So bouncy and fun, I love how you captured both the energy of an electric type with the spooky-ness of a ghost type, really cool way of interpreting and depicting Ghool! I did feel more electric type energy than ghost type energy though, maybe something like a theremin would've been a nice way to get more ghost-y vibes. Also, I'm surprised nobody mentioned this, but your title is just sooo good, it works on so many levels haha. Great job!

The song is fast paced and electric with spooky feeling chords.
Ghool looks like an electric ghost type Pokémon so my instruments were all synths to represent that cool electric feeling.
I used a lot of out of key notes at parts to make it sound spookier and more ghostly while maintaining its fun energy because he's just so cool! As such I though high energy fit him.
It's something I like to think he would listen to with those headphones.
I did the challenge of the Stair so the song starts with a good sized 4/4 section, then a short 5/4 bridge, before ending with a long 6/4 section.
The last part of the 6/4 section mirrors the very first melody line in terms of notes played but they are adapted to a 6/4 time giving them a different feeling.

Speed is just how I work. Whether it's with the songs themselves or how fast I make them. Sometimes I can make a song in 2 hours and that's just how I work.
You can just call me the fastest fish in the sea as a team fish truther.
