Reasons-you-know-iHz-wrote-it: the chiptune's singing outclasses actual vocal samples  

Both tracks sound great.  I've never heard the original RPDR theme, but it's cool how the arps actually blend everything together.  Were they table-based?  I can't imagine ARP being that flexible (but I'm not a master).

Love the faux vocals and super sticky bass! Tight fun fun!!

I am unfamiliar w/ RPDR so all I got to go by is your tune: crazy good arps (and that `MULT` automation is perfect).

Thank you! I actually struggled a lot with this track b/c I felt like the vocal sample parts were always way better than the rest of the song. There were SEVERAL iterations of verse & chorus until I finally got a version that I liked lol. Yep, they're table-based arps. I very rarely actually use ARP b/c tables give me more control.

Thank you! I love funky bass lines. I think I have the most fun writing those lol

Thank you! I'm glad you liked em! I was thinking about putting together an EP. Maybe this would be a good final track to close it out.

This is such a groovy danceable tune! I was almost afraid we weren't going to get a classic iHz catchy melody but then you came in with that at 0:40 and it's super satisfying after that nice buildup. I really love the rhythm in this one, it definitely swings! Nice job.

everyone beat me to it: your chip vocals are better than samples.  very clearly "lyrics" and not a solo.  well done!
