"Chrono Town"* from Chōsōjū Mecha MG on the Nintendo DS (2006)
Composer(s): Masafumi Takada & Jun Fukuda
Album: No Official Release
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Sandlot
There're going to be a lot of asterixes in this article so rather than clutter everything up, let's just get it all out of the way here at the beginning.
First, there was no soundtrack to this game, which means all audio found online, including our video, was ripped from the game. The file name for this particular song is "08 BGM #08 [BGM_IGM_0]". The title "Chrono Town" originated from a YouTube video by levi mcpolytank San. Since I prefer "Chrono Town" over "BGM #08," we'll use "Chrono Town" instead. Lastly, I could only find two instances of the credits from Chōsōjū Mecha MG, and none of those were from in-game video or screenshots, but both Masafumi Takada and Jun Fukuda have composed video game music prior to and after 2006. I am going to assume that either one or both of these people wrote this particular song.
Now that that's out of the way, the only context I have for this song is a couple of YouTube videos where it is used during the opening mission. Piloting a mech to gather what looks to be either a giant block of garbage or possibly the remnants of a former mech, I can't quite tell. But this has got to be one of the most heroic-sounding opening songs to a mission that lasts only 30 seconds that I've ever heard.
And sometimes we just need some gallant music first thing in the morning while we take out the literal trash.
