Wow, tough week this!
After two tracks that are pretty good, but I can take or leave 'em (AOF2 and Bomberman), Leaf brings the glory with Grand Finale Dance, a wonderful synthgroovepop song. Love the melody and progressions, very good stuff. Gateway also sounds pretty sweet, although coming after Grand Finale it had some big shoes to fill and it doesn't quite live up to its legacy either. Elan's Theme sounds really familiar in the intro, but I like it, nice sound and fun bass part. It's sort of being overwhelmed by the competition here, but I would've given it a point in other matchups I reckon. Airport ~ Heavyarms Stage is groovy and has a catchy lead, so it's right up my alley, although it is slightly busy by my tastes. Still, good stuff, definitely gets some points from me. The Spathi theme is admittedly mostly a nostalgic vote since I love Star Control 2 so much, but it is a really funny song and a marvellous fit to the characters in the game. Quite simply, the music of this game is hard to appreciate if you haven't played the game, but impossible to ignore if you have. And then we reach the glorious finale of this master's review of tracks: Chris "no, not heulsbeck" Huelsbeck. I can't praise this guy enough. Timeless Passion is particularly beautiful even by his standards I must say, I always love these kind of tracks. It reminds me of the K-Pax soundtrack, which is a very good thing indeed. So that leaves me with the problem of the point spread. I really don't know what to do because each and every one of these tracks deserves some manner of praise. I know I always like everything, but this is exceptional even by my standards. Let's try this... 2 points - Leaf Amusement Soft Vol.4 Special Sound CD - Grand Finale Dance 2 points - huelsbeck.com - Chris Huelsbeck's official Website - Timeless Passion 1 point - Shin Kidou Senki Gundam W: Endless Duel (Game Rip) - Airport ~ Heavyarms Stage 1 point - Star Control II: The Ur-Quan Masters (Game Rip) - Spathi Jam it back in, in the dark.
