this is the kind of track you compose at 3am, think it's absolute fire, then sleep and come back to it and spot like 50 things you want to change

sounds like an undertale battle

@steamer2k319 Ай бұрын

Yep--sounds like a boss battle with some lighter sections while they slowly unveil their evil scheme through some monologuing. Not sure if it's Undertale per se but video game confrontation was definitely the vibe I got.

Genuinely incredible. Been listening to this on loop for the last few days, and it just gets more exciting - I absolutely love how the leitmotifs build on each other to make sense of such a bizarre mixed metre, and how the notation shows the phrasing even when it contradicts expectations. Harmonically, rhythmically, and vibes-wise, this is spectacular.

@ko9602 Ай бұрын

I wanna play this but I’d have trouble remembering the time changes. If this could be simplified to more consecutive measures of one count before it changes, I could learn it easier. Can you imagine a version of this where the count changes are easier to memorize? If there’s a way of simplifying the count in a way that’s easier to memorize.
