This is really cool! My favorite part is right at the beginning when the beat comes in. At first it sounds like you were going to go in a different direction, but then it suddenly turned into a pinball city! The thing that struck me as most impressive about this is the mixing - everything sounds really well-balanced and I love the background pulsing instrument that emerges and seems to swirl around at 0:28. The trumpet melody next to the bassline feels like a quirky Animal Crossing theme which works really well with the description you made. Great work and thank you for sharing!

Hey, thanks for your feedback!
I wanted it to feel sudden, because I love it when songs make a rule then immediately break it.
I'm so happy you like the mixing, and that you think it feels like a pinball city.
Yeah the 0:28 swirling part is a unique bit of percussion I found in a kit called 'Ultimate Boom Bap Kit'. I made it swirl by fading the panning from right to left.
I'm quite proud of the trumpet melody, so the comparison to Animal Crossing is amazing to hear - I'm glad you caught the wacky vibe.
