That's one reason it's still marked as alpha. I'll probably add that this weekend.

The first three positions were announced here:

I watched it in the morning while lying in the bed and I was like WFT??? when I heard my track. :shock:
Thanks to all the voters, this really made me totally surprised! :D

I just saw that I was already informed two days ago by SpotlightKid via email, which was in my spam folder :?
So, it might be good to check you spam emails folder (which I usually don't do).

Congrats!
A little bit further in the stream there's a sheet shown with the results.

I got 5th place.
Dunno the rest from the top of my head.

Also, we need a new challenge :-)
Who's got a cool idea?

Congrats to everybody!

And even if you didn't make it to the top three, pat yourself on the back, because there were a lot of awesome tracks.

@lilith Your track was actually my favourite, but as the organizer I didn't vote. But I guess it would have been hard anyway, so many great tracks to choose from!

Yes, I would like to hear your ideas! Don't know yet, when the next challenge will be, but we'll certainly do another one.

Wow thank you!! Can't tell you how motivating this is :D :D :D
I gave the maximum number of points to Kaskade Zwo by spurkopf (whoever that is ... ).

Let's brainstorm.

make a song in MuseScore. External samples allowed (or not)
make a song in Muse3 (aka The Great Debugging)
make a song with only a certain suite of plugins ; zam audio plugins, lsp, calf, the gx stuff
make a song in Ardour with only a-reasonable synth (any sound mangling or sampling allowed, because this is really tough)
make a song with your DE sounds (o.O wut?) , like the startup sounds, closing windows etc.

I don't play guitar but I'd love a guitar thing challenge. You guitar players probably have better ideas for that.

I like the idea of a challenge with recorded instruments (or any recorded sounds). It would probably be neccessary to set some restrictions to make it a real challenge.

One thing I'm strongly considering is making the next challenge Open Source only, i.e. no closed-source plugins allowed anymore, maybe even no proprietary DAWs.

Do you mean pre-recorded tracks, like a remix?

Opensource only is a good idea.
