beatmania IIDX 23 copula - Routing
The Messenger - Bamboo Boogaloo (Past)
Chrono Cross - Radical Dreamers

MATCH 1

Coalescence feels very "lo-fi hip hop beats to study to." Until it doesn't when the song starts get a little heavier with the drums and other instruments. I think I like the softer parts of this song more.

Routing's a really fun song. I wish it was a little less distorted in how it sounds, but it has this cool future funk kind of sound. 1:13-1:41 is my favorite part.

MATCH 2

Bamboo Boogaloo is another fun song. The song picks up more after 0:32 when the extra instruments come in.

Can't really think of much to say about The Rain Formerly Known as Purple. It's nice to listen to the whole way through, and unlike Coalescence, it doesn't lose anything as the song gets more intense.

MATCH 3

Route 113 is nice. I don't really think of RSE music when thinking of Pokemon songs that I like. Though, it's certainly iconic! In a way, this song feels a little bit different from some of the other route themes in this game, and not in a bad way.

Radical Dreamers always feels really sentimental to me, and I've never played Chrono Cross before. When I listen to this song, I feel like I'm thinking back to a distant memory of this song being associated with a really important moment in my life, only it's a memory that I've never experienced at all. I feel like that makes no sense to anyone reading this though lol. The important thing here is that I really like this song! The soft vocals and acoustic guitar are really pleasant here. I'm glad to finally see this song in the contest in my time participating in it because I always liked it, but despite including it in support consideration playlists in multiple years, I never had enough room to support it (maybe I supported it one year, I don't remember).
