ad.mixx Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Nothing crazy really - I have a few oddball ethnic instruments: Didgeridoo, Pan flute, Rababa, and Egyptian Tabla. I'm with amphibious, those are actually really cool instruments. Especially the pan flute fand rababa : D Oh and: I vote...for myself. Brandon's cheating :\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rexy Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Nah, I counted that as a vote for Gario. But if he is still insisting that he had no part in Greg's track, I can't tell what he is thinking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjamin Briggs Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Oh My God What Part Of Don't Post Reviews In Votes Does No One Understand I'm not really that outraged about it, but come on someone had to say something. that's why we have a thread and it's a pain in the ass to figure out who you voted for.

Rexy Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 I do understand it by the figuring out who to vote for part, though they still bolded their choices. Granted, I may have gone by the excess word count myself, but I still had something to say and wanted to stick by it. Didn't think that others would be in a similar boat o_O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Strader Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 It's funny that most Gario votes if not all are accompanied by a thoughtful set of words and reasoning behind the votes (I wouldn't go as far as to call them a review, that's a slap in the face to reviews ) and the votes for amphibious are just "amphibious" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucavi00 Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 If it's more than 5 words then it's a review. Get that shizz out of here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Jobson Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Yeah I understand what Ben is saying - most times I do just say the person's name, but this time wanted to say a little extra as it was the last round (as I enjoyed reading them myself during the rounds I was in), but in no way would I call it a review - still I made sure to bold and color the remixer's name I was voting for, but I still understand Ben's thoughts on how it's the principle of it - just put the remixers name you vote for, anything else to say there's a thread for it. Live and learn, will do so next time. And Brandon, the fact that Gario has some nice thoughtful words for his votes as opposed to just "Amphibious" are because, well, them fellers (or ladies) were just following the rules and putting the name. Actually, sometimes I really wanted to a say a little something when voting, but ended up just putting the persons name instead, but didn't have time to go back to the thread and write more of a review, or didn't feel like making a quick thread post just to say "tough choice... really close battle, but I'm going with," so I think that's another reason why some people like saying stuff when they vote. As long as people aren't silly and make sure to put the voters name on a separate line and bold it, I don't really see the harm. If it's more than 5 words then it's a review. Get that shizz out of here. So "Tough choice, I'm voting for remixer 1" counts as a review? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucavi00 Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 So "Tough choice, I'm voting for remixer 1" counts as a review? Yes, I'd also yell at the fool who puts it like that seeing as how neither remixer is numbered 1 or 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucavi00 Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 This is not a review. Of course not, it's a statement. Also, if you did post a review here, this is the proper place to do it. It was an example. I recommend you go back and redo your example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiGi Valentine Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 While i can respect Gario's decision to bring along a team of people to the final battle i just felt Amph's was cleaner and held it's direction more. To me, Gario's just had too much going on in there and sometimes less is more, ya know? Either way, a good final round from the pair of you. May the best remix win.

Gario Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Amphibious' track is better balanced and better produced than my mix. My mix has a playful vibe to it, a more interesting arrangement (imho), a collaboration with the other mixers that I've had the pleasure of competing with before (even if it was just to help me get samples, most of them did help me in one way or another), and it pulls a Beethoven's 9th by mixing motives from the previous tracks (often directly). Mine sounds impressive on paper, but Amph's track really is considerably better mixed and balanced than mine. It's a pretty fair trade-off - if he wins then it'll be well deserved. I didn't take the final round sitting down myself, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuberz McGee Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Lucavi. I'm not one to throw any form of anger anywhere, but shut the fuck up. Beth's track was excellent, and even better, she did it out of the goodness of her heart. Don't be a dick, I've put up with your remarks this whole competition because I'm a pushover, but for the love of god, stop being a jackass. xoxo Love Tuberz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
