The closest I've been to a win so far, I think I can get some songs in this kind of style to see if one will win.

Thanks everyone! It's really cool (and quite unexpected) to see so many people liked one of my favorite pieces from one of my favorite composers.
If you were all about my entry 100%, here are some other Shostakovich pieces. They're slightly less accessible due to length, and different from my entry in that they're less hectic and relentless, but they still have that great vintage Shosty charm (abundant use of motifs, well-placed dissonance, fun and unexpected melodies, smart counterpoint).
Concerto no. 2, mov. 1 - i'd say this is the one that people are most likely to enjoy. It's grandiose, complex, entertaining, one of Shostakovich's best known.
Symphony no 5, mov. 4 - this one carries a lot of the rolling pace as my entry with more conventional harmonies. Has a very strong feel of marching into battle, or something similar.
Piano trio no 2, mov 4 - I might be a lil biased because I've played this before. It's muted and builds slowly but is very similar in its structure of shifting parts around the instruments, uses stringsveryinterestingly, dissonant structure, it's good.did another ms user do something lovely? recognize their achievements here!
