Track description | Creative process
I joined late but still had so much fun making this! I listened to a few hours of the New Horizons soundtrack as quickly as I could. I wanted to try and capture how I felt playing Animal Crossing on the GameCube when I was adding furniture and things to my character's little house on a sunny weekend. I noticed how breezy New Horizons sounds so I made sure to play a chill guitar part at the end ( also kk slider haha)

I used Logic Pro for the DAW and an 88-key MIDI keyboard for the keys and bass parts. I started the guitar idea with a telecaster since it can sound brighter, but switched to a Stratocaster for something warmer. I can't wait for the next one :)

I fucking love this band. They are the best band period

Very Chill! Matches the theme really well. Sounds like a mix of older with newer AC elements.

Nice chill piece, great work :)

Very chill with all the animal crossing charm, this is really adorable! I love the choice of synths, very fitting for the theme and overall a very groovy melody. Amazing work!!

I think you captured the felling of the original soundtrack, it sets the mood with semplicity, the warm sound works very well

Oh that synth really works for me ! Good composition Melody Harmony and Rythm, everything feels at it's place !  Good job :)

Groovy and nice synth melody.

I liked the upright bass sound at the beginning, nice vibe!

I really like the fact that you went with the live guitar, but i think it's out of sync with the groove! Other than that, piece fits very well!

Really great groove and vibe! Only thing that felt a bit too strong to me was the drumstick? snap (but really only on the first listen or two). Great stuff!

Thank you! I noticed the drumstick thing as well! I ran out of time before I could fix that.

really impressive this track feels exactly like a classic breezy walk through the island , but with more substance and a nice refreshing new atmosphere around it.

This was good, I wish i had a bit more context overall but it's pretty good albeit a bit too silent. Good job overall!
