[SotW] Song of the Week - WEEK 157 Voting/WEEK 158 Nominating

Re. Hülsbeck: come on now, people. My feelings about banning a composer aside, four weeks was agreed upon (starting from my post and going down) as an acceptable period between Hülsbeck noms, in that two people said it was okay and no one else apparently felt like disagreeing. Last one was Week 150, easily past the four week mark. I am okay with this.

To be honest, I am more concerned about ZiggyGo's nomination. Not because of the 3 months thing, but because it's a synth/guitar arrangement of Tetsuo Kato's theme from Fighting Layer. Specifically, that worries me because a synth/guitar arrangement of Tetsuo Kato's theme from Fighting Layer took gold in week 145. They definitely are different–different solos, intros, synth passages, etc.–but when you get down to it, they're still basically guitar playing the same melody.

Here are both tracks, if anyone wants to compare:

Get the Flash Player to play this audio file: Tetsuo Kato (Fighting Layer Arrange Version) [Week 145 winner]
Get the Flash Player to play this audio file: KA-10 [ZiggyGo's potential nom]

Jam it back in, in the dark.

2 points: STAR SOLDIER [Vanishing Earth] ORIGINAL & ARRANGED SOUNDTRACK - SHIVER (MISSION5)
2 points: Technictix Remix Vol. 1 - Cell-Phone Boom
1 point: RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 (Game Rip) - Galaxy Trooper
1 point: Transport Tycoon Deluxe (Game Rip) - Cruise Control

Pretty much a tossup between the tracks I gave points to, not really a big difference in preference between the 2 pointers and 1 pointers.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I'll upload the file as it is.

Composer: David Wise
Album: Diddy Kong Racing
Track Title: Main Menu
Track Number: ?
Year: 1997

File name: 03_-_main_menu.mp3

Track 5 on the Japan-released Diddy Kong Racing Original Soundtrack (PCCG-00448), titled "Lobby Theme," is an OST version of the track you speak of. I've uploaded that here.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
