Stay tuned for the victor's mashup album later this year!

-------


7th Place: Kokichi's Dramaturgy, with a 32.25% average. 
[ Lost to Stupid Bus in R1M3, eliminated by a removed character in LR1M2. Don't be fooled by his percentage - he retains a base of dedicated supporters to this day. ]

6th Place: rag, with 42.47% average. 
[ Lost to SW:AD in R1M2, eliminated by Vincent in LR1M1. Resurrected into LR2M2, eliminated SW:AD, and was eliminated once and for all by Vincent once again. Divisive upon resurrection, and highly unconventional from start to finish. ]

5th Place: Stupid Bus, with a 46.93% average.
[ Defeated Kokichi in R1M3 and then lost to Garry Modulate in R2M2. Was then eliminated by Vincent in LR2M1. A high-energy fan favorite - to many, their demise in LR2 was a shock. ]

4th Place: Sweater Weather After Dark, with a 48.90% average.
[ Defeated Rag in R1M2, but ran out of luck in R2M1, losing to Sans. Fell to LR2 where she was eliminated by none other than Rag themselves. Her elimination set the disastrous consequences that followed in motion. Another perennial favorite with a uniquely mellow sound, her loss was a bitter disappointment for many. ]

3rd Place: Sans, with a 51.56% average.
[ Defeated Vincent in R1M1 and SWAD in R2M1. Proceeding into Winners' Finals, his success was abruptly cut short by Garry Modulate. Despite a late-game character swap from more controversial origins, Sans maintained massive prestige throughout the entire project. Notably came second in the bonus poll to determine who would be most likely to win out of anyone in the project, only falling short of the victor himself. ]

2nd Place: Vincent, with a 52.26% average.
[ Lost to Sans in R1M1 and began a reign of terror upon Losers' Bracket. He defeated Rag, Stupid Bus, won the rematch in Losers Finals, and was only stopped in Grand Finals. A titan of a character who fought ruthlessly every step of the way for his place with no safety net. ]

1st Place: Garry Modulate, with a 59.87% average.
[ Defeated all comers to take his place at the top. Despite originating from a pre-existing tournament project, his unique sound peerlessly charmed viewers - he was never in any danger throughout his run. Congratulations to his fans! ]

Lost

Лабиринт

It’s a portal. A sonic passage where  pop textures, electronic pulses, and cosmic atmospheres converge into a dreamlike ritual. Created within the resonant vision of **Enano Bendito Records**, this work invites listeners to expand beyond genre, entering a dimension where sound itself becomes constellation and memory.

* **“Ethereal Constellations”** unfolds like a sky of shimmering frequencies, delicate yet expansive, inviting you to lose yourself in infinite soundscapes.
* **“Ethereal Journey”** pulses with hypnotic rhythms, guiding you step by step through a trance of light, movement, and inner discovery.
* **“Galactic Waves”** is a tide of cosmic resonance, deep basslines flowing like oceans of starlight, carrying the listener into weightless immersion.
* **“Gravity of Dreams”** grounds the voyage, weaving warmth and melancholy with analog textures, a reminder that dreams also have their own gravitational pull.

The production embraces both **artificial intelligence and human sensitivity**, combining digital creation with analog mastering. Each track is a living experiment, refined by the Resonants, to feel alive, breathing, and soulful.

**Ethereal Journeys** is best experienced with headphones, under the night sky, or in collective ritual. It is music not for passing consumption, but for dwelling, feeling, and remembering.

### 🇪🇸 **Versión en Español**

**Ethereal Journeys** no es solo un álbum — es un portal. Un pasaje sonoro donde las texturas del pop, los pulsos electrónicos y las atmósferas cósmicas se entrelazan en un ritual onírico. Creado bajo la visión resonante de **Enano Bendito Records**, esta obra invita al oyente a expandirse más allá de los géneros, entrando en una dimensión donde el sonido mismo se convierte en constelación y memoria.

* **“Ethereal Constellations”** se despliega como un cielo de frecuencias brillantes, delicado y expansivo, invitando a perderse en paisajes infinitos.
* **“Ethereal Journey”** late con ritmos hipnóticos, guiando paso a paso hacia un trance de luz, movimiento y descubrimiento interior.
* **“Galactic Waves”** es una marea de resonancia cósmica, bajos profundos que fluyen como océanos de luz estelar, llevando al oyente a una inmersión ingrávida.
* **“Gravity of Dreams”** ancla el viaje, entretejiendo calidez y melancolía con texturas analógicas, recordando que hasta los sueños poseen su propia gravedad.

La producción fusiona **inteligencia artificial y sensibilidad humana**, uniendo creación digital con masterización analógica. Cada track es un experimento vivo, refinado por los Resonantes, para sentirse humano, cálido y vibrante.

**Ethereal Journeys** está hecho para escucharse con auriculares, bajo un cielo estrellado, o en ritual colectivo. No es música para consumir, sino para habitar, sentir y recordar.
