Chickenwarlord - Song sounds a bit MIDI'ish, but it's not bad. I like the piano, I don't like the drums very much. There isn't much variation in sampling. The ending is not very nice.
Knives - Funny beginning, I like the trancey samples and the drums. There isn't much variation in it. I don't like the 'out of range' notes from the rest of the song. Last section is all the same.
S|r Nuts - Nice beginning. The samples are good and the song variates good. The ending is typical good.

If it were just the first two entries, it would have been a close race, but add in Sir_NutS and they don't have a chance. Sorry guys.

Sir_NutS gets first place. Knives gets second. And Chickenwarlord gets third.

I'm gonna have to be brief with this. Not much time waits for my contribution.

If it was just the first two entries it would have been close, but throw in Sir Nuts and they don't stand a chance - possibly the only entry that managed to maintain coherent listening ideas along with familiarity of the source tune, along with strong production values considering the competition.

If I have to pick between the other pair, I think Knives's mix was a little more interpretive and polished. The reason why it didn't get a first place marker for me was due to it having the same kind of feel throughout; I appreciate the house inspiration but the repetition may end up putting some people off here.

Chickenwarlord's mix was kind of fun, but I feel there wasn't quite enough new stuff added to warrant it any higher position, so I'm sorry that he once again should get my third place marker to.
