When did your tastes mature and you finally realized SoR 3 had the best soundtrack in the series?

>technical mastery of the OPN2 FM chip - one of the least accurate soundtracks on an emulator

A nice OST recording off the original hardware:

I agree with all your points but still think SoR2 has the best OST in the series. I enjoy them all though.

I actually think that the tracks done by Motohiro Kawashima are excellent. They're really good and way ahead of its time. Yuzo Koshiro's compositions however are just nails on the chalkboard-tier, ear grating, awful mess.

You know that most of that is because the melodies were randomly generated, right?

Go away. SOR2 is slightly better in music.

OP completely and unequivocally blown the fuck out.

Pretentious musicfags will actually listen to garbled crap generated by an algorithm and try to argue around its merits rather than just admit it sounds like fuckin bullshit.

It also has the best gameplay and mechanics of the series.

>> No.3672682

1 and 2 are markedly more interesting because they don't sound like a soundtrack, they just sound like actual music. 3 was a hot mess that might have been impressive on a technical level but threw out most of what made the first two games sound so good in favor of "how far can we push the 2612 before the game crashes?"
