on Shade - Loud and louder by djshade
Like the way the slightly bassier note is coming in. Great build in with the beat.

You bring stuff in smooth, sounds really good.

Great!! Love the way the melody moves up, that was killer.

Is this you singing too? I'll have to check you out. Great work.

Thank s lot Calif. No it's not my sound, it is a voice from fl studio. But no loops used in my tracks as usual, all is handmade :)

on Crucify our flesh (Mix) by LegendaryChristophe
Sounds a little dry, or naked, - like it is missing some frequencies in there somewhere, but I can't quite say where. Sounds like it could be really good if it wasn't so dry.

Eh the dryness is kinda growing on me, but it is a little off putting at first.

on Stars (Instrumental Mix) by DjShifter
I see like a cross between color changing squares on a dance floor and an equalizer composed of several led lights kinda all moving through the space in my mind.

This is very nice!! Wow! Again i love this competition because I am hearing OUTSTANDING music that I haven't heard yet.

So smooth, love the synths, rhythm and wooshing sound fx.

Great work.

on Just Smile by NioNai
Yeh I really love the texture that the spaces between the synth signals gives. It's like flaky chocolate wafers. Nice track!! Smiles here too 4 sure.

Really has that special aura to it, and it feels both completely varied while still completely consistent. Coolio.

on You'r Telling Me (masterd) by tommyb
beautiful instruments, and yes excellent acapella.

THIS IS SOOOO COOL.

I agree with Robro, I would buy it too. Favd. Congratulations.

I think you won the Garage genre. THough I'm not sure how this is garage. But i think wait - man that sucks.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UK_garage

I wish I had read that before - I read something else and thought garage was something like a garage band.

Jeeez. Anyways. awesome track. after all that and it is sitll rockin. cheers.

on Ska Skank by Global Ska Network by SLAPJOHNSON
This does rock tho!! Definitely feels good. Probably the funnest most kick a$s vibe i've ever heard on the site!! The energy in this really comes across. Vry cool man.

I want a skunk. Wait I already have one don't I?

what's a skunk? I might be making a fool of myself playing around with the word without knowing what it means. :)

It could mean so many things.

Oh jeez. It's not even skunk is it. It's skank.

:D Grrreat jam whatever it is. Cheers.

So just listened to it with my buddy and it is indeed skunk!! Cool.

SLAPJOHNSON replied Unknown
Hi Califken, I'm glad you liked this track. I have to admit it's one of my fav's. A skank is a dance by the way. The lyric is everybody ska skank not ska skunk. I think that's quite a funny image though, a ska skunk...

Cheers Slap...

on Indestructible moon monsters by Finn69
Cool sounds. Like the vague melody that is moving beneath everything. Really cool tie in with the moon monsters and the bassy synth sounds.

Cool vocal clips too.
Finn69
Finn69 replied Unknown
Thanks man, feel like i'm gradually getting the hang of bass levels and stuff. nice one.

on On My Own by Salkizar
OMG. This comp has been by far the coolest experience I've had on this site, because it has brought everyone's best stuff up to the surface in a design that someone actually listens to all of it. And it's been great, b/c again, here I am just AMAZED at someone else who I am familiar with doing something I had no idea they were doing. Amazing, touching vocals. SRV style guitar.

man. You are awesome. Great work.

Great voice, such cool textures and inflections. Grrrrreat.

on Shadows talk to me; Global Ska Network by SLAPJOHNSON
SOOOO is this sax harmonization I'm hearing? Beautiful and cool.

SLAP your voice SHHHi. You just knocked me back all over again. Just cuz you're making my mind spin with your good stuff here, I'm having ideas ... like with your voice and the sax, you should do something that blends from one to the other in a delicately cohesive way ... kinda like you sing "You made me feel ..." and as you sing a fade out of feel, the sax fades in and you play on the sax how you feel. That would be awesome.

Love your voice, both through just yourself and through your sax. Is there a clever nickname for a sax? like a guitar is an axe? cuz i would have used it.

on questioning the system by HustleUnion
Cool beat. Love the music that comes in too!!! Honestly, I would remove the gov't not giving a fk part b/c it kinda starts the song on a very caustic note, whereas the song is really groovy and cool.
HustleUnion
HustleUnion replied Unknown
yeah it was a mix of alot of thing like how i was feeling that day about politics, but mostly tring a new way to open the song. after the contest i might change it up. thanx for listening

on A Good Day in Hell by Crims
Damn it that is trippy weird. You should submit this for video games or maybe to the history channel for their pieces about topics of this flavor. Interesting!

on Just Tonight by theHumps
Well this is the first track of yours that didn't create some entity moving through some environment in my mind. This time, it's just chill. Kind of like in the bar during the day, when the music IS more sober. This is also very QT.

Nice work!

(edit - argh! grammar. cheers bro)

on watch the river flow by mandolinmatt
interesting use of panning and vocals!! i like this. i really like the track. If anything, the drums at certain points sound a little too unorganic for the sound of the rest of the track. I think if you had some different drum sounds with some more swing and variation in velocity and timing, it might sound a little more cohesive. But good work. Very chill and bluesy. Love the descrip too how it was written by a river. Wait now I got - I was thinking you were being metaphoric and saying that the river wrote the song, but you actually mean you wrote it by the river. Which is cool, too!! :) he he. Cheers.
