Round 4. 

The Voxyn – Efterklang – Modern Drift – 192
I loved the hell out of this song.  It was atypical enough without sacrificing any of the song’s awesomeness.  The strings were my favorite.  The one part where they faded out to the little electronic glitch was amazing.  Definitely my favorite submission this round.

Gorille – Mr. Bungle - Violenza domestica
Shame on me for having never listening to Disco Volante before!  Typically awesome Mr. Bungle here.  The song was moody, quirky, and unexpected all the way through! Awesome. 
6 points

Sonatafanica – Mother Mother – Dirty  Town
Something about this song was really funny, but I really enjoyed it too. The song was very well done, and the transitions between the intense, light, and just weird parts was perfect.  The vocals were also awesome. 
6 points

Jsem - Diablo Swing Orchestra - Ballrog Boogie
Really cool.  The whole boogie metal thing is really fun and different.  The song has an awesome groove, and there are some really interesting, unexpected, and weird parts to top it off. 
5 points

Lielow – Magma – K.A.I.
I know Magma.  Anyway, they are plenty different.  Some of their music leaves me cold sometimes, but this song was pretty fun and original.  It was a bit long, but still managed to mostly stay interesting. 
5 points

SneakyBlueberry – Mates of State – Open Book
Interesting!  I’ve not heard much music like this but it is very nice!  The male singer wasn’t quite up to par with the female singer, but it wasn’t too big of an issue.  The song had a nice air to it, and I liked it. 
4 points


Kingshmengland - The Avett Brothers - Kick Drum Heart
Had this been a round for the best stage presence, I would definitely give it every point ever, because the Asian cellist is fucking awesome. Even here, this is a really cool song, it wasn’t too different but it was really fun.

Thought the song wasn’t particularly different, I must say that you fulfilled the expectations of the round requirements considering that you’re probably the last person in the world who I’d expect to send this.  Anyway, it was a pleasant song and I enjoyed it. 
3 points

Letters – Haken – Celestial Elixir
A lot of this song was very well written.  It really was.  I wasn’t a big fan of the slick production but I got over it.  My only issue was the long, proggy instrumental sections… they didn’t really do much for me and they took up most of the song.  Still, it was very good in parts.

SoundscapeMN - Self - Trunk Fulla Amps
It was a nice, different song.  It was, to be honest, a bit over the top and annoying and repetitive at some parts, but overall quite enjoyable. 
2 points

MG - Tally Hall- Good Day
It was not a bad song.  I like the way the vocals sometimes harmonize and sometimes do their own thing.  But, to be honest, some of the parts were a slight bit irritating.  Not to say I didn't like it, though.

Does warm imply happy in any way in your opinion?

Yeah, that seems the most strict interpretation.  Really, this round is very open to whatever you make of the theme.

Is sending the same band allowed?

You mean one that's already been sent?  Only if they received a 1 or 2. 

LieLowTheWantedMan

Oh, okay. I was gonna send another Harmonium one, but I'll think of something else.

I have the feeling that I can score points here, although I have no idea what to send yet.

Also great that you enjoyed Efterklang so much. Been listening to them quite a bit lately, fantastic stuff.

There were too many choices for this round, and I feel that I went for the wrong one.

dtmajesty, I would suggest checking out more sElf even if you didn't find Trunk Fulla Amps that amazing. Matt Mahaffey in a lot of ways is a genius, and one of the most talented musicians/songwriters of the past 2 decades.

just check out the little bit on him here 1:40-4:18
