I liked that, Billy. The more percussive sounding melody parts--like a xylophone-meets-electric piano?--were especially cool. I like longer, unpredictable melodies (as opposed to an obvious 4-beat phrase, etc).

Thanks bro....appreciate it. We use software to make music, but all the instrument sounds are sounds we sampled  and/or heavily tweaked. In this case, to get that keyboard sound in the middle of it, we took a sample of a Princess phone ring, and reversed it. For the main melody, it's that same phone sound mixed with a xylophone (good ear!).
