7/10. That was... interesting. I think I liked it. Suspenseful, sort of sinister. Sounds like something you'd hear in a cyberpunk chase scene.

Spoiler: Flight of the Bumblebee- Schnellster Geigenspieler

Now for something... fast.

 

[Barbas]

7/10. I enjoyed it. Continuing on with this theme...

Spoiler: Super Mario World Athletic Theme (Euro-Tech Remix) - Gokian.

 

[TheRiddler]

7.5/10. The Mario soundtrack is lots of fun on its own, but the dance beat still helps.

Spoiler: Green Hornet Theme- Al Hirt

 

[The Squid King]

9/10 - Always nice to hear something virtuosic that has musical substance beyond technical brilliance, pretty cool even if it does sound a bit too Flight of the Bumblebee-esque at times.

Time for something a bit more horrifying, feel free not to listen to the whole thing as I imagine this will not be everyone's cup of tea.

Spoiler: Penderecki - Threnody to the Victims of Hiroshima

 

[Doc Gnosis]

1.8/ 10 Ye Gods, this sounded tense! It manages to convey exactly what the namesake must've experienced at this time. Jarring, chaotic, and completely alien from our perspectives of music; the composer knows what he was doing. However I don't like or enjoy this as much as I respect it.

Spoiler: Let's chill out for a bit.

 

[Barbas]

Soothing and pleasant. I give it an 8/10.

Spoiler: You...

 

[Doc Gnosis]

7.8/10 Grandiose, carries a sense of urgency, a bit simplistic but not bad.

Spoiler: You might fall asleep to this...

 

[Barbas]

Hmmmmm.....I liked it. 7.8/10. It reminded me of the bar music from Freelancer. Speaking of which:

Spoiler: Edison? What an unusual name.

 

[Chromatic Aberration]

This thread shall not die!

6/10

An atmospheric electronic piece that sadly never manages to captivate. But I'll be damned if it wasn't relaxing.

Spoiler: How about a song that lies somewhere between post-rock, classical and chamber music? (Balmorhea - Fake Fealty)

 

[Barbas]

7.9/10. Impressive strings. Lively, I liked it. It wasn't too wild, jolty or erratic; it was more like a brisk train journey.

Spoiler: Wum wum wum wum wum wum wum wum, woom woom woom woom woom woom woom woom-

 

[Chromatic Aberration]

7/10 Wum wum wum wum wum wum wum wum, woom woom woom woom woom woom woom woom!

Not really a Half-Life fan but that has a nice beat to it!

Spoiler: Well, how about more VG music? This time from an underappreciated MMO (which I may be absorbed in, right now) with a rather good soundtrack? (The Old Republic Soundtrack: Balmorra, The Forge)

 

[Barbas]

7.8/10. That's a good quality brass section section and choir.

Spoiler: Window - The Album Leaf.
