Yesterday, I posted a note talking about a nasty comment left by the Music Emissions music editor attacking my listeners. As it turned out, he had not even listened to my music!
So...after some bickering and defenses on my end and from a few other contestants, the editor listened to the tracks and then shared his actual opinion. How did that go?

"Hopefully, we're past all the childish sh*t, and I can dedicate some time to Bassel's music. Songs like "Wake Up" have tasty melodies and a nachalant brazen relaxedness. "Find Myself" featuring Annabel? Is that right? Didn't really enjoy what I heard of Annabel a few months ago, but if they're involved it seems to me they are complimented well by Bassel. Light keys give way to a well written exploration of lounge leading post modern rock.
I'm not quite grasping the lead vocals, which have appeal to me, but are seemingly missing that something extra. The tingy energy of "Winter Dreams" is a perfect example of this. Like, Al-Madani is nearly to the finish line on almost every chord, and I'm left teased. The guitar melodies in "Winter Dreams" have this almost Crash Test Dummies surround sound.
As labeled on their myspace an older track, "I Can't Save You", at times features a group effort on vocals. If this is older material, I'd certainly agree that the progression of Bassel is something to look out for in future recordings. 7.5 stars rounded up for their sparkling personalities.
Rating: 8/10"

...So I guess that ended on a fair note. Nonetheless, the sequence of events was a bit crazy. The main IOTY moderator then came on to share his beliefs on fair play and what the contest is actually supposed to be about.
The point is, we're back now! And IOTY still goes until October 31. Please sign on Music Emissions and cast your vote. Then please take a second and share some of your thoughts on what happened with this situation.
