I like that Ether Vapor track! Never heard of the game before, apparently it's a shoot-em-up not an RPG.

Honestly, I hadn't heard of it either and I don't entirely recall how I found this track. Since I'm rarely into battle themes because they're too "epic battle"-y & final boss themes tend to be even more of what I dislike about the category, I wound up having to trawl Google and YouTube for anything I found interesting.

"Demon Lord" had a high-pitched, chaotic energy that made it really stand out. I wanted something from the Genesis and I was curiously drawn to how odd it felt. I'm still not sure how much I like it, but I have gone back to it frequently since noms ended to try to properly grok what it's doing, which is *probably* a good sign?

"OverDrive" was my last pick and I really don't know how I got to it, but it goes for a more subdued beauty than expected for a final boss song (especially from a shmup) which I felt might help it be distinguished from the pack. It lasted longer than I expected after some other song/s were cut for not being exciting enough, so I'm actually rather pleased it got as far as it did.

I really can't think of anything to say about the SLHRPG song, though it has the distinction of being the only nom of mine that I'd heard before nominations & I like it well enough.
