Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
... my vote would be Jezzlemming - nicely played.
(with an honourable mention for Branshen's tap-dancing camel percussion and excellent photo)

My vote is going to steamabacus, really nice percussive looped bits with some very nice single lines on top.
Impressed that all the entries captured the mood of a pretty tricky genre.. I wouldn't have known where to even begin!
We done to everyone all great tunes!
Though it's a close call!
Listened to 'em all a couple of times while faffing about.
Steamabacus +1
