Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade - The Runaround Pt. I - V[^]
Another FFVII Remake track this week, five parts no less, and from the DLC!
Parts I, II, III and IV were written by Tsuyoshi Sekito and Mitsuto Suzuki, the drum solo is by George Kano and Mitsuto Suzuki and the fifth part is by A5SEMBLER.
This piece is actually very un-FF like and is just pure jazz.
The part between the first and second part is actually a drum solo, a jazz drum solo in a FF soundtrack!
I remember running around and hearing this track and thinking to myself I have to buy this soundtrack!
I even ran a few additional rounds just so I could listen to the soundtrack a bit longer.
It's just that good

Thanks for the post, I look forward to them every week.
I hate jazz with a great passion. It's in the same bucket as gangster rap, for me. In my f'd up brain, it is just not music to me, just awful noise.
Unfortunately, I was not able to find salvation with this musical selection.

Good to hear!

Lucky for you, they're not my favorite genres either, although I've posted both in the past and probably will post again sometime in the future.
I think one of the strengths of the SOTW is that it features lots of genres, making people give it a try and sometimes finding new stuff they like and sometimes they don't.
Who knows, another fifty years of the SOTW might make you a jazz fan yet

Better luck next week (which is very unlikely to feature either jazz or rap)!

Sorry mate, not a Jazz fan either. If I was to listen to Jazz, I think it should be listened to it live in a poorly lit cellar while sipping a glass of something. 
Although I can always find an exception to rule. I've always loved Looney Tunes The Three Little Bops[^]

Yes, they were very extraordinary clever at using cartoons to introduce you to music.

Thank you. The synthesized sounds at the beginning are hard to take, but about 5 minutes in the horns are great. Bit heavy on the drumming (for me) but I love hearing a great trumpeter or Sax player.
Best wishes!

I actually love those first few minutes, especially because of the drums!
The whole thing is great though

My younger son was a snare drummer (U of Minnesota Marching Band, Hockey Pep Band...). He would probably agree with you! I do enjoy seeing a good Drum and Bugle Corp

After a bit, beating on the drums just becomes beating on the drums, and that first drum solo definitely passed that point!

I know Allegaeon, in fact that album is still in my favorites (although somewhere far in the back and I never listen to it anymore), just put it on again
I even think Allegaeon made it to SOTW back when that album was released, although I can't find it now so maybe I opted for another band that week.

Yes, and had you waited that hour ...
... I still wouldn't have beaten you to the answer (because I didn't look at it until 3:30 London time). But! I did solve it!  In the last 2 or 3 weeks I have solved 2 and been very close on 2 others. As my Aussie friends would say I'm feeling a bit chuffed with myself right about now.

How many of you (that program in JavaScript or similar) know what this line is:
const {Pass, Fail, NA, NO} = changes;
and could be used like this:
if (Pass || Fail || NA || NO) {...do something...}
If not, can you guess, knowing that changes is an object:
const changes = { Pass: 1, Fail: 0, NA: 0, NO:0 };
?
If you're still clueless, like I was, it's called "destructuring[^]".
So I'm just curious, because like I said, I knew about this, forget about it because it's rather arcane IMO, and just got reminded about it again.

I use it every day. I don’t know what would be of my life without it.
Also, we already know part of changes.
const { Pass, Fail, NA, NO } = changes;
the above hint us that changes may have the following fields Pass, Fail, NA, NO

Looks a bit like they got the idea from Python.
