Days to Christmas countdown: 7 (One week left)

Exactly 128 years ago, on Friday, December 18th, history was made when Tchaikovsky's popular holiday ballet "The Nutcracker" premiered at the Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg, Russia. Today it is a popular tradition to celebrate this wonderful children's story with concerts and dance performances to Tchaikovsky's timeless score, and it has shaped many memories for holiday-goers and the dancers who partake in the ballet.

While the ballet was initially unsuccessful upon its premiere, over time, the story and especially the music has become very popular. One of the most famous compositions that Tchaikovsky wrote for the ballet is the "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy," which is notable for its use of the heavenly celesta.

When I started making music on Soundcloud, one of the first tracks I uploaded was a mashup of "Waterfall" from Undertale and "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy." Since then my musical style and polish have evolved and this holiday season is an appropriate time for me to share an update to this fitting track.

Happy 128th Anniversary of "The Nutcracker", and (early) Happy Holidays!

Note (12/24): Posting this early due to concerns of unsafe weather and potential loss of electrical power on the East Coast. Also consider this the finale of the UTAU 12 Days to Christmas series.

* You feel a strange sensation come over you.
* Things are changing, faster and faster.
* A place deep in your heart and memory...
* Starts to feel unfamiliar, unrecognizable.
* This feels like a nightmare.
* You feel something... DISENCHANTING.

I think this is the first ever Megalo to exist that's based off of "The Nutcracker", or a ballet in general. Hope you enjoy, and Happy Holidays!

Here's a guide for the leitmotifs:
- Bells (Intro/Brass): Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy
- Main Lead (Piano and E. Guitar): Miniature Overture
- Background Bells: Departure of the Guests ~ Night (1st part)
- Square: Final Waltz, syncopated to 4/4
- Brass: More parts of Final Waltz, syncopated to 4/4
- Slow OD: Departure of the Guests ~ Night (Transformation part/growth of the Christmas tree)
- Strings (End Solo): Decoration of the Christmas Tree + Waltz of the Flowers (latter syncopated to 4/4)

[Early Christmas Special] DISENCHANTED | A Nutcracker Megalo

Howdy! I'm HyperFlowey. I'm an UT/DR fan who has neat AU ideas under his belt; although I do have other, non-Toby Fox stuff to present as well.

Q&A:

Q: What AU projects do you own?

A: My AUs are as follows:
- "Leaptale: Dream Epic" (Leap!/Ballerina x Undertale AU with some original gameplay ideas) (currently on hiatus)
- "Reality's Reflection" (my take of Mirrored Inversion that attempts to be more like TS!Underswap in terms of expanding on characters' roles and how their actions shape the world around them) (in progress)
Check it out here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1k11bsNynS98FuGEzP1m3WNCdV4eFluR7DKnookRlFJY/edit?usp=sharing

Q: Do you take song requests?

A: It's perfectly fine to request songs, and I'm happy to do them as long as I have the time and effort to spare.

Q: Will there be any special music events?

A: Expect the usual [insert 100+] follower specials and maybe birthday specials, but there may also be an Ebott Roulette once in a while. It helps to have a variety of tracks so I don't get tired out, y'know?

Q: Are we allowed to re-upload and/or extend any tracks?

A: I'm on the fence about unpermitted re-uploads or extensions, though when I have the resources on YouTube I may extend my own tracks someday. If you're very honest about the re-uploads and ask through DMs, then I may allow you to download it, but otherwise please try to hold off on it. Cool? Cool.

Q: What about comments related to AU projects? More specifically, can we post joke comments on your tracks?

A: If the track in question's nothing serious, then I don't mind joke comments, but please make sure to respect the official AU material, whether it would be mine or someone else's. I kindly ask that we don't put personality swap comments in tracks for my AUs because it would undermine the point of the characters and story of the AU in question.

Q: What's your music making software?

A: My current software for making tracks is Garageband 6.0.5, though I may get a new software someday to allow for a more conventional style.

I hope you enjoy my tracks, and stay tuned for more!
