This is a fast track with an evil atmosphere surrounding it, supposed to fit for small dark maps.

Sounds nice. Has a good pace thingie. I certainly feel that it is not fully completed, it seems to be a bit thin texture wise. I think it could be good and has some potential

I'm trying to make a pretty "medium dark" feel of this track, ie. I want it to sound evil but
not too brutal. Currently it's pretty "plain" in terms of atmosphere and feel, I'm just not
sure if I want to give it an outdoor jungly feel or more futuristic one, currently I guess it's
more on the futuristic side. It consists of three drops, the first two are the same and focus
mostly on the bass then ending with the third one focusing more on the lead.

May I suggest that you pick a map for the music to go with?

Also, could you provide an ogg file with the loop points properly defined (unless the track is already loopable)?

haven't read much of this thread but i think that the forums at www.kvraudio.com are the perfect place to post a competition like this. there are amazing talents over there waiting to contribute to stuff that they like. its THE forum for audio software users i'd say

Okey updated to GPL and link to "source" file, I will be busy this weekend so it's just in case I don't manage to finish the track before the contest.

Thank you again!

Could you provide some explanation on how and why do you think your music fits Xonotic?

If you identify a map for your music to go with, I can even put your music on the server for people to experience it during the game.

I don't like the very beginning but it has spooky atmosphere to it... which unfortunately disapears! Would be awesome to have some sort of atmosphere to the whole piece. The great thing about this music is that it certainly has catchy musical theme (melody). I found myself singing it long after I heard it. 1:59 is really good. Overal very good work! I enjoyed listening to it and I think it is very suitable to Xonotic.
