No Excuses analysis loading screen (this one's a little longer than most)

So Ludwig plays a little solo phrase on his bass twice in the song, the first time at the 5:27 mark transitioning into the next part of the song and then at the 6:41 mark ending the song. It goes up, and then down, to the middle, then bottoms out.

Now I've been playing vidya games for a long time so I feel like I've got a good ear for some typical VG music. Water level music is pleasant until you're about to die, boss music is epic and sometimes scary, when the timer on a level is getting too low the music speeds up, things of that nature.
 
 This little phrase that Ludwig plays reminds me of death or game over music, especially with it's placement in the length and time of the music. 

I'm no music theorist teacher but I'm gonna explain this to the best of my ability.

Let's use SUPER MARIO's game over music as an example. The music notes go up and then down and then bottoms out. Like jumping into a pool, you run and launch yourself up and then let your body fall into the water as far as you can go. SONIC's music does the same thing. 
  There's one game that I haven't played much of because I didn't have a SNES growing up and only played one when I went to daycare. But Gambino has sampled the game before. 
DONKEY KONG COUNTRY was sampled in Gambino's song EAT YOUR VEGETABLES (I also thought he used it in AML but idk what song) 

I pulled up No Excuses and Donkey Kong Country's death music and found that they're ALMOST note for note the same. Pull it up, slow down both tracks and tell me they don't sound similar. The biggest difference I noticed is that Ludwig's version finishes the phrase whereas DK doesn't finish the phrase, like the chord progression. In DK the sound ends before the music hits the bottomest note and leaves you expecting that last note but it doesn't satisfy. The first time Ludwig plays the phrase, it doesnt't technically finish because it's continued by the rest of the music coming in and keeping it going but that last phrase he plays finally bottoms out and finishes the song.

Let me know if this does or doesn't make sense and I'll see if I can explain it better.

That's why I think No Excuses is going to be playing when Bando dies. It's implied by the music that inspired it.

Shoutout to David Wise. 76... (Fuller analysis coming soon)
