I've been looking at this deal for a while, and it's the last day to get it so let's have some fun with my donation amount!
- Nominated songs must be from a game available in the bundle: https://itch.io/b/520/bundle-for-racial-justice-and-equality - One nomination per user at a time, I'll try my best to be prompt with ratings I'll give $1 for every song I rate 8/10 or higher, if we don't reach the $5 minimum I'm not getting the bundle! I do have a semi-consistent rating system with examples in the RtVGM topic (8.0+ is somewhere between "uncommon" and "rare"): https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/78211948/939355068 Drop me those sweet indie tunes! --- -Abraham Lincoln ...

Celeste - Confronting Myself8.5 This fits my mood right now more than usual, super hype "final boss" theme that I still remember experiencing for the first time in the summer of 2018! NFUN posted... Celeste - Reach for the Summit8.0 Geez already setting me back 11 minutes...a very much uplifting and energizing song for the chapter following Confronting Myself in-game! The last two sections comprising Mirror Temple and Summit are my favourite - "Don't be afraid, you're almost there!" azuarc posted... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ba6WURSItDs7.0 Based on context this seems like a final boss theme or something like that. The general weird retro battle vibe is cool and reminds me of FLIGHTLESS, but some instruments are a bit too crunchy and 1:57-2:44 isn't too engaging. I like 3:28!

Super Ledgehop: Double Laser - Unlockable Girl ~ Star Azure Fantasy7.5 Well this is a familiar one...pretty cool that something like it is in the bundle! Honestly, I don't really distinguish between this and actual Touhou, so as usual it's fun enough to listen to but hard for me to find much upside in there. Snake5555555555 posted... Dreaming Sarah - The Violet Sky8.0 Nice and chill ambience here, I always love warm synth pads! Oh my god there's rain noises too, really happy that something quieter like this was nominated! Hbthebattle posted... Mirror Temple (Mirror Magic Mix)8.0 Another mysterious and chill purple-coloured song, definitely approaches 8.5 today but not quite to the level of Confronting Myself. Unfortunately had to die to Midnight Lady in the B3 wildcard, but Golden Feather Mix is the superior B-Side anyway!

From Orbit - Beetle Battle7.5 Haha this is cool, homey acoustic guitar but also menacing low brass?! Game appears to take place on a desert-like planet so it probably fits in that way. I very much enjoy the instrumentation, but composition itself doesn't interest me that much. NFUN posted... OneShot - On Little Cat Feet8.0 Iconic song! This was definitely the part of the game that made me go "I've reached a really important section..." - really cool nighttime big city atmosphere that sounds both comforting and unfamiliar at the same time. TheArkOfTurus posted... Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass - A Cocoon Throbbing in a Dead Man's Mouth6.5 It's...interesting...I'm sorry I am definitely the wrong side of the VGMC voter base to be listening to this song, the parts outside of 0:13 and 0:52 are decent though. Kinda reminds me of OFF at times, especially that synth choir! At least it did better than Beach Volleyball Massacre from my last ranking, which got 608/1000. GameBopAdv posted... A NIGHTMARE'S TRIP - The Wonderful Outside7.0 Yay more sustained synths, these are more "bright strings" than "warm pads" though. Overall I really like the feel of this in the same way as The Violet Sky, but have a harder time getting used to that sustained string sound.

Secret Little Haven - Secret Little Haven:8.0 How is this already the second song with rain noises...this appeals deeply to a part of me that likes big but simple synth chords, a wonderfully reflective track that would be an easy 8.5 if it was just a bit longer and had more time to develop itself! Appreciate this one. sergiocornaga posted... Milkmaid of the Milky Way - The Mountains7.5 Okay I see we are in the soft synth chords block, this one almost sounds like a Gymnopedie No. 1 song with those chords and that piano! Similar comments to the previous song, but the instrumentation is a bit too minimal for me here - it was getting really good at 1:28 before ending abruptly! NFUN posted... Epic Battle Fantasy IV - Dustblown Travels7.0 Cool D&D/Lord of the Rings grand journey feels, I just can't ignore the artificial-sounding violin without much to support it on the high end, but the didgeridoo or hurdy-gurdy or whatever is interesting! The overall melody and song structure is also a bit simple for me. Hbthebattle posted... Minit - Sharp Business8.0 I remember Klagmar uploading this song! I forgot if I listened to it. This is actually hype I didn't know Minit had intense boss battles and stuff maybe I should play it! 1:00 and 2:12 are really good.

Frog Fractions 2 - Rains of Renewal (Spring)7.5 I remember when I used this song in insane for my first vgmgg and no one got it! I don't always fully get to know songs before I use them, so I can genuinely say wow what happened at 1:40 that transition and following section until 2:30ish is awesome! The rest of the song just drags a bit, but I enjoy the magical fantasy vibes. On the original upload someone commented "was this intended as a pastiche to disasterpeace? you did it really well if so" lol azuarc posted... Night in the Woods - Die Anywhere Else7.0 Another song that's been uploaded by Klagmar! Makes you think......anyway this is one of the top games I want to play from the bundle! The song sounds like a cheesy love song a high-schooler would write for his girlfriend in the 80s, not at all like other songs I've heard off this soundtrack! There's a related video on YouTube that shows it to play during some rhythm mini-game, so I'm kinda surprised that it's as popular as it is. banshiryuu posted... Vision Soft Reset - Dual Rewind7.0 Oh no this never came up during BOST5, I remember always getting the game confused with Aurora Memoria because they were both "that purple game" to me. Lots of fun energy in this track, very danceable and engaging! cakophon posted... 2064: Read Only Memories Love Me Better8.5 We're in the danceable songs block now! This is another "normally 8.0 but 8.5 today" song, I love the unapologetically R&B/hip-hop elements from the main singer to the backing choir and even the sassy Lizzo-like rap verse. Great message about asking more of the crappy people in your life too. Don't know much about the game but might give it a try thanks to this reminder... cakophon posted...

Pikuniku Everything's Gonna Be Okay7.0 Cute and peaceful song! Not all that exciting, but I appreciate the small town vibes. I can't tell if that's supposed to be a cuica or dog bark... Place posted... Wheels of Aurelia - Wheels of Aurelia7.0 The song sounds Spanish but they're singing in Italian! I really want to see this in some spy action/comedy movie that takes place in Italy. Can't say I've heard anything like it before, my music genre knowledge only stretches as far as..."jazz"...I guess the vocals are kinda like Livin la Vida Loca or something. I like the parts where they say the title, not because I understand the words but because I enjoy the less-screamy backing vocals by themselves! sergiocornaga posted... Interstellaria - Sakari7.5 I like all the EDM/trance elements here, but on the fence about the chiptune sorry chipzel! Turned out to be more chill than expected, it would fit right in with The Impossible Game or Geometry Wars. The electric piano riff introduced at the start reminds me of Underworld from Kirby RtDL. 4:03 is the good part! azuarc posted... EBF4 - Crystalis Fantasia7.0 The instruments are better here than Dustblown Travels, but it's still another case of being too simple and repetitive for my tastes. Does well as semi-atmospheric background music though, and I like when the electric guitar + full drums come in. pyresword posted... Pyre - Grand Ceremony7.0 The harpsichord and unsettling percussion remind me of Umineko! The baroque/rock fusion style is really cool, but I don't find the overall song that engaging. Enjoyed the break at 1:30 at least! Will update list of ratings next post. --- -Abraham Lincoln ... Copied to Clipboard!
