!!!DaN!!!, just FYI, you only voted for 9 songs. I think you skipped #6...
I need to find time for a final listening session and I'll put my votes in soon. In any case, great job to EVERYone. I really enjoyed all the entries.
D.H. Miltz, thanks for the mini-review.

why didn't you just insert it in your original vote by clicking 'edit' on the top right of the post?iiiDaNiii wrote:Balls! thanks for the tip, guy. I posted #6 in a reply.....

Some comments...
1105-Farlukar_-_Vabidate.mp3 -> Some nifty sounds in here. Liking the beat. Nice piece, enjoyed.
1105_offthewall_TheStartOfTheEnd.mp3 -> Very nice guitar work, and I always enjoy the sound of the pennywhistle. The rhythm and phrasing of the vocals is a little loose for my tastes. Nice song.
1105_beanpole_Fashionista.mp3 -> Ha! I was expecting vocals to break in, so the instrumental leads caught me by surprise. Nice build, enjoyable and satisfying piece. Great work.
hivkorn -> No direct download link?
1105-oddbod-whosaidimdead.mp3 -> Lovely production, nice vocals. The melody leaves me a little flat, to be honest. Solid package, nonetheless.
1105_mvrasseli_im_so_tired_today.mp3 -> Seemed to stop before it really got going; feels much like it was started and then abandoned.
11_05_Liqih_Dawning.mp3 -> Some nice sounds. Enjoying the groove. I like the way this flows. Nicely done.
1105_LagunaRising_Meta-Muzak.mp3 -> As usual, plenty of surprises. I think I'm finally starting to catch some of the flow of it. Another couple of years, and I may start to get it.
1105_Patrick9_Moonshine.mp3 -> Liking the rhythm. Nice playing. An enjoyable meandering piece.
1105_marymary_long_summer_shadows.mp3 -> Oooh, that's nice. Digging the groove, loving the sounds. Excellent work.
11-05-sepheritoh_those_taken_by_the_moon.mp3 -> Very lullaby-ish (until the 2-minute mark, anyway). Some nice sounds, flows well, I like the sense of space.
1105_Timothee_Mayflowers.mp3 -> Some nice sounds in here. Straight-forward, simple electronic piece, definitely a pleasant listen.
1105_DHMiltz_TarPitsoftheMoon.mp3 -> I think it's your irrepressible upbeat tones and optimistic lyrics that I love most. This is the kind of song I could imagine coming from a Vonnegut novel. Nice work.
1105_Jerru_Call_To_Glory.mp3 -> Nice sounds, has a big, sweeping feel to it. As always, lovely guitar work, like that Spanish feel. I don't remember you using synths this much before; even more weapons in your arsenal. Solid stuff.
1122_iiiDaNiii_InThisWay.mp3 -> Dynamic, energetic, lots of change and movement. Took me a bit to catch on to the time sig changes. Parts of it remind me a bit of YMO. Cool stuff.
1105_ohmdsp_Turn_It_Up.mp3 -> Heavy, almost foreboding beat. I like the sounds in general, though I'm missing something in the higher frequency range for a bit of contrast. Nice.
201105_GMoneh_WaitingForSpring.mp3 -> Very soundtrack-y. Nicely paced, I like the way this developes and flows. Good work.
1105_peppy197_Eberswalde.mp3 -> Not sure how I feel about this one. There are elements to the composition that appeal to me, but the mix feels rough and out of balance to my ears, making it hard to appreciate everything the way I think I'd like to. Has potential.
1105_SLDMusic_Hijacked.mp3 -> Nice groove, digging the sounds. I like the energy of the music, especially as it builds up at the end. Nice choice of subject matter, too.
1105_thomasliebe_kaenguruqualm.mp3 -> Enjoyed your vocal delivery. This is one of those songs that takes a bunch of sounds I don't particularly like individually and uses them in a way that works for me as a whole - nicely done. As the song continues, I like it more and more.
1105-MaxelB-Blabla.mp3 -> Magical musical collage, very disparate and diverse, with a funky barely-connecting multi-coloured thread.
1105_bluedad_Sun_Salutations.mp3 -> I like the drone-ish feel to this, the mellow layers and sounds. Nice work.
1105-nikp2000-may_song.mp3 -> Too short - I was enjoying the sound and feel of this, and wanted it to continue.
adj_0511_Days_Gone_By.mp3 -> Lovely song, feels complete and perfect (aside from the slight cut-off at the end for time) - enjoying every part of this.
MetroidRevisited.mp3 -> Never played the game, not sure if that would impact the experience of listening. As it is, not connecting with me, not sure exactly why. Plus, the end seems abruptly cut off? I tried downloading a second time, but had the same experience.
Now to put everything into the old mp3 player and put all of the tracks through some elimination rounds...

That statement surprised me, so I decided to see if I could still edit this post from May 6th. It seems to have worked.iiiDaNiii wrote:After a certain amount of time passes, it no longer lets you editbluedad wrote:why didn't you just insert it in your original vote by clicking 'edit' on the top right of the post?

Much Thanks EV

No worries, sometimes forum software does weird things. It struck me as an odd glitch, but these things happen.iiiDaNiii wrote:I dunno dude... I've edited posts before... I know where the button is... but it's not there now

When I mixed Deaf Steever's track the first time, I thought I'd cut it just after the tail - it took until the next day for me to realize that it was just a tiny bit cut-off. So, it was still fresh in my mind! Otherwise, I probably wouldn't have noticed (and then I wouldn't be able to complain about anything at all).adj wrote:
