspired me to chase my dreams. I love the little segment about your artist name. I'm so happy that you've started a band with all these amazing people like Dom Palombi. I'm so exited to see where this is heading and I'm all for it.
Finally I have the money to support you on one of your albums! I just got mine preordered. I'm glad you are still doing well and that you are still happy with your choice!
I'm so psyched for you Carlos! And I'm doubly as psyched to rip some of Dom's grooves (; cheers from Tacoma. all hail Starmie (er, not hail. rain. long reign Starmie)
You saying that you started learning piano at 15 was very inspiring to me. I’m learning the piano at 15 right now, teaching myself. But I am also in jazz band at my school, and I feel really discouraged when other kids my age say that they have been playing since they were 4. (Just a little jealous lol.) But yeah It’s nice to see popular people I like that haven’t been taught playing or singing since they were born. It’s never too late to start learning music.
It feels like I've been listening to your videos for so long now, thanks you so much for all the music my friend and can't wait for this next step and all the ones to come after !!
I love that your user name origin is based on Pokemon. Competitive Pokemon doesn't get enough attention, it's so fun and my only way to have fun after playing through each game aside from shiny hunting in my opinion. Thank you for being an incredible musician as well, love your music, whether they're arrangements or original. Always masterpieces.
Let's go! So happy yo have you back. I just met you last night in Montreal and it was so special to me cause I've been following you since I was doing university following my dream of working on videogames, and after 9 years I'm working on it now. Thanks for all the inspiration!
Congrats on 10 years! You've been a real inspiration for my own jazz composition. If it weren't for you, I probably wouldn't compose as much. Thank you for simply making fun jazz compositions!
I am excited to see what you do with wholly-original compositions. I really enjoy what you've done before and it'll be interesting to see where you go next.
Carlos, I just wanna say I absolutely adore your music and as long as that fire in your belly telling you to play music goes I’ll support you in any way I can. The fact that you are working with these great people and (as far as I can see) having a lot of fun with it is all I could ask. Keep doin what you wanna do.
