STIL comment"I used to love playing this arcade machine when we had got it at the offices at Elite, those Easter Island type stone heads that flew towards you were especially effective. The original in game tune had got a memorable melody so I decided to stick to it. The middle section of my version may be original though, the tune plays a little faster than on the arcade machine. This was due to the fact that my routine didn't contain a fractional timer at that point. Speeds were determined by the shortest note length which could be 1,2,3 or 4 etc. The speed differences were thus 100%, 50,33% etc. with no in between values. The rest of the tunes in the set are original compositions I think, maybe tune 2 was close to the arcade version." (MC)

LaLa:
Beautiful singing voice, it's captivating. The rest is pretty good, too.
lakanman:
A bit short. This is a good start 😃
NecroPolo:
Not bad. It doesn't go anywhere but picked up a nice slice of time, for sure.
AcidBlock:
Very nice. Like the sounds although instruments could use some variation. Also could use some interesting twists and more filled up drum pattern. Love the choir, sounds very pure and beautiful. As said before, tad too short and feels a bit rushed up.
