I don't think U.N. Owen is a particularly good song, it's just quirky.

>I don't think U.N. Owen is a particularly good song, it's just quirky.

Remi's theme is awesome.

is wily's castle on the list? or anything from guilty gear?

THE ONLY GOOD TOUHOE IS A DEAD TOUHOE.

No Touhou music is good. Some of it is somewhat catchy, and U.N. Owen is probably the best, but it's not real good music.

>>1301012
Not sure about wily's castle, but I'm certain there was at least 1 Guilty Gear theme in the top 300. Think it was in the 200s.

I never liked Remilia's theme too much. Sounds a lot like Beethoven. At least it fits the character.

>>1301030
>I never liked Remilia's theme
Look what you just did...

>>1301030 Sounds a lot like Beethoven
I thought I was the only one who noticed that! It cops a bar or two from Beethoven's Pathétique.

Holy shit, that’s long.

Someone list the top 10 for me.

Too long tracks here, makes it a bit boring. Though a bit old, I loved the 2ch top 300 anime op/ed compilation, the 20-30 second long clips made it fun to watch.

No, only The Gensokyo the Gods Loved, Border of Life and Sepette.

Thanks much!

>4 Chrono Cross - Time's Scar
FUCK
YES
MOTHERFUCKERS

>>1301191
>6 Ace Combat Zero - ZERO

That's a little surprising. I always liked Megalith's theme better.

>>1301205
I also remember seeing two Chrono Trigger BGMs between 20 and 11.

>>1301211

That's great too, but I consider Scars Left By Time to be one of the greatest songs in all of video game history.
So I'm glad that the lunatics at 2ch agree.

>>1301208
ZERO was a lot more energetic and catchy than what I remember of the Megalith battle theme, which was not much at all. Gotta love that spanish tinge to the Rasgriz theme.

>>1301225
ZERO was plain epic.

At this rate I'm gonna have to do that mission again just for the music.

Since I'm a SaGa Fan I will translate Number 7:

Romancing SaGa 3: 4 Noble Devils

>>1301027
Describe "good" music.

>>1301126

border of life? what the shit? gensokyo the gods loved?

fuck the elevens

where is my lunar dial, u.n owen, necrofantasia and suwa foughten field.

>time's scar

FUCK NO

Someone upload this to youtube.

>>1301219
Yeah, Chrono Cross has some amazing music. I'll never be able to forget "People seized with life", it made me baaaw when I first heard it. The opening theme remains one of my all-time favorites too.

>>1301242
Everything by Beethoven is better than anything by ZUN.

>>1301251
>The opening theme remains one of my all-time favorites too.

Well guess what Time's Scar/Scars Left By Time is?

>>1301255
You didn't describe it...

>>1301262
You can't describe good music, you can only recognize it after you have listened to enough music.

>>1301255
I disagree.

Good music is anything that qualifies as art.

To qualify as art, something only needs to convey an emotion to the person on the receiving end.

The Rite of Spring by Stravinsky, one of the greatest pieces of music ever, is certainly not enjoyable. Guernica, Picasso's most famous and important painting, is not an enjoyable piece of work to look at. I


You do not need to enjoy something for it to be good.

>>1301277

*I would say that the purpose of music is not to make the listener feel good, but to feel.

>>1301255
Didn't you mix "anything" and "everything" up?

>>1301277
If you don't think Rite of Spring is enjoyable then you clearly don't smoke enough weed.

>>1301285
Yes

>>1301287

Keep telling yourself that.

Dragon God is now playing in your head. Manually.

While we're at it, are there any good remixes/orchestrations of Chrono Cross?

I'm honestly surprised myself. UN Owen seems like a song that had more reach outside of the Touhou fanbase out of any song, and then Doll Judgement after that (thanks to Marisa Stole The Precious Thing).

And the top 10 is interesting in and of itself. Is that Stickerbrush Symphony at number 2?

Karma better be fucking on there

The Doll Maker of Bucuresti is the best Touhou song.

>>1301310

It is.

>>1301307

Neither of them are particularly good compared to ZUN's best stuff, like Suwa Foughten Field (no idea why that's not on there). They're just catchy.

>>1300977
I like it how this thread is the first Google result for "Sepette of the Dead Princess."

