I was a bit flippant in that last post – we got the Super Star remake, after all! – but I try not to get too optimistic about Nintendo soundtrack releases. I'm satisfied by rips and sound tests, since 99% of the time I'm not listening to a CD in a player anyway, but I like being able to throw money at things I love.

As much as I love 'em, I don't really feel qualified to differentiate between Ishikawa and Ando. But based on what I think I know, I don't disagree with your picks. Ishikawa for the map theme (has that wistfulness of KDL3) and Ando for the castle theme (pure KA) and boss theme (Smash) I'm preeeeeeetty sure about, and the other two are toss-ups for me. Whoever arranged Grape Gardens for sure also arranged Butter Building for Epic Yarn, and both of those originals are from Adventure so Ando's attractive.

And another benefit of soundtrack releases: canonical track titles!
