2. Casiopea - Eccentric Games (this one was surprisingly harder to choose than I was expecting, because there was a ton of solid songs here that could've totally gotten chosen, but I ultimately went with this one because this gave me one hell of a stank face, like damn, the bass goes nuts here lmao; plus I'm eternally biased in favor of jazz fusion like this, so yeah. hate me all you want, idrc

3. Lars Danielsson - Passacaglia (this was another one I was willing to choose here, but as I said, the Casiopea one wins out by a slight margin for me; still tho, this is pretty solid stuff, and has a similar jazzy sound that I also dig obviously)
4. The Animalhouse - Small (very cool as well, loved some of the drum work here especially, nice and driving beat with tons of syncopation, just the way I like it; love the chaotic vibe of this one in general as well, dig this sound a lot haha)
5. Le peuple de l'herbe - Yini Bo (this one was also much cooler than I was expecting, and the music video was also cool, reminded a little bit of the style TAWOG goes with it's animation, what with it also having cartoony looking characters that are put in realistic looking backgrounds and all that; would be nice to understand what's being said here tho :V)
6. Rymdlego - Yuki Satellite (I normally tend to like this sort of music, but compared to some of the others, it didn't impress me as much sadly; plus I feel like it's a bit too repetitive for it's own good, which seeing how the music sounds I guess it's supposed to be the point, but still)
7. Son Lux — Easy (pretty cool. not much to say about it tho)
8. Sophie - Faceshopping (...nope, still don't know how to process wtf did I even listen to LMAO)
