Thexder's Crusade - Sounds great. I have no complaints. I also have no chance.

The Mission With Deathly Consequences - Interesting arrangement, but very off-tuney most of the time. I just didn't really like it aside from the bass.

!st: Theo's intro is hands down the best. It really gears you up for the intense rocking out. You can't help but bob your head during the break down. And the guitar solo with the driving base line is to die for. Hands down the winner of this compo.

@nd: Lemon's Disco begins and ends a little to slow. I think that is what really hurt this entry. Everything else is great! But when stacked up against a Hardrockin' smooth take off by Theo, it just doesn't measure up. All in all, a solid number 2.

#rd: Alex's baseline is gritty and driving but, it doesn't make up for the lack of general appeal that can be found in the other tunes. Though original and well done, the experimental-ness of this piece does more to hurt it's ranking than help.

Theo's piece reeked with this live enthusiasm. I wouldn't have minded it a tad faster, but what was laid down is still engaging. Really liked the additions at 1:45-2:06. The transition to the ending could've been a little better, but overall I'd have to say this was my favorite.

I think I liked the arrangement most on Hylian Lemon's piece, but the middle really lacked energy, and I found my mind wandering. The synth at 0:27 is fun, and I would have liked to hear it have a reprise later. 1:00-16 could've been used to play with volume/attack levels to make it seem more building and engaging (just a thought. It seemed a tad static on the horns). 2:00-05 is a great transistion...to nothing, which was a little disappointing. The ending is well done, and I have to say, that your description definitely made me laugh the most.

When Alex said experimental and dirty bassline, he was very right. Those high squeals really didn't help me to enjoy the piece. The synth at 1:04 was a tad weak. Everything else behind it sounds like this industrial ironclad noise, which kind of conflicts with it as a lead synth. The ending leaves a lot to be desired.

Thexder's Crusade. I like my piece the best, because I feel it has the most continuity and great energy. It's also got some of my best guitar work to date.

Deadly Disco has some good synth and the beats are funky fresh. The snare drum has a nice pop to it. Plus, kudos for trying to write an interesting story about the piece.

The Mission with Deadly Consequences is little bit too experimental for my tastes. Besides, the production and mixing could use some work. The synths near the end are ear-piercing and painful.

TheoConfidor - Thexder's Crusade: a little cheesy but still pretty cool. The all-nighter paid off I think, this one is the most solidly put together of the entries.

AlexSmith - The Mission With Deadly Consequences: Pretty noisy but I like it. Thought you could've maybe done more with the drums/bass during the parts where there isn't any melody though.

Hylian_Lemon - Deadly Disco in the Dark: It was a close call for me between yours and AlexSmith's...I just liked that one a little bit more. Not that there's anything particularly wrong with this one.

Alex Smith - I like the intro, but not the horrible samples around 0:33 (and 2:11). I KILLS the song. The rest of the song is fine, but a bit boring because some parts are too long.
Hylian Lemon - Orchestral beginning. There's enough variation and the length is good. The last part is a bit boring.
TheoConfidor - Nice guitar, I like that. There's not variation, but the song is good. I like the balance between the strings and the guitar.

TheoConfidor gets a first place from me, thanks to his song being electric guitar, which seemed to work better than the genre used for the other two contestants' songs.

Speaking of which, I thought that Hylian Lemon's mix was the better of the two. It seemed better produced. Not that Alex's was at all bad, just not as good as the other two mixes.
