This is such a clever nomination. It effectively combines two things I said I liked chiptunes and Miles Davis in a very literal way. Shnabubula here has made a chiptunified cover of Daviss All Blues, with their own spin throughout. There are so many little flourishes throughout that give the song its own personality and make it not just a cover, like the odd time throughout, or the periodic Follin-esque arpeggios. Ive always been impressed with Shnabubulas amazing way to make these covers or format restrictions work in such an organic, unique way.

If I gave out bonus points for effort, sergio would be near the top for this lol. Also I just realized "Kind of Bloop" is a pun too lol

Our first 10 in Immersion! This is a song that just swallows me up. Its got that big Portishead sound I tend to really like. Big chords, big synths, everything is big and cozy. But its cozy in a creepy way Momodani is an unsettling song. I could see this playing in a scene where a character is exploring a foreign environment, turning around twisting passages to see what lurks around the corner. I also love the tinny loudspeaker voices in the background. This is a song with a lot to offer, and given how I tend to have poor focus, it sustaining my interest like this is very impressive.
