Fond Memories

I thought I'd start my WeeklyBeats adventure by finishing a WIP I'd been wanting to finish for ages. I started this piece back on Father's Day last year in a one hour compo, but left it sitting unfinished until now. The theme of the compo was "fond memories", so I just kept it as a title, since it fits better than anything I could come up with.
Those familiar with Yasunori Mitsuda's music will definitely notice a strong influence from his PS1 era work (namely, Chrono Cross and Xenogears).
I'm still getting used to writing full-production music with fancy samples and stuff, but I think this is my best attempt so far (maybe!). It's the first time I've put a lot of work into humanization, especially by varying the tempo (though it could probably use more dynamics).
The song is actually about a minute and a half long, but loops twice.
Enjoy!
