Such a silly track. Love the quacks and midi horns throughout.

That percussion thing sounds like a guiro. Or is it a duck? Sounds fun either way! The main harmony reminded me of the old pokemon games a bit. Nice you still have the classic Jegasus straight melody running up the scale at around 1:30. But now it's in key instead of your usual chromatic.

So cool to hear you're taking piano lessons! Don't worry about having a hard time reading sheet music. It's pretty unintuitive at first and I can't imagine anyone who reads it found it easy to learn. It does help to have an instrument to relate to, and the piano is a great way to learn to visualise harmony.

Whatever's making the quack-like noises is a really fun sound.  The melody is upbeat and appealing.  Good luck on the piano lessons.  It's been a while, but I used to have to read sheet music when I played cello in orchestras.  That was a lot less complex than piano sheet music though because there was usually only one note being played at a time.  But I remember that after a bit you don't even really have to think about it.  You see a note on a staff and your fingers just automatically know where to go.  I'm sure it eventually gets that way with piano, too.

First, I LOVE the guiro and all of the percussion for that matter! Second, this is such a fun and quirky song Reading the lore and production notes brought me back to my music theory/composition college days. It is certainly a challenging endeavor but also a very rewarding one. Kudos to you!

love that youre taking piano lessons. I keep failing to prioritize my online ones but thats going to help a ton.

I think the track is happy and quirky and I got all nostalgic listening to it for the good old gaming days.

love the lullabye feel this has with the exotic feesh percussion.
good luck with the piano lessons, chords were always my fav part.
& right there with ya, i h8888 attempting to read sheet music.  My tongue flaps out of my mouth and i squint and i take forever

Like I said on stream, this feels like learning that the "sleepy little village" is actually quite busy! I love the cozy melody in column 6, especially how it gets reharmonized throughout. You make some really pretty chords out of throwing diminished triads in (I'm still not sure why I hear the first chord in the bars 3 and 4 as sweet, but I do). The fish ratchets make me think of a vibraslap, and putting a guiro and a vibraslap in the same song is peak. Looking forward to your adventures in theory

This is a lot of fun. It's cozy and with the title I imagine a group of robots of varying models sitting on a dock fishing.
Sheet music is fucking hard. I can decode it with time, but reading it on the fly is near impossible for me.

Fun fishing mini game music! 😊 I like the way the guiro implies the motion of reeling in what you’ve hooked.
