1. Yannis - ybmrtt28. it 6.650 - ****
* one word: ROCK.
* Stunning - parts sound almost lizardkingish... drums fit song very we
ll... transitions were perfect - excellent tune by two excellent trac
kers ... but a fadeout ending?? *yuk* :P
* Nice average groovey tune. Bit short, the transposition ending was a
copout, as it always is.
* Hey! that's good. Wish, I could do this kinda artwork, too ;-)
* I expected more from you two.
* Now THIS is stylish! Great chords, idea and all.
* Nice chord progression, smooth melody, you've done a good tune!
* Technically good... like the intro. After order 7 the chords spoil it
tho - they really fit with the rest of the piece. Catchy.
* radical stuff !
* WOW!! The best song at this compo!! Really groovy beat, nice trumpet,
nice "whisteling", the melody stays in your mind after pressing F8!
(Why did you use 36 channels, I activated the "muted".My 486DX4-100Mhz
had problems playing this GIANT through my SB16...my GUS even sucked!)
...I'll try something equal...maybe next time...
* HeH...What can i say.. this was the best song in TT28.. apart from
mine.. =) Amazing tune.. Brilliant percussion.. cute effects, nice
'whistling pixie' to help... Excellent ! This one got a 'YEAH!'
reaction from me..
* The perfect song...
Samples are good corrected...
Realy fine...
* When I heard that YB + MR were doing a co-op I thought to myself, shit
I`m in trouble. Then I heard the tune, there was nothing amazing about
it. I expected more from 2 of the scenes leading musicians.
* Somehow, the two of you in a co-op seems to sound less appealing than
either one of you alone. Kinda like both of you takes away from the
other. It's a great tune, I just think if EITHER MickRip OR YanniS
did this alone, it could have been better. Pity. *shrug*
2. Ballistique - tb-widln. it 6.100 - ***+
* for some strange reason, i have no interest in a) your wanking habits
or b) your ex-wife's anatomy. i must need some of your beer.
* Too repetative.. but progresses well and sounds full and developed. A
lthough repetative, the chords sound good - kept expecting the drums t
o pick up . . but no.. hrm....
* I _have_ heard that intro chord-progression before. Was it Enya? Anywa
y, nice mixing, but far too repetitive, and using the same patterns mu
ltiple times etc.
* What do i like most?
Well, tha professional panning fx.
* Amazing how 20+ channels can still sound so empty. I suppose it
would sound worse if some werent there, but I don't really feel
inclined to experiment. The song isnt unlistenable, but I cant
actively listen to it. Ambient I guess.
* Lacks greatness. Natural Born Mediocre.
* Technically good but I'm not sure those chords fit together too well.
I found myself having to mute the rez samples pretty soon too. Above a
verage all the same.
* no inspiration ???
* Mmh...this song made me sad...not only the soft melody, but the fact
that you're talking to your computer and the beers that had to die for
this really nice "kind'a background"-tune. GOOD WORK! Send it to some
diskmag-makers...it would be nice as a "while-reading"-tune!
* You might have done it in a rush but it turned out quite nice..
Nice Chords and a nice Lead make this a good song
* i would've given you a 9 if you had dropped the lead and did this on o
nly one can of beer
* And another good tune...
sample correction good...
nice melody...
This is on of the three best songs...
* Strange ;) I like tho.
* Bal, Bal, Bal! You gotta quit drinking in mid-track dude, you'll ruin
our reputation. :D
3. Ben-Jam - fsol . it 5.950 - ***+
* nice. but, um, don't hold your breath waiting for .it support in dmp
:)
* Nice tune. Great drum track. Really nice leads with well placed matc
hing chords. Bass was cool. Rezs were a bit wierd in a funk-ish tune
though ;) Still a good song though
* On the whole not that bad. Could use better mixing.
* HELP! How could one decide, when there's so much pretty stuff...
Good thing, groovy, nice. Super tune.
* Nice drums, nice sounding bass line. Good chords, but there was an
annoying hanging one near the end. Some excellent sax patterns, but
for the most part mediocre. Rez is too dominant in second part. Drum
fills after second part cost you a point :P Ending did not work well.
* Groovy bassline! Stylish. Clean.
* A very nice tune. The drums, the bass and chords are very well done wi
th nice variations and touches. My only criticism is that at times the
melody is a little strained. I'll keep an eye out for your stuff in t
he future, keep it up!
* funky base and u got much out of that saxsample, cool p17....i voted !
some good chords and tunes....i really like the first patterns !
* This was one of the better songs... At least it was in tune... unlike
most of them... Well Done..
