Animal Crossing: New Leaf - K.K. Disco (City Pop / J-Funk Cover)

Here's a cover of one of my favourite K.K. Slider tunes - K.K. Disco! Its quite a beautiful song actually, I love the chorus. I pulled inspiration from both the live and aircheck versions.

I took this song in a different direction instead of going fully disco - this arrangement is inspired by "City Pop," a style of Japanese funk music popular in the 1970s and 80s. Its a very feel-good genre that I thought would be fun to play around with!

The intro is a pretty big homage to one of my favourite city pop songs - the reference will be super obvious to fans of the genre! ;)
