La Mer (44/64) / Return to Oblivion (51/64) Chrono Trigger (29/64) / rhythm-changer (37/64) I do not say this lightly but Stella is TOO HAPPY (also "Yasui") think I undersold Return to Oblivion, and while I don't actually think I undersold rhythm-changer it is much closer to where my mind is at the moment --- A hero cannot be defeated simply by making him die. ...

La Mer rhythm-changer First match very close. I love the way Stella pt2 showcases those cool rhythms on those strong notes, but the sort of "emotional aesthetic" it also does kind of makes me want to be listening to something else. Point of no return is solidly good all the way through. No part of it ever really reaches the cool rhythm/strong note stuff Stella does but also no part ever makes me unhappy to be listening to it either --- luigi says: "and" ... Copied to Clipboard!

32. Atelier Shallie: Alchemists of the Dusk Sea - Stella -Part 2-
This is really a lovely song. I picture it as a people running up and down grassy hills, potentially while dancing and carrying water buckets. Those bursts of mixed meter are very ear-catching. The strings are so full of life thats a good way to describe this song, full of life. Everything feels like its breathing as one collective unit. 7/10. Pretty good. vs. 41. Eschatos - POINT OF NO RETURN I dont have much to say about this song. It does a good enough job at what it sets out to do, which is to bulldoze forward with driving percussion and trademark Yasui synths. I guess Im not really into Yasui that much? I really like Massive X and probably a few scattered tracks here and there. POINT OF NO RETURN is fine. Its notable in that, while I just think the song is okay, it still manages to stay with me after it ends. and 15. Suikoden IV - La Mer More accordion. We sure love accordion here, dont we? If Stella is a great song for dancing around fields, La Mer is a great song for adventuring. Its sprightly and just as full of life as Stella. Ive been listening to this one for years, and its never grown stale for me. vs. 54. Final Fantasy XIV: Shadowbringers - Return to Oblivion Return to Oblivion does some cool things. I like the overall audio production, particularly the way the guitar and the percussion and the big bass work in tandem. I dont love the vocals though, and thats a big selling point of the song. Also I feel like everythings a little muddy, like the vocals get buried behind the other instruments? Regardless, I do think there are some nifty ideas. I love the backing instrument at 2:15, whatever that is. and 3. Chrono Trigger - Chrono Trigger Finally, a song in my top ten! This isnt even, like, in my top five from Chrono Trigger, but its so good. Mitsuda really knows how to let the SNES soundchip shine, using lots of brass and airy piano to craft a truly special melody. I especially love when the song finishes looping and turns into a bit of fanfare. Really, really solid song. vs. 10. Umineko no Naku Koro ni - rhythm-changer Finally, a song in my top ten! ...hey, wait a minute...! rhythm-changer is one of those sleeper hit Umineko songs. Its not a big zts trance epic or a soft dai piano lullaby. Its xaki doing incredible things with polymeter, and its just an exhilarating experience to listen from start to finish. I have linkage-alter above this (#8), not sure what Id take in a one-on-one. That would be quite the finals! Im not even voting for rhythm-changer here, but Id be very satisfied if it wins.

La Mer rhythm-changer My only thought when hearing Stella for the first time was "How can there be an Atelier Shallie song this good that hasn't been in VGMC or otherwise brought up before?!?" - maybe people argued too much over which part number to use...that romantic solo violin just UGH carries the entire song for me, Shallie really is a top-tier Atelier soundtrack. This is probably my preferred B winner at this point, though it'd be a close match against Id. --- -Abraham Lincoln ... Copied to Clipboard!