* The Tune is good, it has a good Melody, nice panning, good using
of the Channels...
Not so boring like other tunes without a good "story"...
The Intstruments are corrected very good...
The Tune fits to the Samples...
* Wow.. a tune that's got tuned samples, a clear melody and some variati
on! Well done!
* I dig this. =)
4. Liam The Lemming - tb-joy . it 5.950 - ***+
* faded chord pads. flute. piano. mellow percussion. la, la, la. th
is isn't as good as most of your other tunes simply because it's not i
nnovative at all. (and that damn sawsynth buzzing set my teeth on edg
e. *grrrr*)
* Cool song. Echoed piano sounded very good. Clavi-like rezs sounded w
ierd. Heavy chordage :) never the less it is very nice
* Weepy tune, didn't like the chord progression much. Equalise the sampl
e mixing relative to pitch more.
* It's good. But the hurry it has been made in can be recognized ;)
* Hey hey hey, almost like Wastelands II, back in the good old days,
eh Lemm?
* GAWD the chords were ordinary. The fill was ugly.
Nice solo. A tad boring.
* Cool tune, great sax lead, good rhythm, i like it.
* Excellent. I could listen over and over again. Congrats, Liam, you've
improved a lot. Two niggles: the instrument you made out of dune's bd
doesn't fit and what happened to the ending? :) Aside from this, you c
ould have a winner here...
* I know...it's hard, but this song would be better if it had had a
louder melody, bit more flute and less strings...all in one a nice and
worth listening tune...and btw: wonderfull chords in the beginning...
...before getting too much...
* I didn't really like the beginning of this one too much... but after
the first 10 seconds it transformed into a bewteefull song.. Nice..
* The Song is ok, but a little bit heavy...
Good sample correction...
The Volumen of the melody is too low...
Too much instruments at one time...
It's realy screaming...
But ok...
* Woo .. some nice chord progressions here.. Still muddy in some places
tho...
* Sort your life Lemming. This was almost a cracking tune, ba the vol
settings.
5. Screamager - sc-heart. xm 5.550 - ***+
* just great!
* Soothing tune. Nothing seriously wrong with it. Lead was nice. And
progression was very good.
* Nice sounding prince-rescues-princess music, completely ruined by an o
ut-of-pitch sampleset.
* That aint half bad. Nosirree. Chords aint half bad, lead aint half
bad. Half bad-repeteteive, half bad-ending. Axl axl axl. Voting
program is half bad. I liked text files.
* George Michael eat your heart out.
(don't know if that's positive or negative..)
* nice tune and good balance, good chords
* REALLY A NICE TUNE! To say it in a few words: nice chords, NICE melody
, nice drums, nice bass, NIVE EVERYTHING! BUT!! You should be careful
with the sample-tuning...they sound a bit detuned...only a bit...
* Nice melodic one here.. I love the lead instrument and how you
combined the instruments... Jolly Good... WooP tO YoU
* It's a nice song...
Good melody...
Good using of the samples...
Sample correction is ok, but it's not perfect...
This causes a little bit unharmonic in this song...
But a good song...
* Sheet.... Don't use piano samples when they're that bad..
* Some of the samples seem to be off-key. Shame, cos the song's great.
6. GooRoo - rainbow . it 5.000 - ***
* not bad at all. i'd go so far as to say you're getting a lot better.
:)
* Well done. Drums were a bit bland though - and the lead was a bit lac
king
* Hmm .. too repetitive. Too linear on dimensions of chord / theme
progression.
* Boring. No terrible mistakes, but nothing is really happening.
* Clich galore.
* Nice piece! You handle this style well, keep at it. I can't imagine wh
at that bassdrum is doing panned all the way to the left tho... :)
* torturing basedrum / base !
* HURRAY!! A song with good tuned samples/instruments...but it's not the
kind of magic...ahm...music I usually listen to. Show must go on!
* Yeah.. I liked this.. Nice.. =]
* Good techno tune...
good drums...
good sample correction...
The melody is missing...
But at all a very good song...
* At least samples are tuned. Seems like it's lacking something. Ah.. pe
rhaps more than the same two chords. ie you could have shifted up a ke
y somewhere ;)
* Geez. All you have to do is code an .IT player and you can write
your OWN demo soundtracks, man. :) Dis phunkee 80'z stuph RAWKS my
nadz. =)
7. Caramel - crmshih .s3m 4.500 - ***
* ewwwww, another ft2-hating mellow caramel tune. IN MONO. :) i don't
like it as much as some of your other tt tunes, probably because it's
so weird and random-sounding.
