Off-topic: If you want to hear something seriously questionable and/or unimpressive, I just watched a few clips of the Secret of Mana remake. The music is not good (
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kFKqZ5g9A2I#t=01m00s). They cooked it way past well done. Judging by the dislikes on the video, I'm not alone in thinking that.
More (
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lm0d1D0I5p8&list=PL0JUbdF--Lfg_c8jOsvgDny3cFkiT-qZN&index=2). The kick drum in "Together Always" is plain bratty. It's mixed so loud it's like the arranger was trying to prove a point. What the hell happened.
eeeeeeeeeeee the section of Into the Thick of It you just linked to is such a garble I checked winamp and my browser tabs to make sure there wasn't a second tune playing over it simultaneously. A Curious Tale is one of the worst things I have ever....
Is this even real or is this some 14 year old's basement project that got spoofed into an "official" release?
Wow that is rock bottom.
The arrangement credits include Kikuta and Koshiro how did this even.... yikes
arthurgolden
02-28-2018, 06:33 AM
Kikuta and Koshiro did this?!?
EDIT: And Kikuta's directly responsible for some of the worst of it. I'm speechless. Though there are plenty of other dirty hands. According to VGMdb (
https://vgmdb.net/album/73689), the arrangers included ARM, Noriyuki Kamikura, Kikuo, Hiroki Kikuta, Yuzo Koshiro, sasakure.UK, Junichi Sato, Haruka Shimotsuki, Tsuyoshi Sekito, Koji Yamaoka, DE DE MOUSE, Tsutomu Narita, PinocchioP, and Sachiko Miyano. I don't know most of those names.

Bucky O'Hare both of these tracks are really catchy but don't go quite as far as I'd like. If either had a little closing line after repeating once I think I'd vote there always. Heat Man is obviously more familiar, but I think as 30 second loops go Red Planet feels a little less repetitive if sit through a full 3 minutes of each.

The CD soundtrack of the Genocide 2 DOS port was arranged by soundTeMP, a Korean sound team. I uploaded Astrocounter of Crescents (
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqC9xyeBWPo) on Youtube a couple of years ago which is another soundTemp score with a lot of similar tracks. Funnily, the only comment under the video is from the composer himself.
But that style of synth rock was also pretty common in Japanese CD soundtracks from the early 90s. If you pick a random shmup or action game released on PC Engine CD or FM Towns then there is a pretty good chance that it will sound like that.

Kind of torn on this one, but the Contra song is so damn burned into my brain that it works both in a literal and figurative 'fire' song.

Curse of monkey island had a good few tracks but klonoa was way more consistent for me.
I just wanted to add the fire level was a tough choice to me, i really appreciate both of them.

Interstate '76 ~~not really impressed with either of these, but Interstate '76 is more of a style clash for me where Monster Rancher just feels really generic at what it's trying to achieve.
