How do we feel about covers?
Personally I think there's a right way and a wrong way.
I think you can get creative, use a song to inspire unique techniques with the limits of the voice. Jairo is like a middle ground, where they absolutely copy the entirety of songs like Fuego and Fox Stevenson, but I think they're creative at the moments where it matters, and manage to make it unique enough.
I don't like when a songs arrangement is completely copied down to the small details.
In GBB25, Beatbox House's best drop feels completely stolen. Bass, riff, melody and beat

It's just a shame that whilst Orbitt made their own original music it was being judged against this.
