Heh, I seem to be becoming something of an anti-conformist where SotW is concerned. I actually thought this week was far from boring... in fact, I'll go so far as to say that if any of these songs had been nominated in one of the previous two weeks, they would have received at least a point or two from me.

Capcom VS. SNK Millenium Fight 2000 Original Soundtrack - Bonus Track 2 - 50 seconds is a long time to wait for a song to get moving, and the sections of melody that I enjoyed were too brief. Those little sections are enough to boost my opinion of the song, however. If it had just been a little more focused...

Devil May Cry 3 Original Soundtrack - Vergil Battle 2 - Pretty entertaining (if not breathtaking), for the first third of the song... after that it begins to wear a little thin. Still, other than the exaggerated length, no glaring flaws; bass, rhythm, melody, are all well implemented.

Genso Sangokushi II Original Sound Track - Tong Guan Waterway - Rain on the Mountain - A pretty little song that catches my attention. The simplicity of the song itself makes it appealing. I have no real complaints.

LIVE A LIVE Original Sound Version - MEGALOMANIA - I liked it a lot. It doesn't really have a fault... other than it could use something to make it stand out more. I enjoyed the instruments used, and the nice concise length.

Myst IV Revelation (PC Game Rip) - Bomb Factory - Hmmm... the percussion used here is fairly impressive. Subtle enough not to be distracting, it nevertheless comprises a driving force of the song. It doesn't quite manage to become really impressive, but certainly enjoyable. Somewhat borderline, for me.

Plok! (SNES Game Rip) - Main Theme - My nom, and quite a nostalgic tune; I liked the song enough that I'd just turn on my snes and listen to it loop for a while. The harmonica is particularly striking, the melody memorable... overall, it's something that represents the high points of the snes era. It's quite fascinating what Follin was able to do with a mere eight channels.

pop'n music Inst Best - DRAGON DANCE revision-2 Very, very nice things going until about 1:30... the instrument implemented at that point is admittedly bad. Well, maybe more than just bad. Regardless, this song is quality - the overall effect of the melody/counter melodies and rhythm is very nice. Too bad for that one bad instrument - without that, I would have honestly given it 3 points, even above my own nom.

The Lost Vikings (SNES Game Rip) - Factory Beat - I never really considered the music of Lost Vikings to be good enough for nomination, but if I had to pick one, it would probably be this. The mechanical whirrings and clickings used occasionally for percussion, the above-par voice samples, and interesting melody pull this song above the level of mediocrity... but that's not quite enough to earn it a point.

~*Point Distribution*~
3 points - Plok! (SNES Game Rip) - Main Theme
2 points - Genso Sangokushi II Original Sound Track - Tong Guan Waterway - Rain on the Mountain
1 point - LIVE A LIVE Original Sound Version - MEGALOMANIA

It was between this song and Darkness Darkness, of the same album. It's possible I'll change my nomination, but not terribly likely.

Spoken for truth. I'm not sure why my tastes are so different than everyone else's recently... it hasn't always been that way. Maybe I should start voting first so that it doesn't look like I'm being different just to be different.

Really? While not my favorite (Akrillik had already been nominated), I thought it had at least the same level of quallity as the rest of the songs. Do you not like harmonica, or something?

-Nomination Change-

Can't be helped I suppose. I completely overlooked this song, and it's far more deserving than the other nomination I put up. Sorry for the trouble - there won't be any more changes (this week anyway, heh.)

Album: Phantom Kingdom Arrange Album
