Notes:
Queen's Blade: Spiral Chaos (Game Rip) - Flowers Blooming on the Battlefield does in fact cut off right after it loops. I have double checked this with the game rip. Don't blame me!

Server's back up. All should be fine now.

Just a heads-up: will be out of town until next Saturday, so CHz will have to make his second voting thread in a row. I consider the fact that I made an SotW-related Excel sheet last week to equal the work of 8-12 thread creations, lest you consider me a slacker :D

Mr. Gimmick - 3pts.
For the Love of You - 2pts.

Just bought this album today. Surprised nobody's nommed anything from it yet!

I think I know why (at least this is the reason I haven't nominated anything from it yet):

Hey, you. Stop making sense.

>_>

Very interesting week, less flashy than previous weeks but more consistent. A trumpet as lead instrument for a "The Sandy Beach of Ganbo" arrangement (!?!?!?) Iwadare sometimes puzzles me.

Is this possible? A Follin song I'm only giving one point to? :o Unfortunately it seems so, as this song isn't nearly as interesting as most of their stuff. Still, I have to get this rip, as somehow I don't have it in my Follin collection. Would whoever nominated this song mind uploading the rest of the rip?

I was actually thinking about nominating a track from VVVVVV. I had no idea there was a album release for it.

OK so something just clicked when I listened to the Follin track. Man, some of the beats are fantastic, I'm surprised I like it this much! Decent week overall, though point distribution was very easy for me. painful Iwadare trumpet-harp melody makes me sadface

You're just on time with that nomination. I also would have nominated something from it; bought the album last week.

I agree, good week. I had to use weirdness factor to decide this.

2 Points - Frozen Frog
1 Point - Deck XXX
2 Points - Unused? UNUSED? Too bad. One of the best chippy tunes I've heard in a while.
1 Point - Lol, cannot trust'em

Flowers Blooming on the Battlefield, well yeah not too long before they got stomped on dirty ma(e?)nfoots I guess, an abrupt e... Glooming uhh, moderate and steady. Truck Stop, truck march, truck stop, truck march, yeah interesting parts, but could use Window's defrogger.

Sorry I've been even more negligent than usual in the past week or so. I promise we'll get to theme week stuff next week.

Here's a new nomination:

* Album Title: The Best Of Babylon 5
* Artist: Christopher Franke
* Track Title: Bonus Theme
* Source: Products Detail
* File Location: Nominations folder
* Disc Number: 1 (of 1)
* Track Number: 18
* Catalogue Number: SID-8931
* Year: 2001
* Note: While the album essentially contains themse from the Babylon 5 TV series, the nominated track was written for the cancelled Babylon 5 game. The nominated track also appears to expand on a particular theme found in the game rip.

I've only encoded the MP3 out of the NFSE file, which can be found here. The rest of the themes are just as smooth. I've quite enjoyed the more ambient side to this Follin soundtrack that having to pick one song to nominate was a chore.
