RSK: a true love song :') and if OHC is a competition geared towards making the most out of the least time, RSK should win for putting together _that_ in _less_ than an hour!

johnfn: those chips + the song length and its overall structure!!

coral: PEEEEENNIIIIISSSSS

What a tough round.

Theme adherence was an absolute must. Originality, a must as well.

Wow.

Random-Storykeeper's harmonies won the day. LunacyEcho's perky swing was the runner-up. Johnfn was absolutely true to his title.

Great work. Wish I'd had more votes.

I voted based on theme (and description) and feels. Butterflies In Your Belly feels so substantial. Monsquaz Love has so much attitude, and Chiptoon Lofe is just delightful.

I'm always super impressed by live recordings (and lyrics): Eternal Love, Distant Hearts.... Как бы́стро идёт вре́мя, meh guitar, qtPILuv, monoculture (THA SAUCEEE)

I also enjoyed entangled, it's so laid back. And Mason's Island II b/c chiptune

LunacyEcho: This one was just so chipper and happy I loved it

RSK: Very nice singing and Piano work

Johnfn: 2 nice chiptunes I really liked, but overall I enjoy yours more
(Daisu64's was also really good)

1. un-- unsettling...?
   rseonp
2. qtPIluv
   garlagan
3. Eternal Love
   Koekepan

Narrowing these choices to just my top three was hard.

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

1) "un-- unsettling...?" - Although this piece is just shy of a minute, I really love everything that happens in it. From the gentle, lush sound design to the way the piece progresses overall. I like how it manages to become unsettling without ever becoming harsh. The overall vibes I get from this piece are thematic enough, as an added plus.

2) "qtPIluv" - This was probably my most favourite out of the vocal entries. The phrasing in it is just great. And going in and out of those effects was just...everything.

3) "Eternal Love" - Suuuuuper creepy. But I gotta give it you: this was unique to all the other entries. Your vocals suit this kind of unsettling, acoustic song very well, especially when you growl out that "diiiiie".

---------

I liked so many of the entries (if not all? lol), but these were some of the ones that I tossed around as possible voting candidates:

- "a Paradoxcial Feedback Loop" by skandix - Love the panning, love the atmosphere BUT THOSE LAST THREE SECONDS lmao
- "Mason's Island II" by daisu64 - Chiptune and strong melodic work were hard to ignore.
- "Butterflies In Your Belly" by Misael.K - I thought this was one of the entries that most related to the theme.
- "Kiss in the City" by Arcana - Everything about the setup and the accompaniment is fantastic - the only thing it needs now is a melody that stands out more. :P
- "Как бы́стро идёт вре́мя" by min - The parts with the echoing vocals warm my heart.

This was a great week. Well played, everyone! <3

Random-storykeeper: I'm in love with this song. It's too beautiful.

daisu64: OMG, such chips! the main melody here is absolutely great. And those harmonies!

johnfn: I like the chords, the rhythms, and the melodies in this piece. It sounds lovey without being obnoxious.

Special mention to LunacyEcho: a lot of cheese, and good cheese at that. 

awesum: coral, daisu64, garlagan, jarski, johnfn, Koekepan, LunacyEcho, Random-storykeeper.
good: Arcana, Mehhh, rseonp, skandix.
