“Bad Dog, No Biscuit” from the Cowboy Bebop OST

Oh my god, I forgot how amazing this woman’s work is. I’ve got GOOSEBUMPS.

Although the thing that impresses me most is the fact that the entire band stayed firmly on tempo the whole time. Speaking from musical experience, there’s a natural habit to speed up when performing, especially when doing rollicking, fun pieces like this that are already uptempo. This could have spiralled way out of control, but the fact that they kept it from rocketing away from them while STILL going completely nuts characterwise speaks volumes of their skill.
