Currently working on a piece myself. Despite my apprehension and personal bias towards the device my opinion has changed a bit.

i like the k.markov - hydrogen atom entry so far :) (i know its the only entry lol).
i love the retro jean michel jarre, vangelis kind of ambient vibes he's doing.
actually checked out his band camp page, not bad at all, great music for study etc.
worth taking a look if you enjoy ambient electronic music yeah,
heres a link for anybody who may be interested ?

Finally it's done. It's a pretty weird one.
It surprising to see so few entrants for this song challenge, but perhaps it's because there's been a couple of competitions around at the same time.

Awesome, ..

Probably won't have time to make an entry by then but I've downloaded the demo.

Looking forward to trying out the sounds :)

It doesn't appear to be the most popular challenge ever but I've had some fun! I went the orchestral route in an attempt to make life hard for myself.
"Humane Fishing" is the result of my endeavours.
Good luck to everyone in the competition.

Grum.
