Song of the Week - WEEK 82 Voting/WEEK 83 Nominating

The Elder Scrolls: Daggerfall (PC Game Rip) - Winter 1 : I like the song, reminds me of an FFVII town theme (maybe because of the instruments?) The ending is kind of abrupt, I guess it's meant to loop forever, until the player zoned. I guess it is a game rip, so you can't change much about that (if it was an OST of some sort I would be puzzled). Mediocre song. Won't get points from me this week though.

Space Invaders '91 (Game Rip) - Rounds 2, 11, 14 :Wait, a Space Invaders game with music?! and from 1991! Anyways, cool song. I haven't listened to this kind of music for a while, it's refreshing actually. But, sad to say, it just doesn't 'stand out' (I don't like that phrase I think...) as much as the other songs.

Rudra no Hihou (Game Rip) - Strange Encounter : Is it just me or is this extremely similar to the Dark World Theme from the Zelda on the SNES. Hmmm, maybe not, can't remember exactly. The music style is always fun to listen to.

Mushihimesama Original Sound Track - Shinju Heading to the Forest - Stage 1 : I've been hearing a lot of songs/music from Shinji Hosoe recently it seems, while before a few weeks ago I had no idea who he was. 'Simple' techno is refreshing a lot of times. Hosoe's melodies are pretty good, and overall synth/composition is pretty good to. Great song.

Let's Make a Pro Baseball Team! ~ORIGINAL SOUND TRACK~ - Forty Year Plan, are you finished? : I don't know why, but Jazz is usually a Hit or a Miss for me. This one was leaning to the 'miss' side of the scale, the first time or two I listened to it. But during this last listen it actually isn't so bad. Decent, no points this time.

Gyakuten Saiban Orchestra Album ~GYAKUTEN MEETS ORCHESTRA~ - Oo-edo Soldier Tonosaman : I had a feeling The Steel Samurai would sneak onto the Song of the Week stage sooner or later. This song is pretty awesome, although I think I like the OST (DS version) better. But the koto (right instrument?) is pretty awesome in this version. Great song, some points to Phoenix Wright this time 'round.

Gauntlet: Seven Sorrows - Unknown 14 : Great song. The song has a very interesting mood. Kind of has a mystical flow to it, along with an epic tone. The ending to the song is very well done. Even though it is slow, melody-wise and development-wise, it kept my interest throughout.

Ape Escape 3 (Game Rip) - Wintersville : Sadly takes last place this week, decent, but I say that more as a filler than anything else.

Awesome week, high quality nominations. I actually listened to this weeks batch plenty of times this week. It was so hard to divide the points up I kind of had to.

I had a hard time choosing which Armored Core song would be the most widely liked, but I gave up and just chose my favorite. I hope another Armored Core song isn't horrible, I just need to redeem the series it seems.

nvm, Just found a new album with lots of redone music, heh.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
