[ The bending effect at the end might have been a bit overdone, but I like the idea.]

Damn right it was overdone! I can't use my $80 dollar keyboard without featuring the almighty bend at least once.

It's evident from your critiques that you know a bit of music theory. That's always relieving to see in a musician nowadays. Thanks for the reviews, you were a little soft on that Pez guy though...

p.s. Adam, I think your track sounds like old Talking Heads after a long night of drinking. Which is awesome![/quote]

Look me up in a few years when I'm famous and I'll buy you a beer.

But seriously, once you get really good at the piano, and I mean really good, and know your theory, learning new instruments can be done in a fraction of the time. Here's the instrument wall in my room... inverted using ms paint! Wooooooh! http://www.pezshow.com/files/instruments1.jpg

Hey Pat, thanks for your comments. My number one problem right now is puting too much in my recordings. I've been working on trying to keep a clean sound and not overdo it by playing too many instruments or adding too many background effects at once. It's just so hard!

Alrighty.

Ben

I don't know if that's really a good idea.
If everybody who entered really wants to know, I can post them.

Pat - 32 - 1st
Ben - 32 - 1st
Walrus - 28 - 3rd
praisedave - 16 - 4th
AdamCU - 12 - 5th

The highest you could get was 40 points (8 * 5) and the lowest you could get was 8 points (8 * 1). Like I said before, it was hard to put them in order, cuz they were all good in their own ways. Best of luck to the people who are improving. That is never a bad thing.

EDIT: Yes, i agree about Walrus' mp3. It sounded like a cross between a James Bond movie and Kashmir by Zeppelin. Well done to all.

I also want to say that it took alot of guts/balls to enter this contest and show off your stuff to the world. You 5 are all winners. I'll stop sounding like "The More You Know" now..
