To avoid @rghvdberg complains about voting with decimals, I used only integers this time. :lol:

Voting was hard as always and it is mostly based on my personal taste.
Pulsing Pulp/@y6nH 's track would be my favorite, if it would have been a fully fledged song!

Code: Select all

+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| Artist            | Track              | Score |
+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| "King"LoFy        | HEAVY BIRTHDAY     |   4   | Metal + super cool "electronics" versus "metal lead guitar" battle in second half. Those angry sweeps!
+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| SirProko          | Doggo-Birthday     |   3   | Well done fellow first time contestant :) Nice harmony, which takes out much of the "majorness" of the melody
+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| LAM               | For Fun And Profit |   3   | Dark solid beats but I feel the contrast to the happy melody as too pronounced
+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| BSG75             | Dark Bright Stange |   x   |
+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| y6Nh              | Happy Birthday LMC |   4   | Brilliant idea to let the least cheesiest notes of the melody fade into an polyrythmical(? 4:3 ?) arpeggio! I'd like to hear this as a full song.
+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| Merlyn            | BirthdayCheeseCake |   5   | WOW, such craftsmanship and artistry
+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| Sahaathyva        | Happy LMDay !      |   4   | Laid back Sahaathyva vibes spotted ;) That bass!

Well done everyone! I like the fact that all the tracks are different, showing that free software can be used to produce any kind of music.

Code: Select all

+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| Artist            | Track              | Score |
+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| "King"LoFy        | HEAVY BIRTHDAY     |   5   | A great beefy guitar sound well played and good, clear production.
+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| SirProko          | Doggo-Birthday     |   4   | I like the sounds in this. Some of the sounds e.g at 0:50 sound like they're coming to pieces, in a good way.
+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| LAM               | For Fun And Profit |   4   | Well done making the 3/4 melody work in 4/4.
+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| BSG75             | Dark Bright Stange |   4   | A nice mix of programmed and played. Good flanger at 1:00.
+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| y6Nh              | Happy Birthday LMC |   3   | Interesting ideas. It would have been good to hear where you were going with this.
+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| Sahaathyva        | Happy LMDay !      |   3   | Good dub feel and bassline.

Hello fellow FLOSSicians, here are my votes:

Code: Select all

+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| Artist            | Track              | Score |
+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| "King"LoFy        | HEAVY BIRTHDAY     |  UwU  | 
+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| SirProko          | Doggo-Birthday     |   3   | Love the sidechaining and the dubstep sprinkles
+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| LAM               | For Fun And Profit |   4   | Classic retro sound, nice and clean mix, cool effects, love the bass
+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| BSG75             | Dark Bright Stange |   3   | Nice contrasting sounds, ePiano and Acid sounds. It seems like you quoted various LMCs :)
+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| y6Nh              | Happy Birthday LMC |   5   | This seems like a jingle for a weird birthday TV show, as always it's got a very professional feel.
+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| Merlyn            | BirthdayCheeseCake |   5   | Feels like sitting in a smoky jazz club, I absolutely adore the guitar (duh!)
+-------------------+--------------------+-------+
| Sahaathyva        | Happy LMDay !      |   4   | Was disappointed at first (no dub), then pleased (dub!)

Yes, thx for noticing :D
I even considered the famous "I want to beatbox a bit" sample.

And thx @LAM for the MEGAMIX. Sounds great 8)
I guess everyone stayed in C an 120 bpm (at start and end), but not everyone (e.g. me, sry) stayed in 3/4?

I went 4/4 and changed the timing of the notes for that. :lol:
