As someone who thought XY's soundtrack was garbage, the way this particular song sounds excites me.
Well, garbage is probably a little harsh. Most of the songs in XY just weren't very memorable, and their instrumentation left a lot to be desired. Sure, the samples they used were """higher quality""" than what the DS and prior platforms could handle, but if I had to pick between something like the older Pokemon games and their unique sounds, or XY's "generic garageband samples", I'm rolling with the former.
Basically my point is that I'm glad they're going with a sound that seems a bit more "dated," I guess, because that will hopefully lend itself to more memorable and catchy melodies than what XY had.
This is not to say I think this particular song is perfect or even amazing, it just gives me a little bit of hope for the rest of the soundtrack.
And, everyone's kind of forgetting that we've heard the main theme of the game, and it doesn't sound anything like this song. Odds are that not every song in the game is going to be like this one. But let's all just immediately assume the best or the worst and scream at everyone who thinks otherwise, that sounds like a plan.
