Okay this was legitimately hard to vote for because apparently Space brings out the best in everyone.

Damn, what a line-up, and deep sound design.

Ethansight's warm, embracing retrofuture sound won it for me. Good arrangement as well.

Random-Storykeeper had an excellent series of sounds, and a real structure to that rush hour.

Misael.K is also excellent, and deserves better than third place, but ... here we are.

Ethansight: Really digging this. The guitar was totally giving me Iji vibes, a game I'm quite fond of.

obScene: I love the sounds in this. I probably would have ranked it first if it had a proper ending

johnfn: Always a fan of those electronic trills, or whatever they're called. Very nice piece overall

1) "Night Ride" - I love the night-techno-futuristic vibe I get. It's very atmospheric and the soundscape here is impeccable. There's a weird combination of moody yet beautiful, which is very much to my liking.

2) "Heartbeat of a New City" - I love the parts with the lower fast moving notes that feel like impending...doom? Haha, but overall, the atmosphere of this piece was great.

3) "lonely space adventure" - Pads. Arps. Fast-moving bass. I really like how this piece develops as it goes along. Those really short notes at 1:04 are my favourite part.

ethansight: I felt the future. I fell in love with that guitar. Great job!

johnfn: ultra tight, amazing pads and arps. Very emotional.

Random-storykeeper: nice synths. I think some more aggressiveness would've been a cool touch. Good entry.
