Immortal
Nilah, the Joy Unbound
Superior Probe - Underworks - Scenery


I like the instrumentals a bit more than the vocals in Immortal, but it's a great song either way. I really do like that guitar part though. I don't know much about the game, but I definitely didn't expect a song like this from it. There's some neat stuff going on in paranoid, but usually this type of syncopation-heavy electronic style doesn't do much for me.

Nilah is a weird one for me. Good song overall with some neat instrumentation and pretty vocals, but I always feel like the song should be doing more melodically. Beat the Diamonds is a catchy upbeat chiptune. Not sure how I feel about the melody at the beginning but the rest is a lot of fun. Very close match here.

Underworks - Scenery is very good ambient music. It evokes a tense atmosphere while also incorporating all these neat environmental sounds and still managing to make it a reasonable separate listening experience. It's constantly changing also in a way that reminds me of a lot of the Neotokyo tracks. Big fan. Fast rhythm game music with loud percussion and glitchy sound effects has to be my most consistently voted-against genre in these contests. The piano part in World Vanquisher is great and I like the chanting elements as well, but they've got a lot of slack to pick up and just aren't quite up to the task. Honestly this seems like quite a "good" song, but this genre is just a non-starter for me personally.
