• The remix arranges both source tunes in an interesting and identifiable way into one cohesive piece of music.
• The remix is well-produced within the conventions of the genre.
• The remix is enjoyable to listen to.

Stream the remixes via Soundcloud or Download the Round 1 Remix Pack (MP3).

Won't say much here, considering the circumstances and can give in-depth feedback on each track if people would like me to (on here or Discord)...

...However, I wish both teams great luck, and Team Whips--lots of love and I'm cheering over here with pom-poms, for real. Unconditional support all around. :) *hugs*

Also...Dracula Flow. ♡ *kiss*

Strong tracks from both teams! Love to hear it, just like from GSM 1 :D

I find it interesting that both teams’ tracks are about the same length for each mash up as well. Twenty minutes of good listening altogether ❤️
