Well they both Definitely have their own Strengths and Weaknesses... And it IS Surprising how Unique they both turned out.

But Nattak's, for me, just had a Stronger Presence because it filled the Ambient Space so well...
Although I think Royaken's had certain Sounds being described more Accurately.

This could have been a Compression Issue, I suppose... With both Songs at 3:02, Nattak's weighed in at 7 megs, while Royaken's was a lean 3.2 megs. I'm not sure what Programs you guys work with, but I imagine Nattak's was Compressed at something like 320kbps with a 32-bit float if it was a WAV first. It just sounded so Full.

Both you guys did a Great Job, though. I'm impressed.

Well, here's my dilemma. They're both so good that every time I listen to one, I want to vote for it. Then, I go and listen to the other, and I want to vote for that one again!

EDIT: Listening to both at the same time does not appear to solve my problem. 0_o

You both did an excellent Job on the Song But, I have to go with Royaken's Unique sound to the Mix.

While I appreciate that you'll need to actually click the vote in the poll up top or it won't count xD. I MUST HAVE VOTES \O []O/!

Sorry, I totally forgot. You have been voted for.

I can't decide between them... so, since the votes are 2/3 (and I'm a little on the mood of trolling xD), I'll make this more interesting with a draw to 3.

Look, I think you both did a great job, I listened to both of them and if this was a race, my vote is Gi Nattak(I hope that's how you spell the screenname) over Royaken(I hope that name is right) by a nose. Both sounded good, I just had to choose one and the decision was not easy.

Welp, looks like I've tied it up again. I'd have to go with Royaken because there are a couple parts I prefer, although there is one note that sounds...inaccurate to me, but I'd have a hard time accurately conveying which one(also I'm not sure if it was intended or not). However, both are really good and it was rather difficult to choose the winner.

[Royaken]

Omg, head to head every step of the way xD

EDIT: OH NO I'M LOSING \O []O/;;!!!!
