Dimension Drive - Runaway https://dimensiondrive.bandcamp.com/track/runaway-jos-mora-jim-nez 7.5 Whoa almost-synthwave banger that definitely fits its title. Love the high-stress energy here, though I wish some of the lead instruments were more aggressive or otherwise stood out more. GameBopAdv posted... MewnBase - enchanted_tiki_86_0 (aka the title music (which might be the only song in the whole game??)) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rFSzlZZSS1I 7.0 I hate that game title pun! Part of me wants to give this 6.5 but I think my brain's just getting tired of all the ambient-like songs. The atmosphere here is nice enough and it has some cool moments like 0:15-0:38. DireKrow posted... Golden Treasure: The Great Green - Winter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6UpiipBG4ss 7.5 Cool piano-centric cinematic piece that reminds me of Ludovico Einaudi's work like Divenire. 2:59 is really nice. The title doesn't really suggest this, but it sounds like the beginning or end of a great fantasy adventure...I feel like it could work for both. NFUN posted... Epic Battle Fantasy IV - Crystalis Fantasia Went through the song again just to humor this post...rating is still the same! Hbthebattle posted... Minit - Sabasaba Desert 7.0 Has a similar energy to Sharp Business, but I didn't find this one as interesting. Very tempted to check out the game at this point though!

Frog Fractions 2 - Think On Thine Sins, Gumshoes! https://youtu.be/R49OBIeZmm8 7.5 Man there is something strangely captivating about this song...probably a combination of the fact that it's a slowed-down version of Carmen Sandiego, and that it's Gregorian chanting except each part is sung by the same person. The guy can really roll his r's! This is another game I'm interested in, I did watch a playthrough already and remember this being the first song I looked up! I still find it hilarious that out of all his uploads from the OST, this one is the most popular and has twice the views of the next most-viewed one. NFUN posted... EBF4 - Van al Tag Extended I guess 7.0 I don't know why it had to be the extended version but okay. I guess it's the piano's turn to sound artificial...all three songs sound like royalty-free/Flash game music from 2006, but this one probably has it the worst. Beats me why you guys felt the need to max out on nominations for it! Again, it's pleasant enough background music I guess. Overall, I'd say Crystalis Fantasia > Dustblown Travels > Van al Tag Extended azuarc posted... Super Hexagon - Focus https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wFv6SCKIQPg 8.0 You gave me a bad upload! This is probably my favourite chipzel song, though the backwards version from the soundtrack is surprisingly good as well! I really like the more explicit minor-key tonality in this track compared to the earlier two stages. Was one of my nominations for Gamebop's ranking too! Definitely gonna try this game out since it seems pretty short...why does HLTB say 6 hours oh no...... --- -Abraham Lincoln <cite>PIayer_0 posted [p:940731823] in I rate VGM...

PIayer_0 06/15/20 11:01:53 PM #56:	Out of 9 songs rated 8.0 or 8.5, I already felt familiar with 6, so I didn't have too many ratings to revise to find the top-rated "new discovery"! If we're talking all songs, I'd say Love Me Better edges out Confronting Myself for my overall favourite in the topic. The revised ratings for our contenders... ~~7.9~~ Dreaming Sarah - The Violet Sky (Snake5555555555) ~~8.1~~ Secret Little Haven - Secret Little Haven (Raetsel_Lapin) ~~8.3~~ Minit - Sharp Business (Hbthebattle) Overall ratings (turned out to exactly 30 songs): 8.5 Celeste - Confronting Myself (TheArkOfTurus) 8.5 2064: Read Only Memories - Love Me Better (cakophon) 8.0 Celeste - Reach for the Summit (NFUN) 8.0 Dreaming Sarah - The Violet Sky (Snake5555555555) 8.0 Celeste - Mirror Temple (Mirror Magic Mix) (Hbthebattle) 8.0 OneShot - On Little Cat Feet (NFUN) 8.0 Secret Little Haven - Secret Little Haven (Raetsel_Lapin) 8.0 Minit - Sharp Business (Hbthebattle) 8.0 Super Hexagon - Focus (azuarc) 7.5 Super Ledgehop: Double Laser - Unlockable Girl ~ Star Azure Fantasy (banshiryuu) 7.5 From Orbit - Beetle Battle (Toxtricity) 7.5 Milkmaid of the Milky Way - The Mountains (sergiocornaga) 7.5 Frog Fractions 2 - Rains of Renewal (Spring) (Toxtricity) 7.5 Interstellaria - Sakari (sergiocornaga) 7.5 Dimension Drive - Runaway (banshiryuu) 7.5 Golden Treasure: The Great Green - Winter (DireKrow) 7.5 Frog Fractions 2 - Think On Thine Sins, Gumshoes!

Its sense of rhythm really gets to me, I can't help but start tapping my foot every time I hear it. Although I recognize the name from when Klagmar uploaded it, I don't remember listening to it at all at the time (I usually check them out only if they're from games I already know), so I'm considering it a new discovery! Congrats to Hbthebattle with his deceptively long username! So, I've donated a total of $9 + (Hbthebattle = $11) = $20 for the bundle. Nice that it worked out to a round number, and it feels like a good amount for the games I'm interested in and how likely I am to actually play them. Thanks to all who participated, it was fun!
