Despite the 4th place of the Xak introdemo, I still think it should be the winner because of 1 reason. (all IMHO ofcourse):

It was the first game where I gasped in astonishment about the musical possibilities of the FM-PAC


Really I drooled and drooled and kept drooling all the way throughout the game .. Xak is a combination of excellent japanese synthpop style BGMs, a really inventive way to use PSG and FM combined AND possibly the best tweaked FM-Drums I've ever heard.

I also think the intro-demo off xak-1 should have won the contest. Maybe a next contest: the best demo-music on msx????

That's no contest at all... I think Impacts 'the Ant' will win that by a giant leap.

don't be so sure low....

but, indeed an 'amateur' music poll?? or sumpfn

btw. Ever noticed Konami music gurus often used odd-timing (aka 7/8 etc) in their music? I just re-checked MetalGear2 and noticed a lot of odd-timing in many songs! how about 13/8 for instance (8/8+5/8 combo) very nice !
