I dont normally see this specific style of fake chip too often; usually its like weird chiptune adjacent stuff, or chiptune mixed with rock or something. This shifts away from the C64 style into a fuller sound, but I wish it wouldve stayed with the chip. Just a personal preference. Its a fun song, but I didnt find it especially engaging. 219/4417 @sergiocornaga Double Dragon Neon - Mixtape - Weapons Up (Full Version) https://youtu.be/FuzMk3-0W5w This is like N.W.A., but less aggressive and more cartoony. The rapping feels a little, uh, amateurish? Maybe thats the production, not sure. The real draw for me is the lyrics. They rhyme with constable with obstacle and irresponsible, that takes a lot of poetic clout. I find this charming. 218/4354 @cakophon Taiko no Tatsujin 12 - Dun Aonghasa no Fuefuki https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJNNjy7L8vE In my notes I have this song down as music to listen to while skipping in an anime field. It would probably be higher if some of these notes werent so high-pitched. Like, pitch this down a little and Im sure Id like it a lot more. Shoutout to the odd time section halfway through. 217/4332 @GameBopAdv Tower of Druaga (Wonder Eggs) - Risolute ~ Dragon Castle https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cdt86_i-OAY An inscrutable song. I love the percussion and how it seems to build throughout. The meter is fun to try and follow too. This is a very unique nomination that I had trouble figuring out how to process, but I think I settled on this placement due to the fact that my focus waned a few times and also I just wasnt connecting with it all that much? One of those objectively this is cool, subjectively this isnt for me songs. 216/4319 @handsomeboy2012 Return of the Obra Dinn - Theme https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0asI8EoYy-E My note for this one just says BELLS BELLS That is my takeaway for this song. I like the old-timey Eastern European immigrant feel it has, but those BELLS are my favorite part. There are actually a number of bell-adjacent songs in this ranking; in this one, the bell samples feel very rich and add to the song. ... Copied to Clipboard! |