* Cute little song. Nice drums and the flute was nicely done. Sax was
strange and almost out of place.
* Poor mixing + samples out of key.
* Not a bad song. Could be a tuned a little bit better.
* Not bad. Bass seems out of tune. Chords at beginning are far too
wave-like, but that is gone quickly. Remainder is quite nice
actually. The snare is clipped osccasionally and annoyingly. The
final trumpet note seemed out of key.
* Not bad but the bass is out of tune and the whole song sounds kinda 'e
mpty'. It's melodic enough to do well tho.
* Nice conzept, but...where's the tuning? where are the smooth loops?
I know it's a bit different with ScreamTracker, but that's not an ex-
cuse.
* This song only just got this many points from me... It was ok but the
bass was a bit to 'loud' for my liking... but not bad at all
* didn't this stuff die in the 80s?
* Caramel's tune don't uses the samples so good...
The Melody is very thin...
The Samples are not so good corrected...
But the tune has his own style...
It realy swinging...
You can hear it, without becoming mad...
* Not too bad.. but tune those samples!!!!
* Samples in tune, decent rhythm, crap ending, hmm... learn to pan. :)
8. Zephyr - erasure2. it 4.100 - **+
* ok at first, but it got REALLY annoying with all those damn poorly-loo
ped strings wailing discordantly all over the place.
* Too cheesy / out of tune samples / repetitive.
* AUUGH another clipped snare! Well... nice string work. Pizza use is
disgusting. Flute isnt bad. Bass line doesnt quite fit the rest of
the song and the rez doesnt help much. Ah well.
* Oh cool. Techno! (*cheer*). This I didn't like.
* Not bad but that bassline gets seriously annoying. Transposing it for
a few patterns doesn't save it from its monotony either...
* cool chords, lovely flute solo
* A bit...a bit...a bit...to...to...to...re...re...re...peatish...ish...
BUT - worth 5 points!
* Extremely weird song i thought... but well written and sounds good
* It's a little bit wired...
The Samples are good corrected...
It has nice echos...
It's Interesting...
* Orchestration.. and clearer melody are something you should work on. B
ut it started off fairly well.
* Holistic melory creation isn't what it used to be, is it? :P
9. The Coding Master - world . xm 3.900 - **+
* blech. this shows some promise, but you need to practice a lot more.
the main problem i have with this tune is that it's VERY repetitive; m
akes me want to go drown myself in the toilet about 1 min or so in.
* Panning hurts my ears and drums sucked. Doesnt go anywhere. Code ins
tead :)
* Cheesy. Echo's supersaturated? Needs enhanced intricasy and theme.
* "ugh" (quota: librarian of unseen university ;). Hard to decide, this
time. This one is really nice.
* I'd like to take the chance yet again to say how horrible this packs
sample set was. As for the song, well.. its not bad for a coder.
Better than Heizahn at any rate.
* The drum-echo-effect was EXTREMELY ennerving.
The rest wasn't too much to brag about either.
* You claim to be a coder rather than a musician, but your tune fits tog
ether a lot better than some of the others here. This reminds me of th
e end to one of those cartoon movies like 'Jase and the Wheeled Warrio
rs' or something :).
* monotone drums...stop it !...what happened to ur coding ?
* It's quite good compared to your older 4Chnl-mods...maybe a bit slow,
but it doesn't make your ears CUM BLOOD. (keep up doing like you did)
Little hint: use SAMPLE-OFFSET on your SNARE-HIT-ECHOES so that they
sound softer...(should sound better)...greez to "the shadow" (whoever
she might be)...
* This song was good.. although it became qiute monotonous and tedius..
But a nice melodic tewN..
* Don't use piano samples when they're that bad!!
10. DigiByte - db-tt28 . it 3.800 - **+
* faded chord pads, flute, mellow percussion, piano. blah. oh wait, di
d i say this before? terribly sorry. :) this tune bored me to tears,
it was all i could do to listen through to the end.
* Ok... but repetative, and boring. The panning gets very annoying and
the the drums are plain and simple. Some chords just sound *wrong*
* One chord progression through-out the whole song? Doh!
* Chords shouldve been crossfaded instead of faded to and from 0.
Believe you me (heehee) it wouldve been worth the extra 3 channels.
Several dissonances. Looped piano went on too long in several
patterns, should've been faded out. Nice otherwise.
* Moody and all. Not too much variation. The occasional dissonance.
* What's the point of using IT when you pan manually and don't use NNA's
when you obviously need them? Aside from this your tune is fresh and
emotional. The leads need more volume control. Pretty well executed ov
erall.
