Top five in no particular order:
- Wing Ding/Staff Credits: Fantastic, upbeat melody, and getting to hear it with different instrumentations is awesome. Credits theme is particularly masterful, they way it flows, culminating in a sax explosion (saxplosion). so good <3
- Cannon Canyon: There's something about this I just love. Listening to it, I always get swamped with feelings of nostalgia and wistfulness. Flute solo is too good.
- Horn Top Hop: Makes me fuzzy inside. Wind instruments are the best.
- Alpine Incline - Mountain: This song encapsulates so much, a sense of departure, a sense of ascension, of adventure, of arrival. the feels
- Twilight Terror - Rocketbarrel: I really like the Rocketbarrel theme since DKCR and this is such a great version of it. I go nuts for that flute.
Honourable mentions: Busted Bayou, Start Menu Theme, Big Top Bop, Grassland Groove, Scorch'n Torch, Irate Eight (+ Tension), Trunk Twister, Snowmad's Island, Ice Spark Factory, Canopy Chaos, Amiss Abyss, Cool Athletic, Aquaduct Assault, etc. etc.
