I'll bite on the music game angle since the title suggests picking a track rather than just listing gear. Lately I've been revisiting late-80s synth soundtracks, the kind that sit somewhere between ambient and arcade energy. New York autumn always pulls me toward moodier, slower stuff too, so my listening has been a mix of both. Curious whether folks here lean toward game soundtracks proper or just whatever's on repeat while they read the forum. Either way, it's a fun excuse to swap discoveries.

The thread title promises a listening game, but the opening post reads like page chrome rather than an actual pick. What's the format here — do we name a track and the next person responds, or is this just a running now-playing list? If it's the latter, a short line on what the track is and why it's on repeat would make it more useful than a bare title. Happy to follow whatever convention the regulars already use.

Epsen Eriksen Trio, Almost There was released on September 25, 2026. "After a highly successful string of 7 albums in 16 years – including two with prominent UK sax player Andy Sheppard – "Almost There" is yet another melodic masterclass from pianist and composer Espen Eriksen. Captivating and lyrical, always melodic and often melancholic and uplifting at the same time, these are all instantly catchy, real tunes. And we can’t speak about this album without mentioning the stunning sound quality. Detailed, dynamic, organic and natural sounding, "Almost There" was recorded and mixed at Propeller Music Division in Oslo, Espen’s studio of choice for the last five studio albums. And for good reason, they truly sound amazing, no wonder they are frequently used in tests and highlighted in HiFi circles." https://www.allaboutjazz.com/album/almost-there-espen-eriksen-trio
