That it? Looks like Binnie and Malcos judged this one two years ago. Artist is the same.

Can either of you two confirm that it's the same one? Binnie's description seems to fit pretty solidly.

Either way, I vote NO, for the reasons Binnie stated in the vote for the last one.

Probably the same track based off of Binnie's description. I miss that guy. He smelled like curry.

But yeah, this is crud. Either way, totally cutting and pasting Shariq's last sentence, I vote NO, for the reasons Binnie stated in the vote for the last one.

Simplistic arrangement, and everything is drowning in the reverb. The slapback is particularly annoying for this kind of genre. Beats are pretty simplistic also.

There's actually some fun to be had listening to this, but again that's mostly due to the original. I would go back to the drawing board on this one. Consider your concept, and execution. Work on the composition some more, and also try using less reverb. For the synths you should stick to short delays.

Another thing to consider is this mix is overly long and repetitive. Where's the meat? This sounds like something the panel got 2-3 years ago. Better luck next time.

NO

Really manages to pull off that "mix played in a cave" feel (which by the way, isn't a good thing), and is far too simplistic to pass. Cut down on the reverb and work on incorporating more ideas into the music.
