Dream Drifting felt pretty solid, and it's more my kind of genre than Shroom Trip was. Shroom Trip was fun too, I liked the reinterpretation of the melody in 4/4. It did drift away from the source towards the end, though.

Hylian Lemon - Nice start. The drums and the bass are a bit too hard. I like the piano a lot. The string at the end is very nice
Setokaibarocket - I like the sampling in the bginning. It's the same tune the whole song, but I can't say I don't like it. The 'higher notes' in the last part are a nice way to end, but again not variating much.
Evktalo - Totally different song, very nice. I think the balance in the song isn't perfect, the bass is dominating. Good you're back in remixing, I hope to see more from you in the upcoming PRC's.

No major production concerns in either of these entries, although the organ thing in Cosmic Plumber clips once in a while. Not sure why, because it's not overly loud.

Interpretation-wise, they were both good, but Cosmic Plumber didn't have quite as much. And Shroom Trip has too much of that other song in it, but they fit together, so I don't mind much...

Overall, I liked Shroom Trip better, but it's WAY TOO LOUD D:

Hylian's felt the most complete and balanced. It also was very relaxing for me, and thus wins bonus points.

Seto: as usual, you use at least one sound that absolutely grates on my nerves, but everything else is pretty solid. Some more work on balancing your sound ranges couldn't hurt.

Evktalo: Not bad, but it really didn't stick out to me in any way. I couldn't remember anything about the piece about five minutes after listening to it (meaning it couldn't have been horrendous) but kind of vanilla.

1. *drools* I want to see this on the OCR front page. Soon.

Last two were a tough call... really tough. Shroom Trip is impressive (how you people make these sounds fit so snugly always boggles me), and had some great bits of melody - one part had me twitching with joy because it reminded me of the sailing theme from FF1... XD But Cosmic Plumber did something completely different with the organ and guitars, something I like much more than trancey stuff. It was fresh, new; didn't really go out there on a limb with the melody, but everything else... So, there y'have it.

All three were really good, but I had to place them, so ...

Hylian Lemon is first. evktalo is second. setokaibarocket is third.

Good job guys.
