sampled beat sounds really good, another nice crunchy one to join Elks in the Sampled Beat Hall of Fame. Vocals superb as always and the arrangement is really nice. After a few listens I find the you know me / you don't know me not to be the most interesting hook, but I love the "I could have torn that novel up" pre-chorus bit and there's plenty of ear candy throughout.

Wow, this sounds great, lots of ear candy, lots of mood. I always really appreciate the precise way you (Erin) use space in your singing, the length of syllables, all that good stuff. The "You think you know me" bit is great but like Vom I did kind of want another vocal hook by the end of the song to really kick it into another gear.

This is a very cool and atmospheric song. The samples are prominent and I think you've done an excellent job of sequencing them into a rhythmic pattern. In terms of how integral the samples are; I feel like this would still be a good song if they were all removed. You have plenty of synths and layers to accompany the vocals. I checked the liner notes and I don't think any of the melodic instruments except for the bass are samples (right?). So I'm in the middle about this one. Definitely it would lose something without the percussion and other details, so I would say you've done enough to satisfy the challenge.

I like the garage door ambience. The scotch tape dispenser and match striking both sound great. Kind of a trip hoppy vibe to this. I dig the bitcrushed synth that comes in around 1:15 or so. The contrast between the piano and the scratchy samples is nice. The whispered bridge is creepy in a good way. The buildup throughout the song is cool. Vocal performance is immaculate as always. This song needs to be in a 90s vampire movie.

This track has a nice trip hoppy feel to it. I do think it would benefit from a bit more variety, as a lot of the sections are repeated numerous times. As always, the vocals are superb and I especially enjoyed the swirly, psychedelic feel the samples give in the break before the last chorus. I really liked this song but it does feel slightly like you were playing it a little safe (probably the best course of action on such an outside of the box challenge).
