Mirror Magic - FNF: Hotline 024 (The Medley Update)

[@BakleBoi]

The second I saw this track's name, I hoped it was a reference to the Celeste song of the same name. The euphoria that hit at 0:24 brought the widest smile to my face. Certified madlad.

[@drthvrdr]

Not only that, but I believe a large chunk of the instrumental (like in the intro) is actually a very heavily remixed version of that, which would explain why the whole track is named after it. I also experienced that very same thing, I love the Celeste OST and especially the B-Side mix for Mirror Temple.

[@ataraxianAscendant]

This one actually comes up first when searching for mirror magic on yt

[@ashkirby8896]

I love how this song samples Megalo Strike Back and Disco Necropolis in this!😄🤩😎👌

and "Mirror Magic" from Celeste!! (first at 0:24)

[@kaeruKola_]

If the freeplay song order is chronological, then this is the first time Nikku used other characters' vocals. Maybe that's why this song is called "Mirror Magic" (Edit: I know it's a Celeste reference)

[@H3O-]

is a reference too to Celeste 5B track

[@LumiOfFrost]

It's because it uses motifs from Celeste 5B OST Mirror Temple - Mirror Magic Mix

[@kaeruKola_]

@@LumiOfFrost Oh ya I've listened to the Celeste soundtrack, I just thought the name had a deeper meaning to it lol

[@KraziShadowbear]

I like how, considering this just the second song, it's sorta has a "Actions Speak Louder Than Words/Groovy Trickster" vibe to it or more specifically the action of singing familiar voices. Despite Megalo Strike Back being seen as "Chara's Theme" and most of the fanbase seeing Chara as the "main villain" of Undertale, in this song, it gives off more of the feeling of "Behold my power of mimicry!" without saying it straight out loud. All she needs to do is sing! It's funny, cause without even realizing it, she's giving many players who play this mod flashbacks of nostalgia to past opponents! A hidden power! XD Although, it makes me wonder how or when did Nikku come across these various characters to be able to mimic their voices. Or maybe she was in the same room or location as them (Maybe a background character of BF's many iconic rapping battles?) considering Tabi and Whitty's mimicked voices are their "angry phase 3" voices (or at least Tabi does). It might just be Nikku's voice mimicry "filter" that she has. Just splendid musical work, once more Saruky! Those little motifs in the back of this song (and all the others) are just little pieces of ear candy. 😆

[@yellowstarproductions6743]

Me too

[@mixedbrownies6009]

I think actually knowing the characters of whom she mimics is a better experience while playing the mod and or listening to the song because it has a more powerful and if I dare say nostalgic effect

Void is literally the best

[@aguyontheinternet8436]

I had to pause it to remember which voice that was

[@youcantbeatD]

This song goes hard from beginning to end, I couldn't stop bopping my head. which was an issue because My aux cable sucks and kept glitching out

okay uh, that happend to me too, but i got a new one 😎

[@yellya]

Love the use of Megalo Strike Back

[@peacefulpanda3800]

so many references! like celeste, skeleton boomerang megalo strikes back n so much other cool stuff!

i literally screamed when i heard old school skrillex samples across the update

Not just the end, it can be heard from the beginning and even during the song.

@@jcomet11299 Yeah, I noticed that whenever I was listening to it again

maybe its just bc i didnt grow up listening to skrillex a whole bunch but the devils den sample is such a deep cut LMFAO

[@Yuzu-oh2uy]

I love this beat and I love the mix of sounds.

[@infineoinfinite]

These references can't stop me from loving this track, and seeing Matt, Shaggy, Tabi, Tankman, A.G.O.T.I. (in his old voice), Cassette Girl, Void, and even BF voices in this one is an amazing touch omg

[@logoking8609]

I could hear Matt, Shaggy, Tabi, Agoti, Corrupt BF, Void, Cassette Girl, Whitty, and Tord. All in order of appearance. Someone should definitely do a cover of this, but we can actually see the chatacters.

[@conorhannon3352]

@@logoking8609 yeah that's pretty much spot on, though im pretty sure the one you think is tord is actually xigmund from martian mixtape

[@logoking8609]

@@conorhannon3352 Now that I heard closely, I think it's either Xigmund or Tord, but I don't know for sure. Also it wasn't corrupt BF, it was just Nikku shifting notes, at least it seems in the gameplay.

[@conorhannon3352]

@@logoking8609 well yes and no, it is definitely nikku shifting notes but i can't blame you for thinking it was corrupt bf since every nikku voicebank has a filter over it (most noticeable with bf, matt and agoti) as for tord/xigmund i do definitely think its the latter but its all up to interpretation lol

[@Zetagipp]

I hear that sample from Let It Go, very nice touch

[@LOUDGZiP]

Someone get on making these into individual covers for all of us who want our favorite characters together. Personally Tabi and Agoti. If you could flip between both sets of vocals it would be insane and I believe it will take off

[@LOUDGZiP]

Also Saruky you are incredible

[@LumiOfFrost]

The megalo strike back section is not Chara, it's boyfriend, in reference to the fact that Chara mimics the player in almost every way besides colors.
