It's in the cello/trombone, then the second phrase is in horns and violin. I used it as counterline rather than as the melody, but it is in there note for note. Hope that works for you!

Hi guys! It's been a while, but I finaly finished my submition!!

Here it is: Part 1
Part 2

The reason why my submition is in two parts is because the converter I'm using can only convert 1 minute at a time. It also changed the sounds completly, making it better at certain places and worst at other places.

For Nathan: Wich version are you going to evaluate?

OK, I managed to finish in time. I haven't come up with a title, so give it a listen, and give me some suggestions.

As a bonus, I even wrote out a full score for it, although it's by no means a difficult piece.

In response to a question added in my email: No, I do not plan to use the winning entry for any project whatsoever.

Also, just FYI. I won't even start doing any judging till after August 23rd, as I'm going to Blizzcon.

Hopefully I'll get a trance/dance version in before due date. Writing for the first time in 2 months takes a lot out of you.

This should be a more or less finished version, probably less.
But none the less - I hope you could listen, enjoy - and perhaps even add a comment :)

Well shit. Looks like I won't be finishing mine in time. Computer suddenly decided my RAM was a chew toy and now I can't get any songs done. >:c

One day I may finish it and upload it. In which a maximum of 5 people will listen to it and not rate or comment. Woohoo.

Just finished mine and sent it in :)

Felt like going for a slightly different style. I really need to upgrade to a new program so I can instruments that don't sounds like crap :\

Tell me what you guys think :D

Yep, sorry I didn't CUT OFF the date like I wanted to.

I'm not accepting any entries from this point on. Though according to my email, it seems all of them were in by the 17th just fine.

The judging system will be fair, I promise that. It will only give minor extra points to those that engineered weel. Since I have a lot of entries that were done just in a scoring program, I had to make that a small factor.
