Ok, so on top of being busy, I haven't quite gotten all the songs yet, and there are some songs with... dead links. So in the next few days I'll round those up. For now, here's the first match, Dayjo vs. Uma.

The Mountain

"You reached the Second Base Camp late last night.
The air is thin and the wind is cold, but it's all worth it.
The land pans out beneath you for miles; you can barely see the villages below you.
It's time to start climbing.
You gather up your gear, secure your harness, and start to climb.
At an altitude this unforgiving, one small mistake could be the end.
As you climb, you hear the grinding of ice and a yell..."

I wasn't able to download uma's theme... (I don't know why, but I haven't been able to download anything from ripway (nor binary phoenix), so I only heard Dayjo's theme).

Congratulations, Dayjo, your theme is awesome! :)

But I didn't vote in him because I haven't heard uma's theme yet.

@uma
I can't believe you voted in Dayjo XD You seem very pessimistic, lol.

What? Pessimistic!? Maaan, no way! I didn't do this to win man, I did this for experience! I don't care if Dayjo wins, ya' know? BUT you can listen to my theme of my furaffinity. Linkage here: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/617059/

Besides, Dayjo's theme is awesome. Maybe its because its not my competition theme i'm listening too is why I think its so awesome. Even if that was the case, I would think its pretty awesome. IMO, voting for yourself is pretty cheap unless you really really really think you deserve it.

IMO, both your and Dayjo's themes are great. As they are different styles of music, it's hard to choose one... I voted in Dayjo's.

 Dayjo... I liked yours, but it wasn't really me. It was a bit too energetic, happy almost, to be the description. I would compare it to the music in Spyro...

 Uma, pretty good song although I hated the beginning, once the violin comes in, I like it alot more. Seems inspired by alot of other songs.

Yeah... I listen to tons of music. I even listen to things while i'm composing stuff. Of course, I pause what I was listening to... but I unpause frequently. Usually pop and rap stuff. Mc Hammer, Nelly Furtado, Fergie, Gwen Staffani, Lupe Fiasco, Kanye West, alot others. I also listen to ska. Mainly No Doubt :3. And rock... Tokyo Police Club, Relient K, Half Japanese and stuff. And some videogame music, though not as much as I you'st to.

I have a strange musical palette lol.

I personally felt the beginning was the best part. Good thing I didn't stick to the beginning part so much ^_^;;.

Yours is great Uma, I like the way it's kind of modernised. There was a couple odd notes I noticed though. But generally it's really nice, much longer than mine and fits the story really well, really feels like "climbing" kind of music. Great job :D .. I'm not sure I'm going to vote, as I'd just be tempted to vote for myself.. not that I'm in it for the winning.. it's all good experience and practice.

Shame I only had an hour to work on mine, else it'd probably be a lot better.

Thank you! Some of my notes were hard to figure out... I was all like "huh wut?" with them. I wish I could added more of pop/hip-hop feeling to it. Like using real music samples, record scratching, strange percussion samples, strange instruments and stuff... but I don't think I would get a positive response to it, you know? People would be all "Huh wtf record scratching? Wtf are those drum samples those aren't real" and stuff.

Oh well... this was hard for me. I usually do exactly what I said above for my songs for *secret project*. But I didn't this time...

Heh. Both very interesting takes on the theme. I quite liked Uma's although the very beginning is perhaps a little cluttered. The mastering blurs everything a little, though in this case it actually adds to the piece rather than detracts from it. There's some interesting dissonance there, and it's overall quite a heavily laden and powerful piece.

Dayjo's conveys a much more personal feeling than Uma's does, with it's much more subdued instrumentation; though it is no less striking. It feels more like an individual's perspective, a lone climber where Uma gives the impression of a larger group. This can also be construed as a difference in circumstance however, as the pieces could tell stories of different mountains where Dayjo's is a much more secluded place, a far more harmonious place than Uma's.

I am undecided.

They both sound way too amazing to be compared. I need an hour to decide.

Edit: God damn, they both have their ups and downs. I'd have to say Uma's. It may not fit the story so much, but it is a rich composition.

Damn vacation. I could have been in this T_T Anyway, I prefer uma's song on the whole, but the ambience, softness, and folksiness of Dayjo's fits the theme better. So he got my vote.
