This is great and I can't believe I haven't heard this until now. I love the sound design on this, especially the bells. Using the Nitrome jingle for those quick breaks was unexpected but it works great. I enjoy the contrast between the two sections of the original with the faster drum break.

Your description mentions sampling a few things from other Nitrome games/songs and I'm really curious what else was sampled. I feel like I should know as a Nitromian but I could only pick out the Nitrome jingle (besides of course the Cheese Dreams New Moon menu theme) but I imagine there might be some sound effects referenced or something like that. Perhaps it will come to me with multiple listens.
