Happy birthday, fluffy, Glenn and Ken!

Thank you! I'm faulty. No wait, forty. No wait, both.

Can't Let It Go by Vom Vorton With harmonies by The Lowest Bitter ! thanks to Mo for the idea for this song. I was feeling pretty down about my own music, life, etc. and he suggested I channel it into my lyrics instead of (my original plan) just dropping out of the competition and feeling sorry for...

Vom Vorton - i think the approach to the lyrical challenge is great. finding the fills between verse and chorus rather awkward. lovely synths and cool idea to save them for the contemporary narrative. Oh and I see you saving that V after the ii until the end of the song, clever. catchy tune, well d...

Floating in the Water by Vom Vorton In the early 1500s, a family joins the rush from Europe to the recently discovered Americas to start a new life. After their ship is wrecked, they resort to the classic Message-in-a-Bottle scenario in the hope that somebody will find their remote island. 500 year...

Because of the lower number of entries, it's three eliminations every round. That's confirmed somewhere but I can't remember which thread it's in.

Version 2.0 of Supermassive (delay / reverb) is out, with two new "EchoVerb" algorithms.

Ah, go on then. Adam Adamant - similar thoughts to your previous song, really: I like the sounds you're playing with here, the mix of lo-fi guitars and synths is really appealing and I like the way you've broken up your palindromic riff, something I don't think anyone else tried. The vocal melody fe...

Welp, this is one of those rounds where as soon as I start listening to everyone else's songs, I immediately kick myself for not googling the most basic thing - how to fucken pronounce deified. I just assumed it was DAY-ified with a long "a" (like it is in Latin - Deus Ex Machina), but ha...

play along at home! deified.png it's about cats obvz I know you’re just an animal, but when I look into your eyes I wonder if there’s something there that we no longer recognise I’ve heard there was a time when your kind would be venerated but I don’t know if these hieroglyphics have been mistransl...

That was a whole song palindrome though, this feels considerably more forgiving!

Quick reviews, first I've written in a while, I'll probably regret it, not promising to do this every round. Adam Adamant - really like the guitar and organ sounds you're working with here, and the distorted vox fit well. The "la la la" bits really don't work for me though, it feels like y...

This was the first thing that came into my head.

Thanks for the quick fix!

My song is missing too!

Just sent mine in. Looking forward to a first round of songs that are absolutely DRIPPING with positive vibes.

Friday the 13th by Vom Vorton calendar’s marked, we’re on a mission gotta keep up our superstition people said that it’s bad luck but we risked it once and the idea stuck the cabin’s booked and we’re on the way special rates for our special day if we get there fast we can take it slow so let’s get ...

Congrats Gil Sans! Good song!!

I'm gearing up to enter / write reviews again one of these days, but for now I'll just say that the Gil Sans song was great! More of that sort of thing, please.

Getting new people involved with the reviews would definitely be a good thing. If that can be gently encouraged somehow then I think that'd be a major plus. I tried to review every fight when I first joined and kept it up for a couple of years I think? But felt like I got burned out after a while. P...

https://vomvorton.bandcamp.com/album/silver-medal-songs a3811756520_16.jpg This is my album of songs from Nur Ein 2018. I spent a bunch of time polishing them up but for some reason, never got around to releasing them... until now! I'm really proud of these songs and it's good to finally set them lo...

I've got one written, for the first time in quite a while. Just finishing off the mix now and then will send it in.

Featuring live drums from a FAWM buddy.

edit: damn, apart from the "live" fight last year, this is my first solo submission in a full year! Yowch.
