Upon a full listen, my favorite songs are:
"Blank Page" - Predictions of Yesterday (sounds absolutely fantastic)
"Anthemic" - Quiet Please (hehe)
"While My Guitar Gently Weeps" - Skyline (digging the guitar)
"Do I Have To?" - Sometimes the Cat (sounds like veggieman)
"The Answer Is No" - Drama Joint (Do I Have To? -> The Answer Is No)

Listening to it now. Will edit this post with further thoughts.
1) These Shades: good intro to the album, it's like a weird kind of dubstep
2) Under the Trees: Awesome chiptune, would be great song for a scratch game even
3) Underage: Another cool chiptuney thing
4) Heartbeat of the galaxy: This sounds really neat, building the suspense and everything!
5) With a Twist of Lemon: Zesty!!!
6) Failed Experiment: Cool synth sounds, with awesome stereo and professional sounding finish
7) Ace of Errors: Despite the 'Errorish' sound, the background melody is really cool!
8) Orca: This is like a slow dance beat right? Wait, now I hear more dubstepish stuff Awesome ending bit!
9) h84c%^,r;: Creepy ambient music O_o
10) Farewell my Friend: So cool to have a refresher after all the electronic music, but it sounds like the kind of music that would be played in a dungeon RPG game or something lol
11) Flash: Awesome Riff!!!!
12) Blank Page: Kind of dull, but first lyrics on the album
13) Anthemic: Great rhyming and rhythm and vocal harmonic, kinda needs a wider stereo though.
14) More than one letter: Too disharmonic :s
15) Is that enough: Catchy music, could do with better vocals
16) While My Guitar Gently Weeps: My song
17) The Crownless: Good piano music.
18) Do I have to?: Great song, I like it a lot and it's catchy. The rhythm guitar is cool!
19) The answer is no: Weird song... interesting to listen to.
20) Submarine: Cool stereo effects, though I'm not a big fan of electronic music...
21) untitled: Interesting, but it seems a bit quiet
22) Ultrasound House: It would be good video game music
23)

Only on track 2
Awesome so far

I'm going to pretend that These Shades was a single for this album because it is track 01 and declare that the best decision ever made
What's the runtime?

Like an hour and 5 minutes or something

Alright, I just skim-listened through it; dumping my thoughts.
____________________________
These Shades: wat
Under the Trees: Nice intro. Would sound lovely with some bass. Bass it's where it's at. B)
underageb&: would make an awesome boss tune.
The Heartbeat of the Galaxy: Also severely lacking bass!
With a Twist of Lemon: Catchy riff. Suffers from nobassitis as well. :c
Failed Experiment: Nice riff, would be much better if it were longer and drums kicked in, while still playing the intro riff.
Acë öf Errörs: the idea is nice but gets boring after a while. Hadn't listened to it 'till now.
Orca: I have listened to this one and it's a great song. Very progressive and catchy throughout. c:
h84c%^,r;: Oooh ambient-ish Evokes images of a forest or something; I'd see it as a exploration tune, if you know what I mean.
Farewell my Friend: This one's beautiful. :'3
Flash: I see you're using Noteflight. Well, the song's great; catchy intro riff and some jazzy chords in between.
Blank Page: Nice, can't make out the vocals though. Typical campfire-ish (? I don't even know what it's about) song in the end
Anthemic: You guys already know what I know about this one; great song, vocals and mixing could be better (actually pretty much everything in this compo could've been mixed better)
More than one letter (like two letters): I'm "wat"-ing at this one. Eh, free time ftw I guess?
Is That Enough?: "like two letters, is that enough?" Can barely make this song out.
While My Guitar Gently Weeps: I don't know the Beatles' original (I'm dead serious), but it's a nice cover, if you played the instruments that is
The Crownless: Really liking this one aside from the mic's tone. If Google's right, it's soundtrack for a movie?
Do I Have To?: Great start, and riffs! "And the answer will be no?" oh wait-
The Answer is No: ...This definitely was intentional. Nice song
Submarine: Lovely chips. Didn't think a square wave with delay would sound good until now. Nice.
Grav's (untitled): Good ol' FL Slayer. Repetitive but good; catchy.
Ultrasound House: oh boy this one's much louder than the rest of the album. I'm not to judge my own song but, idk, listening to this after all of yours' makes me realize I'm a very repetive composer.
Solace: The intro gets on my nerves from the repetitive. D: Nice ambient-ish pads after it though
pony cheese: pony cheese, po-nee chee-seh
____________________
In conclusion: Don't ignore the bass asdgaegetgscefcgwrwl and take the time to practice mixing skills c:
Favorites: underageb&, h84(stuff), Orca, Farewell My Friend, Do I Have To?, (untitled). Props to their authors and to everyone who took the time to create something for this compo (unlike me qq) c:

Oh whoops. I normalised most of the rest of it but must have forgotten this one
