Description: MUCH higher quality links: Bandcamp: autodidactic.bandcamp.com/track/koto-breaker Spotify: open.spotify.com/album/2T8MFBPGaSerfTKhKLqM5s Newgrounds: newgrounds.com/audio/listen/1101169 This track was a nightmare to get finished and is basically the most Frankenstein collab ever - everything from project tempos being off by fractions of BPM to random source files being panned off-center - but it was definitely worth it, and we feel like we pulled out all the stops in making this feel like an epic koto music battle - like something out of a Japanese anime. Almost everything you hear from the string plucking to knuckle/wood percussion is koto with the exception of obvious additions like the flute, kick drum, and bass guitar that come later as the song progresses. This will be ear candy to those who have really good earphones/headphones - tons of detail and lots of frills, scratches, sub-melodies the more closely you listen. Enjoy!
