Thanks for making this challenge fun and interesting.

I'll need another couple of listens to pick my top three. I'm going to take it on trust that nobody has smuggled any illegal substitutions into their luggage.
Maybe we should adopt a Tour de France jersey system for general composition (yellow), king of the changes (polkadot) and best saturated tone (brown)
I think this was a very hard challenge but on the plus side, there's been no "pentatonic noodling" and I found everything that was submitted was harmonically very interesting. Oddly enough, I'd never have guessed that everyone had to use the same three chords, despite their distinctive sound.
Hopefully, the next one will be a bit more open to interpretation and we'll have a few more entries.
An interesting task which got my little grey cells working overtime. What's really impressed me is the overall standard which is very high. Can't wait for the next challenge.
Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
I did mine using Addictive Drums. I'm still acclimatising myself to using this with Cubase but it's pretty easy to get to grips with the basics - lots of preset patterns (my main groove is based on an AD preset), usable kits and easy to mix the sound (especially with tweaking the room mics level).

I will experiment with the drum stuff that comes with Komplete. It seems to be just a case of using midi loops, which has the benefit of simplicity but the selection of styles and fills is nowhere near as great as the variety you can generate with Jamstix. I'm sure there's a happy medium somewhere but I'm skint so I will persevere with my current setup.

(Or may even just do an acoustic piece). Can't wait to do this zombie-themed one!