* someplaces u have some very good chords....some weird some...and it's
a good solo....do not like the fade in on the chords ! ;)
* It's quite worth listening.But after a few minutes the melody is bur-
ried under chords'n'strings'n'so on.
* Very Nice background / Chords, nice effects.... Overall Nice sounding
song
* could've been mixed a little better
* Samples good corrected...
This tune has no real melody...
It has nice panning...
But there are too many instruments at one time (heavy)...
* Untuned Samples hurt my ears!!!!!!
* Your percussion was "dimmed" by panning it surround. :( The rest of
the song was nice tho. The piano loop sucked, which is a shame cos
the other samples were looped really well. You REALLY gotta break out
of the surround-panning habit tho.
11. FireStarter - fs-ttcow. xm 3.600 - **+
* i want to like this one a lot, but for some reason, i can't. good sho
w of talent, though... keep at it!
* Awesome ;) I could almost see the cows running through my house. Got
boring after the initial start. *could* have been really good :)
* Lovely cheesy first patterns. Too repetitive though. In some places yo
u only have a bland drum track going. If it's going to be a drum track
by itself, make it a GOOD drum track.
* I'M A FIRESTARTER! FIRESTARTER! I'M STR8 FROM HELL, YOU WANT A FIRE
I GOT A MATCH!! Not knowing what it is, well. Very strange tune.
The first part is better than the second part, but afterwards I can't
really remember why. Heh.
* YIKES! Where's that stop-button?
* The lack of bassdrum in the first part wasn't a good idea, and the per
cussion is too repetitive throughout the piece. Needs more volume cont
rol (ie. on the hihats) and more echos. The change is good tho, and su
its the title. You just need to work on your technical side - you have
some good ideas.
* fresh'n up !
* Don't blame it on the samples, don't blame it on the tracker...
excuse my my words because I say: "You are a pattern hacker!"
It's repeatish like a toilet-flush.
* Nice using of the samples...
Good sample corrected...
A little bit boring...
Only looped background melodys...
No real melody in the song...
The Trumpetpart is not so good...
But it's a nice Backgroundtune...
* "Mooo mooo".. Bloody "mooo mooo mooo" I say!
12. Lord Jon Ray - trance-b. it 3.250 - **
* the intro is nice, but after that... ugh.
* Trance? er.. ok ;) Nothing that great.. but the primal section was k
inda neat-o - and dont use a cowbell for a melody!
* Hrm .. not trance if the trance I've heard is a musical yardstick .. I
didn't like bell sample. In fact, upon listening to the sample you'll
hear a distinct note at (a bit below) the flat 3rd of the root "bell"
note. Bad sample!
* Wow. A trance cow bell. I don't know what to say.
* Atleast better than Logre2'3. A tad.
* Some of the notes are way off and this isn't trance at all. The elemen
ts that make a good piece are missing. It's just a mish mash of sample
s and notes.
* wake me up....scary tune and chords....make the drums stop !
* Sorry for you working soo loong...that is trance?!? I don't know...
Quite nice try...
* HeH... NiCE....
* It's nice...
The loops must be corrected...
The Drumpart is ok...
This song is ok...
* This sucks. Too much bass. Trance is more rhythm-based than this,
too, isn't it?
13. Znap - pitzem . xm 2.750 - **
* heh. kinda cute.
* Wierd :D Drums get annoying, but it is interesting :)
* Hm. Absurd. Sheesh.
* About what I wouldve expected for an hours worth of tracking. Several
fun/funny parts gave you a couple points.
* Another strong competitor to the famous Logre2'3-placings
* The bass is totally out here. Sure you did it in 54 mins but how about
a little variation? Sheesh...
* No chords, no tuning, no harmony...nothing to laugh about (you'd bet-
ter cry)
* cice theme here.. Cute little 'bell' song and nice bass.. With quite
complicated parts... Good Song :)
* A boring song...
No thing fits to the other... (I mean Melody and drums and so on...)
It has an bad end...
But It is an interesting mix...
A short tune...
Realy crazy....
* Eek..
* Urgh, TUNE your samples.
14. Pfister - wallace . it 2.600 - **
* we all need a little crack sometimes...
* suck - and i dont think covers are alowed
* I've never heard the W&G Theme Song before.
* Why, yes. And pass the popcorn while you're at it, will you?
* Sure it's more musical than some of the other pieces here but at 2 pat
ts you can't go wrong can you? :)
* how did u end up with this ?? really ? the loop can kill my dog !
