It was a pretty challenging week, I also wanted to vote for:

ashka starla johnfn MisaelK Atmospherium Koekepan

LunacyEcho for the sheer quality. Also the cool freestyling. nukage for the completeness and the density. A2Z for the speedcore-like fast section, it's so catchy and retro.

Relevance is always job 1.

There were other good entries, but some of them fell down on relevance, and of the clearest links, starla's stood out as a close first over nukage's Toll House.

@Everyone the reason why the hi-hat might sound a little off, is because i used a little swing. Personally i don't hear any problems, it might be the swing deceiving you lol.

@Arcana/A2Z - Interesting how you call it Happy Hardcore, as i would call it more like a Eurodance vibe, or a house/techno thing. It's not fast, more in the 130bpm range.

@Ashka - Grandma is disappointed, because i rushed it, and didn't get a chance to expand it, for time reasons (Not to mention 30 minutes of trying to come up with ideas, but switching back and fourth between the ideas. Cookies man, there so easy, as a theme, but at the same time, so hard haha.

Ok then...

TheVideoGamer - The track comprises, of a range of sampled materials, on top of a thick punchy beat (By samples, i mean music/other songs). In terms of the sample combinations, i love it, however it's short, and could be expanded, and in some ways, i felt i rushed it. Oh well, just hope you enjoy it yes?

dusthillguy - This is actually really nice. I love the retro 80's feel, with a nice lo-fi kind of synth. The drums and melody are such a great combo, this sounds pretty awesome, melodically. Well done!

RAMPKORV - Really nice melodies here, simple and effective. Sadly there are some timing issues, that take it down a notch, but it's nice so good job!

DarkShadow - OOF what sugar rush! Could the basslines be any more aggressive haha? Whatever's in these cookies, it was very energetic. Good job!

Nukage - Daam Nuke, this is funky! I love the bass synths, and the rather nice simple 4 on the floor grooves. Well done!

A2Z - Starts of in a nice shuffle groove, before it comes into a straight fast 4/4 techno feel. In some ways, reminds me of Boomer. Personally, needs a little bit of refinement, and it's short, but i liked it so good job!

Atmospherium - I'm liking how Cookie Monster made an appearance, in a cookie round lol. It sounds nice, however i feel Cookie Monster conflicts with the backing track, i don't know. Sounds great, just feels...er...slightly off. Good job though!

Silverpool64 - Liking how this sounds. Bit basic, needs a lot of enhancements, and expansion, but again it sounds nice. Good job!

DDRKirby(ISQ) - The pad chords are amazing, i loving the different range of ideas, it sounds less weird than you make it out to be. I'm not feeling the metronome, personally, but i love the range of unique sounds. Well done!

Ashka - Can you for once, actually make a track i don't like? It's so annoying putting you first. I mean are you even a producer, or are you a god? WHY IS THIS SOOO GOOD, LIKE THE CHORDS ARE ON ANOTHER LEVEL.

NickC - Ow my ears lol. Is this supposed to sound like the Magic Roundabout theme? Google it if you don't know what i mean.

JH Sounds - No offence dude, i think you need a better drumset. It sounds weak, and far back into the mix. The rest is nice though, i really do like your voice a lot. Good job!

Koekepan - Ok first listen, it felt like it went on and on, but when i shut my eyes, and turned the lights off...the experience was on another platform entirely. The sound design, is really really good. Consider your length though, for this kind of track, don't want it to get too repetitive. Still though, loved this a lot, so awesome work!

Starla - This track is so nice, the drums feel like trap music, but in a house rhythm. Chords were great, and the vocals were lovely, if a bit quiet. Bring the vocals up, and this could be awesome, even though i like it a lot. Well done!

Arcana - I'm really digging these drums, they were punchy as hell. Track as a whole was great, liking the idea, however the mix was uneven. Still though, good job!

Misael.K - Can't go wrong with only 2 chords. Not everything in life has to be complicated. Loving the range of sounds, however the drums weren't doing it for me. (The glitchy effects added though, i'll admit, were really something). Beef up the drums, and it will be awesome. Good job though!

Johnfn - The drums really do take up a lot of the frequency spectrum. Shame too, because these are so seriously dope beats. Rest was also lovely, still liking your voice, even if the mix can get a little loud. Still enjoyed it though, so good job!

LunacyEcho - Woooow you have some serious songwriting chops. It feels scary though, i keep hearing Tiny Little Adiantum in my head, not just in the key signature, but in the vocal style too. Ignoring that, this was such a bop, well done!

Top 3 - Ashka, LunacyEcho, Koekepan

Awesome - dusthillguy, Nukage, DDRKirby(ISQ), Ashka, Koekepan, Starla, LunacyEcho

Needs Work - RAMPKORV, DarkShadow, A2Z, Atmospherium, Silverpool64, NickC, JH Sounds, Arcana, Misael.K, Johnfn
