    That's cool. :) I always thought that song had a good rhythm (not necessarily a "mystic rhythm", but a good one ;) ).

    Thank you! I kind of forgot all about it and then heard my daughter's ring tone for when my phone calls hers and it was that bell part. I thought more people should hear that.

    necessarily a "mystic rhythm", but a good one ;) ).

    Yeah, it's a killer beat and really fun to play. The original intro beat was written by Alex (as I recall) on a drum machine and Neil translated that to the drum set and then I (back in 2019) translated it to a marching drumline. The "melody" in that cadence is Alex's ethereal intro guitar part slowed to half speed and arranged for the mallet percussion instruments.
