   * Nice votepack, if not a bit small. i chose this one because i thought
     it was a good song. he obviously knows how to track.. everything
     fit..leads, rhythm, background bits..the vox also added that
     "something" (whatever that may be :)

   * It's easy to listen to it. Nice synth, I felt a little surrounded. Too
     loud drums though, don't like those technosounding bompa-bompa.
   * I liked as-teap.it the best cause it was basically worth listening to
     in this votepack. The rest where nice and all, but this just had
     better melody and composition.
   * I think the main reason i voted this track 1st was because it wasn't
     as repetetive as the others. most of the tracks in the vote pack were
     really just compo tunes(mine included). this was one of the few tracks
     that really impressed me. the use of vocal samples in this was
     appropriate, and added feeling to it(although i have NO idea what they
     say). i was also impressed by the use of panning and effects. the
     surround sound and panbrellos added alot of depth.
   * Well this was a small gc. I don't think there where any stand out
     tunes this time. However in a pinch I'll go with arghs tune

   * I think this song is the best because it's the only one with a really
     feeling and the author's put in a lot of work with it too

file:  ae-14.it

   * Another awful compo. ae-14 was pick of the bunch. Glass was too quiet.
     Husanaks was a bit too thrown together. Ludolf was a rewrite(?)

   * Even this music was a remix of an 20dcompo music, I think it was good
     to listen it, the best melody and structure, the best music :)

file:  hus-ldp.it

   * it was the only song that showed even a rudimentary knowledge of
     tracking. but the drums were it's weakest point

   * There are better trackers out there than st3.. why not use them?
     besides that, the little odd nuances in the song threw it off (use of
     arpeggio, vibrato, and that break about 3/4 thru).. and, imo,some of
     the notes didnt work too well together.
   * All your instruments isn't tuned to each other. That made your song
     really falsh to hear
   * look, the easiest way to do chips so that they're in tune is to
     tune all the samples you're about to chipify into 8363 and loop
     them like this:
     sample #1: length = 16 (loop 0-16)
     sample #2: length = 32 (loop 0-32)
     sample #3: length = 64 (loop 0-64)
     sample #4: length = 128 (loop 0-128)
     sample #5: length = 256 (loop 0-256)

     at least then you can be quite sure that sample 4 is in tune
     with the other 4 samples and so on.

   * Well, it's not very melodic. The samples doesn't fit into eachother,
     so the song sounds false on a few places. I think Unier should do a
     tune as good as he can, leave it for two weeks and then listen to it.
     Then he'll probably know how to improve it.
   * Last was un_gc14 because the piano was completely out of tune with the
     rest of the track
   * The instruments were out of tune :(

file: glass.it

   * I voted this one last because it was almost entirely inaudible. the
     volume didnt increase until the last few patterns. i played around
     with the track alittle, and listened to the patterns. it was a pretty
     good track, but i shouldn't have to take it apart in order to hear it.
