MSF2 - "You can't just throw Kaufman at me like that, bracket. It's pretty standard fare EDM, which is better than "average" for me, but that's just personal tastes, but I don't see it getting far beyond that."
RGD - I'm all for dissonance having a place in a music competition but that opener ain't doing it for me, chief, and this is someone who is 50-50 on the Drakengard entrants (spoiler.) The random piano flailing doesn't much improve it for me either as the song goes on, and the strings, which I like, are much too quiet in comparison.

Gurumin: Coming into this one a bit prejudiced since it's shooting to kill a nom of mine, and I'm still kinda "ehhhhh" on Falcom. It does some weird combination of flamenco guitar, flute, oboe?, and vocals without lyrics. I like it, but it's just... I don't know. Can I get over the prejudice?
MM11: No, I can't. My nomination; Para's been going over every mainline MM, and this is easily my favorite 11 track in a soundtrack filled with overly synthed stinkers. The electronics WORK for this one, which wound up being the trailer music. Not a contest winner, but happy to bring it to the table, at least. (For what it's worth, this was pretty close for me.)

Kaze no Notam: Groovy, funky, and made for headphones. Sounds like a high-energy platformer level, and I am ALWAYS keen on liquid drums+bass (RIP my white whale.) The ending I don't like very much, and it docked a few decimals (when I was doing numerical comparison) but otherwise, pretty cool.
Vesperia: I'm torn here and trying not to be too mean. I like the opening percussion, but it doesn't go anywhere, which is similar to the guitar itself. The percussion tries to carry it, but it doesn't do that terribly much. Or go anywhere. There's a lot of not going anywhere. Like not getting out of round 2 at the most on street cred alone, if it makes it that far. Hot take, I know.

[Brackets.] - Endless backlog. Presume I'm playing something MMO with some Indies on the side.
