FuNkShUi Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 I've voted. Some great entries again. Some even cooler effects Nice work Quote
the boy Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 voted.... a lot of the tunes took a similar theme so it was difficult to choose. I went for the three i liked most in the end. Not a bad entry among them though. Quote
TorturedSaints Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 I wanted to vote for everybody. The standard is really high this month, and I found it really difficult to choose 3. I really liked the way everybody took inspiration from the picture and chose different world viewpoints. They were all pretty dystopian though! That says to me that it was a very good choice of picture Rikki. For anybody just passing through this thread and wondering whether to bother listening to the entries, I would strongly recommend it, there's a lot to like here. Quote
lurksalot Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 Voted I could stick a pin in them to choose to be honest , great stuff , some incredibly professional sounding tracks in there , outstanding . Quote
Skol303 Posted May 28, 2016 Author Posted May 28, 2016 About to listen and vote this weekend... hopefully sat in the sun, supping a cold one Quote

I just voted - some really good stuff here, it was hard to narrow it down to 3. Quote
Mornats Posted May 28, 2016 Posted May 28, 2016 I'm going through them all now and I've had to change my system for picking my top three. Usually I write them all down and put a no/maybe/definitely next to each one. I'll vote for all definitely's then will re-play all of the maybe's to get to three. This time I've had to mark them all out of 10 otherwise there'd be too many definitely's and the rest would be maybe's Quote
lurksalot Posted May 29, 2016 Posted May 29, 2016 I do marks out of 10 as well but then I had to start using half marks to split them Quote
fingers211 Posted May 29, 2016 Posted May 29, 2016 [quote name='lurksalot' timestamp='1464504212' post='3059834'] I do marks out of 10 as well but then I had to start using half marks to split them [/quote] Snap...and for the last 3 months I've not looked at voting until after I've voted myself .... Nige Quote
fingers211 Posted May 29, 2016 Posted May 29, 2016 That's the hardest bunch to split this year..excellent work everyone. Nige Ha! just noticed I've increased his lead...booo !!!! Quote
Leonard Smalls Posted May 30, 2016 Posted May 30, 2016 Eek! My one and only vote has been stolen! It's a fix I tell ya! Quote
Rikki1984 Posted May 30, 2016 Posted May 30, 2016 That's very odd - i voted for you. All my votes have gone - I don't know how, I haven't been in this thread for ages. I'll revote now! Quote
Rikki1984 Posted May 30, 2016 Posted May 30, 2016 [quote name='Leonard Smalls' timestamp='1464631114' post='3060995'] Eek! My one and only vote has been stolen! It's a fix I tell ya! [/quote] You've got your vote back!☺ Quote
Leonard Smalls Posted May 30, 2016 Posted May 30, 2016 Hurrah! Another 6 votes and I'll be home and dry... Quote
xgsjx Posted May 30, 2016 Posted May 30, 2016 I've just spent the past wee while going through all the tracks & if someone wants to make an awesome sic-fi movie, then this is the entire soundtrack! I've got a job trying to choose just 3. Quote

xgsjx Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 Well done Monrats. Great track. Stellar work from all the entries. Quote
fingers211 Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 (edited) Super track Mornats...a worthy winner ! Crackin' bunch of entries .... Nige Just to say I'm also chuffed with my 2nd 2nd..... Edited June 1, 2016 by fingers211 Quote
Leonard Smalls Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 Excellently done! And please make sure that the next picture is funky!!! Quote
Mornats Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 (edited) Wow thanks everyone, I'm chuffed to bits with my first ever win especially with the current bunch of entries. As I said earlier I had to change my method for picking one as I could have easily voted for them all. The Sound Dust Ghost Piano was a brilliant vst to work with and set the scene for my track. The image was spot-on inspirational too. I'll go hunting for a picture when I get back from work. I may use one of my own photos... Thanks again guys! Edited June 1, 2016 by Mornats Quote