Google is fast.

>>1301368

Definitely, I'd say that songs are remixed most often because they're catchy and have an easy-to-isolate melody, not because they're necessarily one of the best Touhou songs. Of course, there's ones which are both extremely good and catchy, like Native Faith.

My top list is something like the following (no order):

The Doll Maker of Bucuresti
Native Faith
Reach for the Moon, Immortal Smoke
Heartfelt Fancy
Suwa Foughten Field
Hartmann's Youkai Girl

>>1301371

Yes, because Sepette is mispelled.

Fuck me.

>>1301509

And her? She was a true Touhou.

Is Karma rank anywhere near the top100?
I am too lazy to go through all through 13part.

Those who survive a long time on the battlefield begin to think they're invincible. I bet you do too, buddy.

>>1301567

That's because she is. Reimu is the strongest Youkai in Gensokyo.

You and I are opposite sides of the same coin. There may be a resemblance, but we can never face in the same direction.

Oh hi there, Ultros.

Did anything from Xenogears make it? I thought it was Mitsuda's superior work.

>>1301617
Yea, I know I saw at least one song from Xenogears. Probably around 2-3 songs in the top 300.

Speaking of Xenogears... Xenosaga, especially Xenosaga 3 had some pretty ossum stuff too.

>>1301651
Only saw one theme and that was from Xenosaga II. Kind of disappointing since I really loved the themes in Xenosaga I.
Damn I wish there was just a list to pull up that shows all the songs in the rankings.

Fuck, I'm getting Ace Combat just for that song, it's fucking awesome.

>>1301661
XS3 end boss theme: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaznLj6pN-Y
It's made of much win.

>>1301681

Zero is a damn good game on its own, anyway.

Legend of heroes look good.

I wonder if there is anyone translating it to english.

>>1301283
>*I would say that the purpose of music is not to make the listener feel good, but to feel.

Postmodernist claptrap and what was responsible for the destruction of fine art and the promotion of shitty conceptual art.

Oh, and Stravinsky and Picasso were both hacks.

Wow, #1 sucked badly compared to the rest.
What the fuck happened there?

>>1301696

the one word I have for you is ELITIST.

>>1301699

Every japanese ever has a raging erection for Dragon Quest III so it obviously wins first place in any contest ever.

Seems that Stickerbrush Symphony is the only song out of the top 20 by a non-Japanese composer. Are there any other songs among the 200 that were made in the west?

>>1301703
>the one word I have for you is ELITIST.

Really? and I thought the morons who pontificate about fucking cinder blocks represented as 'art' were a little pretentious.... guess i was wrong.

I guess this is where we differ, peasant.

awful choices

septette is terrible, fall of fall is far superior to gensokyo the gods loved.

border of life is decent, but in a series with so much other good shit, it's sad to see it rank at all

i wouldn't really expect any of my favorites to rank(bad apple, capricco, fall of fall, deep mountain), but septette? christ

>>1301726

Well I'm glad you agree modern art is for pontificating, pretentious idiots who don't really know anything about how technically good an artist is.

>>1301727
the IaMP version of the song is badass

>>1301703
Remi's theme is awesome, fuck you.

>>1301727

What the hell's wrong with Septette? I thought it was a great final boss theme, mostly because it was well composed without being overwrought with percussion like later songs in the series got.

>>1301704
I see Civilization IV in the thumbnail of one of the other videos.

Artfags gb2/ic/

The list in general is just bad. No Xenogears, FF7, decent FF6 in the top 20.

can someone rapidshit scars left by time for me? ive been wanting it for a while but i cant torrent worth a fuck.

>>1301756
FF7 sucks.

>>1301739

it's certainly an improvement, but it doesn't really count

>>1301749

it's really underwhelming for a final boss track, and the melody is just fucked up. i mean, eosd's definitely his worst game musicially, but septette's one of the worst tracks in the game.

you do have a point about the percussion, though.

>>1301765
There's no use debating this kind of shit with a /v/irgin, it had one of the most consistently brilliant soundtracks in any video game. Disagree all you want, but you don't disagree as a result of objective standards.

>>1301774

Ehh....I really wasn't fond of the total FF7 soundtrack, to be honest. And One-Winged Angel, while a good song, is overrated and overpriased much the same way the game was, IMO.

>>1301774
No, it didn't. Shit sucks.
The music isn't enough to make up for how bad of a game it was, and most of the music was horrible.
Some decent tracks here and there, but it was shit overall.

>>1301756

I think there is a ff6 song in the top40.
It should be the on the part12. Even melodies of life was there.

>>1301785

I disagree, it had so many tracks that fit the mood perfectly. I'd say certain tracks out of FF9 and FF6 are definately as good if not better than the best of FF7's, but there are far more shitty tracks in FF6 and 9's respective OSTs. Especially 6, those days production values weren't as high and as a result a lot of it really was just poor filler.

Why is Touhou music just not as good as folk music? It's just not traditional and awesome at all...

>>1301795

Production Values aside (after all, the SNES era games could hardly stand up in that aspect to the PSX era games), I still think FF4 and FF6 had a better overall soundtrack, and outside of One-Winged Angel, they both had much more memorable tracks as well.

>>1301790

Let's be honest here, a lot of people hate FF7 for it's fanbase, which is asinine, a lot of people hate it because Square moved to Sony when they were (and perhaps still are) hardcore nintendo fanboys.

I liked it. It was good, great in fact. Not the best game ever but certainly not deserving of this fucking stupid 'lets hate ff7 to be cool and edgy' attitude.

>>1301801

Give me a few examples apart from Terra and Kefka's theme.

>>1301804
Fanbase? The main reason I hate FF7 is because of the storyline, the execution was horrible.

It's one of the few Final Fantasys that doesn't pull the whole random final boss out of fucking nowhere trick.

>>1301836
Give me some examples that aren't exclusive to the series.

Final Fantasy 7 is awesome I had dreams about Zack so go AWAY stop hurting my feelings

>>1301859

LIEK KEFKA'S SO BADASS MAN HE'S REALLY EVIL AND FUKS PEOEPLE UP AND HE IS ALONE AND DARK LIEK ME SO I CAN RELATE!

Naturally, I knows that I told you guys about this 300 ranking before.

I really don't think any piece of Touhou music deserves a place alongside Falcom music, Mega Man 2 music, and FF6 music, but hey, internet hype is too powerful.

>>1301849
Yeah, because everyone expected JENOVA to be the final boss instead of Sephiroth.

>>1301866
what's kefka i never heard of that and leave me alone and go back to playing your non-pretty fanboy games you meanie

>>1301875

No they didn't, if you thought that you were obviously a fucking retard to begin with.

>>1301871
MOTHERFUCKER

>>1301871
did Drittes Auge Nehmen make the list? that's the best song in that game

>>1301810

For FF6 - The whole Opera sequence (not just Celes' piece), all the battle themes really, the Floating Continent, Kefka's Tower, Ghestal's Theme (not something I'd put on my iPod, but simply a foreboding, menacing theme), and that's off the top of my head.

FF4 - Red Wings, Theme of Love, the Prologue Theme (especially from the DS version's intro...not sure if it was in the PSX version as well), the battle themes (again), especially Dreadful Fight and the Zeromus battle, etc.

>>1301871
>I really don't think any piece of Touhou music deserves a place alongside Falcom music, Mega Man 2 music, and FF6 music, but hey, internet hype is too powerful.

I agree. Even comparing Touhou music with such things is an insult to ZUN and the awesome soundtracks he creates.

>>1301952
>all the battle themes really

I preferred FF7's battle themes to be honest. Ahead on Our Way, Shinra Corporation, The Nightmare's Beginning, Sending a Dream into the Universe, Cid's Theme, Great Warrior, Cosmo Canyon, Highwind Theme, Anxious Heart... And that's without mentioning any of the more well known tracks.

>>1301871
>Karma #291

FFFFFFFFFFF

>>1301987

Oh yeh, and I really liked the whole Opera sequence too in FF6. My favourite track is actually 'Awakening' though.

was the Wild Arms theme in the list?

>>1302531

Yeah. The Japs love Wild Arms.

Check parts 12 and 13.

bump

I actually like this list a lot. Most people's love from game music comes from Final Fantasy from what I've seen, but it was good that Final Fantasy tunes didn't dominate the list.

Anyone find a list of all the songs yet?
