spamtenna music motif rant
first of all, the thing that inspired this rant in the first place is this video on youtube, please go check it out first!!!!
i dont know if anyone else noticed this, but both spamton and tenna's music uses similar instruments if you watch fl studio deconstructions of them. the main places i noticed this were in NOW'S YOUR CHANCE TO BE A, It's TV Time!, and Hall Of Fame
in spamton's songs, one of his signature instruments is the orchestra hit (i dont want to have to link a bunch of videos in this one post so if you dont know what the orchestra hit it just look it up on youtube). specifically, in both NOW'S YOUR CHANCE TO BE A and BIG SHOT, the MMX orchestra hit is used. in TheWinterer's video on youtube, the parts where spamton is singing uses Moonside Cafe and Venus, but most specifically the MMX orchestra hit in the background as well.
in It's TV Time!, (this one took some digging), the specific instrument used in the very beginning is called Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 4 Soundfont 2 (TMNT4SF2), or the Konami Orchestra Hit. this specific sample is used in many old SNES game soundtrack's from the late 80's and early 90's; and i think that is important to mention because these were the types of games you would play on an old CRT TV similar to Tenna.
im sure many people have made this connection already but i feel it's definitely worth mentioning that in Hall Of Fame, you can clearly hear the Real Boy motif used in (you guessed it) "A Real Boy!", which is a spamton song.
my final point is that both spamton and tenna's boss music uses the orchestra hit as a main instrument associated with the characters, hence the usage in TheWinterer's song remake.
as far as im aware of, these are the only two bosses in undertale and deltarune that have the orchestra hit as a main character association. if there were any more then i probably wouldn't have thought it was important that spamton and tenna use it in their boss fight music.
thank you for listening to my spamtenna rant. please feel free to ask any questions or expand on this in the comments.
