VOTING RULES

- Each match will be between the songs representing each game, not the game as a whole. Please remember to listen and vote with this in mind! Any votes referring to a game name rather than a song name will not be counted.
- Listen to both songs!! If one is your literal favorite song in the world and the other is something you hate with a passion, listen to them both!!
- No alts, no rallying, no begging for something to get more votes, etc., etc., you know the drill.
- All votes must be delivered to the host within 24 hours of a match starting. If you would like to vote early, please DM me and I'll provide the match seed. If you change your mind and would like to swap your vote, you may do so. As soon as it is 24 hours since the match topic was started, you may not change your vote and new votes will not be counted.

Rough draw for Brawl

when I first heard Skies of a Strange Land, I thought it was a remix of Looking Up at the Sky from TitS SC

edit: how long has the game title for ToCS in this contest been wrong

Tetris: Type A is one of my favorites from Brawl and one I advocated to be in the main set. Love the orchestration on this one, and the piano arpeggiations and violin solo really add a lot to it. Din Don Dan Dan is nearly on the same level for me, such great bass and violin. But when the Gabriela Robin vocals kick in in the second half, that takes this one over the top for me. The key change and percussion solo in the last minute are fantastic as well. Pretty painful match for me, but my preference is clear.

Utawarerumono: Kuon is pretty nice. Very pleasant melody and the percussion is well-mixed. Skies of a Strange Land is by far the best song on the ToCS set. The violin is mixed with too much high-end sound though, making it sound too bright. But I guess this is typical for most modern Falcom violin. I do like the acoustic guitar solo quite a bit though. Wasn't expecting to vote Falcom today, but I guess I will.

Match 1 is way better than match 2, but the match 2 songs are also nice.

Tetris: Type A was a fun discovery back in the Brawl days, and it still hasn't lost its touch.

my feelings for type a kind of place it in the middle of the pack for ssbm songs. I don't know if it's because the soundtrack is so stacked and so varied. d4 is easy to vote for.

match 2 a little hard. strange land is a standout falcom song, but i just love ever single song on the utawarerumono set.
