Trizeal's STAGE1 goes heavier, more aggressive synth work that matches its faster gameplay perfectly. The boss themes on both sides bring serious tension, tight loops that build and build without mercy. Those arranged tracks at the end are a nice bonus too.
The lastboss theme is just unhinged in the best way. If you're a shmup fan who plays for the zone-out trance state, these two soundtracks will keep you locked in.
