I have been waiting months to

"Tetrobot" instead of "Star?" It's like I don't even know you anymore.
|
Star was just a convenient fake chiptune punchline, and while I do love that thing to death, it's not my favorite and I don't really plan to nominate it anywhere. Though if anyone feels like picking it up, or Sand, or really anything else from the BTM soundtrack, I support the nomination of every last piece into every last music contest. Every single one.

"Gold" is the best track. Why lie?
|
(3 points) ClaDun x2 (Game Rip) - Dance of Kalmor: Like the bass, the interweaving synth elements, even dropping some piano in there. This has a Nakano feel to it.
(2 points) Attack Rate - Real Life: I know it's not, but it's got a Watanabe vibe to it. (1 point) Terranigma (Game Rip) - Prayer: Classic Terranigma right there. I should listen to the full soundtrack at some point in my life. |
Quick votes before I forget!
(3 points) Attack Rate - Real Life (2 points) ClaDun x2 (Game Rip) - Dance of Kalmor (1 point) Terranigma (Game Rip) - Prayer Special mentions: Jekyll and Hyde (would be great as a Yuletide nom), G.T.R. |

Tempting to ZIZZ it up for three straight weeks, but SotF is in desperate need of some Spain.
Nomination #75 Composer: Hidenori Shoji Album: Ryu ga Gotoku Kenzan! Original Soundtrack Track Title: baile con la mariposa Track Number: 20 Year: 2008 Catalog Number: HCV-0381 Additional Information: Kind of VGM Mainstream for me but I just really like this track so bugger it Attaching my song to a bull and waving a red flag in front of the FTP |
Well I guess I'm not going to close this on Sunday for Yule-related reasons, so how about Monday? You know, if you guys nominate and vote, which'd be nice.
3 points: Bucky O'Hare (Arcade Game Rip) - Stage 2: Planet Punk 2 points: G.T.R. - G.U.T 1 point: ClaDun x2 (Game Rip) - Dance of Kalmor I loves me some old Matsuo <33333333. Not that current Matsuo is bad at all because dude still rules, but I miss the earlier period in his career when he wrote prog/jazzy stuff like G.U.T all the god damned time because it's all super fantastic. What happened to Cloud City's stereo balance. :( (Also what's going on with Real Life's drums.) |
Last sotw FORTNIGHT I did not like the choices very much, but I enjoyed almost all of the choices this week a lot! A nice contrast from last time to me!
3 Points - G.T.R. - G.U.T 1 Point - Bucky O'Hare (Arcade Game Rip) - Stage 2 - Planet Punk 1 Point - Attack Rate - Real Life 1 Point - ClaDun x2 (Game Rip) - Dance of Kalmor I want to give points to a lot more, but the next most lenient threshold makes it like 111111111111111111111111111111111111 1 1 1 3 that should all be 3's. tyme for obnoxyous descryptions In approximate order from the piece of music that I enjoy the most to the piece of music that I enjoy the least G.T.R. - G.U.T I NOMINATED THIS ONE. THAT MEANS I AM VERY COOL. I ENJOY THIS BECAUSE nomination bias which is actually time signature shifting bias or something even though.......uh........this is basically in 4/4 the whole time INTERPRETATIONS ARE CUTE. UH..... but it is definitely not easy to count to 4 over and over again without everything exploding at many parts of this because the rhythms are so CRAZY syncopated and stuff and I like that a lot! A few months ago I started getting really into Matsuo's progjazzfusionEXPLODE side and me nominating this is a result of that! Piano synthesizer jazzy chords are cool funky wacky rhythms FUN Bucky O'Hare (Arcade Game Rip) - Stage 2 - Planet Punk Frequency Modulation Synthesis bias This is too cool, maybe I should listen to other music from "Bucky O'Hare (Arcade Game Rip)" and it could possibly appeal to me at a similar level. Attack Rate - Real Life This sounds kind of like FM synthesis bias Oh No! I also agree with Chuckster that it also sounds like Yasuhisa Watanabe bias without being by Yasuhisa Watanabe! I like Yasuhisa Watanabe which means I in turn like things that sound like Yasuhisa Watanabe as well. ClaDun x2 (Game Rip) - Dance of Kalmor I liked many of the chords that were on a thing. This had sounds I liked in it! It may be my favorite piece I have heard from this soundtrack and I have heard a lot more pieces of music from this soundtrack than I have any of the other soundtracks that are represented in this topic. AAAA I like that synth solo OH NO . I . Am . Moving . This . From 0 points to 1 point after re-listening to it! The Shadow (SNES Game Rip) - Maritech Labs I like the low pitch and portamento-y ness of a lot of the sounds. This has some kind of neat panning delay things along with the portamento ascending notes things that is very appealing sounding to me! Terranigma (Game Rip) - Prayer This sounds like music that would be to a Role Playing Game for the Super Nintendo. I enjoy music that sounds like it would be to a Role Playing Game for the Super Nintendo quite frequently. Especially if delay echoes are prominent and the melody makes me fall off of my chair because it is so GRIPPING. Except if that is taken literally in some interpretations it could be taken as having the opposite effect of being "gripped" by the chair no longer and then " """ " "" Super Stick Golf original soundtrack - Cloud City I interpreted this as sounding quite "cheesy." Often I like cheese, especially grated Parmesan cheese, spoonfuls of it. What is being talked about in the previous sentence? Oh yes, this sounds more like a type of cheese I dislike, I do not like pepper-jack cheese when you think it is not pepper-jack cheese because it is too spicy. Jekyll and Hyde original game soundtrack - Dr. Jekyll I believe I would have preferred this if it didn't sound like music that you would hear when you walked on the sidewalk and there was a (I thought it sounded too traditional and "boring" in MY INTERPRETATION NOT YOURS) Basically I liked all of them a lot except for Cloud City and Dr. Jekyll which I thought were "okay" |
2 points: Bucky O'Hare (Arcade Game Rip) - Stage 2: Planet Punk
2 points: G.T.R. - G.U.T 2 points: The Shadow (SNES Game Rip) - Maritech Labs Just missed: Real Life, Dance of Kalmor Good week, lots of stuff to groove to. Also, I think I've nominated so much crap to hit triple digits, so this calls for something special. Or not. :

