WTF :lol: ?

Great composition, but absolutely not my music, though I get the humor here.
With some vocals it could become a Wiesn-Hit :mrgreen:

I don't often listen to things this light-hearted, but I really enjoyed it. I'm also loving that cover art.

I make music as Tenaba! Bandcamp

Really great sound design, the horns and accordion are nicely done!
And the track itself is so cheerfull and out of trends that it really stands out, I'm sure you had fun doing it and hope you'll get rewarded for all that :D
