Control - My Dark Disquiet
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Arcade) - Fire! (1st. BGM)
ULTRAKILL - Deep Blue

MATCH 1

I liked the vocal Where the Water Tastes Like Wine songs like White Rider the most when I went through the nominations. Breathe the Black is a decent instrumental song. I like it the most starting at 2:17 and peaking at around the 2:30 mark. A common theme that I've noticed popping up in my writeups, it's a climactic moment of the song that I enjoyed a little more than the rest of the song.

I've enjoyed all of the Poets of the Fall songs that have showed up in this contest over the years since I participated. This is a little less metal than some of the other songs, but as a metal fan, I definitely enjoy stuff like My Dark Disquiet. Since their songs seem to have a good track record of making it into the contest, I wonder if I should try Children of the Elder God next year... It's a somewhat recent discovery for me that's definitely my favorite from this band that I've listened to so far.

MATCH 2

There are things that I really like about Blue Whitecaps and other things that weren't really a hit with me. That brief moment from 0:08 to 0:16 before the viola (cello? Not entirely sure) and a little bit of the guitar comes in is really nice. I'm not really feeling the viola here for some reason, though, but the piano comes in for a bit at least. 0:43 is also really nice. The rest, however, isn't really all that remarkable to me.
