Phew, I'm up way too late but have at least managed the first part of my voting: Sorting y'all into 2:s and 4:s

And the Fraggles rock

I loved it as a kid, still do so my kids are getting scarred for life, I guess...

Well, I'm down to 30 tracks left to vote on, so half way through. I can't believe how much amazing music and production there was this time around. I honestly don't see how anybody can pick the top 5 let alone a winner. This one is really a crap shoot.

Props to all the folks who put in some amazing performances. The nuances of this synth were not lost on anybody and really brought out the best from this crew.

As much as my track improved from last month's, with the level of this month's entries, I'm guessing I will wind up somewhere between 55 and 58.

Will be sitting 76 out unless I can miraculously get Evo to work.

Anyway, great job guys!

You outdid yourselves this month.

Oh man, I'm not sure how I actually haven't watched that until now... even after watching the Hasselhoff video multiple times.

But, that is awesome.

Voted!

Amazed at all the talent out there, but had to push every one down a point to give Jasinski the only 5 since there's no 6!

Ha, thanks!
Turns out it's actually produced in Sweden so I guess state television (SVT) has exclusive rights to view it here...

Voted!

Wow! What a huge amount (60) of excellent tracks here this month.
"Syntax Project - Challenger" and "z.prime - Believe" are my favs this month.

How much time do you spend making this track?

I spend weeks creating my track.

I too have pushed everyone down one slot on my first pass (were 2-5) and moved a few of the 4's up to 5 - so I can use the whole range.

A very hard month to judge - but to me there are some outstanding tracks (maybe different from others - but, hey, that's the nature of music appreciation etc ...)

So, dB has voted.

I voted... Frankly this thing is getting a bit big for me to handle. Never mind trying to win, just trying to actually listen to 60 songs is a huge commitment...

Lots of awesome tracks. I think the overall quality is the best I've seen, so well done all!

In total I have spent 6 hours, divided into a week!

The reason some don't or can't participate probably. And it's no doubt even worse if you take the voting really seriously and worry about not getting it on a first pass or having to listen to some tracks at a bad time. And given a big a field of entries some voters maybe gravitate towards having favorites which can also be less than an ideal situation.

I still regularly check in for the few tracks from KVR members that I know but taking on the task of carefully listening to an unlimited number of entries of whatever duration is unfortunately not something I generally am able to do.

So it goes. Life is finite in duration and luckily there are others who can participate to keep these things going.
