Souperion

I'd buy ya both a pizza for such an enlightening dialogue. I'm sorry that things were a little rough for ya this round, Vodou Queen, but stick with it. I remember the first time I brought a track to the workshop, almost 3 years ago. It was a hunkajunk made with the free website soundtrap, and I asked for an evaluator's review. At the time, it was my favorite homemade mix, but I can't even listen to it anymore without getting hypertension. Thankfully, Timaeus222 was able to gently shatter my paradigm at the time. My point is that music is a (sometimes painful) growing experience. I don't think your preferred genre and style are an issue here. Keep mixing and listening to composers who do the stuff you like, bits and pieces of improvement will come, and the hobby/career will become more rewarding. 
This may seem a bit conceited, coming from a goob who just took 1st, but I think we all are familiar with compositional frustration.
Also, I am massively impressed with your accomplishment in transcribing the piece under such conditions.

Loved all the pieces here, it was a treat to hear so many Metroid mixes in one voting-sitting. Flattered and astounded at a win. If I gotta pick December's source, I'd better go find some nice wintery toon, eh?
I prefer chocolate chip XD. You really had me reeling on that thing. I was going through Metroid OSTs, racking my brain.
See you all next mission?

Definitely a well-earned victory.  Congrats dude!  Yup, something wintery.  See you next mission.

See you next mission, boss.  Also...NickC's entry sounded mostly fine on my Sony Headphones, but after voting, I went onto my Laptop with my Maxwell headphones and got a much muddier picture....So it was probably a very controversial vote to put in #1...Maybe I'm worrying too much.  Just thought I'd put that caveat out there in case people had the 'Maxwell' experience when placing their vote, as it were.  Plus, I DID say that medleys are fine this round.

A big GJ to those who won; congrats to everyone who participated.
Still open for more in-depth critique if anyone wants it.
Sorry for the late / small response. A bit in the perplexed range today, lol.

Congrats dudes! Awesome turnout this month!
For those who want the answer to my riddle.
Here it is!
NickC got it partially right, so he gets 1/2 a cookie. 
Souperion was bang on the money, he get's a full cookie.
As for the rest who tried, commiserations, hopefully you had a little fun.
And yes APZX that is the source ran through Paul's Sound Stretch, for only 7 minutes.
Well done to the winner by the way!

Ok this source is soo good, i think i might end up with a pretty insane (And maybe long) entrant. Stay tuned for that lol.

Yeah good job dudes, some great entrants to be had!

Rundas flamethrowing Malkovich will never be not awesome.

Well, then this little gem I found a while back oughta help you out:
Votes in. Nice work, all of ya'll.

Oh boy.  I'm dreading voting.  2X Voting Power...2X the responsibility.  Someone is gonna be elated.  Someone is gonna be feeling down.  My feedback is kinda shit, but I will do my best...just gotta put myself in a productive mindset.  Like walking a tight-rope over Adam's Control Room, who is Not Authorizing me to vote.  X_X

My votes are in. Ya know, I was not expecting such an eclectic collection of tracks. It will be interesting to see how the voting turns out on this one.

It was fun to take part in this round with some (exactly 2) other great pieces. These compos are an excellent way to try new things in ones' remixing life, so thanks to Bundeslang for hosting the PRC.

Hype hype hype. I can't wait for the voting to be done so I can start verbalizing my obsessing over all these songs. Also, I find it coincidentally great that both Rundas and Gandrayda got mixes. Makes me wish I did Ghor's, so we could cover all the hunters.

Well, without commenting on that possibility, I haven't been able to find a midi of that Ghor's battle.

Welcome to the Voting Stage!
There are 6 entries this round. There is 2 Bonus entry(s) this round There IS a voter bonus this round! HoboKa have a vote worth 2x. Muahahah When Voting, please don't be inflexible when considering the conservative approach. Don't vote for Bonus entries please.  Participants may not vote for themselves.   Vote ends on PINGAS day.  (I accidentally edited this one instead of copy/pasting to next round LOL)
 

I hear ya. The game had good sounds, especially for the DS, methinks. Thanks for the info on Unity though. I'm hesitant to try and make money outta this hobby, but I appreciate the ideas. 

There's been an influx of cool handheld games, like R H...I got burnt out trying to keep up with 'em though.  Handheld JRPGs just lose my attention too quick, sadly.  Emulating them might work...but I seem to prioritize metroidvania games over JRPGs these days.  Meh.  Maybe I'll check out R H's OST  
BTW, I just found out today that Unity doesn't do payouts until you hit $100 (couldn't tell if that is a recent policy update...).  So "a few bucks" is probably a stupid idea...maybe this is designed to reduce the Low Value Low-Ballers who're devaluating the market too much...
That said, I think you've got the potential to make a pretty sick Audio Asset Package, if you don't like commission work.  That's what I'm doing hehe.  That's why you don't hear many originals from me these days.  Very hush-hush.
