Carving mainly because it has a acultural feel, 42 because I am a huge fan of this type of piano work, Lost lands is awesome, just awesome.

There was a lot of good work this week.

mv: This is epic all around. Great development, buildup, and all of that stuff. I don't know what else to say. It's full and rich, there's lots of stuff going on and yet it never feels crowded. Very movie score.

DarkShadow: I really liked this, from the Medieval beginning to the hard dance party. Great gating. I especially loved the glitch transition.

blastron: I liked the chords, and the bass was really good. Each element is very unified and makes for a very satisfying whole. It's a traditional but very good song structure. If you want to make stuff louder, try throwing the limiter on it and boosting it to +3.0 gain; alternately throw compressors on individual tracks and set the Auto Gain to +0dB then adjust the gain from there. But maybe you already knew that!!

Also liked but could not vote for: johnfn, easynam, Bren, DDRKirby(ISQ), Forty-Two, DacksUnlimited, Acuity, Transcient.

  1. temple taste
    sci
  2. Exhibition to Legend Isles
    A-zu-ra
  3. The Monster Within
    Trancient
sci - this has a somewhat temple influence, it sounds like(maybe because of the koto). the vocal samples add an interesting touch also.
Trancient - interesting synth instrument, nice pianos.
Acuity/StatusKuo - nice piano and violin collaboration work.
A-zu-ra - amazing work, great atmosphere. interesting lead instrument also, generates a relatively calm feel overall.
