Been a while since I last did this! I'm always on the lookout for something to add to my slowly growing Youtube playlist, so let's see what you all have in store.

Pretty decent. A little unremarkable.

Several excellent instrumentation aspects cover for some pitchy parts of the backdrop runs from the piano. Runs like those are important to nail, and this piece is a little off on some of the notation choices. There are also some transitionary sections that seem a little lost, sort of wandering waiting for a different motif to pick up and take it away.

For some reason, this reminds me of the Looker from Pokemon.

Extremely well-written, but a little heavy for my personal tastes with the shredded guitar sound. The organ parts are excellent and the synth voice fits in perfectly. Overall, something I'm adding to my Youtube playlist of music because the pros vastle outweigh the cons here. By the way, this is excellent use of runs in VGM. And the occasional distorted synth sound is pretty solid. Has a very Meat Boy vibe to it.

I'm a traditionalist. Give me nice, fluffy, sweeping symphonic melodies. Much like the Orlesian music in Dragon Age, this sort of piece whisks me away to a fantasy world immediately. I love being swept up in a song like this. Is it perfect? No. But it's exactly what I look for when searching for new Youtube videos.

Very unpleasant sounding. Atonal and simplistic. Repetitive in the worst ways. The only sacrifice here comes in the form of four minutes of my life I'll never get back.

The piano comes off as a deaf person playing a Kingdom Hearts fight scene. Luckily, after the beginning, the piece drastically improves. Enjoyable, light, perfect for studying. This came dangerously close to making my playlist - it probably could with time.

Another piece that came dangerously close to making my list. It's a little too... anime? It has too much of a sitcom feeling to it. It's fine but it might be too Three's Company for what I prefer.

Awesome. This has a Jerry Bruckheimer movie score quality to it. Also great use of vocals. For me, this scores highly and lands on my playlist.

Oh look it's a track from Bastion having a baby with Kid Icarus: Uprising.

You're lucky I like Bastion. AND Kid Icarus: Uprising.

I came very close to adding this to my list. Just a point short.

Holy shit these lyrics are terrible. There were aspects of the instrumentation I liked outside of the really bad Gavin DeGraw song. Hell it reminded me of some Diablo II action until I got John Stamos lead guitar bullshit.

Yuck.

This ended up being surprisingly good, and I kind of lost track of the piece. I was just enjoying it as a backdrop to what I was doing. In any event, I think I would have to give it another listen because it sort of snuck past me.

Xenoblade Chronicles X - NightL (Noctilum Day)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L1aBg6qIGdU" data-time="

I love the Xenoblade X soundtrack quite a lot, although I know that I am definitely one of very few people that seem to share that sentiment these days. Late in this piece, there's a great little penny whistle part that I really enjoy. It's sort of hard to quantify what makes this piece enjoyable, but it is.

Classical music with a bit of a house beat to enliven it? Sure, sign me up. This is the sort of music that I think should be mandated to play during students' final exams to make them feel both academic and also overwhelmingly dangerous.

It's got a bit of a soundscape quality to it, but something about it is just... unremarkable. It has a lot of little individual pieces that are interesting but not memorable. The instrumentation choices are good, but it's pretty significantly atonal, so in a vacuum, it doesn't really stand on its own two feet.

NieR: Automata - Memories of Dust
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvUMJ17jG6Q" data-time="

This is a strange situation because by all rights, this piece should definitely hit me in all the right places with its instrumentation and style. It's got all the components of a piece I would like. But for some reason, I'm not left with a particularly striking emotion after all is said and done. In theory, great. In execution, it's missing just... something.

The beginning was a interesting, and then there was a really jarring transition that didn't feel earned. The piece itself is pretty solid, although there are some spots with piano where it gets too atonal to really be enjoyable. The string melody is excellent though. And how often does a trombone get even a hint of melody? Overall, pretty excellent. Just a couple minor gripes.

It's still technically VGM right? Here's the orchestral version then:
