Great work. ethansight for the overall quality. Koekepan for the bossa nova. obScene had some great bright feelings, I really enjoyed the lead and the call and response between the lead synth and the piano.

obScene: Everything really just came together great. That piano in the background and the drums were the highest points for me.
dusthillguy: I uh, maybe the bpm was refreshing. But what a wonderful creation.
johnfn: Doesn't have many layers, obviously with the tools ya had. Really just a simple progression that you filled out very wonderfully.

My choices were made on strict basis of relevance to theme.

MisaelK was perfect. A collage of memories. He knows how to evoke them.

Random-storykeeper really got the beach theme, somehow, but was a bit weaker on the latin musical element.

ethansight's beat didn't work for me, but the sound selection was excellently evocative, and moved beautifully without.

1) "Memories of So Long Ago" - I like how this manages to capture liveliness while still being somewhat laid back. Also your melody game seems stronger in this entry than some of your previous ones. :P

2) "Brazilian Bittersweetness" - This really makes me think of a laid back beach summer theme, and it is bittersweet, too! I found some of the instruments to be a bit too loud in comparison to the others, but the ideas overall are good.

3) "liquid dnb 0202" - Well I get beach vibes from the bell-like sounds at the beginning. And I do really like that bass. This seems so dissonant, but sounds so neat.
