The deciding factor was theme relevance - otherwise the top three might have looked very different.

Johnfn had a strong musical narrative that edged him ahead of Random-storykeeper.

johnfn for the cool song overall. Good development and sound selection.

NickC I liked the development and direction. It was dark but expanded into really cool stuff. Noisy but tense.

coolgreenapple: Great wall of sound and beautiful guitar.

1) "Data Story - Insight Unseen" - I like the vibes and the sounds overall. Maybe some of the leads are a bit on the loud side, but I do like the variety of the instruments that take the lead as a whole.

2) "The Radio inside your Head" - That repeating cycle throughout the entire piece gives that right kind of nagging feeling that I think you were going for. Not annoying, just more like a "hey listen" in a slightly more subtle manner. :P

3) "Eternity" - More 8bit jarski yes please. This rocks!

NickC: the nagging feeling may be a body decaying in the basement but cool, that's super theme-accurate. Great atmosphere.

Random-storykeeper: super loveliness! the simple idea of "forgetting something" works really well here.

johnfn: this sounds like a memory from the past coming back to haunt you (regardless of the title). Very emotive.
