Haste_2 02/12/20 10:27:41 PM #44:	175) Monty on the Run - In-Game Music https://youtu.be/bmpTIDTERoQ Composer: Rob Hubbard Score: 5.6/10 (Decent) VGMC History: VGMC III (lost R3), VGMC IV (lost R1), VGMC V (Lost to Battle 3 from Lufia II) Favorite Part: 0:10-0:30 THIS ranking might be controversial. >_> I suppose this is about as close as it gets to something grand among true 8-bit music. I dont like this one a whole lot but it has some positives. First, the negatives: the last half with the 50s rock n roll bluesy impromtu stuff s just.agh, no. And those sounds effectsannoying. I can understand why many like that part, but its not my cup of tea. Also, the sound in general is really muddy compared to most NES music, but I guess the hardware is to blame. (some of the noises sound like wet farts) Now on to the positives: The <i>beginning<i> is the best part to me. The sound effects at the start here are more to my liking here very suspenseful. The first section sounds so much like LInk to the Pasts Aghanim/Ganon pre-battle music! (maybe this is where Koji Kondo got his idea?) Its cool how the ascending harmonies rub against the same bass note. 0:40 is great, too those agile melodies are nifty over the changing chord progressions. 0:56 has those cool minor licks that get transposed up a few times then come back down! Yeah, most of my favorite stuff is in the first 45 seconds or so. And then it all repeats! Aw, yeah. It then develops through about 2:05 and repeats some ideas before going into the bluesy stuff. Overall, its a mixed bag 7/10 early on vs. 3/10 later on I guess Ill compromise and give more weight to the good part 5.6/10 it is! --- "Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those. It could be fun! So... what is a party?" "Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think." <cite>Haste_2 posted [p:934301899] in Haste2 ran...
