Entry: Static Beauty & Distorted Grace (7:04)
Artist: Shane Miller
Comments: I think this is one of my best works. Hope you like it. But I'm currently making a new one, and may submit that if I finish it in time for the deadline.

Entry: Myth Mixer 2.5 ~ A Ray of Hope (4:53)
Artist: DJ Riott
Website: http://www.acidplanet.com/dj_riott
Comments: This is the second version of Myth Mixer 2.0 ~ Lost in the Mists. When one is lost, a Ray of Hope will always guide you. The main body was thought of and arranged while on various cold medicines. Did it have an impact on the song? I don't know. Waiting almost a year later to come back and tweak it out after my DJ skills had improved, its been a long enjoyable ride. I used Acid Pro 4.0, but did not drag and drop loops. Chopping up sounds, and altering them with Track FX is the way to go. Fairly popular on the Acid Planet Bill Board Charts (32nd place out of 12,000), this song seemed like a suitable choice to submit into a contest!! Please enjoy the smooth and pumped up mixture of piano, violins, synths, and snare!

Entry: Obsession (6:42)
Artist: Dee
Website: http://www.dee.moo.no
Comments: This is one of my best tracks so far i think, made it a 10/10 on Acidplanet.com and a 6.0/6.0 on a Norwegian "promotion" site!!!. I wanna thank the person who actually inspired me to do this track, Claude, an italian guy from Screen Recordings (Thanks a bunch!). Oh and btw, for all you listeners out there, the good stuff comes at 2:35 ;). The track is a bit repetitive until that point :P Thanks for listening and may the best track win :)

Entry: Soaring (4:42)
Artist: k-wix
Website: http://k-wix.no-ip.com
Comments: Its a 'trance' remix of the classic hit 'Dam Dariram' ... I should forewarn - the song is a bit dated, but given the current state of my musical EQ, i dont have the time/power to come up with something new right now - besides.. i love this mix quite a bit. The bass is a bit drab - but give it time - at the 2nd half of the song things change tremendously.

Entry: Ecco 2: Fury of Medusa (3:10)
Artist: Sadorf
Comments: This song was inspired by Rayza over at Overclocked Remix and his Sonic the HedgeHog Euroclub 95 mix. After talking with a friend of mine we both kind of realized that there really isnt THAT much to it. Soo i figured i would try to mimic it's style with a song I am VERY familiar with. My original remix of this song titled "Medusa Mix" can be found over at www.ocremix.org. That song was my first remix to actually get me somewhere, so using a different style i have mixed it here for the last time. Lots of work went into this song to make it sound the way it does, and i know it has its flaws, but its as far as i want to go with it for now. Soo thats about it i think, ENJOY! (Updated 10/25)

Entry: elektromagnetiks (3:43)
Artist: analoq
Website: http://apm.m2pc.com
Comments:it's been a while since i've written any original music, so when i heard about this contest it looked like a fun excuse to make some. i have here is some Kraftwerk-inspired techno-pop with completely free form lyrics. i did everything within 3 days, starting with a groove i made from some new drum samples, then layering some synth parts using the free Triangle2 VSTi. on the 2nd day i recorded and mixed the vocals. and on the 3rd day i redubbed all the synth parts using analog gear, mastered, encoded and submitted. this kind of electro may not be everyone's cup of tea, but i hope it will be enjoyed.

Entry: Trip (4:34)
Artist: DJ Cheeks
Comments: Trip hop. Any questions? conqubine@aol.com. Later- Cheeks.

Entry: War Criminal (John Kerry) (3:53)
Artist: G-Dub, lyrics by G-Dub and Reese Regino
Comments:Description - This is a song dissing John Kerry. If you doubt any of the song lyrics, please read the book "Unfit for Command" by John O'Neil and visit some websites on the internet (and read the entire sites and view the content, please), namely: www.wintersoldier.com or www.stolenhonor.com There are others, but you may have to search for them. In any case, if you are hardcore liberal or democrat you should not listen to this song at all. This song contains many explicit lyrics, as well as psychological nudity. This song is not for everyone, especially children (or those that regularly act like children). Nearly all the lyrics were written by Reese (a good friend of mine from high school); I wrote the chorus (hench, more cursing in the chorus than in the rest of the song), recorded, and produced the song.
