I did buy a flugelhorn in high school for smooth jazz solos. Now, I have the key to play the melody myself

[@sietskevisser4878]

Finally someone who knows it's a flugelhorn

[@jacquelinelabao4102]

They are so so awesome to come up with extraordinary music like this! It's like a breath of fresh air.

[@sappy5143]

god it's only been a year since i got this game, but it's already so nostalgic. picking your map from the four choices. watching those clips from the trailer right before heading to your island. having that campfire with the new villagers. I've had animal crossing games for so long, but New Horizons has a special place in my heart.

[@downbad4urdad]

Sometimes I just sit at the title screen of ACNH to hear this

[@franks8462]

I used to do that with KH1. Video Game music often doesn't get any appreciation outside it's demographic, and it's such a shame.

[@citygrlz]

Same Like I Love It So Much

[@GabrielleTollerson]

same though

[@85chany]

CZ same

[@StarrieMoonlight]

I did that loads with the other games too the theme songs always sound so good I just want to listen to it go in for a bit

[@realdemiurge]

I'm already can see myself after 7 years, reading this with tears on the eyes... Animal crossing will forever take a special place in my heart.

[@tara8004]

this was so cute until i read your name

[@mudkip984]

This hit a place in my heart This only came out like 2 yrs ago And im already feeling nostalgic

[@ninhuntress]

i’m having a really rough night & i stumbled upon this video & it’s making my night a little better. thank you ❤️

[@Ihavethekenergy]

This is wild, straight up sounds exactly like the igm Edit: ok yeah it's supposed to, but still

[@tinzalix8624]

Well, I presume they are using the same mics, they are the same people, using the same instruments

[@legendarydragon7097]

Logan Dixon probably because it’s the same as how they recorded it for the game. The only difference is there isn’t the added sound effects in post.

[@hello9477]

That's like the whole point-

[@callmedru]

You expect anything less from the japanese?

[@j_0anna]

the only thing that's missing is the little replies of a synth-y sound towards the end there (idk how to describe it but hppefully you know what i mean)

[@Rickby]

0:45 there’s a sound missing... if anyone knows what I mean, it goes like “do doooo...”

[@elusiveanmol]

This! That sound is what makes that track so upbeat and chilly! I alway listen to that "du dooo" before starting the game.

[@danielrivera9626]

I've always loved that sound, it's what makes the song feel whole to me and like the guy who commented before me, I always wait for that sound before I start up my game. I just wish I knew what instrument it was played on I can just barely not make it out

[@lunakittyyy]

I think that part has a bit of pitch bend too

[@mushiflo]

@@danielrivera9626 Sounds like a slide guitar to me.

[@Klffsj]

It's at 0:37 I believe (in the middle of the pause, right?) I thought that would've been in the string bass part (not analyzing it too much). Maybe he forgot to play it? Maybe I'm wrong and it's a different instrument they couldn't record from home?

[@crazyharrypotterfan2326]

Oh my god, brings back memories.. this sort of stuff makes me want to cry happy tears!!! 🥲🥲🥲

[@kimy7796]

Each of them are so amazing!

[@Mateo-my5qr]

Don’t lie, you’ve watched this more than once.

[@Floof392_]

How did you know

[@dunnohowtonamethis3908]

Yes 😆

[@Luuuiiisss]

Its just so nice to see how they play it

[@rythebeloved5413]

How did u found out

The only good thing that happened this year is Animal Crossing period.

[@Yorkshiriann]

And doom eternal

[@borisfernando2005]

The last of us 2, cyberpunk 2077?

[@CaxsiaTheDood]

Streets of Rage 4

[@izlshf5879]

Ahh, of course people have to suggest more games and not let this comment be

[@kayden2119]

airplanetastic y’all need to try and play other games. I swear half the switch user base thinks the only games that exist are animal crossing, Pokémon, Mario and smash

[@gamebros5611]

Over quarantine I played this game so much. Part of it was the music that stuck with me.

Everything went so well together

[@Cross-ns9vu]

The early months of the Covid pandemic, i bought ACNH because my friend was excited for it, and i of course wanted to join in with them and play.. We didn't play together much (because their in Austria and im from Canada) but when we did it was fun.. waking up and booting up the game to hear this theme will always be my favorite
