28. Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass
Nominated by @TheArkOfTurus
Average rating: 5.9
Overall thoughts: More tinny indie game music, but with a ton of personality.

161. Oh So Cool Castle - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wqveMjeE1g [4]

This is another soundtrack I trawled through looking for songs to use in a guessing game. What I found was An Open Window, which has since become a top tier song for me:

An Open Window, however, is nothing like the rest of the soundtrack. This set offers a similar experience to Lennas Inception, but unlike that set, the Jimmy and Pulsating Mass set has a ton of personality to it. Even the songs I didnt care for leave a specific mark, a sense that this is what the composer (who also made the game) intended. Yet again its more music I should enjoy, like the disgustingly named A Cocoon Throbbing in a Dead Mans Mouth, which might place higher with different instruments.

Favorite song: Righteous Scrabble. Another boss battle esque theme, this song is similar to Lennas Inceptions Showdown in some ways. The overall melody is pretty solid, and though it doesnt do anything super remarkable, its still a good listen. Bonus pick to Osaka Konnichiwa, which is way more unique, utilizing telephone noises, a woman speaking in Japanese (I think), and a grungy lead instrument for its catchy melody.
