Doc Jon - the meaning of life I like the general vibe and the mix of vocals and instrumentation. It feels to me a bit busy for ambient music, but it’s fairly chilled out so it’s not a long way from what I perceive the brief to be.

Well done to the winners and to everyone else - there were some excellent tracks last month. And also for the feedback - there's quite a bit of effort involved in critiquing and it's a rare thing to get.

I was slightly sceptical about lofi hiphop to start with but I’ve warmed to it. The brief was to create a Lofi hiphop or Chillhop track – relaxation music or music for learning, particularly for an audience that might be struggling with mental health issues. Mister Fox said: “The overall concept is ...
