Theme (enemy)

1000 pigeons

Correlation to theme
I think my song had a lot of elements that correlated to the theme. The drums felt like the pitter-patter of a bird's feet on the ground, and the big horn stings felt like what a thousand birds would sound like at once.

I will admit that this is one of the entries I listen to multiple times because, my goodness, you nailed it!

As someone who loves percussions, this music executes the use of drums to capture the chaotic and frantic nature of pigeons very well. This is one of the few music whose percussions play the biggest role in representing the boss, which is, in my opinion, unique, creative, and interesting!

The overall execution of melody, BPM change, and the choice of instruments help further elevate the mayhem energy that successfully convinces me I am encountering a literal thousand pigeons.

Amazing piece of music!

Super strong. The flurries in the instrumentation and the ascending/descending tempos were really well thought out and i think fit this boss incredibly well. Like, probably the best at representing the fight i've heard so far. I would have liked for the drums to get a little more frantic when they have their moment in the middle though...a Don Caballero-type phrase would have been a great addition!

Wow! Your song is really complete with softer passages than others, change of tempo and many other changes or evolution.

I really like this drum games!

Really good job!

Ooooh I like this, energetic but also catchy! Maybe the drums could be a bit louder in the mix but other than is a great song about fighting birds!

I don't know why but the word "theargh" just sitting there in a different size and all lowecased was really funny. Why is it even there?!

really cool song too!

Ah, there you are again. Nice to see you again :)

Your song reminds me of myself: I also tend to put a lof of funny bits in there such as tempo changes (1:00+) and time signature changes (2:24; which works well as this 'theme' has been repeated throughout the song already). I love the horn, it somehow fits quite nicely. Also, I think that flute that sometimes gets really high (0:30-0:36, but also 1:40) fits the bird theme the best. And haha, 2:10 is kinda funny, I don't know why. Those quick beats (0:01 already) are also something I appreciate; it helps speed up the song but I find them quite hard to do personally. Overall, nice entry! :D

I love how tense it is, considering it's... pidgeons. I really like it!

I can feel the pigeons diving and diving! I enjoyed all the fun and inventive riffs along the way. Super fun!

Very nice! High energy track with nice tension buildup and release that captures an overwhelming fight. Love your choice of instruments too. Well done!
