Jam it back in, in the dark.

This is the fourth week in a row I've had a nomination.

()

((if you're reading this, nominate something))

There's nowhere I can't reach.

2 points: Hyper Zone (Game Rip) - Neo Megalopolis
2 points: Ten Plants - KARINA ~hichimenahochi~
1 point: Landing Gear / Side By Side - Touch Down!
1 point: Resonance of Fate (Game Rip) - Albona (extended) (long version) (looped) (lengthier rendition than the one on the soundtrack)

I was unbelievably close to nominating Miki Higashino's monster of a track from Ten Plants (there's no other way to describe it), but KARINA is just way too damn good. Unbelievable instrumental, and I love that vocal melody.

Meanwhile over here we have Jun Ishikawa being JUN GODDAMN ISHIKAWA. Neo Megalopolis is everything I love about him. Definitely one of his best non-Kirby compositions.

I have absolutely no idea what's happening in In the Country but I think I like it.

Also, Kouhei Tanaka rules. As much as this week rules. Which is a lot.

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

Voting is closed and nominations are restricted!

1). [19] Resonance of Fate (Game Rip) - Albona
2). [14] Akumajo Dracula Best 2 - Praying Hands (Cloud Castle BGM)
3). [11/7.5] Ten Plants - KARINA ~hichimenahochi~
4-t). [11/7] NICE LIFE AS WIFE - Mischief
4-t). [11/7] Time Trax (Genesis Game Rip) - Title
6). [9] Hyper Zone (Game Rip) - Neo Megalopolis
7). [8] Landing Gear / Side By Side - Touch Down!
8). [7] Championsheep Rally (Game Rip) - In the Country

Aside from the runaway favorite, a pretty evenly matched week. I just about had a coronary when I saw that three tracks had 11 points, but thankfully the bonus points actually worked out this time.

Also I'm going to get rid of that "(extended)" thing when I post the RoF track on the site in a sec. It's already clear that it's not the OST version from the whole "game rip," thing, so that extra differentiator isn't necessary.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
