The standard is so high that it makes very difficult to judge. Sometimes you have to distinguish between what is "good" and what it is that you really like. To make my decisions I had to ask the question, "is this something I would listen to again and again?"

Best Instrumental Track
1st. Sonata (Kodaly) - Nordlys
2nd. Conceptual Inrush of a Midday Larva - gregsflat & co
3rd. Original Arrangement of Django - Doctor Scribbles

(Sonata is just a beautiful piece, beautifully performed. I really enjoyed the inventiveness of Conceptual Inrush. Django is well structured and superbly performed. Honourable mentions to Ugly Duchess - Krapsparov and Skating on a Winter Lake - Sonhouse & Family)

Best Vocal Track
1st. Bob - Krapsparov & Co
2nd. Oh My Sweet Carolina - Doctor Scribbles
3rd. Smooth - Gregsflat

(Bob - I love this girl's voice, which along with the music brings back fond memories of 80's group Blondie. Great lyrics. Brilliant. Sweet Carolina - this is so cool and mellow with superb vocals. Smooth - very accomplished. Honourable mentions to Another Ragged Phoenix will be rising - Sonhouse and Lycanthropic Mysogynojhippie - The Wolfpack Two.)

Best Computer Track (an easy one for me!)
1st. A Brother's Coconut (Grotan Project/Nilsson)- dk3nny

(Okay, I only had one choice here, but A Brother's Coconut is really very enjoyable)

It's really tough to decide gatecrasher. I, like you, feel the need to include explanations with my choices but will get round to it. I have listened to all the pieces again and have to type that no piece is perfect (which makes it better) but that the standard is amazing!

Okay, one more listen and then I shall nail my colours to the mast.

I wish to acknowledge the complexity of this exercise was good for my computer chops.

I’m omitting my vote in any catagory I might be considered, even though I sung “Smooth” I did not wish to be considered in vocal voting, more, my musicianship as a guitarist, as a whole, playing a cover song with a band format.

Best Vocal Track
1st. Another Ragged Phoenix
2nd. Oh My Sweet Carolina

Best Computer Track
1st. Coastal Lows Natural
2nd. A Brothers Coconut

Best Vocal Track

1st. Oh my sweet Carolina – Doctor Scribbles
2nd. Smooth - Gregsflat
3rd. Losing my religion - Jimslyp

I could not decide between 1 and 2. I listened over and over to both songs and still couldn't decide. In the end i relied on my very first impression upon hearing them both for the first time. Oh my sweet Carolina i was gobsmacked. Smooth was OH Yeah!! I love listening to Losing my religion and i really liked Jimslyp's version.

Excellent and thanks for your efforts.

That is the fairest way. I'd like to see all entrants voting in all categories, but not for themselves.
