September Composition Competition - VOTING TIME!!!!

[charic]

Hmm, can't see that here

[BigRedX]

Has it released whoever voted for him's vote?

The poll says 14 members have cast votes, but if you add up the totals there's only 13 votes now that tacsi has been removed.

BTW I've cast my vote. Lots of great compositions. Good thing I didn't listen to any of them first as I might not have bothered with mine.

Sorry, sorry, sorry...I cheated My band is called Tacsi and I linked to a song we wrote last year, it wasn't written this month.[/quote]

Ha ha, well at least you're honest! I thought the song had been inspired by the picture, especially as it had lyrics about cold water, or something (or was it cold sea? Or cold tea?? I can't check as I'm at work, but it was something watery...). Nice track anyway; I really like it.

PS: genuinely stoked that I have 6 votes! Cheers folks, that's warmed my cockles on what is an otherwise crappy day

[redstriper]

Thanks for the kind words chaps, I'm not drinking before posting again (much)

I don't think there's a bad track out of all the entries (which makes it a hard choice), but I think you have a very accomplished track that fits the theme well.

For any of you guys/girls who use Midi for composing, you might find this site very helpful.
Lots of great tips and geek gear talk.

Good work people - while not all of a similar standard the effort and imagination here is all to be highly commended - well done everyone.

I voted for the one I liked the best - I liked it because it was quirky and musical at the same time... and had a cool groove too

Time permitting I'll see about making a track for the next one of these - great to see this stuff happening here chaps

I've cast my vote (not for my own of course, that wouldn't seem fair!). It was tough as there's such diversity in here. Can't wait for future comps!

[Steve G]

Firstly big respect to all who submitted!!

I played all the tracks while looking at the picture and went with what felt right for what I was seeing. I realise that's somewhat subjective, but so is creating from the image...anyways vote cast.

[Blademan_98]

I too will enter the next one.

All of the entries are good, the bar is set very high!

I did start a track for this one but I didn't finish it

[KiOgon]

I must admit - after Nige's poke I've had a fair listen to them all & what an inventive lot you are

I saw the photo first of course, which set a preconceived sound trail in my head, so right or wrong I think I've voted for the soundtrack that came closest to my mind set.

Very good

[bartelby]

Well, that was bloody tough to choose just one!!
I actually like all of them, can I vote for all of them?

[charic]

You can vote for none of them which is the same... but then... you wont have voted

You can't do that!

[flyfisher]

Wow!

I didn't think I'd have the time or patience to listen to all the entries but I got sucked into it and listened to all of them at least twice.

Great stuff indeed and thanks to everyone who composed an entry.

[charic]

Ok that's it folks!

And the winner is....

....

[b]Skol303!!![/b]

Well done and well deserved.


As soon as Skol gets back to me with next months picture I'll start the next thread!

[jaydentaku]

oh bugger. I voted too late.

[Skol303]

Wow! I'm stunned

Thanks to everyone who voted. I really enjoyed this challenge and it's given me the confidence to try new things with my music (not least singing!), which can only be a good thing.

Cheers to Charic and everyone who took part. And to Silddx and Bluejay for the last minute plugging. And... yeah I'll stop now.

This month's photo is up:

Not sure if it's everyone's cup of tea, but I'm hoping it offers a change of pace from September's more serene image.

Cheers y'all

[xgsjx]

Well done Skol, a worthy win against a load of excellent entries!

I'm the only one who didn't get a vote.
That means I need to put more of an effort in for this month!

[arsenic]

Well done Skol. A very worthy win.

[xilddx]

Skol, congratulations!
