Can't be accurate. I'm not at the top. Edit: Actually, someone ucoked the logs and I believe I actually am on top but I may also be mixed with several others

My favorite track from Undertale getting a chill arrangement? Don't mind if I do! Not that this impacts it's place on OCR, but it's funny how this arrangement does the opposite of what the source does and makes it sound more like the other tracks in the game, whereas the original takes the style everyone is used to and turns it on it's head with that loose live acoustic guitar. It's like you transformed the source back into an Undertale arrangement. Really neat. On to the arrangement itself, it's subtle in the beginning, but the way the source is implied by the synth textures is a great way to ease the listener into the meat of the arrangement. A great example of subtractive arranging - taking the source and removing elements, making it sound similar yet very different all at once. I appreciate good subtractive arranging when it's done well, like it's done here. It's shorter than the source so it doesn't get everything, but it doesn't have to; it's your arrangement, after all. Nice touch bringing up Hopes and Dreams at the end there (at 2:49), considering how closely related the "Undertale" track is to "His Theme". It's a solid arrangement. The production is great, for what it is. It's extra warm, as lo-fi should be. Just the right temperature to warm you up this holiday season, I'd say. Hope we don't keep folk waiting on this one, it's great. YES

It took a while for the theme to overtly kick in, but it was there in full force at 1:30 (earlier around :45 during the buildup). Moody, snowy, lo-fi, sleigh bells... I'm digging it. Sets quite a nice scene. Not sure why proph thought other Js may ding it for not having forward momentum; it's lo-fi. Not that the genre particularly matters for me; there's lots of ways to approach an arrangement and this has enough dynamic contrast, so I don't mind the mellower approach and more low-key energy. :-) Glad you sent this in, David!