I swear I will vote as soon as I can tear myself away from the holiday festivities. They will be the only points my nom will get, and I'll be damned if it goes down in history a zero-pointer!

Running low on nom picks on my end. Haven't been as active looking for new material.

2 points: Cloud City
1 point: Stage 2 - Planet Punk 1 point: G.U.T. 1 point: Maritech Labs 1 point: Real Life Just Missed: Prayer, Dance of Kalmor, Dr. Jekyll Monsterous week. Love love love LOVE the Bucky o' Hare soundtrack; I've been meaning to nominate something from that for a while now. NON at his.... uh... NONiest is one of the best things. Love Jonathan "Not Dean Evans" Dunn's The Shadow soundtrack as well, even though the SPC sets floating around the internet aren't perfect (the panning is really messed up on a lot of the tracks, many channels come out of only one speaker. Emulating the game shows that that's an error) which is why I have yet to nominate something from it. Buildings, in particular, is sublime. But oh my god Cloud City. Thing is solid as titanium. Dude's got that oldschool Nintendo sound down bit for bit. Cannot believe how perfect this is. It makes me want to buy an iPhone. I've listened to it so much that I feel it deserves the extra point (sorry, Prayer). |
Oh man Jolteon is finally gracing you guys with some of his writeups. The best. That one's pretty par for the course.
Nomination time here it comes choo chooo Game: Extreme Road Trip Title: Extreme Road Trip Ingame Composer: Souleye (Magnus Palsson) Year: 2011 (soundtrack release was August 2011) Source: Extreme RoadTrip OST - VGMdb I'll upload it in both mp3 and flac or something |
