Toxtricity 10/16/20 11:43:00 PM #355:	139rd Game: Core Awaken ~The Yuka~ Title: Code Error From Inside Composer: Hugakuya Nominator: Prody Parrot https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mr9tMT-X5co INNSANE intense techno with ACID BASS. sounds a lot more like the interesting type of techno than a lot of incarnations of this style imo. it doesn't really feel like it falls into any 'tropes' of this type of music, not predictable what sets of atonal notes it's going to use like a lot of similar atonal electronic stuff is, it's very genuinely random and artificial feeling. Something i'd compare to streets of rage 3 in that regard. the one part that is kinda stereotypical is the rhythmic stabs at 0:55-1:08ish which just make me think of THIS IS SPARTA but i don't mind that because this is sparta = nostalgia for 2007 youtube when i was vapidly into internet memes outside of their intended context and was artificially convinced that i thought a video was so funny because video game character i like says sparta over and over again while breaking a glass vase over and over again and destroying the concept of permanence and time linearity because the glass vase re-appears for him to break again every beaet of the song really great. parts of this feel like Junichi masuda hahaha, the same sort of kinda sloppy application of VERY C OOL synth sounds to a relentlessly artificial and heavy electronic realm. especially with that SPArta chord stab rhythm, feels like a lot of the erratic almost randomly-chosen-beats-to-highlight sounding stuff a lot of the weirder pokemon battle themes go for. one of the hyper-resonant sounds sounds like it's polymetric it's insane! doesn't seem to be 'actual polymeter' but there's lots of large portions where the strongest note of that slimy warpy acid synth sound is timed like in groups of 5+5+6 a bunch of times in a row. It feels even crazier than that because the accent is on the fifth 16th note of that pattern, not the first. so it's like (xxxxXxxxxXxxxxXx) and doesn't quite align with a 4/4 loop in some portions (because of how the loop gets cut in half when the chords change faster than once per bar). If you're not paying direct attention to that sound and trying to count it out, this all creates the illusion of 5/16-against-4/4 polymeter (note one of my exact favorite polymeter timesig combos) even though it is note quite that. All of those rhythms are extremely difficult to follow at the pace set by this track but they Are there and feel cool to me~! there's the random Classical Music part in the middle and at first that bothered me, but in hindsight i think it's kinda neat. A nice break from the electronic chaos to pretty much the entirely opposite realm of both composition and timbre, yet it somehow fits just perfectly? Both polar opposites are DARK and i think that's what helps there. Feels like you've gotten to the CORE of the evil computer machine tron rotating cylinder man and find out he is actually an anime girl that is a demon that is the anime girl version of beethoven and has $8273894058673490 in her mansion i like chaotic stuff a lot so, this means that most of the chaotic stuff is actually even higher on the list than this one. but THIS is absolutely one of the most relentlessly chaotic songs on the entire list. Arguably even The most. Really glad something this insane was nominated. --- time <cite>Toxtricity posted [p:945948859] in Mycro rank...
