Alright, here goes:

<object height="81" width="100%"> <param name="movie" value="http://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F19639035"></param> <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param> <embed allowscriptaccess="always" height="81" src="http://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F19639035" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="100%"></embed> </object> <span><a href="http://soundcloud.com/pauligrinder/the-haunted-forest">The Haunted Forest</a> by <a href="http://soundcloud.com/pauligrinder">Pauligrinder</a></span>

I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, even though I didn't have enough time to put any bass into it (would've had to boot into windows since I don't have any proper bass vst's/au's for mac os x).
Ended up being quite simple too, but I like the atmosphere and it should fit the theme perfectly too (altough the mist in my forest is very thick and it's getting dark too) :)

I kind of ignored the theme and just threw something together then put some vocals that fit the theme on top :lol:. I did realize, however, that I have no mic here to do vocals so I rocked it through the built-in mic on my laptop. One take bullshitting some lyrics and a melody which is kinda sorta ok until the end :ugh:

This is kind of a jibba jabba, but should we try to leave the theme as secret? I haven't even emailed you and know a lot about the theme.

Not that I would or even wanted to get advantage of it, just sayin'.

^I was thinking about that earlier, but this contest is pretty laid back so i'm not going to rage on anybody about it. It is the honor system after all. :)

Great entries so far! Lets keep em coming!
