IT'S CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!
First off, you're probably wondering about the title. Well, here's the story. The first few notes of the Slateport melody are oddly reminiscent of the Christmas song from "When the Grinch Stole Christmas." In that tune, the first few lyrics are "Fahoo Forays', so I decided to take those lyrics and slap em onto my album. There. That's it.
Anyway, if you haven't already guessed, this is basssically Canon in D. Original I was going to try and put Verdanturf into this feel, but it didn't work out. However, the disco kind of groove with the brushes came from a cover that Dirty Loops did of "Wake Me Up" by Avicii. I instantly fell in love with that track, and tried using that texture here, with obvious success!
