They are chill , perfect for an aperitif on the lake during the sunset.
EDIT: this is a common scene here where i live. There are some arcade cabinets in a tropical local on the lake shore.

OMG Thank you for that Detroit Techno playlist!!!BIL wrote:Namiki's Garegga's OST was heavily influenced (to put it charitably >_> ) by classic Detroit Techno, and is indeed overall very chill! "Fly To The Leaden Sky", "Underwater Rampart," "Degeneracy," "Tunnel Vision," "Subversive Awareness," "Bluescape" and "Blood Brothers In The Dawn" - all first rate breezy jams with a suave techno pulse. Not at all unlike Yuzo Koshiro's artfully poaching the late 80s/early 90s club and techno scenes for the Bare Knuckle games' now-iconic sound.
That is one gorgeous photo!
There exists a PC Engine version of Hellfire called Hellfire S, with an arranged soundtrack. It's got some hits and some misses. Luckily the hits are pretty damn cool. Here's the Stage 5 Theme - In Side Drive (uploaded by myself right now, why not? ). Great piece with striking and uncommon sounds.Lemnear wrote:Hellfire - Arcade music OST - Stage 1 Captain Lancer
Similar but not enough for call it plagiarism.BIL wrote:Anyone else hear a bit of Priest's "Hell Bent For Leather" in "Captain Lancer?" Specifically comparing the chorus riff to about 10 seconds in.

Garegga has possibly the most invigorating opening soundscape of any arcade title; at least I can't think of better than Rebellion, 0471AM, and Leaden Sky back-to-back, all punctuated by the inimitable Coin In SFX - like the most improbably sonorous gear clicking into place - an irresistibly chipper Start jingle, and the emblematic buzzbox fly-by.Lander wrote:Speaking of Garegga, Rebellion is just superb.
Short, to the point, incisive. And like the best tunes, carefully layered so its component parts reveal themselves iteratively over repeat listens instead of simply becoming repetitive.
Which is to say, shit gets you excited to put in a credit.

Certainly the most memorable I've encountered, and even the preceding RAIZING shout gets in on the tru canon playlist order.

Rousing stuff! I particularly like that the loadout screen folds the sparkly powerup jingle back into the music as a slightly more melodic arpeggio motif.BIL wrote:Very fond of Gradius III's sequencing too, similarly arresting mix, though nowhere as suavely easy-going.
Not STG related, but a certain Williams banger to this effect has been stand-and-delivering through my sound system lately.BIL wrote:Throw the ferryman a fuckin coin, pussy!
