Animal Crossing New Horizons Theme Song?

[Lavamaize]

I was looking for an ACNH soundtrack and I came across the track they used in the ACNH trailer. In the description I saw the person say it was probably the main theme for ACNH, but I disagree. I noticed that in Animal Crossing Trailers they do not usually put the main theme, but on of the hourly themes. Also, in my opinion, animal crossing main themes are usually slower, and piano based, while this one is very upbeat, and louder with the main instrument as the trumpet. What are your thoughts on this, do you think this music will be the main theme for Animal Crossing New Horizons or will it be something else such as an hourly theme.
I can see why it could also be the theme as ACNH is based more on a tropical theme so the main theme may be more uplifting, but if it is, I am surprised not to hear the steel drum in it, as it was a popular instrument used in New Leaf, and has a very tropical sound to it.

I'm honestly not a fan of this track, but I have a feeling it will be the main theme since it doesn't really sound like an hourly track.
Sounds like a french horn, not exactly a tropical instrument, lol.

I like it. It sounds like a mix between all the previous themes, and it even has a section taken directly from the GC theme song.
Edit: ...If I recall, both New Leaf and Wild World had their main themes in their intro trailers. Not to mention that every other song we've heard in relation to the game is a derivative of this one. So yeah, this is likely the main theme for NH.

I'll probably grow to love it later on, but right now i'm kinda "eh" about it.

The trumpet(?)s remind me of Hoenn

I really like it! I would prefer the horn to be softer since it's a little too bold...
It would be cool if they started changing the theme to a night time version when you play at night!
But I agree with kemdi it sounds like a mix of all the AC games! ₍ᐢ⸝⸝› ̫ ‹⸝⸝ᐢ₎

I really like it!! Listening to it fills me with relaxation lmao

It's 100% the theme. There's even a variant of it in the recent teaser (14 seconds in).

I really like it personally!

The trailer theme is likely the main theme given K.K. sang it when he crashed the Splatoon concert at Nintendo Live.

 

[Blood Eclipse]

The music is pretty meh. It could use a little more energy, in my opinion. It sounds more like a something that would play in Nintedogs when taking your dog out for a walk or a soundtrack better fit for a cafe than an island. Maybe it'll grow more on me once I manage to buy New Horizons.

It's definitely the theme IMO. We've typically heard all of the themes for each game in their initial trailer.

I personally like it. I hear a lot of different themes mashed into it, especially Wild World/City Folk, which I'm most nostalgic for.

I guess this will be the theme song. It's not bad, but not really my favorite to be honest. Wouldn't mind if they use another song for the theme.

Honestly, I'm glad.

I hate the typical tropical instruments. NL had way too much tropical-sounding music IMO.

i actually think it's really nice! though i wish it was more distinctive - it sounds kind of like any other animal crossing music.

I like it and loved when K.K. slider singed the song at the splatoon concert.

 

[AlyssaAC]

Yep. I believe this song will be the theme. It's actually kinda catchy and very upbeat. I could almost listen to it all day if I wanted.

Me too! I hope KK does sing it so I can have a pretty music box version ♡♡♡

I hated the KK slider songs in City Folk (not played an AC game since), none of them particularly interested me. I like the majority of the main game music though.
