Its because of you that the next competition might require a track longer than 1 minute. It sounds like the intro of a slamming techno track. I wanted more!

And seriously, that beat out of the sound of the lighter gas was just awesome.

+1

My thoughts exactly. More! Krzysztof, beautiful job.

Personally, Utenzil is my God and His track should have taken the prize. I just sacrificed a neighbor's cat to that cut.


UTENZIL!!!!!!!!!!

+1 Pure genius! The intro sets the mood briliantly into that brown sounding, deep beat.

Congrats on the win, very well deserved.

the submissions were great, I loved a lot of them and thought the judges were daffy until I heard the winning submission. I'm impressed by the whole lot. at times I just let them play back to back without knowing where the breaks were, there's a coherency to the songs, next contest - mix those tracks together into a single track!?


nice work by all!!

Congrats to each competitor and of course to winners!
Amazing the way that all of you guys managed to tweak these sounds !
I'd really like to see the way you achieved this,in case any one among you wish to post a live set of this and share your knowledge, it would be a great pleasure indeed !
Thanks for your inspiration again !

Congrats to the winners, well deserved!

Once again thanks to the Covops folks for a really fun contest that taught me a lot about Live.

If you search for the original thread about this you will read how a few folks created their sounds.

Congratulations Krzysztof!

I personally would not have been able to choose a winner if I were judging. Not a dull moment on any of the tracks.

Cheers!

wow! suprised to have managed runner up considering the quality of other contestants entries- well done to the other winners - really amazing stuff!

This is the kind of thing that makes this forum a good and inspiring place to go to! Not sure if thats grammatically correct but you know what I mean...

Well done cov ops for this and excellent work from everyone!

Be glad to post sets - not that exciting really though. Hopefully get round to that soon though.

THANKS!

damn.
you guys should have picked a winner with a balance of COMPOSITION and sound design. Krystof's track sounds like an intro to me, whereas alot of the other entries seemed to realise there were compositional boundries in the 30 second limit - and worked within those boundries.
