I'd be lying if I said it hadnt crossed my mind, but nah,m I give him the benefit of the doubt! If he wins, he can explain the process of the drums, I'd love to know.

On the competition front...told you so. :P

Yeah, what would be really nice, if after the votes/comments are closed and the winner(s) decided, would be nice if the als files were shared so that people could see how the tracks were constructed.

And I like the idea that competitors should vote for someone else, even if they think their own is the best then vote for the second-best. It's like the Eurovision Song Contest, but with better music, worse dancing and the same danger of vote manipulation... :)

... 6 has created a great mix, but I also love the eerie sound that 5 created from the sample! Wanted me to listen to it multiple times.
So my vote goes to 5!!!

5, I'd love to know how you created that sound from the given sample... Would you please enlighten us/me after the votes have been counted?

I would have posted six as my choice but seeing as though it looks like he/she was trying to be clever and bump up his/her votes I'll have to go for

4

Oh, 8 is bloody marvellous, got a great "Light My Fire" thing going on there. But I'm sticking with my original vote for number 3 - that had me at the opening synth chords... :)

difficult to vote, been listening to most of the tracks now two times or more while packing suitcase ... my vote also goes to 4.

But all the others are very close, and maybe I should have voted number 8? Or number 5?

Uh, I would have loved to have had mor time last week, but I was travelling, working, family visiting me, my little kid needs attention ... I even started a little thing one night, extracting the groove from the accordeons and making a nice little beat and some piano arpeggios, but nothing worth positng ...

hopefully have more time for the next battle!!!!

8O 8 is sinister. I refuse to change my vote though. I'm staying with 4 on GP.

Also with no mention of 1 I decided to go back and have a listen. I remembered liking it and I want the artist to know, for what its worth... I think its way cool.

They really are all winners. I don't beleive that's lip service... or key service or interwebwhatnotservicioblah

Fine job all the way round.
