Congrats on finding the space bar key! Once again a very fine track here. Very powerful and nicely produced. I love what you're doing with the sustained vocals here... granulating them... or cutting them up to extend them a bit... reminds me of the effect they used in the Matrix for when Neo takes the red pill. Once again you've managed to keep the entire song very interesting and engaging, even though you're only using the one chord progression throughout. My only critizisms would be that it could use a little bit more in the way of bass... the only thing I can really hear in the guttral region is the kick drum, but the song does still work as it is. Also, much of this song seems to be panned in the center. Only background/secondary sounds seem to have variation in the L/R space... and since they're not what you're paying most attention to, this mix sounds considerably smaller/thinner than many of your other songs (Purpleliquidflower being the widest of them all so far). I mean I can hear that its there, the guitars are spaced... theres a fair bit of reverb/delay being used etc... but the majority of the drums, strings and vocals are panned dead center. Eitherway, fantastic job again, I've actually started my Atonalis inspired song already... but I reckon it'll be a while before it gets finished though. Check out my latest song called 25 Minutes in a Japanese Restaurant (Readers Digest Version) (MJRF)

the space bar key found me...... ..... i was just sittin' there one day, and it said....."hello, i'm a space bar key" ..... being taken by it's usefullness and grace, i firmly struck it and said....." good to meet 'ya!" ........ i put the friggin' name in as i usually do, but MJ automatically put the spaces in...... weird. thanks for the words, they are always welcome........ well techically there is a little more than one progression...... but yeah, i didn't give enough consideration to the stereo field...... that should probably change......i've just been trying to write and arrange very quickly....... so i suppose something is gonna get neglected....... thanks again man...... and i always look forward to hearing your tracks.......... Check out my latest song called lit with a wet match.

__--__--____---- Great vocals, yeah... everything else was top notch, as usual. Someone needs to make an abstract, sci fi noir thriller based on your tunes.... a totally atonlais inspired wash of intense imagery. Check out my latest song called Gossamer dissected

Powerful, driving, intelligent, thought-provoking, evocative Wonderful expansiveness, inventiveness (especially the gargling and use of close-far effects). The middle part (right before the space and lyrics changes) could have used mode melodic use of the synth strings, a sort of melodramatic film score moment (think Batman Begins), in my ears, becuz this section was the only one that seemed a little dull and out of balance for me. But I really dug this, could be my favorite so far. Powerful, driving, intelligent, thought-provoking, evocative. Check out my latest song called Forge A New Life (MJRF)

wonderful production job - I really enjoyed the restrained use of beats
