So I just noticed it's actually in Dayvan Cowboy too! The vibraphone notes at 3:17, though it's slower than normal. It's *nearly* in Skyliner too at 1:35 - the third note doesn't play, but it's heavily implied by the chord underneath it. (If it resolved instead of hanging there it'd be there).

Yes, I've realized lately that there are a lot that I didn't cover. Some of them I even noticed before but I didn't think of them when making the video. Carcan and Buckie High are big ones. That's fine though, because it lets people discover some on their own if they want (and I know you weren't complaining).

Haha, someone posted a weird parody video in the comments of mine, trying (I think intentionally humorously) to look like a BoC youtube account. Their avatar is an inverted picture of a zombie-fied Whitney Houston, and they have comments disabled. It must have taken a good minute to sync all that up with my playing, whether you played it or did piano-roll midi input.

I'm guessing it's one of you guys?

Ha, class. Some funny samples there. :D

I'm guessing Sheol Boundary is an anagram.

Honorably Used?

Boundary Holes?
Bad Looney Rush?
Only Boards Hue?
Oh Bleary Sound?
Uh Soybean Lord?
