In the meantime though, Tigran Hamasyan literally just released some VGM, so I guess I have a new nomination:

i want to note that i will be dropping any unsupported ones tomorrow (once i'm caught up on listening, i'd guess like 40 hours from now) though, so just be aware that these are on my chopping block as things stand
