How bout a ranking topic, guys? But instead of one guy ranking different things, how bout everyone ranks what everyone has. And then, I'll compile the data and display everything in one single post. Statistics and all.

The goal of this thread is two-fold:
1) To discover new and interesting music from each other.
2) To discover what this site enjoys in general.


To join, simply nominate five (subject to change depending on participants) of your favorite tracks from anywhere: an OST, a chiptune, a remix, a song.

Format:
Title by Artist



Guidelines:
- Nominate a song you like. Don't just nominate a song that impresses people.
- When posting entries, be sure to check if someone has already nominated the same song.
- Goes without saying, but no troll-y shit. This is a music appreciation thread.
- You don't have to nominate all at once; feel free to post 2 songs for the moment, then do the rest later!


Alright! Let's do this.

I'll start with 1 for the moment I guess:

1) Sayuri's Reel by DDRKirby(ISQ)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBkqyfJybAU

So how do we go about ranking? Scale of 1 to 10? Do we also comment on it?

Anyway, here are some of my choice tunes:

1) Twenty One Pilots vs. Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood's Heathens (Mashup By Mix & Brew)
2) Youjo Senki Opening JINGO JUNGLE - MYTH & ROID

I've been listening to these non-stop for the last two weeks.

1)Snake 88 by Taitoki:

2)Exploding Hearts by Widdly 2 Diddly:

Any maximum length for the music nominations? I was going to put the other two but they're like... 10 minutes in length.

EDIT: Decided to edit the post instead of making a new post ayy. I don't think to add the 10 mins one eventually cause yea it's probably too extensive. But if we got into 10 nominations per user, I'd consider adding it.

Drum & Drone by Justin Hurwitzz (Whiplash OST)

Commenting is optional. But when you nominate, you HAVE to rank. And yes, it is for every entry everyone has.


2 more for me, 2 more coming later:

2) Bobby Hebb - Sunny
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubvYQxTXO3U

3) The Sound of Arrows - M.A.G.I.C.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zE2hEaMpKQI


If this thread goes well, we might be open to new topics (like anime, games, or maybe even animators god forbid). But I chose music because it's a very relatable topic that anyone can jam to.

Also if we get fewer nominators as mentioned, I'm willing to crank the number of nominations to 10 or something, we'll get a nice 60+ ranking going.

As a courtesy, try to find a track that isn't extensive. But so far I'm allowing it.

We only rank other people's entries right? Or does the list doesn't have to include the stuff we nominated as well.

I changed the last song on my list.

Any deadlines for this? In the middle of finals, will be somewhat active starting next week.

five songs eh? very hard for me to narrow it down, so I'll pick some genre variety.

1) Refraction / by mmodule
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FFojyEVkFU
curiously, this is the guy who did the music for madness interactive. this has remained one of my favourite songs since i looked him up like, a decade ago.

2) Driftwood Palace / by Spoonbill
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0Jx21LVzus
this is an australian artist i really like. he's played at every rainbow serpent festival i've been to so far, good times.

3) A Venus In My Pyjamas / by Chris Joss
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yk9Qerjxdhg
from a recent chris joss some groovy, top tier head bobbing right here.

4) Silhouette / by Beats Antique
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=61-dD_Qvl4o
from a recent beats antique album. one of my favourite songs from them so far, and that is saying something.

5) Sidology ep. 2: Trinity / by Machinae Supremacy
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zreA7lYnXs4
an instrumental journey in ~~video games~~

No, your stuff will be in the ranking too. It is your personal ranking as well. Then I shall compile everything.

I'm keeping it up for as long as there are people who are interested. If you make it then good for you, if not then wait for the next one.

Oh don't worry. I'll be broadcasting everyone in the PMs when I'm sure the Ranking period can begin.

I plan to hold several Music Ranks for max diversity in the future. I mean, if this goes well.

I'll take note of it. Short films would be great!
I'll probably make a queue or soemthing later down the road if this topic picks up further steam.

Perfectly fine. All noms are not locked in until the period is closed.
