Farewell has some pretty nice piano chords, and I'm a fan of the percussion samples used here. My main issue with Celeste soundtrack in general is the presentation of the dynamic tracks making the tracks feel long and repetitive. This one's pretty good at making it feel like a long buildup. Good track. All-Conquering Tide is also really good. What a great combination of strings and synths. This one's also a pretty solid buildup-type track. I'm gonna go with this one because the synths sound better to me and the strings are really well-done. Eschatos and Yousuke Yasui music in general is very much not my thing. Don't really like how loud his masters are and his synth choices don't sound very appealing to me. SURVIVE's melody is ok, but that's about it as far as positives go for this one. Jake Kaufman is another person that tends to have unusually loud masters, and that's definitely the case in Credits. However, I definitely prefer the instrumentation and synth choices in Credits. Decent melody and some nice chords in here as well. Not sure if I like the fake orchestra in Brave Sword, Braver Soul. Melody isn't great either. I do like the Asian instruments and chords used though. The Cloudy Road, on the other hand, is basically the definition of "Maxcore". Emotional piano solos are like my favorite thing ever. Such a beautiful melody and accompaniment here. Fantastic song all-around. One of the easiest votes of my life here. Mixed day today. Some really good stuff and some not-so-good stuff.

Farewell SURVIVE Brave Sword, Braver Soul 1's tracks are well-matched. They both have good buildups but Farewell's payoff is better imo. SURVIVE gives me those good beeps 'n' boops I like. I like Credits quite a bit too. 3 is a difficult one, I always have a hard time comparing two songs that are going for very different things. I am weak for sad pianos, but Brave's progression is too fun to ignore. Good day! --- Very very slowly becoming a Final Fantasy aficionado. ... Copied to Clipboard!

All-Conquering Tide SURVIVE Brave Sword, Braver Soul As much as I like Lena Raine's and love Jake Kaufman's work, their opponents felt better to me. That's especially rough for me for Match 2, since Kaufman has been a long-time favorite of mine and I've only known Yasui for the past year or so already. As for Match 3, as soft and peaceful as the Nobunaga song is, I'm always a sucker for songs with faster-paced energy like what SoulCalibur offers. Sorry Kanno. ... Copied to Clipboard!

all-conquering tide survive brave sword, braver soul i'm not as big a fan of farewell as i'd like. i appreciate what it is trying to do, hell, idk if i would change anything about it if i heard it in game. it really feels quintessential to celeste. adding instruments as you go, as if you're, well, climbing mt. celeste. tide, meanwhile, is more my thing. it takes less time for it to pick up, instrumental and arrangement more my thing. survive is so thrilling and exciting! i don't normally have a lot of thoughts about eschatos. i just find the music to be very neat. the shantae credits music is very, well, shantae. the use of the burning town motif is particularly fun and playful. preference to survive, but not a bad matchup. brave sword is very thrilling! i grew up on this game and despite how much i've listened to this track, it is very blood pumping. i love the way it dips and dances, switching between high energy and quieter pauses before winding back again. very fighting game and i say this affectionately. once again, i feel like the gods are trying to get me to vote against kanno. the cloudy road is very breezy and dreamy. like sleep music, but not at all boring. i would honestly pick this over most songs from sc2 but not its opponent. ...
