Beatmania IIDX 28 Bistrover - Ignis Irae

I like the denseness of the sound here, like theres a lot packed into every second, but it doesnt feel overwhelming in a bad way. I also appreciate how it uses OMINOUS CHORUS to more interesting effect than your standard final boss theme. Its not really my kind of jam though.

In my notes I have not my favorite version of this theme. That about sums it up. Its a little too abrasive for me. I can take or leave GBA crunch but this has a little too much of it for my liking.

Alan Wake 2 - No One Left to Love

I really dig the unclear meter at the start of this song, where it seems to stumble over itself. Then we have this extended note and it changes up significantly, becomingI dont know what genre this is, it feels pop adjacent but its like intimate, stripped-down vocals. Then it explodes into something fuller. A genuinely cool song! This is the first placement that, were I to rerank everything today, would probably be higher; its landing for me a lot today. Sorry Rev! To those of you (us) who arent in love with the Old Gods of Asgard songs, dont shy away from No One Left to Live its very different.

One Step From Eden - Battle of Ice I

This is another song I always think Im going to enjoy more than I do. Its got fun crystally bits and a very poppy melody, but the total package is less engaging for me than I think its going to be. Ive had that reaction to other songs from this soundtrack too maybe its just not for me?

Yakuza 0 - Friday Night
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SaNmV7Sx5_M

Somebody nominated a song from Hypnospace Outlaw for this. If you gave me all 300 songs and didnt tell where any of them came from, but I knew there was a Hypnospace Outlaw in there, I would assume it was this. Theres so much 80s cheese in this. Its kind of delightful. Very interesting to compare with Kamurocho Lullaby, which is much more serious, whereas Friday Night is super goofy, the perfect song to kick back and dance to on a Wednesday afternoon.
