Fittest - Original Soundtrack - Morsecode Neat and funky easy listening synth jazz. Cheesy at times, but nicely melodic and varied.

Garou Densetsu SPECIAL ~ Image Album Part 2 - A New Poem That Southern Thailand Wants to Tell (Joe Higashi) Not very poetic, or very Thai for that matter. It's innovative, but also hugely inconsistent and nigh annoying in spots.

Karanoshojo Original Sound Track "Azure" - Fairy's dance Not the sort of music I'd associate with fairies, but decent low-key salsa style meanderings nonetheless.

Leaf Piano Collection Vol.1 - Brand-New Heart -"To Heart" PC Version Opening- I love piano tunes, but this one was merely average all around. Okay melody, so-so arrangement and performance, and a feeling that it could have been a lot more entertaining.

Namco Game Sound Express Vol.5 ~ Rolling Thunder 2 - WHERE IS THE TARGET? (ROUND 4) Really wierd, alternating between something like late-era Mega Man music from the X series (which is to say competent but utterly anonymous) and a bizarre sort of synth swing. Neither part fits in with the other.

Pulstar - SEEN THROUGH (Stage 2 BGM) Promising, but ultimately doesn't go anywhere interesting.

RADIATA STORIES Arrange Album - HOPPING SUN I really like the way this works the original melody into something a lot more new-age, from the piano lead to the nice synth effects that give the piece a sort of dreamy atmosphere.

Tokimeki Memorial: Densetsu no Ki no Shita De (Game Rip) - Fireworks Interesting. Sort of a vague fusion of a quirky Earthbound-ish sound with an eastern atmosphere. I don't know that I liked it per se but it kept my attention.

The Point Spread
Hopping Sun - 3 pts.
Morsecode - 2 pts.
Fairy's Dance - 1 pt.
