I didn't expect you would like it so much, but watching your votes, i'm very grateful and realized.
I really enjoyed all your OSC27 songs, from ambient to electronic.
All songs were made with effort, none of them is worse than another, this is very important.
For that, keep making music and keep improving yourself if you are not in my final voting list. The effort today, it will be paid tomorrow.
It was a difficult decision. Because all of you have good things in each of your songs.
I made my own voting system to make things easier which i will explain below.
I put all 18 tracks in a list. I removed mine. 17 total.
Then, i made a voting system with 3 stars. This is, i would add one star to each song with this requirements... Feeling, Quality and Efficiency:
- *Feeling: One star for songs which i liked so much, this is, the song made me feel something. Artistic or emotive expression.
*Quality: One star for songs which sounds great generally, this means good quality of sound, EQ, Compression, Automations, etc. Technical expression.
*Efficiency: One star for songs which were made with a low ammount of instances, this is efficiency from the creator to make a great song with a low equip or a low ammount of instances, i think this is a very important thing. Skill expression.
From those 17 tracks, i got a total of 9 thanks to "star system".
From those 9 tracks i only chose those which i really loved.
So i had 5 tracks and i needed to put in order of preference, this was when i listened those 5 tracks again and again to make the final decision.
This is the last list in order and some pros:
- 5 points - Happy Frog - Surfing with Ballerinas
·PROS: A great sound passage, relaxing and ambiental general sound, great use of soft beat. Great quality and heartfelt song using a low ammount of instances, only 9 instances! That's a great job from the creator! Reminds me to Puzzle Arcade song, a Xbox360 puzzle videogame i really enjoy for relax myself. Perfect length to not bore the listener. Cheers!
4 points - V'ger - Soma
·PROS: Powerful start and strong bass. Great quality. It made me imagine about a militar incursion in team, impressive. Perfect length to not bore the listener. Cheers!
3 points - Elipsis - Alphanumeric
·PROS: A great job with automations, retrigger notes, soundtypes and electronic flow. EQ improved in relation to the old entry. This means improving quality, and improving yourself is a good thing in any field. Cheers, dude!
2 points - Ancient - TokyoClockwork
·PROS: The great and heartfelt "guitar" sound, simply awesome. Great beat flow. Great quality. The "Loop factor", this is, you could play the song in a loop and never get bored or tired, that's a good thing. Cheers!
1 point - Doc Jon - Last Voyage of the Tethis
·PROS: Another relaxing passage and a great melody that enters your eardrums, you can't avoid that melody. Great quality. Cheers!
So that's all. I really enjoyed my first experience here.
I also downloaded some tracks from all of your older OSCs, and i'm really very impressed. I put my favourites tracks from those older OSCs in my MP3Player and i really had a great time today listening them in the field.
Well, nothing more to say, thanks for the votes, they are really making me happy, but i'm even happier knowing there are people who likes my song in another part of the world.
Special thanks to:
