Ar nosurge: Ode to an Unborn Star - Class::EXPAJA
Einhnder - Madness
DJMAX Respect - Groovin Up

MATCH 1

Class::EXPAJA feels like a crossover between the Nier and EXA_PICO games in terms of music. I think it's distinct from other songs in Ar nosurge's soundtrack, but I still think it's really cool. The vocals are great and the choir is a nice addition as well.

I feel like I tend to enjoy music from later Mega Man games more than the earlier ones. Mega Man 10 in specific has some pretty nice songs in it. No Turning Back is pretty nice, but it's not enough to beat the beauty of the kind of vocal songs the EXA_PICO games produce.

MATCH 2

Wandering in the Darkness is a pretty relaxing song. I like the piano backing. The accordion and flute are nice too.

I thought this was gonna be an easy "vote Gust and Falcom" day, but Einhander proved me wrong here. Madness is a really cool song. It has this almost industrial sound that I think is really neat. Sort of reminds me of the Meta Ridley battle theme, only I think Madness is better and more melodically engaging for me. Sorry Trails FC :(

MATCH 3

Cotton Island is neat, but probably not the best representation of what I like about Plok's music (and I guess Tim Follin's music by extension). I definitely like the prog rock stuff from Plok like Beach and Akrillic. Boss is really cool too with Carpenter Brut feel. Stuff like Cotton Island, though, feels just like more casual background music and not something I'd actively listen to.

I am really enjoying Groovin Up's vibes. I feel like that style of "music that sounds modern but is clearly trying to emulate a retro sound" tends to be pretty cool. I especially like the "groovin up all night" part.
