Thanks for the link! I had no idea those existed

Nomination #5

Composer: Nazo^2 Suzuki
Game Rip: McDonald's Treasure Land Adventure

Get ready for some good fastfood music, people! (FTP ZOOM~)

Quick Vote x 3...

3 points: Söldner-X Himmelsstürmer Original Video Game Soundtrack - War Above the Clouds
2 points: Baroque - Music from the Original Soundtrack - Invitation To The Future
1 point: Yami to Boushi to Hon no Tabibito Image Sound Track - Deep Dream-Shadows

Is this one closing up now-ish, due to decent vote totals, or will it stay open a second week still? If the former, I will hurry and vote within an hour or so.

I guess there will be a additional week because I haven't said otherwise. Since the first round is almost over, I think this will be the last extended round, unless anyone objects.

No problem, bro, I hope you liked at least one of those OC ReMixes. Now that we have 3 mixes of Sewer Surfin' and none primarily focused on the other themes, the running joke now is "Hey, there are other themes from that game to remix besides "Sewer Surfin'!"

Not that those mixes kill the theme at all (they're all good and the theme's good), but I can't wait to hear someone do a great arrangement of some of the other themes. Not every theme was as top tier as Sewer Surfin', but I don't think I could say there was a bad stage theme in the bunch. If someone did justice to "Neon Night Riders", I'd be a very happy VGM fan.

3 points - Söldner-X Himmelsstürmer Original Video Game Soundtrack - War Above the Clouds
2 points - Sonic Blast Man II (SNES Game Rip) - Port Town (Stage 3)
1 point - Mr. Gimmick (Game Rip) - Good Weather (Level 2, Pirate Fuzzy's Ship)

And a nom, which I will hopefully remember to upload soon.

Album: beatmania Hiroshi Watanabe beat indication
Artist: Quadra (Hiroshi Watanabe)
Track Title: Deep Clear Eyes
Track Number: 4
Catalog Number: KICA-7930
Year: 1998
Sources: http://vgmdb.net/album/1329
Additional Info:

It's the exact same thing either way, doesn't matter which album you count it as coming from. This album is just a collection of Hiroshi Watanabe's songs from the first couple beatmania games.
-This whole CD is awesome, and Hiroshi Watanabe is the man.

3 Points - FantaVision Original Soundtrack - SOUTHISLAND ~ STAGE1,2
2 Points - Yami to Boushi to Hon no Tabibito Image Sound Track - Deep Dream-Shadows
1 Point - Cooking Mama (Game Rip) - Track 2
Close - Invitation to the Feature

Nomination:
DJMAX Portable Legacy <xxdbxx> - [17] Light House
Info: I haven't really found any official site to this one, but a bunch websites that have tracklists, so I'm not sure whether it's bootleg or only sold in Korea.

3 points: Sonic Blast Man II (SNES Game Rip) - Port Town (Stage 3)
2 points: Cooking Mama (Game Rip) - Track 2
1 point: Söldner-X Himmelsstürmer Original Video Game Soundtrack - War Above the Clouds

Port Town is such a fun tune to beat stuff up to. I like how everything sounds so clean despite the limited SNES sound. And the bass line is pretty awesome, too. Now that's been mentioned, it does resemble my previous Savage nomination. I guess I have a thing for weird vocal samples in my vgm. Glad you also liked it, Rimo.

And I would have given at least two points to Gimmick if it was any other track other than Good Weather. The game has much better tracks than this, like Aporia or Strange Memories of Death.

Cooking Mama - Track 2 was about the only track with some personality and charm this week.

Unfortunately, it is mandatory to distribute all six of your allotted points, else none of your votes count.

Though, perhaps you didn't know you have up to six points to award. Well, you do. You may distribute them amongst the nominated tracks as you like, provided two conditions:

• No track is awarded more than three points.
• You do not award more than one track a full three points.

Basically, the legal distributions are as follows:

3-2-1
2-2-2
3-1-1-1
2-2-1-1
2-1-1-1-1
1-1-1-1-1-1

What this boils down to is that each voter winds up offering support to at least three of the tracks. It's impossible to vote for fewer and have your votes count.

So, if you see this before sometime after midnight tonight, Dyesan, please amend your points accordlngly. Thanks.

Well, I'm personally disappointed with this result since the gold and silver placings were the two tracks I found least interesting/enjoyable. Also, ouch for Gimmick and Mama. Some muddled up placings this week!

I'm glad Söldner-X Himmelsstürmer got top spot. I was kind of rooting for it.

I might have been ignorant for the longest time but CHz, when did you become a moderator?!

Gah, I would've voted but I've been without Internet since Thursday (and still am, logged on at the library atm). That's what I get for always waiting till Sunday.

I believe I also considered nominating Strange Memories of Death (not familiar enough with the track titles to say for sure). I went with Good Weather after it got stuck in my head every day for a week (it's extremely catchy). It's a fun bouncy track that I really enjoy.

Two weeks ago. It's okay!
