Well that was easy. :) Not a bad lot of tracks, overall---I only dislike one, and the one ones I gave points to are eternal favourites now, probably.

Lots of good songs in this battle week.

What I don't understand is that Verytex didn't even get a point from me during its week, yet I'm throwing it something here. Everything else was stuff I really liked before.

With vast apologies to: IRiS - a vision

I'm hearing most of these for the first time, and I like almost all of them. Nice ambient grooves going on.

Pretty solid batch of winners, the worst I can say about a few of the tracks is only that they're unremarkable. Excellent variety as well.

It upsets me that this is the second time I've been able to vote for st. gabriel's mask and again I've run out of points for it. :(

It's a testament to how sublime this 8-week period has been when you realize that this battle is not only excellent, but far from perfect.

That's two chiptune battle winners in a row. =o

Aww tight result. I guess it was a bit too optimistic of me to think my first battle entrant would be a gold. 2nd place isn't bad though. :)

Congratulations to CHz and Verytex though; a truly deserving track!
