As for the David Wise week, wow, mega surprise. Really everybody should have prepared a David Wise nom for such an occasion several years ago, but I have not. Will hopefully be able to find something worthwhile.

And frolicking to the FTP atm.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

The menu theme is better, why did I not nominate the menu theme. Oh well. Airport Tycoon 3 (Game Rip) - Gameplay 2 is still pretty darn good and hits several notes with me. Downtempo trance (or upbeat ambient) with a resounding theme. It goes nicely through the motions until the climax, where things get chillingly cool with a colourful development in the melody.

Man Jolt you should really go back on your medication! Your SotF tastes make even DK's look tame and mainstream (almost). I don't particularly like Gungriffon Original Soundtrack - Delirhythm II. I find it highly irritating and hope I am not becoming a square by saying that.

SNATCHER! I love Snatcher. Also Policenauts. Though the music in those games never really stood out to me; it all works well strictly as BGM. Konami Ending Collection - SD Snatcher (MSX), like I thought, doesn't do much for me when I listen to it actively without any other stimulation. Nice pensive atmosphere, though. I actually prefer the first half to the second half.

Hey this Last Hope Complete Soundtrack - Take This! song, I sort of like it! It's a standard, scarcely original affair, but I still enjoy it.

Mighty Milky Way / Mighty Flip Champs OST - World 3 (Water) is completely fine, solid, A-OK in my books. The retro style to the melody is classy and understated, but the track remains catchy. The piano bits are delicious when audible. The Switch Force OST is much better than this one though.

Funny, I've been on a huge Naoyuki Sato binge recently. "rain drops", "backdrops" and "Goodbye World" are all fantastic. Nekomata Master+ "Backdrops" - Chain of Pain has some faint Middle Eastern stylings which always appeal to me regardless of the genre context. I'm totally biased here. I'm also stunned that nobody has given this one any points so far. D:

I'm surprised no Garou Densetsu album has been disqualified yet, there have been so many noms from that series! REAL BOUT Garou Densetsu - Duck! Duck! Duck! (Duck King) is, uh, ridiculous...but a good amount of fun. ^.^

CHz you don't disappoint! Soldam - Sekiero Mode 3 "The Fairies Wait for Spring" is super vintage boppin' joy. Just way too short...
