Posting right now to say I'd love a chiptune contest, especially since I wasn't around for the first one.

Nomination #20
Composer: ACE Album: Emil Chronicle Online Original Soundtrack Vol.2 ~Door of Neogenesis~ Track Title: The thing (hiding in darkness) Track Number: 13 Year: 2007 Catalog Number: AVCD-23308~9 Additional Information: This is way different to the two Emil Chronicle tracks that have been in the BSC, trust me. Uploaded to the FTP (hiding in internet). |
Nomination:
Composer: Danny Baranowsky Game: Fathom - FATHOM Track Title: Water Music Year: 2009 Additional Information: This is a Flash game, with no published soundtrack. This is an mp3 given to me by the composer himself (he's said it's fine to hand out). It doesn't appear on the website, but I believe that's because they'd consider it an indirect sort of spoiler. (You'd have to play the game to understand.) You can play the game for a few minutes to verify that this song is in there. Source: You can download it from my webspace. |
This week looks like it's gonna be a tough competition. Plenty of strong names and titles.
In the meantime, here's a nomination. I don't have a ton of info on it, but I do have the track and will upload it. Game: Pop N Music 10 AC & CS Pop N Music 8 Composer: Mr T/Tomoyuki Uchida Title: Goonies "R" Good Enough Track Number: 1-28 Additional Notes A fun remix of the original chiptune, which in itself was adapted from the original song. |
Oh man Crash, I love that song.
And just for reference, Mr. T is an alias of Tomoyuki Uchida. And here's a nom. Artist: Tsukasa Tawada Album: Moon Crystal (NES Game Rip) Song Title: Evil Forest (Stage 1) Track Number: 4 Year: 1992 Source: The NSFE page at Slick Productions |
Here are my votes for the week. Really like the old school tunes this time.
(3 points) Jetpac Refuelled - Jetpac Alternate Theme 4 (2 points) Accele Brid (Game Rip) - Main Menu (1 point) ToBi DIVINE Complete Sound track - PoFoo! (arranged by Raito) Special mentions for "Starship Troopers". Would have loved to give it a point had I not been so captivated by "Jetpac" and "Main Menu". New nomination coming up... |
Next nom!

3 Points: ToBi D+VINE Complete Sound track - PoFoo!
2 Points: Immortal 2 - Battle Squadron 1 Point: Baten Kaitos ~Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean~ Original Soundtrack - House of Cards |
Major props to ikkei and Klondike; I had those Fantasy Earth and Danny Baranowsky titles in my nom queue. I have to say that I'm not sure about Crash's nom, though; much as I like Cyndi Lauper, the fact that it's an adaptation of a movie song makes me uneasy. Maybe I'm the only one. Anyhoo:
Accele Brid (Game Rip) - Main Menu Not as fast-paced as the "accele" would suggest, it's nevertheless a solid bit of SNESin'. Atelier Elie ~Alchemist of Sarlburg 2~ Original Game Soundtrack - Sad Vampire This has all the Gothic chops I'd expect for bloodsucker music, and if it's not the strongest such music ever it at least acquits itself admirably. Baten Kaitos ~Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean~ Original Soundtrack - House of Cards Well at least no one can accuse this of being the same old Motoi. Sadly, it's pretty dull in spite of using some interesting instruments--probably another song that works better in the game than as a standalone listen. Immortal 2 - Battle Squadron Not at all what I expected; not very fond of the vox (no, I don't want to play a game) but the 80's style electronics are excellent. Kind of long though; could easily be cut in half without sacrificing any content. Jetpac Refuelled - Jetpac Alternate Theme 4 Hard to believe that this is the only other VGM credit of Steve Burke, who wrote Kameo. It's a nice punchy bit of synth that, while not spectacular, is nevertheless pretty fun. Shock Troopers 2nd Squad - Dark Matter (Boss A) The third synthy track in a row is also the weakest--there are some neat rhythmic tricks but otherwise it's a wasteland. ToBi D+VINE Complete Sound track - PoFoo! This takes the sound of Immortal and does it one better by presenting an excellent melody. Quite good, and the likely winner this week. www. richardjacques. com - Starship Troopers Suite While this does contain the standard drum beats you'd expect from a wargame track, it's also got a strongly triumphant feel and a few sections of contemplative sci-fi beauty reminiscent of Basil Poledouris. The Point Spread Starship Troopers Suite - 3 pts. PitytheFoo - 1 pt. Alternate Theme 4 - 1 pt. Battle Squad - 1 pt. |

3 points: Accele Brid (Game Rip) - Main Menu
2 points: Shock Troopers 2nd Squad - Dark Matter (Boss A) 1 point: Baten Kaitos ~Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean~ Original Soundtrack - House of Cards This was a pretty good week; I wanted to give points to a lot more tracks than I actually did, especially Dark Matter is tight as hell, is the rest of the album this good? |
2 points: Atelier Elie ~Alchemist of Sarlburg 2~ Original Game Soundtrack - Sad Vampire
2 points: ToBi D+VINE Complete Sound track - PoFoo! 2 points: Shock Troopers 2nd Squad - Dark Matter (Boss A) |
2 points: Dark Matter (Boss A)
1 point: Starship Troopers Suite 1 point: Main Menu 1 point: House of Cards 1 point: PoFoo! (Arranged by Raito) Those 4 1-pointers are really good, if all for wildly varied reasons. I couldn't find a single reason, logical or otherwise, for me to give Dark Matter 3 points at the expense of any of those. |

I was really impressed with the 4 tracks I gave points to (nom exclusive). Oh and about that. I'll stop nominating Atelier stuff now guys, I promise. :eagletear: Edit: What is this Richard Jacques propaganda |
There's a lot to love about this week, I'm not even going to give my nom any points. Always a fan of Shock Troopers music though.
