Absolutely love the writing in this, the sound effects, and the voice acting, comedy timing and such.

I like the cover art and how overexaggerated it is. I overall like the approach this track has. It feels really spacey and otherwordly, like if it was a race in a completely different universe, aliens doing their stuff. It definitely doesn't sound like a normal race, but I can sort of see the theme due to the amount of space here is. I really like the slower parts as well, although the drum part comes a bit out of no where. the drums are both way too loud, and they are impacted too little by the other instruments and the other way around. I think that that section would have worked much better if it was shortened to about the same length the other sections have had, as the first half seems really fun and original, with all sorts of twists and turns, and it really out of no where stays on a section that would work wonders as a short bridge between two stronger sections. It trully didn't warrant it's own minute in the spotlight when compared to the other segments. I think this would work wonders if it continued what was set up at the start, but as it is, it is a combination of two different tracks that don't mash together at all.

The beginning definitely didn't prepare me for the journey this track would end up being. I love the chords in this piece. I'm really keen on how carefully all of the instruments get introduced, like with the marimbas / xylophones, and that one final note that's off key right before the transition to the main part is just such a move to make. The progression in this track is wonderful, and the main motif is repeated throughout the piece in ways I wouldn't expect. I'd say the production is great, and mixing almost as much so, however I'd make slight adjustments in the two sections around the first minute mark, the other instrument that plays the melody there besides the xylophone/marimba seems to be a decibel or two at max too quiet. It doesn't sound bad but I think it should be emphasised more, and the squarey instrument that plays in the 1:30 section I don't think really fits the strings in the background. With all that, I still must say I really like this track.

I'm curious, did you guys make all of the covers for the songs in NGMC2025? They look really good. Overall the beat is strong, and even though it repeats itself, but it doesn't get bad due to the rather good structuring and tempo this piece has. I think the mixing also is really good here, with maybe the drum kick getting over the limiter just a tiny inch too much for me, but I don't think it's an issue with the song just a preference. I don't mind the lyrics in the bridge, although I'm curious where did you get them from, because the voiceline that starts at 1:44 I don't know how to describe, but it just starts really out of place. I think that the second part is a rather good continuation of what came in the first part. Overall this is a solid track with really good mixing, really cool choices in terms of instrumentation, and also a memorable motif.
