Sounds great. Modern. Levels et al all good.

I couldn't tell exactly what was being sung though!? I think I heard 'EeeeOooooArrrrrrErrrrr' or something similar. Ah well. It seemed to rhyme.

Take care.

Yeah &mdash 02/19/07 - 05:07:41 PM
- its a bit cranky I have to admit.It was a bit like taking a beer can and trying to fashion a galleon out of it but only resulting in a sort of tinny boat thing even though you put alot of work into it.Haha - if that makes any sense? Thanks RG

Sweepy &mdash 02/07/07 - 03:35:05 PM
Well, this was an enjoyable robot. I dig the stuff going on, the phasery sweeps and the groove. Cool!

Sweeping is one thing I am really good at - they even pay me to do it! For a naff 2nd hand mini Yamaha keyboard I was suprised at how much you could change the oscillators,it was only a kids thing.Lucky I'm still a kid!

Cool tune. &mdash 02/07/07 - 07:02:32 PM
Nice arrangement. I liked the gritty sound of the main synth. Thanks for posting.

Sweet &mdash 02/08/07 - 06:28:15 PM
That's pretty awesome stuff. The synth at the begginning was badass. Plus it's from 1992. That's freakin crazy man.

Elvis &mdash 02/19/07 - 05:22:32 PM
Yeah where was the Elvis on this one? One minut I had him here next thing I know he was back in the pub doing the splits to some guy strumming 'Brown Eyed Girl' in the corner.That may sound surreal but this does actually happen where I live!

Hi ! &mdash 02/11/07 - 04:50:02 AM
Due to Curry fine ears, I've listen to all your songs. This one is not my favourite, while it has all the qualities I've found in your work : great sense of melody and solid, or maybe simply instinctive, knowledge of music. The rest in just question of taste. Your voice is great, and I have _loaded four or five of your songs. Keep on nurturing our delicate ears, please, you're one of the most talented guy around !

Same here... &mdash 02/11/07 - 02:13:07 PM
...due to Curry's fine ears... This is really cool. Since I haven't heard you before, I am just going to start from the top and climb down the ladder.
This has a very good melody, and is a good mix. The ending is superb. Lot's of stuff in here: Hancock, Kraftwerk and Nintendo. :) This is very good! /Mikki
