Telco song seems good for listening to while working.

I clicked 5 different versions before I got that its a trance/elektro thing and I wasn't misclicking remixes.

Why did I agree to an avatar bet in a Walrus judged by BlooWOAT?

My submission still comfortably the best so far. Not even close.

Oh whatever imma continue the reveal. loltchaz submitted two songs for this category by mistake, I'm just going to use the one I assumed it was when making my spreadsheet

It'll score better than his other choice anyway.

In 19th place, scoring 7 points

Big jump in quality from 20th to 19th IMO. This is an artist I love, but a song I do not. Anyone sweating yet?

Love Kate, but everything I've heard of her latest stuff has just been 'ok'. I love her when she's in full-on crazy 'Sat In Your Lap' mode, not this kinda overblown, overly long and slow piano thing. Good category fit, only an OK song.

This is pretty decent but doesn't really click with me for whatever reason. Maybe just all a bit too downbeat and depressing.

Obv know NiN, but not this song. This was better than the stuff by them I'd heard before. The change in intensity at about 2:20 was pretty great, but the rest of the song didn't do too much for me.

Mexi's song doesn't sound like a mexi-song... that's a compliment.

I'm pretty sure I've judged the wrong tchaz song before... probably several times.

Mexi song super reasonable, like that the most so far from what I've heard.

lol xpost curse

The second best category fit in the group, but just not something I'd ever really choose to listen to. Very pleasant on its own, very wintery, nice enough to listen to, but I can't imagine ever loving this.

Never heard of the performer or composer. tchaz also tried to submit Fog on the Tyne by Lindesfarne for this (he submitted a writeup for that, but this was in his table of submissions at the end of his PM, and I didn't check to see that they matched when taking the table), which would have done...poorly. So he can thank me for misreading his confusing PM.

I insta knew this was mine from the teaser heh. Submission was a gambool for sure. Dead last would have come as a shock, otherwise no placing would have surprised me.

Woo double figures! This ranked significantly lower on a first listen, but I warmed up to it a bit on repeated listens. Quite a nice snuggly little track, but just doesn't really go anywhere, and the main sound isn't exciting enough to carry the track on its own.

Nope, not heard of them. Sort of feel like this could be one of those cases where someone might have other tracks lurking around that I'd like more than the one submitted.
