One Night in Neo Kobe City
Hope Given ~ "Dance of the Dog's Howl"
Fogbeasts

-(unlike, the rest of board 8, my taste is so special; that i have NEVER heard a fucking piano, or rap song. what the heck. who would have imagined that someone who has never been outside, would like "jazz", which is the genre of music with the saxophones. i am a genius by the way, i have played the piano before, which this song has in it (that's what you call the 'old instrument' right? like in the commercials?) but the pianos in this song, they are ELECTRONIC. HOLY FUCK!!!!! ! WHAT!!!!!! this song is so normal, and i am proud to be the most normal person in the world, unlike the rest of board 8, who is not normal, and all hates me and wants to put metallic pipes from their ar tonelico ears in their bulgarian nintendo-hating choirs (i know this is technically a sega cd game...but nintendo, ,,sega,,, same thing))-

-[wtf this song is MESSED UP. I can't believe you've done it board 8. a yule log? look at that picture of yoko taro's head on the cover of this artworkd? you know yoko taro composed the music to drakengard 1 right? which is a WEIRD SONG, so that means this song must be a weird s. i think this song is the perfect example of everything that is wrong with board 8. these people with no thoughts in their minds because they are too busy playing their favorit egames "LSD Dream Emulator" and "Ar Tonelico II" i love Koumajou Densetsu II: Stranger's Requiem - Rose-Killing Carmilla for not being ar tonelico]-

-(I have only listened to the first 9 minutes of this song, and i can already tell it's going to be a disaster, typical board 8. this is probably like my 9th favorite song from this soundtrack but it's the one i remember the most times. You would think that "modern board 8" would like this game, because it has the word Sigma in it, which sounds like SilvaGunner, the youtube uploader that uploads all our favorite nintendo soundtracks, or Mitsuo Singa, the guy who composes all the music to every falcom game. there's also that guy named super darky, but i think he's heard this song before, because it has a piano in it (you know, like the old instrument from the commercials?) Masashi Hamauzu always has pianos in these songs, the composer for masashi samurai melting cold steel liberal. And gatorade waste. I love to fill up my "bucket 0" with guardians iwithout my departure ticket.[three washed HELP ME VIOL[three washed H[three washed HELP ME VIOLINS]ELP ME VIOLINS]INS] and this is why masashu hamaushi is a conductor. when i go to the library i make sure to eat lots of prezels so that i get very fat so i can condduct the orchestra with my head phones on. and this is the song. I love this song. This song is everything i love about board 8, where I discovered Threads of Fate throuhg "stickam" in 2009 which led me to looking up every soundtrack by Junya Nakano which let me to looking up every soundtrack by Masashu Hamauzu. I still do not know which of the two i like more, but Nakano made my 3rd favorite song ever and Hamauzu didn't so that might be the deal breaker)-

-[ok i have to tell you about something boy. I used to HATE THE FUCK out of this song, i was so mean to it! but i am so sorry now (This is not sarcastic unlike my previous writeups btw), I actually grew to love this song between the span of 14 days ago and 1 day ago somehow. it has the "type" of melody i typically despise, where every action it takes is predictable to a degree i find genuinely nauseous. if this match were held like a few weeks ago, this song would be comfortably, easily last place of everything in so far. but i think growing to actually really like the "aesthetic" of the track has actually pushed enough of my buttons for this to cancel out anything i dislike about the melodic component? because in every other way aside from the melody I love the song. and even the melody that i hate i still love because it is like "pokemon main theme" where it sounds like a person could be singing about a "story" to it. I also think a lot of my frustration with this track was actually frustration regarding its context; i LOVE The sort of environment this song takes place in, futuristic garden dome, nature meets technology. but instead it sounded like a dumb cow boy song. except now that's exactly the type of song i want to hear!!! i just dont want to hear it in a futuristic dome with a bunch of plants in it (WAUIT FUCK ; I HAVE TURNED INTO MY OWN ENEMY/ hating a song that plays in a futuristic garden dome because i don't think it "fits" and i think that the melody is too "soulless".....oh no.....no.....it can't be) i love the combination of low quality artificial drums and "real sounds" at the same time. especially detached from the intended context, i love this song, somehow. i don't know how that happened.]-

-{I LOVE MASASHI HAMAUZU and i can't believe i like steam gardens now; probably the most violently i have turned around from "hatred of song" to "love the song" 180. steam gardens is still a 4/10 but it's also a 9/10 at the same time and that's why it is so milo thatch from disney's atlantis without your stupid obsession with guns}-

-(i showed this song to my mom on Mother's Day and she REALLY liked it which did not surprise me at all because she is really obsessed with music that sounds like "Hiromi Uehara" which this song sounds incredibly similar to to the point i basically assume that is the inspiration here. I have basically nothing in common with my mom at all and we extremely do not get along (including on music taste, "music that sounds like hiromi" is basically the only way her taste lines up with mine at all and we each hate everything else each other like); so i am glad there is that extremely thin fragment of musical alignment so that we can not completely hate each other. and I was so happy to show my mom this song and for her to love it just as much as i expected and just as much as i do. imagine an invisible extra +1 from her as an honorary vote from her for this song in vgmc. Here is what Hiromi Uehara's music sounds like if you are curious. it sounds like this song and i like that:

maybe these examples are not "perfect", i know she has some other stuff i think "this sound like video game battle theme" but these two examples flotation tank into my brain example stepping on the red man. Fog beasts has so many moments that make me happy like the constant 16th piano hiromi energy but my favorite part is the GROUPS OF 5 NOTES: OMG POLYMETER (1:58-2:05): what the fuck "mycroprocessir has inferior thought processes that is not emotional because of liking math"

-[i am 49 years old, the otldest person on the entire website board 8, there is no one older than me, not even norenxaq or nfun. But what i will say: this song is just like those rusty floors. that's what i love so much about akira yamaoko musisc. and the songs snake 5555555555 likes that sound like this. they feel like metal that has blood on it. you know it's like a "bad place" and that's so cool, but you still feel the "emotion" in the song because it is not "planetary nation" i'm going to beat you up. why doyou come too my school. and that's what this song sounds like. it's from 1994 when there were noo people alive anymore OH NO. everyone died. this is what the instrumentation to "grosstown traffic" by "zan-zan-zawa-veia" from "finely crafted fetish film" should sound like. I agree.]-
