Submission to Alternative Soundtrack - Music Jam #2

Theme: Animal Crossing - Sunny

My goal was to have this song 'sound' from Animal Crossing--calm/relaxing--but a bit more 'vibrant', as a 'remake' with a bossa/swing focus. I used OG-like sounds (accordian, perc, guitar) to ground the vibe, which also let me experiment with extra detail, while trying to keep it 'relatively sparse'. Structure-wise, I introduced multiple motifs, but not to a rigid structure for ear fatigue. The orchestration varies, with a contrasting swing section, as piano comes in. The ending's somewhat experimental, and I didn't exactly write this to loop per se, but I had a version that did.

Inspiration was from the trailer (also very 'vibrant') and listened to bossa/swing--found related piano tutorials too!

Everything was written in Fl Studio, and the guitar you hear is AGL from Ample Sound--highly recommend!

Hope you enjoy!
