Yeah, I've been listening to the stuff too, but it's really intimidating me because it seems all the humans in that contest are freakin' guitar gods.

Hehehe, yeah, I'm secretly hoping that Virt doesn't compete in this contest so I have at least a shot at winning :)

That's a damn lie and you know it! I remember you sent me one of your songs a while ago to do the drum tracks and you've got some great guitar skills!

The songs are up! Check it out!
There's a TON of different songs this time around, I think the most of any of the Dwelling of Duels contests, and a lot of them are really professional-sounding.
Unfortunately, the anonymity rule means I can't say which song I did until voting is over. But anyway, I predict that I'll end up in about 5th place. We'll see...

Excellent!
The Ninja Gaiden song is fantastic... I think it'll be the winner.
I think I can just about guess which song is yours...

tied for 8th Place! Yeah, mine was the Final Fantasy song.
Unfortunately the next contest is for the Metroid games and I don't really know any of the music from them... maybe I'll play one of 'em a bit to study :)

That was excellent. It reminded me of old Metallica in a way, like Ride the Lightning or Master of Puppets.
Have you listened to the Black Mages yet? It's Nobu Oumetsu(sp?) metal band that does FF combat music. Excellent.

Yeah, I kind of stole a riff from the fast part of "Orion" and used a lot of standard Hammet tricks in the solos.
EDIT:
Or rather, the standard Hammet tricks that I actually could play :)
