ooooh, all good tracks. my vote goes to an owl too, that track was just cool, and a different style than what is usually heard on here.

Hseiken should win this. Usually a youtube clip is a “bad thing”, but in this case it adds some extra points!

Voted for Mellow, thought I'd throw some support behind the most leftfield track. The final 1:06 with that bitcrushed wobble & wide open atmosphere was exactly the right level of gloom for my tastes & a great payoff for the slightly static 1:55. I kept waiting for waiting for it to turn into a Portishead song.

But Owl's melodic take was equally brilliant & HS continues his march to the the best at resampling.

Another tough comp to judge...

Wow, as Unfolding Machines said this was another tough one.

Loved the live video from hseiken, really nice work with the resampling, very impressive and it all came together perfectly. Good job balancing all the sounds too :)

Unfolding Machines had a nice drum n bass feel and I dig the riff in the background. I really liked the sort of frequency tuning sound at the end there too, came in really nicely.

For djmellow I really liked that track as well. Love the vibe, reminded me of some krush/portishead like Machines said. The last part is just nuts and I like how you used these samples.

An Owl's was badass too. Great melodies mixed in there and I like how you played from one part right into the next. Really nice feel to it.

In the end I'm going for Hseiken for the magic hands at the beginning of the video :P in all seriousness that was just really impressive and had a great flow. All the beats were awesome though.

I'd vote AnOwl but my computer won't play videos without freezing so I can't hear hseiken's :roll:

Thanks anyway kel.

I'm happy to let djmellow or hseiken host the next one, or if they're busy I don't mind doing the next one too.
