Solitude
Another Winter
Battle!!

-pressure cooker is pretty neat-- I used to have this high up among my vvvvvv track preferences, though I'm not so sure where it would place now. I think I've cooled a bit on its overall progression. still, catchy and fun.
-solitude really stands out in this grouping-- ambient, melancholy, chill, and mostly uninterested in melody, in direct contrast to basically everything else here. the more I listen to it the more this feels like a strength. strangely haunting, and more memorable than I expected.

-I have a strangely strong affinity for suwa foughten field, at least among touhou tracks-- it's because it always reminds me of the first normal 1cc I pulled off in a touhou game. if I was feeling saucy then I'd move to the beat of the pluck synth, trying to dodge in rhythm. it's tough to evaluate this track objectively, in that sense, in that it feels indelibly linked to that memory. I remember being a bit disappointed that it didn't catch my ear as immediately as border of life or necrofantasia or history of the moon, but it definitely grew on me after a while.
-another winter feels like a vgmc classic of sorts. I've been up and down on this track throughout the years but never outright negative-- it feels energetic and fun-loving, like the source material the game is based on. very stage-1 music-- a real 'outset of the story' feel.

-Battle!! still great? still great
-evolution era does some nice things with little synth flourishes and electronic percussion, though they're afforded little of the spotlight by the strings and piano by the end. sometimes the piano feels like it's playing the melody line of a vocal part. (I actually feel like this track would do well with a vocal version.) I think 1:42 is pretty cool, with a few layers that play off each other. I wish there were more of that spirit in this track.
