A nice song... on the first time I listened to it. On the second time it already tasted like wood. The idea for this song maybe isn't the freshest either, I have heard a dozen same kind of songs. You should have used more pannings to get the song feel more alive and cool. And a little bit of bass wouldn't be bad either. Due the very short lenght of this song, and the old idea, the song gave me very empty feeling.

Easy listening, well balanced music... Not many stereo FX, but this isn't really needed in this type of module. The quality of the samples could be improved. Sorry for this VERY short comment but I just realised that the actual deadline is at Sun 10/8 00:00 GMT instead of Sun 10/8 24:00 GMT! I'm terrible sorry.

Song progresses too slowly. Samples are out of tune. Very dischordant. Is this really your seventh song? A general rule is to not distribute your really early music... you might regret it later on... I know, it's nice to get comments, but they're all going to be basic comments like I gave.... (Disclaimer: Emergency Vote!)

*File Specs* [Additional vote] ... [Filename]m6r-bana.xm [Title]Banana Ride [General comment]This is a very funny song, the melodical lines are great and yet so simplistic, thumbs up but why having this audience on the background all the time? Some nice panning tricks are used in a few percussional/sfx samples but the majority is being played mono, why? Well enough questions, most of your instrumental use is okay sometimes a bit too synthetic but i did not had the idea that you had big realtime instrument emulating plans for this song did you?

Nice idea, decent execution. The samples were terrible. At times this felt like random notes. It was kinda funny but it couldn't hold itself up for the length of this song. The lead was rather generic and it sounded like alt-c was used a lot more than necessary. Good luck on your next song!
