OSC13 - Synth1 - Totolitoto Wins!

[slugfest99]

Nice patch Shame About The Song - Mouxbar (1)
Some nice sound design with intriguing timbres. Compositionally it doesn't really develop much, and is more like just a showcase for the patches. The arrangement and the mix is average.

Yup, the title says it all.

My votes shortly I hope.

Exciting stuff then ... 'Green Ginger' drops to 4th, 'Last Synth' moving up top, followed closely by 'RL24' and 'Wide Open' ... the highest climber with a 7 place leap.
Not far behind is 'Thingamabob' making a healthy 3 place leap.
Still a long way to go though ... keep those votes coming

[Mac of BIOnighT]

LIGHTHOUSE_ISLAND--Mac_of_BIOnighT 2

Wow, I've got my first (and only? ) votes, thanks!!

[glokraw]

My criteria for first place is simple, who of the entrants would I call if I needed
help on a project in an 'emergency'.?

For the runners up, I chose based on combining a few things, the finished element, was it a complete song, the uniqueness and grouping of the sounds themselves, and their
success in fitting within the songs mood

my vote:

The Last Synth On Earth by Totolitoto 10

Thus Spoke Piazzola by Steplton 6

RL24 by Kaiyoti 5

Karma Sutra by V'ger 5

The other entries all have bright spots, lots of sonic interest, good themes, unique sounds, and they all deserve more work for future presentation. Well done, in the short order time frame!

[Totolitoto]

Hello there,

Thanks for the votes

My vote:

V'Ger : 10 pts
Very very cool cinematic track, à la Vangelis
Your music rocks, I really love it

Tattiemannie : 5 pts
Nice exotic (chinese) mood, I like it

Yeager : 4 pts
Nice melodic track, tells a story, that's the most important for me

Mac of Bionight : 3 pts
Long but cool. I like ambient music, I will listen to it while working

Xenobioz : 2 pts
This arabic flute in the end is excellent, overall production is goog

Orbik : 1 pt
This is not the music I would listen to, but the WhaWha sound is too good to stay unrewarded, as is the global production

Cheers

[V'ger]

Cheers for the votes and nice comments about my track guys. Still need more time to decide how to distribute the votes, should be up this weekend though.

[slugfest99]

The votes from Norfolk are in

Even with the new voting system, a shame to only mention my top 10 tracks here. The weeding out was brutal so, if you're not on the list, don't think that you weren't appreciated

Beacause of the number of entries and very high standard, my top guys get top points because I just digged the music the most

5 Points - Feeling of Weirdness - Shroom Feverish
5 points - Synth One Thingamabob - Ah Dziz

Followed by a slew of you on two points each - all brilliant in their own ways:

Another Soundtrack - Yeager
Final Frontier - Major Bloodknok
Karma Sutra - V'ger
Land of Green Ginger - Mr Wobble
Lighthouse Island - Mac of Bionight (and day, week and month )
Many as One - Xenobioz
Last Synth on Earth - Totolitoto
Visions of a Seagull - Nahkranoth

And that's all 26 points dished out

I'd love to see an entry like this on Anubis which, from first impressions, is a very capable low CPU VST.

Best of luck,
Mouxbar

Cheers for the votes guys, great stuff! I'll do a count up soon

Also hope to launch OSC14 by tonight

'Last synth', with a haul of 22 points, is now screaming ahead with a 20 point lead. and looks unstoppable! 'RL24' hangs on tentatively to 2nd place with 'Thingamabob' and 'Green ginger now so close, they are virtually reading each other newspapers!
Not far behind, equal 5th, level on 25 points, we have mixed forunes ... 'Wide Open' taking a tumble from 2nd place, joined by highest climber 'Karma Sutra', up from =10th, who gained an impressive 20 points!
..... which demonstrates beautifully that no-one is out of this comp yet! still plenty to play for

So get those votes in folks!

[K-Bee]

OK then, let's get down to it. Here are the votes of the danish jury

Another Soundtrack - OSCXIII - Yeager 1 point
Is it trance? Is it Dance? is it....what is it? Well it doesn't matter really as long as it's well constructed and evolving into a huge electronic crescendo but with a tone of melancholy lying underneath. This one is!

Land of Green Ginger - Mr Wobble 2 points
Laid back, jazzy and with tons of atmosphere. I'd love to hear this with in a real musicians setting. Like a jazz quartet.

Many as One - Xenobioz 3 points
This dares to be different! Great middle-eastern flavor to this track and simply stunning percussion and harmonica sounds. This would fit the Prince Of Persia games.

Nice Patch Shame About The Song - Mouxbar 3 points
This may not be the best track in either the composition or sound design departments....but that bassline brought back some memories of the mid 80s Chicago House sound to me. And when I hear that, I'm basically sold!

Thus Spoke Piazzolla - Steplton 6 points
The great Astor Piazzola's "Libertango" is covered here in this outstanding version almost rivaling the version Grace Jones did way back in 1981 (entitled "I've Seen That Face Before").
Brilliant

Wide Open - orbik 10 points
The single best piece of music ever to be featured in any osc! EVER!!
Yeah it's short I know, but from beginning to end this is complete and shouldn't be changed one bit. It's a winner in my book and I hope orbik goes all the way to the top with this.

[tattiemannie]

Good stuff K-Bee ... cheers for the votes!!

[MajorBloodnok]

Thanks for the vote Mouxbar. No, wait, two votes?!!! OMG!!

Thanks!

MajorBloodnok

[hakey]

Wide Open - orbik 10 points
The single best piece of music ever to be featured in any osc! EVER!!

Yes!! Couldn't agree more!
