rwlh 03/11/24 7:27:08 PM #266:	145/3484 @kamakazikila GITADORA Tri-Boost - Jauguar Ningen no Junan (Long Version) https://youtu.be/Xztei-bzB0U Hey its Kudo rhythm prog! I'm not always into this very specific style. This one has strings and guitars, already an uphill battle. It's certainly interesting but like a lot of prog I struggle to maintain my focus with so many new ideas constantly popping offhowever, the bit at 2:10 is great, and then again when it gets "softer" later; I like modulations like that. By the three-minute mark I really came around on this. This is definitely closer to Trajectory of the Kiyarora Satellite than Jupiter Guns Novel. Cool pick, and thanks for pushing me out of my comfort zone. 144/3474 @azuarc Final Fantasy - Flying Castle https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejJMXQWVvHs Two Final Fantasy drops in one day! This is another NES classic. Like everything Ive heard from OG FF, its got an impeccable melody and a very effective use of the soundchip. I especially love when the song slows down slightly before the loop, which is a nice touch. I dont fully know the context of this one but it strikes me as a good song for sneaking around. 143/3463 @Bane_Of_Despair The World Ends With You - New Born (Hybrid) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WipL4pF9F_k The final TWEWY song to drop, New Born (Hybrid) is a slower-paced affair than the other three songs. Its moody and would fit in well in the esteemed pantheon of 2000s alt rock. This was going to drop a little earlier but it has TICKING CLOCKS and we all know how much I love those :3 142/3454 @Mihark Pokmon Crystal - Eusine's Theme https://youtu.be/TWVm0ktFQTY Another classic chiptune experience. I did a Pokemon song ranking a few years back but there were apparently some high quality Poketunes nobody nominated for that; several of them have made their way onto this ranking, including some that havent even dropped yet. Eusines Theme is catchy, though Im not drawn in by the melody so much as by the overall crispness of the Game Boy Color, one of my favorite soundchips. 141/3365 @Fluttershy_Pony The One Button - Stitch 'n' Scuffle (Unused) https://youtu.be/Dk1UW8ue28o This song is hilarious. Its probably in the top ten, maybe top five in this ranking of songs that sound fake. Nothing is a real instrument in this; its all keyboards and synths. But isnt real instrument a little reductive? If you can make music with it, its a real instrument, thats my take. And this happy tune celebrates its fakeness. You couldnt get the same experience with a real mallet-based instrument, or with a real steel drum. From the fakeness of this song comes one of the realest musical experiences so far. <cite>rwlh posted [p:979317608] in I rank 300...
