Id (Purpose) Immanence Man I could not take Fateful Confrontation seriously in round 1 because of that percussion, all I heard was a revving motorcycle engine and some incessant gunshot noises. By round 2 I had already started to appreciate them more for their role, and realized how much I enjoy the simple but powerful melodies the other elements have to offer. Gotta love that one motif that's also in The Enforcers and Merciless Savior! --- -Abraham Lincoln ... Copied to Clipboard!

By voting for Apex I'm giving Sight of Silence a harder time, and the two matches that follow are me voting against things I hold very dear. Still, I can't in good faith vote for the track I don't think is the best. I can only hope that other people vote differently. ... Copied to Clipboard!

25. Atelier Shallie: Alchemists of the Dusk Sea - Octopunch
Ive always liked this song. Atelier music in general isnt always my thing, but I really dig Octopunchs fun-spirited take on the accordion. I even like the guitar part that comes in at 1:30. Pretty solid track. Not much to say! vs. 12. Fire Emblem: Three Houses - Apex of the World (Rain) Hey, a 9. About time! Apex touches on a specific subset of music I normally like, which is melodic-driven epic songs. The choir and the moody instrumentation call to a deep sense of emotion thats very evident every second of its runtime. The recurrent motif (which I think is the theme of this game) conjures up images of reaching the end of a journey and youre not fully intact. Those types of songs really resonate with me. And god the singing coming in at 3:05 is pure gold. This is a very well-crafted, well-produced song. Im glad I finally get to vote for it last year I abstained in its round 1 match because I couldnt decide between it and Onboro, and then it ran up against Variations on a Ra Melody. oops and 44. Raiden V - Unknown Pollution I think I like this more than Apostles Maraud? Its hard to tell, they both strike similar chords with me. What I especially like about Unknown Pollution is those rapid-fire notes all throughout (for example, at 1:45). They lend a sense of urgency to the song and remind me of a different take on the BREAKING NEWS segment of Apostles Maraud. I also really like the piano run. Theres a lot to like here! vs. 53. Fire Emblem Awakening - Id (Purpose) This is yet another song with a fluctuating opinion. Sometimes its been as high as 7, sometimes as low as 3. Right now its a 4.5. It does some interesting things; I like the two distinct sections and how they naturally flow into each other, then back into the loop. And I like that accordion in the background (at least I think its an accordion), cranking out the most memorable part of the song to me. and 62. The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky SC - Fateful Confrontation vs. 60. War of Brains - Immanence Boy, this sure is a match. Immanence is just a song that isnt made for me. Thats fine not every song can be, and I acknowledge that. Fateful Confrontation gives me a headache every time I listen to it and its entirely because of that overbearing drum. It destroys anything positive I would feel about the whole song because it lasts the entire time and is just so loud that I cant focus on anything else. When I describe songs as in balance, this is an example of what I mean by the opposite. Ive never seen anyone else complain about this. Is it just me? Am I totally alone in my drum debacle? Either way, I don't like Fateful Confrontation and I will be very sad when it goes on to win the contest. Votes: Apex of the World (Rain) Unknown Pollution Immanence ... Copied to Clipboard!
