BRONZE BATTLE

NOTE:  This is our first month implementing this new prize.  I made the mistake of deciding that it would be me who picks the winner, but this is silly.  Starting next month, I will be asking all the members from the finals (who are just waiting around twidling their thumbs) to vote on the BRONZE BATTLE; But, for this month you’re stuck with my subjective opinion!

So, jameskershaw finished third in the finals.  BUT, was his mix really better than all the 3rd place members from each group in Round 1?  That is the question!  After all, any of those 3rd place mixes from Round 1 might have just been in a tough group right?

Comparing jameskershaw’s mix to JTC, Melanhead, pmilani, and kaldlyd my decision is that Melanhead has the best mix!!!  BUT jameskershaw was a very close second IMO!  Because it’s kinda silly for little old me to decide, I’m going to call it a draw!

CONGRATS to Melanhead and jameskershaw for winning our inaugural BRONZE BATTLE!  You’ve both won a free month of TOURNA-MIX!

AND OUR ROUND 1 WINNERS ARE…

MIX CONTEST # 2

This month we get to enjoy mixing a really nice organic production provided to us by T-M member Cezar Habeanu.  The vision for “Fire” was inspired by artists such as Damien Rice and Jason Mraz.  Think soft, chill, moody singer-songwriter revolving around the theme of a “love hate relationship”.  A pristine acoustic guitar recording and tender vocal delivery drive this song into a pretty epic outro.  Mixing dynamic productions like this is always a challenge and a treat.  Have fun folks!
