// Crazy Noisy Bizarre Town — Jerome Tan
// 136 bpm, 4/4, key G major. Source: midi.
// Generated by strudelify. One cycle = one bar.
// note: metre changes (4/4 at bar 1, 2/4 at bar 3, 4/4 at bar 3) are rendered on a constant 4/4 grid of one bar per cycle
// note: ch 6 "Flute" named as a pipe, played on flute (its electric guitar muted patch is not one); ch 7 "Saxophone" named as a reed, played on alto sax (its electric guitar jazz patch is not one)
// note: Transcription provider: pdmx. https://musescore.com/score/5837104; license: https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/
// note: Full arrangement: all 41 bars on a 16-step grid, each part at one level; ghost notes are separate "_soft" parts. Source detail keeps the original performance.
