I'll start off with a nomination (Herrkotowski from STC)
Artist: Manabu Namiki Album: Death Smiles Game Rip Track Title: Halloween Town Stage Year: 2007 Download: Send big files the easy way. Files too large for email attachments? No problem! Source: Dragon God gave it to me. It was apparently ripped from the arcade machine itself. There's nowhere I can't reach.

Begin nomination chain now.
Artist: Motoi Sakuraba Album: Forest of Glass Track Title: Fly! Year: 2008 Source: #gamemp3's This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |

Haha. Man, I foresee a few strong weeks ahead...

You broke the chain! I was hoping we could get at least a 3x multiplier on there. If you get 5x, a little-known SotW clause gives instant victory that week
I was speaking idiomatically. |

I'm so sorry. Where can we get a person to fix chains at this time of day?
What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |

I'll probably be migrating from STC to here for participation so you can just make this nomination from ZiggyGo since that's how I'll be participating from now on.

After my own extensive scouring of the internet, I've been unable to find sufficient record of Ryo Watanabe's composing credits beyond a few albums in which his efforts are dubious at best. Though he's part of the Namco stable, and they don't always list individual credits, it's not enough to go on.
Therefore, I withdraw my Nanosweep.2 nomination. Instead, I'll just give it up for free to whoever wants to hear it, since it's still a pretty cool song and it's otherwise ineligible for just about every contest on GFF. Nanosweep.2 - Dazzling Rays I will now nominate the following: Album: Genso Suikoden V Limited Edition Music CD Composers: Naoyuki Sato Track Title: Admiral of the Seas Track Number: 4 Year: 2006
How ya doing, buddy? |
There's nowhere I can't reach.
What's all this?

It was released on January 23; by the time it hits voting just about three months will have passed. And I don't think the album is about to become super-popular, either.
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
Having been posted on #gamemp3s as well--and composed by someone who hardly needs more exposure.
EDIT: Is the waiting period 3 or 6 months now? I like that Nanosweep.2 track. It seems to have an issue though, it only plays about 3 minutes... EDIT2: From below:

Nom: Album: Cold Winter Original Game Music Score Artist: Mark Willot Track Title: Helicopter Attack Track #: 5 Year: 2006 Source: VGMDB Track is very subject to change, as there are a lot of tracks I like from this score (also strongly considering "Cold Winter Front End"). Really neat style of music. I was speaking idiomatically.

I recall that people generally objected to only Genso Suikoden 1 & 2 tracks being nominated, as those games fetch premium prices on Ebay and are pretty well known in general. The later entries in the series have maintained more of a "niche" status, only being pursued by hardcore fans of the canon.
I don't really keep close tabs on what's been in the BSC and what hasn't, or how many companion tracks have seen entry. I'd go insane if I tried. My nominations are never based upon obscurity anyhow; I aim for overall quality. The "BSC" argument has never sat too well with me, as that's a different bird. Me, I'd be totally cool with allowing tracks from previous BSCs into SotW because an early elimination does not indicate poor quality, nor does it indicate popularity by any means. I would also like to point out that this nomination is from the Limited Edition Music CD and does not appear on the Suikoden V OST. I think this raises it into very reasonable eligibility.

3 points » GunViper (Game Rip) - Stage1
Reminds me of FFTactics without being derivative like some of Sakimoto's newer works can be. 2 points » THE MADNESS BATTLE GAREGGA PERFECT SOUNDTRACK - Fly to the Leaden Sky (Stage1 - Valley) Namiki is great. What else needs to be said? 1 point » DIGITAL DEVIL SAGA ~Avatar Tuner~ 1 & 2 Original Sound Track Integral - Egg Of The Universe Not bad, but too sparse of a track for me to consider it SotW material. Unfortunately, nothing else this week interested me as much. Additional Spam: Nomination: === Kaleb.G === * Album Title: Waku Waku 7 * Artist: Masato Araikawa * Track Title: Fight! Super Adventure Boy Rai (Rai Stage) * Source: #gamemp3s, VGMdb * File Location: NOM NOM folder (uploading now) * Disc Number: 1 (of 1) * Track Number: 5 * Catalogue Number: PCCB-00215 * Year: 1996 Additional Spam: Hey, I don't know how the hell this happened, but I'm missing the SotW nominations from weeks 0094~0099. Can someone upload them for me, please? Jam it back in, in the dark.

Another outstanding week. Too many good tunes, I don't even know how to assign points. Going for the underdogs this time then.

Bakumatsu Roman Gekka no Kenshi Arrange Sound Trax - Vicissitudes
At first it didn't feel like much, but then it grew on me with further listens. There's an undeniable beauty to "Vicissitudes" and although it did not make my life turn around, it was pleasant. Some instruments (notably the strings) sounded a bit too synthetic, but noticing it was created in 1998 and not being terrible, it's more than tolerable. DIGITAL DEVIL SAGA ~Avatar Tuner~ 1 & 2 Original Sound Track Integral - Egg Of The Universe Good electronic background music to set an atmosphere. Not much else to it. Golden Axe III (Game Rip) - Bloody Street An above-average chiptune that has a driving beat and interesting melodies. I particularly enjoyed the crystalline synth. However, it felt like I had already heard this tune before, although it never crossed my playlist in the past. GunViper (Game Rip) - Stage1 It indeed sound very much like FFT music. As much as this is a good thing, it unfortunately did not share the magic of the tracks I enjoy from that game. In the end, it had potential with its sound, yet did not amaze me with its composition. Sam & Max Season One Soundtrack - Bosco's A warm jazz piece, and quirky too! Very good vibe and performance, yet I find it's a little too diffuse and lacking a centralizing melody to be highly memorable. Still one of the strongest nominations this week though. Telenet Game Music Collection Vol. 1 - THE FANTASM SOLDIER VALIS (Opening) 80's POWER!!! As much as there's a retro side to my musical heart, this tune was short, plain, and uninspiring in my honorable opinion. I expected a strong melodic lead at one point, as this is what old Japanese VGM is usualy recognized for, but it did not come. Oh well, there's worse... but I've heard far better. Sorry, but thanks for having given me the opportunity to be exposed to it. The Dig Soundtrack - A River Canyon This is a beautiful performance, creating a quite soothing new age ambiance. There are times when I feel like listening to this kind of material, yet I'm usually rather in the mood of more dynamic music. THE MADNESS BATTLE GAREGGA PERFECT SOUNDTRACK - Fly to the Leaden Sky (Stage1 - Valley) Yay for jumpy, highly dynamic retro-ish shmup music! "Fly to the Leaden Sky" is neat, yet not the best SotW entry ever as far as I'm concerned. -------------------- (3 points) Bakumatsu Roman Gekka no Kenshi Arrange Sound Trax - Vicissitudes (2 points) Sam & Max Season One Soundtrack - Bosco's (1 point) THE MADNESS BATTLE GAREGGA PERFECT SOUNDTRACK - Fly to the Leaden Sky (Stage1 - Valley) What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |

So it's a gunshot spread for me. An okay week. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
Here's my next nomination:
Artist: Frank Klepacki Game: Legend of Kyrandia 2: The Hand of Fate Track Title: Zanthia's Funky Swamp Year: 1993 Note: Arranged version taken from Klepacki's website. I'll upload it to the SotW server. Jam it back in, in the dark. |
