If you dont like FM synth, you wont like this. But if you appreciate a good brassy chippy song, check this one out. The melody is sort of lackluster but that surge of power the song does all throughout is more than enough to make up for it. 99/2545 @Disillusion Thunder Force IV - Sand Hell Toshiharu Yamanishi https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOzgUtumOo0 A strangely moving and heroic Genesis song. Really terrific bass here, and the melody is top notch. This is a soundtrack Ive always meant to dive into, so I appreciated this little glimpse into a track I wasnt familiar with. Sand Hell is both soothing and catastrophic at the same time, straddling itself on the precipice of emotion (theres a phrase). 98/2543 @JONA Tekken Tag Tournament - Yoshimitsu Theme Nobuyoshi Sano https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IsvB0s_bI9U no eye no ear no nose no hand no body no mind no shape no shape I love how futuristic this sounds, with spacey effects in the background and that robotic chanting of the mystic-sounding body parts. Its a very unique song, yet its one I could only really see coming from the Tekken franchise, the same series that gave us Yodeling in Meadow Hill and Highschool Love alongside classics like this. 97/2536 @-Chaos-Zero- Risk of Rain Returns - Surface Tension Returns Chris Christodoulou arr. Damjan Mravunac https://youtu.be/3YCBbw8LaOI?si=sMHYiOw5uhtYED56 Very cool song. The 5/4 time keeps me on my toes the whole time. I love the interesting percussion and compelling other instruments; they utilize rock elements mixed with electronic and keyboards. Im unfamiliar with the original version but this seems like it would be a fun spin no matter what the original sounds like. 96/2515 @Bane_Of_Despair Pyre - Thrash Pack Darren Korb https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LMZYnOml54 This distinctly feels like non-VGM to me (which makes sense, given that I associate you more with that category). The drumwork is really terrific here, as is the main guitar riff. I kept expecting vocals to kick in at some point, but Im okay that they dont this is a song that can easily stand on its own. The meter briefly changes up around 2:35, which was a nice surprise. ... Copied to Clipboard! |
