Seems like you guys share my opinion about boss themes. It’s certainly something we can do in the future, but a little too similar what we just did for now.

As far as a remixes theme, I think it would be fun to open things up to fan made stuff since we usually stick to official tracks. It’s neat hearing your favorites in a different style, anything from 8-bit to full blown orchestral arrangements. Obviously it’s a very broad category and there countless options to choose from so I get if people are more hesitant about it. @Bankaj here are a few remixes that came to mind as an example:
Puzzle Plank Galaxy 8-bit
The First Campaign Super Arranged
Aquatic Ambiance Lofi Remix

If everyone is onboard with lava/fire themes for the next tournament then we can go ahead and start nominations.

@Captain_Toad Was Conception II your nomination? That was by far my favourite track in the contest.

Pleased for Etrian Odyssey, though. Yuzo Kushiro had to win at least one of these!

If we’re doing fire/lava themes, then I’ll kick things off with A Searing Struggle, from the lava zone in Ys: The Oath in Felghana. Played it just last week, so it’s fresh in the memory. And all Ys soundtracks rock!

I can't really think of any lava themes that aren't from Mario games at the moment. For now I'll just nominate the Castle theme from New Super Mario Bros, which I think is one of the most underrated Mario tunes.

"Remember, Funky's the Monkey!"

Trying to go for the less obvious examples. There's a lot less catchy Fire/Lava themed songs than I realised.

Earth Temple - Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword

Scorch 'n' Torch - Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze

Red Heat Coronia - Klonoa: Door to Phantomile

I chose the above 3 for embodying a distinct atmosphere and mood in each of their melodies.

Mt. LavaLava - Wario Land: The Shake Dimension

An Underlying Problem (The Lost City) - Shovel Knight

Magma Man's Stage - Mega Man 9

The other 3 are just too damn good.

@kkslider5552000 I've been re-listening to the OST. It's so underrated. >_< I would've forgot about it otherwise.

Fall semester just started this week so I’ve been a little busy. Tomorrow I’ll post a couple songs and add up what we have so far.

Glad I'm still in time. Great opportunity for Fzero's musical library to represent itself!

No, I feel so bad. I follow this thread, but it stopped working so I didn’t realize nominations were open. Please tell me if there’s still room?

Edit: Dang it, just counted. Gah, I had a good idea for Lava.

Heigh Ho Heigh Ho. It’s off to work (from home) I go.
