I dont think you wanted an update on how your album performed, but in case you were curious, heres all the data.
What I meant was I didn't particularly care how it placed in the ranking. However, I'm very interested in hearing your comments on it!

So the good news: I love saxophones and you are the only person to give me a very saxophone focused song (Alfyns theme), so very well done on that end.
Carlos Eiene (insaneintherainmusic) was the saxophonist on that, he's one of my favorite VGM-focused jazz musicians.
Here are a few of my favorites by him:

Also, four of the musicians on the Eightfold Road album perform together on this video, which is a jazz/funk cover of Pollyanna, the main theme from the Mother (Earthbound) series, and it's epic:

the album performing eight battle themes in a row was very... not my type of thing. I wish theyd spaced things out a bit better.
Agree with you there. I often put the album on shuffle. I might end up outright changing the order of tracks in my playlist, even though I normally keep things in album order.

Still, I am quite thankful for the nomination. I didnt really expect my signature to attract anyone, but not only did it get one extra participant, it led to some songs that I truly loved. So thank you very much!
You're welcome, and thank you! I'm glad that you enjoyed them, and pleasantly surprised that one of them made it to #11! I derive a great deal of personal satisfaction from sharing good music with others. =D

Gonna track this thread, I'm interested in what your top 10 favorites were. I'll probably go listen to them.

If you're interested in more ranking of music, particularly VGM, I've been running a series of polls on the Classic Gaming board. It asks whether a game or its sequel had the better OST. I'm also running a series of polls where I ask which version of a game's OST was best (for example, if the same game came out on SNES and Genesis, which do you think was better). I make new rounds every 5-6 days or so. Another vote or post in those threads would not be unwelcome. ;)

I make comics on the internet, some of which are probably funny:
