I think this is a really cool mix of western and horror music! Some things that stick out to me include the ascending chromatic bassline that subverts my expectations as it suddenly jumps up a whole step in the middle. It’s not a strictly chromatic line, but it doesn’t fit into any scale that I’m familiar with. I like the VSTs you chose, especially the voices - you were able to make them sound like the ghost voices from the N64 Mario Kart Haunted Boardwalk level. There were plenty of other spooky moments for sure, some of them sounding unconnected, but I think that works in a spooky Halloween song! I think your use of percussion with fast ride cymbal gives the sense of a fast song which fits the theme of the jam. I like your use of xylophone, but it doesn’t quite feel prominent like the main melody, though the xylophone to bass guitar trade off is a memorable moment. Overall, great job and thank you for sharing!
