History AwesomeMusic / DigimonTamers

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UrT76UgBevk Anytime Moumentai]], in which Terriermon's dual nature is comically exposed.

* Say what you will about the English dub, but they nailed it with the soundtrack. In addition to the reused elements of the ''Digimon Adventure'' score, they added moody orchestral pieces that were obviously heavily inspired by ''Film/TheMatrix''. And the theme tune gets quite an awesome remix for this season too.

** In general, the sound mixing once the series takes a harsh swerve into serious territory becomes incredible. It sounds ominous when it needs to be ominous, it sounds tragic when it needs to be tragic. This is a pretty big departure from ''Adventure+02'''s dub work that often was a borderline GagDub, even considering that while the director is different, many of the same people who worked on those dubs also worked on this one. It's rare that a dub that has been edited to air on children's TV in the States manages to be just as serious, if not arguably ''more'' so than its Japanese counterpart, but ''Tamers'' is absolutely an exception.

** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tak5XoMPPA8 "Bio-merge Digivolution"]] theme merits special mention, taking on a mystical, contemplative mood of sorts while still incorporating pieces of the English ''Digimon'' theme song.

* Digimon Tamers had plenty of great songs. Some only heard in the anime, like the sad but incredibly moving Saxophone with piano background version of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gEJhG4_1Mhs The Biggest Dreamer]], and some that were never even heard in the anime, and that (obviously) were never sold around the world.
* Rika's theme from the ''Best Tamer'' album, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXlJbzHGMxE Moon Fighter]], that firmly established her as a Badass.
* Beelzemon's theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=reJH5MvegRo Black Intruder]], which makes him a BadassBiker.
* Hirokazu's theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e146CpuwURI HeroKazu]] which makes him a beach boy
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fAgJ483EZ0 Starting Point]], which has some interesting musical variations.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=coIqBqM3wgk Wind]] is the full version of the music played when the tamers decide to go to the digital world.

** The Japanese original, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xa8almxnYto The Biggest Dreamer]]". Its [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ec92887bX30 memorial theme]] is pretty damn cool too.
** César Franco is the voice behind the Latino Dub of the Tamers opening theme. The full version, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RN12pUB0G-I Sueña, Inventa (El Gran Soñador)]], is well worth a listen.
** As the Butterfly example above, there is also a very good fan made [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PxqyEPWBuwQ hard rock instrumental cover.]]

** Also worthy of note is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQDSzUAO8OM this fan-made guitar cover.]]
* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysWLoNT2rPo EVO]]" and "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5wdDxziaXE Slash]]" pretty much gave Tamers its unique feeling.
** Evo also had an awesome remix in the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Apur0EiRWI German dub]].

** The English dub has [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2cj5rjvcQdU Promise.]]
** {{Tear Jerk|er}}ing music: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFlDt2lrGbA Three Primary Colours]].

* The two heartwarming TV ending themes:
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DY0uHEcJPP8 My Tomorrow]], sung by [=AiM=] (Ai Maeda) and the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZk0iw2197A memorial version]], sung by the female characters' cast.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVg134EolZg Days]], also by [=AiM=].
* The Tamers' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNPQU_HTPmw drum and bass remix]] of the dub theme.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CsIOovWnE1M The Korean Opening.]] Compare to the American version and Japanese version (which felt like a very typical Shonen anime opening), the tone of this version managed to capture the anime's darker theme while remaining faithful to its Shonen feel. Even better, the lyrics are all about maturity and coming-of-age, which are recurring themes of Tamers.

* Both the Latino dub of the Tamers [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgiJ9bflyYE opening theme]] and the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qIHvfItKMWc german remix]] puts the English dub to complete and horrid shame.

** Jeri's alternate theme, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0-04OVFChg Itsu ka no Iro or The Colour of Someday]] from the Digimon Girls Festival, is for lack of better word, ''street''. Words cannot spoil the surprise of the tune. [[http://www.animelyrics.com/anime/digitame/itsukanoiro.htm With lyrics.]]

** The standard ''Digimon Tamers'' English Digivolution theme (heard [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZ0rbfwhgvQ here]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCRq1TGxPk4 here]]) modifies the English "Digimon Theme", giving it a nice sort of "bite" or "edge" that seems warranted for transformation scenes.
** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OkAkehyaOwU English "Digi-Modify"/"Digi-Modification" theme]] practically embodies the concept of being "digital", greatly complementing the scenes when it plays.
** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tak5XoMPPA8 "Bio-merge Digivolution"]] theme merits special mention, taking on a contemplative mood of sorts while still incorporating pieces of the English ''Digimon'' theme song.
