Some memorable things:

* The Vox and the sick groove in DDRKirby's
* The ascending arp that gives the song an RPG volcano soundtrack feel in MisaelK
* The earthquake noise channel in Polaroid's
* The acid bass in Koekepan's
* The intense saws in DarkShadow's
* The jittery FM lead in animatrix's
* The low bass and bubbly sound in jessiejames's

I think this is one of my favorite of Arcana's tracks. It's got a great vibe and some solid funk to it. Misael's invoked the images and was very thematic (tm). I also dug the Kirby track. Good job, guys

It was really hard to choose from all of the entries but I am big into intricate rhythms and felt that these had a good rhythmic vibe especially with our topic for this week...volcanoes...

IF YOU CANT STAND ANY SORT OF CRITISISM THEN FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, DON'T READ THIS
also sorry for the wall of text that you have here. I said something for every song.

DarkShadow - Activated
It is hard to follow and it feels very offtempo. The start good but that synth could be a bit more consistant during the song.

Animatrix1419 - Vulcano
The transitions feels natural which is good. The short break in the song gives some well needed rest and makes it less repetetive.

Jessiejames1978 - Boiling over
The pulsating base gives a feeling of threat and the bubbeling helps the pulse and the rythm. The guitar thing goes very far back in the sound, and everything is a bit blurred together. It feels like there is no more focusing point than the pulse in the background. The drumthing is going a bit too crazy at some places.

Polaroid giraffe - Impending doom
The base is very wide and that makes it a bit distant. The drums is very repetetive and could be a bit less. Then the noise added to the bass empathises it a bit which it needs. The wobbly sound does that as well.

Misael.k - 900 degrees celsius:
I like the use of a pad and a lot more high frequencies compared to what you would expect from a volcano tune. And it works, which is cool. The synths are nice as well and the base shifts. The echoing cymbal is nice as well.

Koekepan - Volcano Worshipper Dance
Cool use of a lowpassfilter, and beat add to the intesity. The other sounds sometimes sound a bit out of place because of the big difference in pitch.

DDRkirby(ISQ) - The Volcano Tribe
I really like how the synth often glides to the note where it lands. The harpiscord(i think thats what it is) is a nice start and it makes a pretty cool return. The intensity is almost constantly upped which makes it is nice to listen how it evelvo through the song. The ending is a bit aprupt though.

Arcana - Obsidian Icicles
I really like the synth in the begining and how the beat builds up from it. The "im counting on you today" feels very out of place(im not shure its intentional or not). The melodie could be a bit more interesiting though.

GreyHooves - Magma Town
Feels like a chiptune mediaval village. Its a bit empty though.

DDRKirby(ISQ): I'm always a fan of Middle-eastern sounding music :D

Misael.K: I'm getting the vibes of a secret volcano laboratory, and I like it.

animatrix1490: This definitely feels like a lava level from a video game. It's giving me Metroid vibes.
