Man this was a really slow competition. Only 12 votes too, I feel like the other ones had closer to 20 recently. Must be cuz of the holidays?

Not sure what happened here. Iā€™m going to announce the winner in a few.

Second place ainā€™t shabby though!

There are no winners or losers.

In fact, carrying on with that thought, I would like to make the next one a tune challenge, not a competition.

Something more conceptual maybe. Perhaps I will do a sample pack but mainly just concepts and ideas. Maybe I will just give you snare(32).wav and you will have to use that in your tune at least once.

Oh for sure dude. Iā€™m really pleased with my songs lately. I wish I had more time to put into this one.

Which song was yours, and which was ronzlos, btw?

@mks would love to have a more restricted challenge. Weā€™ve had plenty of freedom in these last couple

Mine was #1.

I went back to some older generative setups I had and plugged in the samples. Once the play button is hit I have little control over anything except the levels and sends, and thatā€™s what this is - riding the randomness with just faders and pots.

Iā€™m actually happier w the levels in this thanā€¦ well, ever actually.

@Tolsof thanks for the nice words. :cowboy_hat_face:

Big up @mks!!! :hooray:

I liked the 3 feel bass a ton. I was sitting there thinking around halfway through hoping it went to double time or something and the crazy syncopated drums came in and it was way better. Sick song dude

Nice. Yours was really solid, just a bit long for me ngl.

Too long for me as well haha. Id had enough of it by the end!

That sound of ice comp was pretty dope - the video was fairly long but wasnā€™t much to work for conventional sound design.

ā€¦thereā€™s always that threadā€¦ :man_shrugging:t2:

Probably going to step out from the production comps for a bit.
I just donā€™t have the spare time for a few months to be able to devote any time to it.

Expect lower production value tho

Definitely going to pick it up again in the future.
Maybe around March or April time. I got my coursework going hard right now, and I just canā€™t dedicate any time to making music or the comp atm.
