Congrats Nate, you totally deserved to win :P. I didn't put much time into my piece and I didn't really deserve the next round over you. Now that your up against xKore, I wish you the best of luck :)

Like really, the best of luck :o

New drum and bass song

@ SBB's song: I'm a sucker for new age music so once I heard the opening I had to hear the rest. If you know anything about new age it's not as original as, it seems, others think but I still enjoyed it.

note that I intentionally did not post this in a review of the song because it's not review material.

idk what the song has to do with new age other than "the title contains the word meditation and meditation has connections to new age", I thought was ripping off chillout and lounge music

Ok here's why I nailed some of yous on otherwise superb tracks. Many people don't have speakers capable of cranking out good base. I'm sure your tracks sound great on your excellent moniors / speakers, but even as neutral and flat as they are, they produce sounds your average mini-combo-all-in-one system won't. This was a problem that I heard especially on the dancy electronic songs. They sounded awesome on my home theatre system and my production monitors, but both my Sony minisystem and my Panasonic mini system sounded like they were about to get the base farts (you know, where the speaker sounds like it's about to rasberry a fatality?) And I didn't have that "XBASS" crap turned on when I played the contest tracks flat through them. The stock speakers in my car were happy when I kept the volume down, but the basebeats were unfortunately too much for them to handle. Keep in mind the average music listener doesn't have a pro system and dynamat lining up his ride :P. I may have given low 6s or 7s where the other judges gave 8s or 9s. I thought that I would explain some of my though process. Although I have an appreciation for dancey electronic songs, I'm not as experienced as the other judges in judging their artistic values. So I have to sometimes rely on technical issues to help me with deciding the sway. It was hard for me especially because all of them were so close in skill and talent that I had to pounce on issues. And please note that I pounced on all genres. I don't hate "U-N-C-E". I am just learning that's all. Plus I don't think it makes me unqualified to judge this type of electronic music. I think it just adds a different perspective that's all. Anyways, here's the waveform sample... I hope I made some sense. It's 1:00 when I wrote this :P

Yeah um I recognize the waveform because I saw it when I WAS CREATING IT

maybe not creating but at least working with it.

The shape of the waveform doesn't really matter though. What looks like a block of sound can be nice and snappy, and a song that seems to have loud transients and dynamics might sound compressed as hell

Yeah, you bet I will. I still haven't been able to fix my laptop, so i may have to resort to......other means.......meaning using Garageband on my Mom's mac. Hopefully it won't come to that......hopefully. If so, it will be an interesting test.

Good like Spik, hopefully I won't drop out on you as well ;P

Don't worry, I managed to do a work around- I just switched the hard drive with another computer. Now I'm ready to go I hope, just have to play with it for a bit to make sure everything is working.

xKore vs. dj-Nate

This is absolutely perfect. It is almost impossible to have any form of writers block with this determination/mindset. I love the feel of this competition. Best one I've participated in, bar none.

It isn't true dubstep, but it's my own thing, like you said. I certainly wouldn't still be working on it if i didn't think the song stood a chance. I think this battle will be epic, and I can't wait to hear xKore's submission. Overall, I'm just pretty fucking excited about the whole thing.

I'd like to see it too, man. His stuff is getting better and better and it scares me for my future (if he and me have ones).

Related note: I HAVE NO GENERAL IDEA YET.
