@@somebody9033 under normal circumstances I'd agree with you, but I think it's a different can of worms when you're thinking about stuff like this. Also note that it's quite possibly a deliberate reference that has extramusical reasons, much like how the Dies Irae chant appears in basically anything about death
@@somebody9033 agree to disagree, then. I tend to think of that kind of short quote as a homage, which makes it acceptable in my mind, but I also acknowledge it's a fine line to walk. In any case, this piece is hella cool - might have to ask around and see if anyone near me ever plans on programming it
