It feels like a great song for sneaking around, much like azus previous drop. I sense a theme! This song famously uses a timesig based on the Fibonacci sequence, but it still feels less like odd time than other, less complicated songs. I dont know why that is! Its cool, but I wouldnt put that as a principal reason for why I like the song. Its so evocative, particularly the part around 2:35. 84/2125 @UF8 Aster Tatariqus - XION Yoko Shimomura arr. Shota Horie https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=liCsjACEeJA NOW IT IS TIME TO MAKE A CHOICE This is a great guitar-piano combo, particularly the guitar solo at 1:25. The singer is wistful but authoritative (see the above quote). The whole thing has an overall good energy, like an epic rock song but more low-key, if that makes sense? I was surprised to see Yoko Shimomura on composer credit here should I be familiar with the original version of this? 83/2082 @TunnelScene Digimon World 2 - Kernel Zone Koji Yamada, Satoshi Ishikawa https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LAw46GqJcKA Bells again. Not just bells evil bells. This is Afternoon in Crossbells wicked cousin, who hatches potions out of pigs blood and sings off-key nursery rhymes to impressionable children. This feels like a very short loop but I dont mind that like the Your Time to Die songs, Kernel Zone is very effective at accomplishing what it sets out to do. Those off-key bells are really something else. Maybe for the next ranking I should stipulate how much I love bells 82/2053 DeviDoesNothing Sonic Rush - What U Need Hideki Naganuma https://youtu.be/neN6N5tKTTU I was given five Sonic Rush nominations, four of them by the same person, plus a song from Bomb Rush Cyberfunk. Until now, only one of those songs has dropped. I told you I liked Naganuma! Anyway among the other Rush songs this ones a bit lackluster for me, but Naganuma is like Nekomata, and lackluster for him is probably still a keeper. Not much to really say about this one; if you like Naganuma, youll probably like it. 81/2036 @skulltrumpets Kaze no Notam - Tranquility Ryuji Nishida https://youtu.be/6sf8KI6xEf8?si=byAj104Xd_shL1Gb Kaze no Notam is a very top-heavy soundtrack from my experience. I adore Phantom and Solitude (both 9s), and while I find other songs vaguely pleasurable, nothing seems able to cross the 7.5 threshold. Nevertheless, Tranquility is a really great song. The word immaculate comes to mind. Its such asensuous song? I derive great tactile pleasure from listening to it. Not quite a 9, but no slouch either. <cite>rwlh posted [p:979421978] in I rank 300...