* I like the film...you too?!? But can't remember the music so short...
* Hmmm... =D
* It's a nice chiptune...
But too short...
The melody is good, but all other is missing...
A funny tune...
* That sucked. :D The reverb was awesome tho. Put it to better use next
time. :)
15. Ryan - r_blood . xm 2.350 - *+
* *REALLY* bad name. Song was not that much better. yuckie
* Poor.
* No! No no no nononono!!
* This module falls into the category: "Tunes which titles I don't
want to know the origin of"
* You're using 4 channels (for some unknown reason) and nothing but the
drums seem to be coherent together. The song started off okay, so it's
a shame you've been let down by your ear. Learning some chord theory
might help you here, because your ear won't :).
* didn't make me cum, but honestly, i liked it...;) a bit...
* EARS, BLOODY EARS! See how the girls run...away!
* I didn't like the first part of this song at all... but the second
'part' was OK.. alot of parts 'out of tune' though..
* It's wired...
You can say the son is realy...
It's like a bad chiptune...
The melody is the best of this tune...
* Do you really? Scary stuff man.
* You still don't seem to have mastered writing the BASSLINE in the
SAME KEY as the REST of the song. :P (Can't fault your percussion
tho. :) )
16. Logre2'3 - 2'3_lsb . it 1.200 - *
* Hm... gave me a headache too. I would say nice try, but.. um.. it was
n't =] Maybe it would have been better if i was messed up ;)
* Incredibly bad.
* Stubby bass is very badly looped. Rez riff is irritating. Chords
are boring. Drums are not completely horrible.
* Once again you saved my day. Now, if you'll excuse me I think I
will go sucking on some exhaust pot somewhere.
* Your chances of getting higher than a 2.1 aren't gonna improve if your
notes are off :). You've built a song around a bassline that wasn't t
hat good in the first place. Better luck next time.
* hopefully it was my soundcard that failed....
* Argh! What's wrong now?!? Did IT crash?!? The samples sound like cor-
rupted...the pattern data seems to fly around on the screen!!! NO...
THIS SHOULD BE A SONG FOR THE TRACKERING...(out of words)
* Arg... i didn't like this one.. no offence.. Just some bits out of
tune completely and hardly anything goes together... the sounds clash
all too much..
* It's realy bad...
The samples are not good corrected, too...
* One wonders if music is required in tracking sometimes.
* Even thou this was still noise, was a bit of a tune there. Keep pract
ising.
* You're shit and you know it. =P~~~
You suck so much I'm surprised the moon's orbital path hasn't been
affected. =P~~~~~~~
You blow SO much I bet you live in a permanent fucking HURRICANE.
=P~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And yer looping's crap. =P~

-----< info >---------------------------------------------------------------
The Trackering is divided into 2 weeks, here's the info :
---- compo ---- Week : 1
The Trackering is held on channel #tt, every first and third
Saturday->Sunday of every month at 01.00AM CET / 07.00PM EST. I'll be
offering a samplepack in 1 hour, if you get them I'll declare you an
contestant. If you weren't there in time, you can always get the sample-
pack from ftp.cdrom.com /pub/demos/incoming/music/tt/samples, just make
sure you get the most recent pack. In the samplepack there is a file
called deadline.txt, this shows the date and time when the deadline is.
Right after you get the pack you can begin tracking.
I want all the tunes back before the following weekend, same time(1am
cet/7pm est). I'll be on IRC as axl_ (of course) at that time so you can
just dcc them to me, or mail it to 'axelsson@freenet.hut.fi' with either
UUEncode or MIME. This is just the deadline so you can send your tune
to me during the week.
* Note : TT is on AnotherNet,
so connect your irc-client to one of these AnotherNet servers:
- neato.org
- irc.netnation.com
- serve.org
---- voting ---- week : 2
The vote-pack will be out 1-2 hours after the compo-deadline and
the pack will be available on IRC and on FTP :
- ftp.cdrom.com /pub/demos/incoming/music/tt/votepacks
- ftp.arosnet.se /demo/musicdisk
- filename : tt##vote.zip - where ## is the number of the contest.
Everyone can judge the TT compo, but a contestant must judge it or
he'll be disqualified.
The voting system is a scale from 0-9. There will be a vote-form included
in the vote-pack, which is almost self-explainatory :), If you need
help on how to vote, then just mail me.
The results will be out 1 week after the compo has ended, it'll be
distributed on IRC and in the next sample-pack. You can also get it from
ftp.cdrom.com /pub/demos/incoming/music/tt/results
