Song of the Week - WEEK 59 Voting/WEEK 60 Nominating

No link to the Chudah's thread?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I'll keep comments to a minimum. I'm going through RE4 for the umpteenth time. (This game never ever gets dull.)

Batman - Not the most riveting chiptune out there, but competent nonetheless. It's just nice to see some NES love in SotW. (Personally, I think track 4 in the NSF is vastly superior. But the whole thing is well-composed.)

Cool Cool Toon Soundtrack - Some good pop elements mixed with a light jazz flow. The worst I can say is that it's repetitive, but at least the bread and butter of the track is worth revisiting several times.

Darwinia - Takes far too long to build into anything. The meter is also so slow it's almost oppressive. Not a big fan of this track.

Phoenix Wright - Props to the game for being quirky and engrossing. The track itself is rather shrill and I was never 100% crazy about it, even in game. It suits the mood well, I admit, but on its own it's only average.

Kyusai no Giho - The pace is pretty good, but WORDS WORDS WORDS. I can't understand what they're saying and that never sits with me. This would've been one hundred times better if presented purely as an instrumental with a guitar or piano substituted for the vocals.

Like Life Original Soundtrack - It was average. Took a while for me to feel as though the track was going anywhere. The subtle R&B influence is interesting to note in the bassline and backing synth layers. I definitely don't dislike this one, however.

Shadowgate 64 - This one's the weirdo of the bunch. I think the muddied textures in the track turned me off a bit. The melody feels too primitive and disjointed in spots to get any points from me.

Street Fighter EX2 - Within the first ten seconds I knew this was earning points. No complaints from me with this track. I like it. Nice pick.

A HUGE improvement over the last two weeks, yes. Definitely.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Yes, but the curse still stands; no chiptune's taken first place since Treasure Master.

Most amazing jew boots
