I uploaded the mp3 to Soundcloud, so if you download from there you will get the mp3 I uploaded.

I assume that's within the rules??

Certainly not!

Le me guess - you don't hear the drums

Just raise the volume. On one hand I mixed the drums low as suits the style and on the other hand I used some brush strokes in the repeating patterns. The brushes don't stick out that much.

Ah yes - sneaky

Since we were forced to use Midi Drums in the style of Phil Collins, here is a Brand X track with Phil C on drums.

Never before have I done a piece over a drum track. It gave difficulties so I don't think I will use this method on my composings. Perhaps you find to suggest something easier for feb music creation

The inspiration came from an old Contest on different forum many years-ago, but Only difference was then it was unmixed wav stems. I was thinking about doing that here also, but I think that would not be so popular here.

I enjoyed it much more than I thought it was going to. I normally like a loose theme on a topic, but this was an interesting change. Cool to see how it inspired people differently.

Indeed. It required both brain cells to co-operate

Interesting that most people got a zero from someone ... shows that we have a good variety of musical tastes ... a good thing

Well, the situation is so and so clear already, congrats to winners and everybody who participated!

Nowdays even the free tools that are available to music producers are many, have a very good pro quality, and cover the hole process from idea development to mastering. Thus success in our little contest requires one to be a good composer, musician, arranger and studio engineer who knows to work with lots of very demanding software.

My appreciation.
