rwlh 03/18/24 1:01:26 PM #344:	80/2026 kamakazikila Hyper Duel - Cosmo Babylon Hyakytaro Tsukumo https://youtu.be/1r3iBxKXBTI So I dont love the opening to this song, but then it gets real good. The melody is great, and the arcade soundchip is put to great use. Really just an all-around terrific piece of music. The specific sounds this chip is able to produce lend the song a lot of gravitas; this is a song a VGM composer would write for a king. 79/2025 @bebr117 Galerians - Cain Battle Theme Masahiko Hagio https://youtu.be/G4ZwUdXTggs?si=v5sbhgL4-cWVVDx3 Can I just say that I was actually disappointed in how after the first few seconds of mostly static, this turned into, like, an actual song? I was really into the static. Ah well. For an actual song (lol) this is really cool. Lots of crinkly crackly sounds that enhance the song bursts of static, nails on a chalkboard. The pacing is slow but deliberate; its not in a rush to go anywhere. Like the dude in the video, it has you right where it wants you. - *8/10* - 78/2013 @Prody_Parrot SOUND VOLTEX EXCEED GEAR - TOKAKU=ALMiRAJ MYUKKE. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gm2PBlJNLbA Were now in the elite tier of music 8s and higher! These are, more than anything else so far, the songs I keep coming back to. This one is particular is what I call rhythm game sugar rush music. Not sure if this would be classified as denpa. Its got a little bit of everything: chopped up vocals, notes that sound like rainbows, glitchy effects. What more do you need? 77/2009 @Mihark League of Legends - Quinn And Valor Michael 1NST1TUT10N Barry, Christian Praeco Linke, Sebastien Chemicalseb Najand, Dan marignak Negovan, Alexander Scherzophrenia Temple https://youtu.be/nmgH1ZSBv3w There was discussion on Discord the other day about the role of orchestral music in VGM, particularly when it comes to AAA titles. I dont know if this song would fit that bill, but I would offer it to anyone looking for solid orchestral VGM. Its very theatrical, with plenty of flourishes (like the dip at 1:35) that surge and flow around a very compelling melody. I was very pleasantly surprised by this one, as normally I can take or leave such pieces. You also can tell I really liked it because there was an annoying key change near the end and I still gave it an 8! 76/2008 @failgirlema Abnormal Check - Fake-Bangla Akihiko Ishikawa https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_4XQBjid09I Okay, finally we get to a song that Ive actively listened to a bunch since my initial listen. The only other song I can say that about was Silent Dragon Last Stage (all the way down at #155), which was a recent hit for me. Fake-Bangla is just so catchy. I love songs with middle Eastern/South Asian vibes (sorry, not sure what culture this is meant to be evoking guessing Indian from the Bangla title), and its got a nice crunchy arcade sound chip to boot. The unexpected vocals were a real treat. Given that this game is essentially a quiz show, I have to wonder where this song even plays <cite>rwlh posted [p:979433115] in I rank 300...
