Alvfaria - Little Red Devil
Fantastic drum patterns and sounds, and the thematic melodies are riveting. Great driving track, but the ending happens too soon and the fade out seems like a rushed way to finish.
I consider this review as a motivation to do a new improved version. :D










(Unfortunately, no votes yet ...) :cry:

This was a lot harder than last month for whatever reason; I think the consistently high quality of the tracks this month was impressive and there wasn't a single one I didn't like. I wish I had more points to give out, but alas I don't. Many of the tracks were sitting in my playlist for a while. Anyway, on to the votes:

5 points : Kalee - Bystander : After way too many repeated listens to a slew of tracks, this song made me the happiest when it came on (even though the panning headphones is a bit extreme ;))
4 points : Irion Da Ronin - Surrounded by Light : this track grew on me; in true Irionian style great pads and ambient space; Vangelis would turn over in his gra.. err... bed
3 points : Bjulin - Peace : I *really* liked the first half of this song
2 points : HalfNinja - 1Day1Synth : I can barely believe that all these sounds came from Charlatan, but assuming they did, this has one really good dubstep portion, and I've been on a small dubstep kick recently after BT & AdamK Tomahawk introduced it, digging it...
1 point : Gorgorgathgorgorgor - Do The Shamble : a huge improvement over last month's track for my tastes, I found myself going over the melody in my head on multiple occasions after listening

If I had more points, these are some but not all that would get 'em:

ReudiRena - Global Pitch : huge improvement over last months tracks, for me; catering to the masses :)
Bjporter - very inventive and the best sounds of the bunch to me, I wish the melodic part was a whole lot longer - it sounds like it's on the verge of something great but never gets there
SJMmusic - The Boat (Charlatan Solo) : This could have been tops, if it were a full song; probably my favorite *section* of the entire bunch
Doc Jon - Smoothie Charlie : really like the guitar-esque patch; I wish I could play the keys as well as you; our style differences may have some part in this
Thrax - Broken Silence : I love the intro to this tune, I was left wanting more when it breaks into the rest of it
Acronym - Perspectives : another really good beat this month, if only there was someone flowing over top, this would be awesome
Yeager - TrueColours : a few really great parts here, I wish they were consolidated somewhat... oh and you spelled COLORS wrong ;)

Good luck everyone, and thanks for your votes so far, glad most of you seem to like my track!

I think... thanks! Maybe one day I'll quit my day job and offer $2.25US z.prime shows! z.prime is the awesome!

Hi,

Above 14 us dollars would be the threshold to start thinking if I should go or not. Here its quite normal price for about any domestic artist or band. Very well known domestic bands with younger audience have ticket prices ranging from 20 usd to around 30.

Not in anyway I tried to offend or say your music sounds cheap. Just extra compliment to let you know I like the music, too hard to explain why I like good songs :D.

5)Yeager - True Colours

4)Gorgorgathgorgorgor - Do The Shamble

3)Bjulin - Peace

2)Irion Da Ronin - Surrounded By Light

1)Bjporter - Final Report


I liked Yeager's the best because it was a really good composition, with
lots of different cool sounds from the synth, and he changed tempos like three times! Way above and beyond the call.

I'd like to say that of all the OSC tunes I've listened to(I'm still working my way through the back catalogue), I like the tunes for this one second only to the Free Alpha comp. Charlatan really sounds great, and you guys are all great musicians.
