WOW, fucking excellent spot!

I write music for a living, mostly club music, a few years ago I had the idea that I'd learn to compose for video games and bought a very expensive textbook written by one of the industry bigwigs. TL;DR I probably won't be composing for video games because while I'm good at writing music, melodies etc, I lack a lot of the skills needed to write orchestral music. But what I did learn, is how complex, time consuming and expensive scoring / orchestral work is... in terms of getting a written score 'into a game' or film.

So there is no way that's an accident. That's deliberate, it's a very quick switch to a different melody that doesn't repeat. It's not note-for-note the Imperial March, but it definitely features the drums, and it's close enough. This imo is one of the most convincing pieces of evidences I've heard of so far, the others are a bit "Yeah I can see it but there could be another explanation".
