What can I say? Both of them were just... awesome! Smooth, brilliantly done, and for a lack of other adjectives, damn nice! Hard to choose between them, but Sir_Nuts' peice just scraped the first place vote for having a certain epic feel to it that I can't quite put my finger on.

1) I like Nuts's techno approach to this theme. It's well done all around, even if it loses some coherence in places where it's so dramatically different in places that it feels like it's another song altogether. I love the double time feel about halfway through. I actually had a percussion DnB idea done that I gave up on. There are a few places where the melody gets sort of frantic on the piano trying to get everything in there. That fast crazyness is love/hate for me, but overall I like it.

2) I like the arrangement of this fine, but some of the instruments don't sound that great. The guitar sticks out as kinda a sore spot for me. I'd have liked to hear more reverb on the strings. The drums were arranged okay, I'd like to hear more pop on that snaredrum beat, maybe it's just the sample I don't like here too. Props at 2:09 for the slow piano break. Loved it. Another fun take on the source.

one thing to say...it was hard to choose. from nuts and his sample (good ol' memories) to JerryTerry piece (it can be improved indeed but the result is not that bad), without forgetting hewhoisiam (i like a lot the "poly rhythm" like you call it)

Hewhoisiam - I like the start background. The start is long, but the song is really calm and relaxing. The ending is nice as well.
JerryTerry - It takes long before something happens, and the first part isn't variating much. After 2:00 the song is too quiet and it ends that way.
S|r Nuts - Nice to see you around again. Interesting start, but a little long. When the song comes to life it's really good. The song variates enough, but the ending is a little too long.

They were all good, but Sir Nuts had the best. And second is hewhoisiam and third is JerryTerry.

I'm surprised that there weren't more entries.
