[SotW] Song of the Week - WEEK 136 Voting/WEEK 137 Nominating

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Wow, and I thought you were mute again. Glad to know it's actually not the case.

I didn't mean to hurt, but to cause a reaction, to actually force you to post here and shorten a little your distance from this event. It worked!

I have no problem with nominations foreign to GFF or STC, and you posting about them here, CHz. The bothering is rather around how extremely minimal the participation of Dragon God is, to the point that I find it is unfair for the other SotW participants who actually put a little energy into making it happen each week. If you wouldn't want to participate, Dragon God, then it'd be simple and it would be like many people (and sadly several past participants), we wouldn't hear from you. But it seems you want to participate, yet we never see you. Only CHz has the privilege of being in your vicinity concerning SotW. I know you're a god, which could explain your distance, yet let us hear your voice once in a while, at least for the sake of knowing you still exist. I'm certain many people would appreciate that, me being the first.

So yeah, it'd be really nice to see you nominate (by yourself, although CHz does a top-notch job getting the message through) and vote, maybe not always, but when you find the time and feel like it. Put to the extreme, if everybody was doing like you're doing right now, I think SotW would be very boring: many nominations, all finishing with ties at 0 point (there wouldn't be any votes), and that would that. Plus, the name of the event would have to be changed to "Songs of the Week" (because of all those ties). Pretty bad, eh?

You don't have to write a novel about all your impressions, but dropping the points is pretty simple from my point of view. If it's not exciting enough or simply too much, I don't think there's much left about SotW. If nominating is all you want to do, well that's certainly a possibility, but I reiterate that I find it unfair for others in the long run.

Sorry for any hurt feelings, but at least I know my point got through. It will definitely make me happy to see you participate more, and I hope it will have the same effect on you. Peace.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I've updated my stats!

--------------------

Apidya Soundtrack - Sewer's Blast

Solid production, great rhythm, melodies are interesting, but not on par with those from my favorite Hülsbeck tunes. I wouldn't say this track is a blast, but it's good enough to keep and not flush down in the sewer.

Cold Winter Original Game Music Score - Fight in the Lobby

Original atmosphere, well executed too. However, I found the oppressiveness to bit a tad too much for me and couldn't connect enough to see something worth considering exceptionaly enjoyable.

Drawn to Life (Game Rip) - City Funk

Well, there are a few funk elements, but yeah, it's not the funkiest song this week. Interesting tune, yet I believe Franco's young age might explain why it is in need of some polish, in my opinion. He has good potential in my eyes, with his melodic style reminding me of David Wise at times. But for the moment, I find "City Funk" is decent, but not awesome.

Game Music Is Dead ~THE SUCCESSIVE KINGS~ - Super Takarazuka 3 (TAKARAZUKA)

I Can't Go For That (No Can Do)

Garou Densetsu WILD AMBITION Arrange Sound Trax - 11th Street (Terry Bogard)

Nice! I really like the hook at 0:45. Funky, quirky, deep sound, slightly retro, and varied are some of the reasons why it works with me.

Heart Session - Technical Power

There's more of that? Bring it on! I really need to explore more my saxuality; it makes my body become hot and sweaty.

OutRun 20th Anniversary Box - Rush a Difficulty 2006 Arrange Ver.

Another solid piece. But coming from the OutRun franchise, is this any surprise? I especially liked the piano solo. Although it's good for a racing game, the fast-paced rhythm can become annoying after a while out of context. I can take it for 6 minutes, but I wouldn't play this song on "repeat" for an hour though.

The Magical Quest Starring Mickey Mouse (SNES Game Rip) - Stage 4 - Pete's Peak

Sucks balls? I don't think so. The best thing I've ever heard? Neither. I'd rank it as below average according to my tastes; taken in a short bit, the melody is OK, but it's very repetitive and the sound is quite ordinary. Nostalgia might have saved the day here, but unfortunately, I've never reached stage 4 in The Magical Quest.

(3 points) Garou Densetsu WILD AMBITION Arrange Sound Trax - 11th Street (Terry Bogard)
(2 points) Heart Session - Technical Power
(1 point) Apidya Soundtrack - Sewer's Blast

There was some good crap this week!

How ya doing, buddy?
